🙌 for Jinana! (From Fran)

[ V-Day Asks ]

🙌🏻➡ to give a compliment

"Oh, this?" Jinana gives a little twirl, causing the hem of hir lehenga to flare out a bit. The whole set is the vivid color of ripe cantaloupe, trimmed with plum silk and heavy embroidery.

"Heron's mother made this for me, years ago. Sadly she passed away before she could complete the skirt... but Heron and I finished it together. Maybe it's sentimental of me, but whenever I wear it, it's like I can feel the love that went into it, you know? Like a part of her is still here with us. That's why I like to wear it for happy occasions, or just because."

S/he smiles. "So thank you... that means a lot to me."

A bit of backstory under the cut:

Was born in Ruthenia, a county near Nevivon.

Bookworm through and thourgh, Fran was always called too mature for their age. They used to be very naive and talkative (pre-amnesia), which led to some troubles with local kids. Unfortunately, his parents were working most of the time, so Fran had to learn to fend for themselves early.

Working since his early teens, by 21 he had saved up enough to go study languages in Vesuvia. That's where he met Asra — at the backyard of a library, looking through the dumped books for magic-related stuff.

In the city, Fran also found his aunt by accident (as he didn't know his paternal side at all). She was glad to finally leave a derelict shop to someone else and then sail off to travel. Fran to put a lot of work into place to restore it. Asra and Muriel helped them and became their first friends in the city.

As the year is ending,

The residual of all the life I’ve forbidden myself out of habit

is barely drawing a new beginning line

So where do i start ? today ?

By the time I woke up today i was already late, not in the sense that i had somewhere to be. No, but the urge to up and leave was almost hysterical

The only thing contradicting it

Was the hesitancy I chained my feet to before I went to sleep last night.

One foot in December, the other in January.

I thought i could still put an effort in trying, but then i started counting all the steps that i took away from reality

I’m so full of life that i don’t know how to put any of it to use; bits and pieces are falling behind because i have my hands so full of myself.

I rationalize the amount of love i absorb into my body, but.. it’s never wasted on me.

If it’s too much for me today, I’ll save it in, store it in a dark corner in my brain that resembles a personal pandora box

my prefrontal cortex

and when everything gets overwhelmingly dark I’ll open it then, let all the leftover love roam my world, and if it ruins me then so be it and if it fixes me…

Well, i don’t see it.

I strive for depth but the more i dig the deeper I’m buried

Naïve enough to expect that someone on the surface will surely notice, and walk back on my steps.

But it’s nothing to worry about now, is it ?

I’m young and I’m invincible and I’m on top of the world

I’m hesitant and I’m rotten. and I can’t stop thinking about throwing myself into this world

The way i was thrown in a pool as a child, expecting that contact will trigger an instinctive response and I’ll swim.. I’ll live.

So.. if I start spinning around myself in my kitchen like a dervish would do in sufi whirling..

it’s only because I’m overflowing with all that I want to be.. but i can’t.

Day 3 - Give a short summary of their relationship to the other main characters!

Nadia Satrinava - An employer and a friend. Fran is part-time employed at the Palace as translator/interpreter. Thanks to their vast knowledge in specific areas (yes, the boi's on the spectrum), Nadia invites them to certain conferences and private events. Fran, in turn, teaches Nadia to relax and let her hair down sometimes when they partake in urban exploration.

Portia Devorak - A good friend. Fran likes to spend time with her to re-energize - if you gotta socialize, better do it with someone who's good at it. Witty and confident Portia helps bring out Fran's more chatty side. Also (in canon timeline) Fran learns self-care tips from her.

Asra Alnazar - A close friend. They bonded over many things since they met by a library. Together with Muriel they all repaired the shop and lived there for a long time. For quite some time, they adventure together through the realms, bringing back items for the shop; Fran learning magic and rescuing pets here and there. Maintained a close relationship even after Fran started dating Julian.

Muriel of the Kokhuri - A good friend. During the shop reconstruction, despite not talking much, found quite a lot in common. They planted a garden together, bringing native flora from the forest. Fran starts learning druidcraft from him during that time. They look after each other's pets when either one has to travel.

Lucio Morgasson - A non-friend/almost a foe. Fran understands how much trauma he has, but knows that it doesn't absolve him at all. As Fran puts it, "I get every language except for asshole-ish." Thinks of him as of loud and obnoxious at best and prefers not to interact. Advocated for relocating his exotic pets to a rescue (that Portia gets offered to run at the end of Julian's route).

#FINALLY #I am almost no longer sick and so I get to do it again! #also I am very slow at getting through routes #but here's the long and short of it #the arcana #the arcana game #nadia satrinava #portia devorak #asra alnazar #muriel of the kokhuri #lucio morgasson #arcana oc #oc: franquelin #apprenticember
