I'm a little puzzled by a few takes I've seen along the lines of, Lila was such a great wife and mother and Diego took her for granted! Because I don't think the show gave us that at all, and I think it relied heavily and lazily on societal norms to get the audience to make that leap. It also ignored previous characterisation, which is why I plan to disregard the season as a whole - because if the characters had been like this from the start, I wouldn't have fallen in love with them.

So, what I mean is: the whole time we see her as a parent, Lila is basically phoning it in. She seems to view her kids as one monolithic, sticky entity sent purely to ruin her day (distinct shades of the Handler there). They're just a list of chores - diapers, dentist, ballet, cake, piñata... And I'm not underestimating how much parenting really is a list of chores to be done - but that's all we see, no love, no fun. She's eager to get away from them, and she's only - finally - desperate to be with them when it's convenient for the plot, at which point we're supposed to buy the idea that her kids are her sole focus (not the relationship that they spent the past two seasons building up). And even then, the focus is not on the reunion with the kids, it's on all the awkwardness of the surprise love triangle. Hell, one of the kids doesn't even get a name.

Their intent might have been to have Lila be the better parent, but like much of this season, it's all tell and no show. We're working off a couple of brief conversations from the points of view of two frustrated, tired, biased individuals who are already at odds with one another, plus the evidence of what they actually do. They show that they’re not communicating well, but they don’t show how that happened, how long this has been growing, if one of them really is more at fault. All we know is that he complains a lot, and she’s sneaking out at night to play secret agent. They tell us that she loves her children (eventually, after seven years apart), but they show her being annoyed and/or bored in every normal, non-apocalyptic interaction. They have her (and Five) tell us that Diego is a bad husband, but they show Lila sniping at his weight, his way of running a birthday party, rolling her eyes at his efforts to impress her and regain her attention - and they show him dadding at everyone (he will turn this van around, so help him), the comfortable love and affection between him and his kids, the Punjabi he learned to speak fluently to his in-laws, him looking for ways to fix his marriage...

Take the bracelet thing, for example. "You hate bracelets," says Diego. "I gave you one for Valentines and you traded it for a Dyson vacuum." I think what we're supposed to take from that is a) Lila stopped wearing the wooden bracelet (uh oh, signs the honeymoon period has worn off!), b) Diego gives thoughtless, stereotypical gifts, and c) he doesn't understand what she really wants.

But an alternative reading is this: a) Lila stopped wearing the wooden bracelet (could not be a clearer or more loaded 'fuck you' to Diego), b) Diego tried to find another way to win her affection (on his pay as a delivery driver, with a wife and three kids to support, he managed to buy a bracelet that was expensive enough to trade for a Dyson?), and c) she rejected that gift as well, without any deeper explanation than 'I hate bracelets'. She's shut down all communication between them and is not telling him what's wrong. She has shut him out so comprehensively that she's got a whole undercover life - for which she apparently has the time and energy! - and yet we're supposed to think that oh it's all on Diego. Why? Lila is not a shy and retiring flower, and she and Diego have been shown before to have some very sincere heart-to-hearts about their relationship. Something changed, okay, fine - but why would we assume it was Diego that caused that?

I think our expectations about What Women Are Like are doing a LOT of the heavy lifting in how the show wants Lila to be perceived. She's a woman, and therefore she's automatically a good wife and mother - that she's emotionally intelligent, the organiser, she'll love her children and would do anything for them, she'll tried the hardest to make her marriage work, just...because boobies, I guess. This is not how you write good parents, or good female characters, TUA! A truly astonishing amount of people actually ARE women, and they know that it doesn't automatically confer any kind of maternal or wifely abilities! These things have to be worked on!

(In real life, women are often socialised to be better at these things, this is sadly true. But an awful lot of us do not have an innate talent for it, and there's no shame in that. And, more relevantly to this post, this is not real life, and Lila is not your average person. She's not normal, and I love that about her. She was raised to be a weapon. Do we really think the Handler installed the 'homemaker' module? Lila herself said that she was scared that she wouldn't know how to be a mother, because she had no good example to base it on.)

I also think the show assumes that, when you get married and have kids, you're automatically granted a house in the suburbs, a bunch of in-laws, and enough money from just the husband's job to get by. And I think that is an incredibly privileged and blinkered assumption. Frankly, unless her parents are financing them, they should be struggling a lot more. None of that is explained, and for me it was a real gap, because these are the arguments that Lila and Diego should be having. Lila caring for the kids versus getting a job. Living with family versus striking out on their own. Diego sticking at a job that makes him miserable and difficult to live with, or taking the huge financial risk of trying to find something better. These are the real life issues they should be facing.

Listen, I think the characterisation of Lila as a parent and spouse in this season is horseshit. I think she would be so much better than they showed - of course she's going to have some low times, she's going to struggle with her own upbringing, but I think she would try her damndest to get it right, and I don't think she'd be defeated so easily. But if we're dealing with what canon actually shows us, she's, uh, kind of mediocre as a mother, and really not that great as a partner.

And yes, I'm sure Diego is no angel, either, he's obviously wrapped up in his problems, and he's probably not much fun to be around when he's fixating on, uh, *checks notes* wanting a more fulfilling job (the fiend). But honestly, he's not that far removed from the Diego we've seen all along, the one she fell in love with. It takes one conversation for him to realise how incredibly fortunate he is, and to convince him to try to work harder on his relationship and stop focusing on the unobtainable. The idea that he's the only one who is failing at this whole gig - the chief culprit in the failure of their marriage, the only one who needs to make an effort to fix things - is bizarre. And it's pretty obvious why they've done it: to justify her thing with Five later and make it all seem more palatable. But there's no real substance behind it.

tl;dr: this season was badly-written, takes some incredibly antiquated attitudes towards the role of women that are inconsistent with the characters they themselves established, and some incredibly classist attitudes towards manual labour, and just hopes that you'll either take it at face value or read the fuck into it, to better sell you a shitty romance that added nothing to the plot.

Kai general and Romantic headcanons

A/N:sorry if I got any of the characters wrong, I was using a combo of wiki/Google translate as I don't speak any of the languages mentioned. Pls let me know if I got any info wrong, i will gladly go in and change it to make it right.

General:

Half Indian and half Chinese.

His and nya's last name is 鄭 (Zheng), but he says it's Smith bc when they where younger he got in the habit of lying about his name so he Didnt have to deal with CPS.

His ma is from Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, and was a practicing Hindu. Ray is from the 云南 (yunnan) province, and was a practicing theravida Buddhist. Ray is ethnically from the 傣族 (dai people, also spelt Tai in english)

Before his parents dissapearances, they both brought him to their hometowns, and actively taught him both cultures and religions, which he continued to learn about and even teach Nya about after their dissapearances.

When he was 14 he bought a small boat and him and Nya rode it across the costal line, and he promised Nya one day when he was older he'd bring the both of them to their parents hometowns.

He's a Buddhist.

He speaks so many languages.

Like so many

He's fluent in Thai, mandarin and cantonese chinese, telugu, urdu, hindi, Punjabi, arabic and ninjago-ian(idk whatever language ninjago speaks)

Also trying to learn Indonesian.

He also knows yunnan dialect bc his dad would speak in it more often than not

Absorbes info like a sponge

He likes to quilt

He always wears a golden bracelet He got from his moms jewelry box after she left.

Likes to draw but is bad at it, so he colors coloring books

Introvert

He may act all confident, but he really isn't. super insecure

Soooo good with hair

Like, has all the stops. 10 step hair care routine

rivals Zanes cooking skills.

When working out focuses on building rather than lean muscle.

Mother friend

has dragged all of his friends into the water splashing festival.

Fatal flaw is loyalty and kind of hubris (it's conflicting, ik with the insecure and extreme pride, but like- it makes sense in my head. Inferiority/maybe superiority complex.)(it makes sense bc this is such me behavior. Imagine hating yourself but thinking ur the baddest bitch alive)

Likes to stare at fire

If he can't sleep he'll make a small bonfire to stare at and think

insomnia

Chronic cigarette smoker

Romantic:

Hes more show than tell

Def acts of service (me frfr)

Although, he is very cuddly.

Not in public, though. Maybe infront of the other ninja if it was a rough day

Loves to rock you gently from side to side when yall are hug

loves to give you temple kisses

He's very gentle with you, treats you like glass

You wil prolly say ily first, and he'll go;"🧍‍♂️...cool?"

He has mommy and daddy issues, but HEAVY on the mommy issues. Have fun with this hyper-independant fuck who can't accept help without feeling like a failure even though they need it (I'm not projecting you are)

Goes all out for holidays and anniversaries.

Doberman/German Shepard vibes tbh

When it's just you two he doesn't feel the need to fill the air with meaningless chatter, so if he feels safe enough to just share air without talking feel honoured and cherish it bc that means he actually trusts you.

A little rough around the edges, but will remember that thing you said 5years ago on ur first date

Most dates are chill inside and take a nap

But sometimes if he can he takes you on the town or someplace fancy

Also likes to show you his favorite childhood spots

[capinejghafa]

the only way for this to have made any sense, if you will... is if Diego didn't do anything during s2 or s3. Like nothing! Like forget taking care of Stan for a minute or forgiving her. His belief in Lila, in his future fam, in their love, came with the promise when he gave her back the bracelet! Not to mention Lila, she grab his hand and walked away with him because she also believed in that promise. And I know promises can be broken! But tua spent actual years developing this ship... like the foundation and how it would work.

Diego also learned Punjabi for her and his in laws, he got a job he hated for her family... I hate to take side because that's not what this is but Lila also gave up. You want to pin this all on Diego it's whatever, but Lila was sneaking around for who knows how long... because she was sneaking around. Maybe she wasn't cheating in physical sense, but she was cheating in an emotional sense. I love Lila (one of my cat's is named after her!) but let us not pretend that she didn't also fail their marriage almost to a worse degree... she was emotionally distant.

Also, Lila and the other person being a better fit would have worked but it was developed so poorly (and the age gap in both canon and irl is so gross don't over think it) that by the time we got to the episode it was just a throw away plot.

In doing all this... he also destroyed whole Five was in the process...

So none of this makes sense, you fucking hack.

Umbrella academy S4

Spoilers‼️

Diego hargreevs has been my favourite character for the past 5 years so I HAVE to get this off my chest.

Ways that season 4 fucked up diego:

1. THE WHOLE LILA FIVE STORYLINE (that’s also a much muchh longer rant for another time)

2. Diego has always had such a strong (if not slightly weird) moral compass, backed by his need to be the hero. Season 1 diego was working with the police, season 2 diego spent the entire season trying to protect the president. Season 3 diego put everything into being a good dad to a kid randomly dropped in his lap. We saw NONE of that in season 4. Instead we he was the butt of every joke and seemed to suck at everything he tried to do.

2. The fat jokes,, it just didn’t make sense, it was sweet that he put on happy relationship weight, but the digs (including from his wife!!) did not sit well with me. ESPECIALLY when he looked the same and was ripped af in that CIA shirtless fight scene.

3. The lack of diego and klaus scenes.. they have been my favourite brother duo since the start,, I can’t believe we didn’t get even a single moment :(

4. We barely got to see Dad!Diego!!! After the way he was with stan, after what reggie said to him at the wedding,,,, I thought season 4 would show more of their home and him being a dad,,, we don’t even know the names of the TWINS

5. Diego not speaking spanish with his kids!!! We saw it season 3 how he wanted stan to know spanish,,, we should have gotten something here (Bonus points for the punjabi tho, as a punjabi myself that made me so happy)

6 Lila wearing the five bracelet//not liking bracelets,,, was a big token of their love NOT the bracelet diego made in the asylum???

7. Absolutely no resolution for the five lila story line. He never forgave five (five didn’t even seem sorry). I died (or stopped existing) hating one of his brothers, that makes me so sad (even though it was justified on his part)

8. His story having nothing to do with the main plotline!! And this is an issue I have with all the characters (klaus, the five lila thing, the whole luther and diego cia plot line) not only that, but his (and also klaus’) powers not being fully explored and used (this is something that bothers me every season).

There’s more but I’m too exhausted and disappointed. Feel free to add your own points.

[sunriize]

riize as punjabi songs!

warnings! some of the lyrics are mashed together like for sohee and kangna it kept talking about the bracelet (punjabi word for bracelet is kangna) so i had to fix it so it didnt seem out of place!

(creds to all the creators who made the gifs)

shotaro as …

forever by tegi pannu!

“i love to welcome you with open arms and a warm heart. my doors are always open for you! we’re meant to be together! without you, this life would be a punishment”

eunseok as …

mi amor by sharn

“oh my, tell me honestly my love, how can i break your tantrums? you made me into a lover, what more do you want from me? your mischief and laughter, dear, it drives me crazy”

sungchan as …

ni nachleh by imran khan!

“beautiful girl tell me one thing, why are you shy when I am in front of you? leave all your worries and sadness, become my sweetheart, forget everything and dance with me”

wonbin as …

with you by ap dhillon!

“It was my first love, and this is my first love tale I couldn’t alter it even if I wanted to. I saw myself as your king, so why didn’t you become my queen?”

seunghan as …

dilawara by the prophec!

“my heart doesn't understand what's happening, it cant be tamed by anyone. my wandering heart is scared to let you in, its afraid of losing you someday”

sohee as …

kangna by dr zeus!

“you have seven diamonds on your wrist, and it asks for every lovers heart, but i’m hoping you will come to me soon, as i can’t live without you anymore”

anton as …

wo noor by ap dhillon!

“your beauty is as pure as gold, and has destroyed me. the glow on your face illuminated in my eyes, and my eyes brightened when i noticed the light from your face”

a/n : this was such a random thought, it happened when i was listening to ni nachleh by imran khan and had a thought about how lit an edit of sungchan would be to the song and then it kept happening when dilawara came on and i thought of seunghan, then i just made my mind up and created this thread.

yk while making it i didnt realise how depressing half of these songs are 😭 like i understand punjabi ofc but in songs it just goes in one ear out the other and the vibe is so cutsey like with you i thought it was about a guy treating his girl right wdYM its unrequited love :(( i wont force you guys to listen to the songs listed but pls do give it a try! they’re all quite enjoyable and certainly some of my favourites! i might be doing this w bollywood songs as well so stay tuned <3

Harvey Gives Fashion Advice

< Previous Part | Next Part >

Harvey still had time before his next class, so he headed straight for his dorm. Harry's bed was topped with cardboard boxes, and Harry himself was rummaging through his wardrobe. He would evaluate individual items before deeming they were no good and tossing them behind him. "Dude, I've been gone for a few hours, are you still trying to find something to wear?" Harvey asked his room mate.

"Oh, Honey, I already picked out a casual outfit for the day" Harry replied without taking his eyes off his clothes. "That's what I wore to pick up all those boxes."

"By the way, what is all this stuff?" Harvey sat on Harry's bed and peeked inside the boxes. It was a mix of decorations, papers, and small items that looked like they could be used for games.

"Those are the supplies for tomorrow's Queer Student Union meeting. As secretary it was my job to pick them up from storage."

"So why are you changing again?"

"And repeat an outfit on the same day? Hell no. There's an executive meeting with all the Queer Student Union's leaders tonight, so I need to look my best."

"Sheesh, I'm glad I'm not a member of your gay club" Harvey sighed, "If I spent as much time on clothes as you did, I'd never get out of this dorm."

"Oh shut up" Harry said, tossing a shirt he was looking at onto his bed, "I bet I spend less time on clothes than you do styling that ridiculous pompadour" Harry ran his fingers through his own curly hair, then turned around to face his room mate, finally seeing that Harvey was wearing a patka, "Or at least, how much time you usually spend on it. That thing on your head is new. Is it some kind of fashion statement?"

"Huh?" Harvey placed his hands on top of his head, feeling cloth where he expected to feel gelled hair. "I thought I took this thing of last night. Did I tie it back on this morning?"

"What are you mumbling about?" Harry turned back to his wardrobe, "instead of making fashion statements like that, I wish you were a fashion guru. I could use some advice." Harry grabbed a pink scarf and wrapped it around his neck. He considered it for a moment before tossing it towards the bed like all the rest. This time, it landed on Harvey's head.

The scarf wrapped itself around Harvey's patka, forming a pink UK-style turban. "Wait… this is just like with Gurpreet's table cloth. Was- was that real? It is happening again!?" While Harvey was expressing a great deal of panic, the texture of his face became smoother, and his cheek bones were more pronounced. All of his hair once again darkened to a shade of black. His mustache thickened, covering his upper lip, and his beard grew to his collar in a squared off shape. To maintain this shape it was not cut, but rather well maintained. Harvey winced, expecting to bloat into a fat man like before. Instead, he grew a bit taller and slimmed into a model physique. He got that warm feeling again as his skin turned an Indian hue, a bit darker than Harvey's normal time, but a good amount lighter than previously. His features changed slightly to be more telling of a Punjabi man, but it was unmistakably Harvey's face.

Finally the rest of his clothes were altered. He was wearing a light blue silk button up with grey wool trousers and brown leather shoes. A tricolor, diagonally striped long tie appeared around his collar. A pink scarf, matching his new turban, hung from his neck, and a dark navy suit jacket topped his shoulders. Harvey looked at his arms in disbelief, his wrists were decorated with a gold watch on the left and an iron Kara bracelet on the right. "Am I imagining things again? Why is it so different this time?"

"So Harpinder" Harry started, as if Harvey hadn't said anything just now. He was holding up two shirts, one in each hand, "Which do you think would look better on me tonight?"

"What are you talking about, Harry?" Harvey realized this was just like with Gurpreet. Harvey, or Harpinder as he was now, seemed completely normal to Harry. "You never ask me for advice about clothes."

"I just didn't want to bug you with my day to day stuff" Harry admitted, a bit embarrassed "you're such a famous fashion influencer after all. I'm sure you have more important things to do." Just then Harvey got a notification on his phone, actually he was receiving several. He unlocked it and the phone opened to a photo-sharing social media app. Instead of his usual profile, he was logged into @sikhstyleguru under the name Harpinder Singh. The page looked like it was regularly updated with photos of Harvey as he appeared now, wearing a variety of fashionable suits and street wear. Scrolling down, Harvey figured this page had to have been active for a few years, which should have been impossible because he only transformed a few weeks ago. Was reality changing? Is that why no one thought his sudden changes were odd? Either way, Harvey took this as proof that he wasn't imagining things, he really had become a Sikh man.

He tapped on his most recent photo, the one he was getting notifications for. The like count was already well above three thousand and still ticking up. Comments included phrases like "waheguru" followed by praying hands emoji and "Att" with the fire emoji. "I really am a fashion influencer" Harvey said to himself.

"That's why I'm asking you, you know better than anyone" Harry said. Harvey was confident he'd be able to return to normal, as he had before. For now he decided he would play along with Harry's vision of him, as it would be useless to try and convince Harry that he was someone else. Still, Harvey's idea of a good outfit was a white tee and black jeans, hardly the wisdom that Harry was expecting. He decided he should just answer truthfully. "Honestly, Harry, I don't think either of those shirts would work." Harpinder stroked his hairy chin while thinking, "If you're going to meet with other leaders of your organization, you yourself should look like a leader. I think I can lend you something." He turned to his own wardrobe and saw that it was replaced by a pop-up closet. Due to the dorm's restricted space, it was smaller than any proper closet would be, but it still had enough rack space to hold Harprinder's many suits, with drawers at the bottom for the rest of his clothes. He picked out a deep blue dress shirt, a vibrant yellow dress tie, brown slacks, and matching black leather belt and dress shoes. Harry quickly changed and the items fit surprisingly well on him, despite belonging to someone else.

"This is awesome, I've never had a suit I liked this much" Harry was checking himself out from a few different angles.

"It's all about finding the right fit. Now you look ready for business" Harprinder grinned. Harry threw his arms up and gave Harpinder a big hug. He chuckled and hugged back, "Easy there, try not to wrinkle my shirt too much." Harpinder impressed even himself with his wisdom. Maybe this fashion influencer thing wouldn't be too hard. Once Harry had let go, apologizing for any wrinkles he might have caused, Harpinder turned back to his closet and considered his next move. He thought Harry's outfit could use a little something more to truly stand out. He grabbed two cloths from his closet. "Hold still Harry, I just need to add one last touch." Harpinder first tied the blue cloth around Harry's head into a patka. Harry did as he was told and didn't stop Harpinder, but he was still visibly uncomfortable.

"You know, Harp, these turbans look really good on you. I'm just think this is weird on a white guy like me."

"Nonsense, you just need to see it all together" Harpinder tied the yellow cloth into a morni pagg turban. Then he used a salai needle to smooth out the folds. "See? Isn't that better?"

Harry looked at himself in their dorm's mirror, turning his head to check a few different angles. "I guess so…" Harry saw his face turn a darker shade of brown and became delighted. "Yes! This vibrant yellow does go well with my skin tone. That was a good choice, Harpinder" Harry said in a Punjabi accent.

Harpinder nodded, "Now we must do something about your hair."

"But all of my hair is under my dastaar" then a short chinstrap of curly black hair grew on Harry's previously bare face.

"Obviously I meant your facial hair" Harpinder chuckled, using a wooden comb to remove the tangles in Harry's new beard.

"Ah, that is much better" Harry admired his Punjabi features in the mirror.

"I'm glad I could help" with this task complete, the pink turban on Harpinder's head unspooled and returned to being a simple pink scarf. Harpinder himself reverted to being Harvey, and his pop up closet disappeared, leaving behind Harvey's original wardrobe. The only thing that didn't turn back to normal was the now Sikh Harry. "Woah, who are you!?"

"Harvey you are so sweet. Pretending you don't recognize me because I look so much better in this suit? I'm flattered" Harry winked.

Harvey recognized that jokingly flirty attitude, "Harry, is that you?"

"It's pronounced Harri, you know that. Anyways, thank you for helping me pick out an outfit, I'll have to return the favor some time. But for now, I'm off to meet my felllow Queer Student Union leaders" Harri lifted the boxes from his bed and made his way to the door of the dorm.

"You can't leave, there's something wrong!"

"The only thing wrong here is that a cute guy like you is still only wearing a patka. Before the next Sikh Student Alliance meeting I am going to have to tie the most handsome dastar on you. See ya!" And with that, Harri blew a kiss and left the dorm.

"No, Harry, wait!" But it was too late, Harri was gone. "This is so freaky! First I'm changing, now Harry is too! Did I do that to him?" Harvey took a look at himself in the mirror. "It's got to be because of this patka I got from that Indian club. It's making me look like them!" Harvey tried to yank the black cloth from his head, but it wouldn't budge no matter how he pulled. "It's no use, the thing is tied on like some kind of magic." he sighed. "At least I can take care of you" Harvey said, looking at his short brown beard. Harvey went to his "hair care" drawer. He was pretty obsessed with maintaining a perfect pompadour, so he always kept a drawer stocked with hair scissors, razors, tweezers, an electric shaver, Combs, and his favorite gel. Opening the drawer, he discovered that most of these items were gone! In their place was a wooden comb, a salai needle, some kind of beard oil, and multiple patka cloths. "Where's all my stuff!? I thought I changed back" Harvey slammed the drawer, "I am not giving up that easy, you stupid beard"

Harvey grabbed a pair of office scissors from his study desk and went back to the mirror. They weren't the ideal tool for grooming his beard, but they would have to do. He brought the scissors close to his chin and attempted to cut, but the scissors wouldn't close. "Huh?" Harvey pulled the scissors away from his face and heard the satisfying "snip" of the scissors cutting the air, but as soon as they got close to his face, he couldn't bring himself to close his fingers together. "Are you kidding me? I can't cut my beard either!?"

It had become evidant that whatever magic had transformed Harvey twice today was also preventing him from removing his patka and hair, even in his white form. "I need to find a way to get 100% back to normal, and also prevent future transformations." Harvey thought the best way to do that was to write down everything he knew about his predicament. He grabbed his Religious Studies 372 notebook and started a list on a new page. 1. This all started when those people from the Sikh club tied this patka on my head. 2. I can't take the patka off, except to sleep and shower. Even then, I end up tying it back on without noticing. 3. When fabric touches this patka, I turn into one of those turbanned Indian guys. The table cloth and the scarf had very different results. Maybe the type of cloth matters? 4. When I transform, my personality changes a little bit and my memory gets a bit foggy. I should keep this notebook with me so I don't forget who I really am.

Harvey sighed and closed the notebook. He didn't know much yet, but this was a start. "It goes without saying I need to avoid that Sikh club, even if it does cost me a grade" Harvey checked the time on his phone "can't let my other grades slip though, my break's almost over" Harvey packed his things and marched to his next class, believing that he was temporarily safe from Punjabification.

" you're  the  spitting  image  of  your  mother  " —  that's what everyone told you from girlhood . but  having  lost  her  after  celebrating  a  mere  eight  name  days  ,  couldn't  be  certain  they were  telling  the  truth  .  perhaps  they  merely  say  it  out  of  pity  .  what you did know was that you felt  out  of  place  in  your  family  .  each of you was united by your father and the tully name you bore , yes . but your siblings possessed something you didn't — a shared mother , a shared memory . hendry and merianne , amos and your other older sibling . but you had no one ; you were alone in that regard , in spite of any love between you and your siblings . what they had was irrefutably different .

finding a substitute proved unsuccessful . your stepmother wasn't an option , married to your father and bearing a child so soon after your mother's passing ; as if she never even existed . you understood that you could never see your governess or septa that way . extended family , on either side , didn't fit the bill either . no one could compare to the image of lady cira conjured in your mind .

but then you met her , the sun incarnate , and for a little while , you didn't need to search . for a little while , you weren't lonely anymore . ( wc plotting incoming ) .

soon after your betrothed left riverrun under dubious circumstances , something died and festered in your heart . with the aid of someone seasoned at court machinations , you , too , decided to become a player of the game . they do not replace the mother you so desperately yearn for , for guidance . but you knew they could help you , in your quest to destroy laina dayne .

✨ Nabu, Wizard Form ✨

================================================

Next up and second-to-last for the power-up forms, we have Nabu! Took a little bit of a break on these to focus on some other ideas for a while, but I have some time to finally finish this series. It was a little difficult to find some of the exact pieces that I wanted for Nabu here, but I tried my best. I hope you enjoy!

More notes + details about Nabu's wizard form can be found under the 'readmore'!

================================================

. As I headcanon Nabu to be Indian(if he had an Earth-based ethnicity), I wanted his wizard form to have more Indian influences in it. A deep, royal purple Nehru jacket, with gold buttons and swirly gold detailing on the torso. Make the jacket a sleeveless one, with a cream-white silk top underneath. Black Dhoti pants with draping that have red detailing on the hemline. The shoes are a cream-ish gold color in a Punjabi Jutti style.

. For accessories, he has a long, deep red sash around his waist that has gold detailing similar to the other gold detailing of his outfit. He has multiple gold bracelets, one long gold necklace with a detailed charm, and chunky gold hoop earrings.

. His hair is kept in his usual long twin braids, with gold beads and hair-ties keeping it together. His forearm tattoos glow now when he is using his magic. He also has his staff, which helps him conduct and cast his magic.

How to Style Your Chura with Stunning Accessories in the UK

Bridal Chura is one of the most significant elements of an Indian bride’s wedding attire. Rooted in tradition and cultural symbolism, these beautiful red and white bangles signify prosperity, love, and marital bliss. While the Chura itself is a statement piece, styling it with the right bridal accessories enhances its beauty and completes the bridal look.

If you're a bride in the UK, you have access to a diverse range of stunning accessories to complement your Bridal Chura. Whether you're going for a classic, regal, or contemporary look, this guide will help you style your Chura with the perfect bridal accessories for your big day.

1. Understanding the Significance of the Bridal Chura

Before we dive into styling, let’s understand why Bridal Chura holds such importance:

Traditionally worn by Punjabi brides, Chura symbolizes prosperity and is believed to bring good fortune to newlyweds.

Typically made of red and white bangles, modern versions come in various colors and designs to match different bridal looks.

Brides usually wear the Chura for a specific duration after the wedding, ranging from a few days to months.

Since Chura is an essential part of your bridal look, styling it with the right accessories is crucial to achieving a harmonious and elegant appearance.

2. Matching Bridal Jewellery with Your Chura

Pairing the right jewellery with your Bridal Chura is key to enhancing your overall look. Here’s how to make the perfect match:

Gold Jewellery for a Classic Look

If your Bridal Chura has gold detailing, opt for traditional gold jewellery such as:

Kundan or Polki Necklace Sets – These add a regal touch and match the richness of gold-toned Chura.

Gold Jhumkas or Chandbalis – Perfect for balancing the look while adding elegance.

Matha Patti and Maang Tikka – Traditional headpieces that pair well with gold-accented Chura.

Diamond and Pearl Jewellery for a Modern Look

Brides who want a contemporary look can opt for:

Diamond and Pearl Necklaces – A sleek and elegant choice for pastel or ivory-colored Chura.

Minimalist Bracelets – If you’re wearing a heavily embellished Chura, go for subtle diamond or pearl bracelets to avoid an overpowering look.

Gemstone Jewellery for a Unique Touch

For brides who love colorful accessories, gemstone jewellery is a great option:

Ruby and Emerald Necklaces – These go well with green or red Bridal Chura.

Statement Earrings with Gem Accents – Enhance your outfit while keeping it classy.

Nose Rings (Nath) – A beautifully adorned nath with colored stones can complement your Chura.

3. Coordinating Your Bridal Outfit with the Chura

Your outfit plays a huge role in how you style your Chura. Here’s how to ensure a seamless match:

Red Chura with a Red Lehenga: Stick to classic gold jewellery with intricate detailing.

Pastel or Ivory Chura with a Light-Colored Outfit: Opt for pearls, diamonds, or rose gold accessories.

Customized Chura in Contrasting Shades: If your Chura features custom colors, pick jewellery with similar gemstone accents.

4. Adding Haath Phool and Rings

Haath Phool (hand ornaments) and rings are essential bridal accessories that beautifully complement the Chura.

Choose gold or Kundan Haath Phool for a traditional look.

If you prefer a modern approach, opt for delicate diamond or pearl hand chains.

Statement rings with gemstones or intricate designs can add a unique touch.

5. Styling Your Bridal Bangles with Chura

While the Chura itself is eye-catching, additional bangles can enhance its appeal.

Kadas (Thick Gold Bangles) – Traditionally worn on either side of the Chura to add definition.

Glass or Metal Bangles – Mixing in matching bangles with your Chura can create a personalized touch.

Thread or Floral Bangles – Perfect for pre-wedding events like the Mehendi or Haldi ceremony.

6. Enhancing Your Look with a Statement Clutch

A statement clutch can be a stylish and practical accessory for your big day. Choose one that complements your Chura and overall outfit.

Embroidered or Beaded Clutches – Great for a traditional look.

Crystal or Pearl-Encrusted Clutches – Ideal for contemporary brides.

Personalized Clutches – Featuring your initials or wedding date for a unique touch.

7. Footwear to Pair with Your Chura Look

The right footwear will complete your bridal look while ensuring comfort.

Traditional Juttis – Embellished juttis match beautifully with gold or Kundan jewellery.

Embroidered Heels or Sandals – Perfect for modern brides who want a blend of tradition and style.

Comfortable Flats or Kolhapuris – Ideal for post-wedding events while keeping the elegance intact.

8. Hairstyles and Hair Accessories

Your hairstyle and hair accessories should complement both your Bridal Chura and overall look.

Floral Gajras – Traditional brides can enhance their look with floral accents.

Embellished Hairpins or Maang Tikkas – Ideal for a more sophisticated and regal style.

Bridal Headbands or Crowns – Perfect for brides who want to add a modern touch to their ensemble.

9. Choosing the Right Dupatta Draping Style

Your dupatta draping style can either highlight or overshadow your Bridal Chura. Here’s what works best:

Over the Shoulder with Open Hands – Ensures your Chura remains the focal point.

Side Drape with Bangles Exposed – A stylish way to flaunt your bridal bangles.

Double Dupatta with a Sheer Veil – Adds elegance while keeping your Chura visible.

10. Final Styling Tips for a Flawless Look

Balance is Key – Avoid overwhelming your look by keeping some accessories minimal.

Personalization Adds Ch arm – Custom touches like engraved jewellery or monogrammed accessories make your look unique.

Comfort Matters – Make sure your accessories, especially bangles, are comfortable enough to wear throughout the wedding day.

Match with Groom’s Attire – Coordinating accessories with your groom’s outfit creates a harmonious bridal look.

Final Thoughts

Styling your Bridal Chura UK with the right accessories in the UK is all about blending tradition with personal style. Whether you choose a classic, modern, or fusion look, selecting complementary jewellery, bangles, and accessories will elevate your bridal ensemble. Remember to focus on comfort, balance, and personalization to achieve the perfect wedding-day appearance.

A Complete Guide to the Different Types of Bangles

Bangles are timeless accessories that have adorned wrists for centuries, representing cultural heritage, tradition, and personal style. Available in a variety of materials, designs, and styles, bangles can be both traditional and contemporary. This guide explores the different types of bangles, their significance, and how to style them for different occasions.

The Cultural Significance of Bangles

Bangles hold deep cultural and symbolic meanings across the world. In India, they are worn by brides as a sign of prosperity and marital happiness, while in other cultures, they symbolize status, wealth, and spiritual beliefs. Over the years, bangles have evolved beyond tradition and have become fashion statements embraced globally.

Types of Bangles

1. Metal Bangles

Metal bangles, often made of gold, silver, or platinum, are widely cherished for their durability and elegance. Gold bangles are especially significant in Indian culture, symbolizing prosperity and marital bliss. Silver bangles, on the other hand, are known for their health benefits and aesthetic appeal. Platinum bangles, though rare, offer a luxurious and modern touch.

2. Glass Bangles

Glass bangles are vibrant, delicate, and widely worn in South Asia. These bangles come in various colors and are often associated with celebrations and festivals. In Indian weddings, brides wear red and green glass bangles as a symbol of good fortune and happiness. The delicate tinkling sound they make is also considered auspicious.

3. Lac Bangles

Lac bangles are handcrafted from natural resin and are known for their intricate designs and bright colors. These bangles are especially popular in Rajasthan, India, and are often embellished with beads, stones, and mirror work. They are lightweight, making them comfortable to wear for extended periods.

4. Wooden Bangles

Eco-friendly and stylish, wooden bangles offer a unique, rustic appeal. They are commonly hand-painted or carved with intricate patterns and are perfect for casual or bohemian looks. Wooden bangles can also be polished or coated with lacquer for a glossy finish, adding an earthy charm to any outfit.

5. Plastic Bangles

Affordable and available in countless designs, plastic bangles are a popular choice for everyday wear. They come in a variety of colors, patterns, and sizes, making them a fun and versatile accessory. They are especially popular among young girls and are often mixed with other types of bangles to create stylish stacks.

6. Stone-Studded Bangles

These bangles are adorned with precious or semi-precious stones, enhancing their beauty and making them ideal for special occasions. Gemstones like rubies, emeralds, and diamonds add a touch of elegance to any outfit. Stone-studded bangles are often paired with traditional attire for weddings and festive celebrations.

7. Thread Bangles

Thread bangles, wrapped in colorful silk or cotton threads, are lightweight and stylish. They are often handcrafted and can be customized with beads, pearls, and charms to match different outfits. These bangles provide a unique blend of tradition and modernity, making them suitable for both ethnic and casual ensembles.

8. Kada Bangles

Kada bangles are thick, rigid, and usually made of metal. They are a significant part of Sikh and Punjabi culture, often worn by both men and women as a symbol of strength and faith. Some kada bangles are intricately designed with engravings, while others are simple and unadorned, representing spiritual devotion.

9. Cuff Bangles

Unlike traditional bangles, cuff bangles have an open-ended design, making them easy to wear and adjust. They are modern, stylish, and available in a variety of materials like metal, leather, and resin. Cuff bangles are perfect for stacking with other bracelets or wearing as standalone statement pieces.

10. Acrylic Bangles

Acrylic bangles are lightweight and available in vibrant colors and patterns. They are perfect for casual wear and can mimic the look of glass or metal bangles without the fragility or heaviness. These bangles are great for adding a pop of color to any outfit and are particularly trendy among fashion-conscious individuals.

How to Style Bangles for Different Occasions

Bangles can be styled in multiple ways to enhance any outfit. Here are some styling tips:

Traditional Events & Weddings: Opt for gold, stone-studded, or glass bangles paired with ethnic attire like sarees or lehengas for an elegant look.

Casual Outings: Wooden, thread, or acrylic bangles complement casual outfits and give a fun, boho-chic vibe.

Office & Formal Wear: Minimalist metal or cuff bangles add a touch of sophistication to professional attire without being too flashy.

Festivals & Celebrations: Lac or brightly colored bangles can make any festive outfit stand out.

Layering & Mixing: Mix different types of bangles, such as metal with thread or glass with wooden bangles, to create a unique, personalized stack.

Conclusion

Bangles are more than just accessories—they carry deep cultural and personal significance. Whether you prefer the elegance of metal bangles, the vibrancy of glass bangles, or the modern appeal of cuff bangles, there is a style to suit every occasion. Understanding the different types of bangles can help you choose the perfect ones to complement your look and express your individuality. No matter your style, there’s a bangle type that will enhance your beauty and make a statement.
