Shí Will Bea Trueman as a Cephalophore [i.e. a beheaded Catholic saint carrying their own head].

Fun fact, not only is martyrdom [i.e. giving your life for what you believe in] the highest possible honor, but in Catholic theology, martyrdom serves the purpose on Earth as Purgatory does after death. The purification of all venial sins, and so martyrs go straight to Paradise as there's nothing to purify before getting there.

Various title translations in the back.

WIP.

I'm contemplating a book cover, tbph.

Happy Chinese New Year from Kitty Katswell! Last year, I drew Jenny wearing a red cheongsam for the year of the rabbit (Click here to view). To celebrate the year of the dragon, I drew Kitty in a red cheongsam, only, unlike Jenny's outfit, Kitty's sleeves are short, and the bottom of her dress doesn't go down to her feet.

Showing Another Cultures Attire (From Mandarin Chinese)

Something to know about me I love Eastern Culture here is me wearing my Qipao, this outfit is a favorite I love honoring the Long History and Evolution (This form of Qipao isnt the first iteration at all its actually quite Modern) but it also helps me keep proper posture let's just say it looks sloppy if your slouched.

But I have recently found out in my state of Michigan I may be able to get a Bachelor Degree in a Field for free through the University of Michigan Go Blue Guarantee program for Michigan Residents. I hope to possibly get to go to college for a degree in this area of Historical Research/Archeology.

Fun Fact this is why I love Ninjago not many shows embrace the many cultures of the Asian Continent. It's subtle but they have shown a bunch.

(By the Way I am American but my Heritage is Ashkenazi Jewish from Ukraine, German British and Prussian my families infamous ancestors include The Putnams we were a seperate branch that went to Virgina while they tore up Salem Mass, and the Famous/Infamous person known as President Ulysses Grant he's a first cousin)

whats an áo dài? whats the difference between áo dài and qipao??

uhh based on what i know!

🇻🇳 áo dài: vietnamese ensemble consisting of tunic+pants 👚👖 (sometimes skirts in modern styles!)

🇨🇳 qipao/cheongsam: chinese style one piece dress (🚫👖 NO pants/skirt worn underneath!)

áo dài have open slits on the right/left sides that start high at the waist! ⬆️

if a qipao has open slit(s), they are lower than the waist! ⬇️ i've seen many that have a single slit that goes with the asymmetrical design that starts at the collar!

áo means shirt/clothes and dài means long but i've been seeing shorter áo dài! sometimes worn with skirts instead of the flowy pants!

i've seen modern qipao that are very figure fitting, some that are a-line, long ones, short ones- imo its very defined by its neckline!

i often see qipao edged with piping at the collar but its cool to see on áo dài! big fan!

see how on this qipao there are also open slits on the right/left sides but they start a bit below the hips and not at the waist??

?? they look the same? wait! the blue has pants! and its open slits are at the waist! the red has no pants! ohh!

versions and styles vary for different genders and ages and occasions but its all still called áo dài!

qipao is feminine and changshan is masculine i guess!

i like wearing áo dài but i have some qipao too! my parents are both vietnamese but my dad is maybe apparently a quarter chinese? we don't keep track of these things very good!

thats it! bye! 👋

It is way more better than my first public MDmesh CC.

One Dress a Day Challenge

Black and White October

Miss S / Ma Yili as Su Wenli

I love the unusual neckline on this dress! The sheer material in the yoke really sets off the lace around the edge of the neckline and makes it look almost like she's wearing a choker that is tied to the main part of the dress by the fastening. The material used for the body of the dress looks rather homespun, with plenty of texture, which contrasts interestingly with the lacy trim. Her shoes are very pretty too.

DAMN Polycule x Chinese!Freelancer CNY HCs

It's Lunar New Year tomorrow, so here's some quick HCs for a bit of festive cheer and to spread some cultural fun facts!! I love CNY so much and I'm so lucky I have people to celebrate it with!

When FL got the boys red packets, they were all confused and ecstatic (Red packets contain usually a lot of cash and they certainly did not expect to receive this much money from the FL)

FL has a QiPao, or a CheongSam, a Chinese form-fitting piece of clothing that originated from the liberation of women's rights in a new dynasty

they swooned as soon as they stepped out of the closet

high collar, intricate embroidery, thigh-high slit, braided buttons with red and gold thread to symbolize prosperity and good luck!

^QiPao dresses, suits, and jacket!

FL had explained to them beforehand some of the meanings of Chinese clothing and colour choice, and since they had an understanding of it and were encouraged by the FL (not at risk of cultural appropriation)

they all got to try on the traditional clothing of their choice!!!!

Damien loved the suits

Hux and Lasko were wowed by the silk embroidery

Gavin likes the braided buttons

they'd look pretty dapper in them if i'd say so myself

Cultural Foods and Dinner!

Then FL spent the entire day preparing for New Year's dinner!

every new year there has GOT to be a huge get-together with family/friends, and a day to eat very expensive food that all have meanings behind them

First off there was Fat-Choy, which was a seaweed type of thing (looks like a clump of hair but tastes AMAZING) and it means successes in business/finance

Second was Ho-See, dried oyster! (not a fan of it since i don't like oysters) but it means good fortune!

Fish was used to symbolize abundances of good things (money, happiness, fertility, good luck)

Mandarin oranges were used to symbolize good fortune as well!

Peaches were used to symbolize romance and prosperity!

while plums stood for strength, devotion, and determination.

Radish Cakes symbolized luck and fortune!

PoonChoi (or PenCai) was a large porcelain basin filled to the brim with lots of ingredients (usually expensive/rarely seen foods such as abalone, dried scallops, shrimp/prawn, specialty soy-sauce chicken, Fat-Choy, pig hock, and fish) of a Cantonese cultural dish. It is supposed to bring family together to share since it is a communal dish, as are a lot of Chinese dishes.

not a single person was left hungry, there was SO MUCH to eat

that was just the pain courses and appetizers we haven't even gotten to snacks and desserts

(snacks) Sunflower and lotus seeds for fertility, lotus for connections and threads, various types of deep fried biscuits for happiness and smiles!

(desserts) Rice cake for luck and fortune, almond soup for a dash of sweetness!

there was so much made, they had to give some away to neighbours and they even left some for the homeless <3

FL taught them some New Year's wishes to say to each other (mandarin PinYin used instead of Cantonese for ease)

commonly, "Gong Xi Fa Cai" - congrats on your financial success!

"Shen Ti Jian Kang" - wishing you good health!

"Long Ma Jing Chen" - wishing you a clear mind and good health!

"Gong Zuo Shen Li" - Good luck to your business/work!

"Xue Ye Jin Bu" - Good luck on your studies!

"Chu Ru Ping An" - may peace and safety follow you wherever you go

The Freelancer even showed them how to write couplets to they could stick them to the doors

they had to wear aprons at risk of splashing ink onto their clothes

it was very messy but they got the hang of handling the calligraphy brushes and produced some beautiful couplets

(above) from right to left: peace to all four seasons; LUCK; (2nd to left couplet from top to bottom literal translation: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter four seasons peaceful) peace and serenity in all four seasons; (furthest left couplet from top to bottom literal translation: east, south, west, north million things prosper) luck and prosperity in all four bearings

(below) from right to left: peace and success; great success in ten thousand things; may smiles and laughter fill your lives; peace in all four seasons

Decorations! Firecrackers and Lanterns

Freelancer showed them hw to make fake firecrackers to hang by the front door

they look like this! Unfortunately real ones are banned due to their dangerous nature, but the faux ones are just as pretty to look at. the real ones make one heck of a noise - they were meant to scare away demons and monsters in the new year!

They also got a few lanterns to hang up (these are beautiful) !

Red for good luck, and a lucky charm to keep away monsters.

Caelum joined in the fun and made his own little lantern to keep :D

Freelancer wrapped red and gold ribbon around his horns

Later that night, Freelancer gave everyone a surprise gift

new red silk boxers and pyjamas

red represents wealth, good luck, prosperity, fertility, and many other things (red is the "happy" colour in Chinese culture, that's why!)

and Freelancer told them all to wear them before going to bed that night so they could enter a new year as a new person

Gavin was deeply amused, so was Damien

Huxley did not catch their drift until Damien lifted Freelancer off the couch and headed off

Lasko was flustering

they did not sleep that night despite their exhaustion from preparing for this big event all week

Happy Lunar New Year to all who celebrate! May the year of the Tiger bring you peace, luck, strength and determination <3
