thinking about being so brave and posting this au I've been working on so long (since october i fear), and I'm thinking about my oc saylor winslow and colby brock, the unstoppable duo ofc, untouchable popular cheerleader it girl and alt anti-conformity film kid colby brock, partners in crime, working across enemy lines, hating each other for what side they stand on with all of this, the cool kids vs. everybody, forever....right? but what if colby just found his way in to cracking the ultimate code of the cool kids curse, and saylor is the one phoning numbers across the way... a budding frenemy bond all consuming, imperfected, hated, never ever done before but also oh so classic, this is so above them (totally) but yet...why does he keep asking her for help...and why does she keep helping him? they're so linger by the cranberries & crush (stripped) by ethel cain 😭

navia + how the spina di rosula operates

okay so this is a meta i wanted to write fairly early on and will become a cornerstone of my portrayal of Navia since she is the Spina and so many of her interactions will revolve around it. i mentioned before that the Spina is, in my opinion, a watered down version of the mafia/mob who, at least in the way that it is presented and led by Navia, wishes to do good ( for the most part ) and acts for the benefit of the ordinary citizens of Fontaine. unlike the mafia, it's an organisation that isn't explicitly criminalised or hunted down by the Maison Gardiennage as far as we know, but the Spina very much operates in the underworld of Fontainian society ( quite literally — the Fleuve Cendre is located beneath the Court of Fontaine, the symbol of Fontaine's opulence and splendor and seemingly huge wealth divide ).

there's also the name — whereas the majority ( though not all ) of the landmarks and areas in Fontaine take inspiration from the French language, Spina di Rosula doesn't look obviously French? it feels Italian ( though while spina translates to thorn in Italian, rosula doesn't mean rose in Italian. nor does it mean rose in French either lmao ), but google translate tells me it's Corsican, which is even more interesting since there was such a thing as the Corsican Mafia, who historically operated both within the French underworld and the Italian Mafia. Corsica also has its own regional language in addition to them being French speakers, which is interesting to me too — obviously hoyo has taken wider inspiration from Western Europe when it comes to Fontaine and therefore different countries are sprinkled in here and there with no obvious connection, but for the Spina quite literally by its etymology to exist in a space between French and Italian is definitely significant.

Navia claims that the Spina is funded by donations and I don't doubt this girl's word, but a common practice of Mafia groups were so-called "protection rackets", essentially guaranteeing businesses and people protection outside of the law in exchange for money. considering that the Spina controls the Fleuve Cendre and have their organisation logo visible and large above their "base of operations" ( the tavern area you meet Navia in during the AQ and see her in at the start of her demo — in her demo you literally see the Spina's symbol before anything else ) in order to signify the fact, I can absolutely see this as a method that the Spina uses. "voluntary" donations to ensure that businesses and individuals are protected from rival factions, since it's sort of hinted at in the AQ that control of the Fleuve Cendre was hard won by Callas, Navia's father, and we know that he had to partner with Marcel and the Confrerie of Cabriere in order to control Poisson. Marcel's organisation is called a "sister organisation" of the Spina, though I am sure there was a time early on in Callas's reign where they were bitter rivals — plus the Mafia does tend to adopt a familial model when it comes to ranks and alliances, so calling it sister is kinda appropriate. you also see in the latest event that a) despite growing up in the Fleuve Cendre, Chevreuse isn't necessarily welcome there considering that she is a part of the Maison Gardiennage, and b) that there are all kinds of unspoken rules she needs to follow in order to navigate the area.

I do think the Spina was much more ruthless and domineering under Callas. it's described in Navia's story quest as the Spina's golden age, and before you find out about Colter's animosity towards Navia, he makes a remark about the "eye for an eye" culture of Callas's Spina di Rosula. we also find out that Callas was "stiff as a board" according to Navia and used to be better at taking counsel from others until Clementine's death, when presumably his stance and willingness to listen to his subordinates hardened quite a bit. but Callas did also partner with both the Court of Fontaine and the Fontaine Research Institute on the Aquabus lines — something which caused a split within the Spina itself, and it's explained that he did this to forge alliances. I think it could also be true that Callas did this in order to gain tacit permission by these institutions, particularly the Palais de Mermonia, to operate without interference from law enforcement ( or at least for them to look the other way concerning some of the Spina's practices ). considering the fail safes that he put in place in order to protect Navia when he was wrongly accused of murder, I think Callas was an incredibly shrewd and ruthless businessman and knew that he needed connections in both the high and the low of Fontainian society.

it's possible he was also able to successfully hide the more shady sides of the Spina's business too: we know that the Maison Gardiennage basically has no jurisdiction over the Fleuve Cendre and leaves it alone for the most part ( which says something about the wealth disparity in Fontaine as a whole imo ). considering that the Spina does do a great deal of good for the ordinary Fontainian and is presumably well-liked by the general populace ( if not so much by the Palais Mermonia ), it would likely be more damaging for the Maison Gardiennage, for example, to attempt to dismantle it and face resistance from the common people than it is to just leave it alone.

considering that Callas's name and reputation were disgraced by being falsely accused, that could also explain why the Spina is struggling more under Navia — perhaps before Callas's murder charge, the powers in Fontaine were more willing to look the other way, whereas once his name was disgraced, it became easier to weaken or suppress the organisation's power and reach.

as far as what this actually means in terms of interacting with Navia and the Spina — unlike in Act 1 of the Fontaine AQ, where Navia literally rocks up outside the Opera Epiclese courtroom with Melus and Silver to offer Paimon and the Traveler help, professionally speaking it would actually be pretty tricky to get an audience with Navia herself since she is at the head of the Spina. personally would be a very different story since we know that Navia is something of a socialite and a celebrity and does have many well-connected friends in Fontaine, but in terms of business, Navia is heavily protected ( despite the number of attempts on her life let's not talk about that ) and it would not be easy to get to her if you're not already known to her or to the Spina.

My Star

another poem based on leo

You lift me up to the skies to return me to the stars.

You would tell me afterwards, “I want to take you home.”

Because to you I am the burning star that shines for you.

“I am no star, for I would never belong to the sky.”

What a loud laugh you’d have as i would respond.

I couldn’t help but smile as you capered around me.

You’d point at a constellation, and whisper how lovely i’d be up there.

You’d tell me how the starry night is incomplete without me.

To you I burn brighter than any sun, despite my rainy mood.

How I long to murmur those words back to you.

Stuck in my throat, I can barely express how much I adore.

Yet with a single look you seem to understand and hold me in your grasp once more.

no, ‘sun-rider’ is now an epithet name that nomi earned from being the last ship out of the way of the detonating cron cluster. her husband’s name is ‘andur’? :D :D :D guess what happens if you just straight-up katakana-style transpose ‘anðro’. you get ‘a-n-du-r[o]’. i'm dione-ing him, i'm despoina-ing him. dione from di-wi-ja (feminization of di-we, zeus), lady zeus no name of her own. despoina, ‘the mistress'. he’s just ‘man’ now. his job here is to die, he is an everyman stuffed in the fridge.

you put a city on ossus named knossa. u called them 'the qel-droma epics'. guess what. i'm epic-ing them.

nomi hāwélioyanágʷəňōtāts. nomi sun-mounted. nomi, tou heliou anabantis (very roughly).

i mean, i don't think whoever went 'yeah in the xim-era ossus was called idux' realized just how well that works with the sound changes from pre-greek to greek, but it does:

begin with: idux > consonant variation of voiced/less stops: d/t >

itux > common interchange of x/kx & t/tx with s/ss >

issus > the incredible amount of vowel interchange incl. ο/ι & ο/ω >

you've arrived at ossus! hurray for pre-greek sound changes!

(it's like the many variations of odŭsseús (gr)/ulixēs (lat)/uθuze (etr), with the root originally being something similar to oðukyeu, because ð is the most likely value for the d-series of linear a and b, in that it will result in d/l alteration: dapʰúrintʰos [da-pu2-ri-to] > lăbúrĭnthos)
