#Arknights Ifrit

A detail that I really like with this specific Ifrit outfit:

The fuel canisters:

They are two small ones. Compare to her original outfit:

These canisters are HUGE in comparison.

Firstly, her new outfit of course looks more casual, walking around with huge fuel canisters for her flamethrower would be weird.... but I think there is a bigger reason, since logically she would only bring the canisters when already bringing her flamethrower.... she does not need the big canisters anymore, why? Because she is actually using her head and trying to hold back to not cause any unnecessary destruction. We also see her just hitting people with her weapon or bare hands in Lone trail when more convenient. She is a lot more skilled of a fighter by now and therefore does not need to spam flames everywhere anymore, so she opts for lighter equipment for more convenient carrying.

Which also fits with how she has mellowed out and learned to better deal with her issues, and grown to be a more responsible person (I highly recommend reading her oprecs btw).

I was re-reading the Rhine labs manga and really liked the parallels between Silence and Saria/Rhine and Silence and The Doctor/Kal'tsit/Rhodes.

the minds of a lab at three different points (LONG rambling under the cut)

I am constantly in awe of the analyses people put out about Arknights on this website. I feel like my own interpretations are somewhat lacking as a result, but I was confident enough to post this, at least. I've had this idea for a long time now, I think since Lone Trail released, but I've only been able to make the time for it now.

Rhine Lab has so many fucked up elements and people involved in it that it's actually impressive. They were really gunning for "most unethical scientific consortium" reward. Really, though, it's just the result of Kristen gunning for her parents' wishes. All of the directors want something and all of those somethings are different.

Things I want to mention or just feel proud of (allowing myself this because of how long this took):

-I was originally planning on crossing out Saria's surname to reflect that we still don't know what it is in canon, but I don't know why whoever has this poster would do that, so I just kept it in. Hermon refers to Mount Hermon, which Saria's name apparently derives from. Technically, her name here is the same thing twice. Oh well.

-I don't know who this poster belongs to. It's just in some Rhine Lab tech's personal desk, I guess? Doesn't explain the doodles, though. Maybe they were bored and feeling spiteful about the potential job insecurity of your boss being comatose in space.

-I realized only while making this post that I made Saria's, Muelsyse's, and Jara's doodles reference Kristen, yet Kristen's only references herself and her parents. Completely unintentional, but appropriate nonetheless.

-I am so happy with how the poster came out. It makes up for how hard I had to fight Canva for it to come out like that. Here it is in full if you want to look at it closely for whatever reason. (writing an actual description for this thing was fun!)

-Andenate doesn't actually have a face under the sticky note. That's why he's still Mike Wazowski'd in the poster png. I didn't feel like drawing one since it wouldn't be shown in the finished pieces anyway. His jacket is just the same as Magallan's.

-Ifrit's picture board was a literal last-minute addition. It's why the images are sketches rather than being in the lineless style of the poster. It feels fitting, though, so I'm keeping it that way. Seeing Ifrit all grown up and doing so well in Lone Trail was wonderful. There's something in her being happy and healthy and also surrounded by not just her loved ones and friends from Rhine Lab, but also people outside of it. She's cultivated her life to be as fulfilling as she wants it to be, and while there is still room to grow, she has plenty of support and insight from others for it to do so. I may be misrepresenting her a bit (the sleepiness doesn't help), but man. I love Ifrit. She's so cool.

wuh oh

Hmmmm Ifrit and Eyja's wedding rings having little shaped pieces of obsidian instead of diamonds, both cut from a single piece of obsidian that they found on one of their early anniversaries that they spent on a volcano research expedition (Adele felt guilty about working on their anniversary but Ifrit hadn't actually been to an active volcano before and had a great time)

Before Adele proposes she's anxious about whether Ifrit will like it or not but Ifrit thinks it's sicknasty and is really touched by it

I like how their playstyles match their personalities. Ifrit plays childishly, going for simple line block drops like beginners do, but still manages to keep up, probably due to how fast she builds. Sesa is clearly more experienced, going for a somewhat advanced T-Spin setup. Kirara has gone for a similar strategy, but it appears she wasn't able to keep up with the other two and has some junk she has to race to clear. Perhaps she couldn't match their chuuni energy, or maybe she only knows the strat from game guides and doesn't have much experience putting it in practice.

And then Mizuki beats them all anyway.
