my journey to you, halfway point

so I'm in the last scenes of ep14 of my journey to you, and either the costume designer got all the orders mixed up, or there's subtle foreshadowing in what I'm seeing. idk, so not even sure if these are spoilers.

once the two brides move into their respective new households (thus beginning the 'part of the family' of their story), YWS' colors become predominantly black and red (switching between one as main color and other as accent), with gold embroidery. SGQ's colors are mostly pale blue and white, with silver embroidery.

within the family, the dominant colors range from black, to midnight blue, to cobalt blue, and the distinction is mostly gold vs silver. GZY's colors run to the almost-black end, sometimes with cobalt accents, and usually with gold (though the gold is sometimes less accent and more a full third color). GSJ's colors are slightly lighter, denim-to-cobalt shades, with silver. His colors aren't just subtler, but also more balanced. GZY's colors run tend to be undiluted, while GSJ's are delicately intricate.

(all this with the caveat that some of the blues that GZY wears are so deep that with the show's lighting, it's hard to tell whether it's an intense blue or actually black. Same goes for GYZ, too.)

GYZ's colors lean darker, often midnight blue with silver; in a few outfits it's shades of dark blue, but still with silver. GZS is the only family member (so far) with red, though hers is closer to burgundy compared to YWS' crimson. the backdrop to that burgundy tends to be as dark as GZY's black or midnight blue.

the Xue group stick to pale blues and whites. the only other obvious outsider is MWJ, whose main color is deep green, a secondary color of hunter green, and mustard/gold accents.

-- and then everything shifts in the second half of ep14.

when GSJ talks with GYZ, GSJ's colors remain the same, but GYZ's under-robe/sickbed colors have shifted from that near-black midnight blue to a lighter shade almost matching GSJ's outer-robes. YWS' colors remain the same, but SGQ's colors have switched to white with subtle gold accents.

in the meeting with MWJ, only YWS and GSJ retain their color schemes. MWJ has switched to white with gold accents (curiously, just like SGQ), while GZS's burgundy has become secondary to midnight-blue robes.

and then there's GZY, suddenly in several layers of medium to pale blue, with white under-robes, and accented in silver embroidery. Plus his embroidery's got fuzzy/fluffy elements when most of what I recall him wearing previously has much cleaner/sharper edges.

and finally, a fully-dressed GYZ in his meeting with SGQ, in blues lighter than his usual scheme, and much closer to GSJ's color scheme.

(I'm not counting the second-trial outfits, which look almost ritualistic in white with what looks like gold and silver embroidery, and fluffy accents. maybe that was a combination chosen to show the trial takes both GZY and YWS out of their usual routines.)

current theory I'm going on is that the stronger the blue (as in, the clearer it is, vs so dark it could-be-black or so light it could-be-white), the stronger the character's ties to the family. which means both GZY and GSJ are deeply loyal, but their accents (gold vs silver) are where they differ. which, okay, fits their oppositional characterizations.

frex, GZS is regularly in her dark burgundy shade, but when it looks like the family needs to close ranks, suddenly her colors are dominated by midnight blue. the white-with-gold makes me suspicious that MWJ and SGQ have an agreement (much like MWJ had with YWS), and there's more to their 'accidental stabbing' than either is telling.

the question is whether their color schemes will go back to normal, and if so, when that happens, and what that might signify for what changed to put everything back. though one thing I do suspect was that GZY's colors shifted to reminiscent of the xue branch to signal he'd mastered the three sword forms -- and that YWS' adoption of the same fuzzy/fluffy embroidery accents on her white gown is meant to hint at the start of a shift in her loyalties.

I'm so grateful that the only GG fans that care about the light novels are the ones that can be normal about things because Lightning the Argent goes from the rawest scenes of carnage imaginable to Ky Kiske doing something mildly religious like offering a short, silent, prayer for someone that got mangled to death by WMD dragons, and I just know that, in the wrong hands, those brief religious moments would generate the most annoying goddamn memes you could ever imagine

#textpost #I have a mountain of beef with catholicism specifically and am negative percent religious #But the punchline to so many Ky jokes is just “ha ha catholic” like come onnnnn get creative #Religion on its own isn't bad. Look instead at how an individual interacts with it and judge from there #Untapped potential in how Ky's consistently depicted praying to Mary/an unspecified female saint for example #Actually... How come I've never seen anyone analyze that aspect of his belief? #His parents died when he was pretty young (iirc) so their influence couldn't've been too much of a contributing factor in that #Maybe he was closer to his mom in the brief time he had with his parent(s)? #Almost all of the Holy Order knights/members they've ever shown have been male too #So I wonder if maybe it's more like the calm/uncombative protective presence of a sacred woman is comforting to him? #It's definitely a stark contrast to the types of things he's generally exposed to in his daily life in any case #Another interesting contrast is how much Sol DOESN'T like religion #He's got some sarcastic lines about God and stuff even pre-Gearification. Wonder what the story with that is... #Anyway Ky only expressing his religion in private moments is interesting to me too #I can't think of an instance where he ever forced it on someone else or tried to explain something as happening just because God willed it #He's smart and logical and yet he still has this spiritual component... #Man is his character is complex. Studying this blond kid under a microscope...

oops, got myself thinking again about byan having a little hoard of weird and random trinkets and shiny things hidden away under their bed in the same way that some cats have collections of bottle caps under furniture.

like, none of it is particularly meaningful and they don't wear any of the jewelry that's under there, but they like to pull it all out once in a while to look at and are always adding more

#there's a lot of jewelry but there's a lot of other shiny things and weirder stuff too #like there's a heart shaped rock they stole from someone in elementary and some pretty feathers they've found on the ground #but then there's also a wrapper from a cute snack they had and a bone from some random animal they found in a park #colourful buttons and cute ribbons and a trading card from a game they've never played #and probably also a pink bottle cap tbh #literally just a random collection of Stuff they like but have no use for #it's a collection they've had to rebuild a few times too #bc staff/caretakers at the group home(s) would find it all sometimes and throw away whatever looked like junk or trash #tbh it's a collection they still have and add to even after they move in w sol and start sharing a bed #and they still keep it under the bed ofc bc it's habit at this point and honestly I'm not so sure they've even told him it's there 🤔 #...im rambling bc I'm kinda buzzed but like. idk I love byan and their pile of random shit #I think part of what got them started was want to actually Have Things bc they grew up not having much #and they would ABSOLUTELY get jealous of kids at school who had all kinds of belongings #who could have coherent collections and all the cool toys and shit #so they just started collecting anything that caught their eye #even if it was labels off of bottles or those cheap erasers shaped like animals or food or w/e that don't actually erase anything #and it's a habit that persisted after they started stealing basically anything they wanted/needed #and will continue to persist even once they have a job and money to buy what they want #god I kept rambling even after trying to wrap things up smh #this is the shit I'm talking about when I say I have weirdly specific and detailed thoughts about inane and unimportant aspects of byan #━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ ooc ⋮ don’t @ me.

Dreamer of Dreams

 How important are dreams? Chasing things beyond us sometimes grant us strength to surpass limits, to courageously endure for our vision. Over time a Pirate’s own became misconstrued, failures, losses piled up and his grandeur became murky. Losing a partial, vital piece of essence. Children call them dreams, but upon nurture, it was called Ambition! Without having a strong-self interest, he couldn’t relate or jump the hurdle for others, initially sought.  Now rectification came to retrieve what was lost. The First-Stage to Healing.

By plucking his lost spirit within obscurity, a reversion of his zenith came. That horrendous fog vaporized to magnificent sunlight. Matured figure of the boy-to-be, extended his arm’s out, it was time to go home. In their embrace, unbridled warmth quaked from a reunion of resolve. A wide-spread grin surfaced externally Captain’s injuries stung, ached, nevertheless something swelled within himself, the belief to achieve, in absolution. He sprung a bounce to his soles, kip-up. With finesse, began reassembling his own mind-games against his Skull Brethren, since started off this way, donning his original attire, fetching dual-blade’s of Hingan that were sworn off to prevent incidental death. Black-blood face paint ran across his eyelids, not only repulsing the dead itself; used to aid him in becoming brave that required adversity, now just meant to trigger Sol's distress. Sol took aim to shoot-down Captain’s butterfly who came from the cabin’s keyhole to cause misdirection, the spirit-guide, named Perish, fluttered between his limbs, barely evading swatting and squishing attempts. Soon found himself pulverized by a door that flew off the hinges suddenly as the Seeker sprinted with full on collision from a drop-kick, then surfboarding it, trampling his rib-cage. “Always told ye t’ fix that blimey door!” Giving a befitting punishment to the Shipwright, squished with the cabin’s door on him, Kuro kicked Sol’s silver-wind pistol into the waters, then blitzed towards climbing to the top-mast where their sail-flag awaited. Mistbeard’s mask still onlooking their pirate-battle. The ex-Garlean conscript, struggled temporarily, wind knocked out of him, before angrily following pursuit, spare pistol <Live Free> brought out taking shots at the climbing cat-folk, who intelligibly utilized line-of-sight climbing alongside the mast’s with his heritage-expertise, forcing the gun-wielder to pursue, climbing up to the top with sheer agitation, this would be done in a duel-fashion now.

Atop the mast, where they’d wage their last-sequence as blood-brothers turned enemies. Sol finally arrives behind in his pursuit, seeing Captain more closely. He was unnerved, a deplorable golden-crest smile was on him, the markings of jolly, complete fulfillment, it always brought him anger. As if a Sun was looking beneath him, nothing he could do would discourage the heat, his traditional means to kill, erase, all left meaningless in pursuit. His brow twitched into a frown. That deviant-rogue staring across him spoke, “Thanks t’ ye mate. I found irreplaceable value in me. I’m afraid… I’ll b’ stealing n’ cucking ye, again of something. Could race to see who reaches ascension firstly or lastly there! Like ol’ times… But I’ve got t’ slay your dark-cloud, it’s cramping my vibes.” Candidly bringing back a memento, it’s like time-flowed back, to not-long-ago, they used to rock-paper-scissors for who rigged, or climbing up on the masts, doing contests to one-up another in brotherly competition. “Also – I’ve decided. I’ll become a King.” Calmness and overwhelming peace said with a matter-of-fact from the Scoundrel’s following words, after the storm-breeze howled.

Sol, overtaken by envy, frustratingly growled, “...Y-You can’t just decide that!” Where did this abundance of confidence come from? Teeth grinding and grating together blood rushing into his temple. His concentration was caught lacking and those winds nearly took him off balance, but Miqo'te remained perfectly still…

Energy shifted in an instantaneous, an explosiveness out-cried from Captain with a thunderous shout of his declaration. A Challenge against ALL of Destiny, Fate, anything in-between was committed, throughout the rumbling tides and passed air. “I’ll become King ov’ th’ LIVING!” A dream so far-above, outlandish, impossible echoed. Jolly laughter tantalizingly followed, against Sol’s ire, a splitting image of their own Founder was reminded. To know, Living is to understand the existence of infinity! There was no-one way to live. This particular Pirate knew this and had connection to everything that resided between the spectrum's, life to death, and was born from a Mother’s Light and Father’s Shadow. Be that as it may, he ambitiously stared at the path of transcendence. Unwavering determination highlighting his visage. Upon his crew and varied people across in adventuring, to most-natural or supernatural, soul’s encountered.  All uplifting and inspiring him to heights leaving their imprints, scars, traces upon his singular vessel, these were the stupendous keepsakes, to preserve! Wanting this stead. Survival was instinctual because this was his perceived ultimate treasure. A challenge traversed the realm, shaking with a bewilderment of unyielding certainty. An individual-cloaked frozen-between-time peered over to the skies and gave halt from galloping.

They who stood at the highest summit, a GIANT, woke from disruption. Hinted with Captain’s Presence, awakening. Enraged Sol, lashed out in foul spite, fear, quivering and whining jealousy, “Nonsense. Die, Die, Die!” Pulling his trigger, reloading with rapid-fire, pupils went bloodshot from crazed-fury. The amber-eye, determined Seeker, predicted the trajectory of every fired-shot just by familiarizing Sol’s aim, countering by sliding against bullets with his dual-blades shield, deflecting and parrying him, to having them shred against his flesh in minor grazes, fearlessness, continued forth closing distance. Where Sol was useless in. They battled akin to this when pint-sized deckhands, back then using bb-guns or slingshots versus wooden kendo, this entire scene felt like reversed-time. Captain with a blade-rising upwardly in the air, spun his blade with realignment allowing glaring-rays, letting what all others were seeing. Sunlight had broken throughout the canopies of those undesirable clouds, vanquishing them. His steel-reflecting light, brought a blindness causing the Raen to misfire, his last shot in the chamber, the Seeker predicting this response, taking advantage of his discombobulated state, gave a devastating cross-slash against the Raen’s bare-chest, secondary dual-strike following-through with momentum to strike his gun-slinging wrist, forcing a disarming in one flawless-swoop.

Smth smth, Sonic being the Sun and. Ough. I'm thinking so much thoughts wow

[sonknuxadow]

see i can understand why some people are annoyed with just how Much a lot of the more recent idw sonic stuff focuses on new characters when some game characters arent appearing as often but i dont get why people are mad over new characters being introduced and having stories about them in general. like why are you reading the comic based on the Hedgehog With 5 Million Friends franchise and getting mad when he has 5 million friends

#also some characters arent allowed to be used in idw sonic. or they are and sega is just really picky about how they should be written #also some pre existing characters are in weird situations that make it harder to have them around all the time #like knuckles having to guard the master emerald and silver being from the future #and blaze being from another dimension AND having a lot of responsibilities as a princess and the sol emeralds' guardian #so sometimes it is just easier to use one of the new characters. or make another new character. or whatever #and some stories just cant really be told without making a new character #like i dont think belle or surge and kit's stuff could have been done with pre existing characters #again i understand being annoyed with how much some of the more recent stuff focuses on the new characters but #i dont think new characters being made and allowed to play a role in the story is an issue? #its no different from new characters being made for the games

[fembutchboygirl]

I just learned something so incredibly fucked up

#i am trembling #i cannot let this enable my issues with paranoia further! haha! oh my fucking god #im not joking btw im literally physically trembling. how did this happen oh god oh GOD nononono dont let it get to you #i just need to know. was someone like. double dealing? was someone telling him about it #i wouldnt give a shit if they were stalking me online occasionally (well id care a little bit but honestly itd just be kinda fucked) #but if someone was telling him about me and my personal stuff? #stop. i dont want to think about it. i dont want to think it happened. i have to get this out of my head #but still. absolutely fucking deranged. #ESPECIALLY bc apparently he's been saying i “made him think he was abusive'' and that doing that was shitty of me bc he actually #just has bpd?????? #sol if you're reading this listen closely: one of my best friends has bpd. diagnosed and everything. so shut the fuck up #much like you've been saying i blamed my adhd for being neglectful (read: not meeting your sky-high standards for Truly Loving You 24/7) #you cannot blame your bpd for what a shit person you've been #repeatedly asking you to work on a flaw that's been hurting me is not telling you you're abusive you fucking prick #get a life‚ learn to care about other people away from what they can do for YOU‚ #and LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE. #p.s. imagine being mad that people who were friends with both you and your partner didnt suddenly cut the other one off after you broke up #like actually angry at these people. what the actual fuck. you're like a divorced parent upset that their child still talks to their ex-wife #my posts

[hirokiyuu]

i do often think abt the fact that instance is the only medical professional on the ship bc besk is dead. i often think abt how between them the burden of the colony's health was on their shoulders and then besk died and now it was just instance's job. now she's got a fourteen year old talking about aliens and a twelve year old having a breakdown and shaving all her hair and it's up to Her to deal with it. her, of all people,

#instance is aware she doesnt have a good bedside manner i think it comes up in medbay stuff #before besk died she didnt need it............. #i think abt this stuff a lot. god. besk/instance............. #teenexo stuff #i was a teenage exocolonist spoilers #honestly i think instance fucks up a lot but i do get why she makes the choices she does in delusion run #in some ways i have more sympathy for her there than i do for some of her other choices LOL #like of course from the protags pov its not good but also like #sol nearly dies. multiple times. #sol is constantly sneaking out of the walls on a brand new planet htey know nothing about #and is justifying it w/talking abt seeing the future and having dreams of things theyve done before and like #idk! theyre putting themself in deeply dangerous situations as a result #i get why instance is trying to do everything she can to mitigate that #do i think its good? no. do i think literally anyone shouldve picked up a therapy course before then? yeah #however. however. i do have sympathy. #this got away from me lmao. god #sorry for liking women with problems do you still think im sexy

[sol1056]

the background is as fascinating as the foreground, maybe more

a few things of note about the actual history behind LltG:

1. the historical first emperor of the Eastern Han (Emperor Guangwu) did have a wife he dearly loved, who he married first. he also had a second wife, a political alliance to gain access to the 2nd wife’s warlord-father’s armies.

In AD 26, Emperor Guangwu was prepared to create an empress, and he favored his first love, Yin. However, Yin had not yet had a son by that point, and she declined the empress position and endorsed Guo. Emperor Guangwu therefore made Guo empress and her son Prince Jiang crown prince. [wikipedia]

2. after 16 or so years, the empress was deposed, but it sounds like less “behead or exile you” and more like “amicable divorce”. Yin became the 2nd empress -- and seems like she was downright allergic to her family gaining any political power due to her position. like, she practically outlawed even the idea of promotions or raises for her family, and was a strong supporter of her son’s wife b/c her son’s wife chose to set the same rule.

honestly, between those two facts, I get the impression of a woman who a) loved her husband and trusted him, b) wanted him to succeed, c) was incredibly politically pragmatic, and d) possibly didn’t really want all the hassle of being empress, thanks. any way you look at it, it’s an unusual arrangement and implies both some pretty strong trust and transparency between husband and 1st wife, and again with 2nd wife/empress.

probably not always the most comfortable relationship(s) but a sign of three people who understood the price of getting to where they were, peace-wise, and choosing political peace over personal comfort.

Also unique among emperors in Chinese history was Emperor Guangwu's combination of decisiveness and mercy. He often sought out peaceful means rather than bellicose means of putting areas under his control. He was, in particular, one rare example of a founding emperor of a dynasty who did not kill, out of jealousy or paranoia, any of the generals or officials who contributed to his victories after his rule was secure. [wikipedia]

4. also, his first choice for crown prince was... either honest enough that he probably wasn’t the best choice, or just as disinclined to deal with politics as his mother(s) may’ve been:

Not having the heart to depose mother and son, Emperor Guangwu initially left Guo's son, Jiang, as crown prince.  However, Crown Prince Jiang, realizing that his position was precarious, repeatedly offered to step down.  In AD 43, Emperor Guangwu agreed... [wikipedia]

I mean, I get that China’s not about to okay anything that shows the development of a polygamous marriage (it seems to be okay as long as it’s backgrounded more and is already in place when the story starts), but the entire situation between those three people -- hell, even just the kind of people they must’ve been -- seems to me to be a fascinating story and one that deserves its own sixty-episode historical drama.

It's kinda funny.

I talk about how I don't want people to misunderstand Solita as a character. There's no easy answer to her. Where do the sins of an abuser end and the sins of the victim begin? There's no simple path forward. You can't just separate Solita from Deity, there's a long, convoluted path she has to walk to be able to walk away.

But Solita is also meant to be misunderstood. She's purposely misleading. She's a habitual liar, and not even honest to anyone, not even herself. She's confusing and unpredictable, and shapes herself to what others want her to be. A friend, an enemy, or anything in between. She's approachable and yet unreachable. An actress in life.

#I Cut My Teeth on Secondhand Sentiments || Character info #i guess people just misunderstand her the wrong way #which is a weird thing to say but like?? #i was thinking about where the sins of the parent end and the sins of the child begin bc thats something thats really prevalent in one of m #favorite characters #and i realize its a theme i find myself drawn to #and also i finally watched vio.let ev.ergarden recently and the whole thing with vio.let having to carry that guilt she has whether or not #she did it willingly/fully understanding is a theme that resonates a lot with Solita #just because deity forces her to do stuff doesnt mean that there isnt blood on her hands. #What happens to the people she had to step over without Deity's prompting? The lives she took of her own volition? #but anyway thats rambling about that one specific part of this post #Solita is complicated to her core and should never have an easy answer #if my inspo i get from O.shi n.o ko says anything lmao #A.i is not a simple character and just gives big sol vibes. a girl who wears a mask and lies as a twisted form of love

[sol-draws-sometimes]

I hate that I like alternative fashion(not just the colloquial use of the word, as in anything alternative from mainstream), because I want to wear ALL of them.

Currently my two main styles are my everyday(pretty normie) gay ™ button downs/patterned shirts and my vintage/history inspired clothing(I don’t have as much as I’d like but when I had longer hair, a wet set and red lip went a long way).

But I also DO like alt™ fashion. I know all the cultures are different but I think goth and a little bit of punk are the ones that interest me the most! I just love the alt look of it on other people and I want to see if I like on myself! I just feel like I really don’t know where to begin for the goth stuff. Also yes ,I know the culture is more than the clothing and I’m also interested in those parts too, this post is just focusing on fashion.

I’m also interested in Lolita fashion! I don’t think it’s something I’d do for everyday fashion, but I always keep coming back to it, so I’d love to try it out! Mostly what attracts me to the style is that I already like historical fashion, but I don’t know if there’s a particular sub style I’m interested in. I like when other people do Sweet but doesn’t feel like my vibe. I could maybe see myself doing goth Lolita or more classic/traditional Lolita. Though really, in my mind there’s only one coord idea that I want to do, but it doesn’t really fall neatly into any of the mainstream Lolita styles(I guess pirate would be the closest? there are some JSKs I’ve looked at that could fit my idea).

I also really want to get more into medieval/renaissance fair fashion or more piratey/vampire/vaguely 17th century fashion. I have my vintage style that I want to expand but I do want to play around with more time periods and different ways of modernizing them!

I actually really like my current styles but there’s so much I want to try.

In conclusion I WANT TO UNLOCK ALL THE FASHIONS!!!!!

#sol talks #alt fashion #lolita fashion #history bounding #I’m this close to going to the lace market and buying a blouse #problem is I live in a hot climate but most of the blouses on there are polyester(which isn’t the best for my weather) #though I do find Lolita blouses really do hit the right spot for a modernized version of frilly old-timey clothes #if you’re curious about the coord idea basically I want to do a celistal pirate kinda vibe #I’d probably use AP Magical Horscope Navy as base or something in a similar vibe #or something like the Navy zipper Jsk from the Time Lag World(metamorphosis) #AP’s Astro Regimen could work too #I’m very baby to Lolita so idk how popular or good these JSKs are #I know people don’t like the newer AP stuff #just need a navy and gold jsk perferiably with celistal/metal pattern #but yah I think the idea has potential #the Jsk would need to pair nicely with a more pirate vibe so that I could wear a pirate hat as the headpiece #idk like a treasure plant inspired coord #but maybe that’s a bad coord idk #it feels too experimental and Idk if I have the best eye for styling coords #but regardless of whether or not I ever make a coord #I have to buy myself a blouse cause they’re PERFECT for all my historical/history bounding styles I want to do #might buy some black lipstick as well to experiment with more goth styles #anyways that’s enough rambling about fashion for one day

After some deliberation I've decided to give Babel a supernatural verse >:3c

I can kind of picture one for Salva coming together, too, but I might actually have to rewatch some of it to remember Hunter life details & things.

Ngl that last chunk of Strive’s story was so hard to pay attention to.

#like after the disappointment was Sol “““vs””” Asuka I kinda tapped out mentally #then I remembered with dread that we still had Chaos and I-no’s stuff to deal with and like #all I could think that this would be a lot cooler if Sol still had his powers #or even better if the climax was dedicated solely to Sol vs Asuka #seriously I was robbed of not one but two all out final showdown’s between Sol’s oldest foes all within 30 minutes of each other #wild #in any event I’m somewhat happy Sol got a happy ending but like this? idk about that chief #Axl quote entirely intentional #guilty gear strive #guilty gear
