giving reijean complete birth charts
i make fun of yams for making frankly the majority of the 104th and the warrior unit aries and leo suns, including Jean and Reiner (would just say "fire signs," but he doesn't seem to gravitate toward sagittarius birthdays). but just because this cast is lousy with the same sun sign doesn't mean they're identical to their comrades! the differences (and friction of similarity) come from everyone's rising sign, which contextualizes the sun for the individual.
table of contents
methodology
their charts without birth times
the charts
🪐 methodology
this project requires three bold executive decisions: (1) birth times, (2) birth years as proxy for 832-35, and (3) birth location as proxy for liberio and paradis.
birth times, to give us their rising signs. this makes up the majority of this post. besides the above reason, sun + ascendant also tells us if the person was born in the day or night since the ascendant is the sign on the eastern horizon at time of birth. someone born at/around sunrise has the same sun and rising sign, for example.
851 in AoT = 1853 in our world. what about every other planet? astrology is not like MBTI; we don't plug in values willy nilly (my killjoy pet peeve? ppl hc'ing moon signs that are physically, astronomically impossible; moon phases and thus moon signs describe sun-moon aspects). i have to pick a real-world ephemeris range in order to limit my freedom of choice to just rising signs. to advance my own indulgent new historicist reading, i'm looking at ephemerides from the 1830s to fill in the rest of these charts, matching the survey corps repo'ing the marleyan scouting ship to the arrival of the perry expedition in the ryukyu islands.
kinda crazy decision here, but liberio = macau, the walls = osaka. the world of AoT is ours upside-down, sure, but the opposite latitude of madagascar is like, saudi arabia, which i don't think this matches because of climate, and iseyama pretty clearly conceives of paradis with more than two northern hemisphere seasons (the leaves on the tree on the hill). these city choices betray my own research interests, but the antagonism between paradis and marley across a narrow sea feels more like japan vs like all of east asia (including russia) throughout history, but especially the late 19th and early 20th centuries. physically, paradis' northeastern position next to marley (longitude) matters a lot. it's why the birth charts of ppl from northern europe are so weird if you use quadrant house systems.
right away, the 1830s give us the outer/generational planets, where Reiner's 2-3 years seniority does make difference for uranus, the fastest-moving outer: they share pluto in aries and neptune in capricorn, but Reiner's uranus is in aquarius and Jean's is in pisces. i don't rly use these unless they make close contact w inner planets though
specific to reijean / what is fanon at this point
Jean's birth year is pretty unambiguous to me with him and Eren as foils: 835, or 1837.
i assume the cadet corps disbands and assembles each spring. winter happens between the reclamation of wall maria and the SC reaching the sea, which puts the events of seasons 1-2 and s3p1 around april or may, and the return to shiganshina arc in august or september. meaning, Jean and Eren just turned 15.
if Reiner is 17 when the 104th disbanded, he's actually two years and four months older than Jean and Eren; for most of the year (august through march), he seems three years older!! that means he spends his 18th birthday w fellow bday boy Zeke, plus Pieck on aug. 4 :) granted they probably spent that time planning to kill the whole SC, but i like to think Bertie threw them a party :)
Tumblr media
birth time / rising sign considerations
do they have a day or night vibe? deadass. briefly, each light "leads" a sect of planets that are strengthened if their leader is in charge. sun = jupiter and saturn and moon = venus and mars; mercury has no allegiance, can go either way (because of mythology; mercury/hermes has to traverse every realm as a messenger). this mitigates "bad" placements or sabotages "good" ones.
also vibe-based: each of the seven classical planets (inner sailor senshi + saturn) traditionally rules two signs, while the moon rules cancer and the sun rules leo. this is often used phrenologically (for racism), but seeing as these men are lines and iseyama speaks about designing them, i think it is okay.
where is person A's sun in person B's chart? and vice versa, and same applies for rising signs and their rulers. for relationships, astrologers sometimes use this to indicate where/how/when partners meet each other.
✨ without birth times
reiner (1834/08/01)
Tumblr media
first glance
from midnight to midnight, the moon is always in gemini; last quarter moon (waning).
both benefics (nice planets that "bring good fortune") are undignified, or in signs that do not serve them; the signs are enemy territory. could you say that's a grand metaphor for RBA on paradis, or liberio on marley? perhaps. for Reiner, jupiter is in gemini (detrimented, and conjoined with mars) and venus is in virgo (fallen). both of these are mercury-ruled signs; aka that flighty little bitch of a planet with questionable loyalties. hmmmmm!!!
but saturn is pretty happy (exalted) in libra.
rising sign impulses
right away, he's one of the most diurnal 🌞 men i've ever seen. yams said in some guidebook that he drew him to look like someone "destined for great things," or something to that effect... and probably like, mere months later, he published chapter 97. so yams is a sicko who loves irony. Reiner is a golden, heroic figure until he isn't, like fuckin HELOS i guess, or apollo...
day birth limits our range to leo through capricorn, with some wiggle room in the first few degrees of aquarius; his chart ruler can be literally any option but the moon
because of his unfortunate benefics and the burden of identity, my favorites are: taurus, libra, sag, or leo rising, so he's ruled by either venus, jupiter, or the sun.
houses that feel reiner
6th house: physical labor, the body in service to someone else's interests
8th house: death, enemies (lol), inheritance (i mean come On); wealth gained through other's deaths—take it as eating the previous Armored, or his survivor's guilt re: Marcel and Bertie...
9th house: long-distance travel, leaving home, higher education
12th house: my favorite house, i am biased, but it's a house of like, sickness, loss, isolation, "self-undoing"; shit Jean has no tolerance for. suicidal blockhead behavior.
jean (1837/04/07)
Tumblr media
first glance
the moon is always in taurus; crescent moon (waxing).
he has an aries stellium (a cluster of planets all in the same sign), which Eren doesn't—he's actually more aries than Eren, who is "secretly" very piscean. Jean's sun (exalted), mercury, venus (detriment), and pluto are all here.
for Jean, the sun is conjoined pluto within 2 degrees (makes us twinsies; i have a sun-pluto square).
he has a fixed sign t-square: taurus moon, leo mars, and aquarius neptune.
impulses
he could go either way, day or night, but my dumb ass wants them to complement each other for no damn reason
for a night chart 🌚, he can be anywhere from scorpio to aries; his ascendant ruler can be mars, jupiter, or saturn.
yams said he drew him to "look" deceitful; in the anime subs armin says Jean and eren both have "villainous" eyes, which makes me favor cap or aquarius rising.
houses that feel jean
2nd house: creature comforts, valuing security
4th house: home, both his dream of having a home in the interior and the formative significance of seeing trost attacked
6th and 8th houses for similar reasons to Reiner. re: 8th house, i think about Connie's "who'da thunk we'd be the new Levi Squad!" thnx Annie!!
11th house: humanitarianism?? like, a good sense of the big picture, very much values life
💕 synastry without birth times so far
Jean's venus is opposite Reiner's saturn: rich and dramatic, arguably negative, but i think it can be good for them because of their different conditions in each chart. Jean's venus hates being in aries, and looks across the way to libra, where it wants to be, where Reiner's saturn is. it's like Reiner can pull out Jean's ooey gooey feelings that are usually obscured by aries, or come out as just carnal aggression. saturn can be patient with all of that, and i think Reiner finds it cute. venus in aries is very fwb/didn't-know-we-were-dating; saturn in libra is more quiet and reliable, to a point—he will get so frustrated!
they both have jupiter-mars conjunctions that are sextile to one another; they're hot separately and together???? i seriously led with japanese history for picking their fake birth years, i didn't know the sky would say they are hot and have great sex. more than that, a sextile is actually... pretty chill and comfortable? they just click, it's more about being in sync, physically (mars) and philosophically (jupiter).
Jean's jupiter-mars conjunction is conjunct Reiner's sun: more cute shit, they just get each other, also Jean's mars just finds leos hot af, so you can apply to this to Jean + all the warrior leos... actually jupiter and mars are quite slow so like, most of the 104th has this, which may be why they trust Reiner so much
the charts!
i'll only talk about their rising signs and the planets that rule them because otherwise we're here all day:
💛 reiner: ~10:00 ☉, 832/08/01 in liberio, marley
Tumblr media
Libra rising ⚖️, Leo sun 🦁, Gemini moon 👯
chart ruler is: Venus ♀ in Virgo/12th house
i like Venus because it feels softer and smaller than jupiter 🥺 e.g., between the two benefics, Venus is a "personal" planet and Jupiter is "social." Jupiter has to be too many things; everyone expects everything from it, the warrior candidates and younger members of the 104th look up to Reiner, he's "Marley's shield," karina burdens him with "uniting their family" (her marleyan citizenship); but he actually isn't all that and isn't suited to it... and I think only people who really really know him, e.g. have strong bullshit meters, know that. imo gabi is getting there early on, since she tells him she can tell he's lying about something, and she and jean are both later decan aries suns...!
i clearly like giving Reiner cottagecore dreams, a small and warm life; as a boy he wanted a nuclear family, and even in the dregs of his mental health, he clung on for the warrior kids. his actual ambitions are just caring and maybe, even more ambitiously, being cared for, and I think that is true to him, not just his Marcel persona.
the 12th house is miserable!! love it there. my more nuanced explanation is it's kind of floating above it all, seeing the relativity of everything, which can feel like disillusionment or liberation or both: Paradis seriously upset his understanding of the world.
Venus doesn't like Virgo/Virgo doesn't care for Venus because there is something quite detached, sterile about Virgo. Virgo is, for Reiner, years of propaganda, habit, "warrior" versus "soldier," all watchwords and reminders at catastrophic odds with his feelings of warmth and acceptance in the 104th—those syrupy, hard-to-name Venus matters that Virgo cannot tolerate.
in Reiner's chart, Taurus, Venus' other domain, is his 8th house: another "dark" house, death and inheritance, guilt, enemies. it also.... is where Jean's moon is.
his Venus squares his Moon, which is a pretty double edged sword. there's something very needy and insecure about these two soft planets making a harsh angle, which, imo, leads Reiner to deeply unhealthy choices to win affection, approval, security—from his parents, from the nation of Marley, from Bertolt and Annie after Marcel's death, etc.
🪐 jean: ~02:00 ☽, 835/04/07 in trost, paradis
Tumblr media
Capricorn rising 🐐, Aries sun 🐏, Taurus moon 🐂; this zodiac doesn't have any horses but his big three is all hoofed
chart ruler: Saturn ♄ in Scorpio/11th house
this seems very leader-ly to me; the 11th house is about community, the good of the whole, a humanitarian concern. also very Levi, imo.
Saturn is the diurnal malefic, so its good qualities are delayed or dampened by being in a night chart; Trost activates him.
Jean's growth from a "selfish bastard who only thinks of himself" is, astrologically, a broadening of what community/11th house matters mean to him. first, it is just himself: getting into the MPs at all costs, Saturn confused in a night chart. but then in trost, in the field, he leads for the first time: being selfish for the sake of people who trust him, using the deaths of others for his and his squad's survival. we see this again in the 57th expedition: he clearly sees his, Reiner, and Armin's role as giving up their own lives for the success of the Survey Corps. and his scope of concern gets bigger and bigger: the future of "humanity" in the walls in the uprising arc, and finally all of humanity.
also in the uprising arc, especially in the manga, I see his hesitation to kill as an 11th house morality, sure, part of humanity's charter, but I also deeply DEEPLY love the slow burn trust between Levi and his new squad: Jean kind of deputizes himself between springles and scary Levi himself. this also reminds me of Jean yapping at Armin about mutinying Erwin during the 57th expedition. it's pragmatism man!!! the will and trust of the collective is a better vote of confidence than chain of command
Saturn and Scorpio are pretty neutral to each other, but Scorpio itself is a wonderfully intense, more mature version of Mars; sorry, but it's manga Rei Hino versus 90s anime Rei Hino, with strong environmental and personal intuition. I've been a Jearmin shipper sometimes, and this is where those two boys are simpatico, imo.
Saturn opposes Jean's Aries stellium, but more exactly his Sun-Pluto conjunction. I'll just quote the astrologer Sue Tompkins here: "The Sun-Saturn type is usually a serious person, tending to take themselves very seriously and to take all that happens around them rather personally." bb
the other Saturn-ruled house in Jean's chart is Aquarius/2nd: that's that fine whiskey in the interior, baby
💞 synastry with birth times
Saturn conjoins Reiner's ascendant: even though he's ruled by a pretty miserable Venus, his 1st house is somewhat lifted by Saturn, a morning star/the daytime malefic made nicer by the sun; e.g., he sees Jean's positive Saturninan qualities before anyone else.
Reiner's moon and Jupiter-Mars conjunction are in his 9th house: the happiest parts of his life happen abroad. also, jupiter rules sag and pisces, respectively his 3rd (siblings, everyday routines) and 6th houses (embodiment, physical work and health): "playing soldier," as annie says, or playing marcel, in porco's judgment.
Jean's Jupiter-Mars conjunction is in his 8th house: enemies to lovers hell yah! see my earlier note about Jean and Leos generally (JeanPikku).
Aries (where most of Jean's chart happens) is Reiner's 7th house, aka the spouse house. Again, Jean's April DOB sets him apart from every other damn Aries in this world/their age group, meaning Annie and Eren. the other mars sign is scorpio, reiner's 2nd house; i try to say it my fic Husbandry, but RBA have their material needs met, see Paradis as a real paradise compared to Liberio'a urban lack.
Capricorn (Jean's 1H) is Reiner's 4H: home.
Jean's 7H is Cancer, ruled by the moon; his moon in Taurus trines that sexy Jupiter-Mars conjunction, e.g. looks directly into Leo.
a jeankasa note
Aquarius and Leo are opposite each other, so a lot of Jean's angles to Reiner's Leo-ness are mirrored/also apply to his feelings toward Mikasa; he really has a type, and it's fixed Suns (...armin?? porco??), the opposition that makes his t-square. but the funnier thing is Mikasa and Reiner are kind of natural enemies, mostly bc of mercury oppositions, which would probably be true with any arbitrary birth years bc mercury is rarely far from the sun. just cannot picture those two having a conversation one on one ever, their only significant interaction is mikasa throwing him onto eren
why tf did i do this
i think for my 57th expedition AU they're gonna bicker about using constellations for navigation. that's it
this was long as fuck mostly bc i felt i had to explain interpretation methods but i am happy to do more characters!! if i do anyone next it's probably them jaeger boys, zeke is sag or pisces rising to me (derogatory/affectionate)

i’m a leo sun, sag moon and scorpio rising. show me love .
…….🤨 fun fact: saying “show me love.” is maybe one of the best ways to ensure that i will not, in fact, show you love 💖 i am half kidding but also no i am not 💖 i may like leos bc the ones i’ve encountered have always been dope people but as a fellow fire sign, i do not respond well to what i perceive to be commands—especially from people who have no authority to speak to me in such a way 😒😒😒 i’m hoping that you’re joking abt that part of the message!! but i feel the need to say my piece regardless in case someone sees you say this to me and thinks it’s acceptable for them to say similar things. it is not acceptable 💖 use your manners 💖 we are adults and on top of that you are asking me for a favor that i have no obligation to perform for you 💖 “please” and “thank you” would have gone a very long way 💖
leo suns can come across as self-absorbed and even arrogant at times!! some of them really are just super confident in themselves, but some of them are using their massively inflated ego to protect the fact that they are actually very insecure at times and are in need of validation and reassurance more than they let on 👀 i obviously do not know which of these resonates with you most because i don’t know you personally, but based on the “show me love.” you sent, i have . a guess or two 💖
however—you are lucky that i generally DO like leos otherwise the rest of this message would have gone very differently !! leo suns at their best can be strong, dynamic, passionate individuals who enjoy taking the lead or at least being very self-reliant! they can be very social people and thrive in settings where they can receive the attention they want and/or where they feel as if their voice, input, and presence matters! personally, i can’t think of a single leo i’ve ever met that i didn’t love, both in person and the few celebrities im thinking of!! they have an almost magnetic energy to me, because they can be so passionate and dynamic and captivating!
a reminder though, to any ppl with prominent leo placements, is that it is extremely important to be humble. if you do the equivalent of meeting a stranger and giving them your hand to kiss or smth….basically asking them to adore/worship/admire you when they don’t even know you…. it is not going to end well. do not let your desire to burn big and bright end up burning several bridges for yourself because people are put off by your confidence which, to them, appears to be unjustified arrogance.
i don’t know much about sagittarius moons (sagittarius is my least favorite fire sign djfjsjd and i don’t have many good experiences with ones in my life) but from what i DO know from my mom who Loves them, they can be very chill!! they have their passions as fire signs do typically, but it manifests in a more quiet way i think. they’re kind of the sleeping bear you shouldn’t poke out of the fire signs to me!! aries and leo placements might be more inclined to retaliate/react immediately to things, whereas sag placements might be more likely to think about the situation and attempt to let it go. a lot of times i see that sag placements are associated with traveling and adventure so this might resonate with you somewhat!! you might really enjoy traveling or just trying new things and keeping yourself excited about life, which is always good!! from what i know about sagittarius placements (and what my mom has told me) they can, at times, struggle to take responsibility for their actions and may not be keen on apologies. if this resonates with you, i would really encourage you to put that Leo pride aside and that Sag reluctance and work on owning up to your actions. people are going to have a hard time wanting to be around you if they think that you might upset them and ever apologize, yknow?
when it comes to your leo sun AND your sag moon, you might at times feel like you’re diminishing your own issues in a sense. your leo sun might be angry abt something and more likely to want to react, but your sag moon might not be on the same page and might not want to react just yet—it could stem from a desire to give said offender a second chance, a desire to let it go/calm yourself down in general, OR a desire to lie in wait, in a sense. you might be the kind of person who waits (possibly impatiently so) to have all the evidence and justification you need to go after someone and once you do, you can be pretty intense! i feel as if a specific trigger for you that might, in a sense, make your leo sun bypass the instincts of your sag moon would be things related to your pride, your image, and maybe how others perceive you. this is a valid trigger!! no one likes to be disrespected! but i would warn that if you are the type of person who finds yourself lashing out when your pride takes a hit, you might be giving people more ammo and access to you than you realize.
if you’re very quick to anger when your pride is involved, people may see that as defensive, as if your pride is a weak spot for you. showing people with not good intentions what gets to you is a sure fire way to guarantee that they will push your buttons about it in the future. maybe listen to your sag moon more in instances like these and pull back ever so slightly to formulate an argument that would genuinely stop someone in their tracks. pick your battles wisely and do not pull punches when you get into said battles. that said, there is never any excuse for someone to disrespect you, so i am not saying you should just remain silent!! but simply make it clear to them whether physically or verbally that their actions were not appreciated and won’t be tolerated. you could immediately disengage from the conversation, you could physically remove yourself, you can do whatever feels right to you. but don’t let people walk all over you!! you can defend yourself without making it a confrontation or an evisceration every time yknow?
scorpio rising is pretty interesting! scorpios tend to be the “suppressed” sign in a way, where they’re very secretive abt their emotions but are feeling Many Many things djfjsjfj but even though you may give off a somewhat aloof vibe, you still may have a magnetism, a sort of intriguing energy to you!!!
your scorpio rising and your leo sun are kind of interesting to me in that your leo sun is usually screaming “notice me love me notice me” whereas the scorpio rising is more inclined to keep people at bay !! tbh this gives me the vibes of people who post on their stories and say stuff like “dont hit me up, only real ones know” or other captions that might invite attention and then sit there and wait for people to respond jsfjskdk but if they did respond, i feel like you’d be compelled to initially avoid the issue to pique their interest further jsjfsjdjsjfjs and to that i say it is Okay To Be Upset abt things and to tell your friends when you’re upset abt stuff!! i very much understand the urge to check how much people actually care about you by doing things like that, but it can put a bit of a strain on relationships yknow? if someone sees your post saying “only real ones know” and they thought they were a real one, their feelings might be a lil hurt at the notion that you didn’t let them in on something they thought you would tell them. esp if they message you and ask what’s up and you initially don’t tell them—that might even hurt more :/// so, yes, just be mindful!!!
(also i feel the need to say that i am not mad at you for your “show me love” comment, but it did rub me the wrong way because, reminder, you and i don’t know each other. a friend of mine could send that in off-anon and i would take it much better because i know them, and i know that they aren’t being serious! so, again, no hard feelings, but pls be mindful of how you interact with people you don’t know!)

☕️ enemies to lovers trope?
EXCELLENT q Ari omg 🤲🏽💖💕 honestly I don’t go around seeking things based on trope (most of the time anyway) so I can’t really name any specific enemy to lover stuff I adore and recommend off the top of my head but the manhua Song of the Long March? Is stunning and one of the best examples of.. maybe not enemies so much as adversaries to lovers I’ve ever seen, and the only reason my rec is not wholehearted is that it’s been on hiatus for years and my heart hurts each time I remember 😭 (It pauses at a decent stopping point especially in terms of romantic development, so I urge anyone interested to read what exists of it! It went on hiatus because the illustrator-author was being taken advantage of by her publishing company or smth along those lines I think, I’m fuzzy on the details) it’s got one of those main couples where they’re just as fun to read about as individuals, instead of those couples where you’re like “I only like you because your relationship is stellar, on your own you’re kind of meh” whdjehhdh lots of political intrigue and whatnot if that appeals to you!
As for enemies to lovers in general... I honestly feel most things cited as examples of that trope are frustratingly tepid and tame ahsjwjs and I wish sometimes that it wasn’t a label ppl were so obsessed with using for that reason! whichhh makes me feel like edgy but it’s true imo! Idk I think about hate a lot because I am full of it (plz don’t take that as a red flag what I mean is I’m 19 and on perpetual fire for various stupid reasons whsjjeh) (also I hate my dad. not the point tho) and I LOVE angry, bitter, always-seething characters so much and it’s disappointing to see their frustration sort of. Magically cured? Because of the power of love? A lot of the times, not because I’m a cynic but because a lot of authors approach that kind of character development kind of lazily imo 😖 like idk when it comes to enemies to lovers esque dynamics if it’s not complex and overwrought I don’t really want it, I’m picky HWJSJJWSJ also controvershul but I love when lines in fictional relationships r crossed! (w/in reason!) its fun it’s spicy it’s zesty (or can be when the author doesn’t genuinely equate abuse and romance or anything effed like that jqjwjw) I also love lovers to enemies... love it when things go sour and never go back to the way they were even if affection is still there... show me horror show me rot etc. u r my fellow Wuthering Heights fanatic I know u know what I mean when I say turbulent complicated relationships are extremely fun to read about GWJSJSJS 🤭

Helloo could I get a romantic matchup for either gender? I’m 5’3 n chubby and very shy. I’m not very academically smart but I’m very passionate about having deep conversations and talking about the world. Got that social anxiety but once I’m comfortable with someone I’m super happy and hyper! I love to just relax and hang out with ppl since going out in public scares me. I get embarrassed super duper easy like if someone looks at me for too long I’ll get flustered. I’m a Leo and INFJ-T. An ideal first date would be hanging out at a cafe or having a picnic, something chill where we could get to know each other! I can’t stand when ppl can’t communicate with me so my s/o would have to be able to do so. (I hope you have a good day/night!!!)
hiii you sound so sweet! i’m having a good day so far, hope you are too!
i match you with...
Tumblr media
sugawara koushi
geminis and leos are actually super compatible!
and suga’s pretty similar to you in personality but balances you out
loves that you’re so introspective and a deep thinker
and he’d be so happy when you warmed up to him and became hyper
you two would spend hours at cafes just talking about anything and everything on your mind
he’s also not big on crowds or parties where he doesn’t know people
so you’d never have to worry about him inciting your social anxiety
suga is the most soothing and comforting guy ever
and he definitely wants you to communicate as much as he does
basically, a secure relationship with the sweetest boyfriend <3
Tumblr media
alisa haiba
i couldn’t find a gif with just her im sorry
a fellow NF in terms of personality type, which works well with you as an infj
she’s pretty bubbly but she’d never make you feel uncomfortable
also, she’s an aries, and signs of the same element typically get along great
thinks it’s cute that you’re easily flustered
but you just as easily make her embarrassed because she gets shy around people she likes
alisa’s a worldly person, so she’d love to have deep conversations with you
i can imagine that she goes ALL OUT with preparation on the first date
having a lovely afternoon picnic with all your favorite foods and snacks
then heading to a nearby cafe for some deep conversations and warm drinks
she’d be great with communicating, so you would always be able to talk with her and vice versa
the best girlfriend!!!

i can’t do math, so i apologise for that in advance.
216 people participated in this survey.
answers were submitted between august 17th and august 21st via google forms.
some questions allowed for participants to choose more than one answer, which means the total might be more than 100% on those questions.
the number of people who chose each answer are in brackets.
if i get asks about this everything will be tagged “fp survey 2019” so if it gets annoying just blacklist it!
the results (with some comments from me) are under the cut!
Tumblr media

3.7% (8) gay
* as this was a question where people could choose multiple options, the total percentage is more than 100%.

anything you wanna say about me as a person/my blog 😳
this was an open question, where people could write whatever they want about me and my blog.
there were quite a few answers and i’m not sure if i should publish them or how i even would in that case, but just know i’ve read them all and cried (good tears, i promise) and i really do appreciate every single one of you so much. 
will try to remember all your kind words on days when i need to cheer up and i will save them and look back at them if i ever need motivation for anything 💖
anything else? suggestions? or if you wanna reveal who you are that’s okay too
this question was another open one as well. some chose to reveal themselves, while some just said something nice.
Tumblr media
notes for myself
in a potential future survey i’ll have less of the “other” option, as it can be hard to group some answers together.
for a potential future survey i will definitely phrase the questions a bit differently and maybe add other questions for a more precise result.
i just generally feel like i learnt a lot - both about who my followers are and also what they think of me. it was very interesting to go through and reflect on!
i’ve only ever done one survey for an essay in school, so making a “not so serious one” was fun and i think i learnt a lot from that aspect as well. might be useful in the future, who knows!

━ ✧ ( nico mirallegro, 26, he/him ) did you hear about generation’s new record ? it’s totally bitchin’ ! isaac carberry was killing it as lead vocalist. people who have interviewed him say they’re really quixotic & convivial, but they can be sort of impish & ungovernable if you catch him at a bad time. a mischievous grin, northern grit, your ex-record label’s offices looking like a jackson pollock after getting your revenge in the form of vandalism.

hello, my loves! — i’m jess, i’m 22 and over in rainy england. i’m recently done with university which gives me a lot of downtime until i find a job so hopefully i can dedicate a lot of that downtime to this fuckin’ rp because it’s gonna be lit i just know it. i’m a huge stone roses fan and 80s/90s-music-obsessed in general so getting to play this character is super exciting for me, so without further ado, meet my trash son: mr isaac carberry. PLEASE HMU FOR PLOTS!
BACKGROUND
born 14th april 1960 in manchester, england to a normal working-class family, isaac was the first born child of james & rose carberry, with a younger sister coming along a few years later. the little family of four lived fairly happily, but struggled financially just as many people did in northern england at the time. 
when isaac was five, his father lost his job as a result of coalmine closures, and times were tough. however, the family kept their spirits high by keeping close-knit, as well as listening to a whole lotta’ music. music was key in the carberry household. it was all around you at all times.
when times would get particularly bleak, his dad would pick up an guitar and play to the kids. he wasn’t very good but watching someone play an instrument and have fun with it sparked something in the eyes of isaac carberry.
tw violence, corporal punishment — during his teenage years, he was a problem child. he was the kid that always got pulled out of class by the headmaster to receive the cane in his office. he could never sit still, was always cracking jokes when he should’ve been doing his schoolwork, etc. it wasn’t talked about at the time, so it went unnoticed, but what isaac was probably dealing with was undiagnosed ADHD. despite this, though, he was a clever child. he had a way with words and looked forward to english class every week, where he would take great pleasure in writing exercises, especially poetry. 
writing was a dreamy, escapist haven for isaac, and this extended to his life outside of school, too. the works he was producing were mostly tongue-in-cheek, light-hearted stories and poems with a recurring “stop taking life so seriously” theme. when he turned 16, however, these poems began to turn into songs. this started to take up a lot of his time especially when he finished secondary school at 16 and went onto sixth form college, where he took music alongside english.
isaac desperately wanted to learn to play guitar, so that he could form some structural melodies to these songs, but struggled with honing the skill of learning an instrument. luckily, when he was 18, he made three friends who could do just that. the four kids would bounce ideas off of each other and hold jam sessions in the tiny little basement of isaac’s family home, but things never went much further than that (at least not yet, anyway.)
isaac decided against going to university, mostly since his family lacked the funds, and instead picked up a full-time job in a grocery store to help out his household’s shared income. 
in 1979, margaret thatcher came into power as the UK’s prime minister, and times got even bleaker. money was even tighter and the working-class situation became an even harder one to be in. the carberry family started sending isaac out on the street after work to sing some of his songs for tips. 
in 1983, aged 23, isaac was in a dark place. no opportunity, no degree, no wealth in the family to fall back on. he ‘rallied up the troops’ so to speak and practically begged his friends to start a band with him. he had plenty of material, after all.
to his relief, they said yes, and were determined to make it work. they were hungry for attention and throwing themselves at any gig opportunities they could get, to get them a bit of money into their pockets. that was it, GENERATION was truly alive and kicking.
at a show supporting another band, generation were noticed by a fellow musician, who took a shine to the band and booked them to support his upcoming uk tour. thus, the band were rising to prominence. fast forward a year and before isaac even had the chance to process it, generation were shaping up to be the biggest band in the uk. isaac could finally give his family everything they needed to better their situation and was having the most amazing time ever doing what he loved.
after independently releasing their own singles, the band got themselves a record deal in early 1985 and released their first full record, a self-titled album. their management wanted to introduce them to US audiences, and thus — that’s how we find ourselves here. 
PERSONALITY
ok sorry for that LONG ass background here’s the nice lil fun part where we can just dick around lmao hey meet my baby boy chaotic aries who is a lovable mess and i will protect him at all costs
literally so much of his personality is inspired by myself lmao we love an aries legend with ADHD but also i owe some of his characterization to the stone roses’ ian brown so if you ever want a look into isaac, watch some interviews or smth because Big Isaac Mood. the last aesthetic in his app references this video
nice, but a fuckin firecracker of a man. intense boi!! he’s a Lot
on first impressions he’s cool and collected and laidback but when you get to know him he can be very exhausting to be around, talks a lot, never tires of energy, etc
has that lopsided, wonky grin that you can’t help but love
lowkey isn’t really overwhelmed by the fame at all, he’s kind of narcissistic in the fact that he??? just feels like it’s really deserved? he knows hes talented jfjhgfjkghf
lowkey maybe highkey a sweetheart
a favourite with the ladies but not good w commitment
has slept around a lot. ladies, fellas, you name it. probably has it in him to settle down someday since he likes the idea of falling in love, but just hasn’t found it as of yet 
charisma literally oozes from him
tw drugs & alcohol / dOeSnT LiKe To sHoW eMoTioNs but then will literally cry w u and pour his heart out if you’re close enough to him or if he’s hella drunk or high on ecstasy 
Reyt fokin’ northern accent, yeh get meh?
man i dont even know can i just post this dumb shit already because this is getting LONG
WANTED CONNECTIONS
ex-girlfriend / groupie — i have this as a wc on the main
best friends will prob be taken by his bandmates but at the time of writing this only one other spot is taken so maybe ill branch out
give me some ppl who just DONT fucking like him
hookups / ex-hookups
someone he can be a bad influence on
someone who is a bad influence on him
someone he’s had beef w in the industry, maybe they said some shit about his band in an interview or something
a slow burn love interest plot................. listen.... gimme the one person he’s falling for and would consider being tied down for. i’d be so soft for that
gimme anything and everything my babies
