[myricart]

When he makes you laugh during sex and then you feel his hands tighten on your hips and his jaw clenches, muttering a stiff “ease up,” while he tries to stop himself from cumming early because “if you keep squeezing my cock like that I’ll cum.”

early concepts for my penacony self insert! i couldn’t really place where i wanted to keep the traditional maid costume parts and where add the inspiration from the 20s party fashion to match the golden hour vibes :3 sadly, i don’t have the perfect reference for my final look to place next to them besides various angles from my selfship drawings </3

And what if I use those ship templates to perpetuate chaos?

Love Epiphany: when a character realizes they are in love with another character. This is not when the character confesses this love to that other character or anyone else, but when the character realizes it themselves. Often this can be when a character had feelings already and realized this has blossomed into love, or when a character has been in denial about these feelings until this moment.

SET IT UP (2018) dir. Claire Scanlon

When the unflappable character sees someone they care about in danger and the mask slips, it's great.

But when the unflappable character sees someone they care about in danger, and the mask DOESN'T slip.

Because they understand they need to be calm and unflappable now more than ever; if it protects them, it will certainly protect the person they care about. So their voice doesn't waver, their hands don't shake. They don't panic. From the outside looking in, they're as calm as could be. They handle it.

But after it's over-when the person they care about is safe, and the unflappable character is alone-they completely shatter. Gasping breaths, sobs, barely holding it together because someone they love almost DIED, and it was far, far too close for comfort.

(Optional: Character that they care about finds them in this state and comforts them.)

Bahaar and Jing yuan's dynamic is the confusing "are they dating or is he that annoying flea she wants to swat or or they married — "

[myricart]

THE ETYMOLOGY OF BAHAAR'S NAME AND HOW I CONNECTED THE DOTS TO JING YUAN ( read : anya is deluded ).

holding persian roots before it made it's way to hindi a la history ( i am staring at my textbooks so hard rn do NOT start on the delhi sultanate and the mughal era do NOT- ), bahaar means spring and denotes 'newer beginnings' in a lot of cases.

i always wanted to name her after a season ( varsha being another, with it meaning monsoon ) and settled on this one for plenty of reasons lol.

in connection to the abundance : with spring bringing in the implications of newer life post winter and the image of p l a n t s in general, the abundance holds it's ties with spring as a whole. it's wildness, after all, the beautiful and the terrifying.

given that we're still not sure where the wingweavers tie back to, i'm still playing around with turkic, persian and south asian roots for a sect of them at least.

it's a stretch but look, even if hoyo makes their canon something wholly unrelated, my delusional ass WILL find a way.

in connection to jing yuan : BECAUSE OFC THERE IS. his name literally means unchanging scenery and her's means springtime. what is spring but a constant flux of change and utter chaos???

it's slight, yes but bahaar has made her mark to utterly overturning some parts of his life ( and jing yuan being jing yuan, delights in that XD ) and completely stepping over some of his stagnancy and boredom. oh, he wants a change of pace? she's the quiet gremlinry ( which means she gets teased...to her horror ).

in connection to herself : because yes, i am evil and i make my characters suffer. bahaar has been through plenty ( between incarceration, reformation and losing her wings ).

there were some beliefs that were stripped away, then some more and some more as were parts of her naivete and her innocence. change is something bahaar both welcomes and loathes. she's tough and she'll keep living through it. springtime always returns after all.

❝ . . . and then she came, the shifting season to his stagnant scenery. his soil was upturned, his flowers wilted then bloomed and the earth itself, seemed to give way to more while the old were put to rest. BAHAAR, for it was springtime, the same springtime in her name. ❞
