#bright clear night

30. Goodbye, November

I began this month feeling hopeful; we had just emerged from a particularly warm October. Indian summer. Evenings shorter but not quite cold enough to realise the inevitability of the hibernation season. Then as November progressed, I succumbed to the misery of short evenings and lack of vitamin D. It was mostly due to not getting out as often as I would like. It’s being too cold, my worry over…

The Sun and Stars(💕)

So, an idea I've been tossing around for the last little while in S&TF has been Nezuko creating her own Breath Style. Specifically mixing Sun and Sound Breathing as the main bases. And, as you can probably guess, this Breath Style is going to be called Star Breathing.

And earlier this week, I just realized the genius poetry behind the three Breath Styles named after celestial bodies(Sun, Moon, and Stars)!

The Sun is the brightest and closest light we have in our universe. Sun Breathing is the most powerful Breath Style.

The moon's light comes from reflecting the sun. Bright, but not nearly as much as the sun. Michikatsu was powerful, but still could never match Yoriichi despite being his twin(reflection). And I believe Moon Breathing is the second most powerful Breath Style, even before the Blood Demon Art modifications.

And the stars are just as powerful as the sun, they're just farther away and we can't see them when the sun is out. But when they do get to shine, they're just as brilliant. Nezuko, being trained by an ex-shinobi and three ex-kunoichi, has been taught skills to disappear and strike from a distance. And despite having a similar potential to Tanjirou, Nezuko is going to be mostly disregarded by Muzan whenever Tanjirou is close by. But Sun Breathing is in her blood, the same as her brother and father.

TL; DR, Moon reflects Sun but not as powerful, but Stars shine with their own power despite being outshined by the sun.

And I think this will especially create a fun parallel between the Nighttime Breath Users(Kokushibo and Nezuko). But I'll leave that for another time!

so it's like this. everyone's raving about how much better your team is and how it can be your year. and everyone loves you and thinks you're the best at your job and it should be perfect. you should be perfect. you’re where you’ve always wanted to be and your future is bright. and who cares if you don’t get the big award nominations because your team loves you and your city loves you and everyone loves you.

but it's like. if everyone loves you and you're all better and you’re perfect why have you been left for dead right. like why does everyone else get a shiny new face to help out. to be better. they wanted strong defense and you gave them strong defense. they said that’s not enough you need to give more offense and you gave more offense. they said jump and you said how high. and you’ve worked your ass off and all you're left with is the same corpse they have made you drag around for years. all you’re left with is a bunch of “maybe”s. maybe he’ll get better this year. maybe we can call him up. maybe we can give you something of fucking substance.

then they say they’ll trade your best friend and it's like. well maybe if you had managed to be even better dragging around a series of corpses. if you had been perfect. maybe you could have at least won with him. but you didn't! you couldn’t! and it’s not your fault and nobody is saying it’s you’re fault and isn’t that worse? being near perfect and putting everything you have out there but still having no control of the situation? what separates you from sisyphus pushing that boulder?

you work and you break records and you work and you get hit in the face and you work and you sleep it off like it’s nothing and you work and you can’t even crack top five in the eyes of people who have never fucking gone through what you have and you work and you never dare to complain and you fucking work.

and your reward is more work since you take to it so well. if you can hold the weight of the world on your shoulders so prettily why would anyone stop you. why not wait until you crumble, since you clearly love it so much.

Oh Yew oh Yew what is your hue? What talons control you? Are you Blue are you Red? Where did you rest your head? Before the wolves came through and took you? Oh Yew oh Yew what is your hue? Who stole your petals away from you? A poor soul bound to lose.

Less harsh version everyone look at my talons I’m so proud of them

@igniida : "My sunflower. Being with you is just like pulling two SSR's in one day." Idia attempting to be romantic with Salem

“ ... ” At first it looks like the flirtation doesn't register with Salem, the redhead merely slow blinking in response. Despite being in proximity with Idia for so long, it can sometimes be difficult to remember what all his lingo means. In fact, in recent months they've started using a separate notebook full of definitions and descriptions of the things Idia says. Hopefully with that, they'll be able to keep up with him in due time.

Instead of saying anything in response, Salem wordlessly steps out of the room, briefly leaving Idia in perplexed panic. When they return, they have their Idia lexicon in hand. They open the page on gacha terms and skim the contents before promptly closing it again. When Salem's eyes meet Idia's again, their lips have curved upward in a minute smile. Without a word they lean forward to press a soft kiss to their boyfriend's flushed cheek, still smiling when they withdraw.

“ Thank you, Idia. You're my most prized UR card. ” They're not sure if that's the correct way to phrase it, but they hope Idia will still understand what they're trying to say.

I looked for the comet at 02:30 EST on 02/03/2023. Honestly unsure if I saw it - squatting on a hillside with a binoculars and stellarium-web.org in my lap, and I triangulated its position between Capella, Muscida (the head of Ursa Major), and Mirfak. According to the star map it’s right over 21 Camelopardalis right now from my location, so maybe they were indistinguishable from each other. And its neighbours seem to align with the quadrant of stars (clockwise: HD 38284, 17 Camelopardalis, 21 Camelopardalis, 31 Camelopardalis ?) forming a squat rhombus I kept landing on when I aimed the binoculars where I thought ZTF would be.

But now it is 03:30 and I’ve been reading about those stars and their apparent visual magnitudes. And I found out that 21 Camelopardalis’s apparent magnitude is 6.86, which is fairly dim and hard to see. I tried finding the magnitude of the green comet and one website recorded 4.4 for today, others were slightly higher so I’m not sure. But it should be brighter than 21 Cam until it runs away. So maybe what I saw was the comet. Or maybe I am full of shit and misread the map and misnavigated the sky. I will be in a darker location before it leaves us so I’ll keep looking.

Regardless!! I did not know any of these stars before tonight. Nor did I know how many more faint stars you can see with binoculars. Next time I am under a dark sky I’ll peek at the milky way through binocs and experience a strong emotion. The temporary resident of our sky has taught me things about the permanent ones, and that’s a worthy gain. n_n

now view on a dark theme for a comet socializing with stars:
