The Sea Creature of the Day is the Firefly Squid!
im gonna be honest, among sea creatures ive hyperfixated on, squids are not one of them. so, while i cant give much of a fun fact here... can we just appreciate how beautiful bioluminescence is? if i ever got the chance to see these guys spawning season i would literally cry

Your wish is my command, my friend!
So, this is in reference to my a follow up post about my Belobog Roleswap AU. Initially, I wanted to swap only the Belobog cast cause those are the characters I'm the most familiar with. This post is not canon to the AU, this is a small "what if" and how it would happen realistically. This Roleswap follows the rules of the original, so no personality changes and no backstory changes (expect necessary ones for the sake of a cohesive narrative). The only one who is not getting roleswapped is the Trailblazer since the plot kind of relies on them being with the express.
So here are the roleswaps!
Himeko <--> Kafka
Welt <--> Silver Wolf
Dan Heng <--> Yingxing (Blade)
March 7th <--> Firefly
The way I see it, the only way for this Roleswap to happen realistically is for the Astral Express to be abandoned in Kafka's planet instead of Himeko's. So Kafka fixed it up and set sail, looking for something that will make her feel fear or, in general, intense emotions.
On her way, she meets Yingxing. She helps him with his mara and offers him a place in the express and he accepts. He goes through a lot of self reflection, going through the "I want to kill Dan Feng and all his reincarnations" to a more chill "I want closure so let me sail the Express and maybe I'll see him. And, maybe, I'll find a way to finally die". He's not sure how he's going to react to seeing Dan Feng, but he does know he wants to see him at some point.
As the two continue travelling, they see Firefly floating in space. They decide to save her and invite her to board the express. Having nothing else, she agrees. Now, she travels in hopes of finding a cure to her illness and to live her life as Firefly, not as SAM, another weapon of war.
They met Silverwolf when they visited Punklord. She decides to board the Express just to because, she doesn't have a clear goal in mind. She just wishes to explore the universe for videogames and entertainment reasons.
Since Himeko never got the chance to board the Express, she ended up meeting Elio first. Due to that, she becomes a Stellaron Hunter. I'm not sure what her ideal future is, so the most crackhead idea I can come up with is her wanting to become the "next Akivili" so that she can explore the universe without any issue. (I legit have no idea what her wish for her future could be. Navigator of the Express feels like the perfect role for her. Himeko fans, I'll leave this up to you).
The first recruit after Himeko is Welt. He joins with the hopes that Ellio can bring him back home. His ideal future is one where no one will ever struggle with finding their way back home.
Later, Dan Heng comes along. He joins the Stellaron Hunters because he lacked other options. The "perfect future" for him is one where Vidyadhara don't reincarnate but reproduce normally and the memory of Dan Feng is gone, so that he is seen as his own person.
They find March 7th floating around in her giant ice cube. They rescue her and offer a place in the Stellaron Hunters. She, like Dan Heng, accepts cause of the lack of other options. Her ideal future is one where not only she remembers everything, but where nobody would ever suffer from loss of memories.
The game starts the same way with the Trailblazer and the Stellaron being inserted into their body.

been trying to figure out what exactly it is about aventurine that feels perhaps relatable, or what it is that makes me want to study him like a bug...
and camr to the thought that he's pretty pessimistic for am optimist...but also ob the other side of the same coin, he's optimiaric for a pessimist. kinda both at the same time,.or depending on the day or how you look at him maybe.
he's an optimist becuase he knows he's going to win. he always wins. he has always won his gambles. he knows it will happen again and again. his luck, or gift, or blessing, or whatever you want to call it ensures that. but he's also a pessimist becuase he knows that "win" also always comes with some kind of suffering for him. he wins all his gambles, but at what cost? a lot, actually. so is it really a win? he knows he will win, but he also knows he will be used, abused, sacrificed, broken, or in pain. he expects those to be a consequence of his winning luck, to the point of making sure it happens and becomes self-destructive because of it. he acts calmly like it's ok and is the outcome he wants and calls that a win because it's what he plans and expects. he bets on it and it happens.
but at the same time, he's slowly breaking and seems to want it to end. he tests the limits of his luck to see if it's a real "gift" or if it is all a coincidence and has an end. he probably wants to meet the end to end the pain and suffering, but knows his "luck" won't allow it. he wants to be against the luck and see if he can win. a whole contradiction it itself. his luck kept him alive so many times and continues to do so. it will always do so, unless perhaps his end is the goal. what if he bets on losing this time? bets in meeting his end? he needs to get lucky enough to achieve that goal. flip his lucky fate by turning his luck around, make his end the final lucky win.
but it seems like he either lost for once and didn't meet his end....maybe his luck truly does intend on keeping him alive...or he changed his mind in the end and got lucky enough to get out of meeting his end once again...
he's still a bit of an enigma to me and i'm not sure exactly what happened. but he's for sure a complex and amusing character (even if I still want to put him into a snow globe and shake it as hard as I can) and this whole penacony story is too complex for my soggy trashcan brain lmao but i'm enjoying the ride

how was playing hsr? was there anything that you liked in the game and the story?
ITS BEEN AMAZING AS EXPECTED!!!!!!!!! i actually havent played genshin in a while since starting it, i have no motivation to do the filler event while a perfectly good star rail is sitting there waiting to be played :')
but for mechanics, i love they have auto battle so you dont have to nessecarily sit there and invest in every little battle you gotta do....and i love that the resin (resin??) system is a lot more forgiving with a higher cap, lower cost, and allow for overflow...thats nice...i also love that the mc and starter units are very useful. im so emotionally attatched to the star rail crew so im glad they never have to leave my team !!!!
storywise im LOVING IT SO FAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i started playing it at the beginning of spring break 2 weeks ago and im almost all caught up!!! i went through belabog and penacony and now im just doing those leftover intermission main quests which im only now realizing i shouldve done before going to penacony LMAO
and of course.....danmarch....im so soft for them......and also i love sampo i cant wait to see what they do with him

Kira: Our gods live in the wormhole and watch over us from a realm beyond physical form.
Crichton: Oh, you mean the Ancients? I wouldn't exactly call them gods, but they do know an awful lot about wormholes...
Daniel: I see where we're getting confused. The Ancients are powerful beings of pure consciousness who built wormholes, but they don't portray themselves as gods. That's an evil breakaway group called the Ori.
Book: Well, there's only one God I believe in, and I imagine he made the wormholes same as he made everything else.
Kira: ...who brought this guy to the Wormhole Alien conference?
