Local Floriography Bitch Emerges from Hibernation Because Cute Spy Found Family Romcom Has Cheeky Flower Shot!
Tumblr media
Alright, let's get the Basic Bitch of Floriography addressed first, which means looking at Bond and his Yellow Rose
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Roses are the flower that even people who know next to nothing about Floriography usually know on sight, but it's still cute that they gave the flower representing Friendship to Man's Best Friend.
Moving Counterclockwise through the picture, our next subject is Yor, sporting a fetching Orchid on her hairband.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Orchids symbolize Beautiful Woman, Refinement, Grace, and Uniqueness, and while it's 100% accurate for Yor, a part of me started to strongly suspect here that Loid is responsible for everyone's blooms, and used to opportunity to give discreet messages to his family without them knowing what he's telling them. (sneaky sneaky~)
Speaking of Loid, the man himself is up next, standing slyly with a Blue Aster.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Asters are also known as Starflowers, a sneaky nod to Loid's codename Twilight. And like roses, asters have different meanings depending on the colors you choose. Blue asters just so happen to symbolize Trustworthiness and Faithfulness. The perfect flower to represent a hardworking family man devoted to his wife and daughter! And certainly not the sort of thing one would associate with an undercover spy!
And finally, there is the last Forger Family Flower, and a brutal suckered punch to my soul;
Anya, and her Cosmos.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just like with Loid's Aster, Cosmos are also flowers associated with the stars, and have even been called "Mexican Asters." Which doesn't feel like an accident when Anya here is mimicking Loid's pose and holding the flower to her lips. And Cosmos have a very, VERY special meaning.
"Hold My Hand and Walk With Me"

One thing I love about Naruto is the use of ikebana, the art of Japanese flower arranging.
Tumblr media
In the manga, Sakura gets Sasuke (and Lee) a singular daffodil while he spends time in the hospital recovering. She claims that in contrast to Ino’s declaration of love she feels Sasuke much better suits the daffodil. A resilient flower that flourishes all year despite the difficulties it faces.
Daffodils have many different meanings. Regard, chivalry, self love, a promise of a new beginning… when I think these varying symbolic associations I can’t help but agree with Sakura.
Tumblr media
I’ve seen many fans declare that Sasuke’s eyes look like cherry blossoms, the sakura flower, but I disagree. His eyes are ones of daffodils. Sasuke learning the truth of the massacre, continuing to fight even after all of the troubles he’s faced throughout his life are proof of his persistence and strength. The way he was able to find himself again even after losing himself to revenge… He is just as Sakura said, a resilient man. He is one that I believe brings declarations of a new beginning with his hopes a making Konoha a place worthy of his brother’s sacrifice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just look in comparison of the two flowers to Sasuke’s mangekyou sharingan. His carry the same six petals and inner cup seen in daffodils rather than the five of cherry blossoms.
Tumblr media
Tombirama himself proclaims that despite the clan seen as one fuelled by hatred they are really one driven by love. Love so powerful it consumes. Their sharingan being a representation of their heart. The way I see it, Sasuke’s eyes reflect his inner desire for change. They show not just his resilience, but also a promise that he will make a difference.
I suppose you could relate it back to Sakura as well… “patiently waiting for spring without bowing to the cold.” Sakura’s full name quite literally means “springfield of cherry blossoms.” After years of Sasuke living in cold, in hatred, once he was able to rise above his past grievances Sasuke was able to let Sakura, his spring, in. Perhaps you could say he was patiently waiting for love. Something the Uchiha clan holds deep.

Cool stuff to learn when you are bored that is actually really interesting and might come in handy:
how to recognise the stars and constellations and the myths behind them (if you go stargazing)
the victorian language of flowers (to send secret messages to your friends)
morse code (same as above, plus it could save your life)
how to survive in the wild (speaks for itself)
biology/animal/human anatomy (its just. so interesting)
differerent types of seashells (again really interesting)
poisonous plants and their uses (DO NOT POISON ANYONE THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEAN. but you can recognise if one plant is poisonous and. you know. save smb)
learn about other cultures (food, clothes, myths etc. always be respectful tho <3)
read philosophy
read the illiad or the odyssey (the real ones. its so interesting)
honestly anything you are interested in is so cool learning about!

isat thoughts: the bright flower (flower symbolism makes me mentally ill)
Tumblr media
[woe, spoilers be upon ye!]
So, the bright flower visually resembles a pansy. Which feels innocuous until you realize. Pansies are symbols of remembrance. Because it sounds a lot like the French pansées, meaning thoughts. And in Old English, it was referred to as ‘heartease’ because it was thought that carrying one around would remind the person that they were loved, truly and wholeheartedly, by the one who gave it to them.
Now. I want you to let that sit for a sec.
Siffrin gives every party member a flower. It’s a gift, a way of showing that he cares about them. That he loves them. Isabeau says that he’ll treasure it forever.
Bonnie asks why, and then looks at it sadly.
Mirabelle says that she’ll press it in a book to keep it forever.
Odile says that it’s proof.
Siffrin doesn't know what it's proof of, but... of course, it's proof that he loves them. And more than that- that he won't forget them. Even if they forget him. Even if this all meant more to him than it did to them.
Then there's the people outside the party.
Euphrasie can't accept it. She is stuck, like Siffrin. She won't remember. Can't remember.
The King takes it. Instead of asking if Siffrin remembers like he usually does at the start of the battle, he asks if they will remember him. No matter what you say, the battle still happens. But if you say no, the King laughs, and says that he'll remember Siffrin after they're defeated.
The King knows, then, what it symbolizes. Even if Siffrin doesn't.
When you try to give the flower to Loop, they refuse it. They refuse it, again and again, turning it towards other members of the party, to those more deserving of it.
And when they finally take it...they act like nothing happened. But they took it. Quite literally accepted a reminder of love the only person who can care about them.
Do with that information what you will, but...
If you take the flower in Act 5, you can pluck it. If you keep it until after the King, siffrin will remark that it's still there.
If you look at it during act 6, however, you get this.
(You still have the flower.)
(...)
(You guess it's yours, now!)
It's yours now. You don't give it to any of the party members.
It's a reminder of love. Not for the party- they know, now, far better than they ever could have before. No, it's for Siffrin themself.
A way to remember that you are loved.
anyways insert disc 5 you are mad and i am in pain, your days are numbered /j

Page 2/3 of my BagginShield comic.
New headcanon: Hobbits take Floriography (flower language) very seriously. Dwarves have NO IDEA of it existence. Thorin just really picked up the tiniest and prettiest flowers he could find, because he thought Bilbo will like them.
And, yes, that’s a quote from Shrek in Thotin’s line🌚🌝 Why not?
I’m still trying new things with the style and colouring here, so I’ll be glad if you let me know what you think of it.

Hydrangeas are beautiful, elegant flowers, befitting the queen of the moon. But the flower’s symbolism, just like the fandom’s feelings towards Queen Serenity, aren’t always positive…
I find Queen Serenity to be an interesting character across the many medium that she has appeared in. Many people see her as a strong, wise, and loving mother who sealed away Nehelenia to protect her daughter, then years later sacrificed her life so that her child, her court, and Endymion could be reborn. Yet, she is also the one who forbid Pluto from ever leaving her post, and have the Inner Senshi take on the role of soldiers for her daughter when they’re still only children. As such, some fans adore her, while others dislike her for her perceived cold-heartedness.
The hydrangea shares a similar trait of having both positive and negative associations. In Japan (and more commonly in modern times) they symbolize apology, heartfelt emotions, wish for a deeper understanding, grace, rebirth, and love, depending on the flower’s color. But in Victorian times, due to the showy blossoms producing few seeds, hydrangeas were a symbol of frigidity, vanity, and singlehood. By all account Queen Serenity was a single mother, who only had a single child, thus making hydrangea a fitting flower for this beautiful but complex moon queen.

things i've noticed about HSR characters bc character design is my obsession
part two: 🎼Save a horse🎵 Ride a Cowboy🎶 ✨Boothill✨
who should i do next :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
his bullet earring and cartilage piercings [the bullet as a red chain link coming down from the hoop, kinda like when it first gets shot] -> also- if you zoom on his face too long he glares at you
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
it doesn't matter what direction you tilt his head, you cannot see his right eye clearly, this is the closest i got -> obviously this line was him joking about the cause of him being a cyborg, but i think he genuinely lost his right eye too. also- he's an optimist??
Tumblr media Tumblr media
he's got air vents on his neck!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Boothill's medals glow when you get victory stacks :D -> also they jingle every time you use his attack!! and look at his spurs!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
he's got a port on his left hand, to match the one on his back, but not his right. [are they connected? what does the one on his hand connect to?] -> i wonder if he can put bullets through the one on his hand and store them for later
Tumblr media Tumblr media
his original name meant loaded gun, so that's pretty cool -> and pretty dark considering he was literally turned into a living weapon ['as always, he and his partners turned to guerrilla warfare 😃' has the same energy as 'so anyway, then i cursed her 😊.']
Tumblr media Tumblr media
man's hips are OUT
anyway-
Tumblr media
his hair is interesting to me. is it natural? his sixth eidolon has the interesting mix of black and white that it does currently, even though that's him as a human
wouldn't be cool if it was Marie Antoinette Syndrome? -> it can be caused by extreme stress and trauma to the body//mind, which you can't deny Boothill went through -> but it can also be caused by Alopecia Areata, which is a rare autoimmune disease that causes your cells to attack each other and target the pigment and structure of hair follicles [altho alopecia usually results in hair loss]
could the loss of his body, paired with how he was found as a baby, cause the discoloration of his hair?
also the leaves in his eidolon are most likely that of a tulip trees, which are symbols of freedom, liberty, and free speech [which he unfortunately does not have] -> Native Americans would often use the inner bark of these trees for medicinal purposes too!
they can also just be decaying leaves, representing the deteriorating state of his body
HC for the road: Argenti is the only one he’s let see his missing eye. He fully intended to try and scare the Knight of Beauty off, try to force him to admit that his body wasn’t all he praised it to be, but instead Argenti just cupped his face and repeated his praises

SWEAR TO GOD IF I EVER FIND OUT WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FLORIOGRAPHY IN THE OWL HOUSE, MY AROMANTIC ASEXUAL ASS IS GONNA KISS THEM FULL RIGHT ON THE GODDAMN MOUTH.
Tumblr media
The flowers we see right after the kids return to the Boiling Isles are Purple Columbines, which symbolize "the Resolve to Win" and if that looks and sounds familiar, it's because it's the first flower on my original TOH Floriography post, the first time floriography was used in the show, and the flower that was used to introduce us to Willow Park.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
Tumblr media
The flowers we see growing when Willow is having her panic attack are Fuchsias.
Tumblr media
In Floriography, these flowers symbolize "True Emotions," "Freeing Deep Emotions," and "Confiding Love." Which all tie in so goddamn perfectly with the scene that I am gonna be buzzing for WEEKS.
Also, Fuchsias DO have another meaning as well.
They are a way of telling someone- or in this case, a group of someones who enjoy a certain pairing, perhaps- that they have "Good Taste <3"
