Reaction or headcanons please. Remember the hot spring ep? Imagine if the boys had a girlfriend who got to join the trip. How would team Too react if Momoi teased them by declaring "I got to see your girlfriend naked before you did!" ?
Aomine: "Hah?! And you're not gunna give me the details?! I thought we were childhood friends."
He'll start pestering Momoi on all the things she saw; how big your breasts were, how thick your thighs were, were you shaved or natural? How intimate his line of questions are has her completely red and she yells at him for being a huge pervert. It doesn't phase Aomine however, and he simply says he'll just have to find out for himself sooner or later. The way he smirks and licks at his lips when he says it is downright lecherous.
Imayoshi: "Hmm? Are you so sure about that?"
Imayoshi has a knack for being able to turn conversations around on people. He starts saying things to Momoi that would imply he's already seen you naked — perhaps he's done more than just see — and it starts to make her flustered instead. When he starts describing, in detail, the cute little beauty mark you have on your inner thigh, she covers her ears, red in the face. She doesn't have to know that he was lying and just making an educated guess.
Susa: "Well, yeah, I guess that's only natural it would happen that way."
Susa is a bit more logical in his response. Of course Momoi would get to see you first, considering the whole hot spring situation and the fact the both of you were in the same bath, away from him. Still, a small pit of jealousy forms in his stomach. He'd never force you to show him faster than you were ready, but of course, now he can't stop his imagination from running wild. He starts daydreaming about what you must look like.
Wakamatsu: "S-So what?! That's not an issue!"
Momoi simply bringing up the fact that you were naked just on the other side of the hot spring wall from him has Wakamatsu going slightly red. He's even more embarrassed when he gets called out for not having seen your bare body already and retorts with flustered yells that he wasn't as big of a horndog as some of his other teammates. Still, he can't help but feel jealous that Momoi had seen something he'd only been able to imagine so far.
Sakurai: "D-Don't tell me anything!"
In front of Momoi, Sakurai is downright embarrassed at the insinuation that she'd seen your more intimate parts before he did. He's covering his ears, trying to block out all of her teasing remarks and even starts making noises to drown her out when she starts describing what you look like — he doesn't know that Momoi is lying about the details she's sharing. Later, he's a bit pouty about it in front of you, but doesn't want to admit why.

The idea behind this set of images (there are 6 total BTW) is duty, and Kushinada feeling duty towards her people, Susa, and Uzume. Here's our twitter post about it: https://twitter.com/GoldenSunArt/status/1654273604433969154/photo/1

Empire Achéménide
À l'est des monts Zagros, un haut plateau s'étend vers l'Inde. Alors que l'Égypte se soulevait contre les Hyksôs, une vague de tribus pastorales venues du nord de la mer Caspienne descendait dans cette région et traversait l'Inde. Alors que les Assyriens avaient construit leur nouvel empire, une deuxième vague avait couvert toute la zone comprise entre les monts Zagros et l'Hindou Kouch. Certaines tribus choisirent de se sédentariser, d'autres conservèrent leur mode de vie semi-nomade. Il s'agissait des peuples iraniens.

Persian Capitals and Roving Kingship
4. Does Arrian's record mean that Alexander hadn't been on official business for two months or so because of his mourning? Was it also because of mourning that he didn't leave Ecbatana until the winter, or it's because he was resting his army? 5.(not question) I just want to say that I really love your Kampaspe and Kleopatra and really hope to see them more!!! They were both very attractive and, in my opinion, quite rational, unlike many of the stereotypes of women that still exist in literature today. Thank you very much
First, thank you, for #5. I really wanted to present a more (to my mind) realistic view of women in ancient Macedonia, including their own agency.
And yes, both Kampaspe and Kleopatra have major roles going forward.
As for #4, I’m not entirely sure what record in Arrian you mean? But Alexander had gone to Ekbatana for “down time,” to rest his army and provide games, as he did periodically on campaign.
The Persian kings already had a tradition of a mobile court, and three/four capitals.
Persepolis/Parsagadai was largely religious and ceremonial. Kings went there for particular rites and, of course, to be crowned. Otherwise, it wasn’t a proper city, with only a skeleton crew when the king wasn’t in residence.
Susa was the old capital of a Bronze Age empire, taken over by the Persians, and it became the administrative capital of their empire with current records and treasury, whereas Persepolis was largely an archive plus additional treasury. Thus when ATG captured both, he controlled enormous funds.
Ekbatana was the traditional capital of the Medes (cousins to the Persians). So when Cyrus conjoined the two peoples and conquered what would become the Persian empire, he set up a tradition of “roving” king and capital. Hence that ginormous tent ATG captured after the Battle of Issos was effectively a mobile throne room/palace.
Cyrus also added Babylon, the “New York” or “Paris” if you will, of the ancient near east. Culturally, it was distinct, not Persian, but it became a defacto 4th capital. Ergo, when Alexander conquered it all, it made a certain sense for him to choose Babylon as his new capital, rather than continue one of the Persian capitals. It signified a shift in ethnic leadership.
So, Persian kings moved around. They wintered in Susa (and Babylon), then summered in Ekbatana, due to the heat (and mosquitoes) on the rivers. Ekbatana was a better climate, on the piedmont. So that’s why ATG went up there, although he did so rather late in the season, arriving at the end of summer. Hephaistion’s death probably delayed his return south, but it wouldn’t be typical for a Persian king to winter in Ekbatana, if not necessary. It’s cold.
Of course, Alexander didn’t intend to stay in Asia that long anyway, so these usual patterns of movement wouldn’t have applied much to him. Nonetheless, that’s why he left Ekbatana as winter set in. If anything, he was late on the move back to Babylon/Susa.
