Some Iris sibs ^^, they're actually Akemi's neice and nephew, that family is a disaster lmaoo

#yeah so Akemi is from some old important clan i havent decided the name of; but its symbol is an iris ensata with an eye in the middle #so thats why these 2 are the iris sibs ^^ #the girl is Hana; shes real chatty and not too good at detatching her emotions from any situation #the boy is Kaoru; hes a lot more composed and uptight abt rules and stuff; but also a big softie with the people he's closest to #so it balances out haha #their clan is basically what's holding together the illusion of normalcy in the world rn; their main power is memory/perception related #but theyre also a little too focused on secrecy and tradition #so thats why akemi left; she was the oldest and expected to be the leader one day but she got fed up and went to space lmao #currently hana is set to be the next heir; shes the youngest of the 2 sibs but Kaoru took after his dad and got a water adjacent power #instead of his mom's space derivative mind one; so hana is the only eligible choice #anyways; in a super rambly mood ahahaha #shut up sheo #my art #my ocs #berryblu arts #i should also mention the 'illusion of normalcy'im refering to #is that these people managed to hide the fact that earth used to be in the high fantasy genre; its now urban fantasy #and most people dont remember what it used to be like even if it wasnt all that long ago #glow stage #spectrum #<- hana and kaoru's first appearance is there; later in west coast but its super brief there #nat #ara #hana #kaoru

19th Century YANDERE!WANDERER x F!Reader idea:

You were once a well-liked farmer in a remote village. Despite owning a small library of your own, which was a massive social symbol of wealth at the time, you experienced no discrimination from both the rich and the poor. Each side treated you with respect for you grew the finest of fruits and vegetables at such a cheap price. Go any lower, and they'd think you were positively doing charity work. Every poor man and noble maids would line up each morning for a chance to buy "Lady (Y/n)'s produce".

However, you faced your peaceful life's turning point when a hooded young man opted to cut the line. With grace, you approached him and politely told him to follow the rules. You see, if he cannot respect others, how can he respect the food you've grown with such kindness and care?

That's when WANDERER's interest piqued. He understood little of the North's customs. Where he's from— most transactions can be accelerated with the help of a Fixer. When (Y/n) raised an eyebrow at the sight of his bribery, he understood that he royally messed up. He didn't apologize, but he admitted that he was wrong and left the marketplace. But that was when he knew, there might finally be a place for him after all the traveling he had done.

If the village thought your prices were near charitable, your approach to befriending the WANDERER certainly was saint-like behavior. You visited his inn and presented him with a bread basket. With a hearty laugh, you uttered hopes that you were not bothering him as you watched him fix his bed-head. The dark-haired man could only watch perplexed as you motioned to the chair and asked to sit down. You asked for his name, he didn't comply. You asked if you could call him "Iris", just like how you'd assign flower petnames to close friends, and he only replied with a morning grunt and a pinkish hue on his cheeks.

Iris Ensata, in the royal gardens, meant "a gentle heart". Whether you knew floral languages or not, each time you called him by that name, his chest tightens as though he has one.

He's grown fond of your conversations, but his travels cannot cease. WANDERER's goal had always been to find an ancient artifact his mother preached. Attaining it meant he would be the next to rule the land, for he was secretly the Crown Prince. He was vague whenever he talked about his troubles to you, but you instantly related to his musings. You yourself managed the farm because you wanted to please your father. He saw you as a lesser human, and decided that to prove your worth, you needed to manage your own small "empire". His mother was the same. Both of you were tested, and you are now standing on the same crossroad. To be a slave to a kin's whims, or to carve your own path? He had yet to decide that for himself...

Hence, when stress had taken its toll, he pulls out his map to find his way back to you. Moonshines later, he reached the point where he no longer required one. His soul knew where you were. Where home was. Stopping by the village just to see you was always a lull before the storm. And he was incredibly excited to tell you that his adventure is now finished, and the crown now rests on his head.

But what if he was too late to salvage what was left of such a natural disaster? What if the lull was eerie? What if the lull was a silent void he could never get rid off?

In his return, he found not a storm, but a rain of fire. There, at the center of the square, was you. The smell of singed hair defiled his senses, and your face burned in his mind. He saw you everytime he closed his eyes.

"BURN THE WITCH!!! BURN THE WITCH!!!"

The mob drags on. And on. And on. The chant does not stop. He stands there, petrified.

When only the lull remains, he pulled down his hood and looked over to the stake you once stood.

"It's just ashes..." He muttered. "Nothing left but a-ashes..."

He chuckled, humorless. His voice was once a small crackling sound, like the fire that took you, until it erupted into a full blown laughter. His eyes were wide, and his grip on both your ashes and the earth you once tended to and loved made his knuckles white. The WANDERER— no, The CROWN PRINCE laughed hard in his mind, but that was not what the townsfolk heard.

What they heard was the alarming anguished screams of a lover who had everything he had stolen away.

He will be merciful, for he knew you still loved your friends and neighbors even when they had tied and burnt you to crisps. He will make their deaths brief. As brief as his soldiers could make this whole village burn and purged off all its filth.

Maybe when the spring comes back, so too will you return. Maybe once he had purged off all the filth in this village's wreckage, he'll find his home.

But until then, there is no longer any sense of gentleness in his own heart.

Iris ensata var. ensata

#flowers #nature #花菖蒲

[flowerishness]

Iris pseudacorus (yellow flag iris) and Iris ensata (Japanese water iris)

These two species of water iris are very similar in some ways. They both like wet, boggy environments and neither plant is native to Canada's west coast. However, if you put 'yellow flag iris' into a Google Search the first place that pops up is the Invasive Species Council of British Columbia website.

This plant is native to the Mediterranean area and the Middle East. It was brought to North America as a garden ornamental but is now 'naturalized' all over the place. If you drain the pond and bring in the bulldozers, it won't make any difference. If a tiny piece of the rhizome breaks off, the plant will completely reestablish itself in a few years.

This purple Japanese water iris, on the other hand, is a real thoroughbred, with no fewer than seventeen varieties listed in the prestigious, Royal Horticultural Society's, Award of Garden Merit. Back at the Invasive Species Council, Japanese water iris is actually recommended as a noninvasive alternative to yellow flag if you're planting a water garden. That's not my worry. I live on a standard city lot and I simply don't have the space for no fancy 'cement' pond.

guys help im in desperate need of an opinion

Iris Sanguinea (left) + Iris Ensata (right) side by side comparisons:

iris cantus for comparison:

extra tidbits of info to consider:

iris sanguinea's japanese name is ayame, which sounds closer to ayano than iris ensata's japanese name (hanashobu)

iris ensata is the symbolic flower of shibuya

both flowers grow near water and prefer damp environments, which fit ayano's rain themeing in her battle

#neo twewy #ayano kamachi #polls #theres a third japanese iris called Iris laevigata (Kakitsubata) but those dont have yellow markings like the other two so i excluded it
