new msg from Erika:

'Hey, is this too fancy?'

Paraphrasing myself from a youtube comment on an analysis of Signalis:

if Lilith was erased from records and public memory, that would definitely contribute to why her relation to Anja and the twins is unclear. Anja could've been her sister or cousin, but when I tried to prove/disprove whether it was possible that the Itou twins weren't too old to be Lilith's own children, part of the challenge is translating the calendar format to Vinetan days and years.

If I did it right, I was able to calculate that a "cycle" is ~22.61 hours (the fraction I got was 240000/10613), and a 365-day year contains ~8766 hours, which would round up to 388 cycles… however, regarding how long it's been since Lilith's dispatch when Ariane was a radio officer, a span estimated at ten years was extrapolated from Ariane Yeong and Rebecca Liang's medical files, which actually just state how far apart they are in age relative to the Rotfront calendar. In the Rotfront calendar system, S doesn't seem to align with its local solar rotation. Maintaining the assumption that Rotfront is Europa, a Jovian year is 4,333 Earth days, or almost 12 years. If S were a Jovian year, Ariane would be 47 years older than the Itou twins, so that can't be it.

In the patient records, dates range as follows: S = -6 to 18, P= 6 to 76 and a-d. Notably, Roswita Fong*, the one with the same brow marks seen on KLBR units, was born a negative number, which may suggest she was born 6S before the installation of the Rotfront calendar. (This would support the assumption that S is counting from the founding of the Nation.)

Now, if S is the year, that makes Ariane older than Nikolai Nguyen by 3S and younger than Rebecca Liang by 10S. But as for those last letters in Rotfront dates, a-d may correspond with quartering Rotfront's orbit around Jupiter (~84 hours) into four 21-hour spans. The only catch is, while the patient files only list a-d, ADLR-S2301 dates his journal entries as days 6-9 preceding A-C, until finally dating all entries 84-21-D. This may or may not set the events on Sierpinski when Ariane would be 66S, but if a cycle is estimated to be 22 hours and 36-37 minutes, that's pretty close to 21 hours. (It is also possible that a cycle is 21 hours.) Those entries were written leading up to and during the distortion, so Adler may have been getting mixed up between Leng's and Rotfront's dating formats at that point.

So back to Ariane. If she and the twins were close enough in age at 4S apart to have been schoolmates, S still has a chance of being a conversion of a Vinetan (Earth) year from 365 days to 388 cycles. Anja Itou said to look at the last six digits on her daughters' PKZ and recall their homeworld (Vineta) when mentioning that the passcode to the library was their birthday.

If Isa and Erika were born May 24, '56, and that date = 14S 52P c, -6S 20P a = Feb. 2, '35 and 8S 12P b = Jan. 6, '50. And if -6S = year '35 and and 8S = year '50, then 15 Vinetan years = 14S. That may disprove S = 388 cycles, but cross-examining that with Rotfront = Europa is probably the key to finishing the translation of a Rotfront calendar. This is as far as I could get by myself (ft. wolframalpha).

*Regarding the theory that Roswita was a neural donor: it all depends on the extent of that level being a recreation of the past built from Ariane's memories and whether the Kolibri line was already in production. That medical record may have been destroyed by 84-21 (Leng calendar? Rotfront calendar?), but with her being a "retired" Replika technician, that snapshot of Rotfront may have been based on the timeframe between Roswita's "neural archival" and the manufacturing of KLBR, such as if her candidacy were under final assessment at the time.

The red starbursts (tattoos?) are probably how the Eusan Nation marks known bioresonants. They're featured on the cover of Bioresonance Technology and its Limitations, and Falke has them too. The shape and placement are almost identical, just slightly elongated and partially covered by her hair. Kolibris' hairstyle may leave their starbursts so exposed as a reminder not to underestimate them just because they're short, but Falke already has halos and kotinos, and she towers over everyone. She's already decked out in reminders for everyone to know their place around her.

So~

How's Erika-chan's waistline doing?

After a very sudden date at a buffet, a psycho’s attempt to tube feed her while they were recording a music video, a few gifts from fans, and one of their first brand collabs, Erika has gained almost ten pounds in the last month, leaving her just past the 120 lbs mark.~

"You know what people never consider about being the leader of a grass-type gym, and being in the gym most of the day?"

"All the pollen in the air. Believe me, people wouldn't think I'm so elegant if they saw how much I end up sneezing..."

[anime-bxuty]

(For the Kanto and Johto Gym Leader girls) It was the annual meeting of the Indigo Pokemon League. Gym Leaders from across the Kanto and Johto regions have gathered to discuss changes to the league, new Leader and Elite Four members, and what to do in the event major threats like Team Rocket resurfaced again. It was all well and good, except for one thing... the meeting is so unbelievably BORING, new Kanto Leader Rock fell asleep halfway through!

Erika was watching as the meeting continued over and over. Glancing at the clock and some of her fellow gym leaders. Janine looked like she had been playing attention; only for her eyes to give away she wasn't. Erika's bet was it was something ninja related. Misty was looking at swimsuits, Sabrina was looking at movie deals. The newcomer Rock was asleep.

Erika made one final sip of her tea, before setting the cup down. Standing up. "I'm sorry but there is something I must said. We have been trailing on the same topic over and over with how to handle something like Team Rocket. We keep saying we need to be more active. We been saying the same thing for hours. The meeting was suppose to end hours ago. We should probably end the meeting. We have plenty of work to do. I have gym trainers lined up to challenge, and thus again I like to call for the meeting to end,"

Gonna say something potentially controversial:

I think Heartcatch suffers from the Up phenomenon in that people remember it as an excellent, if not flawless masterpiece when it actually has One (1) excellent, if not flawless moment in the beginning and is otherwise nothing special.

[Crossposts from Amino] Poem Challenge Entries

Original Post Date: 9/7/17

I read somewhere in the comments that you were accepting multiple entries per person, so, here we go...

The first one is an echo poem inspired by "Echo Sonnet to an Empty Page" and based off of Princess and the Pauper, except mine probably isn't quite a sonnet because rhyme schemes and my lines are probably not exactly in iambic pentameter but whatever, this is an amino challenge, not school (I'm sorry).

The left side, the "voice," represents Anneliese, and the right side, the "echo" is Erika. The echo starts off just repeating the end of the phrase like a real echo, since their desires are similar (freedom from something), but moves apart as their stories change. They come back together as the two meet and save the day.

The second one is a weird parallel poem thing based on Barbie and the Diamond Castle, cause I freaking love that movie.

The two poems can either be read separately, Liana/Alexa's on the left, the Muses' on the right, or they can be read together as one echo-y poem. They're also connected into the shape of a heart, like Melody's mirror, to represent her as a link between the two stories.

For the #PoemChallenge

ROUND 1, POLL 4

Who's your favourite Cure starting with M?

[mobianresistance]

//Muse list update:

Changed everybody's portrait again cause I didn't really like the ones I changed them to.

Added Mina Mongoose from the Archie comics and Surge the Tenrec from the IDW comics.

Voice Claim for Mina: Erica Lindbeck (e.g. Futaba Sakura from Persona 5, Emira Blight from The Owl House)

Voice Claim for Surge: Erica Mendez (e.g. Ryuko Matoi from Kill la Kill)

yes, my thought process for picking Surge's voice claim was "I need an actress who can sound sufficiently unhinged" and my mind just immediately went to Ryuko

[feathersinning]

Slides the dash an Erika. Love the cosplayer maybe?

"...Don't you at least wanna share with your friends?"

Is that why you fall asleep all the time, Erika? The spores in the air?

"..."

"It just might be! I never thought of that before."
