am i a bit sad that almost nobody regularly wears updos like this anymore? yeah, i'm a bit sat that almost nobody regularly wears updos like this anymore.
one thing that always kind of baffles me when I read Kanej fanfic is when people write Kaz not knowing how to braid Inej's hair
SOC takes place in heavily fictionalized late 1800s world and the boy grew up on a farm and then helped run a gang in a port city, he definitely had to learn knots and rope-braiding at some point

I think it’s sooo funny that they tried to make ren some “rugged, carefree guy who doesn’t give two shits” but gave him braided hair. No man with multiple French braids is low maintenance, come on now.
like the kayfabe is all 'oooh I'm the epitome of masculinity, I'm better than you' and then they'll not have any body hair
is it for like, injuries that they can't get hair into them?
i fear it absolutely has to come down to the Everybody Is Beautiful & Nobody Is Horny body image 1000 pecs per frame of it all </3 what ARE we doing to our beautiful queens.............

Y a n k s his braid just to be an annoyance to him. Just because he's the Outlander Hero and he's made sure that they hold themselves accountable for all the sins of their past life, it doesn't mean that he's spared from Ayumu's antics.

If someone told Aether that within his stay here in Teyvat, he would meet a puppet during the puppet's stay in a mysterious yet undoubtedly suspicious organization, face this aforementioned puppet several times during their stay, get absolutely smoked during one of those encounters, watch the puppet ascend to "godhood" before gaining his turn to smoke the puppet, then see to the puppet's new life and reception of new life and purpose - he probably would've told Lumine to stop partaking of every new recreational herb they stumbled upon during their journey. If reconciliation of the puppet's past and present lives was also part of that, well... to be fair, thinking he would be alone on his journey through Teyvat wasn't a thought in his mind until coming here either.
Such were the thoughts that shot through his head when yet another yank was landed on his braid, long sigh replacing the usual yelp when this had been continuing through almost the entire morning. Apparently that wasn't the reaction that the other wanted either, groan leaving from Aether this time when Ayumu doubled down and gave another yank to his braid. Shooting his hand back to grab the other's wrist (to keep the other there for sure, Ayumu could be a sort of flighty guy whenever it was convenient), he turned around to face the puppet.
