#I am starlight

Supernova

I am starlight.

A visual clarity

In the darkest night.

A glow of temerity

So grand and so bright that

My fire consumes the universe.

Just watch me ignite.

wrote an entire essay on discord but i think it’s such a shame that flat top’s costume went in a generic “edgy industrial” direction when his original design was clearly inspired by the underground punk scene happening at the time! napier was absolutely pulling from people he saw on the street and that’s why flats has such a strong look imo, the big bold eye makeup, the giant collar, the very specific cropped pants + visible socks + working shoes silhouette, even the shape of the hair evolves until it hits the massive flat top style

olc top is interesting bc he's specifically working class punk, like this is absolutely a construction or factory worker! the suspenders, the rolled sleeves, the steel-toed boots. stex has always had classism metaphors with rusty and the freight and i think it’s especially strong with flat top

Do you think the side of tiktok that’s obsessed with butch greaseball knows that female Spot Conlon was in that same theater about a year and a half ago

mahiru is genuinely my icon in revue starlight because she's so fucking funny like listen to me she's been PINING for karen for so long right they're BFFs she knows everything about karen and she takes pride in the fact that like wow there's no one closer to karen than I am.

then hikari shows up and mahiru goes into a tailspin like what tf is this why does karen know with this incredibly scary looking stranger and then she realizes they were childhood best friends and that they have a HISTORY and she sort of loses it for a while because the girl she likes' situationship from like grade school's come back and the girl she likes is absolutely completely head over heels for this girl and now what is mahiru supposed to do.

but then the resolution to the conflict is mahiru going yk what I can work with this and she basically grabs hikari and goes I have decided to make you mine as well

and it just works??? like hikari is so aloof and withdrawn and lowkey scary but her interactions with mahiru later on are SO funny like mahiru's out here telling her to clean her room and get her shit together and then the entire bit in the movie like???

she is an ICON and i want to be her actually.

Nightlight!

been going down a rabbit hole of golden age fics and this is my take on the nightlight design tee hee (I love him with all my heart and soul)

also it’s my personal head canon that nightlight was a past life of Jack’s and can access his star boy powers in life/death situations?? Idk but wouldn’t that make a cool future scene where jack can access past PAST lives’ memories and just see his cool space protector self like

anyway I love him bye

AGH FASHION DESIGNER SUGURU AND MODEL SATORU W A NEW INTERN DESIGNER UNDER THEIR WING 😞😞☹️ - 🌺

WAHHHH I LOVE THIS 🥺🥺🥺 the pining and flirting and slowburn of it all… model!satoru and his favorite designer suguru geto, both of them undeniably skilled and born with an eye for fashion….. well-known and adored……..

designer!suguru who gets tasked with showing you the ropes, who’s always so patient and kind despite your inexperience. diligent with his teaching but also so laidback, so easy to talk to… he looks intimidating, but he’s so polite that you can’t help but swoon a little. and he admires your enthusiasm so much…… grows fond of you soooo quickly bc you’re just such a breath of fresh air compared to the divas he’s forced to work with all the time. he thinks you’ve got real potential and he wants to nurture it.

and ofc you end up running into model!satoru eventually…. bc he’s always hanging around suguru whenever he gets the chance. and he’s maybe a little jealous that you’re hogging so much of his personal designer’s attention, but… he also thinks you’re so cute . T_T like a little puppy following suguru around… so excited to be apart of what you’ve dreamed of for so many years……… he looks into your eyes and sees the same sparkle he had before he made it big, and it makes his heart race.

yeah . i’m just thinking abt the peaceful coffee breaks with suguru….. how he’d insist on paying for your drink, ”since he’s your senior” (he wants to be your favorite </3)…… and how he’d just be so protective over his little intern. don’t get me started on the close proximity with satoru when you’re taking his measurements, the glance and smile he sends your way during an impromptu shoot… the way he always calls for you with a sweet coo of ”how’s my favorite intern doing today?”

😔😔😔 yeahhhhhh. they make me feel ill.

I just saw a TikTok saying, “I am a Nesta hater. There’s no universe where I would have ever treated my sibling the way she did. Her behavior was selfish and self destructive. She shouldn’t be forgiven.” (Paraphrasing)

Sighhhh. There’s so much I could say about this, but I’ll keep it short.

Some argue that you need to have been in Nesta’s position before to understand her. While that can help, there are still a lot of things Nesta has done that I wouldn’t. But that doesn’t make her an evil character—or me any better than her. I feel like so many people say “I would never” and act like that makes them so much better.

Everyone processes trauma differently, and while that doesn’t excuse Nesta’s actions, it’s unfair to dismiss her perspective by immediately jumping to, “Well, if it were me—” It’s not you. Comparing her behavior to what you think you would have done shuts down any effort to understand her. You can empathize with someone without condoning their actions.

But what I really want to talk about is forgiveness because there is such a lack of it in a lot of Nesta haters.

Yes, Nesta was wrong many times, but she acknowledged her mistakes and wanted to change. None of us are perfect. We all make mistakes we regret, and while we can’t change the past, we can work to be better. Nesta did—and continues to do—that every day.

People say, “Your trauma is not your fault, but how you respond to it is.” True. Nesta admitted she was wrong and worked hard to show she was changing, and is continuously working to be better. What more can she do?

"But when she told Feyre about the baby it was for all the wrong reasons." True. But growth is messy. She isn't going to be better overnight. She is going to make mistakes but it’s important that she acknowledged what she did was wrong right away. And she was so sorry for what she did.

We’ve all been a Nesta on some scale before: we’ve been hurt, acted out, and regretted it. Maybe not to family but to someone. Sometimes we do it without even realizing. Yes it’s wrong to take your pain out on others but if it’s already happened you can’t change the past. What matters from that point on is taking accountability, showing you’re sorry, working to stop from repeating the same behavior, and hoping for forgiveness.

If you think Nesta is irredeemable, maybe it’s not her that lacks humanity—it’s your ability to empathize and forgive.
