Thinking about Robin and Sunday's halos.

About how Robin's halo isn't a closed circle, but more like a branch forming a circular shape, where the start and stem don't touch. It's also uneven in shape and splits into three flowers, like it's allowed to grow freely, unobstructed. Something about Robin having left Penacony and having escaped the confines of her cage, being able to flourish. About her being able to let people in, and connect to them.

Meanwhile Sunday stayed behind to be the head of the Oak family and conform to the strict role that's expected of him, and his halo is a perfectly symmetrical shape that's practically fully closed off. It's sharp, almost more like a crown of thorns than a halo. And it almost doesn't have any openings to let anything, or anyone, in easily. It actively discourages getting close to it.

And then if you want to get sappy about, which I will - Sunday doesn't let anyone in, with that almost completely sealed, thorny halo of his... But there's an opening in Robin's halo, and so it can fit around Sunday's. Something about him always being able to find solace in her, because there's room for him in her (halo) heart always, by design.

Anyway I'm not normal about them.

#honkai star rail #hsr #hsr robin #hsr sunday #there's also something to be said about the size and position of their respective halos #robin's is much smaller than sunday's #and it floats above her head a little tilted to the side #it looks more like a fancy accessory #sunday's is a lot bigger - it's almost bigger than his head #and it hangs behind him #always hovering in view like a frame #much more oppressive than robin's #those siblings... those siblings! #mihoyo!! you can't keep getting away with it! #when are you releasing sunday from npc jail #ray's records #thank you kura for prompting those thoughts with your art and then making me put them into words #and this one goes out to you mercy for your additions i am ALSO abnormal about #harmonycest #this was prompted by the ship and the ship was on my mind when i wrote it so i am tagging it but this works without the shipping goggles to #no matter how you see them robin is so so important to sunday #his safe haven even in the way their halos are shaped #mihoyooooooOOOOOOOOOOO
