From all of the cast who's best friends with who? Like who would call dibs when teaming up?

Welp:

It's no surprise that Cole's go-to choice is Zane, but beyond the elephant in the room, they are each other's oldest + longest-lasting friend, and know each other best. They often fall into line with one another without even having to ask!

Similar to Cole and Zane, Kai and Jay tend to fall into sync automatically, as despite their tendency to take shots at each other their elements complement one another well and they both know how to get the most out of each other's fighting style.

If Nya and Lloyd weren't already Ride or Die, they'd wind up with one another anyway given how much the Core Four tend to head off doing their own thing a fair chunk of the time. Suits Nya just fine though—although we gotta be careful that Lloyd's enthusiastically destructive tendancies don't rub off on her snknksnk

Antonia probably shouldn't be weaseling her way into anything remotely dangerous, but when she does she's obviously tagging along with Jesse (at least, until Nelson gets into the picture). Jesse never fights it because he knows he's not gonna win shgfdhggd

Sunni's de facto best friend may be Samantha, but whenever she does wind up entangled with some Ninja Things, she's tag-teaming with Miranda (in which they may get distracted talking about Jay or sci-fi topics), and/or Harleigh (depending on the point-in-time...and Harleigh's mood)

This is prolly gonna sound somewhat bizarre, but I plan to have Skylor and Pixal team up often because they are both badass and cool and I desire more of their dynamic. We had a teeny taste in Crystalized and I want MOAR (...at least, once Pixal starts to warm-up to Skylor after, y'know, Skylor's dad tearing her apart and stuff.)

Olivia: Since Nya has replaced me with garbage, I'll just have to take Bridget instead 😤  Bridget: No, no you're nOT—

Brad/Sally/Gene and Chad/Maggie/Meghan all come as packaged set within their trios, though while they're not ~main~ characters, they'll show up often enough during shenanigans to be mentioned and I love their dynamics with one another (despite Chad's group being jerks at this moment in time) but aaaah I'm so excited to use them more—they're not exactly friends but they do eventually see the similarities in one another and it's so fun

Harumi, meanwhile:

Since Twitter is not among us anymore (Brazilian core 😔) I feel kinda obligated to post my old works here, to compense my lack of new content.

Mermaid! AU where Sebas and Maggy are mermaids, Ominis is a fish and Liam is just there cause I wanted to

18x2 Beyond Youthful Days

Movies watched in 2024

18x2 Beyond Youthful Days (2024, Taiwan/Japan)

Director: Michihito Fujii

Writers: Michihito Fujii & Hirokawa Hayashida (based on the travelogue by Jimmy Lai)

Mini-review:

This is the third Michihito Fujii movie I've watched this year, and at this point it's become clear that I really, really connect with his filmmaking voice and style. There's something about his work that feels nostalgic and melancholic in a very personal way. And in this particular case, the main character is played by one of my favorite actors in the world, Greg Hsu, who does as great as I've come to expect of him. The story itself is nothing groundbreaking, but it's very well-told and is further elevated by the stunning cinematography, which turns the film into a gorgeous scenic showcase for both Taiwan and Japan. So yeah, 18x2 Beyond Youthful Days is a beautifully filmed and acted movie that will satisfy anyone looking for a solid tearjerker.
