sometimes my thought process on naming ocs requires 70+ tabs open on etymology websites and related pdfs, other times it's like "siyon-elissa sounds like mona lisa, and vicenta sima sounds like a perfume brand lmao "

siyon will say some shit like "you love me" in the middle of asking for help/forgiveness as a sort of hail mary and aciano will go "does that matter?"
(<- procrastinating and thinking of divorce broken engagements)

❔+ 👻 for the wip ask meme?
👻Is there a scene that you find intimidating that you have yet to write?
ok so csa is a big part of Leandro/Penitente's childhood, and I don't plan on writing him being abused because 1. I can't stomach it and 2. It feels better for me to inform the reader in little ways how being drugged and r-ped by his aunt has affected his relationship with alcohol, love, bodily autonomy, and parenthood
It will only be mentioned that it did happen to him when his mom tries to prevent him from being excommunicated from the cult by bringing it up to Aciano (ok ok, long story, but his friend Huli finds out in the worst way possible after 10+ years, and it's not just him she abused, and she attempts to shoot his aunt, the bullet wound wasn't fatal, and he helps her try to hide after the attempt goes awry) The letter is the first confirmation to the reader that this it was definitively csa and not anything else other characters have speculated.
In a last ditch effort to prevent his exile, the mom brings up what his aunt did to him, but only to claim he's insane. She says he's unfit to care for himself, and it would be better if he was forgiven and made to live with her "since he's mentally still a child"
Since Huli is in a Mother Superior type position at the convent, she also uses that to claim he developed an oedipal complex because of his aunt... it's gonna suck so bad... also the cult leader already knew about the csa. Csa and religious abuse go hand in hand, you know. It's all for naught.
Toyang doesn't know any of these people, so her main take-away from Siyon-Elissa's letter is "cultists are insane, I need to get outta here"
tldr; this letter Toyang finds is gonna suck so much to write.
wait this post is getting too long i'll write the other answer in a separate post

like to be clear aciano and siyon were both cheating on each other it's just that siyon got pregnant and aciano pulled out so people have her as a scapegoat for why their relationship didn't work out. also he has a telepod. you wouldnt get mad at a guy who has a telepod

I don’t think siyon-elissa ever hit penitente, but I do think she took it out on their dog. she named her “askal” because… uhm

(trying to explain leandro and claudio) so like imagine if a father figure mistreated his lover's child, but in neglecting him and forcing him to study abroad, gave him the tools, the anger, and drive to lie and maneuver his way into acquiring his goals, plus he's one of the only people who truly know this father figure, because he knows the full extent to his viciousness. and after returning home, wants everyone to know what he knows.
now this same father figure finally has a legitimate child with his lover, educates him and teaches him about the higher arts, but essentially creates a playground where the son thinks he's a king when he's playing with glass horses. and how is the second born gonna prove himself? he needs to kill his half-brother
also they're both momma's boys (derogatory)

if you think about, every bad parents' problem in the last palindrome moths is that they want to have children to prove something about themselves and not because they want to have a family.

The urge to make a third Cascavel sister is so strong tbh but I know I’m just gonna make her a “died young” type of character to explain why siyon-elissa refuses to kill or be separated from her son and vicenta-sima despite Everything
Also I’d need to some up with another name that sounds like a painting reference

if toyang and mercedes was a normal, stable co-worker romantic relationship where you two are still figuring out how the rest of your life will go, then toyang and eilie was a weird hero-worship relationship bordering on infatuation
if toyang and siyon-elissa is a toxic friendship where you both spiral together doing coke in the bathroom because all your aspirations have been choked out by the real world and having sex while completely out of it, then toyang and antonia is when you come out and transition and you realize it's not too late to get clean and sometimes you'll relapse but you can always go back to trying to get better and be with people who want to take care of you etc etc
