A-Yao

Hetalia's China (Wang Yao) in style (and pose from the cover) of MDZS Jin Guang Yao. A crossover I wanted to do for a while, because of their common name Yao, and finally today I did.

highkey fascinated thinking about how we can insert nations into world history and imagine their interactions with those humans who profoundly changed history. like, yao's relationship with the first emperor 🤔 in the past, i used to conceptualise it as a dynamic defined by jealousy; because of the well-known story of how qin shi huang di desired immortality and searched for the elixir of eternal life. yao therefore would be the literal inspiration and instigation for that desire; an emperor desiring to preside over the glory of his empire without end. about which yao would be scornful, seeing it as foolish and hubristic from the eons-old immortal nation vs. human divide, especially from the pov of how we're raised with stories of qin shi huang being a tyrant figure.

but now...i think maybe they're distinctly more of kindred spirits. i think yao back then especially understood that hunger for immortality well: the all-consuming obsession of an emperor—and so, an empire—with how not to end, how not to die, how to prolong his era. because nation immortality isn't exactly a given, especially not two thousand years ago. yes, humans are mayflies next to nations—but wars of annihilation and the likes of carthago delenda est were commonplace. carthage, rome, babylon, akkad all fell didn't they? so, not so much petty jealousy between him and the first emperor but more i understand you the most don't i? i will make you great and without end, through the sword but also bureaucracy and standardisation, and your enemies' children's children will know your name long after their forefathers are dust. yao is somebody whom i think is a chameleon figure with many layers; before security in his power allowed him to cultivate this image as this scholarly, refined wellspring of civilisation to korea, japan and many others, who is as eternal as the sun rising in the east—i think he was very much the opportunistic, ambitious and paranoid warlord the first emperor was: scrambling, fighting and nakedly scheming his way to power, with no promise or confidence in his immortality.

Inktober Day 1: Asian Nation

since china is millennia old it stands to reason that he’s moved past the whole “humans get to grow old while countries do not” whimsy dream that younger countries get (maybe just thinks about it casually like one would think about being an animal, there are more negatives than positives), but i sometimes wonder if he sees his smooth, youthful skin and dark hair and wishes there was a least one wrinkle or grey hair there. his culture emphasizes respecting one’s elders, and isn’t he the most elder of all? yet he is physically in his twenties and has to call those around him “auntie and uncle” or the like.

Meep meep

I know Yao should be the one with the most trained body bc of his martial artist background, but the idea that he's insanely strong yet doesn't have big muscles to show off is funny.

Alfred is still obsessed with his weight yet won't stop eating fast food, so he tries to compensate it by going to the gym...To build muscles to show off only, he doesn't need to train actual strength? He's already superhuman thank u.

And Ivan...He stores fat for the winter, it does a funny jiggle jiggle(don't u dare to point out his tummy's jiggle physics or it is Joever)
