#that recognizes Aventurine's specifically Turkish influences

[starcurtain]

You know, one thing I haven't seen any Ratiorine fans take advantage of is that Aventurine is very specifically inspired by the Turkish Romani population, while Ratio clearly has Greek/Roman influence--both countries with long and often complicated histories with Turkey.

Everyone craving those sci-fi AUs, but where are my historical AUs at?

Where are all the "We come from rival nations but still found each other!" Romeo and Juliet-level dramas???

Where are all my period pieces with the fall of the Byzantine Empire for background flavor???

Where are all my "I am but a traveling scholar," "You're more like a fish out of water, friend!" strangers-to-lovers riding off into the desert sunset stories???

Come on, help a girl out!

YES!!!!!!! In general I LOVE seeing characters participating in the cultures they are inspired by! But I really want to know more about Avgin tradition. Are there regional differences? Clothes only worn on specific events? CULTURAL FOOD!!!!!!!!! This applies to every fandom that has cultures inspired by earth! Make up silly traditions and methods for making and dying clothes! I will always eat that up!
