"Cinderella" adaptation review: Sinderella Külkedisi (1971 Turkish film)

I overlooked this film during my overview of Cinderella adaptations last year, but better late than never!

This Cinderella was one of three Turkish fairy tale films that were produced in 1971 as vehicles for the famous 16-year-old actress Zeynep Değirmencioğlu, “the Turkish Shirley Temple.” The other two were versions of Snow White and The Wizard of Oz. While the production is low-budget and far from Hollywood quality, it’s still worth a viewing for fairy tale lovers, both for its earnest charms and for the creative twists it brings to the classic story.

Despite the distinctly Middle Eastern terrain of the filming locations, the colorful costumes are Western in style: they generally evoke a stylized late medieval or Renaissance era, except for the ladies’ slender, sleeveless ballgowns, which have more of an 1890s Belle Epoque appearance. Yet the characters’ names are Turkish. Most of the time, Cinderella is called by her traditional name in Turkish retellings, “Külkedisi” (“ash cat”), but interestingly, the Western “Cinderella” is used as a name she assumes for her “princess” persona at the ball. Meanwhile, the pretty but obnoxious stepsisters have the ironically romantic Turkish names of Tatlı Pınar (“sweet fountain”) and Ay Işğı (“moonlight”). There are also two “exotic” dream sequences where Cinderella imagines herself living far away with the Prince, first in a Romani camp and then in a desert land, which provide a showcase for Romani and Middle Eastern costumes and dance. The musical score is sometimes Turkish in style, but at other times it makes use of Western classical music, most notably Johann Strauss’s Blue Danube Waltz for Cinderella’s dance with the Prince at the ball.

The screenplay’s blend of tradition and original ideas is just as striking as the blend of Turkish and Western aspects. This version of Cinderella is abused by an especially melodramatic Stepmother, who gives her outlandish punishments such as no milk for a week just for spilling a little, or no sleep for three days for a small disobedience, all the while lavishing affection on her own spoiled daughters. But Cinderella takes comfort in friendships with animals, including a flock of doves who sort rice for her, and with fellow human outcasts, a crippled shepherd boy named Sarp and three kindly dwarf women. Meanwhile, at the royal palace, the Prince pines for love of a maiden he sees in his dreams every night, who of course looks just like Cinderella: in a sequence showing his latest dream, she appears to him as an elusive, scantily clad water nymph. As for the Fairy Godmother, she appears in three guises. First as an old beggar woman to whom Cinderella gives her own bread; then as an ancient sorceress in a mountain lair, whom the Prince visits for advice and who assures him that his dream girl is real and nearby; then finally in her true form as a beautiful fairy dressed in white, who turns a pumpkin into a coach, a dog into a coachman, and rabbits into footmen for Cinderella. She also gives ballgowns to the three dwarf women so they can serve as Cinderella’s ladies-in-waiting, and at the ball, they find romance of their own with the king’s three dwarf jesters. At the climax of the story, as in many other versions, the Stepmother locks up Cinderella rather than let her try on the glass slipper. But Sarp, the dwarf women, and the flock of doves come to the rescue, find the key, and set her free.

Despite being weighed down by an oversized blonde wig, Zeynep Değirmencioğlu is an appropriately sweet, endearing Cinderella. She’s surrounded by a strong supporting cast, including Sertan Acar as a romantically melancholy, strikingly blue-eyed Prince, Hikmet Gül as the larger-than-life Stepmother, and Suna Selen, who in Değirmencioğlu’s other fantasy films played her antagonist (the evil Queen in Snow White and the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz), here departing from type as the Fairy Godmother. Meanwhile, the costumes and special effects all look slightly cheap and artificial, but as in many low-budget fairy tale films, this somehow adds to the production’s charm.

This Cinderella is a humble, imperfect effort, but it’s still an enjoyable, creative variation on the tale, as well as an intriguing example of fairy tale film from outside of the Western world.

Character Intro: Felis (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- The Purr by Kéfi

Mother by her daughter

Age- 39 (immortal)

Location- Arcadia, Olympius

Personality- With a pechant for luxurious clothes and flashy jewelry, she's intoxicating & intimidating to many. She's unapologetic when it comes to her indulges in all kinds of sensory pleasures while also being intelligent, sassy, and fiercely protective of those she cares about. She's single.

She has the standard abilities of a goddess. Being the Titan goddess of cats her other powers/abilities include being able to shapeshift into/communicate with felines (wild cat species) as well as adapting feline physiology to her physical form (like cat falling, claw retraction, nictating membrane protrusion, pheromone generation, vertical pupils, etc...).

Felis is one of the lesser known Titanesses in the public & pantheon. It's frequently rumored that she was spared from most of the horrors of the Titanomachy due to being one of Kronos' lovers.

She has one tattoo- the Greek numerical symbol for the number 9 on the nape of her neck.

She has one child, Ailuros (goddess of cats & warfare). They keep in touch mostly through text and they always see each other when Felis travels to New Olympus. They spend time together whether it's a late night shopping spree, a late night movie, or visiting The Frozen Spoon for some ice cream sandwiches.

Felis primarily lives in the state of Arcadia in a small Meditteranean style house which she built herself. Inside, various animal prints (cats) are all around along with stylish suede & leather furniture. She fell in love with the location for the acres and acres of land she owns there as well. There's an enclosement on her property that houses her pets/companions. Wild cats- including panthers, tigers, jaguars, pumas, cheetahs, & even a snow leopard or two. The responsibility of taking care of them is really important to her.

In the mornings she normally stretches for an hour before spending time in her personal spa room where she indulges in a mud bath.

A go-to drink for her is a coconut cream martini. She also likes white russians, rum & cokes, cosmopolitans, pink squirrel cocktails (a drink made with heavy cream, creme de noyaux, and white creme de cacao), horchata, & dulce de leche milkshakes from The Frozen Spoon. Her usuals from The Roasted Bean are the olympian sized iced caramel latte and iced vanilla latte (with extra whipped cream).

She loves getting the steak & egg breakfast burrito (with extra sriracha) along with a nicoise salad from The Bread Box.

A physical activity that Felis enjoys above anything else is running. Running through the dense green forests of Arcadia in a shapeshifted form (a lean fast cheetah, a stealthy panther, or a powerful tiger) fills her veins with primal excitement!

She's well known on Fatestagram for her ultra sultry posts, her iconic walk starting up an online challenge where users posts videos of themselves doing an impression of Felis' unmistakable hip sway strut.

Aside from vanilla ice cream sandwiches, another favorite frozen treat of hers is a gigantic bowl of cinnamon roll ice cream topped with lots of whipped cream, white chocolate sauce, & dulce de leche.

Some of her favorite beauty products include the Olmorfia gel nail polish in "salted caramel macaron" (a soft glossy brown color), the La Petit Amour lip paint in the shade "a cinnamon affair", the Graces' Glam glitter liquid eyeliner in the shade "cocoa glaze" (does the perfect cat eye every time), and the Luxuria shimmering body oil in "golden dusk."

In the pantheon Felis is good friends with Matikós (god of performance), Kéfi (goddess of mirth); they often go shoe shopping, Aisa (goddess of lot & fate); they go jewelry shopping & clubbing, Charis (goddess of charm), Panigýri (goddess of festivals), Epimetheus (Titan god of afterthought), Dolos (god of deception & treachery), Rhapso (goddess of sewing), Selene (Titaness of the moon), Philotes (goddess of sex, friendship, & affection), Sponde (goddess of libations), and Enyo (goddess of war, destruction, bloodlust, & devastation). She doesn't get along well with the water based deities especially The Nesoi and Aegaeon (god of sea storms). Outside the pantheon, Felis is friends with quite a few maenads!

She's the godmother to Thespios (god of acting).

There's never a shortage of jewelry catalouges in her mail!

Two of her guilty pleasures are tuna fish empanadas & sushi (particularly yellow tail sashimi).

Felis is well aware that she lives far beyond her means calling expensive jewelry her weakness. There have been times when she has been sleepwalking, found standing in front of jewelry stores. Even though credit card bills are mounting, she's grateful for the "donations" gifted to her by a few of her friends. One such gift was 500,000 drachmas from Dolos which Felis used to buy this exquisite art deco style diamond & emerald necklace at an auction!

For work/means of income she models for/endorses Maison du Drame, Euryphaessa, Heavenly Spark, Phaelam, Megaleio, ýfasma óneiro (the goddess Rhapso fashion brand), & Ouránio Théama.

As far as her love life goes Felis will partake in the occassional hookup or one night stand, calling it "taking care of her itch." Former flings include Helios (Titan god of the sun), Aplistos (god of avarice), and Athos (one of The Ourea). It's often been rumored that she had an affair with Krios (Titan god of stars & constellations),who was the former ruler of the Underworld, but she denies this. Lately Felis has been casually seeing Koros (god of surfeit & disdain). She calls their connection purely chemical and animalistic, with her refusing to be seen in public with him. Felis describes Koros' music as "rusty nails being scraped against adamantine glass."

She was the one that started up the talk of Nemean Lions being an endangered species.

Some of her favorite gifts Felis ever recieved include the "lion's paw" designer heels from Kéfi, a snow leopard fur jacket from Aisa, & a limited edition leopard print Megaleio handbag from Rhapso.

Felis mostly eats through hunting (in her shapeshifted form), dining out, and ordering in. She barely cooks, except for her tuna moussaka!

In her free time she enjoys the nighttime activities like clubbing and shopping. During the day, Felis mainly lounges around, being alone with her thoughts, or sleeps in, quite fond of taking naps.

Her all time favorite meal is a steak cooked medium rare topped with tomato gravy.

"It’s such a waste when pretty things get broken."

Love by Daylight (1/2)

➸ characters: Seokjin x Reader

➸ genres: Sailor Moon!AU, fluff, sort of e2l

➸ tags: sly friends, petty enemies/secret crushes, running away from the mortifying ordeal of being known

➸ words: 2K+

➸ summary: The day you find out who your suave partner in saving the world is, you're absolutely, positively, without a doubt sure you'll be over the moon. You'll be so happy you'll think you're dreaming. Turns out you're right. You do think you're dreaming. Because this? This can't be real. You're being pranked. Someone, somewhere, is going to jump out and say you're on Candid Camera. (Please.)

>> PART 2

When the lights fade and the facades fall, this is what you’re left with: Tuxedo Mask without a mask, you without your moonlit glamor. Tux the civilian is handsome, you can tell, and this is it—the moment you’ve been waiting for.

He lifts his face.

The youma's words come rushing back: Let the truth be known, the city’s deepest secrets shown.

Tuxedo Mask is none other than Kim Seokjin.

Suddenly, you’re reminded of a crystalline city; people bowing before you; Seokjin taking your hand, your matching rings gleaming in the light. Was it a memory or a dream?

You stand there, dumbfounded, until Tux/Seokjin dons his mask and brushes past. “Come on, Sailor Moon,” he says, sensible enough to use your alias. “The coast is clear. We’ve got a fight to finish.”

☾

“Why does it have to be Seokjin?" You whine, collapsing into bed and disturbing your sleeping cat. (In your defense, he was on your pillow. Which you’ve told him numerous times not to lay down on because his fur would shed.) Luckily, Agust is acquainted with your dramatic side and simply gets up to move.

“Well, why do you have to be Sailor Moon?” He points out. “It could have been someone less bothersome.”

“Hey,” you retaliate. “You’re the one who came to me. You could have given anyone the Lunar Key.”

“I didn't have a choice.”

“What do you mean you didn’t? You could have walked away and picked someone better, just like that.”

He scoffs. “Not when it’s the Queen.”

“Queen-schmeen." You flop back onto your bed, the springs creaking in protest. "I bet Her Royal Highness is on her throne right now, all nice and comfy. She couldn't care less."

Agust doesn't reply.

At first, you think it's because you've won and nothing else can be said, but when the silence stretches on, you know something is off. You sit up to see Agust no longer curled into himself, but sitting. He stares out your window into the night, his normally keen eyes empty. "She's dead."

Judging by his somber tone, she'd meant a lot to him. "I'm sorry," you whisper.

Agust sighs. "No need to apologize, kid. She was your mother, after all."

"My mother?"

"Not now," he amends. "But she was a long time ago, when you were the princess of the moon and Seokjin the prince of the earth.”

☾

The next morning, you head to school on time.

Your mom—present day mom—was surprised to see you up early, and Jeongguk called you out like the bratty brother he was (wow, no morning run today?), but the truth was you couldn’t sleep.

Last night, Agust recounted your past, how the dark eclipsed the moon. Although the queen tried her best to protect the kingdom, it was to no avail. Seokjin died in the fray, and you fell shortly after, helpless to save your beloved. In the end, the queen sacrificed herself to give you and Seokjin another chance at love, her people another chance at happiness.

A chance to rebuild the Silver Millennium.

The thing was, you didn’t know if that was what you wanted. Not that you’d want the Dark Kingdom to reign, but you weren’t sure whether you wanted to rule in your mother’s stead. Or marry Seokjin. Past you might have wanted to, but the you now could barely stand him. And neither could he. Or so you thought. You’d gotten along just fine with Tuxedo Mask, even grown a crush, but that wasn’t enough to warrant a marriage.

“Hello? Veen to Selene*?” Someone nudges your shoulder, and with a start, you notice Mina looking at you in concern.

“Sorry, what did you say?”

“Nothing yet, but it looks like you’ve got something on your mind. What’s up?”

You’re about to tell her when you see Seokjin approaching, his uniform blazer neatly pressed.

“Morning, ______,” Seokjin says. “Mina.”

“Morning,” you reply, ready for whatever biting remark he’d say next. But once Namjoon comes up, he leaves. That's it.

Even Mina, who hardly sees the two of you interact, notices. "That's the first time I've seen you guys polite. It's weird. What happened?"

After a discreet look around, you grab her by the elbow. “He's Tux,” you hiss, but Mina doesn’t look the least bit shocked. Her face breaks out into a giddy grin, like a child who’s finally tall enough to get on the big kid ride.

“You knew?” You ask, a little hurt she didn’t tell you.

She pouts, squishing your cheeks together. “Don’t be mad. You don't know how hard it was to keep it a secret.”

◑

You don't blame Mina, for the most part. It would have been better if you hadn’t known who Tuxedo Mask was, and vice versa. You felt like Cinderella running away from the ball, her beautiful dress giving way to rags and ratty shoes. If the prince caught up to her then, she’d probably be humiliated.

Just like you are now.

Tuxedo Mask has seen you at your most embarrassing moments, fighting to have the last word (or milkshake) as Seokjin, and also at your best, saving civilians with grace. You've only wanted him to see the best of you, for him to think of you as the perfect wonder-girl heroine everyone else saw you as, but he's seen almost every side. You don't know what he sees in you now, if anything. And frankly, you don't want to know.

"Have you ever thought that maybe he's thinking what you're thinking?" Mina asks. "You've seen all the good and bad in him, too."

"But it's different when he doesn't have a crush on Sailor Moon!" You say, exasperated.

"Oh, I wouldn’t be sure about that if I were you."

Seokjin thinking of your alter ego that way is embarrassing, but considering he's also Tuxedo Mask...now your face is red, you can feel it. Red as roses in bloom. "You're joking, right?"

"Why don't you wait and see," Mina replies, as cryptically as when she was Sailor V and you hadn't known any better. Having sympathy for you, she gives you a warm smile. "Don't stress out too much, Moon. You're amazing either way. Just talk to him."

◑

You think there's some reconnaissance to sort out first. When you walked into Crown Arcade and saw Seokjin talking to Jimin pretty intently, you didn’t want to interrupt...okay, who were you kidding? You chickened out.

But Jimin is his best friend, so he'll know how Seokjin feels the most, right? It's the next best alternative to actually speaking to Seokjin, which, well, you aren't ready for. Case in point: you've done the impossible and made yourself scarce. You aren’t about to break your streak now.

So the instant Seokjin leaves, you walk up to the counter. Jimin looks up from sprinkling a milkshake. "Hey. The usual?"

"Yeah, just double on the chocolate."

"You got it," he says, passing the drinks he finished making to a server. You watch him blend milk into ice cream, then reach over for a new cup to pour the mixture into later. It's all done with practiced ease, and you marvel at how quick he is, not to mention how beautiful the finished milkshake looks after. The chocolate is perfect, the whipped cream a cloud of snow drizzled with dark syrup.

Jimin slides it over with a grin. "Mademoiselle."

"Why, thank you," you say, digging in with gusto. This is exactly what "stressed is desserts spelled backwards," meant: Jimin's milkshakes never fail to kick your worries down a notch.

"Good?" He asks.

"Mhm," you mumble, more to your milkshake than to him, when the thought that you haven't paid yet crosses your mind. Oh gosh. You pull your purse onto your lap, but Jimin chuckles, stopping you.

"I've got it covered. Besides, I heard you weren't yourself lately."

"Really?"

He shrugs. "From the way you're devouring that, it's kind of hard to believe…"

You take an extra large mouthful to prove his point.

"But you only lay on the chocolate when you're bummed," he finishes, and you’d protest if you hadn’t made it a habit to drown your sorrows in his milkshakes. They were just too good to resist. Not to mention Jimin is a great listener. Your girls, although you love them, aren't always the best. You'd catch the moment they crossed over from attentive to "Is she done yet?" but with Jimin, you've never had that issue. Turns out you have a different one.

"I hate how perceptive you are."

He laughs. "You're just predictable."

"You know what? You can take back your milkshake and go back to work," you say in a fit of grumpiness, pushing the glass back to him.

"Are you sure you want me to do that?"

You meet him eye to eye. After a minute—a long, impressive minute might you add—you take it back. "Fine. What do you want to hear?"

"Anything you want to tell me. And if it's something you can't share, please tell someone you can. It's not great to keep things bottled up, trust me."

You sigh.

"Here's the deal," you begin, feeling a little weird telling your old crush about your new one, but marching through nevertheless, "I met someone on...online. He's nice and funny and understands me even though he's different. I just click with him, and eventually, I want to tell him I like him. The thing is, I don't really know who he is. We've been chatting on Discord and his profile picture is Tuxedo Mask, but he can't be Tuxedo Mask. Or maybe he is, who knows?"

Jimin laughs. If only he knew.

"Anywho," you continue, "I meet him and find out he's someone I actually know...but he's a pest. He always gets on my nerves and it's like he's a completely different person! I don't even know how that's possible, but apparently it is and it's just so frustrating."

Jimin doesn't speak for a while, which is fine by you. You take the time to jam spoonfuls of chocolate and cream into your mouth.

"You know," he finally says, amused, "that sounds a little like the plot to You've Got Mail."

"That isn't funny.” You huff. “Joe Fox was a jerk and I don't know why they played him off as charming."

"Isn't that what you think of the guy?"

"I never said he was a jerk."

"But you said he was a pest."

"That isn't the s—" You pull at your hair. "Ugh. I don't know anymore."

"Did you talk to him?"

"And what? Spill my complicated feelings?"

"No, just talk to him. You don't have to confess right now. Just air out the laundry and see where you guys are at. Chances are, if you're confused, then he's confused, too, and there's no way either of you can get out of it without talking to each other."

"I can't talk to him, Jimin. I avoided him for three weeks! He's going to hate me."

"He isn't," Jimin says firmly, and you wish you could have the same conviction. "Sure, he'll be upset, but if he's really someone who cares, he'll listen. Look, during that time you avoided him, did he try to reach out?"

"Well, I told him I didn't want to talk and he stopped asking."

"So he'll listen. If it turns out he hates you, give him a piece of your mind and I'll give you triple chocolate milkshakes on the house."

When he puts it like that, talking to Seokjin doesn't seem as dreadful. "You're not just saying that?"

"Have I ever said something I didn't mean?"

You get your answer when someone comes trudging in, holding up a bag from your go-to fast food joint. "Jimin! You better be grateful I drove all the way downtown to get you these burgers. Since when did you like ______'s favorite, anyways?"

"Since now," your traitor of a friend says. You glare at him, which he conveniently ignores.

"You're the best," he tells a surprised Seokjin, leaving with a pat on his shoulder. "Enjoy your meal!"

I have lived inside movies since I was a child. Diving into deep sparkling water, tickling like electric fire across my skin. Moving through time with a playful miasma to obscure the brutal truth of reality. Dancing like a ghostly scarf as it sinks slowly to the sea bottom. Drowning in darkness and pressure. But in the world of imagination, one is never without options. You can pierce through the surface like a gun, fly high on the ecstasy of limitless potential.

I have been hiding in books since I can remember. Singing the songs of my favorite musicals as I skip through flower fields. Talking to myself, being three people at once. Though alone, I am never lonely in times like these. My mind so full of color, sound, and the vivid shapes of imaginary people conjured from thin air. There’s a sort of magic in it. I suppose I never stopped playing imagination games as a child. They saved me, still do.

I remember spending hours in the library, pretending I was kin to the page master, able to make books come alive. The feeling of total immersion so complete, I would forget where I was. I found a book on the phantom of the opera. For months the soundtrack was all I listened to. I wore satin dresses to school, my hair curled, with chandelier earrings, and at recess I would find an empty stretch of grass to dance and sing to myself in.

I have been a mermaid, a pixie, a witch, a psychopath, an ingenue, a misguided soul, criminally insane, designed my own wizarding world character, been Winnie from Tuck Everlasting, a pirate on cutthroat island, a passenger fighting for their life as the titanic sank, an Egyptian priestess, a Greek aristocrat, a victorian courtesan in Paris, a Pokémon trainer, a sailor soldier, a moon princess, the sovereign of silence, Hecate, Selene, Artemis, Athena, Samara from the Ring, an Elf princess, a beatnik, a fashion designer, a world traveler. Wendy from Peter Pan, Snow White, Megara from Hercules, Medusa, cat woman, Mulan, Esmeralda. I have been so many beings inside my head. Whenever a new obsession finds me—to there I retreat from the world. Hovering over reality, but never really coming into alignment with it.

Now with the world frozen as it is, I rely on my inner sanctum most instensely. The lighthouse in all the darkness to which we so desperately cleave. Keep the awe and wonder of childhood close to your heart, always. In this way, you are immortal.

#me

Connections in PreCure Civilian Names (Updated)

If you don’t see a Cure, I found no relevant connection.

Sometimes I looked to Google Translate for help.

These are only connections I’ve noticed on my own. Please let me know which connections I’ve missed!

Honoka Yukishiro (Cure White) - “Yukishiro” means “snow white.”

Hikari Kujo (Shiny Luminous) - “Hikari” is just the literal word for “light,” alluding to her role in the series.

Saki Hyuuga (Cure Bloom/Bright) - “Saki” means “bloom” or “blooming.” “Hyuuga” can mean “facing the sun’s direction”; if you’re wondering what relevance that has, look what type of flower appears in Bloom’s transformation.

Mai Mishou (Cure Egret/Windy) - “shou” can mean “fly,” referring to the egret bird.

Nozomi Yumehara/Cure Dream - “Nozomi” can mean either “hope” or “wish,” as she introduces herself as the Cure of hope (I think). “Yume” means “dream.”

Rin Natsuki/Cure Rouge - “Natsu” means “summer,” referencing her fire powers.

Komachi Akimoto/Cure Mint - “Aki” means “fall,” which could refer to the leaves behind her transformation. But, like, that’s the best I can do with that.

Karen Minazuki/Cure Aqua - It’s not exact, but her last name contains “Mi__zu__” which means “water.”

Love Momozono/Cure Peach - “Momo” can mean either “peach,” or a word for “pink.” “Love” obviously refers to her heart theme.

Miki Aono/Cure Berry - “Aono” means “of blue.” “Miki” is used for a lot of blue magical girls (Sayaka, Mew Mint’s pet dog, the Amulet Spade Chara), though it means “beautiful tree.”

Inori Yamabuki/Cure Pine - “Inori” means “prayer,” referring to her transformation phrase and attacks, where you can hear her use the word.

Setsuna Higashi/Cure Passion - “Higashi” means “East,” referring to her previous role as Eas. “Setsuna” can mean “precious” or “beloved,” possibly referring to her newfound friendships.

Tsubomi Hanasaki/Cure Blossom - “Tsubomi” means “bud,” as in flower bud, and “Hanasaki” means “blooming flower or blossom.”

Yuri Tsukikage/Cure Moonlight - “Yuri” means “lily,” her personal flower, and “Tsukikage” literally translates to “moon shadow,” oddly enough.

Hibiki Hojo/Cure Melody - “Hibiki” means “resound” or “sound” (though “sound” is usually translated as “oto.”) This also goes for Hibiki Tachibana, of course.

Kanade Minamino/Cure Rhythm - “Kanade” means “beautiful sound” or “playing music.” This also goes for Kanade Amou.

Eren Kurokawa/Cure Beat - “Kuro” means “black,” possibly alluding to the fact that Eren used to be a black cat.

Ako Shirabe/Cure Muse - “Shirabe” means “note” or “tune.” This also goes for Shirabe Tsukuyomi.

Miyuki Hoshizora/Cure Happy - “Hoshizora” means “starry sky.” This isn’t a direct reference to her, but a starry sky can be considered a setting for fairy tale.

Akane Hino/Cure Sunny - “Aka” means “red,” which might be a reason why some people list her as a red cure when she is clearly orange. “Hino” means “of fire.” This also goes for Rei Hino.

Yayoi Kise/Cure Peace - “Ki” can mean “yellow,” though I know the translation better as “Kiiro.”

Nao Midorikawa/Cure March - “Midori” means “green.” This also goes for Izuku Midoriya (happy birthday to him, btw).

Reika Aoki/Cure Beauty - “Reika” means “below zero,” according to Google Translate, referring to her ice powers, though the name has multiple meanings; another is “beautiful.” “Ao” means “blue.”

Mana Aida/Cure Heart - “Ai” means “love.”

Rikka Hishikawa/Cure Diamond - “Rikka” also has several meanings, though one is “snow” or “snowflake,” referring to her ice powers.

Makoto Kenzaki/Cure Sword - “Ken” means either “blade” or “sword.”

Megumi Aino/Cure Lovely - “Megumi” can mean “love” or “affection.” “Aino” means “of love.” This also goes for Minako Aino.

Hime Shirayuki/Cure Princess - “Hime” means “princess.” “Shirayuki” means “white snow,” probably alluding to the famous princess.

Yuko Omori/Cure Honey - “mori” means “forest,” maybe referring to her clover theme.

Haruka Haruno/Cure Flora - “Haruno” means “of spring,” referring to the season her element is associated with. The same goes for her first name.

Minami Kaido/Cure Mermaid - “Kaido” doesn’t seem to mean anything relevant, but it’s similar to “Kaioh,” Sailor Neptune’s last name. “Minami” means “south,” though I don’t know if that’s supposed to mean something.

Kirara Amanogawa/Cure Twinkle - From first to last name, it translates literally as “twinkling Milky Way.”

Towa Akagi/Cure Scarlet - “Aka” means “red.”

Mirai Asahina/Cure Miracle - “Mirai” means “future.” I didn’t actually watch all of Mahoutsukai, so I don’t know if that’s relevant.

Kotoha Hanami/Ha/Cure Felice - “Ha” means “leaf,” which is in, like, all of her names. “Hanami” means “flower viewing,” an actual pastime in Japan where people picnic near the newly-bloomed sakura trees.

Ichika Usami/Cure Whip - It’s not exact, but “Usagi means “rabbit,” referring to her animal theme. Thus is where Sailor Moon’s first name comes from.

Himari Arisugawa/Cure Custard - “Hi” can mean “sun,” which is sometimes portrayed as yellow.

Aoi Tategami/Cure Gelato - From first to last name, it translates literally as “blue mane.”

Akira Kenjou/Cure Chocolat - “Akira” contains “ak__a,” which means “red.”

Ciel Kirahoshi/Cure Parfait - “Ciel” is French for “sky.” “Kirahoshi” means “twinkling stars,” which could refer to the ethereal nature of her animal theme, as does Ciel.

Hana Nono/Cure Yell - “Hana” means “flower,” referring to one of her attack themes and part of her outfit.

Saaya Yakushiji/Cure Ange - This one might be a stretch. Yakushi-ji is a Buddhist temple in Japan; its main attraction is “The Medicine Buddha,” which could reference her introducing herself as “Healing everyone!”

Homare Kagayaki/Cure Etoile - “Homare” means “honor,” which could refer to her character arc of self-acceptance. “Kagayaki” means “shining,” referring to her golden-like theme.

Ruru Amour/Cure Amour - “Ruru” is a reference to R.U.R., a 1920s play that brought the word “robot” into modern usage, referring to her true nature. So it’s not Lulu. “Amour” is French for “love,” referring to her and Macherie’s theme.

Emiru Aisaki/Cure Macherie - “Aisaki” means “blooming love.”

Hikaru Hoshina/Cure Star - “Hikaru” means “bright,” “shimmer” or “gleam.” “Hoshi” means “star.”

Lala Hagoromo/Cure Milky - “Hagoromo” refers to a few things, but the anime makes it clear what the fake name specifially refers to. I forget which one, but I think it’s either for a space orbiter or an old Japanese play about a swan maiden.

Elena Amamiya/Cure Soleil - “Elena” is a multilingual name that means “bright” or “shining light,” referring to her sun theme.

Madoka Kaguya/Cure Selene - “Kaguya” refers to a Japanese story involving a princess of the moon.

Yuni/Cure Cosmo - “Yuni” is supposed to refer to how Japan pronounces the word “universe,” in reference to the outer space themes.

Nodoka Hanadera/Cure Grace - “Hana” means “flower.”

Chiyu Sawaizumi/Cure Fontaine - “Chiyu” can mean “healing” or “cure,” though since she’s not the main cure I don’t know why she gets to be named after the season’s main theme. “Sawaizumi” can mean “marsh/stream fountain.”

Hinata Hiramitsu/Cure Sparkle - “Hi” means “sun,” which refers to her bright powers. “Hinata” means “sunny place.” Although not exact, “Hiromitsu” means “wide light.” Interestingly, “mitsu” is a word for “three,” which could reference her being the third Cure in her team.

Asumi Fuurin/Cure Earth - “Asu” is just how the Japanese pronounce the English word “earth.” So Cure Earth’s civilian name is literally the same. “Fuu” means “wind,” referring to her actual element. The same goes for Fuu Hououji.

8/3/20 EDIT: MY ASS COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT SPLASH STAR, IM SO SORRY.

thank you | epilogue

Anemone wakes more to her cat deciding to step on her face than to the alarm of her phone. Awake with a start, and a rush to get ready for the day. A quick shower to clean herself up, check how nice she looks, almost use up all her time trying to find a good-looking get up.

“See ya, Duchess,” she says good bye to her cat, and runs out into the world. It’s a cold morning. Probably going to snow later!

Today, she’ll be meeting up with her friends. Nothing special. She saw them yesterday, and they’re hanging out today. Go to the movies, play in the arcade, shop if they still got the money. Things they always do. In particular, Anemone wanted to get some chocolate.

But her waking emotions today were as if she woke up from a long, long dream. A crushing loneliness, and a sense of longing. She really wanted to see them. She just really wanted to see them. She felt like she hadn’t seen them in so, so long. That she wouldn’t see them ever again.

It’s stupid. Anemone feels like she’s about to cry from the thought, and closes her eyes in the train to pretend to be asleep. She worries that she will actually cry for some reason when she sees them again. It’s so stupid. It’s going to be so embarrassing if she actually does that. What would cool girls seeing her randomly tearing up think? What the heck happened in her dream?

She spends the rest of her trip with wet eyes, wiping them on her sleeve right before she steps into their meeting place.

Peony, Daisy, and Erica were already waiting for her, waving and calling to Anemone when they spot her. Anemone runs towards her friends, hiding an unreasonable amount of emotion in her heart behind a wide grin. Her friends... her brothers and sister, pretty much. Yeah, they were family. These names were something they chose for themselves--it was all her idea, actually. These flowery names were a sign of their bond.

Man, why did she miss them so much? An exchange of high fives and lively greetings, and they do as planned and as promised today. They have fun. They play together. They talk with each other about their own lives. They laugh with each other, screw around and tease each other. They enjoy their freedom together. Together...

As they eat together, Daisy points out that Erica is drawing Anemone’s stupid sentimental smile, coming unheeded. Anemone takes his sketchbook and slaps his head with it. Peony asks her if she’s okay.

“Huh? Uh... I don’t really understand it myself. I think I had a weird dream,” Anemone scratches her cheek. “Like... I feel like I’ve been granted a wish, or something. I don’t remember the dream, though.

“But... I feel like there’s something missing.”

Something is missing.

There is something missing.

They all confess feeling the same thing. And they go about for the rest of the day carrying this with them, until the time comes for them to part ways. It’s hard to find what’s missing... hard to recall a lost dream.

Anemone waves good bye to her friends, her found family, and sighs to herself before starting her walk home. The snow had started falling, so she should probably hurry up.

There was a wish.

Something they all shared.

She crosses the scramble crossing at the signal, losing herself in the crowd as she loses herself in her thoughts.

In that crowd, Anemone sees it. A small, peculiar doll, hanging from her purse. She has never before seen that strange, unrecognizable character of a doll before. But she knows it. Was it in her dream?

Anemone stops in her tracks. The girl, owner of the doll, appears in her vision. Oh, Anemone doesn’t recognize that uniform at all. There’s no way she would know who this was. She wouldn’t know that long, pale hair the same gold as the moon. The familiar red ribbon tied up in her hair.

The girl is frozen in her tracks as well, and Anemone finally meets her pink eyes.

Anemone knows them. She knows those eyes. And they are as wet as her own. Wide, with a cute, luminescent blush right below them. Aw, man. Anemone blinks and looks away, embarrassed by her own thoughts.

Beside the blonde girl is another, looking remarkably similar to her. A twin? With shorter hair, and a warm smile. She raises a hand as if to wave, and then shoves her sister forward.

Lily yelps, falling into Anemone’s arms.

There was a wish. A dream.

It was the dream they all shared.

A dream that they would all be together again, even in another time, living happier lives. Free to be with each other, free to love each other.

And her only wish was to see it for herself. To see her sister happy with those she loved. Selene laughs at her sister.

“Thank you,” her words for you, and for everyone.

– Ⅵ : ʟᴇᴀʀɴ ʙʏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴏʟᴠᴇs PT.2

" You know, I can not believe you some times. " " Mhmm... " " On some days, you're gloomy as a cloud, and others? You're high as a kite and face flat in a poor wolf's coat! " " ...Isso'fluffy... " " If we stay here much longer, he'll draft us in you know. " " Nnnnnnnnnn... " " Selene. " " Nnnnnnn!!hnhnnnnn. "

" You're worrying the dog, " Bex's voice came further disgruntled, the Exo standing few feet away from the portrait that was the Awoken latched and dug into a laying wolf nearly equal to her size. The creature having found itself comfortable in shade, just beneath a canopy tent that sat to the right of ceremonial torches and gong - the notorious Titan, known as the last remaining Iron Lord, standing before its' display and surrounded by a handful of other individuals. A second wolf, just as mighty, sitting at his side with amber eyes seeking like a predator to anyone who moved wrong.

" Either that, or its' partner there is going to get jealous of the attention, " the Exo nudged, jabbing a thumb over his shoulder. The statement retracting the Awoken's face from snow-white pelt, a look of pure euphoria painted over starry freckles as she reaches a hand between its' ears, giving in a farewell ruffle before sitting up straight in her own space.

" Ah come on, don't tell me you've never wanted to pet a wolf, " Selene grinned, thoroughly content with their primary objective. The act of crossing legs and grabbing her ankles with both hands shadowing the attempt to move anytime soon.

" Oh, but I have, " arms crossed at the Warlock's chest - if he had features to do so, he would have retaliated with his own smirk. " Plenty, actually. Dogs, cats, birds - "

" -- You can't pet a bird. "

" Get close enough to one and try it, then! You can totally pet a bird, " he snarls, rolling his optics. " Point is, I've done a lot of things - plenty of things. Many things. Even petting birds. "

" Eh, that's cheating, " Selene shook her head, rolling her own eyes as she glanced over towards the crowd. The perspective of being flat on the floor even more daunting to their various sizes and armor -- planting that of a child in the wake of giants. " You're like a hundred years old or somethin'. Got all that fancy experience and wisdom under those robes of yours. "

" Hundreds' being relatively generous, " he mutters.

" Yeah? I can only imagine what that means for others, " she laughs. Attention thriving on the focus of people, voices belonging to too many making it difficult to match those who still wore their helmets in person. A moderate surprise to the many that were standing around waiting, patiently expecting the first match of the Banner to be called sooner than later. Even the Crucible match-maker, himself, stood nearer the Iron Lord in short banter and exchange of words. An exchange she was not looking forward to in theory, eventually needing to close her end of the deal.

" It's not... too bad, right? "

" What? Iron Banner? "

" No... like, the regular stuff. Crucible. "

" Whaaat? Nah, places' a playfield. Lord Shaxx keeps everyone on their A-Game and safety above all else, " Bex explained, sunset orbs meeting the conversation with its' topic. " It's meant to get Guardians in shape, anyway. Especially before bigger forces like the Red War and stuff. Woulda been great to have around back in the days, instead of just having to wing it, y'know? "

" I guess. "

" Don't worry on it too much! I'm sure you'll be in and out before ya'know it anyway. Lucky if you even get on the scoreboard by the end of it. Maybe y'got that beginners luck, " he shoots a thumbs up, optics canny of a risen smile.

The Hunter's gaze unfortunately occupied elsewhere to recognize it - the familiar burn of blue and white catching the corner of her eye amongst the sea of people. The blonde who had been enraged before, the flaps of his Mark catching the wind as he fast-paced walked from one end of the balcony to the other, heading nearer the Bazaar with no intentions for a pit-stop. An ever-curious pull, unwarranted and indescribable. Selene pulls herself to her feet with uncertainty, stumbling a moment to catch her footing before turning back towards Bex.

" Did you see that? "

" Uhhh... see what? "

" The guy from earlier, " she points, though shadow long gone that the man ever existed.

" The... who? What, the guy with Zavala? "

" Yeah, he - " before she could finish the thought, the sudden texture of fur meets beneath her hands, giving the Awoken a spook before looking down at the canine who preoccupied her time moments before. Its' muzzle, pointed in the direction of which she pointed, nose wrinkled in a sniff and short growl in its' throat before the wolf paces forward. It goes to the end of the balcony where stairs meet towards the Bazaar before sitting in question, eyes hampered upon the duo as if waiting for them to follow.

" I'll uh... I'll be right back, " Selene waves, motioning Bex to remain there while she followed. A spacious look of confusion now drawn across the Exo's faceplate, stunned a moment before raising both his hands in question. As if just like that, his friend had made better partner of a dog than he.

How... tragic.

"Told'ya Screws, was over before it even started! "

- - -

Voices began to dull as air became less polluted with noise the further down the two traveled. The wolf continuing its' march before halting just before the curve of a doorway, sitting in stance as tail curls towards its' feet, ears pointed high. For all that she could, Selene merely followed in silence - blindly, unawares of what nature the creature had in store. She couldn't bring herself to question it - only that she knew she had to. A special feeling deep in her gut, that it would be worthwhile to solve secondary mystery before hunting down the man in blue and white.

What she did not recognize, however, was the the mystery would be two in the same. A series of voices ringing out from the other side of the arch, echoing against the brief metal pipes that lined the ceiling of the inner corridors to the Tower. One of the halls that led into storage rooms that had been plugged as living rooms, such as hers given to her by Hawthorne. Falling unaware to the fact she would be involuntarily spying on someone.

A duo of men, by the sounds.

" If the Hidden are correct in their suspicion, this is too dangerous to go alone-- " " It's too dangerous to be left alone, and too high a risk to bring more lives than necessary. " " And what, your life will suffice? What of you if you die like the rest? " " I won't. " " And you can be so sure? What happens, then? That you find out the truth and cannot bring it back with you? Reckless and shallow? " " I'm going to find answers, and that will lead us further to where we need to be. " " You're being too brash about this Val. I beg of you, just listen to Zavala and- " " I did not come here for your pleads, Vellguine! " " Then why did you come?! "

The shouts having rung the halls like thunder, they send a shake through her spine and wince of features against the tension. Hunkered over, her hands instinctively grab back at the pelt of her guide, lightly squeezing in speechless vain as she continued to listen.

" ...I came because we know better than anyone, that we don't always get what we want. " " Valdourin... please. " " I don't intend to go down as easily. But we cannot always prevent the unexpected... You're the last I have left. I figured it only right to tell you up front. I owe you that, at least. "

The remains of the conversation falling dull, a stalemate between silence and muttered whispers, the wolf pulls from its' seat and nudges against the Awoken in company. As if auto-pilot, obliging in its' direction as she stands back to her height, hand still connected with pelt as the creature leads her back up the stairs and towards the wake of cheering Guardians.

She finds Bex not too far off from where she left him, now sitting on one of the benches near some of the gardening plants. Just beneath the canopy as fur leaves her hand to return to its' most comfort in the shade, a gentle nod offered in return for its' help as she sat next to the sulking Exo. They go without speaking for a few moments, she in process of what she just heard, and he, in childish tantrum, pouting like a poor fool.

-- Climbing boots catch Selene's ear from the side before she speaks, the blue and white Titan leaving the bay and heading through the Courtyard back to the Hanger. Valdourin.

" ...Hey Bex. What else do you know about the Ward? "

" . . . "

" . . .Bex? "

" . . .Not 'lot. "

" . . .I think we should talk to him. "

" . . .Why? "

" I just... have this feeling, " she turns in her seat, half expecting to come face to face with the Exo, had he not been hard-line staring at the horizon to his right. Arms still crossed against his chest, muted expression cursed by unmovable parts. Yet tone alone told the story of a man -- and had it not been for his optics and uncanny eye-brows ( were they eyebrows? eyelids? shifty-bits? ), it gave enough character to reflect that of bias man-child. " ...Whats wrong with you? "

" Wrong with me? Nothing wrong with me. Nothing at all. Nada. Not a thaaaaaang. "

" -- ʜᴇ ᴅᴏᴇs ɴᴏᴛ ʟɪᴋᴇ ʙᴇɪɴɢ ʟᴇғᴛ ᴀʟᴏɴᴇ. "

The third voice of the bench, Screws, having popped toward Selene's left as she peered over upon Ghost. A raise of her own eyebrows at the response -- and Bex is suddenly looking her way. Well, Screws's way. Angry eye-squint-lids.

" And this is why I don't ask for your input! "

" You're upset I left you --? " Selene cracks, half in trying not to crack a contagious smile of laughter. " Oh, please! It was a stealth mission --! We woulda been toast if we both went! "

" Oh, but the dog can go. "

" I feel like the dog has a bit more common sense than the two of us combined. "

An audible huff -- optics slant in a lined stare before shaking his head rapidly and dropping arms from their stiffness. A few grumbles of inaudible words prowl the orange sensors in his plate before standing back up from the bench, extending a hand to the other reluctantly. She'd win this one.

" So - what do you think? " she asks, accepting the full invitation to stand.

" I think we should stay out of other peoples' business unless they make a good meal. "

" Well what if he cooks? "

" If he cooks something other than grenades that are thrown at the enemy with the next high score? Sure, we'll talk it out, " Bex sassed, nodding along with his words. " But until then -- I think it's a bad idea, and you're getting your head a bit too close to drowning. Keep it above water. "

" But he needs help -- I heard it, " Selene argues, tilting her head slight. " I don't know what he's doing but it's clearly something more than one person can handle. "

" And I can assure you, a guy like that? Has his own fireteam that is very capable. Now come on, Shaxx just signed up the next ring of Crucible. You're gonna miss out if we don’t get down there. "

" Beeex! "

" Talk it after the match, green leaf! Let's gooo~! "

Everly’s Diary - Entry #5

Synopsis: To combat boredom, Everly explores the woods in search of fairies and adventure!

Words: 1,133

Date: 29th of January, 2019

Dear Diary, This morning I drew a card to help me decide what to do today. We still haven't gone to Diagon Alley to get my wand, and with it snowing here, dad has been working from home more. This means things around the house have gotten quiet, because my dad has been so busy with work. He always takes on extra commissions in the winter, to make wizard chess sets. Mum and my stepdad are on vacation to go see some big Quidditch game, but I decided not to go. While it's been very peaceful, I've gotten sorta restless.

The card I drew was The Devil, which sounds scary and all, but it really isn't. It brings clarity, more than anything. This card represents negative restraints, usually that which is in the reader's control. It suggests I am feeling trapped, but it also tells me I have the power to change this feeling. I think that's very accurate, given my current situation. So, I decided that today, I would have an adventure. After reading a muggle book called Anne of Green Gables, I felt very much like playing pretend and dressing up. I put on a frilly dress that would also be warm in the snow, decorated my hair with flowers, and grabbed my wooden sword. I also took with me a jar of bluebell flames my dad had made, for light and warmth. I can't wait to learn that spell. Puck followed at my heels, as he's always excited to go into the world with me and explore. There wasn't a lot of interesting things growing, since it's winter and all, but the snow made everything look pretty. I wandered in the woods near my house for a bit. I wasn't worried about getting lost, as I'm quite familiar with them and with all the branches bare, it's easy to retrace my steps. Truthfully, I was hoping I might come across a magical creature more interesting than the pesky garden gnomes that like to ruin our cabbages. Along the way, I liked to imagine I was some sort of hero from a lost village, looking for something. That something being magic, of course. Despite how the cold wind burned my cheeks, I still found it quite thrilling to run. Puck easily kept up with me, and even climbed some trees along the way. I would have joined him, but many of the trees were quite thin, and I wouldn't want to break any branches. With wands on my mind, however, I did decide to keep a sharp eye out for any sticks and branches that had already fallen, that I could collect. I had actually begun reading about wand crafting because my dad has several books on the topic, and it's very fascinating. Wands are somewhat "sentient" which is a word I learned in one of the books. Only slightly, enough for there to be a bond between it and the witch or wizard, and for it to display behaviours as though it has its own personality. Along my journey, as I collected branches and enjoyed the snow with my cat, I also daydreamed about fairies. This made me drawn to tree trunks and stumps to see if any might've been living in them for warmth. All I ended up finding was a little owl and a particularly shy knarl that ran away as soon as it saw me. It was disappointing at first, as I know fairies do exist, even if they're not quite how the muggles make them out to be. I'm positive I've seen them before, too, but today's search proved fruitless. I didn't let this discourage me, and I kept searching, until my fingers grew red and numb. Eventually, I did find something that gave me some hope, even if it wasn't exactly a fairy. I turned a particularly large leaf over, which was hanging low near the base of a tree, and saw that underneath was a cluster of eggs that reminded me of large, colourful pearls. The eggs were in colours like a warm sunset. I read in a book on magical creatures that fairies can lay as many as fifty eggs at once, so if this cluster is what I'm hoping it is, it means there are fairies in my woods! After awhile it grew dark, and the light and warmth from my bluebell flames was getting weaker. Puck and I turned around to head back, and I found a pretty jobberknoll feather on the path. I tucked this in with the branches I had collected. It must have been dinner time. I didn't realize it until I had actually gone home and gotten warmed up, but I was quite hungry! I had completely missed lunch, after all. Puck and I settled on a blanket by the fire, with some more books on wand crafting and magical creatures. One hot mug of butterbeer and some fresh fish and chips later, I had fallen completely asleep. It's still dark out as I'm writing this. I must have only slept for a few hours before dad woke me up so I could go to my room, but now I can't go back to sleep at all! I keep thinking about the eggs I saw. I hope that they're fairies, and I hope they don't freeze in the cold. Maybe they'll all be hatched by spring, and then I'll have new friends to spend my last summer with! I don't think I'll be getting sleep any time soon. When I did sleep, I had a funny dream about a snidget. I dreamt I was in the woods again, and saw one sitting on a branch, looking exactly as I had seen in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. A golden, round, walnut sized bird with wings. But then I became the snidget, and had to fly away because something was chasing me. I ended up waking up before learning if I had escaped, or if I was captured. I've never seen a snidget in real life, actually. All I've seen is pictures, and one made of porcelain in a snowglobe I have. I've read they're endangered because people used to hunt them, and now they're taken care of at reserves. It would be interesting to keep one, but I know that it's illegal to do so and would be cruel to try. I think I'm going to decorate the branches I got until I feel sleepy again. I have plenty of ribbons and little crystals and paint. I might even use the feather I found, though I think that could be used in a potion, so maybe I should give that to my dad instead... Well, anyways. That's all I have for today. Sleep well! - Everly
