Actually, on a similar note to last post (abt ritual au stuff), it actually made me look into bracelet girl ace monster design a bit. Specifically around their faces.

The bracelet girl's ace monsters have a single unifying feature: empty eyes. They have eyes, sure, but they're a single colour with no defined iris or pupil - they look distant and out of place in comparison to the other monsters of their archetypes... well, they mostly have this trait.

And I'd argue its Natural Energy related (rambling below the cut)

Melodious is a little bit outlying here, all things considered - Both Mozarta and Bloom Diva are ace monsters, and both have empty eyes, so they don't look hugely out of place given each other's existences.

The same occurs with Windwitch - Winter Bell - even if half of the Windwitches don't even have eyes to contrast them. Fusion monster Crystal Bell is a recoloured Diamond Bell with some changed design elements, but needs Winter Bell as her named fusion material (Diamond Bell not showing up in anime at all does not help), and has the same eyes as Winter Bell.

The phenomenon appears most obvious in Lunalight. Any Lunalight with visible eyes have more human looking eyes than Cat Dancer, of whom just has blank yellow eyes. (Leo added for reference on this, and also because of Duel Links.)

Its this same phenomenon that breaks as soon as Lyrilusc is brought up. Assembled Nightingale is the only extra deck Xyz Lyrilusc we see Ruri use, which is pretty fair to her considering it can close out games on its own effects (add Wagtail to her collection of overlay units and watch your opponent squirm),

but then... we have Independent Nightingale. Not by choice, granted; Independent is one of the two Parasite Fusioner-made monsters alongside Crystal Bell, and- and what's this?

So- So Independent Nightingale has the empty eyes, but not Assembled? And I did double check the other Xyz 'luscs, and lo-and-behold; it really is only Independent (who, now I'm looking at her, I realise her wings have talons on the ends.)

Anyway. Now we've gone through the ace monsters shown in anime (and at least one that wasn't but was very related), what would this have to do with the Natural Energies?

I have to talk about the girls super briefly for that. In order shown in the post; we have Hiiragi Yuzu (Flowers/Melodious), Rin (Winds/Windwitch), Serena (Moon/Lunalight), and Kurosaki Ruri (Birds/Lyrilusc). Each of them were made by dividing Akaba Ray up like Zarc was; divided by a Natural Energy interacting with the dragon it counters.

All of Zarc's Dragons have the same empty eyes trait as all of the above monsters (minus Assembled) - again, same order as above;

Which, if we take these things into account, imply the empty eyes should be dragon eyes instead (through influence of the Natural Energies). This, also then, implies that Lyrilusc might not be crafted to suit each bracelet girl as closely as the others seemingly were (I'm staring directly at Rin with regards to this), assuming the Natural Energies crafted monsters in their images.

But, Lyrilusc aren't the only birds Ruri theoretically has. Through Kurosaki Shun, who is her brother, we have Raidraptors. And we know he learned Lyrilusc to teach it to Ruri, so assumedly it fills the bracelet girl equivalent of Performapal existing before its Yuboy does? I think it'd be neat if it turned out she did know how to play Raidraptor (to everyone's surprise or not.)

By virtue of being giant mechanical birds, all of them have the empty/dragon eyes trait as the other monsters here (Rise Falcon for reference.)

Does it mean anything? Eh, probably not? It appears to be a "this is designed to counter [dragon], because it was made in said dragon's defeat", which Lyrilusc achieves on its own anyway - low attack stats bolstered by repetitive attacking and just ignoring that your opponent has monsters.

Is it an inconsistency that will bug me to the end of time? Yes.

#Marwospeaking #Its not even an inconsistency that has any relevance anyway? Assumedly either Assembled has been here longer than Ruri.. #.. or defending Heartland/Xyz from Academia was way more important than keeping Dark Reb in check; hell they're working together #It also could imply that Ruri subconsciously ignoring her purpose as a shard of Ray is why she's not blonde. and instead has.. #.. the opposite hair colour to her bracelet's colour? She's here to vibe. not keep one goth from losing it - hell she doesn't even need to #not until the war starts up at least. not that she gets to do her job as En Birds anyway #and maybe that's why Assembled doesn't have Independent's empty/dragon eyes? Independent was used to counter Yuuto.. #.. unlike Assembled. who was used instead to duel him for fun rather than trying to kill/brainwash him and Yuuya #Maybe a late meeting also caused it? they were both about a decade old when they met. given the war was apparently 3 years long #and the yuboys/bracelet girls are all the same age at 14 years old #So they were. at most 11 when they met #gives the very funny image of En Birds switching host to Shun. at least he met Xyz Zarc- and then Ruri meets him and its okay #I'm not tagging either of the main tags for this one. its just me rambling #One day I will ramble about En Birds having two viable hosts to wear it. but not today

Okay imma say it right now because some people do not get it!!

Being queer is not a choice, but you’re not necessarily “born this way”.

I was a gay man up until the age of 12. I loved boys and I was a boy. Now though? I don’t like people. I’m happier than ever. And it wasn’t a choice I made to just stop liking people. My body just decided not to be attracted to anyone anymore. And that’s okay. If in the future I like boys again, that’s okay too. I was born queer, but my queer identity will never be the same my whole life, and that’s okay :)

#aaronymous ramblings #sorry making this post because like idk #fluid sexuality is a lot more stigmatized than fluid gender presentation for some reason #im not abrosexual or anything btw i just suddenly woke up and was aro one day no joke #and maybe ill wake up one day with a hard on for a man again but idk #finally accepted being aroace and finally accepted not always have been that #like i feel like theres so many stories about how ‘i knew the signs’ and all that but its like #sometimes the signs dont apply to you today and thats okay #imma be real tho i might have been aro for a couple years because id make up having crushes but then all of a sudden i actually got one #like uh im attracted to men now ig #and now its like #huh i no longer am attracted to anyone #anyways idk just have met a lot of wildly ignorant queer ppl irl who literally called an abro dude as having a fake sexuality? #dont judge fluid sexuality or contradictory labels none of your beeswax #i promise you that a trans man dating a lesbian will not cause the downfall of gay rights

finally in the temple!!

piper spent the morning in the temple, examining and making offerings to the various glyphs, which was not one of her best moments. she got caught on fire twice and narrowly missed two other consequences. and it seems her lovely friend noah is interested in her, and since she also finds him extremely attractive, piper agreed to go on a date with him!

#mine #they've apparently flirted before bc their relationship bar is like at a quarter and i didnt realize??!!?!? #we're going to ignore that they met like two days ago btw #in my heart its been longer <3 #ts4 #the sims 4 #ts4 gameplay #ts4 legacy #time of your life lc #toyl legacy #toyl: 1

The thing about chronic pain is that I'll be experiencing the usual horrors (pain and discomfort that isn't possible to fully ignore) but I'm not even phased, like this is just a normal Wednesday night for me.

#it hurts but i can ignore it if i keep myself occupied with other stuff #which means its not that bad #but its bad enough that trying to sleep is out of the question #and that means its another night of taking melatonin with as much advil as my kidneys can tolerate and hoping for the best #disabilty pride month except instead of pride i feel nothing but apathy and discomfort #ngl i am getting more and more discouraged as time goes on bc i am getting less and less good days #and i am losing abilities ive always taken for granted #like being able to drive for longer than 20 minutes #or doing chores #or literally just being able to stand long enough to like cook a single without it using up all my energy for the day #not even exaggerating #i can at best cook one meal a day now #on bad days i cannot cook anything that cant just be microwaved or popped in the toaster #ever since i had covid last summer it seems like my health started getting worse at a much faster rate that it was before #my neurologist said it probably triggered cfs/me and that its basically a form a long covid #which fucking sucks so bad #like exercise helps some of my other conditions but i cannot exercise at all anymore without triggering a bad crash #there is no winning #siiiiiiiiiiigh #its fine though #we carry on

[mejomonster]

To get real niche lol part of why I love old school lolita (you know besides literally growing up when that was The dominant lolita fashion style so its what got me into lolita)

Is that it embraces the 1 color dresses, 2 color no pattern dresses, lace, and less accessories.

For one, the no pattern and lace containing dresses nowadays are looked at as cheaper or something "not actually lolita" when like... in reality it was always lolita if it was a real lolita fashion brand, it's just the cheap cosplay knockoffs that were too short and actually anime outfits were copying that style more since that's the lolita dresses the anime were making skimpier and copying. And that's still mainly what cosplay cheap fake lolita like dresses look like, because anime took looks from lolita At That Time period and then it continued on as it's own beast (also anime is more likely to animate simple dresses than intense pattern dresses I'm guessing). The reality is like... lace is lolita if it's on a lolita brand dress. Period. People moved away from it, as well as avoiding black/white dresses, because as I mentioned anime and cosplay made rip off cheap fake lolita rhats too short and wrong style and bad quality and not brand (and not lolita on qualities they lack). But you CAN actually wear a real regular lolita brand good quality dress that is black and white with frills... and I think they're fucking cute.

2 a lot of older pictures online exist of old school lolita. I love how many look "cringe" in their own way the same way old emo pictures do. Some of the styles of old lolita dresses like the intense long poofy sleeves or lace trims, are generally Not popular in current lolita fashion trends. But hey, even though they're "cringy" to modern popular opinion. They're still real lolita style - the old style. So wear em if you like them!

3 the lack of Intense Accessory Requirement. There's lots of old Fruit magazine photos of people in lolita, with just a headband/hairclip and socks/tights as their accessories. I fell in and out of wearing lolita, and when I came back into it in the last couple years it's very common now to see the expectation a lolita outfit should include: lolita dress or blouse/skirt and petticoat and dress shoes (the base outfit), legwear (like before), headpiece (like before). And ALSO necklace, arm wear (bracelets or wrist cuffs), purse (I imagine hopefully optional as always since ppl use different bags), hair style done up (again i hope optional and it's just Instagram is High Glam so people tend to wear wigs or intensely style hair more for Instagram photo shoots). The big change for me though is the seemingly much higher expectation on jewelry accessories and Fancy Legwear and mandatory arm wear and some people thinking the outfit is incomplete without them. The lolita style to my knowledge started as base outfit (dress or blouse and skirt, petticoat, all in appropriate lolita shape and length) with some leg wear usually (though occasionally ppl just wear shoes) and some hairpiece (usually a bow or headband but I've seen just a hairclip or barrettes before).

I am assuming the rise in more expectations of accessories comes from: over the top styles currently being what's most popular (and yes like Decora fashion, OTT styling generally expects much more accesorizing), sweet style being currently what's most popular (heavy on patterns so in personal opinion I assume that means one may need to accessorize more or be more dramatic with say Patterned tights to get attention on elements of the outfit outside of the main piece).

On the other hand I've seen more leniency on jumper dresses without undershirts (especially chinese lolita brand dresses some of which are designed specifically to just be worn as straps without undershirts), which I think is nice because in old school lolita dresses were sometimes worn this way. I'd also like to hope in reality lolita fashion worn in person is for the peoples personal happiness and preference, versus online like Instagram where yeah people tend to dress up the Most as public eye is on them.

I just think of Kamikaze Girls lol and how I wear as few accessories as her. Now I get mine is out of laziness, and I hate the feel of so many things on my body. But I grew up wanting THAT look, not the OTT look.

And then I guess semi related? If you're into old school lolita styles (and in particular gothic lolita), I really can't recommend Atelier Pierrot enough. First of all, they have a plus size line they carry that is AMAZING. It's genuinely plus size, I've bought 3 dresses and 1 skirt from this line and love them. The plus size have open free waists and then use a tie around the waist so you can tie it as tight or loosely as your waist needs, and the overall dress shape retains the cute lolita look. The free waist means if like me you jump 20 lbs back and forth, the dresses are guaranteed to fit ans look nice even when weight changes. Also the waist can be loosened easily when bloated or in pain while still looking form fitting (which is great for my ibs lol and makes them the MOST comfortable lolita dresses I have), they're very thin lightweight good quality cotton so they can be worn in the heat or colder without feeling like you're suffocating. Buy based on the free waist size measurements when picking items. Atelier Pierrot also carries Marble which keeps a lot of classic solid color with frills kind of looks, has some plus size (but really CHECK MEASUREMENTS because marble runs very tight... I tend to buy bigger sizes Than I think I'll need). Atelier Pierrot also has an English language option on site, and international shipping options. It's my favorite lolita brand. I also really like the gothic lolita look most, and Atelier Pierrot and Marble are great for that.

Otherwise yeah I'm basic, I get bodyline stuff, because it's sturdy and true to size (though sometimes youll want to buy a size up) and has plus size items that will fit me. sometimes.

#rant #clothes #egl #feel free to ignore me cause for practicalitys sake #my fashion mentality for myself is ultimately punk grunge #in the fact i think ppl should do whatever they want and dress loud if they like and rules are stupid #(and rules are of course opposite of being able to consistently actually fit within any fashion label) #and then i think cheap things worn until theyre broken are fine and good #(which like.. well lolita is an Expensive Brand fashion so obviously grunge and the worn down to last use minimal effort #of grunge is not really compatible with pure lolita styling) #hence i guess what id wear is mostly lolita inspired but on a regular day absolutely not within the rule confines of real lolita outfits #since i WILL wear a lolita skirt without petticoat to work with a vintage american blouse #i will wear a plaid lolita dress with the cute shoes and tights but no headpiece (since i hate hair accessories) #when im just going out and not intending to go to a specifially lolita fashion meetup #ill conform to rules for a lolita meetup since like. its about the fashion there and if a strnager sees me #id like to represent that style. #but on an everyday basis i like pretty clothes in lolita style and will pair them with whatever i want which #makes the outfits no longer lolita

My mother told me I couldn't do my makeup without using black in the judgy tone. She's going back to being a mary kay lady so I guess we are going back to the makeup battles from when I was 13 and went "but i dont want to wear brown! Its boring!"

You were saying, mother dearest? Dark purple eyeliner still isn't black lol

#please ignore my hair. i dont know what its doing rn but its Very Angry and i am scrambling to fix it before it causes more problems #why so dry??? how MUCH MORE CONDITIONER DO YOU NEED YOU HIGH MAINTENANCE BABY #anyway. anyone got recs for curly hair shampoo and conditioner that can be used daily/every other day #i know i shouldnt but going longer causes me bad sensory problems and you dont want to experience me having those. im not nice lol #the witch speaks
