Here’s my submission for @pulpmusicalsfortnight2024 Day 13 (ignore that that was technically yesterday): Light/Dark

CHARACTERS I TEND TO PORTRAY AS WOMEN

A short little list of character that, generally, when I’m speaking about them, I’m speaking about a female alternative and a short explanation on why. Excluding nations that are not canon in hetalia (e.g. the Faroe Islands).

NYO REPLACEMENTS:

“Nyo replacements” refer to nations where I still acknowledge the existence of the male counterpart, I might include them in ships or different AUs, but generally speaking, I prefer to treat their nyo as the “main” portrayal.

NYO ICELAND:

“Hrafnhildur Ingólfsdóttir”

Whilst I have never actually taken any issue with regular Iceland, I, at some point, just started gravitating more towards Hrafnhildur, instead. I actively developed her more than I did regular Ice, and became more comfortable with her. Iceland is also one of the best countries for women in the modern world, it was one of the first in Europe to elect a female head of state, for example. Other reasons, but my explanation is getting long as is.

NYO ESTONIA:

“Ivika Tamm”

Mainly thanks to Finland, who can be seen in OC replacement, I personally just love the idea of Finland and Estonia as a sister duo more than a brother-sister duo. Also, Estonia was actually a pretty good fighter back in the day.. and kind of unhinged… and I just love female “warrior” Eesti. And, similar to Iceland, I just developed a nyo Estonia before I did hws Estonia.

NYO ITALY:

“Angelica Viola Rossi”

Again, another one where I just developed the nyo counterpart more than the male one, women are just easier for me. If I were to list countries that just give me a more “feminine” vibe, Italy would be one of the first ones to name. And I’ve just always loved and gravitated towards nyo Italy, so I use her far more often. Feliciano is cute, but he just never stood out to me in the way Angelica does.

NYO POLAND:

“Felicja Skłodowska”

I debated whether or not to add Poland to this list, but ultimately decided I should. Whilst I do love the “Poland is the land of fem-boys” meme and I appreciate how it fits Feliks perfectly, regular Poland has never stood out to me at all, really, where as Felicja is more fun. I prefer Poland’s female design, and would’ve preferred to see them as a woman, like originally intended.

NYO PHILIPPINES:

Currently unnamed

Like many people, before Philippines was released, I was in the camp that they should’ve been a girl. Whilst I am not knowledgeable on Filipino culture, from what I’ve heard, it would make most cultural sense for the Philippines to have been a woman. I’ve seen multiple female Philippines OCs that I have loved, and whilst I do not have my own portrayal, I feel as though a female Philippines just has more potential. But I have no problem with canon Piri, he’s pretty fun.

OC REPLACEMENTS:

“OC replacements” refer to characters where I refuse to admit could even be nyos. The male counterpart does not exist to me at all, they are dead, deceased, I personally killed them.

FINLAND:

“Aino Lemmikki Järvinen”

Mainly thanks to “Suomi Neito” or the Finnish maiden, in English. A female personification of Finland within Finnish culture, originally stemming from the idea that the land looks like a woman. Even besides, I personally find making Finland a girl to be a good visual way to show the difference between them and the other Nordics. This was before I replaced Iceland with nyo Iceland, keep in mind. I’ve spoken about this before, multiple times, so I won’t say much here. The only time I use male Finland is when I’m using a friend’s portrayal.

IRELAND:

“Saoirse O’Reilly/Ní Raghallaigh”

I cannot express the disappointment I felt when Ireland was released as a man, I was one of the many people who was really rooting for a female Ireland. I tried to make my peace with male Ireland, but I just could not. Ireland will forever be a woman in my mind. There are so many strong women who come from Ireland, and Ireland just in general has strong feminine vibes imo.

NORTHERN IRELAND:

“Niamh O’Reilly/Ní Raghallaigh”

Again, similar to Ireland, I personally headcanoned N. Ireland as a woman before actual Northern Ireland became canon, and whilst my disappointment wasn’t as strong, I just could not sit with a male n. Ireland. I did consider her a nyo for a while, but eventually I just gave up with that.

SOUTH KOREA:

“Im Soojin”

Mainly thanks to @itstokkii and their wonderful portrayal of Korea 💕 South Korea just has such strong feminine vibes to me, and I just cannot picture them as anything other than a woman. South Korea, as a character, I just did not care about at all until I started viewing them as a girl, I love my hyper-modern tech whizz girly ig, what can I say?

NEW ZEALAND/AOTEAROA:

“Maia Ngaio” as I’m unfamiliar with Māori names, as notes or suggestions are very much welcome.

When it comes to New Zealand, I just think of so many strong, amazing female activists and fighters. New Zealand was actually the first country to give women the right to vote, and is also just so great for women’s rights. Which has to account for something, right? I just love female Aotearoa so much, I always have done, and a male portrayal just has absolutely no appeal to me at all anymore.

What are three shows in your watchlist that you’ve been meaning to get to?

Dungeon Meshi. I've watched the first three episodes and I'm liking it so far :3

Castlevania: Nocturne

Severance. I've seen snippets of it and it looks interesting

Do you collect anything? If so, what?

Candlessss. I love them collecting them and I've even made a few myself. It's a very fun and unique hobby of mine that I don't share with a lot of people lmao my dad has a whole gnome collection but we don't talk about that

What’s one historical event that you would have liked to have witnessed?

🔪 March 15 ���

But seriously, also just ancient times in general. Whether it's Greece, Egypt, Rome, etc.

What kind of math are you best at?

Precal. I'm good at algebra and trig individually, but when there are little bits of both sprinkled in...that's when I know what I'm doing (somehow I have the unit circle completely memorized...but not the quadratic formula...idk what's wrong with me and yes that's why it's my blog title so I can actually work on memorizing it)

Do you have any piercings or tattoos? Are there any that you want?

I have both of my ears pierced, but that's it. As for tattoos...I'd love to get a one of a butterfly that I (kind of) share a name with

[inumbrapugnabimus-maybe]

please tell me wtf ur username is on this blog. /lh 😭😭😭😭

Oh goodness! Yeah my username is pretty weird isn’t it XD

wellllll it’s a bit of a long story…

prepare for much nerding out about Greek history and also my very boring and irrelevant backstory under the cut :)

Oookay! so I’m homeschooled, but I had a co-op with other homeschoolers once a week in elementary and middle school. And my history and Latin teacher in said co-op was a HUGE FAN of Ancient History!

This being so, I took multiple years of Ancient Greek and Roman (and miscellaneous other ancient cultures) history and literature. And in my Latin class, history henceforth played a big role as well! One of my teacher’s favorite phrases, which she would repeat constantly with gusto, was “In umbra igitur pugnabimus.”

this translates to “Then we will fight in the shade.” The story behind this is one of my favorites in history. This was allegedly said by King Leonidas of Sparta at the Battle of Thermopylae. I’m not going to go into everything about the battle here but it is incredibly cool and always makes me tear up.

when Leonidas and his 300 Spartans we’re about to go up against around 150000 Persians in a fight that was ultimately to the death, the Persians offered him a chance to surrender. They warned him that the arrows of the Persian archers would block out the sun.

Leonidas responded by saying “Then we will fight in the shade.”

So, when I made this blog, I decided I wanted to do something Latin. Then I remembered this quote! And with a memorable story and the pronunciation of the phrase ingrained into my brain, what wasn’t to like? And, being the rather unusual person that I am, I decided to add “maybe” to the end of it, and take off the “igitur,” the Latin for “then.”

and now I have a really weird username! Woohoo!

[cb-writes-stuff]

Um. Hm.

I feel weird. I don’t know who’s fronting. It still feels like me. But like, I also feel me in my head. And the backseaters are talking to a different me back there that is apparently the usual me? I’m worried.

Oh, no. It’s gone. Things are back to normal. I must have come back. This is so weird.
