I can't stop thinking about the Olympic Spirit and the Final Torchbearer from the opening ceremony

I desperately need them to kiss

you dont know a nightmare, 'til you've seen in my dreams

[notbecauseofvictories]

I was sitting in my hostel's common room (journaling and absentmindedly eating dinner) and tripped and fell into a two hour discussion with a British man who happened to be sitting there as well. We discussed international politics and I managed to hold my own---who knew I had this many opinions about the ICJ? Also he kissed my hand afterward, which has to be the most charming thing to happen to me in recent history. Now I'm sweetly cradled in wine bed and listening to a recording of the opera I wanted to see...it's okay, actually. Everything is wonderful.

Where’s Soi? Opening Edition

Honestly when the series first said he was always there I thought I was being gaslit till I looked back and couldn’t unsee him being there. Like that detection warding is no joke.

Opening 1

Opening 2

Opening 3

Answers:

Interestingly he’s almost always consistently behind Gaap, Crocell, and Agares. He’s also usually at the edge and far back to make him easy to miss.
