What If Choices' Race-customizable LIs Had Surnames Reflective Of Their Ethnicity?: An Experiment Just For Fun (Part 3/3)
Info in Part 1
Part 2
THE PRINCESS SWAP
Derya
This is a special case and not only because Clarke doesn't have a canon surname: the top row of face options are described in the asset files as "Middle Eastern" and the bottom row are described as "Caucasian". Caucasian is used in the U.S. interchangeably with "white" even though the Caucasus region is in east Europe/west Asia and can be interpreted to encompass parts of Turkey.
Clarke's family members (including parents of both face options) all have Turkish names and if Iâm remembering correctly, itâs heavily implied in the text and art that their country is based on Turkey. Which makes the name Clarke really confounding. I wanted to replace it with a Turkish name but I couldnât find anything that sounded remotely similar. So I chose the unisex name Derya because I like how it sounds!!!!!
Devin Rhee
These face options are described in the asset files as âAsianâ. The masc face optionâs haircut leaves me no choice but to headcanon him (and by extension the fem face option) as Korean. What the extremely common Korean surname Rhee lacks in being spelled similar to Wright, it makes up for in sounding kinda like Wright. If you were hearing it spoken from another room. Lmao
QUEEN B
Ian Wang / Ina Wang
These face options are described in the asset files as âAsianâ. As discussed in Part 1, there are not a lot of sound matches in Asian languages or Spanish for King(sley). I did read a theory online that this LIâs name comes from the fact that theyâre the counterpart to the MC who is the titular queen of the series, so I went with the thematic route and chose the surname Wang, which means âkingâ in Chinese and Korean. The fem face option reminds me of several Korean women I know so I headcanon these face options as Korean, although Wang is a rare surname in Korea whereas it is one of the most common (if not thee most common?) surnames in China. So I guess they could also be Chinese?
Ian Reyes / Ina Reyes
These face options are described in the asset files as âHispanicâ. Same as above, not too many Spanish sound matches, king/queen themes and motifs, etc., so I chose the Spanish surname Reyes which means âkingsâ.
ROOMMATES WITH BENEFITS
Drew Yåñez
This one was so hard lmao. These face options are described in the asset files as "Hispanic" and there were not a lot of Spanish-language surnames that are a sound match for Young.
Drew Yadao
Also a hard one! These face options are described in the asset files as "Asian" which is really broad, and they don't look "typically" East Asian to me or like any East Asian person I know. The masc one reminds me of someone I know who's Filipino so I'm going with that for my headcanon. Again not a lot of sound matches for Young just like in general, and I decided on the Ilocano surname Yadao because it was one of the only Filipino surnames I could find that started with a Y.
SHIP OF DREAMS
Theodore Kassavetis / Theodora Kassavetis
These face options are described in the asset files as "Mediterranean", although the wiki does note that there's a scene where they say they're Greek. So I initially decided on the Greek surname Karakostas since it kept the "K-AR-T" sound pattern from Carter but then I changed my mind and gave them the surname Kassavetis because I like John Cassavetes the Greek-American director.
SURRENDER
Reagan Tong
These face options are described in the asset files as "Asian". The "th" sound in Thorne that's found in very few other languages like come on now don't piss me off. These face options honestly give Vietnamese to me but I couldn't find any Vietnamese surnames that matched Thorne and the Cantonese surname Tong sounded closer in my opinion.
UNBRIDLED
Ryder Villanueva
The face option on the left is described in the asset files as "Hispanic", and the one on the right is described as "Filipino". A unique situation here as many people in the Philippines have Spanish-language surnames and some speak Spanish due to Spain's historical colonization of the Philippines, meaning "Hispanic" can sometimes apply to Filipinos. We're touching on a complicated issue of using "Hispanic" as an ethnic descriptor but this post is not the place to discuss that. Sooooo since Spanish does not traditionally use the letter W (?) there aren't any Spanish-language surnames starting with W, and the only surname from a Filipino language starting with W that I cound find was Wenceslao which I didn't think was a good match for Wilson. So we're going with the Spanish Villanueva which has the initial "il" sound . Also means "new house" which I think is thematically appropriate for this book? Idk I don't have VIP so I can't play it yet and I just read the summary.

Thinking about how, at the end of the day, at the fatal moment, the sunset of the Republic, it wasnât Yoda, or Obi-Wan, or even the Chosen One himself standing in the way of Palpatine. It was Mace Windu.
Mace Windu, the inventor of Vaapad and Master of Form VII, the Jedi's strongest duelist, the only person to ever defeat Palpatine in combat. Mace Windu, Master of the Jedi Council and the youngest Master ever appointed to it, the revered leader of the Order. Mace Windu, who forgave even those who tried to kill him, who risked his life over and over again for his troops, who, after 3 years of desperate war, tried to negotiate with battle droids. Mace Windu, who knew the clones were created by the Sith and chose to trust them, who saw every Shatterpoint in the Republic, and loved it still, and fought for it until his last breath, until he was betrayed by Anakin, who he believed in and trusted despite everything.
Mace Windu, High General and hero of the Republic, the embodiment of the Light, the last and greatest champion of the Order, the best Jedi to ever live.
#Iâve said my piece goodnight#donât play with me Mace Antis I have receipts for every last one of these#pretty much everyone agrees that he was the best duelist there was and he obviously won the fight#Anakin's choice wouldn't make thematic sense otherwise#also vader did not defeat palpatine in combat sorry he just grabbed him while he was distracted#it literally had to be a fair fight and Anakin had to be the one to choose to create the empire that's what the prequels are about#Star Wars databank calls him âreveredâ shatterpoint tells us he was the youngest (real) member of the council#Boba Fett (tcw) and Prosset Dibs (comics) tried to kill him and he asked for amnesty and forgave them#literally just watch the Ryloth arc he spends most of his screentime saving his men#in tcw season seven he pleads with the battle droids to surrender hoping that no one else has to die#there's the part near the end of tcw where the council realizes that the clones were created by Dooku but Mace and the rest of the council#trust the clones so much they're willing to ignore it#the scene from Mace's POV in the rots novelization talks about how much he loves the republic and how he was blindsided by Anakin's betraya#because he trusted him!! we see in aotc that he has more faith in Anakin's abilities than Obi-wan#and he defeated the most powerful sith of all time single-handedly#BEST JEDI EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!#sw prequels#star wars prequels#prequel trilogy#sw prequel trilogy#star wars prequel trilogy#sw rots#star wars rots#revenge of the sith#star wars revenge of the sith#galactic republic#pro mace windu#mace windu#pro jedi order#pro jedi

Have mistresses on the brain AGAIN so enjoy a Maria Kaina art dump and my pretentious explanatory tags


#pathologic#pathologic classic hd#maria kaina#where. do. I. BEGIN with this woman#sheâs scared#sheâs a wannabe cult leader#sheâs trying to live up to her mothers legacy#sheâs going to burn down her motherâs town to do it#her familyâs dying#SHEâs dying#it is the right choice to surrender herself as a vessel#but the Kains donât believe in choice; the Kains believe in fate#whatâs it like to grieve a mother while she haunts you? while she tells you youâre next?#whatâs it like to see three separate people who are free. who can form their own fate while you sit there chained to yours?#whatâs it like Maria Kaina. Head of the Kain family?#she makes me SICK#I love her so much#anyway onto yapping with the design#gave her a moon halo (again: inspo from mad.raven)#also played around with her design#ended up merging her Patho classic dress and her Patho concept art dress#mainly because I hold a personal hatred of tight sleeves- both irl and in drawing them#and also because I love love LOVE the whole ribbon sleeve thing being represented of her being tied up by fate#also just because theyâre super cute#kept her red-purple colouring theming though because Iâm quite a fan of it#gave her little glowing spikeys under her eyes- wanted to distinguish her mistress status and I thought bringing in the halo design#elements could be cute#(and now Iâm thinking of not having them on Katerina when I get around to designing her because#*spoilers to 20 year old game*#sheâs not a ârealâ mistress)

Do you ever just lay awake at night, turning over in your head the stark difference in delivery between Hewson's Van saying--steadily, unshakably--"it's just something that's happening to you...happening to us" and Cypress' Taissa saying--imploringly, whiningly--"this was not just my dream, this was our dream"?
Do you ever just turn it over and over, how often Tai tried to scare Van away, and how it only made Van set her feet more firmly? How Taissa's first love was this person who saw a problem fall into Taissa's lap, a problem that was quite literally trapped inside Taissa's body, and decided unflinchingly: No, that's an us problem now? How she refused point-blank to walk away even with blood in her mouth, how she flatly informed Tai "I'm never gonna be scared of you", and promptly turned a moment of pain into a declaration of love? And how this would etch itself into Taissa for the rest of her life? How she'd take these things that worked with Van--with the person Van was, with the bond they shared--and try so hard to run through an identical script with Simone?
Except Simone is her own person. A completely different kind of person. A person who hasn't been offered any of the context, any of the realities going on inside Taissa. So: naturally she doesn't respond the way Van did at eighteen--and will go on to do all over again in her forties. Naturally, she hears our dream as the excuse it is, not as a plea for connection. Naturally, she is scared away when Taissa pushes, and shouts, and begs. Because there isn't blood in her mouth, not yet, but there will be. And they have a son to worry about. And she isn't eighteen and a special kind of immortal, a special kind of romanticized. She's a grown woman with responsibilities, with priorities, with an understanding that you can't fix someone just because you love them. And Tai can't just perform a revival of the play she and Van had memorized twenty-five years later with a whole new performer in the works, and expect it to shake out the same.
Of course it doesn't work. But look at Taissa trying it. Look at Taissa trying to reframe her first love through a new lens. Trying to recast it. Trying to play it through again. Van taught her love was sticking out the blood, shaking off the pain, making a you problem into an us problem. Does it ever just eat at you, how tragic it is, watching Taissa try to shape her marriage around a woman who isn't even wearing a ring?
#yellowjackets#yj meta#taivan#sorry i'm just fucking obsessed with cypress' delivery choice in that scene#it is the most immature we EVER hear tai sound#and it's not teenage taissa. it's adult wife-mother-almost senator tai flat out whining in desperation#it is SUCH a choice#and then after the S2 opener to hear van sound so adult offering a glimpse as to WHY tai would#so pleadingly seek turning a Tai Thing into an Us Thing#yeah. yeah of course she would. because van shared the worst of her#van shared it without allowing tai to dissaude her. van quite literally tethered herself to tai's problems#and tai learned: that is what love is#and tai thought: this is what love is#it's sharing. and giving up on sharing is surrendering the whole thing#and she's lying! is the thing! she's lying to simone and to herself#she's making excuses for doing what she wants to do even though she shouldn't be doing it#but the core of it is Team. the core of it is Us. the core of it is#'if you love me you will be on my side. for better or worse.'#because that's what van did. for better. and for so much worse.#which isn't true. isn't actually how love works. love is sometimes putting your foot down and saying 'nah dude that ain't it.'#love is communication. but that was never taivan's game and it isn't tai's now and so she's just trying old plays#and it is NOT a play that can ever work the same with simone in the leading role. nor should it.#but god everything about them makes me so sad because simone deserves better and taissa needs what she won't admit to#anyway. will be absolutely gnawing at the walls until S3.

This was NOT outro from Cacophony this song sounded so bitter and spiteful and resentful to me đ
#there's no way this was them making up#maybe its just me but reconciling did not come to mind when I first heard it#It feels more like relcutant surrender because he has no other choice#the other option is rotting in Apathy and fighting a losing battle in this cycle#sorry I have Thoughtsâą and my usual person to share them with is busy sometimes#cccc#doodles#art#chonny jash#cj Heart#The Whole World & You#sorry for the shitty quality#</3#now I have to draw Soil ough

âSometimes I think Surrender might have been better if the LI was MCs spouse: their marriage is drying up, the LI used to practice BDSM before they met MC, and then they teach MC (proper) BDSM. At the end of the book, we decide if we save the marriage or call it quits. The Billionaires Baby might have been better if MC developed a polyamorous relationship with Cole and Daphne, and focused on healing Daphne from her mothers abuse.â

God Has A Better Plan
When you give your heart to Jesus, one of the most obvious changes in your life is your attitude. That's because when you fall in love with Jesus, His love flows through you and affects everything that you do. Without God, life is dark and hopeless. But when you give your heart to Jesus and are fully surrendered to Him, your whole attitude changes. You won't be asking, Is life worthwhile? Or why am I even here? Because God will fill your mind with pure thoughts, and the Holy Spirit's strength will cause Satan and his evil angels to flee. So when your day doesn't go the way you planned or you are passed over for that promotion, the rent is due in your bank account is empty, or you didn't get the diagnosis you were hoping for. Instead of pouting or blaming God, remember, your life belongs to Jesus. Choose to have a Christian attitude and say, âGod has a better planâ. Text: Psalms 33:11, Psalms 138:8, Philippians 4:6-7, Jeremiah 29:11-13
Bible Texts:
Psalm 33:11 KJV -Â The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
Psalm 138:8 KJV -Â The LORD will perfect [that which] concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, [endureth] for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
Philippians 4:6-7 KJV -Â Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 KJV -Â For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find [me], when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
