I'm so disappointed he is using both -kun and -chan appellate to describe the same person. They imply two different things and while one or the other would be acceptable, using both is triggering me something fierce... which may be the point.

whats the diff between -kun, -chan, and -san?
27
-kun is for younger boys or in situations where you want to tease, diss, or put a guy beneath you, or for endearment. -chan is the same but for girls. -san is a general-use common courtesy style honorific for both sexes that is roughly equivalent to Mr. and Mrs.
-kun and -chan also imply greater closeness than acquaintances but not close enough to drop honorifics entirely, as I understand it.
62
More or less. You can use -chan for boys, too, but you would generally pick one or the other, not both unless you were being very playful with someone you know well, and even then you wouldn't generally use them same sentence/statement like here.

It's also used in offices by superiors to display their, well, seniority, so a boss would call his employee "-kun"

WEEB, I FOUND ONE

I'M GETTIN' ME MALLET!

See I thought that too, but then I realised that the writer is actually using it to subtly indicate that the way they think of Cid has changed over the course of their experience with him, such that instead of a junior colleague, they now consider him to be an adorable "pet" of sorts. Why someone would use either of those honorifics for Cid, a grown-ass man, is beyond me, but I suppose that just means I have failed to fully grasp what is clearly a deep and heart-wrenching moment of character development. Nyaa.

Isn't Cid in his 20s, he just grew a beard?
2
He's in his early 30's, but a guy in his 20's would still be an adult??

I fuckint love how this has the energy of “ah fuck auto correct

Is this a fucking Prae macro?
59
I was thinking Castrum, when you have to wait like five minutes for Cid to show up (uh disclaimer I've never played through new Castrum so idk if it's different now) and start the fight on that one magitek on the ramp.They probably macro'd that to be silly while that long wait is happening.
48
New Castrum is different now, you only need to wait for Cid like two seconds max

And I thought my "Cutscene's over, time to pause your po...pular Netflix show" was raunchy.

Why did you censor your own name?

Exfuck the scuse me

How has no one addressed the most glaring issue with this?
This idiot put "Machina" instead of "Magitek".

Machina is a word used in-universe to describe garlean war machines, it's acceptable

Really upset by the implication that they have to say that so often they have it locked and ready to go at any time.
Bad things happen to your brain when you run too many prae
Are you saying that you don't have an entire keybind setup dedicated solely to ERP macros?
I think they mean the chat channel hotkey. By default they're like Alt+V or whatever and they let you send straight to a chat without having to change the channel.
