Emotes in *FFXIV* can be unlocked through various means such as completing specific quests, engaging in Mogtome events, or other in-game activities. However, some special emotes like the Blow Bubbles emote are available for purchase through the Mog Station.
The whimsical Blow Bubbles emote celebrates the arrival of spring and in-game events like Little Ladies Day. To unlock it, head over to the Mog Station item store. After logging in with your account details, navigate to the ‘Optional Items’ tab under ‘Additional Services’. You should find the Blow Bubbles emote prominently displayed in the first row of New Items. For players in the US, this emote costs $7.00 USD. Note that it’s a single-character purchase and cannot be gifted to others.
Once you’ve made your purchase, log back into *FFXIV* and visit a Delivery Moogle in any major city or hub. Alternatively, if you or your Free Company has a house with mail delivery, check there. Your emote should be ready for pickup once the mail icon appears on your HUD.

After collecting your new emote from the nearest moogle delivery point, locate the Ballroom Etiquette – Bubble Diversions item in your inventory. Use this item to permanently unlock the Blow Bubbles emote for your character. Keep in mind, this is a character-specific unlock, not account-wide.
To use the emote, open your Emote menu under the Social tab. Scroll through the General emotes until you find Blow Bubbles, typically near the bottom of the list. You can add it to your Favorites for easy access or place it on your hotbar for convenience.
When activated, your character will blow clouds of bubbles in two rotations before stopping. While the emote isn’t continuous, it adds a fun and cute element to your gameplay, perfect for capturing memorable moments.
