The Kuvira childhood vibes just hit me with a cute headcanon that expands nicely what I already developed here.

So I've always believed that little Kuvira was a prodigy who just needed positive reinforcements and the right environment for her to thrive. She was a quick learner, and once something genuinely caught her attention, she would fully devote herself to it. That's how she became part of the Zaofu troupe, as their youngest member, no less. Her interest initially came from her efforts to emulate Suyin because she realized she felt very happy when Suyin paid her attention and lavished her with praise. So, being the troupe one of the matriarch's favorite pet projects, Kuvira decided she wanted to find out what was all about. She had also heard Huan talk in length about it at the dinner table with enthusiasm. Her curiosity piqued, she asked for an audition, and like the little infuriating gremlin that she could be, she ended up stealing the spotlight from the lead dancer with her raw talent. That didn't endear her with the troupe, instigated by the lead dancer who didn't take well that a kid could outstage them. Suyin, fearing the ostracizing would reverse the progress with Kuvira who was finally leaving her taciturn and moody attitude behind, was ready to take her out of the troupe when she realized that the girl was completely unaware of the silly drama. During breaks, while the other dancers got together to gossip, Kuvira would join Huan, who, along with the stage hands, were in charge of the metal props the troupe used as part of their performance. Kuvira would sit down, and while she shared her snacks with him, she would watch Huan work as she listened to the explanations to his work, because despite his age, he took his art very seriously. Half of the time, she wouldn’t understand what he meant, but it didn't matter because she enjoyed listening to him and he liked that someone in the family aside from his mom took interest in his work, and they would end up coming up with even more grander and weirder ideas together. After a prank that Su suspected had been orchestrated by the stage hands and her kids, the diva dancer quit the troupe, and after that, the practices became drama free. The kids continued to hang out together until Kuvira joined the Zaofu Guard, and so they ended up drifting apart. But unbeknownst to Huan, Kuvira always kept in her pocket a small metal badgermole that Huan had sculpted for her during the troupe practices as a good luck charm, as reminder of the good times they shared together.

The Mayyas, "Horra"

A YT recommendation of a group new to me: an all-woman Lebanese precision dance troupe. They won America's Got Talent in 2022 and performed with Beyoncé at the opening of a luxury resort in Dubai. So, not exactly indie lo-fi. That said, this is the kind of video that merits enjoyment at whatever your highest-def is because it's quite opulent and visually imaginative.

অভিনব কায়দায় কলকাতার সম্ভ্রান্ত ক্লাবে অনুষ্ঠিত হল মেম্বারস ফ্যাশন লিগ

কলকাতা: সম্প্রতি শহরের বুকে হয়ে গেল একটা ফ্যাশন লিগ। অনেকটা আইপিএল-এর মতো ধাঁচে এই ফ্যাশন লিগের আয়োজন করেছিল কলকাতার ঐতিহ্যবাহী ‘দ্য স্যাটারডে ক্লাব’। তবে শুধুমাত্র ক্লাবের সদস্যরাই অংশগ্রহণ করেছেন এই লিগে। আর বিচারকের আসনে ছিলেন অভিনেত্রী পল্লবী চট্টোপাধ্যায়, অভিনেতা শন বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায় এবং গুঞ্জন নিগম। সম্প্রতি অনুষ্ঠিত হয়েছে স্যাটারডে ক্লাবের মেম্বারস ফ্যাশন লিগ। তাতে ছিল তিনটি রাউন্ড। সেখানে…
