Sakha headcanon post - courtesy of my conversations with @topipaku !! Thank you 馃檹
Huge huge film bro he loves discussing films and makes his own
I headcanon that he is very much like a lawyer when it comes to business stuff but this somewhat "strong headed/argumentative" mentality also extends to how he critiques certain films or goes about explaining them
His favorite type of film is comedy/horror and a lot of his own projects involves someone dying in some shape or form
You can blame his love of everything morbid on Even, Evenk and Yukaghir, who often (when he was younger) tell him some pretty spooky stories (such as the Even folk tale of a mother turning into a cuckoo because her children would not give her a helping hand)
In all honesty they probably told him those stories to try and scare him into behaving - well now he's just a huge horror fan
Sakha has told many of these same spooky stories to Dolgan when she was younger
Speaking of Dolgan - whilst she's grateful for the hand Sakha had in raising her, she wants her own identity outside of him. Often Dolgan people are just labelled as being Sakha
Really good friends with Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan because they are #Turkic but also because they like sharing their films/writing together - they screen each other's films in cinemas and in Kazakhstan, operas based on the Sakha "Olonkho" myth are being held.
Writers from Kazakhstan and Sakha signed a co operation agreement, and in Kyrgyzstan there is a monument dedicated to the Sakha politician and writer Maxim Kirovich
However - despite their love of sharing each other's writing, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan are quite surprised at how often Sakha's stories end in death !
Kazakhstan often jokes to Sakha that he should become independent
I definitely think these three share a groupchat together
He has an inside joke with Buryatia about the both of them being Japanese or secretly being Japanese. This is because both Sakha and Buryat intelligentsia were accused of being spies for the Japanese Empire (by Russia) at the time
Needless to say, Japan is definitely shooting them questionable looks when he overhears them make that joke
I think these days he has a bit of friendly competition with Buryatia over who is the most popular/more relevant group in Siberia
Really likes rap music !!
His relationship with Mongolia is very funny - in Sakha there is something of a myth that the most powerful faction of Genghis Khan's army was comprised of Sakha soldiers.
In reality, Sakha was most likely a child during this time and the Sakha people were most definitely not a part of the Mongol army
I think Sakha and Mongolia are friendly but Sakha has a little bit of a fascination with Mongolia. There are Sakha artists such as Afanasy Osipov who paints scenes of Mongols, and there is a film called "The secret of Genghis Khan", and apparently the Republic of Sakha was the initiator of the filming process ?
Very big into wrestling - in fact he enjoys challenging Mongolia even if Mongolia doesn't really reciprocate. He doesn't care that Mongolia is technically an elder to him, he'll do it regardless !
He is good friends with Chechnya because of their shared love of wrestling
Good relationship with both North and South Korea, though these days he's closer to South Korea
A lot of North Koreans were sent to Sakha under the USSR and mined gold , with some staying to teach farming to the Sakha
There is a Sakha-Korean school in Sakha and there are people in Sakha who refer to themselves as being "Sakha-Koreans" - presumably from the North Koreans who were sent to Sakha
South Korea indulges Sakha on his love for films. There was an exhibition of Sakha films that were held in South Korea, and South Korea was the first to make an article about Sakha films
For a while, there were even direct flights from Yakutsk to a city in South Korea !
Sad that his films aren't really taken seriously on a more global scale :(
I'd say he's also good friends with Tuva as similar to Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan - both are Turkic and Sakha likes talking to people he relates to, especially as Siberia doesn't really have many Turkic groups

Tigress, the last holder of the tiger miraculous. She's from Chechnya

Chechen Wars
Tigress was there when it all started. The first acts of independence. She'd been holding the Chechen flag with the crowd of people when the Russian troops were sent in. She happened to notice another miraculous holder in the Russian crowd. Is that the snow leopard? Are they here to stop the revolution?
"Tigress, this needs to stop," Snow Leopard whispered into her ear. "No," Tigress said, glaring at Snow Leopard. "My people deserve to be free." "Won't be my fault if we need to find a new tiger holder," Snow Leopard said.
There she lay. Aiza Dudyin. Close to her right hand is the miraculous of the tiger. Red eyes of Rurik look down at her. It took a moment for him to speak. When he did, he said, "I warned you to stop." Then he picked up the miraculous. Roarr appeared out of the miraculous, looking between Rurik and Aiza laying on the ground. Realization soon dawned on the kwami. Bubbles came out of their mouth when they tried to say her name. "You're getting a new owner," Rurik said to Roarr.
Aino Korhonen. Pink haired and green-eyed Finnish male. He put on the panjas bracelet and out came Roarr. Both look at each other for a moment before Aino spoke up, saying, "I'm Aino." "Roarr," the kwami said. "I'm the kwami of the tiger."
