I'm probably the only one suffering from Shirogane regret but I guess I'll share this one here anyway:

I wish I had fallen asleep. Or went to work. Or SE just plain didn't introduce a relocation feature. There was no way I could have afforded to transfer to Shirogane otherwise.

Ward 9, Plot 26 in the Lavender Beds was my baby. I stumbled into it whilst exploring the Beds for the first time, bought it then and there even though it took all of my gil.

Then I spent a year building it up with my own two hands: I motivated myself to finally tackle crafting by making the furniture that I would use to decorate my house myself.

Eventually I saved up enough money to buy a set of Paissa walls for myself and I was happy.

Stormblood came along and so did Shirogane but I didn't care. I had my house. But then the temptation just kept piling up.

"Relocation will be a thing."

But it's probably just for FCs.

"It's for everyone."

But I'll lose my precious Paissa walls.

"You can keep your Paissa walls."

But I don't want to get involved in the housing rush.

And then the night before the patch, I had nothing better to do than sit on this subreddit and watch the housing fever consume everyone. And I sat myself down at the aethertye in Kugane and logged off.

"I probably won't even get one. I'll be 1,000th in the queue. I'll fall asleep first."

I did fall asleep. Then my game failed to patch. Then I almost missed the end of maintenance.

But I still got in, got a house and now I regret it. I want the house I built back. I came so close so many times to just not getting involved and somehow it all worked out to get me the house I didn't want.
