#this is so sad though synthia lost liao and then her husband mysteriously “dies”

[self-ships-ahoy]

Sorta really ecstatic about this design choice for Aurora, because I had planned the EXACT same thing for my s/i, Synthia. Normally I'd be really upset about my idea being copied, but this time it shows my idea was plot-consistent! I wrote that Synthia gains a special faceplate, purely for cosmetic reasons, based on a theater mask she saw, and that Dr. Liao gave it to her. And now I can imagine that exchange when she requests that and Liao's like 🥺 remembering her older creation. I think the two would develop a really close bond.

No really I had the design as a WIP this whole time see:

I had the exact same idea and I can truly honestly not believe it.
