RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - RiniKett - 10-11-2016
Rini isn't embarrassed by much...She's usually very blunt and accepting of whatever she does or sees...However, there are small things she does that she isn't exactly proud of such as writing in a diary, writing music, and practicing the piano.
Also...This comes to mind...Can't help it.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Taejin - 11-10-2016
Being the extreme introvert he is, Taejin is embarrassed by pretty much anything done in front of another living thing. That said he has a few stand-outs:Â
- He has a weakness for the adorable, as ironic(ally fitting?) as that might sound considering he's a Lala himself. If it's cute, he will gush. If someone catches him gushing... well, he has a gun.
- Though his SOLE berserk button is mistreatment of women, he has been known to take advantage of his stature to "appreciate" female adventures. Luckily, as a large majority tend to flaunt their gods-given gifts (GlamoursÂ
), nobody seems to notice, or care. He still regrets it.
- Hugs. I kid you not. As his emotional state fluctuates primarily based on the mood of the people around him, a nice warm embrace does WONDERS. But he'll never admit that one.

Ahhh what a fun thread, some of these have really made me chuckle!
Publicly Finn will admit to a penchant for nice leather boots, expensive cigarettes and cheap liquor. Also, getting one over on her tall friends.
Privately?
She LOVES secrets. Learning them, keeping them, and teasing people with them.

Hrm . . . publicly ... reading..
What he won't admit, Highlander and Elezen women, boy do they catch his eyes
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - luxemas - 11-19-2016
Romance novels of course~
Given Tali'ra is already a big book nerd that probably isn't all too surprising. But I figure his older brother started giving him such reading material from visits home when he started to reach that age. :y
I imagine he himself has probably attempted to write some of his own, but dare not share them with anyone.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Ren of Many Alts - 11-23-2016
Zedyr's guilty pleasure is a bit difficult to pin down, as he isn't prone to feeling shame about very much. I guess if we define it as something that he enjoys but that he keeps to himself, then his secret pleasure is probably taking care of his hands and nails. He works with his hands most of the day, being a goldsmith, but usually he takes one evening a week to trim and file his nails, clean up his cuticles, buff away any rough patches, and use a cedar-scented concoction that Maayan sends him every so often to keep his skin soft and smooth.
Zhah'ra's secret pleasure is wandering off to the greenest, shadiest spot he can find and simply sitting and being alone for a time. He spends so much of his time being "on" -- being "Flower," performing roles, molding himself to his audience's varying expectations -- and solitude feels like the only way he can try to come back to himself. Something is missing, though.
Selah's secret pleasure is being held and having his hair stroked -- but he doesn't have someone he trusts enough for that currently, and he HATES being patted by random strangers or acquaintances. (Hates it and derives no pleasure from it: he finds it demeaning, and it makes his shoulders go up around his ears -- internally, anyway.) Picking him up without his explicit permission is completely out of the question. As a result, I think some people tend to assume that he doesn't like being touched at all, ever, by anyone. That isn't the case; it just requires a quite high level of trust and understanding for him to be okay with it.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Cecily Jisi - 11-23-2016
Cecily tends to buy a lot of mammets. She loves those little Wind-Ups especially ones based on the Primals, Scions, and other MSQ characters (Read the minions' descriptions. They are all sold in stores, so totally lore-friendly to get them). But she mainly uses them to help her around the workshop as well as try and learn how to give the Primal ones combat capabilities.
But she also buys them because they're super adorable.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Rahferu - 11-24-2016
Rah tends to watch people--being who what he is, he really doesn't know how to socialize.
I'd say he's only really guilty about his natural bloodlust/murder tendencies. While killing someone that was really evil or wronged him feel amazing to him, he knows that murder is wrong and gets torn up about it, even though his other personality usually pirates the control without his permission during the kill.Â
He's also a huge glutton!Â
Again. Because of what he is, he sticks with smaller crystals as his main nom source...but he consumes "normal people" junk food like a mass dessert garbage disposal lmao. Rah can't bake either.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Flora - 11-26-2016
Flora's guilty pleasures are a little guiltier than most, owing to her "omg nice things so sinful! Must roll in dirt and starve self and overwork for Rhalgr!!" attitude XD
Flora loves bread. It's the most magical thing in the world to her. She'll eat a whole loaf before she realizes it, and then feel bad because she was supposed to be fasting till sundown.
She also really likes perfume-- but, being the sort of highlander that is perpetually coated in a thick layer of sweat and grime, she hardly ever feels like she ought to apply any, since it'd be a waste if she just sweat it off.
She also really likes to carve wood and embroider, although she'd be mortified to admit how much time she spends on hobbies like that. A whole hour?? Shame on you, Flora! You should be disciplining your body for Rhalgr!
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Aaron - 11-26-2016
One of Aaron's guilty pleasure is pissing people off when he's bored. Especially if he knows them, he finds it absolutely hilarious inside but won't show it physically (most of his expressions can be simplified to a "whatever") but yeah, best believe when he's taking jabs at someone he's hoping they get mad.
Another one is breaking the forth wall, but that's more an ooc habit but still,
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Illyriana - 12-09-2016
Illyriana's guilty pleasure is cute things. Stuffed animals, baby animals, they send her into a mini-freakout where she can barely contain herself. She has bought so many cute minions and loves stuffed animals. She's afraid to let anyone cause she thinks they'll think shes childish xD
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Mermaid - 12-13-2016
Tsubaki's is a little odd. She has a thing for tall guys or even tall people in general. She's fairly shy and fairly short so the height difference can be intimidating. At the same time it makes her feel strangely justified in the fact she's shy when people are something like two heads taller than her.
She'll also just sit in a tavern and eavesdrop on everyone. She knows it wrong but she just has to.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Berrod Armstrong - 12-13-2016
Dancing. Berrod loves to dance, but he hates the very idea of people finding out.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Jean L - 12-18-2016
Chocobo care.
It's something he's read up about in-depth but would never, ever admit to it. He even bought high quality tools for caring for them. Also how much he knows about plants especially poisonous ones. He really doesn't like people thinking that he's smart for whatever reason.
RE: Your Character and Guilty Pleasures - Raeje - 12-20-2016
Pretty Sure I already mentioned that Raeje's was books. She loves books, old books that smell like they've been gathering dust in the library for a century. Also poetry, and anything steampunk ish. (I know steampunk isn't really a thing in Eorzea, but anything antique,with cogs, keys, goggles, weird clothing all that kind of steampunk style)
Wyta is a 100% punk. A 100% punk drag queen Roe, so of course, he likes girly punk clothes (again, I know punk wasn't a thing, but anything that looks punk ish). He also secretly is obsessed with musicals. Shhhh, don't tell anyone, it will take away some of his edge.
