my opinions on the project sekai redesigns
our kids are growing up and entering a new year in high school, which means that they now have completely new designs because thats how idol gacha rhythm games work!!! woo!! and i have Thoughts
im gonna talk about my opinions on all the redesigns from least to most favorite. note that these are not my rankings of the groups themselves lol, thatd be
vbs -> n25 -> mmj & l/n (they’re tied for second) -> wxs
(from least to most favorite)
#5 - MORE MORE JUMP!
ohhh my sweet girls, my precious girls, what did they Do to you.
the blue looks So bad on them. it clashes with minori and airi and feels too samey with shizu and haru. i like their shoes, tho, and i like how airi keeps her trend of her outfit straying just a little bit from the norm.
these outfits just feel so boring and lifeless, compared to their og ones that had a lot more personality and a lot more charm. i dont think the dresses themselves are ugly, in fact i find them quite pretty, but i dont think they suit the girls very well.
also what the fuck is miku wearing lmao (i like her hairstyle tho)
i like all the girls hair accessories tho they’re cute
i hate ranking them last because i love mmj so much but yeah im very disappointed and i honestly prefer their canon outfits that they wear while performing not in the sekai (the ones that their fans helped design in the metamo re:born event that i forgot the name of)
#4 - Leo/need
firstly i wanna say im so happy that honami gets to be pictured with her instrument like the others, and i really like how they positioned saki’s keyboard
i dont hate these designs!! i quite like them actually. they seem more unified and professional, which fits because leo/need is SIGNED with an AGENCY now oh yeah im so proud of them
im sad that ichikas wearing her tie now rip ichikas tie around her wrist you will be missed by me and me only
i really like their new outfits!! the girls look and feel older. im not really vibing with the shade of gray used tho, i wish their uniforms were black or white or a different shade of gray. i also love the pins and buttons on mikus jacket (i actually prefer the shade of gray on the jacket why couldnt the leoneeders be dressed in that shade)
#3 - Wonderlands x Showtime
#ruiturnaround #FREETSUKASAFROMTHEFLAG
mizuki POPPED OFF with these designs (assuming they made them again)
i really love wondershos new look, i just like the other two groups better. nene’s in particular is my favorite (but im biased). i love how professional they look, these new outfits really display this new step that the kids are taking into the world of theatre
so proud for rui for comjng out as nb can he turn around now my artist friends are crying
i adore all of these designs they’re so cute and fun and i really love the new vibe for wondersho as of recently. it seems like colorpale and the fandom are taking them so much more seriously
#2 - Nightcord at 25:00
KANADE HAS BEEN FREED FROM THE CHAIR (but now miku has it. lol.)
guys. guys the - the symbolism. their dresses progress from pure black to gray showing how they’re slowly healing and bettering themselves and miku’s hair is begining to regain its green and the kids have different flowers that have symbolism that other people know way bettee then mine but MAFUYU’S IVY MOTIF AND ENAS NARCISSUS MOTIF ARE BACK BABY real missed chance to give kanade carnations tho. i dont have much to say but WOW i love the new look for the nightcords and i think they’re stunning. will accept zero hate for these guys they look great
also miku has shoes!!!! yes!!!!
#1 - Vivid BAD SQUAD
yeah, i was surprised too at how much i like the vbs designs
i like vbs, sure, but they’ve always been the group that has piqued my interest the least. and ive never been super keen on the designs of the characters
but these designs??? i really like them. a lot. it feels like the kids are really coming into their own, with kohane and toya finding their personal styles, akito refining his, and an paying homage to nagi in hers. they’re becoming the young adult creators and musicians that they’re striving to be. i can really see vbs’s growth in their new designs, and i hope that i can grow to really love them and their story : D
(also mikus design is kind of. all over the place. lmao but i kinda love it)

Starira MBTI IV - Rinmeikan
Seisho
Siegfeld
Frontier
Tamao Tomoe: ISFJ
Bitches be like "can't help being an Si Dom!" *Fixates on a past inferiority complex and lets it define her worth until inferior Ne finally snaps and goes full rambo*
I’d put Tamao up there with Akira in terms of characters who have grown the most throughout the game’s arc (+ Maya if we’re including the anime). And you don’t really need me to tell you why. I find her so so relatable because she’s evolved from being a passive observer who feels as if she has no power or agency in her own life to flipping in the COMPLETE opposite direction and, well...going full rambo. She's shot way too far in the other direction, though, and risks burning up upon re-entry if she isn't careful.
Above all the edgelord, though, we know that she's a dork with a big heart who adores her school and friends. That commitment to preserving the past and those who came before her is such a gratuitously Si-dom thing, and we're all rooting for her because we can see how hard it is to go against her sweeter nature and take Kaoruko head-on. But that aux Fe and inferior Ne give her no breathing room to figure out what she's going to be doing after all of this - she's so focused on her mission and what she must achieve, and that single-mindedness slingshotting out of prior passivity is...so scary to see. It reminds me a bit of her extroverted xSFJ sister's arc in the anime - Nana.
Fumi Yumeoji: ISTJ
Now that I’ve thought about it more, her type is pretty clear. Some commenters on her PDB page made REALLY strong arguments for Fumi being an ISFP in a Te grip (Te, extroverted thinking, is ISFP’s weakest function - when they’re caught in its grip, they become overly critical of the world around them and turn into control freaks). But I feel like her Te is just too strong, even if she’s in a grip, for it to be her inferior. And, more importantly, I see zero Se in her. There’s no way it could be her auxiliary function. But I get why people think ISFP! She definitely has a ton of Fi - she left her bright future behind at Siegfeld because of it. She’d compromised a value extremely dear to her (her love for her sister!) in her stress, and that sin was so unforgivable to her that she abandoned Siegfeld completely. That screams Fi. But seeing how the other ISTJ in Revue Starlight (Junna!) uses her Fi, arguments for Fumi being one as well get stronger and stronger.
ISTJs have Fi as their tertiary function. And tertiary functions can be super strong, especially if she was caught in a Si-Fi loop! Here’s what an Si-Fi loop looks like:
“The ISTJ in this loop becomes hyper critical of past events and can see all of the negative things which have occurred and are likely to occur again. Seeing these negative patterns and past events becomes tied to the ISTJs emotions, which makes them fixate on these things and the fears they have of what might happen in the future. Normally logic would present itself for the ISTJ and cause them to reevaluate, but during their loop this becomes impossible...The ISTJ in this loop becomes hyper critical of past events and can see all of the negative things which have occurred and are likely to occur again. Seeing these negative patterns and past events becomes tied to the ISTJs emotions, which makes them fixate on these things and the fears they have of what might happen in the future.”.
Overall, Fumi is strict, incredibly hard on herself, and in a very stressful position for an ISTJ to be - but she also has some of the strongest values and inner sense of integrity in the series, and that can’t go understated.
Ichie Otonashi: ESFP
“Tamao...TAMAO…”
“What is it?”
“Doesn't it seem like Kiryuin-sensei is glaring at me?”
“She’s just looking at us.”
“YOU’RE LYING SHE’S DEFINITELY GLARING AT ME”
The “stereotypical partner” for ISFJs and ISTJs! While I wasn’t thinking about MBTI at the time, this was what I was referring to when I said that Ichie brings the light to Tamao and Fumi’s more serious personalities - they’re very lucky to have her around. Se-dominance shows up less in a jock-way like it does for the other Se-strong girls and more in Ichie’s lackadaisical and fun-loving attitude. She’s like a little puppy, excitable and eager to experience all that life has to offer her. Se-Fi means that she’s quick to get back up on her feet when things go wrong (just like her ExFP cousins Karen, Aruru and Lalafin), but don’t let her easy going personality fool you - she has a strong sense of values that she holds very dearly to her heart (auxiliary introverted Feeling), and we see that lash out when she’s the first to get truly, visibly angry and driven (loud Se dominance supporting passionate Fi aux with tertiary Te leading the charge) over the loss of the department (compare to Tamao’s quieter Si dominance supporting socially-conscious Fe aux with tertiary Ti withdrawing and mulling things over for itself before acting). There is sooo much to Ichie that I love that I’ve already talked about twice and feel like I’m being redundant at this point, haha. But she has such an inner fire to match that outer love and passion, it’s incredible to see. She really is like the sun.
Also - please see this tweet about Rinmeiki and the Rinmeikan seniors. It's such a succinct way of summarizing their worldviews.
Rui Akikaze: ISFP
We really see a more innocent side to Fi dominance with Rui - see how she doesn’t immediately pick up on the cold atmosphere at Rinmeikan during the early AA story because she’s just so excited about the Performance Festival (until Fe-user Yuyuko comes in and gives her a rude awakening). She’s really similar to her IxFP sibling Mahiru! It’s that shared unhealthy Fi not having confidence in her own capabilities that makes her project onto the girl she has a crush on (and not saying her crush is bad or not valid, just as there’s nothing wrong with Mahiru’s for Karen either - it’s just that she has a tendency to chase Tamao as this ideal because she hasn’t embraced herself yet when she really is a phenomenal person in her own right!). But it’s also that dominant Fi that fuels her passion towards catching up to - and keeping up with - (and eventually surpassing, but don’t tell her that) her senpai! It’s so, so strong! IxFPs are their passions! I see stronger evidence for Se over Ne aux, which is why I typed her as ISFP. When you compare her to her extroverted sister Ichie, you actually find quite a few similarities between the two! Rui’s passion and excitability shows up in albeit more awkward ways due to her introversion, but she’s just as powerful beneath the surface! There is so much light and fire there that I think even her senpais fail to pick up on - truly only Yukko so far has seen the full breadth of her potential (that’s the power of lesbianism). Like other Fi doms can tend towards being, Rui sometimes has an issue of getting stuck in her own head and being her own worst enemy (this is typically more common with INFPs, who are “dreamier” than their ISFP siblings, but it isn’t impossible for an ISFP to be feeling the same things). But like Mahiru and Kaoruko, there’s so much untapped potential that she’ll gain access to with time and support!
Yuyuko Tanaka: INTP
“If only I had the Magician’s knowledge...then it’d be so easy.”
Her inferior extroverted Feeling showing up when she and Rui talk in Arcana Arcadia is SO SO PREVALENT - Ne and Fe pick up on the actual dynamics of the situation much faster than Fi-dominant Rui, but that inferior Fe also struggles to communicate that change in a diplomatic way, and she ends up really scaring/basically bullying Rui. We also see it in her ardent refusal to be a burden and immediate initiative to put herself to work, in such a similar way to what I pointed out with INTP sibling LGY in my ORV post:
Yuyuko: We have to be the ones to shoulder it - Tamao-senpai, Fumi-senpai, and Ichie-senpai’s wish.
Rui: …!
Yuyuko: Our seniors have already been shouldering this dream. That’s why they can’t afford to carry you too!!
All of this is INTP inferior Fe. It's also why it was such a surprise to a lot of us when Yukko admitted she had feelings for her because, as I mentioned with Misora, IxTPs have a really, really hard time communicating what they’re actually feeling, even if they have developed Fe!
Yukko really is a hidden genius - she has such a talent for scriptwriting which was kind of easy to miss before AA because INTPs are the champions of being the literal best at a thing...then not advocating for themselves at all (I have to harass my INTP friend into letting me advocate for him all the time because THEY WOULD LITERALLY RATHER DIE THAN ASK FOR HELP). They aren’t really focused on prestige or gaining power like their INTJ cousins might be - what lights their fire is diving fully and wholeheartedly into their passions (like Rakugo), and everything else comes second. Stop distracting them with other things -- who cares if they haven’t eaten in eight hours. They want to keep focusing on their work! But if you catch them in their passions - or working towards anything they’re extremely invested in (like she is with making Rui the lead) - they are unparalleled strategists and geniuses. They throw themselves FULLY into the things they care about and easily become masters in their craft. INTPs are the classic example of asking a stoic person about their special interest and immediately seeing their faces light up (buckle in, too, because they’re about to launch into a two-hour lecture about it).
I’m not familiar with Rakugo so there isn’t much I can say with it, but dominant Ti-auxiliary Ne-tertiary Si is such a wonderful set of functions to have for scriptwriting or visualizing a story, so it’s no wonder that on top of her many talents, she’s already working with her seniors.
I also really love that she’s buds with Nana - they’re polar opposites, too (ESFJ/INTP), and having Fe-dominant Nana to advocate for her talents and genius is really going to help her shine in the future! If they teamed up with Michiru and Misora I think the four of them would be able to take over the world in about twenty minutes.

Headcanons for Reeve & his Assistant
Stolen from @selfloving-shipper Dedicated to @unbiddenrhythm
A: Activity (What is an activity they enjoy doing together)
I think just spending time together while working, even if its on different projects, is something they enjoy. Whether it's work related, or after their together and Reeve is working on a pet project and Rea is occupied with her own hobby (reading?) They just enjoy being close together.
B: Bashful (What is something one of them finds embarrassing about themselves but the other finds adorable)
Reeve: He is rather self conscious about how much he cares for Cait, seeing him less as a toy or robot, and more like a child. He'll catch himself fussing when the cat wanders off to do heroics, or when he comes back injured. Rea thinks it's absolutely adorable amd also quickly accepts Cait as a person rather than a machine.
Rea tends to lose herself when reading, and will start reacting aloud (ie squealing happily, or cussing out characters during plot twist). Reeve realizes the more vocal it is, the better the book (and not to bother her if possible).
He thinks it's the cutest thing he has ever seen a person do.
C: Calm (How do they calm each other down)
Soft touches and meaningful looks tened to help Reeve regain his self control when he gets upset over something. Just gentle reminders that he isn't alone.
Rea, however, when she is truly upset, needs a little bit more persuasion. She has a very even temperament, but once she is fully and truly riled, Reeve sometimes has to physically hold her back and talk her down before it's safe to let her go.
D: Danger (How do they react when they find out the other one is in danger)
When Rea finds out Reeve has somehow placed himself in danger, she is bound and determined to move heaven and hell to assure he is safe. She knows she probably cannot rescue him herself, so she often enlists whomever is best for the job. (Which has meant making some rather unsavory deals, but she doesn't care as long as Reeve is safe.)
When Rea herself is in danger, Reeve doesn't even have to ask before Cait is on his way. There is a lot of anxiety involved, and Reeve is pulling any strings he can to save her. Eventually virtually all of Gaia comes to her rescue.
Gaia help the idiots who thinks its smart to go after these two.
E: Encourage (How to the Encourage each other)
They are both talented at encouraging one another. It's actually a main part of their relationship is supporting one another. Encouraging words, reminding each other of how talented and important they are, and all they have done in the past. This power couple knows exactly what words to use to embolden the other.
F: Flirt (How do they flirt?)
These two initially awkwardly flirt, neither really practiced with it. Even after they've established a relationship, most of it is unintentional flirting-- long looks, bantering back and forth-- but as they get more comfortable in a relationship, it becomes more hands on-- Reeve will skim his hand along Rea's back or arms, and Rea will tug at his tie with a playful look.
G: Greeting (What was their first meeting like?)
[Back when Rea waitress and Reeve had just started]
"Are you new?" Reeve asked the red-haired barista as she worked on his order. It was late at night, wll after main hours. But the Directors were pushing for the upgrades for the Mako reactors to be done before the end of the week, meaning long hours for everyone involved.
She shot a shy smile, "Y-yeah, just started last week. It's my first time running the place by myself."
"I'm sure you'll be okay, there usually isn't a big rush during the night shift."
She handed the drink to him, "I hope you're right. My name is Rea, by the way."
"Reeve Tuesti."
H: Hungry (does one of them cook?)
Despite what Rea and others think, Reeve can cook. He's just usually too busy to do more than a quick simple meal. After spending the night for the first time, Rea discovers this when she wakes to a full breakfast in bed. Healthy, but with a few hearty Kalm staples. She immediately falls in love with his cooking.
Rea knows some basics of cooking, but usually picks up quick meals from the vending machines on her way to or from work.
Also: Cait has tried to cook. And has burnt water. He is banned from the kitchen. Avalanche learnt this the hard way.
I: Imagine( what do they imagine their future together?)
Reeve tries not to get carried away with imaging the future. After all, their life has been insane as it is. He just hopes that no matter what happens in the future, Rea will always be by his side.
Rea figures there might not be any white picket fence kind of future after everything, but does dream about fussing over a few kids, (Denzel perhaps being one) as well as helping to manage the future of the WRO.
She also imagines Cait being an amazing, if not slightly ornery, older brother. (She knows Mog will be happy to cuddle any kids.)
J: Jealousy (Do they get jealous easy?)
Maybe at first, but after a while both are confident in the other. Besides, all of Gaia knows the power couple and knows how devoted the two are to each other.
Reno may still flirt with Rea, but it's mostly out of habit and to see if he can get a rise. Reeve tends to roll his eyes, though Cait will often act on his suppressed impulses and tell the former Turk off (with an accent so thick it's hard to understand).
Rea might be a bit...cold with Shalua Rui at first when the woman starts working closely with Reeve and the WRO. Reeve is perplexed and Cait has to point out the obvious.
There was teasing involved, but Reeve showed how devoted he was to her. Multiple times. A few in his office. And in a utility closet.
K: Kissing (what kind of kisses do they share?)
Many of their kisses are short and sweet pecks through the day. Just quick sweet tokens of affection.
But Rea is rather good at slow, sensual kisses, starting on Reeve's neck when she thinks it's time for a break. Maybe nipping and teasing his ear lobe while trying to drag him away from his desk. Reeve might grumble half heartedly, but he soon concedes and lets her drag him off to bed.
L: Love (When did they first realize they were in love?)
Rea knew she was crushing on Reeve for quite a time, but seeing him stand against President Shinra made her realize. Not fully because of his bravery, but the fear that gripped her heart. Because she knew exactly how Shinra dealt with traitors and instigators. And that fear and devotion just sealed her feelings.
Reeve was a bit more subtle. There was no moment of epiphany or realization, just gradual increase in affection and mindlessly thinking 'Gaia, this woman is amazing' after the events of the Sector 1 bombing.
Of course, it is a long, long, time before they admit their love to one another.
M: Memories (What's their favorite memories of each other?)
Rea favorite memory is the night she first met Denzel and Ruvie. Watching Reeve work on the old train set with the little boy, patient but aome of the child like excitment shining through while she and Ruvie watched fondly. (It was when she was sure Reeve would be a wonderful father some day)
Reeve's favorite memory is the first time he woke to Rea in his bed. Just being able to lay there and appreciate the woman beside him. The firat taste of domestic life that left him wanting more.
N: Nickname (what names do they call each other?)
Reeve calls Rea tender names like sweetheart and darling when they are alone, or in an informal setting.
Rea doesn't do the pet names very often, but at times will drop a 'honey' or 'dear' when at home and asking for a favor.
O: Object (What objects remind them of the other.)
Rea, of course, can't see a cat, especially a plush one, without thinking of Reeve. She may have bought a small plush black cat with Cait's markings to leave on his desk as a present once. (It ends up on her own desk next to her pressed flower.)
Reeve cannot see a red hairdd person without thinking of her. To the point there has been a time he sees red long hair and assumes it's Rea and will start talking without confirming it. (Reno gets a kick out of it)
P: Phone (how often do the communicate)
Oh boy. If these two aren't working in the same building, and for some reason are apart for more than a few hours, you bet they are calling each other or at least messaging each other frequently. And by frequently, I mean at least one text per hour, if not more.
Most is work related updates. Others are questions, sometimes just /i miss you/.
Q: Quiver (what flusters them)
Rea has Reeve wrapped around her finger, and he goes weak when she bites her lip and gives him a 'come hither' look tacked on with a 'sir'. Or when she tugs his tie to lead him somewhere.
All Reeve has to do is stand tall and either adjust his cuff links or tie with a serious expressionon on his face and she's already biting her lip. A finger beneath her chin and she's a melted pile of goo.
R: Routine (Do they have a routine?)
Everything. These two are so in-sync with each other that almost everything runs like clockwork. They are two people pushing for efficiency, so used to working with one another it's when they are apart things start to crumble
S: Selfies (which one takes more selfies?)
Cait, and then Denzel, pushes for selfies with the pair. But out of the two of them, Rea is the one more likely to snap a pic of them together. Usually after a few drinks.
T: Touchy (PDA? Cuddle?)
PDA is generally off the table except maybe for a light touch or a quick kiss, or at least at work, which is 75% of their life.
But in an informal setting, like around friends or home, they love being near each other. Cuddle time on the couch, Rea holding Reeve while he cooks supper. Long soaks in the tub together? Just cuddles in bed? Yep.
U: Unaccustomed (How hard is it to get use to each other?)
At first, its having someone just in their life outside of work. Their home is less….silent. The morning routine of getting ready for work and figuring who gets the shower first is a little rocky at first before it becomes second nature to take turns, and whoever doesn't shower is making a quick breakfast (which Reeve often volunteers because Rea's breakfast is cereal and coffee, maybe a microwave breakfast burrito if she feels ambitious.)
V: Vanish (what would they do if the other just vanished)
They would both be moving heaven and hell, over turning the entire planet to find the other, calling in every favor they could. Which is a lot.
X: Xray (What happens if the other is sick/injured)
Both of them are mother hens when someone they care for is sick or injured, especially each other. Yet on the flip side, they are also very stubborn patients that refuse to admit they are sick or injured.
They will only call in if they're dead. But the slightest sniffle from the other and they're insisting on bed rest and chocobo noodle soup. It balances itself out, luckily.
Y: Yes (who would propose to the other?)
Oh boy. So while both of them would love to get married, they also allow it to become a back-burner issue as they work on WRO and everything else. They figured they're married in every way except legally, so it doesn't matter much to them. They would be happy signing a document and being done with it but everyone else is not having it.
Yuffie gets the crazy idea first, and enlists Denzel, Ruvie, Domino, Cait, and somehow even Vincent. Then all of Avalanche, and then the Turks and Rufus.
The pair thinks they're being called to Kalm for some official business. Instead, they are faced with a surprise wedding. (That somehow goes off without a hitch.)
Z: Zzz (How do they fall asleep?)
As stated before, these two are cuddle bugs. More often than not, they are curled around each other, whether it be spooning or one laying on the other's chest, arms wrapped around the other. (Which is perfect for early morning kisses before the second alarm goes off, set for that purpose expressly.)
More than once, however, their bed is invaded by a certain cat-doll who doesn't need to sleep, but likes relaxing with his two favorite humans. And is happy to just stretch out on both of them like a real cat would.

Worldbuilding/Headcanon: Aura
To start with I’d like to say that my version of Aura is kind of a mix of the obvious canon aspects from the anime/games/manga, real-world aspects, and my own headcanons. So anything canon in the anime/game/manga worlds to aura is still canon in my version. As a summary these things include:
-Aura can be used to heal, at the detriment of the healer
-Able to read the minds and actions of others through Aura
-Able to sense other’s aura’s and see surroundings through a blindfold and other objects.
-Projection of one’s aura to attack or make barriers
-Activate time flowers
-Aura can be disrupted by air-based attacks as its a type of energy wave
-Able to track using aura as long as there is a piece of aura to track
-Able to prevent mind control of self and those around them
Real-world based things on aura are:
-Every person’s aura is different, while blue is the go-to color in the anime when using aura, in actuality each aura is a different color and different in general, making an aura user able to identify a person just by their aura. Using this I’ve also somewhat expanded that if an aura user knows a person and their aura, well enough, they may be able to track without a base piece of aura to concentrate on.
-Aura’s are like a veil around a person
Now to get into my own headcanons I’ll start with that every living thing has an aura, this is why Aura users can see their surroundings even when blinded. Now note that it’s a bit different, focus on ‘living’. Grass, plants, and the like all produce an aura, though it’s weaker than what one may call “intelligent life”, rocks, on the other hand, do not. Nor does brick, concrete, metal, or things like that. BUT, and here’s something that still helps it apply, nonliving objects can obtain an imprint of other’s aura’s from exposure. The amount of exposure and attachment to the object will make this imprint stronger and last longer. A well-beloved object may never actually lose it’s imprint, even if it dulls in strength over time. Aura is the literal life force of creatures, what one could say is the soul of living objects (this is why using one’s aura to heal another is dangerous), and the more a person loves an object and keeps it around the more ‘soul’ is imprinted into the object, a literal piece of the person. So, a common rock may have aura imprints from those who pass it or touch it, but it would be multitudes and fade away relatively quickly. If no one passes by for a long time, it will be an aura ‘dead’ zone, nothing seen. A well-beloved broach on the other hand that's constantly worn? That the owner has taken care of and loved for a long time? It will have such a strong imprint of the persons aura who cared for it that it will probably overshadow any other aura imprints. It may also dull a bit in ‘brightness’ of the aura over the years once the owner dies or loses it, but will never fully fade. If passed on to another who loves it, it may start taking on their imprint as well and revitalizing the imprinted aura. This is why Aura users can use objects to help them track an aura, the imprint is a permanent connection to the very person's life force.
Now a little bit more back on the topic of seeing aura, intelligent life has a stronger aura, but there are still variants. Pokemon based on inanimate objects, like Geodude, Klink, and the like, and really steel type and rock types, in general, have weaker aura than other “intelligent’ life just from their basis not having its own aura at first, but it’s still more significant than a common plant. Most other Pokemon types have an average level of aura, varying to be a little weaker to normal humans to about the same, some even a bit stronger, next strongest would be Fairy and Grass types in general as they’re so close to life itself. Then would be Pokemon who can utilize Aura naturally, like Lucario, and finally, humans that can use Aura have the strongest aura. This is why Aura users can tell when they meet another Aura user.
Now getting really far into headcanon territory is something I’ve touched upon both in my Ash’s bio, and Rui’s villain verse. An Aura user is NOT restricted to using just their aura. They can pull from other sources, even weak ones like grass. Of course, touch is the best way to do it, but with enough concentration and training, they could pull from a distance, though not an overly great one. Of course, there are a few dangers in this, as pulling from another will most likely weaken them, and if pulling past a certain point, they can very much suffer the same consequences as an Aura user pulling from their own aura to heal, that being if stopped at a certain point a shortening of their lifetime, and if continuously pulled from too much, death (think Sir Aaron’s and Lucario’s death in the movies. It’s not automatic, but it is quick.) These dangers are easily avoided by being careful of course, you could say that there is always a certain level of ‘excess’ aura, with Aura users having the most ‘excess’ aura to pull from. If you only pull from it it will at most weaken and tire the other temporarily but will reaccumulate after a bit of rest.
Now a bit of expansion on some canon/real-world points that start delving into headcanon territory as well: Reading one’s “mind” through aura is a bit different than being able to through telepathy in my opinion. Telepathy can act much the same, but with enough focus can dig deeper. Using Telepathy one can dig into memories or the like, delving deeper into the consciousness and even subconsciousness. Aura, on the other hand, more skims the top, this allows for communication, and even reading what one’s next move might be, but in the end, it’s only surface level. Aura users can talk to Pokemon or communicate with a human without speech, but they won’t be able to, say, dig into the actual memory of a story. They pretty much have access to the base level stream of thought that flows through someone's head, such as when one is talking to themselves, or planning out what they’re going to do.
Now, this might make it seem odd that they can block mind control, but really they only need access to that base level first, and then they can pretty much make an aura barrier around them and block any access to the deeper levels as you can’t even reach the most shallow.
I’ve also already stated this, but I think I’ll go into detail. For a person an Aura user doesn’t know, they’d need an object that has the person’s Aura imprinted on it to even track a small distance, the more well-loved the object the better. For someone they know well (as an example, let's say if Rui was trying to track Wes) they can track their aura for short distances (I’ll say a few miles) without an item. For longer distances, an item is needed though, and admittedly even short distances are easier with one.
When it comes down to how aura is presented, as stated, every aura IS different, but they all follow a certain pattern. Closest to the person is what one would call the “core” aura. This is the personalized aura of the person, and can be one color to a mix of colors, and is usually a representation of a person. A core aura can change over time, but it’s so slow it won’t usually affect anything like tracking unless someone is using a REALLY old object that the person hasn’t been around for a long time. (For an example of aura’s changing: I headcanon Rui’s aura is a mixture of a soft blue and pastel pink when she first meets Wes. But I now imagine she’d have flecks of gold and purple in her aura that cropped up as she got closer to Wes (gold) and Charlotte (purple) as they both became such a big part of her life and who she is. She probably also has some Red (for Silver) coming in as well.) Then right outside the core aura is a more... flexible aura. We’ll just call it the mood aura. This is an ever-changing color of aura reflects the person's moods, every color representing a different emotion more or less. Of course, it’s not always the most specific. The other thing about this is that what each color represents can be different for each person, based on their own beliefs or feelings on the colors or what colors represent. This means that, unless you have an advantage like Rui with already having Empathy, most Aura users won’t be able to tell someone's emotions just from their aura unless they know them well. Though they can, of course, use context clues like a normal person, or if they want to intrude use aura to read the surface level of their mind to try and pick out their true thoughts/emotions to start putting together what each color represents to a person. Now on top of all this there is a connection to aura and health and aura and... well I guess you could say morality? But not really. How violent a person can be is more accurate, or cruel, but it’s not actually black and white. I’ll use a few art terms to describe these a bit, but what you could say is health is represented by Saturation, the higher the Saturation of the colors in the whole aura the healthier the person is, while the lower the Saturation (the more gray) the sicker a person is. Now on the other hand Value can represent "morality”, with the lighter the color is, the closer to white, the less likely they are to be cruel or violent, while on the other hand the closer to black one is the more they have a propensity towards cruelty and violence, or has done a lot in the past. Now, I’ll again state, this isn’t black and white. It doesn’t take in the “righteousness” of the violence per se, and can also be influenced by other factors and even how the person sees themselves. And that it’s incredibly rare for ANYONE to be fully on one end of the Value Spectrum or the other (in other words pure white or pure black.)
As a few examples of how the “Value system” works with aura, Rui’s Aura is on the lighter side but it is still relatively dark as she WILL use violence to save her friends or the like. She has even admitted to being willing to kill people before when she honestly believes them to be irredeemable (-cough-Ghetsis-cough-), this has made it so it’s darker than one might think, but she is still such an honestly kind and selfless person that her aura isn’t very dark. Ash, on the other hand, has a much darker aura. He can be a very kind and even selfless person with a bit of a hero complex, but the thing is the time he spent in Rocket kidnapped did change him, and the things he did afterwards. Ash will see no problem in hurting or killing if he thinks you deserve it, it doesn’t even matter how redeemable they may be most of the time. He’s killed poachers with no care for if they have families or a life outside of poaching that isn’t violent, he’s lost a lot of his optimism in the world, though not all of it. Just recently I did a bit of a plot point on Discord with friends where Ash went and killed the scientist lady in Galar who made the Fossil Reviver thing, after destroying the invention, as he felt it was too risky to keep her alive to make another one to create the abominations called Fossil Pokemon in Galar. This is why his Aura is actually a lot more on the dark side.
Other things that can also influence Aura is, obviously to be honest with one of my characters being from Colosseum, Shadowfication. Now while it’s obvious that Shadowfication in and of itself will change an aura, usually into hues of black and dark purple, it also leaves a mark on those shadowed, and those around shadow Pokemon for long periods of time. Rui and Wes both carry some taint, Rui less than Wes as Wes has spent more time than Rui actually handling the Shadow Pokemon and trying to heal them. The mark of Shadowfication can cause an aura to darken as well more than it may have ‘naturally’. It can also leave permanent “shadow” splotches that won’t fade away. Of course, the effects of Shadowfication and being around Shadow Pokemon are not well observed seeming as how there isn’t a lot of aura users to do the observing, not is Shadowfication a common thing, at least outside of Orre.
Another fun fact I didn’t quite delve into before, there is one more Pokemon type with a... I guess you could say weird interaction with Aura. That’s the Ghost-type. The thing you need to remember is Aura is pretty much the soul of a person, as well as life force. So while one might think Ghost types wouldn’t have one, it’s quite the opposite. Ghost types tend to be different in the fact that their whole BEING is aura, or will show up as aura. So, as an example situation, if an aura user is, say, blind or even temporarily blinded, and are using Aura to see, then when looking at a human or normal Pokemon they’d kindof see an aura “dead zone” that would show up as, well, nothing, a void, right in the middle of the aura of the being, where their physical body would be, pretty much allowing them to see a silhouette of the person, but not the person themselves. On the other hand, if a blinded Aura user sees a ghost, they wouldn’t really look any different than when they can see normally. A Gastly still looks like a Gastly, a Dreepy looks like a Dreepy, there is no difference, no aura “dead zone” The only exception being Mimikyu as they wear a disguise that isn’t actually a part of their being.
Anyways I think this about covers everything? If I remember anything else I’ll just post a smaller headcanon. I apologize for this rambling behemoth of a Headcanon.

[2D STAR VOL.6 INTERVIEW] MARGINAL#4 – We want to work even harder to repay everyone
☆MARGINAL#4 Interview // LAGRANGE POINT Interview // UNICORN Jr. Interview
To those who have become fans by watch the TV program, please give a simple self-introduction.
Atom: Hell yeah! Shooting Star Raging, Kirihara Atom!
Rui: MARGINAL#4’s Aiba Rui. Please take care of me.
Eru: Nomura Eru! Please take care of me!
Aru: I’m the leader, Nomura Aru. Please take care of me! We go by the concept of “Idols who deliver a kiss to the ends of the galaxy”! Our main scope is musical activities.
Besides singing, variety programs and magazine shoots have kept you all busy since your debut. Do you have any jobs that had left a deep impression in your memories?
Eru: Recently it would be… That candid camera prank?
Aru: Ahhh, the one with the ring right? But in the end it became a reverse prank…
Rui: The ratings for that episode was really good though. I feel apologetic to Aru but we enjoyed ourselves.
Atom: If it ends well then it doesn't matter does it? Besides, we weren’t specifically told to chase Aru around just to raise the ratings.
Aru: Fufu. Everyone, thank you!
You have been enjoying your school life every day. Are there any exciting events that has happened?
Rui: If you mention events, then it would have to be May Festival.
Atom: LagPo (LAGRANGE POINT) also dropped by, didn't they! That May Festival really left the best memory in my mind. It was so much fun!
Eru: The girls also looked like they had a lot of fun! Being able to cosplay was also really fun. Let’s do that again someday, Aru!
Aru: Uuuu… I think I’ll pass…
In the TV program, Atom’s “Victory Underwear” was brought up. Do the rest of the members have an item you rely on in times of difficulty or a jinx you believe in?
Rui: I don't really have something like that. I believe that in the end, it is about the hard work that you have put in.
Eru: As expected of Rui, always levelheaded! Well, for me, it’s definitely my marimo! If I’m feeling anxious, I will carry it with me when I’m out and ask about what kind of day today will be. (My marimo) has always been looking after me in a lot of situations.
Atom: … Somehow your marimo is so amazing, almost like a God.
Aru: Ahaha… It is probably because (Eru) has been taking care of them so carefully that they want to repay the favor isn’t it?
Atom: How about you, Aru. Don't you have something you bring it around with you?
Aru: I feel the same way as Rui so I don’t have anything with me. But the memory of seeing the Star Cluster’s supporting us gives me a lot of courage.
There are a lot of idols who stay in dormitories, but all of you are living separately. For Atom and Rui who are living alone, are there times when you felt it was difficult?
Atom: Nnnnn… There are definitely occasions that times will be hard, but if you’re living alone then you’d definitely have to pay a lot of attention to your surroundings and do things yourself. Also you’d need to make sure you don't overspend, but having to buy necessities is so troublesome!!
Eru: When we are heading home from school you’ll sometimes say things like ‘I gotta stop at the supermarket!’ right!
Atom: But the good part about living alone is that you can be carefree and take your time to do whatever you like!
Rui: I personally am not very good with cooking so it was a bit difficult. I have been wanting to expand my repertoire but it’s not easy finding time to do it slowly… It would be nice to be able to make something with nutritional balance.
Aru: When you manage to make it, bring some for us to try!
Rui: I will do my best. For the cons of living alone, it would probably be the fact that I am able to concentrate on the things that I want to do. But it is not like I am unable to focus back at home, just that my mother and sister are both a little careless so I have to look after them most of the time.
For Eru and Aru who are living with your parents, if you were to start living alone, what kind of a place would you like to have?
Eru: Let’s see… I’d like a place where it can get lots of sunlight! Marimo needs to sunbathe! Also, the marimo will take up most of the space so I’d like to have some wall-mounted shelves to make the interior more stylish!
Rui: As expected, Eru would center his plans on his marimo…
Aru: I would be gaming a lot so a room with good internet connection would be nice! The connection differs from place to place so I’d really hate it if it suddenly gets cut off… Oh, and I’d want to put a big TV in too!
Atom: What else to say except that it is really like you to do that…
(laughs) I will definitely be looking forward to your live at Ryuuseikan. Lastly, please give a message to the readers.
Atom: Oresama Cluster!! Our TV program has started!! Of course, you would have been watching right? From now on, we will be stirring up even more miracles so don't take your eyes off us!
Rui: Thank you very much for supporting MARGINAL#4. The TV program has entered its second half and know is slowly approaching the end leaves a very lonely feeling. However, our story is far from over so please stay with us until the very end.
Eru: Marimo girls! Thank you for always supporting us♪ I believe that there are more people who have come to like us after the show has aired but our appeal doesn’t just end there! Do give our CDs another listen and look out for a new side of us!
Aru: To everyone in the Star Cluster, thank you for your support! All of your voices have reached us! After the airing of the program, I heard that there is an increase in the Star Cluster and it makes me so happy! It is thanks to the Star Cluster that we were able to grow this much, and with the Star Cluster growing, doesn’t that also mean that we are able to grow even more from now? That is what I thought. So we want to work even harder to be able to repay everyone. It will definitely be lonely when the show ends but our bonds will keep us together! Please continue to support us!

MINI Q&A SEGMENT!
Kirihara Atom
Q: What did you have for lunch yesterday?
A: Eh… Yesterday was… Yakisoba bread! It’s the one they always sell at school but it’s super popular and sells out so fast you can't buy it sometimes.
Q: If you were given an offer to develop a new product using grilled meat, what kind of a product would you suggest?
A: Un... Grilled meat… Scented perfume maybe!? If I sit beside someone smelling like that I can eat 3 bowls of white rice!
Aiba Rui
Q: What did you have for lunch yesterday?
A: I had the sandwich from the school cafeteria. I have been opting for that recently. It keeps my hands relatively clean so I can read books while eating.
Q: If you were given an offer to develop a new product using tofu skin, what kind of a product would you suggest?
A: This is difficult… How about a dipping sauce that is developed specifically for tofu skins? Top grade raw materials can be used to make something that will go well with tofu skins… Fufu, thinking about it makes me want to have some of it too.
Nomura Eru
Q: What did you have for lunch yesterday?
A: Yesterday I had… The bento Aru prepared! It had rice, tamagoyaki and lots and lots of tako-san weiners!
Q: If you were given an offer to develop a new product using marimo, what kind of a product would you suggest?
A: How about an instrument that can show a marimo’s feelings? Of course, having me supervising the project, I’ll tell you what they’re thinking of! Fufu, wouldn't that be groundbreaking?
Nomura Aru
Q: What did you have for lunch yesterday?
A: The bento I prepared. It had rice, tomatoes, and the remaining tako-san weiners that couldn’t fit into Eru’s lunch box.
Q: If you were given an offer to develop a new online game, what kind of a theme would you suggest?
A: Eh!? Le-lets see… There’s a lot that I want to fit in but for a start, maybe an RPG in a western setting with lot of knights! Also, also, I’d like to try designing the scenery, story and also characters! Oh and for the battle styles and motions, down to the finest details… Maybe using something like motion capture? Ah, and-

Final Project Evaluation
Final Evaluation:
This project was an impressive collection of mixed emotions and trial leading to error which then led to more trial and finally what I would consider a triumph.
The project started with reflection and this was something quite interesting for me as I hadn’t taken the time to look back at what I had created over the past year. Looking at all the ideas and styles I had already experimented with I was blown away any how far I have progressed over the last few terms. Its hard to appreciate how much you’re making and producing whilst you’re doing it but my development in style and confidence over the last year and I think that definitely set a tone for the beginning of this term. I am pleased with the recollection that I did as I feel it allowed me to consider what my most passionate and fun pieces were as I knew it was important to have a strong spinal connection through the project and work on something that I genuinely loved and wanted to explore. I think looking back into my What Remains project really was the main contributor to this and I’m really glad I chose to look at this project. However, I do wonder what would have come from this project if I had explored my previous work in the sense of styles and experimentation with techniques. I feel that I had some varied assortments of styles and I didn’t really look at those too closely. The style of the work really changes the outcome that you are aiming to produce.
Producing a concept for this project seemed like a simple task at first but soon became apparent as to how difficult it actually is. The most challenging part of this was creating a concept that people understood and could resonate with as I found by my tutorials. My original concept was not passive enough and I wish now I had covered all the individual changes in my work so carefully so that I could see individually how my idea has changed in contrast with the feedback I got.
The research element of this term really pushed my knowledge of my subject matter and introduced me to artists and topics that I hadn’t previously heard about. My research into artists such as Don McCullin and Alicia Ruis still stand out to me at this later stage in the project. This is because I feel that they are artists that I will be able to continuously refer back to and take inspiration from. This is what the research segment is all about and I feel that the research I did was so well varied that I incorporated so many different variations and factors for the development of my concept. I do wish however that I had visited more exhibitions and completed more contextual research so that I could be more cultured in my approach to this and just get some more personal and mental experiences with this art in these spaces.
The planning and development of my project derived directly from the research that I completed and this something that I am really happy with. My planning really shows the progression of each of my ideas and how I used my influences to craft my own perspective and approach to the topic and the art that I wanted to complete from this. This then really supported the pieces that came from this. I do however wish I had incorporated more of the research that I did into the planning as it all seemed to come from the same research and people. I feel that bringing ideas from multiple sources may have had a better and more original outcome. I feel that the planning for my activities and the weeks through this project was probably one of my strongest elements due to how well on track I stayed and how chronologically well the project flowed. I do however feel that the days got really brief towards the end because of how repetitive and unknown the days were going to be and I wish I could’ve planned these better to allow for more organisation and possibly more elements towards my project.
My Final pieces are some of the best work I have produced to date. Although there are still things that I feel personally that I could improve on I know that I worked my hardest to get the outcome that I did. The organisation for these shoots and the production of the film is some of the most intense shooting and planning I have ever done and I feel that it really paid off. The only thing that hinders my confidence slightly is the underwhelming reaction I got from my work from other people and that really played around with my pride in the final pieces. However, I decided that this exhibition is for me as much as it is for everyone else and I realised that this work has to have a personal connection to me and it does. It shows the work that I put in to create something that wasn’t overly trusted or supported by some of the people around me. This in itself was so reflective of the concept that I had chosen and I think this really added to the passion and drive behind what I was doing. Evaluating the work and production I was doing along the way really cemented the effort and ethic behind what I was doing and how my peers and I were supporting the theory and idea and hoping for the outcomes to match that. It allowed me to really consider what it was that I needed to do to get to the goal that I wanted so badly. However I do wish sometimes that I had taken my time with some of the shoots and the editing. This is me second guessing myself and never being good enough for my own judgement.
Overall this project has been a collection of continuous ups and downs. This project was so uplifting in the sense that I created work that I love and a topic that personally I think is very interesting and engaging, especially to people of a similar age group to mine. However, it was also a battle against my own judgement and self criticism which is something I’ve been battling for a long time and I had a personal breakthrough with this. With some of the lack of support I had with this idea, the only I had was my own confidence in what I was imagining as well as the encouraging words of those who believed in what I was describing even if they didn’t fully understand it as first. This really did help me in the end.
