#so what then

[c00kieguy]

I'm glad Argenti is chucked into random events that man is everywhere but also, he gets barely any development? if at all.

So while we wait to get more lore on The Beauty and their factions as a whole, may I introduce you to this one memory bubble in Herta space station that has been there since release?

The memory bubble is of a woman talking to the trailblazer, claiming to be an Emanator of Beauty and a Mirror Holder she goes on to allow the TB a peak into the Mirror of Transcendence so they can see The Beauty (the aeon).

What they see is described as a a sculpture breaking in half, one half a woman and the other a man. Both are intertwined from the waist below and look at though they are sculpting each other. However, just as the 'being in the mirror' makes eye contact with TB they look away.

You can go read the actual bubble here, I just summarized it

THAT was Idrila, or at least who they looked like to the trailblazer. I assumed they work similar to Aphrodite in most popular pieces of media in which they take the form of what you perceive true beauty as. And the way the trailblazer views beauty is really interesting.

So, regardless of who you are, when meeting the Aeon of Beauty one is sure to be infatuated with them. I mean, THEY are everything you find beautiful after all, who wouldn't want to protect that? So there's really no shock in seeing how all followers of The Beauty are so loyal (except that one Robin simp in penacony we don't talk about him)

Now I'm curious what exactly Argenti would see as his Ideal of Beauty. Though seeing as his idea of Beauty is very broad I imagine it's something similar to TB. Still, would he see someone he's close with? A family member? Would the Beauty even tie back to his homeland at all? Maybe it's the friend he lost, the fellow Knight he had to kill? Or maybe he sees himself?

trying to continue on with your plans for life with an undiagnosed Something is like. you have a low level fever for days and can’t do anything about it. people tell you you’re too young to feel this way, and most people find the pain goes away with tylenol. you have bottles and bottles of pills but you’re in pain anyway. you use a cane but don’t feel like you deserve to. you can’t afford to go to the doctor, you’re not even sure you can afford rent. you’re trying to make grad school and following the career path you’ve wanted your entire life and living in a city work. you’re not sure if you can keep doing this much without destroying yourself. you go to work. something’s wrong. you go to class. something’s wrong. you go to the grocery store. something’s wrong. you call your mom. something’s wrong. something’s wrong. something’s wrong. and what can you do about it? how can you even begin to ask for help when you don’t know what’s happening?

I also think that all the "um okay knives out & glass onion were good. Wrap it up now" posts are so funny. You're tripping if you think there's not going to be at least five Benoit Blanc films lol

You gotta read and watch some old books and films that aren’t 100% modern politically correct. I’m not saying you should agree with everything in them but you need to learn where genres came from to understand what those genres are doing today and where media deconstructing old tropes is coming from.

Also, more often than you might think, they’re not actually promoting bigotry so much as “didn’t consider all the implications of something” or just used words that were polite then but considered offensive now.

Kill the censor in your head.

it's always "immortals always lose the ones they love!" and never "this family has had this incredible, powerful, loving figure present through generations of their lineage, all because they are descended from someone the immortal loved long ago" and i think that's a shame!!

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
