A familiar face?
Perhaps you've seen this issue somewhere. Perhaps you recognise the cover girl. That seems as good a reason as any to introduce yourself.

THE EDITOR'S LETTERDARLING / 02—03
A STUDY IN CONTRADICTIONS
Sweetness
has a shadow.
Some faces belong on a magazine cover. Others make you wonder what happened just beyond its edges. Welcome to the Millie Lottie edition: a little candlelight, a little cream knit, and an expression that leaves the last word to you.
We are fond of a beautiful contradiction. Soft textures against gothic glass. A warm glow in a dark room. A pretty face beneath a rather terrible headline.
“Pretty faces.
Terrible intentions.”
This issue is an invitation to look closer. The photograph sets the scene; the next encounter is yours to write.
With affection, Darling
Soft light. Sharp typography. Unanswered questions.

The rumour mill.
Conversation starters, supplied with a raised eyebrow.
Innocence, allegedly.
The headline asks a question. Your character may have an opinion. Bring your curiosity; leave room for her answer.
Start a conversation
“Should I believe everything I read about you, darling?”
One more sitting.
A portrait can be the beginning of a scene. A photographer, an admirer, or someone with an eye for a good cover might have a proposal.
Offer a scene
“If you're ever in need of another portrait, I have an idea.”
BEHIND THE PAGESOUT OF CHARACTER
A NOTE FROM THE MARGINS
Off the record.
DARLING is a character showcase and Gpose magazine for Millie Lottie in FINAL FANTASY XIV.
The fiction stays in the fiction.
Headlines are editorial flavour. RP prompts are invitations to collaborate, not proof of a character's history or permission to assume it.
A scene starts with a conversation.
Discuss the premise and boundaries with the player before treating a suggested hook as shared history. In-character impressions and out-of-character knowledge belong in separate places.
An unofficial fan character project. FINAL FANTASY XIV belongs to its respective rights holders.
