Francel de Haillenarte haillenarte

[harlequinofhate]

I really love your Fran. You bring a fairly minor character to life in a vibrant way and it is always interesting to see your interpretation of how he'd react to things because, to me, they always ring true.

[haillenarte]

thank you!! i often worry that others might find him overly emotional but i do put a lot of thought (too much?!) into what he says and why he does the things that he does, and i often agonize over his dialogue so i am glad he seems Good and Realistic to you *。ヾ(｡>ｖ<｡)ﾉﾞ*。

I'll admit I don't know much about Francel, being canonblind to FFXIV, but I enjoy seeing all of your tags with him. I like his at-turns sassy and melancholy personality, and I think his voice is super consistent and strong. I might not know anything about him but I'm glad we have you in game!

[haillenarte]

eeeeee thank you!! i bask in your praise ヾ(´▽｀)ゝ
i am glad that if any impression of francel has been impressed upon people it is that he is snarky and sad

let's be real there are like actual players of ffxiv who know nothing about him (a lot of Francel Things come from bonus material and optionally visiting him at various points throughout the story when you probably wouldn't think to visit him at all) so YOU'RE GOOD, YOU'RE GOLDEN, IT'S FINE, i live in this minor character hell but i'm glad you enjoy it!!!

jumps on the bandwagon a lil bit but omg i was like shocked to find out that francel is kind of a minor character? i never woulda guessed from the way you play him!! he's so sassy and i'm having a lot of fun with him and charlie, ahaha. nerds. but really, mega kudos to you for bringing a lil dude to the forefront and putting so much thought into his character.

[haillenarte]

bawww thank you mippins!!

yeah, francel is a pretty minor character, and he doesn't do all that much in the game itself... but it's my opinion that he has more personality than a lot of ffxiv's major characters specifically because he's not involved in the major plot, so as a result he spends less of his time talking about politics and more about it talking about things that matter To Him rather than to The World (and, also, his bonus story is Super Emotional and Sad whereas most of the other characters' stories are rather factual and bland and i'm rambling sorry sorry!!)

ANYWAY i find it very flattering that people think he is more important than he is because of how i rp him HA HA HA and i hope i continue to deliver well-rounded and three-dimensional frans (*´﹃`*)

[mightyratslayer]

oh omg hey that's a really good point? idk man it's so cool that you've put so much thought and energy into playing him YOU ARE DOING A GOOD <3

[swatsflies]

You seem pretty cool and I really like Francel! He's so cute.

[staytunednext]

I'm pretty canonblind to Francel, but you write him in such a way that it makes it impossible not to want to know more. His speech patterns seem that they would be ludicrously difficult to nail down and yet your tags always have this amazingly effortless feel as if you just know what the character would say. I want more CR with you and I intend to get it, because wowza you're awesome.

[haillenarte]

thank you!!
ALAS YOU'VE ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD, TALKING ABOUT FRANCEL

i pretty much spend way too much time considering his speech patterns because, yeah, in general, ffxiv is a difficult canon to play from because all the characters talk in that fakespearean way that's difficult for a lot of rpers to nail Just Right. francel in particular is kind of weird in that he doesn't always talk in that fancy arch tone; he's oddly prone to more casual and blunt statements (he says stuff like "sometimes it's just so damn hard," which would seem out of place in the mouths of, say, aymeric or estinien)

so if i ever seem to get lazy with my thous and thines
THAT IS WHY.

but you didn't ask me to defend myself, i'm just talking about this because I Get Excited
i love francel's way of speaking
anyway i'm very grateful for your praise and i'm happy that you want to know more about francel
i too hope we can get more CR with each other ♡ლ(´ڡ`ლ)♡
