happy jay day <3

i love you so much cass <3
hi nyx :) happy (late) jay day <3
and, thank you, love <3 although my grief is incomparable with what i imagine his family and close friends are experiencing, it's been quite difficult. astro was actually the very first group i stanned; i knew them before i even knew who bts was. i found them through a kdrama called "to be continued" where they introduced a predebut ep called 'spring up' !! that was in 2015-2016, and i would've 100% called myself an aroha up until about 2018 (rise up era) .. so astro was a huge part of my "kpop journey" if you will, haha .. they brought me so much joy, and they were a group that i kept up with regularly until skz's debut.
i unfortunately can't take time to grieve wholly because of school obligations and life, but i've definitely been reminiscing. i stanned astro at such a happy time in my life, so going through their albums and listening to their songs has been really cathartic. their first three eps (and the rest of their albums) are beautifully done, and i would encourage anyone and everyone to take a listen both if they're mourning or if they just want good music recommendations. "to be continued" is also a wonderfully cute drama; it's very refreshing, and honestly one of the only kdramas i've been able to binge watch. knowing that he's still here in a way is comforting, i guess.
and, the cynic in myself tells me that it seems a bit silly to feel so much for a person i never met. but, moonbin was so bright and so kind. he was funny and he was gentle and his light was so undeniably strong; i can still see it in photos and videos, i can still hear it in songs, i can still feel it in the 12 year old girl that loved him with all of her heart. and, i'm so, so sorry that his death is already being sensationalized; i despise the fact that his memory is being bastardized by people who only want to exploit it—be it for fame, for recognition, or to comment on the industry itself. moonbin deserves none of it. no one ever does. all i can hope for is peace and healing—for his parents, for moon sua, for his friends, for aroha, and for him.
with all of this being said, i’m remembering him through his smile and all the happiness he brought me. i'm taking life one day at a time. i hope you're doing the same, my love. stay healthy <3

After leaving the Jedi Order, Ahsoka wore the colors of the 501st (even her Mandalorian armor matched).
