Hong Kong Day 3 - Tsim Sha Tsui

After a super duper tiring day at Hong Kong Disneyland, we have decided that Day 3 should be Free and Easy. We were extremely wrong.

In the morning, we wanted the kids to experience Hong Kong Tramways A.K.A. Ding Ding Tram. It's cheap, very comfortable especially on second floor due to the cold winds and convenient. It goes up and down of Hong Kong Island for the same price.

We stopped a few blocks away from Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, and we slowly walked there through the buildings, then along the beautiful seaside walkway. Then we found out that the ferry to Tsim Sha Tsui is there. So we took the ferry to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Upon reaching Tsim Sha Tsui, we took a picture with Chubby Heart by renowned British designer Anya Hindmarch. Then we walked to K11 MUSEA Mall.  @BabyZacToys  offered to carry mom's bag.

K11 MUSEA is a very new mall, just opened in August 2019. The entire mall smells of beautiful sweet vanilla, very pleasant. There are many shops, many eateries, we had a sushi boat at the food court downstairs. Bought some French bread along the way. After that, we explored the mall a bit, and had bubble tea at 6th floor then we went up to 7th floor to two free kids playground, Phoenix (5 and up) and Hen (below 5 years old). Then we stumbled upon Shell's event there and had some fun activities there. Since we decided to stay for the light show at 8pm. We let the kids play at the playground until closing time at 6pm.

Then we waited outside and had our bread. The light show was....hmmmm.... music should be louder. We took the train to Fortress Hill MTR for the super famous dessert shop called Fook Yuen to get some dessert then we went back to hotel by taxi. Dessert was super good!!

im soooooo emotion over dearly beloathed. it is so good as an epistolary work, and i genuinely feel like that format/style/genre worked really well for the story, it let us know the characters through how they portray themselves to others and who they are to different people/groups. i also loved how my understanding of Freth grew naturally over the course of reading it, I didn't notice until i was like "oh yeah that's just the culture there. ofc they'd do something like that" because it was so fluid and seamless.

every twist was well set up and just. it was crack-y and comedic, but those only made the emotional parts hit harder????

anyways. favorite random character/not main one. go! (i choose herohqphobic) also was there any like. reference or small thing (maybe characters who had different usernames across platforms or something?) that you loved and nobody seemed to notice?

i want to know. this is my new blorbo. entire fucking thing

Hii thank you for reading 🥺🙏

I could genuinely go on and on about Freth as a city because it's based after where I was raised, Hong Kong. The superhero genre is most commonly associated with American comics. It feels like their cities are either in USA or USA-inspired. To me there's subconsciously an inherent USA vibe even if that's not the actual case. I felt the pull myself before going, hold on, I live in a city, it's a pretty significant city, and theoretically superheroes can exist anywhere.

I'm of course biased on this but Hong Kong is an interesting city with interesting implications if you use it for a setting. And especially because it naturally seems so "cyberpunk". Densely populated, gives off the impression of being highly urbanised, but 70% of the land is not developed. Has a natural harbour, next to the sea, at the mouth of a river, but is hilly and full of scenic spots. Well developed public transport system (if the rail goes down for half an hour it gets on the news). The city with the most skyscrapers in the world, has one of the world's highest life expectancy (I'm still confused by this lol), ranked 4 in HDI for 2022 (also confused by this 💀 like we're above Denmark and Sweden?).

[Night view of Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong Tourism Board]

I wanted Freth to be busy, hectic, fast-paced, rich, technologically savvy. A glittering city with heroes for celebrities. Freth is an important port which is why the heroes fight so hard to protect its infrastructure for the ~economy~. But then the government decides the heroes are getting too powerful and culls the herd.

Anyways. I love all the random characters. Flora balefires_thighs had quite the arc pivoting from Tach anti to Tach fan (and is still bitchless, rip), but I have to go with arcussy because I love that name 😭😭😭 like Arucs is their babygirl meow meow grown adult son who cheated and got "cancelled" etc but it's fine ❤️ they still love his annoying ass ❤️

Small thing that didn't get picked up on! The location names! I based a lot of those on existing places in Hong Kong— Triple Shark Territory (Tsim Sha Tsui), Cannon Hill (Fortress Hill), Crossway (Causeway Bay), etc. Lots of these names have animals in them, like Dolphin Bay and Starlingfield, and these are based after real species that can be found in HK— except for one. Ravenwood. I don't think ravens exist in Hong Kong, making it fitting for an underground human experimentation lab. I don't expect anyone to know this though, it's more of a fun niche trivia for myself.

I don't know if this is obvious or not, but Cora has a crush on Archie. And Reina likes Cora while Lyra and Ben are doing their whole situationship thing. The consequences of crushing on your best friend.

Final note: the four main characters spell out Blue Bats. Blue for civilian names (Ben, Lyra, Uma, Ethan (he chooses this eventually)), and Bats for (future) hero names (Balefire, A??, Tachythanatous, S??). The year is also 827 because Aug 27 is when the MCC9 teams dropped lol. 🤡

Thank you so much for reading, glad you enjoyed it! <3 <3
