it's fun explaining to other sikhs that my family has lived in malaysia since the 1870s so i think we missed a lot of the changes made to sikhi - including just the way sikhi is defined, understood, positioned, etc - by the singh sabha movement as well as changes to punjabi as a language and 'ethnicity' and similar things that have occurred since, if we understand that none of these things are static and rather elastic over time. i don't think we missed it entirely, my family has kept in contact with extended family in punjab and i know my grandparents spent a lot of time there and i know family who have taken pilgrimage to harmandir sahib but i've learned there are a lot of aspects of the way we do things that mainland sikhs find like... particularly antiquated or unrefined, including the dialect of punjabi spoken by my family which has been described to me as 'very rough and low class and old in a bad way' lmfao.
#my family is from moga originally (yeah yeah nri district) but ive met other sikhs from moga and theyve said our punjabi sounds weird loool#it kind of reminds me of the way mainland french describe quebecois tbh esp with quebecois dialect being considered antiquated

[Beer hall] art by Miki Katoh, depicting a fashionable early 20th century moga waitress.
Western locations, such as cafés and beer halls, were then all the rage in Japan and often employed young fashionable women as headliners.
Her attire here is inspired by a real meisen weave kimono from the Kiryuu Masako collection, which is featured in an exposition at the Yayoi Museum.

Hi! Are you still taking orders or something? If so, I have an idea for you~ For example, a werewolf × a Fox!the reader is like enemies-lovers. Where we tease him all the time, and it really annoys him, ho-ho~
I was listening to a song when I got the inspo for this. It's in Croatian, by a band called Tutti Frutti, and the lyrics go like this (my translation):
Kao srna gonjena preko snijega duboka (Like a pursued doe in the deep snow) Iza moga ramena skloni se od lovaca (Hide from hunters behind my shoulder) S oba oka sklopljena (With both of your eyes closed)
Thank you for the ask! This fic got a bit long so I'll split it in two, I apologize ^^'
Don't You Dare! (part 1)
Monstertober 2024 - day 13 [ Mating / Hunting season ] by @/ozzgin
[ m!werewolf x fox hybrid fem!reader ]
You two grew up together. Since your clans have lived next to each other peacefully sharing a vast forest for many years, that wasn't so unusual. You and Ash were friends when you were kids, but he was too shy and aloof for your teen tastes, and you slowly grew distant.
Today, for the first time, you were tasked of guarding the eastern part of the forest. The hunting season began just a few days ago.
"Ugh, you're so booooring," you complain. "Let's at least play a game."
"We're supposed to be watchful," he retorts.
"You know hunters never come this far so early. It will be a peaceful evening, I just know it. Come on, Ash, truth or dare?" The werewolf huffs and keeps walking in front of you. How dares he ignore you! You take your staff and smack his ass.
Ash jumps from shock and swings his strong arm, ready to strike. With a swift leap backward, you escape him, giggling. When he realizes it was only you teasing him, he growls. He is kinda cute when he's angry. "Don't do that! I could've..."
"What? You're too big and slow for me. Truth or dare, Ash? I'll slap your cute ass until you accept."
His werewolf ears fall behind and he awkwardly rubs the back of his head. With another huff, he continues walking. "Uhh... Truth?"
"Have you ever orally pleased someone?"
He trips and turns toward you in shock. "That's a really private question!"
"That's the game, pup, you know the rules." You loved calling him pup because he was three years younger than you and everyone knows werewolves mature slower than fox hybrids.
He scowls at you but answers, as quietly as he could: "Yes..."
"Oh you're a big man now! Good job, pup, I'm glad you know how to please your partners." He shakes his head and continues walking, faster than before. You run after him. "I choose dare!" You're sure he heard you, but he was quiet for quite a while before asking his question.
"I dare you to—" but he suddenly stops and sniffs the wind. He looks at you and and swallows hard. "D-do you know you're... you're about to..."
Why is he so uncomfortable all of a sudden? "Ash, speak up, I can't hear you!" you shout, impatiently dragging your fox tail across the ground. But the silly big pup in front of you continues being awkward. You can sense he is blushing, even though you can't see that on his canine face. "ASH!"
A rifle blast shuts you up, and a bullet flies dangerously near Ash's face. Hunters!
Instinct immediately kicks in and you start running. You are faster than Ash, but you would never leave him behind. Hunters are apparently too far away because they don't shoot again. Still, your heart is racing, fear and excitement electrifying your blood and also... also...
Oh no.
Your cycle. You're in heat! It's still early and you can focus on other things, but... You need to get to a safe place, quickly.
"Ash, I'm—"
"I know," he immediately replies, checking your surroundings. "There is a waterfall not far from here. The water will hide us and our tracks."
You change direction and very soon you hear the rushing in the bottom of a ravine. Of course, you and Ash have no problem getting down safely and you jump into the shallow stream. It is cold and fast, but walking upstream will confuse your pursuers. Also, you need to warn your clans as soon as possible. Yes, you need to focus on that. Only that. Not on how tall Ash is or how good he smells. Or how you always thought he was smart and sweet. And how you saw him swimming once. Or how you wanted to push your finger into his sheath and see what's inside. Or how... shit.
Your pussy started aching, itching, pulsating from need. You had to press it, rub it, stimulate it somehow or you'll go mad. You squeeze your thighs together, pushing your fist against your entrance, with a weak whimper - and you trip, almost dropping your staff. "Fuck, Ash. I can't hold it."
Ash stops but doesn't help you - he hasn't said a single word the entire time or looked at you. And he was constantly trying to walk upwind from you. "Do it quickly and we'll continue. I'll... keep watch."
That idiot pup. "Ash..." Your voice got a note of urgency. "Don't make me beg."
His ears perk up and he stares at you all big eyed, looking like a virgin doe-eyed buck. You roll your eyes, irritated. "Just my luck - I'm horny as a rabbit, and stuck between rifles and a cherry boy. Maybe rifles will give me..."
You are interrupted by a hand grabbing your throat. The other palm is on your ass squeezing it like a sponge. Ash is in your face, snout almost touching your nose. He is quietly growling, but you feel that tremble in your core.
"You chose dare, didn't you?" he asks you. His palm slides from your ass, follows the roundness of your hips and cups your mound. The tip of his finger immediately finds your aching clit. You gasp. "I dare you not to scream when you cum with my knot inside you."
[ part 2 ]

Becoming One with Life
" Wilderness wild and perilous be, deep in the heart of danger Wilderness wild and perilous be, filling your heart with fire
Mountains rise in the distance. Stalwart as the stars fall, fading forever.
Roads ever weaving. Soul ever seeking the hunter's mark "
Everytime I listen or think about the main theme of Monster Hunter 3, To One with Life, I can't help but feel a deep warm feeling in my hear that remind me what I love about Monster Hunter.
From Moga's seacoast to the Misty Peeks of Yukumo, there is a story that it's written. Not just about just fighting powerful Monsters or Elder Dragons such as Ceadeus, Amatsu or Alatreon.
It's about journeys and meeting and making bond with other peoples. Discovering new cultures and countries. About friendship and understanning. Of being amaze by the richess of Nature.
About how all lives, Humans as Monsters are connected a world full danger and beauty.
—————————————————————————————————
Lyrics : The Hunter's Mark; Erutan [link]

For some reason I had a sudden urge to make some Moga- Japanese 'modern girls' from the period after WW1- possibly because I've been looking at a lot of Kimono Hime scans recently, and definatley after seeing this photo! Here's a small collection of hairs with the style in mind. For cloche and curl, I made a second version with the bangs alpha edited out, which is included in the same zip. For the Lorna hat, I made a texture with a simple wrap style design. All the hats are in a variety of Aelia colours. The clip on AF003 is a tortoiseshell design (the original version was just plain black), but it's so small I don't know how noticeable it is, aha. Everything is in the original Afterglow naturals family only, packaged by family, with meshes included in the zips and everything compressorized.
Credits: EAxis, Trapping, Rented-space, Digitalskinz, Bunhead and Lidiqnata for the meshes, Antoninko for the afterglow textures and actions! check @the-afterglow-archive for more Afterglow ₊˚⊹♡

“You're on a path in the woods. And at the end of that path, is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin, is a knight. You are here to slay him. If you don't, it will be the end of the world.”
Please accept my meager shitty art as we come back for part three of the "Moga fuses her hyperfixations together" saga! Aka: Slay the Knight AU!
Here's what I think Emilia and Subaru would look like, in true STP fashion I imagine both would never be referred to by name, instead being The Knight and The Frozen Bond (hah, get it?)
I made Emilia a little scary (and kinda Satella-esque), but that's mainly because from what we see in The Princess and The Dragon route, The Long Quiet is just actually fucking scary, so having Emilia be similarly intimidating would be fun.
Though I do think her personality would remain the same in this au, mainly because she's nice enough that she would naturally play mediator to the the voices, but malleable enough that she could just end up going with their whims when pushed enough.
Now for Subaru, I actually wanted to give him a definitive outfit that would kinda function like the Princess's dress, something that is a constant in every design but changed to fit the theme, the recognizable trait that showcases that no matter how fucked up these forms get they're still the same person
That's kinda why the little cape is there, it's supposed to be a significant design choice that can be warped with future forms
For the official lore, I like to think that it's still actually very similar:
The Frozen Bond, the manifestation/god of stasis, consistency, the chilling frozen in time allure of stagnation
While Subaru would be something like The Returning Cycle, the manifestation/god if constant change, perspective and identities splitting depending on choices, the constant cycle of time
Together they'd make the cycle of life and death, in a sense, and since Echidna in canon was trying to find a way to reach immortality, it is only fitting that she would split them apart and attempt to pit them against the other, as to goad Emilia into killing Subaru, this ending the concept of change, making it so that there is no means of which others can die.
But that's what I have for the moment, now, let's talk about some more ideas I have for the IF Barus
The Prisoner, my beloved
I rewatched someone playing her route and it dawned on me when The Shifting Mound described her as a vessel, but she's oddly a lot like Slothbaru
The idea of someone cautious to the point of stagnation, content to let the world pass her and remain in inaction, I mean, that's literally what Sloth is shown to be in the og series. That's also inherently what Slothbaru did when he took Rem's hand and ran away, leaving everyone else to die, but gaining a happy life for himself
Prisoner is like an Slothbaru that can't take Rem's hand, content to let the world pass him by for the sake of self preservation, but stuck in one place without the chance of running away, he can only wait and see because he's inherently passive, as he thinks he has no other choice
The Adversary, however, is the funniest one I think
Someone mentioned in the last post in the tags that Adversary is kinda Smolbaru coded, so I went back to read the arena fights in arc 7 and y'know what? They're correct, they're absolutely right, The Adversary is very much just Smolbaru
Which is funny, because The Adversary is supposed to be bigger and stronger than usual, though maybe it's either just that his personality is Smolbaru and his appearance is still intimidating, or we go all in and have Smolbaru just absolutely kick Emilia's ass with his bare hands in this one
Either way, I love it, also this is the route where Priscilla (Voice of the Proud) would show up, so having an Arc 7 Baru here would be a nice touch
Ok so I'm about to sound unhinged, but the Grey's
What if they were Natsumi.
Now, look, I have no evidence to back me up on this, I'm going off from pure vibes alone, but like what if
Honestly, it would be fun to have most of the Deadbarus be in some way or another Natsumi coded, though that would be fused with the Baru that lead to their routes in the first place (like Arc 1 Baru for the Burned Grey and Slothbaru for the Drowned Grey)
I mean, look at The Wraith and The Spectre
Imagine if the Spectre was more akin to Natsumi in her purest form, since the Spectre is actually surprisingly chill and nice about this whole thing, and then if you attempt to leave him there, you get the Wraith
A withered rotten version of Natsumi, falling apart at the seams and determined to hitch a ride and finally leave
In more confirmed Barus; Wrathbaru as The Witch and The Thorn, Greedbaru as Happily Ever After and Arc 1-2 Baru as The Damsel, The Nightmare would be Gluttonybaru and A Moment Of Clarity would still be Gluttonybaru but with more Louis/Rui elements
Again, I accept suggestions, and tell me if you want me to make more art for this AU, maybe I can draw more Barus and also the voices, who knows?
Edit: good news gang, I actually did in fact write this! The first chapter of this au is out here!

We start being able to see the difference between what people say when de-languaged. The 'moga' is still common, but it starts to differentiate itself. Bau even used a completely new construction in "gabagobe".
We've finally reached the 11 pods from last loop. Nico's back in full force.
Oooh, this is cool. Those precepts share the same 'fu' beginning as every Japanese negation, so it's practically like Nico just invented ten new negations!
Oh, boy. We've reached the lore dump part of the fight! You know what that means- Language is going extinct.
The way Nico now refers to the "I" instead of the "previous me" is great to see. I have trouble connecting my own self-perception with the me from 10 years ago, let alone 200!
Ikutachi: the 'great blade of life. Owned by Susano'o the Storm God.
Chandrahas: an indestructible sword gifted to the rakshasa Ravana by Shiva.
Also, get fucked.
I adore how these two are being all lovey-dovey while Feng is just DBZ powering up in the foreground.
Hey, his aura is literally spikier than most souls! He's so shōnen his soul looks different!
And the 'game arc' comes to a close in an incredibly Undead Unluck way- with the antagonist getting mad and flipping the table.

NEW STICKERS!!!
I just got my new restock bundle, and alongside matte versions of my Elden Ring and Ghibli stickers I also got a new design featuring the Lagiacrus from Monster Hunter!
I took the opportunity to test out Stickerninja's vaporwave printing, and mapped a shiny layer to mimic dappled water reflections across the scales, so I've got a limited stock of shiny prints alongside the matte print, I'm really proud of how they turned out and I'll definitely be playing with this more in the future. Check them out here:

Monster Hunter has had a long history of having a quirky girl sidekick that gives you quests. The earliest I remember it was the Moga Sweetheart in Tri, retroactively named Aisha years later. She had a whole storyline about being a city girl finding herself at home and settling in with the laid-back country folk of Moga and their rural lifestyle, to point that she's the arguing on the village's behalf for the Hunter Guild to lend support to fighting Caedeus instead of condemning the village and telling the residents to evacuate. It's all off screen, but she has stuff. The Guildmarm from the DS games and her raging monster lust is very well known and well liked as well, even as she seems to actively shoot the player down because she wants that Brachydios dick, not a human. I wouldn't be surprised to find out this was also true in the first game and Freedom Unite, but I don't remember, and in the games I didn't play like Generations or Does.
So it's not all together surprising that Capcom leaned into this angle a bit more heavily with the Handler in World. She's your Quirky Girl Sidekick that gives you quests, but there was a very harsh reaction to her, unprecedented in hostility compared to previous Quest Girls.
It could be that World itself was a polarizing game, and she became the face it, so it was dislike by association. It could also be that Monster Hunter gained a lot of mainstream Western popularity with World, having been primarily a Japan exclusive franchise with only occasional English localizations on handheld, so there was a new vocal demographic being introduced to the franchise. Personally I blame the English localization shortening "partner" into "Pard", that is not a flattering nickname.
The real reason though, I think it was just how ubiquitous the Handler was. World had more cutscenes than any Monster Hunter game before it, and the Handler was in just about all of them, oftentimes getting in trouble and needing to be saved. Her portrait would pop up mid quest to give unsolicited hints, some of which weren't entirely helpful. She would be at every camp, emoting at you when you entered or fainted. Every previous Quest Girl was a static figure that you saw when starting a quest to wish you well, and that was about it, but Handler was everywhere. She had so much screentime, constantly. It's not hard to understand that some people would get tired of her, likely the same ones that couldn't stand Navi in Ocarina of Time.
Rise was a step back from this with Hinoa and Minoto once again just hanging in the village to give you quests, but also appearing in cutsces and being central to the story, and I don't think I need to elaborate on how loved the two of them are. Sunbreak then expanded on this with Fiorayne, who rather than being a quest girl, was an active participant in hunts, establishing her as a peer rather than a sidekick, as well as giving Hinoa and Minoto the ability to fight alongside you, which only made them more popular.
And now Wilds gives us Alma, who is ever present in the same way the Handler is. She isn't just everywhere, she actively follows you around the map, visible on the periphery as you fight, commenting on your surroundings, and so on. Hell she tries to decide your weapon for you in the tutorial. So far people seem to like her from what I've seen, but once the full game is out I'll be curious to see what people think, if she fares better than Handler, and if so, what's the determining factor.

Istiqomah isn’t all about tukar baju ketat kepada baju longgar, tudung singkat ke tudung labuh, or dari solat bolong-bolong to solat penuh lima waktu.. but to leave and avoid all the sins that will make you feel further from Allah.
Tak mudah, I know because I bet we are all struggling with our own struggles which we don’t talked about. Orang cuma dengar kata-kata positive yang keluar dari mulut kita, cuma nampak senyuman kita, but no one really knows whats happening behind the scenes.
But that too doesn’t make us a hypocrites, but to set as a reminder for us during our iman plunge to the lowest, that we have to keep going and even if we fall into the same hole, we have to keep rising, dust the dirt off, and always, always seek for Allah forgiveness.
Percayalah, jika masih ada rasa kesal dan sedih kerana gagal menghindari sesuatu perkara itu, ketahuilah masih ada iman dalam hati kita. Teruskan berusaha, sama-sama… moga suatu hari nanti, kita semua akan menemukan titik lelah sehinggakan kita tak sudi lagi untuk mengulangi kesalahan tersebut bukan kerana kita ni dah hebat, tetapi kerana besarnya kasih sayang Tuhan, yang melindungi kita dari terjatuh dalam perangkap yang sama.

Undead Unluck Chapter 202 Spoilers!!
At first, I thought the title didn't make sense. Then I read on and oh it makes so much sense.
Of all languages... French. 6997 languages. And you chose French. Nico you USAmerican.
But yeah the game is extremely biased. Unless you're a polyglot, you're gonna lose against the literal personification of language.
So how exactly did 100!Nico beat Language... Was he a polyglot? Did he skimmed through every single dictionary there was before battling? Was he smart enough to choose something other than French?
I audibly gasped and yelled "WAR?? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" because seriously. What is he doing here and how did he even get here.
I'll admit to being unknowledgeable and not understand what Top means by Moga. Google only said a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with planes nor war. If anyone knows what he means, go ahead and tell me.
I like how the planes have animal heads.
I'm assuming she means Mandarin here because it's the standardised language. Even though there are other Chinese languages like Hokkien or Cantonese. I can't blame Mr. Evelyn here because the raw is most likely to be "中国語" which literally translates to "Chinese".
I like the callback again. Logic and self-imposed rules are what ultimately stops negators from fulfilling their potential. Victor ends up falling behind Andy in terms of strength because he somehow convinced himself souls do not exist. So here, even though Ichico is well versed in souls, she is still a woman of science. She can't back away from logic that easily.
I had to search it up but wow, you're telling me this is supposed to be a sea creature of some kind... They're both equally confused, they 100% deserve each other.
Whoa whoa whoa... Nico can't see or hear souls. Yet he somehow manages to hear Ichico's pain? Does he have a wifey sense of some kind?? Loser.
I like how she talks to him like usual. She's either somewhat stupid or just forgot he can't hear her. But she's right in the end and he can indeed hear her.
Aw man that means summoning a living creature and having it die causes damage compared to summoning objects. Probably because it requires active imagination rather than pulling it from real life memories. That means that Nico needs to battle with a MacGuffin that isn't under Lan's domain.
But then that also means the way to beat Lan is by summoning an imaginative creature that can kill Lan's own imaginative creature, the dragon in this case. But what defeats a dragon?
Nico can't see her yet... He is stressed out to the max here and hoping that she is fine.
NEW SOUL ABILITY UNLOCKED?? TELEPATHY??? Or... An ability manifestation?
They weren't kidding about Ichico being a threat due to her quick adaptation with soul abilities.
Ooh she had this set up from the beginning... She chose umibuzou and didn't bother imagining a decent creature because she just wants a "u". Her reliance on English really convinces my British-born Japanese HC of her lol.
Lol Sean probably woke up and went "something's wrong. I can feel it." and Gina just snacks him back to sleep.
FENG??? rip to tells fans but FENG???
Should've seen this coming when I re-read the early 101 arc and I noticed that Feng understood Fuuko even after she took off her necktie translator (her armband). After living for so long, he could definitely picked up an extra language or two.
It's around 1:30-2:00am in Brazil. So probably around 6:00am in the UK. So around 1:00pm in China or Hong Kong if that's where he resides. This man was enjoying an afternoon nap when he got teleported with his hair messed up and tits fully out.
#undead unluck#undead unluck spoilers#later than usual because i fell asleep lol#but it's the thought that counts#meow reads

Hey! Might be a bit of a random one but as a non-binary (but basically male presenting) person married to a Japanese woman we've decided to both wear womens' iro-Uchikake and Shiromuku for our wedding photos. Already did the try-on and initial counseling. I'm not super interested in "passing" as I just wanna look like me — but wondered if you'd seen any womens' wasou-appropriate gender neutral wedding hairstyles in your travels? It's such a specific thing and I'm not having much luck.
Hi and congrats for your soon-to-come wedding pics :)
Tbh, you are not going to have much luck finding any formal wear kimono "neutral" hairstyle. The thing being that traditionally, Japanese hairstyles were SUPER gendered: they could tell age, sex, marital status, sometimes even where you'd come from etc.
The only exception I can think of are children hairstyles, which for long were basically unisex until coming of age ceremonies - but those would not be suitable for a wedding imo ^^;
Agender hairstyle is so definitely not a thing if you're searching for "classical kimono look" appropriate hairdo. Yet, that does not mean you cannot choose any style you like and run away with it!
Most wedding-looks now have brides in modern (=Westernized) fancy hairdo. If you see a "traditional" style (=taka shimada), it will 9 times out of 10 be a wig provided by the kimono rental. Very few undergo the tedious process of having their natural hair styled this way (and less and less hairstylists actually know how to do that):
youtube
So, what fancy style would YOU love?
Without knowing you or your hair lenght it's difficult for me to help, but my first thought was a variation of moga's 耳隠しmimikakushi (hairdo covering the ears, often with finger waves). As moga's chose not to follow traditions + as mimikakushi can work on long and shorter hair alike, this "historical" style could work for you?
Also, you might wanna look into any modern kimono stylist/photographer. For example, see Stasia Matsumoto's social accounts, as she's both a kimono and hair stylist.
Congrats again, and TLDR => don't fret too much over "traditional hairstyle": in nowadays bridal kimono world, that doesn't mean much anyway ;)

Why do you think Daniil is associated with a snake? Like obviously the snakeskin coat but like snakes are often associated with being cunning and manipulative but Daniil is neither of those. It could just be how the town people view him but while they don't like Daniil I don't think they describe him like that either?
hey, sorry this has taken so long with not much of an answer, i've been really busy in my personal life recently!
if i remember correctly (from the few in-game days of classic i've played plus screenshots in fandom etc) he does get that comparison in-game as well? he definitely does from the kin in the marble nest - they call him moga, a snake-man.
i think it's partially the coat and partially just that the townsfolk are inherently distrustful of outsiders, likely especially big-city renowned academics like the bachelor. and i agree that he's not particularly either of those things, he wears his heart on his sleeve really, i do hope they keep him a shitty liar in pathologic 3

«Rita of Gokkan» Ch.19
eng translation by me
ch: [tag] [2-3] [4-6] [7-9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
timeline: ep5 (Toufu ch1)
Rita and Kaguragi test each other on what the other knows.
contains TV SPOILERS past ep5, assumed reader is up-to-date at ep43
*If you are a newcomer and wanted to read the manga along with its corresponding episode, you will only get context for what's hinted in this chapter much later in the show.
t/n:
p4: This bugnarok is pronounced "by-EH-jim" not "bae-jim" ... based on a fly (ha-EH)
Kaguragi addresses everyone as "-dono" but sometimes Rita as "Sovereign Rita". I'm putting Rita-sama and Rita-dono both as "Justice Rita". Normally I'd be inclined to keep the honorifics but since I already used the English form before I should stick to that and subs group conventions. ("-tono/-dono" is an antiqudated suffix that is only used in official documents nowadays. In history, it meant respect for those above you but nowadays it's used by the higher-rank to address those lower politely. Genderless, lower than '-sama'.)
Something about Rita's speech pattern is they tend to use a lot of kanji, as part of their solemn personality and regular legal jargon. I lack the context to evaluate how advanced Rita's kanji are to the average Japanese but the general sense of Rita having a more archaic/complex vocabulary is evident.
holding my urge not to put a ! in every Kagu speech bubble
p14: Kagu's reation to hearing Rita saw Suzume's figure: ……はて? -> long pause, [lit. 1. well; let me see; now (used before sentences expressing a doubt) 2. dear me/good gracious]
ch19:
t/n part 2:
p9: わざわざお出まし恐縮(きょうしゅく)です [lit. my apologies for making you come all this way.] -> What an honour to have your persence!
Here it is! the east/west cultural difference! Keigo is a big challenge for me as a learner already, let alone a translator. There's no direct dictionary substitution and it really depends on your intuition with usage in either langugaes. The keigo here is humble-type, while to make it sound natural in English, instead of reflecting your own incompetence, you are flattering the other party. In the next line, Kaguragi says because Rita came unannounced, they were inadequate in failing to preapre a welcoming committee. I think the scarcasm is there in English too, but I just feel it's more insulting to imply Rita is not exactly welcome while initiatively taking the "weaker" side (Kaguragi's gaslighting, what's new).
p13: learner's note: the royal kitchen is called 厨房(chuubou) while the word for kitchen I knew was 台所(daidokoro). Research shows 厨房 is a professional kitchen like in a restaurant and 台所 is the one at home. Katakana Kitchen is also in the vocabulary to mean a modern, western-style industrical kitchen. Chinese has lost the distinctioin and uses 廚房 (note!: an extra dot above 厨) for both home or workplace.
p16: I interpret Rita's first concern is in maintaining equality between the kingdoms. A duo alliance between ❤🖤 is only detrimental to a five-kingdom one they are working towards: small circle, and increased hostility from 💛💙 if they believe ❤🖤💜 is their small clique. Yet it is interesting Rita raised the question out of personal curiosity. Remember in the beginning there was this, feeling, ❤🖤💜 are seniors and they've known each other for longer? Now we know Kaguragi is actually Rita's junior in terms of order of sucession. Now they could've what he was like prior to taking the throne. Notice how they never describe him as a liar. Maybe Rita does find it odd a man of his capability feels the need to bootlick Racules.
