[Console/Video]

[Oh look, a certain Jedi is actually making a console post instead of stalking everyone else's.]

My apologies for not introducing myself here sooner. To those I haven't already met, my name is Obi-Wan Kenobi.

[Now that, that's done. He has a very important question.]

Does anyone know what 'grasshopper' means?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Quite a name there. Very poetic.

Grasshoppers are large, generally venomous insects. Very unpleasant. Saw a man's leg drop off because one bit him.

[There is a 85% chance Balthier is bullshitting here just for shits and giggles. But you never know when it comes to the wildlife in Ivalice.]

Poetic? I believe you're the first to say that.

[He never thought his name to be anything particularly special. And where he's from, it's not. The idea of giant venomous insects taking people's legs isn't so unusual either. Which shows by his reaction of only being mildly surprised.]

Oh, I see.

There's a certain cadence to it. A certain rhyme.

[Well, clearly this guy was from somewhere similar or at least wasn't easily shocked. Good on him.]

Is there a reason you're on about insects though? You don't strike me as particularly bouncy.

[Clearly he hadn't thought about it like that due to the amused quirk of his lips. The Jedi wasn't really a poet, and to him it was just a name after all.]

The people of Hatal are quite fond of calling me this.

[It was becoming more and more common as word got around. He had been greeted by that name at a restaurant, in passing on the street, even by one of the Dexedi.]
