We all know life on Alternia is hell, and in many ways it’s even worse for cloistered jadebloods, being stuck for the rest of their lives in a cold dark cave with probably not much to do besides work. Being in such close proximity to the same people 24/7, they probably hate each other more often than not, but I like to think they still find little pockets of joy with each other in between everything

They make up and tell stories, they find a way to make rudimentary instruments out of the materials of the cave and sing songs, both ones they made and ones they remember from their old life, they dance, certain games like hide and seek work just well enough with all the nooks and crannies. They'll find creative ways to spice up whatever food they have/are given, reenact movies they've seen, write letters to each other even though they see each other every single day, play endless amounts of 21 Questions or Never Have I Ever until they know each other inside and out. They write down and make traditions out of all of this to pass on to subsequent generations of jades that come in, in an attempt to make their lives just a little bit better than theirs was. Their lives suck, but they still find ways to make it bearable

Jade blood icons! Free to use if not on my DNI!

i don't know what happened here, there's a message there but it won't display in my inbox here.

anyway, all of my daraya's use batkind and she'd probably get too antsy to use a way smaller pestle, especially if a high blood

The lack of Tyzias x Daraya content online is abysmal so I decided to fix that one piece at a time.

Tyzias will eventually see that she and Stelsa don't align on what's fundementally right/wrong and they'll break up, I swear it. Daraya is RIGHT THERE ZIZI!! I will not be taking criticism on this ship lmao

Bronya and Daraya... I lobe them <3

Afterschool Shenanigans

I’m reading through the extended zodiac traits for a few signs we have trolls for (namely Daraya and Lanque bc I’m predictable) and some of these descriptions don’t really seem to apply to the characters?

Something under the Prospit description says “… Prospit Dreamers are less rebellious than they are adaptable-instead of struggling against authority, they will find a way to coexist with it.” Which is… very much Not Daraya.

And the entire description for Life (Lanque's aspect) just does not seem to fit him at all, except for the last part, "At their worst, the Life-bound are passive aggressive, and pushy-..."

(Arguably, the bit about them being "deeply empathetic" could apply to Lanque, he just uses that power to Cause Problems On Purpose rather than use it for good.)

Then Again, we didn’t get to see very much of them in Act 2. I’m basing a lot of the above off their friendsim’s personalities, which are only dubiously canon/even exaggerated.

HOWEVER

The description for Hope (Daraya’s aspect) says “They do right for right’s sake…” but Daraya is very clearly apathetic towards the trial in Act 2 and doesn't really care about finding the culprit.

And the description for Jade signs... hoo boy.

"... Jade Signs can often come off as timid or doormats, when really they just prefer to come at conflicts in a less combative way."

"Naturally loyal and loving..."

"If all of this makes Jade Signs sound soft and nurturing, they are,..."

Does any of that sound like the Lanque and Daraya we saw in Act 2? I think not.

And I feel like some people might take that as a sign of poor/inconsistent writing, but I like to think of it as more like... Alternia/Sgrub/Paradox Space tries to assign roles to people, but those roles are just arbitrary bullshit that mean next to nothing. Although, that take throws hundreds of thousands of words of (very good) classpect analysis out the window.

Alternatively, their non-alignment with their sign/lunar sway/aspect is just another result of the way Alternia's culture twists people around into their worst selves. The "at their worst" descriptions for both Hope and Life could apply to Act 2 Daraya and Lanque.

Obligatory disclaimer that I'm only looking at 2 of the 38 trolls we have (and it's going to stay that way because I don't feel like reading and analyzing 36 more signs) and this is probably not super representative of the whole picture. (And I am aware that some parts of the descriptions DO fit them)

Idk, just an observation! I'm just throwing words around right now, this got longer than I thought it would!
