Hello!
Fernehalwes here.
While I was stuck at my desk all day thinking up names for gear dye colours, Project Manager M was over at the Makuhari Messe convention center putting the final touches on the FINAL FANTASY XIV booth for tomorrow’s big event─the Niconico Chokaigi 2. Color me Rhotano-blue…
She sent me this mail (with pictures):

Hey Ferne,
Hope you’re having fun at your desk thinking up names for gear dye colours. I’m here at the convention center rubbing elbows with the Internet elite.
While the rest of the Square Enix staff were working away, Soken and Bucco were pretending to look busy as they played with the brand-spanking new Surface tablet PCs Microsoft had provided for the show.
I even caught Kuplo Kopo trying to illegally download a recording of Good King Moggle Mog XII. Bad moogle! Bad!
They had all sorts of colourful keyboards you could attach. Kuplo and I liked blue the best. You don’t think they’d notice if one just happened to go missing now, do you? Yeah… They probably would.
Oh, but today wasn’t all fun and games. The guys got serious when it came time for rehearsal, and pulled off the practice performance without a hitch. I’m sure they’ll be more than ready for the main event. JINX!
Alright then. I’m off to wine and dine with the president of some global conglomerate, so I’ll see you tomorrow! Oh wait, I won’t because you’ll be at you desk working on those 200 monster attack names. Toodles!
Project Manager M

I’ll deal with her when she gets back.
