Danse du Diamant Masqué
Liladrien Week 2024 | Day Five: Incognito
Béyonce asked the most socially relevant question of their generation: what’s worse? Looking jealous or crazy?
Of course, Queen Bey doesn’t really have a leg to stand on taking Jay-Z back after making all that fuss about his cheating, it doesn’t really teach him a lesson, no? In Lila’s experience, people don’t learn unless they’re punished or suffers some kind of retribution for their crimes. Even the kindest, most well-intentioned people still fuck up when they’re not taught properly, and who can blame them? We’re social creatures, bred to survive in societies, and how can we learn if our society continues to accept us again and again no matter what we do?
Men have it so easy. They can do whatever they want, break however many hearts, dispose of however many girls, and their statuses as mummy and daddy’s shiny perfect example of human perfection will never fade. Men can do whatever they want to their wives as long as they keep earning money, and everything will be seen as A-OK.
Paris’ Diamonds’ Dance is the most inane gala of its sort that Lila has seen. She had attended such events back in Milan and especially in the US – oh, those Americans were crazy about ostentatious displays of wealth –  except they called those what they were, jamborees and debutante balls, instead of this masquerade bullshit.
The venue is nice, Lila has to admit, and so is the catering. The techno-bass music is pushing it, through. What happened to good, ol’ classic Mozart?
White, as far as Lila can see, glossy marble tiles and reflective mirror ceilings and glittering ivory tables. Teenagers ranging from age twelve to eighteen��meanderingand mingling on the monotonous disco dance floor, dressed in an array of blank couture.
The rule is that they could not represent brands, they cannot wear any shade apart from white. This is a serious , very important social occasion, after all, and not an opportunity to push the latest collection of whatever luxury fashion house they’re the brand ambassadors of. But that doesn’t prevent the attendees from showing up in the most outlandish garbs while following attire rules.
A girl ahead of Lila is dressed like a petunia flower, great big sails of ivory, crimp-edged fabric jutting from her rear and hips. Her friend whom she is talking to has a train nearly two metres long, flowing down her back like a cotton waterfall, which she has gathered up and is carrying in her arms after too many people had trodded on it by accident. Lila suspects that the decision was inspired by economic means as well as trying to prevent the foot-shaped stains from showing. A boy, who has tried to ask Lila to dance until she picked up his intentions and repelled him through the disdainful force of her glare alone, dons a top hat and a tailcoat, and is practising his pick-up artistry on two new victims. The most well-dressed person on the floor, in Lila’s opinion, is the man currently sampling from the buffet table, whose wool suit and iridescent coat are so uncomplicated as to be ethereal. But even he couldn’t compare to the King of the ball.
Ah – Lila feels like such a poor Cinderella, with none of the influence and the riches of her peers. Her dress isn’t haute couture, just a slinky, littlecream number she picked up from Ferragamo hours before the event and she did her own make-up.
An entire army of stylists and designers probably sweated over Tsurugi Kagami, her preparation probably started a week ago, with facials and massages and manicures, until she resembles a perfect scarlet icicle.
She sits there at the top of the podium in the ballroom, the only colour represented , a drop of blood in a glass of milk. Swathed in a scarlet kimono, her hair is pinned back by chrysanthemum pins and her lips are such a juicy cherry red, Lila would kiss them herself if Adrien doesn’t .
Adrien, right beside her, in an immaculate, tailored suit and satin tie. He appears almost simple, but of course when you look like Adrien Agreste, nothing is ever simple on you. They’re effortless, celestial, phenomenal. With golden hair and blond lashes the length of Lila’s badly-paintedfingernails and glass skin, Adrien could be twiddling his thumbs there in a white T-shirt for all anyone cares and he’ll still outshine the entire floor. 
FYI, the man with the wool suit and the iridescent coat is the best dressed. Not the best looking.
Read the rest on Ao3 here.

what are your favorite met gala looks, if you have those? could be any year
oh my god okay so i could talk about this all day but i’m gonna choose a masculine and feminine look from my two favourite gala themes and talk about them
2018: HEAVENLY BODIES
this is by far the BEST met gala theme there has ever been . this was the most iconic year with honestly the most beautiful garments . it’s hard to pick a favourite bc there was so many gorgeous ones like shot out to zendaya and her joan of arc outfit that was gorgeous, and blake lovely rihanna cardi b sza EVERYONE tbh the looks were fantastic but here’s two i want to talk about
Tumblr media
chadwick boseman !!!!! rest in peace chadwick you were an icon and i love you :( but this was genuinely my favourite masculine costume that year it’s so regal . it’s simple but the ornate details across the front of the cape and the suit bring this element of delicacy that is just so elegant. almost referential to elements of design in the vatican . the off white suits the undertones of his skin as well had the entire costume been the pure white of the button up shirt it would have washed him out the warmer tone suits him. it’s so gorgeous .
Tumblr media
for feminine i chose katy perry !!!!! al thought he outfit itself is a little basic being just a golden mini dress and high boot, the wings pull it all together for me. the absolute intricacy in the maker of these wings the designer is so fucking amazing . she is THE archangel. the added mesh layer over her dress and sleeves was a good idea i think so that there is some kind of pattern for some added detailing but nothing that’s too loud that would conflict with the wings or draw attention the bodice . this for me is one of the most underrated looks from this year everything down to the colour of her hair is perfect and the haircut itself works so well with this had she wore a wig it wouldn’t created too much going on around the neck she looks so beautiful and the impurity of the colour of the wings moving between shades of cream golds and off whites is so beautiful to me. absolutely gorgeously constructed garment . fantastic .
2019: CAMP
SO many people had trouble understanding the theme for this one just wearing ugly clothes but no girl . camp is a theatrical performance of gender art and fashion . you’re not just wearing something ‘so ugly it’s good’ you’re wearing something carefully curated to display a flamboyant and theatrical performance deeply rooted in queer culture . anyway .
Tumblr media
lady gaga. she fucking gets it . it’s the performance of femininity and sexuality . it’s the theatrics behind her costume, the orchestration behind each reveal and her attitude change with each new outfit she appeared in . it might not be intended this way but the evolution of female sexuality present in her performance from standards of beauty representing the modest neckline and wide hip illusion created by the flowing petticoats towards the modern movement of sexual liberation ending with her present in front of a crowd in clothing that is considered inherently sexual, or ‘skimpy’ having men as the ones who removed each layer of her clothing as theatrics and the performance of sexual liberation and the entitlement to the female body . that’s just my interpretation tho .
Tumblr media
ezra miller . I KNOW WE ALL HATE THEM THEYRE LITERALLT A CRIMINAL . but this fit went hard. the outfit incorporates both traditionally masculine and feminine aspects like the corset representing the feminine silhouette as well as the train a mockery of the masculine tailcoat becoming the feminine train indicative of the blurred lines between modern gender created by a sense of periodic fashion . the mask a hint to the experiences of the queer person hiding their uniqueness their ‘flaws’ and ‘imperfections’ that can be seen as unnatural by those looking upon them . red lipstick hidden by the mask again hinting towards that hidden femininity associated with the queer man . the multitude of eyes as well indicative of the queer persons constant vigiliamce and need to constant be aware of how they present themselves their mannerisms their appearance the way they speak it’s a reflection of constantly watching how peopel perceive you from behind the mask OUGH . maybe i’m reading too much into these.
anyway these r my favourite looks thank you for your time

On the topic of Nina Williams how would you rank her outfits? 🤔 Which are your favorites?
Oh YES I like this question.
Alright let's go!
10. Tekken 6 / Tekken Tag Tournament 2 - Death by Degrees Wrestling Outfit
Tumblr media
The design is a little bit "out there". I'm not a huge fan of the colours. I like that her gloves stand out though. I like her boots and bra.
9. Tekken 6 - "Office" Outfit
Tumblr media
I miss when Tekken used to do a "combat" outfit for the 1P costume and a "casual" one for 2P... I love her pants and sandals. Don't care for the jacket that much, the top part looks much better in the total black Scenario Campaign variation. Love her necklace.
8. Tekken 6 - Biker Suit
Tumblr media
I love that she canonically has outfit changes throughout the course of the story, as a true STAR should. This probably served as an inspiration for her Blood Vengeance outfit.
7. Tekken 7 - Casual outfit
Tumblr media
Kind of hate the shorts and the boots and the pistol necklace, come on you're not a teen from the Hood™ girl, but the tailcoat, top and bangles make up for it. I also like that in the premade version of it she has her other, "bridal" hairstyle. Looks nice to have her hair styled in a different way now and then, she's had them styled the exact same way since Tekken 3!
6. Tekken 5 / 6 / Tag 2 / 7 / etc. - Combat suit
Tumblr media
I used to complain about how she's had that outfit FOREVER but I seem to be using it a lot in 7... A classic is a classic you know?
5. Tekken 7 - Wedding Dress
Tumblr media
This was such a RADICAL redesign. Completely out of the blue too. But then they gave us the backstory that she was posing as the bride to take out the group who was a crime boss or whatever and then when they dropped Anna they revealed it was HER dress. I feel so sorry for Anna but this was a ✨moment✨. Love that Anna had a widow dress to contrast hers.
4. Tekken 3 / Tekken Tag Tournament - Casual outfit
Tumblr media
This is such a look. The pants, the heels, the bra, the vest. Yes! Could I live without the leopard print? Maybe, but the rest of the outfit is so good that it's overly inoffensive
3. Tekken 7 - Blood Vengeance biker suit
Tumblr media
This is a more polished version of the Tekken 6 one. Love the slickness of it all, it's a bit unnescesarily tight. Like Nina has a lot of tight outfits but this looks the most uncomfortable of all! The kitty heels are a bit funny considering all the stilettos she's worn before. Shiny!
2. Tekken 5 - Gold catsuit
Tumblr media
I LOVE the silver / gold pallette with the black details. The leopard print doesn't bother me in this case because it serves as a direct reference to her Tekken 3 outfit so it receives a unique status of iconicness. Love that her back and arms are exposed. The little cropped out "triangle" above her ass is a bit much though.
1. Tekken 4 - Pink catsuit
Tumblr media
And here we have the pièce de résistance! I love that it's hot fucking pink. I love the pink shades. I love the oversized zipper. I love the white boots. I love the metallic choker. I even love the purple gloves that absolutely do not go with the rest of the outfit. I actually recoloured her black catsuit in to these colours in Tekken 7 and also have her pink pink glasses. They need to bring this back.

was bored and couldn't get my pea brain to focus on writing after expending so much energy today so here's some half baked rowan charm "plans" (i use that term very lightly here)
halloween charm rowan
• BANSHEE ROWAN? BANSHEE ROWAN............... BANSHEE ROWAN!!
• banshees are just yassified ghosts so tattered white gown + white hood/veil thingy + some kind of waist corset thingy to rowanify it some more.
• hair MESSY and flying out around his head.
• dark and extremely smudgy make-up, maybe some white foundation as well (i don't think banshees have freckles :( sad)
• arms out pose so big ripped sleeves can dangle and be centred
• face like >:] and general heehoo im gonna getcha vibes
baewatch charm rowan
• beeeeeg sunhat, smthing similar to portia's but with darker colours perchance
• they probably didn't have obnoxious patterned hawaiian shirts in ye olden times but he's getting one anyway
• tiny lil dark plain coloured bikini top underneath bc said hawaiian shirt must be oversized + unbuttoned
• either equally tiny full ass out shorts or full transmasc board shorts. might sketch both and see which i like best
• chunky wedge sandals bc he's apparently been short coded, he can't not remind ppl that he is Tall
• pose..... idk but he will be holding a margarita. would be floating in a big donut but too similar to asra's + hides outfit. perhaps crouching by a rock pool befriending a crab
wedding charm rowan
• sitting SEXILY. legs crossed ass and thighs in full view.
• can't imagine rowan getting married at his ingame age/maturity level so make him look a lil older
• longer hair? longer hair. would be styled like his regular hairstyle but Fancier. thinking braided back like muriel's hair in his route
• white + gold outfit obviously but with red accents... red tie? red hair accessories? red lips? red bottom boots? yes
• white ruffly poet shirt showing off hefty amounts of chest... gold underbust waistcoat or corset w red detailing... frilly ass pants with gold embroidery.... white or gold heel boots... fuck maybe a white w gold or just straight gold tailcoat too he is getting MARRIED he should go all out (but on the other hand i don't want it to just be a recolour of his masquerade fit so we'll see)
• fanciest gold jewellery i am willing to spend time drawing
wonderland charm rowan
• i guess rowan is alice?? only thing that really makes sense lmao
• turn alice's skirt into shorts and her apron into a lil waist corset and we have ourselves a rowancore outfit
• pose + background elements; based on scene from the beginning where alice is falling into wonderland - pose rowan partially upside down/falling headfirst perhaps
• have plot important stuff falling with him; the emerald necklace, cards from asra's deck, myrrh pouch, julian's research, red beetles, etc
fruit charm rowan
• rowan is already a fruit and today that fruit will be a mango. red + green + lil bit of goldish yellow fits his aesthetique to a t
• outfits seem to be modern au + matching the fruit's palette for the most part soooooo... slightly slutty punkish dark academia outfit that's red/green/little bit of gold. idk what that would even entail but i'll figure something out
• pose/background details; sitting legs crossed on beeg half-mango "boat" and holding/eating smaller mango?? idk the composition of these charms confuses my pea brain for some reason
potion bottle shaker charm rowan
• finally i do not have to cook up a new outfit. breathes a sigh of relief
• pose.... idk he'll just be sittin. either he'll be a bit slutty about it or takin a nap against the side of the bottle, i could go either way
• heart shaped red bottle with a gold stopper inlaid with a turquoise gemstone(s) to match/reference their necklace. might have some gorse flowers around the top too. perchance.
• contents of bottle: two tarot cards. sammi. a chibi version of the tower (Uh Oh). the notebook that they scribble investigation stuff/General Thots in throughout the routes. a little flame.
tired so i'll plan out the rest some other time

Just participated in the worst carol service of my life. Here are the Details (totally unasked-for but I gotta let off steam).
There were two adults teaching the choir and the orchestra the songs. Only one of those adults, our music teacher who I'll just call Mr H, was present for the rehearsals at school yesterday and at the church today. He was trying to manage the orchestra and the choir at the same time. While his effort is appreciated, Mr H was woefully underprepared to do all this work and should have asked at least one other teacher to come along and help.
We sang three songs that we'd rehearsed for a few weeks, and four songs that none of us had practised and that some of us (i.e. me) had never even heard in full. (The only reason I could sing O Little Town of Bethlehem was because my class sang it once in primary school and I vaguely remembered the melody.)
The congregation was supposed to sing along with the four songs we didn't know, which helped a bit, but when it came to everyone singing them, no-one thought to let everyone know which song we were singing, they just had the orchestra play the intro and expected us to sing it flawlessly. I couldn't tell which song was which from hearing the intro because they all sounded the fucking same.
Two teachers who showed up right at the last minute, Miss L and Mr B, told me that I wasn't dressed smart enough. For context: I'm a sixth former, so I don't wear the school uniform any more. For this particular event I'd decided to dress in both my smartest-looking and most festive outfit, which consisted of green trousers, a shirt with a leaf pattern, and a red velvet tailcoat (the same one I'm wearing in my profile pic). Apparently the coat wasn't what the teachers wanted. Basically they wanted me in the uniform, which is kind of impossible because I literally don't own a uniform any more and all of my regular clothes are very colourful. Also, what is more formal than a fucking tailcoat?? I didn't change anything about my outfit.
Mr B, who is a bit of a dick anyway, was maddeningly unhelpful for the short time he was watching us rehearse, and spent the whole time barking orders at four singers, who looked royally fed up with him.
Before the performance started, when everyone's parents were coming into the church, I was sitting next to two rowdy younger boys who were spreading themselves out along the pew and squeezing up next to me. My mum noticed, came over to us and told the boys to give me some space. Thanks very much Mum, but that was the most embarrassing thing she's ever done because neither the two boys nor the rest of the choir knew who she was and for all they knew she was just some random stranger coming to tell them off. I wanted to hide under my seat.
Remember those four songs that the choir hadn't learnt and were supposed to sing with the congregation? Everyone was given the lyrics for those songs, but the choir were given different lyrics to the congregation. So we ended up singing them wrong. What the fuck.

7, 24, 25 for history
7. Historical dressing, uniform, or costume?
I've always been a military uniform nerd and my era of interests changed often, but I'm still deeply fascinated by the transition from colourful uniforms to drab, roughly 1900 and onward. There's also something about the interwar years with many new nations springing up and having their own traditions mixed in.
Can't get over Hussar garb of any era, though. Absolute most beautiful and sexy don't at me. Basically 1660s or so until 1945.
If I had to pick something outside of militaria, though, I just love tailcoats, so roughly 1790s until 1850s.
24. Who do you consider to be one of the most underrated historical figures?
I could be predictable and pick some Austrian or Hungarian person, but nah, when it comes to underrated to me, it'd be Chen Jiongming. Chinese revolutionary often unfairly lumped with the Warlords of the 10s and 20s, he was one of the few leading figures to have a genuine desire to see China become a real democracy. Because of his principles, however, he turned on Sun Yat-sen when the latter shifted towards authoritarianism and dictatorship, and that has made him branded a national traitor by official Chinese historiography, both on the Mainland and Taiwan, for decades. He's a fascinating figure and I'm happy that recent trends among historians has been re-evaluating him and his legacy.
25. Who is the most overrated historical figure, in your opinion?
Woodrow Wilson. I don't think I really have to explain this one: Bringing segregation onto the federal level, promoting the Lost Cause myth, Redeemer apologia, a catastrophic foreign policy, and his inability to get the US on board with his own pet project, and so on. Even though he's an historian that made it to the presidency, he's a fucking stain to the profession.

gus hc: when he starts actively working as an ambassador, he makes sure to dress a bit more witchy/flashy in the human realm bc its all about optics and balancing expectations, rlly. its very impressive to anybody who only knows regular ol gus in the BI, bc hes a performer at heart and when he is on ambassador mode he walks and talks oh so subtly different. i also have this very vivid image of him with chin length braids with opal beads at the ends
The images this ask put in my head is making me go crazy. The braids with the opal beads!!! YES YES what a fucking fantastic vision!!!
I'm now OBSESSED with the idea of Fashion King Gus when he makes his ambassador appearances. He never appears in the same outfit twice and every new look is more spellbinding than the last. He completely mesmerises humans because he just has so much ✨️Dazzle✨️
I'm talking like long sweeping tailcoats with elaborate patterns. Moons and stars. Scales that change colour and glimmer in the sunlight. Silk sashes. Flowing cloaks with ornate clasps. Shining high heeled boots which add a good few inches to his already impressive height. Dangly mirror earrings. Jewels on all his fingers. The man can fucking DRESS.
And yes he has a distinctly different way of carrying himself when he's in ambassador mode. He absolutely has his fun with his flashy attire and showmanship but he takes his job very seriously.

What are some of your thoughts about Tsukiyama? I don’t know if your a head cannon blog but I would like to hear some of what you think he’s like
Bro Tsukiyama? my favourite character ever. A real G. I love this man so much (without being overly rabid about him ofc).
These are gonna be a mix of silly and serious so watch out! Also a lot were brainstormed with @tg-headcanons a while back so kudos to them!
-Shuu definitely has more than ten Mitski songs on his playlists at any given time, he tries to hide the truth from Hori. But in true Hori-Tsukiyama hijinks fashion, she's able to hack his accounts and expose him for the true Mitski fan he is. Once he found out that Obama also listened to Mitski, he began to wear it like a badge of honour.
-Shuu can speak three languages fluently; English, French and Japanese. He's intermediate with German, Spanish and Italian. He gets sick a lot because of his shitty Alabama genetics so basically the only thing left to do from his bed is read. He moved around and jumped countries a lot as a kid, both his parents are Japanese-French and he was born in France (where he was taught French and Japanese) then moved to London for a couple of years where he needed to become fluent in English. After finally settling in Japan, his love of languages endured and he began learning others and refining his existing skills just for the hell of it.
-He's red-green colour blind, as was his mother, who designed fashion clothes in her spare time. His mother's taste is what inspired Shuu's, well, let's say, colourful wardrobe. You just know she designed a purple and green tailcoat in like 1996 and went "oh hell yeah this fucks" and Shuu in 2011 gets it out whilst rooting around her old room and goes "HELL YEAH THIS FUCKS"
-Shuu swears but mostly in English. You won't really catch him saying Scheisse or Merde but you'll catch him saying Fuck a lot.
-This man will drink coffee out of a teapot.
-Shuu has every medical condition under the sun. Anaemia, Addison's, a weakened immune system, arthritis in his knees and elbows, developing glaucoma. Any disorder you can name, he'll probably have it. This is because his family's genetics have been assfucked by YEARS of inbreeding, to try and selectively breed traits like Shuu's beautiful, ornate Kagune and fine, silky hair. However, the downside of this is that yeah, you get a beautiful little ghoul but he's bad at existing. He can't even stand up for too long or eat too much at a time without feeling sick.
-The equilibrium of Shuu's body is really delicate and easily disrupted, even by his own cocktail of medication, so he and others have to be extremely careful when dosing it out.
-His prey drive is usually pretty low, and he's able to go through life without being sent into a frenzy by squirrels or birds. However, sometimes, if he accidentally overdoses on some of his medication, his normally low prey drive will spike up. Unfortunately, Kanae had to learn this the hard way. This is why they can't have decorative fish tanks anymore.
-He's got what you'd call an addictive personality in the sense that he's overly compulsive with things. He's quick to get drunk (because of his thin blood) and often binge drinks. He's picky with food because most foods will hurt his sensitive stomach, so when he finds a food that doesn't a) cause him discomfort to eat and b) tastes good he will stop at nothing to chase it down, and will often go for weeks without food because he wants that specific thing.
-Shuu's Kagune sheds, kind of. His Kagune, like most Kagune with tough plating, is made up of the hard outer shell and the softer, mushier underside/inside. If a part of the plating gets too damaged (because Shuu's Kagune is somewhat brittle), it can be pried off, if it doesn't fall of naturally. When this happens, it leaves the fleshy underside completely exposed, so it's not very advantageous. Usually, this outer coating would take 2-3 weeks to grow back competely, depending on rc type and available food, but because of Shuu's weaknesses and low rc intake it can take a month, at minimum. If discarded, the plates will naturally degrade over time, just like human finger and toe nails. Unlike the flesh of the Kagune, the outer coating is not edible, although some ghouls, like those who make jewellery from Ukaku crystals, will repurpose this shell into decoration (think turtle shell décor).
-I think most people would agree that Shuu was born premature, he kind of just gives off those vibes (affectionately). But this mf was so ugly and undercooked that Mirumo used to joke that he was the Eraserhead baby. Little did Shuu know, his dad was going to play the absolute worst prank on him for the first 14 years of his life. Basically, Mirumo filled a photo album with pictures of the Eraserhead baby, was like "Shuu, this is what you looked like as a child". And Shuu believed it, all up until he watched Eraserhead in his teens and was met with the horrible realisation that his dad had pulled a fast one on him.

Rating Genshin Impact designs pt.2!
(part 1) 
Welcome back whales, f2ps, and everyone in between! Since the first part was pretty well received, I’ve decided to continue this series! 
Once again, I am not a professional artist of character designer, I am just doing this for fun since Genshin has a lot of good and bad designs
Aether
Tumblr media
I LOVE HIM!!! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!! LOOK AT THE SILHOUETTE! THE DETAILS! THE COLOUR SCHEME! 
Aether’s design is a fucking GODSEND from those shitty basic male MC looks. Ya know, the ones with dark basic anime boy hair and an outfit that’s about as imaginative as an unborn fetus. 
The use and placement of colours is so nice and I love the details all over him. He looks like your typical kind and princely character, which is honestly how I imagine his personality. Also idk why but I love the fact he’s wearing a crop top, it’s just so refreshing to see an MC that isn’t in a regular outfit or a full suit of armor with a shitty silhouette.
He looks sleek and leaving him in mainly black and other neutral tones ensures that he’ll look good with any element in his lights, gold also works with a lot of colours very well, so nothing ever looks awkward on him. 
I also love where they put the lights, it just works really well. Hell, even without lights he looks awesome, I could see Aether’s design without any of the elements lighting him up like a lightsaber. 
Also, it looks pretty comfortable for traveling, boots, gloves, and he’s gonna be walking and fighting a lot so a crop top is a good choice. The pants are a bit more loose for easier movement and he doesn’t wear too much armour that could restrict him. Love it. 
Overall, I love this design so much, I wish my colour placement was that good, bruh he looks like the friggin sun I love his design so much ;-;
Lumine
Tumblr media
Ok so, I like this dress, and I like the design. It’s not my favourite, but Lumine is really cute and looks super dainty and doll like, but it just doesn’t speak as loud as Aether’s design. Idk I feel like it’s lacking something. I do love her hair though, it’s a super cute hairstyle and is leagues different from other generic blonde anime girls. 
The main gripe i have with this is that i don’t think a WHITE dress with a corset is a good outfit for traveling. There’s also just a lot of weird detail on the dress? Like there’s this weird part in the middle of the skirt where it looks like there’s metal? Just attached to the fabric? 
She doesn’t look like a traveler, she looks like a princess, and I guess that fits given that Aether is the one used in most promotional material, but I think this dress is more something she would wear when she joins the Abyss. 
Lumine seems so cool and threatening as a villain, I think her outfit really reflects that, like I said, she looks like a princess and the cool whites and blues really help with that. 
Overall.... I just don’t know. I don’t like it, it’s really easy to recognize but it’s just not as good as Aether’s. Sorry Lumine 
Mona
Tumblr media
Ok, ok, ok, I LOVE MONA!!! Her colour scheme is so nice and not only is her design pretty, it tells you a lot about her. There are stars all over her, she’s an astrologist, her outfit is very intricate and it suggests a cocky personality, which is pretty true. 
The outfit looks so expensive though??? Like Mona how did you afford this? But it sells the mage vibe so well and aaaahhhh she’s just so pretty! 
Not a lot to say, she’s just pretty :3
Xingqiu 
Tumblr media
I really like the top part and the shoes, my only gripe is the shorts. They look so out of place?? They look like workout shorts and just don’t flow with how elegant the rest of the design is. I feel like adding more detail to the shorts or just sticking with the “young noblemen from the 1800s” vibe and making them longer (and maybe pleated?) would seel the look a lot better. Don’t get me wrong Xingqiu, you work booty shorts better than me, but booty shorts that look like “athletic gear” from Walmart? On a young noblemen/martial arts prodigy? Yeah no, it doesn’t pass the vibe check. 
On the other hand, his shoes and shirt (and tailcoats) really sell his whole rich vibe better. I love how it sort of combines elements of Victorian London and traditional Chinese clothing, it works so well. I just wish I could come of with something as creative. 
I see a lot of people dunking on his haircut but I like it personally, it’s very recognizable. The fact that the right is really short and flat just kind of pisses me off? Idk maybe that’s just me. 
Overall a very good, well thought, and creative design. 
Chongyun
Tumblr media
Ok, next to me loving Chongyun so much, I just- look at his design. There is so much to unpack and I love all of it. 
It combines modern day fashion with traditional Chinese clothing and it just does it in such a natural way and looks so fucking good??? Like the hoodie over the qipao? The baggy pants and the shoes that allude to him as a martial artist? Immaculate. 
Cryo characters all have such nice designs, Miyoho really does play favourites. Like there is not a single cyro character with a bad design, all of them are 1) recognizable and 2) very very very very pretty 
(Also random thought but Chongyun reminds me of a k-pop idol? Like his haircut and the drip? Idk but peak k-pop energy)
His colour scheme is on point because why wouldn’t it be? You can tell that he’s sort of cold and that he definitely has ice powers, the placement is also just really smart. Chongyun has like four colours on him (gold, navy, light blue, white) and yet it’s just arranged in such a way where it’s so easy to recognize and sets him apart from all of the other blue and white characters with ice powers. 
I remember I saw a video titled “why you should play Genshin Impact” after I had finished BOTW, and I saw Chongyun’s design and being like ‘Oh wow, he looks pretty cool’ 
I love Chongyun so much and his design is a big contributor to that, and that’s all I have to say. 
Geo Daddy Zhongli 
Tumblr media
BARK BARK BARK BARK GRRRRR AWOOOOOOGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAA-
Ok Zhongli is really hot. Like really, really, really, FUCKING hot. Like “he simultaneously raised and lowered my standards for the male gender” hot. How did he lower them? Bruh his spending habits, it makes him so endearing and cute I just- *dies*
(Zhongli I have Mora, you don’t need Childe I can be your sugar mommy-) 
Ok so let me start with his colour palette because awooga that shit is hot. Black and brown wasn’t a colour palette I expected to love so much but here we are. He definitely looks like he has earth powers, and it’s so nice. I have never seen any character who have brown in their colour palette, even if they do, it’s just their hair. 
And the fact that he’s wearing an elegant suit and yet has pauldrons? I love it so much. It speaks to him as a gentleman and a warrior, which is literally his entire personality and I love it so much. 
Once again we have a character who combines Victorian London vibes with traditional vibes and it is amazing. Like the tassels and the dragon motifs? The long ass tailcoats that aren’t practical for fighting but GOD are they hot? Yes. Yes to all of it. I just wanna tug on his lil tie and smooch him. 
I love how they just added yellow on the inside of his tailcoats, it’s really nice and helps break up the dark colours of his outfit I love Zhongli so much he is my comfort character and everything I don’t deserve :’)

1. i picture gijinka kirby as having a different outfit design for each game because my love for designing clothing is rivalled only by my desire to make my own life needlessly difficult
2. in EY fluff has a brand new pretty outfit appropriate for each region (a beadwork-laden poncho and cowboy hat with a fire-and-gold colour scheme for hot land, a pastel tailcoat and fluffy cravat studded with cute charms for treat land, etc.)
3. kirby has one (1) cute pink sweater stitched with navy blue thread, embroidered with a glittery starry pattern.
4. they probably do not change it and it just gets progressively more gross and ratty to pince fuck’s horror

Instead of drawing normal dumbass doodles, I’ve been redesigning Axel’s winter clothes because I have a story beat planned where he realizes he looks like a tourist (and is also kinda hard on the eyes and rough ‘round the edges) so he gets a new look and starts to actually work out his problems instead of trying to drink them away.
...Not that we’re gonna get there anytime soon, lmao. (A) is his current look, so any of the others are fair game! I dunno which one I’ll stick with, or if I’ll change the colour of ‘em, but these are some fo the ideas and idea sections I’ve had.
Each outfit is explained under the cut I guess? Just for funzies tho.
(A), again, is his current winter outfit. It’s his default look (the one in the bottom left corner) with just a white winter coat overtop of it. He really looks like a guy who knows nothing about cold weather (he doesn’t) and is for sure not local in the slightest (he isn’t), and even possibly not from the mainland given his lack of knowledge about the weather there (he’s an island boy). Given Axel himself has a bit more of a rough appearance about his face, stance, and voice, this all adds up to looking like a guy who’d shank you in an alley and no one would be able to catch him because he’d vanish back down to the rat hole south that he crawled out of.
(B) is kind of a more rogue-like outfit with a cloak. Axel knows how to mask himself in the snow - dress in white clothes - and with his darker coat with white cloak he can both mask himself in the snowy wasteland and the dark alleys aroudn Ten Towns. Red is an accent colour in Axel’s look so I highlighted the coat with red, and I just keep using black fur in any of these coats because it matches his hair, lmao.
(C) is more akin to what I think a noble would wear, being a more royal blue with a tailcoat. Not saying that it doesn’t SUIT Axel, but it looks a little strange in comparison to his usual outfit - which is the whole point. Axel, not wanting to be thought of as a rogue and a thief, dressing like a nobleman, would not arouse as much suspicion as he would dressed as a pirate or a thief. Also, even though his accent colour is red, not blue, I think Axel looks cute in blue too!
(D) is pink and adorable. The look is gender neutral - fuck anyone who says otherwise - and it really contrasts Axel’s stern look and rough features, being a criminal and all. However it also compliments his responses to anything cute - like cute animals, flowers, ribbons, and that sort - and accents those actions more than his more suspicious and criminal ones. Also, if a criminal kicks my ass in a cute pink look, that’s just hot shit.
(E) is more based on mideval clothing, being in darker dingier colours (accidentally for the red at least), and matches more towards the mideval “high fantasy” vibe that seems to slip into D&D and other fantasy things. Albeit it... doesn’t really look great on Axel, but it’d be in character for him to dress dumb. Have you seen his default outfit?
(F) for respects is based on Cadeuces’ outfit from Critical Role. I don’t know what else to say. I love Cadeuces’ winter look and thought it might suit Axel, and look! It does. Being turquoise and black, however, makes it more like a thief from the more tropical climate instead of a catetaker of a forest, of course, but it also leaves plenty of room for styling up the outfit with designs, you know?
(G) is what I like to call the gender ender. Axel’s a cisgender individual, sure, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t more than comfortable wearing a frilly skirt, ah? He might be wearing pants underneath it, but that doesn’t mean shit. He could also pull his scarf up and, upon hiding the lower half of his face (or shaving for once), no one would be able to tell his gender from appearance alone. I mean they can’t already, but there’s always those heteronormative people out there.
(H) is kind of a sailor’s outfit, like a captain, which is what (spoiler) Axel is. He looks quite nice in this outfit, and it gives off less of the ruffian vibes of his usual sailor outfit. It’s the sort of look Axel would be drawn to, but at the same time, isn’t that far off his usual outfit so he may still look a little rough around the edges for intimidation’s sake. He is proficient in intimidation, after all.
(I) is... yeah. If you know Hyrule Warriors; Age of Calamity, you may recognize it. Zelda’s winter look. It is near-exact to what I’d picture for Axel, albeit I gave it black fur instead of white fur as per my usual thing with him. The pin is the symbol of Valkur, the main deity that Axel irritates and/or complains at, but other than those two changes it is literally just Zelda’s winter clothes from HW;AoC. Nice.
(J) is a simpler look, going for a sort of double-coat thing with a cloak overtop that more so matches the “fantasy” vibe than some of the other ones, but at the same time, I find that it is the most plain-looking of the designs. Which, in Axel’s case, might be the best option given he is a thief after all.
But who knows, I may just draft up a whole new look for this dumbass. I love drawing new outfits for my idiots!

Roll The Dice
(I'm so hyped for Quackity's arc, so I thought of this real fast. Enjoy :D)
George stared at the large, gaudy casino that stood in front of him. Where was the time to build this? How long has he been sleeping for? George looked at the crumbled up note in his hand and reread it.
He was positive Quackity wanted to show this casino.
Hesitantly, George stepped in. He was almost blinded by the bright colours, most he didn't recognize because of his colour blindness. There were gambling machines lined up in corners of the place. There was a bar at the south wing. A bathroom was somewhere.
George was amazed by the exterior but he was truly amazed by the interior. His amazement didn't last long when the lights went out. He began to panic. Looking around wasn't going to work, it was pitch black and he couldn't even see.
He was startled one more time when a spotlight shone at a poker table. He heard a familiar voice.
"Hello....Gogy."
More spotlights lit up a path to the poker table. George staggered across the path.
"C'mon, man. S'down! I won't hurt you, you're my friend."
"Uh, okay then."
Whatever it was, it pushed George unto a chair and brought him closer to the poker table. From the dark, Quackity came forward. Big Q dressed marvelously with a black tailcoat to cover a blue waistcoat, black pants and a polka-dot bowtie. A scar traveled down his right eye, rendering him half blind.
"I'm gonna lie, Quackity. I never knew you had good fashion taste."
"Don't fucking insult my clothing, you fucking bottom."
The two had a good laugh. Then Quackity silenced their laughter quickly, which scared George a little. He realized how much his friend has changed since he last saw him. He seemed more....serious. Not like that was a problem or anything. The air felt stagnating as George uncomfortably shifted in his chair. "So, uhhh, what did you call me here for exactly?" George asked as he looked around the barely lit room. "To have a trade, of course." Big Q replied briefly. He smirked snarkily. He did sort of feel bad that he was scamming his friend, but he'll apologize later. Right now, he has George where he wants him. He's going to get all of George's money.
Five, large dice floated behind Quackity, his smirk turned into a beckoning grin. George was taken a back. Talk about putting on a show. George relaxed for a bit, but was still terrifyingly mesmerized by the floating dice.
"Roll the dice, George. Let's see what we can trade for, amigo."

Camille, (Is Lin Beifong)
Honestly turning into an old lady these days. Every time I think, ‘Who was the last champ again?’ it takes me fifteen minutes to come up with an answer. (My first thought is always Diego.) Then I always tell myself, ‘Well, that ain’t right. Wasn’t it what’s her face, the horse one?’ as I sit in my room playing Rell.
Now, shall we, darling?
Tumblr media
Right off the bat, this splash is amazing and I might be in love. The pose is dynamic, and honestly just so cool. (Been watching The Legend of Korra twice in a row and every time any of the metalbenders use the cables I’m so 😻.) Sleek, sexy, refined, elegant. Befitting of a Piltovan lady, distinctly feminine but not too pretty, which fits so well for this character.
Normally I prefer characters with some colour, but here Camille pulls off all these wonderful, delicious shades of grey like no ones business.
The golden accents are delightful to the eye, but they don’t take away from her legs the rest of her outfit. Instead they add a certain dangerous intricacy.
I really like how her the tails on the back gives the feeling that she’s wearing a tailcoat.
Outfit aside, Camille is in my opinion one of the S Tier character designs in League of Legends. (This actually makes me angry because Camille is the second last Piltover/Zaun champion. Seraphine was released two years later, and we all know how much I loved her design. Fucking Riot.)
Part of the reason I truly think she is one of the coolest champions designed is in large part due to her fighting style. As I’ve mentioned above, I go nuts for the cables. But her foot glaives are an idea I was not partial to at first. Now I think they’re brilliant, and rather unique. They are exotic, but they’re all very Camille. I cannot express how much I love the idea of her fighting style, and how she uses the cables I’m conjunction with her foot glaive.
Her in game model is is on par compared to some of the others I’ve seen:
Tumblr media
The blue grey reminds me of mist, secrets kept and of course shadows. Deadly, dangerous, steel shadows
Tumblr media
Camille’s Wild Rift model is not too different aside from the colours. In general I tend to prefer the cleaner models on the mobile game. In this case I don’t. I do realize that the colours are more accurate to the splash art, but I still prefer her LoL counterpart. The black and gold contrast much more here, making it seem bold. In some ways, Camille is, but I’ve always pegged her as more subtle. The blue mist serves her well, though it is more so a matter of opinion.
One of the things they did rectify here was her hextech heart. In her LoL model, it’s just black, but here it’s blue.
Another was her body proportions. To a certain extent, I can understand her not looking entirely human. She’s changed herself so much, and it shows, but I’ve always felt her thighs and waist were somewhat exaggerated.
Overall Camille is 11/10 in my books. She gets a pass. So cool. So deadly. So Camille!
Tumblr media
P.S. Listen to Camille’s theme if you haven’t. Do it. Do it now.

Anxiety
She pulled her tight suit jacket down, flattening it against her lean body. Taking a deep breath, she strode through the elaborate iron doors and into the brightly lit hallway. Her eyes squinted slightly as she made her way into a large ballroom, instantly hit with the sound of music that must be hundreds of years old. Her breath hitched in the back of her throat as she saw all of the bodies mingling. Touching. Blending. She wanted to turn around just from that sight but knew that she had to stay. For the group.
         Emerging from the elongated staircase, the small girl noticed as everyone’s attention drew to the figure. A lengthy tailcoat cascaded behind him as he sauntered down the staircase, a dainty hand gracing the banister as his eyes scanned across the room. The emerald eyes landed on the tanned girl and they held a short gaze before the tall man reached his hand out to a female close to him, starting a quick waltz. Everyone watched the pair as the girl rubbed her rough hand together and taking a deep breath.
She felt a brush against her back and she quickly turned. A voice emerged, “oh, I’m sorry for surprising you like that. I’m normally more careful than that.” The girl looked up and saw a pink, scarred, face smiling back at her. She tentatively smiled back, “it’s okay sir, it was just a little startle. I’m sure that I’ll be fine.” The taller man sighed and held out a soft, yet shaking, hand. He locked eyes with her, “would you like to dance?” She nodded and took his hand as he pulled the girl into the centre of the room as the music picked up slightly, “I haven’t danced a lot before, excuse me if I’m a bit clumsy.” The man took one hand and placed it on her hip, “oh it’s okay, I just want to dance. Doesn’t matter how good you may be.” She smiled brightly as the man spun her around, her jacket flapping slightly at the ends. This isn’t what I’m here for. Then why do I feel as if I have to stay with this guy?
Once the song comes to an end, the man bows to the petite girl and she smiles. They wander to a corner of the room and the man leans against the wall, “that was quite fun, don’t you think?” She nodded, a small laugh coming from her throat, “yes it was. But I do need to ask, why are you here? You don’t seem to be any form of royalty.” He raises an eyebrow and pulls the girl into a separate room, “you don’t seem to be any form of power either.” Her eyes widen, suddenly feeling inferior to the man as she sees his eyes gleam while he takes in her posture. He straightens himself out and pats his coat down. He begins to pace around the room, running a hand through his fine and dark hair. The girl pulls her jacket around her body, taking a deep breath as she watches as the man slowly tries to figure his situation out.
The man ran a hand down his face and a big smile erupted after. He held his hand out to the girl, “let’s start this again. My name is Gregory Harris. I’m the mayor’s grandson.” Her eyes widened as she took the man’s hand in a firm grip and shaking it. She smiled politely, “I’m Cassidy. Cassidy Harper. I came as a request of my mother; she works within the law a few towns over. She wasn’t feeling too well so I offered my time instead.” Gregory nodded his head, eyes perturbing through Cassidy’s bones. He turned suddenly, “so what is the name of this town that you come from? I have been to every town around here, my father would force me to come along on political business.” Cassidy bit her lip and began to reach into her pocket. He growled, “answer me soon, young one. I don’t think you’ll be very appreciative when I call the guards to escort you out.” She walked over to the man, pulling her jacket off and dropping it to the floor. She placed a hand on his chest, “okay I’m not here for my mother. Truth is, I have been admiring you from afar for a good while now. I had a feeling that you would be here tonight and just had to take the chance. You understand?” She batted her eyelashes and smirked as his cheeks grew slightly rosy.
One of his spindly hands pressed against Cassidy’s throat lightly as he pushed himself against her. The smaller figure now found herself wedged between this towering beast and the cold, firm, wall. She groaned from the intimate contact as Gregory smirked, “I do understand. I understand that you’re a lying bitch, Cassidy Brown.” Her eyes widened as she felt a hefty impact into her stomach and let out a quiet cry. He brought her back into the ballroom, everyone too occupied in their festivities to consider Cassidy’s state. It felt like the room was closing in on her as she was brought to the main hallway and shoved forward. She slowly turned, “what the fuck? How do you know my name?” He smirked, “that’s my little secret, princess. Now, run along before my dear grandfather arrives. We wouldn’t be wanting a homicide to ruin this majestical day.”  Gregory stared as she ran out and gasped as the fresh summer air hit her pained face.
Cassidy stumbled out, back into the streets. Streets that were now bustling with energy. She could feel the warm liquid slowly travelling down her torso. Just keep walking, the girl thought as she pushed past crowd members and mumbled her apologies. A few of these people grumbled as they felt the faint touches of Cassidy’s hands. The girl stared across the street in pure shock at what she had just heard, trying to think of the logical way to approach the situation. Breathe Cassidy, you’ve been in this situation before. It’s nothing different than before. She thought of the man’s smirk as she felt the cold blade enter through her skin. Her hair stood on end as she felt a tremble rattle down her spine as she continued moving.
Cassidy stumbled toward a large, iron, gate and forced her way out. She walked down the dusty road until it split off into a small passageway. As she made her way down this darkened passageway, she noticed the sky slowly merging into a haze of pinks and blues and oranges. She was still trying to control her breathing as she stepped the way that she had memorised from years of pain. She heard the voices in the tunnels and tried calling, but nothing could come out. Just need to get to Brook. She was trapped and could never escape. It was a feeling unlike any other that the girl had ever experienced, no idea what to think or how to react. Her legs gave way and she fell into a nearing wall, groaning in pain. Placing her hand around the handle of the blade that had protruded through her body, she yanked the cold steel from her torso. In an instant, the knife clattered on the ground as some blood trickled around it and coloured the ground with her life.
She tried to crawl. She couldn’t. It was as if someone had tied her body to the ground. Yet it also felt as if there was a steel weight laying on top of her chest. She could only take small gasps, tiny intakes of breath. Couldn’t scream, not out loud. It was an electrifying sort of pain, one that Cassidy would never wish upon anyone. No matter what they did, she could never do that. Finally, she managed a small croak as she felt the tears stream down her face. Tears? That’s the type of pain she felt, enough to make her weep. Or maybe she was realising her fate. Please find me.
Breathing became harder the moment the crying began, it felt impossible. Felt like she’d never breathe again, never move again. She really felt trapped, isolated from the whole world. If you had tried to ask her in that moment, she would not have been able to tell you where she was. It felt like that part of her brain had shutdown, as if her body had just gone into a lockdown. Protecting what was vital, and nothing else.
Voices appeared in her head. Blamed her, poked at her, protruded every thought that she had ever had. She tried once more to scream, and suddenly the whole world stopped. She could see people run to her (Brook!) but was unable to comprehend that it was real. Her weeps turned into wails as she was surrounded. They stared at her, and she knew. She knew what they were thinking, at least that’s what she’d been convinced. Breathe, goddammit. She still couldn’t do it; she was physically unable to muster up the energy to take a full breath. The people around her, her friends and colleagues and acquaintances – strangers -, all looked on at her with eyes filled with a sea of emotions.
How had no one noticed that she was starting to unravel? That they had swamped her with so much work that she had begun to crumble underneath all of the pressure of it. That it had made her take reckless opportunities and jobs. Needed for the cause. That was exactly the reason why no one had ever taken the time to notice. She gasped as her eyes closed and, yet again, it felt as if the world had ended for a few seconds. Then, chaos erupted from the group around her. People running to the tunnels to find water and rags. Others scrambling out of the way as a few picked Cassidy up and hurriedly carried her body back inside; back home.
No one could tell what her condition was, they just had to pray to a god that none of them believed in. They begged for her to wake. There was one girl in particular that refused to leave the girl’s side, no matter how much the others begged. The days would arrive, and she would be there, the sun would dim, and another would enter to check upon Cassidy and her worsening condition. It took two weeks, but those weeks had felt like years to everyone else. So much had happened, so many had died in such a short amount of time. Two weeks before they made their choice with Cassidy. A choice that the other girl would loathe for the rest of her years.
By the time Cassidy had finally awoken, there was only one person sat waiting for her. Her mother. She stared at the figure with tear filled eyes. No. I can’t leave Brook. Not now. That’s when she sat up and looked around. Everything was the same shade. Of grey? But the tunnels are meant to be dark as night. She tried to stand, but still found herself incapable of doing so. Her mother smiled sadly and greeted her.
“Mama, I- “
“I know sweetie, but it’s time.” Her mother held Cassidy’s hand as they disappeared.
Back in the tunnels, you could hear a scream as loud and sudden as a gunshot. A scream as painful as a knife to the gut. Mourning. Yearning. Begging for this to be just a bad dream. For everything to go back to the way it was a few months ago. She knew the truth though. She knew that her brave girl had just died in front of her, and that she could do nothing to bring Cassidy back. The weeps came soon after that, echoing one of the last things that Cassidy had ever done before she took her last breath.
Others screamed in anger, unable to control the emotions that were ready to bubble and burst straight out of them. One collapsed to the floor, unable to process the situation. Some remained silent as tears trickled down their soft cheeks, begging for a miracle. Praying again to that god that they had never had any faith in until now. They had left their best girl behind, and now they were paying the price. The price of a life. But still, it hadn’t stopped the cause. All of their issues were still present, and life quickly went back to their normal. At least, it did for most of them.
They buried their friend near the tunnels, beside a calming stream, and tried to move on. Soon, weeks had already passed, and no one was really the same. Those weeks quickly turned to months, and most of these people had tried to move on. Or they were just blocking the girl’s existence from their mind. Anyway, this was nearly a daily experience for some. That’s exactly what they were fighting for, for people to stop the killings. The murders. The brutality. They will fight for those who have died during these times and they hope that Cassidy will watch over them in pride.
