photo study!

The image was on pinterest -- attempted to find the accredited photographer, but reverse google image search only led to an excess of what appeared to be repost accounts. :// In any case, if someone knows who took the photo, I would be very grateful to be able to credit them in this post.

discipline is self care

self care isn't just face masks and bubble baths, it's also doing your assignment in advance so you won't pull an all nighter before the deadline, cooking at home instead of ordering out; discipline is an act of self love and care

okay. this is going to be a rough post because i am still reeling from that direct. sorry about that.

but the map of lumiose city for legends: Z-A just released on the official website.

immediately, one thing struck me:

now, this may not actually be the case, but there's a possibility that this is lumiose station, where you take the TMV from lumiose to kiloude in the XY postgame.

why this building in particular? well, it happens to bear a striking resemblance to the famous gare du nord railway station in paris, which lumiose city is based on; and is even in a somewhat similar relative location in the north.

(location on map - may not be fully accurate to XY's map, but in that game, lumiose station is still on the east side of the north boulevard at least.)

(note the shared features: skylight along the ridge, arches)

with that in mind, it's interesting that chandelure is one of the pokémon featured in this visual. of course, it could easily be just a cute little visual gag (chandelier pokémon beside modern chandeliers); chandelure was part of the XY regional kalos pokédex after all.

however, chandelure is also famously associated with ingo, who is famously associated with trains, and appeared in the previous legends title, even mentioning the former briefly during a plot scene.

could this be a nod to them? no one knows.

of course, if the depicted building isn't actually lumiose station, this whole post is moot and i am but a harlequin in burgh's gym. but for now? i am going absolutely INSANE over this. possibly the most hype part of the reveals today for real.

Morning study vibe, but of course I have to do a quick Pinterest scroll to set the mood.

honestly the funniest part of tmagp 8 is the poor ta who had to grade that paper. "see me" is code for "i cannot say 'what the fuck' in the official gradebook"
