SATSUKI KIRYUIN

CW: KLK spoilers, mention of: compulsory heterosexuality, physical & emotional violence, s-xual trauma, CSA, SA, r-pe (for the sake of better background and context about this anime & about Satsuki story)

About her character and why she is stone femme headcanon for me.

SATSUKI

This character does not have this cold, strong but sharp and fierce appearance as a random addition of traits just for the sake of fanservice. Her physical appearance and her personality traits are polished and calculated, yet she is pretty vulnerable on the inside and has a huge and rich inner world. She is acutely smart, a powerful strategist, a good and strong leader with the kindest heart I've ever seen in a character apparently so cold, stubborn or even despotic. But we have to keep in mind her upbringing and that she did what she had to do in order to survive because her main goal was to save the world and protect her closest friends. She wanted to free them as well as she wanted to free herself. But... from what?

SATSUKI'S PLOT

about her plans, goals and what Ryuko meant to her

Satsuki had such important goals: she wanted to free humanity (and herself) from the biofibers and the tyranny of her own mother, who was working with them to subjugate all the people on Earth, but she also craved to avenge her father and sister for what Ragyo did to them, so she fought for revenge but also for love. In the end, all that she wanted was to protect the ones she loved the most. 

Satsuki believed she could lead a revolution against Ragyo and the biofibers by using the power she had as her daughter against her. She took advantage of that power and the fear it inflicted on everyone to build a hierarchical system based on The Law of the Strongest and blind obedience (basically she militarised the school), and then she started to ‘colonise’ other schools to gather an army. She did this to trick her mother into thinking that she was working for her because her empire was much larger and stronger, so she had to be very cautious or else the chances to defeat Ragyo and the biofibers would be even lesser. All of these factors led her to repress her thoughts, feelings and emotions.

But when she met Ryuko, her plans started to change a bit: she saw a lot of potential in Ryuko and wanted her to get stronger and surpass her from the very beginning. She felt that Ryuko was something more, not just another soldier that could help her defeat Ragyo once and for all, and she wasn't wrong about it: later on they found out that Ryuko was that little sister Satsuki and Ragyo thought dead and that Isshin Matoi was actually Soichiro. He raised Ryuko and hid her from Ragyo with the hope that, one day, she would defeat her and the biofibers.

When these facts were revealed, Satsuki knew everything changed: she could trust someone of her own blood, she could finally have her dream family: one that she'd have built, one that she'd have chosen, one that would have truly and deeply loved her for who she is.

NONON

Now we have to talk about Nonon, Satuski’s best friend and (implicitly) lover, the only person who knew her best and could fully trust: this character can come across as an irritating or pedantic girl, but that’s just the surface; she acts tough the only way she knows just because she wants to show that she’s strong and the most important person in Satsuki’s life. I find it so heartwarming that even though the rest of the Elite Four are respectful and loyal towards Satsuki, it is Nonon that better understands her boundaries, and they treat each other as equals. Nonon is not just another subordinate to Satsuki (and never was). I think that because of this and her appearance (small, cute, etc) she wants her value as a fearsome opponent to be acknowledged, and that's why she acts so sassily and arrogantly (a thing which I personally love about her).

Nonon always finds the courage to fight and never gives up whenever Satsuki is near her; she feels the need to protect her, and she is always willing to carry all the weight if that means Satsuki will be safe and sound. 

She is the one who always took care of Satsuki’s deepest wounds but also her dreams, and is the only one who knows best the pain Satsuki had to endure in order to save everyone. Both of them shared their dreams and hopes with each other when they were kids, and since then Nonon took care of hers as well as Satsuki took care of Nonon’s. 

JUNKETSU

It is hard to talk about Junketsu and what it felt like his relationship with Satsuki and Ryuko to me right after talking about Nonon, but it has to be done if I want to illustrate why I headcanon Satsuki as a stone femme. 

Junketsu is, first and foremost, an allegory for compulsory heterosexuality. He was the symbol of the chastity/virginity forced upon the future bride and spouse, Satsuki (we have to remember it was Soichiro the one who told this to her, that Junketsu was going to be her wedding dress). So it was the underlying expectative of defeating Ragyo by sacrificing her will to Junketsu that her father put on her shoulders, one of the reasons that kept her from loving Nonon freely, openly and wholeheartedly, maybe the main one because Ragyo simply wanted the whole subjugation of her daughter, her complete devotion to the biofibers cause, while Junketsu was just a tool for both her father and mother that would force Satsuki to do the will of one or the other.

But even though Junketsu was just a tool, Satsuki had to wear it on all the time, which means that Satsuki was living constant situations of rape; after all, whenever Satsuki dressed Junketsu and tried to activate him, she endured a lot of pain and ended up very weakened from resisting Junketsu taking full control. And the thing here is, although Satsuki willingly wore Junketsu, that doesn’t mean she had another option. As I said, this suit was made to control her and Ragyo used it later to control Ryuko too. He, as the symbolic husband, tried to tie them up to heterosexuality at some point in their lives. 

So as we can see, Satsuki didn’t want to wear any biofiber cloth, she had to use them and let herself be used by them in order to save the whole world and set everyone free.

CONCLUSIONS

I think it is well pictured that Satsuki truly cares about people but felt she couldn’t trust them because of how the world was built by her mother and the biofibers, and also how Ragyo treated her with so much despite at the same time she emotionally and sexually abused her (it’s so obvious that Ragyo is a child abuser and a paedophile). But Ryuko was key to help her understand that things could be different, that she didn’t have to make everyone afraid of her in order to get what she wanted, that she actually could trust people. 

So for all that has been explained in this post is why I think Satsuki embodies so perfectly what it’s like to be a stone femme for me and not just for her appearance, but for her choices too. She had to carry so much weight on her shoulders but Nonon and the rest of her friends supported her without putting more pressure on her; they just took care of what Satsuki ordered them to do. 

I also find so relatable the way she copes with all the trauma she’s got from facing lots of sexual violence, and physical and emotional abuse, or the fact that a close relative (her own mother) made her believe she was a failure and a good for nothing, that she didn’t belong and would never be enough for her. She didn’t lose her kindness and her hopes and dreams even though she had to turn herself more tough, it just happened that she showed her soft side differently. She actually cares, she is the one who provides and she sacrifices lots of things to protect humanity’s freedom. And she finally learns to trust in the good potential of all humans, and to let the women she loves take care of her too. 

To conclude, Satsuki was key to make me come to terms with me being a stone femme because I can see lots of subtle details in how she moves, behaves, thinks and approaches things that -somehow-remind me of myself, although I know we are not on the same league. But I really think she might be a stone femme too because she is a woman with strong and rigid boundaries around every aspect of her life, and she defends and makes everyone respect them. In the whole anime I’ve never seen anybody try to question her and her boundaries, and I truly admire her a lot for this.

Sorry for a random drop-by, but holy shit. I used to be very active in KlK fandom 10-9 years ago, y'know, when it was still/had just been coming out and therefore at its peak. Your art was a big part of the scene - the one I engaged in, anyway. I think we interacted a bit too? Anywho, today I got nostalgic, started looking around tumblr to see what people are drawing on it and WHAM, here you are, very recently so. Felt intensely like seeing a familiar face in the crowd, made me unexpectedly emotional.

Anyway, hi! Nice to see you still around the Trigger parts, your Promare art is awesome and I love your fanchildren!

HELLO OMG 👋

klk never dies in my heart or my brain no matter how long its been. My opinions and how I form my AU has vastly changed from 10 years ago but its so cool to see old frogs that remember my CRINGE nonetheless 🥺

Mun Intro!

Hi, I'm Ty!

I've played a few characters in Isola (Iori KLK, Iskandar and Gray FGO, assorted others that haven't lasted so long) but for now, I play Anda (an OC) and Kratos TalesOf.

I've been in rp for a long time, and tumblr rp since... 2010? 2011? It's been a while. I first joined with The Other Group and migrated to Isola during the move, and stayed ever since! Now I'm Mod Caelum, and it's very cool to be able to be a part of the creative and administrative process for a hobby I love so much. (And I hope I'm not scary-looking? I'm about as intimidating as a goldfish.)

I like drawing and crocheting, fancy chocolates, black tea, and bugs (but I love moths in particular!) I also listen to history podcasts for fun, and I love to learn about food history in general. My favorite kinds of games are turn-based strategy games or point and click adventure/mystery games

If you'd like, you can follow my twitter here! It's locked to keep out randoms but feel free to follow! (18+ please)

I like RPing with anyone, so if you ever want to, just send me a message or something (or you can chat with me on the group discord, I'm there!)

I'm a believer in the power of love, friendship, and the ability to triumph in the face of adversity 💖

16 / 17 / 19

Ah. The one that I always enjoy reading their lore post and musings. (Scara and otherwise cause damn dude. You be paying attention.) Let’s go ahead and break these on down.

16.  what’s the best way to approach you to start playing together? 

A wild Sucrose just football tackled this answer out of your hands. What do you do??

17. what was your first muse? 

You know. I knew there was a day where this question would come in and shave the back of my head to baldness. Goodness, gracious, Seven help me, I need to reheat my leftover--

Nah I can’t keep avoiding this forever. Time for the confessional.

My first muse in RP ever was a self made Sonic recolor known as Blizzard the Hedgehog. I was a Sonic fan in the middle school days, and would you know it, the internet was around then too.. and HOW ABOUT THAT, a forum I discovered had this section called RolePlay that I happened to discover on top all of that.

I’ll be real with you, I got banned within a week and unbanned cause I didn’t care about rules back then. LMAO Thread invading, godmodding, giving my character random ass I caught on TV instead of keeping a contained template, goddamn I did it all.

And looking back on it now, it was fun as all hell. Their personality was virtually my idealized wonder on things I considered cool back then, and it was nothing but a hot mess wherever I roamed.

It wasn’t until my Naruto OC days that I found the sacred paths to self improvement. In Myspace I finalized in canon characters and man it’s been a happy lil journey since then.

Outside of those people that loved to use teenagers as free therapy back then. I’ma never miss that.

19. Do you have a ship bias?

Compared to other fandoms I’ve been in? I’d say that Thoma’s adventure here has been a lot more free spirited in that regard to me. Genshin has this view where it feels like so many characters could hit it off in a interesting fashion for me. So it becomes a big hotpot of an experimental phase for me, where usually, my RP partners wind up being the biggest influence on how I come picture how things flesh out. It’s like being able to hit the lottery on new perspectives.

Which tbh is new as hell to me. Since say for old fandoms I was in, my bias from Persona 5 would be Ryuji and Haru. (Delinquents and sweetheart princesses with a killer instinct?? Sign me up.) Sanageyama and Satsuki from klk, so on and so for.

So Genshin struck cool possibilities with me.

[righteousdelusions]

also I didn't add it to the tags of that post because, whatever, it feels stupid to add where some random can see it, but i do want to say I'm tired of "oh she can fight but she's still femenine" and I'm always like: where are the non femenine fighters lmao? Where are they.

I don't like it. The aesthetic of maho shojo. When i was a little girl i liked it a bit, but i was never wild for it, and now I just get a bit bored.

Now that i think about it this is a thing of bodytype as well because the non femenine fighters tend to be like... Massive The Rock type bodies which are fine but I'd like more diversity in my butches lmao

In general my ideal woman fighter is a tomboy. But like, a real tomboy. She can be beautiful but she doesn't have to try AT ALL. She must be beautiful the way a boy is, as per the requisites of being a tomboy. Jolyne is... Tomboy-ish? More brass than anything else, and she's a girlie girl previous getting arrested so.

Ryuko from klk was an actual tomboy, and the whole ED of her looking at clothes -> the shoping date -> personal girlie fashion as an allegory for freedom resonated a lot with me [in that context] because I also feel that way in some sort of sense, like if i grew up in a more normal way I'd be different, I would've experimented more.

It's not like I'm not in time but you know.

KLK honestly would be perfect if it weren't for all That. But it's all That that makes it perfect also. The dilemma. I always cry at the end. Truly a masterpiece. I'm thinking about it and I kinda want to put a Ryuko icon again.

Going back, i just feel it's not an attractive hook for me that's all. Oh they are girlies but they fight. Ah ok. *They look like they are dancing* ok sure. You're not selling it for me as something that is *like shonen*. It's indeed something else.

Also the feelings are not the same most of the time, like i want a specific sort of Toxicity you know. Madoka Magica... Sort of hits? But as I said, the aesthetic is not something I'm wild for, and anyways, that's for boys too, so yeah.

And i knoooow there must be something in battle Shojo for me i know Shojo is a good demographic actually i just... I just want Naruto but written good you know? Can somebody do that to me.

Hot take: AI generation of art is largely a way of getting around copyright law, and that's good.

My #1 post of 2022

The Tiktok book piracy isn't exactly piracy. Like the issue isn't that it violates copyright. The issue is that you read the book, return it, and then the author has to pay damages to Amazon, damages that are more than what they initially made when you first bought the book. Like you pay Amazon ten bucks (random numbers), Amazon gives the author three bucks, and when you return the book, Amazon pays you back ten bucks but takes those ten bucks in full from the author, costing them seven.

That sounds like an Amazon problem to me.

Like, to be clear, I happen to have some experience with the seller side of Amazon, and Amazon routinely screws sellers in this way. But I assume you wouldn't say that someone returning a lawn chair or whatever is doing something immoral, right?

Yes. I do. I know. I am aware of tropes and their utilization and how storytelling works and how the entertainment industry works and the ways in which all these things can and do function to create counterproductive messages and fall short of perfect representation. I KNOW. I AM AWARE THAT THINGS HAVE FLAWS. You do not have to keep shouting at me or demand that i preface every comment I make about these works with, “I AM ASHAMED I LIKE THIS BECAUSE I KNOW IT’S pRObLeMaTic.”

After (finally) finding the drawings of Mako’s life before meeting Ryūko, I’ve realized why Mako gets so close to Ryūko and why she clings onto her. Based on the drawings, Mako was an outcast (which was mentioned in the show) but only because she never went to talk to the other girls at both elementary and middle school and vice versa. When she meets Ryūko, Mako is the one that talks to her first. The fact that Ryūko responded to her must’ve been enough to spark some sort of hope in Mako. Hope that she’d finally gained a friend. Furthermore, I think she automatically assumes Ryūko as a friend is because Ryūko took the time to talk to her. I mean, look at Mako’s face after talking to Ryūko for the first time and after she tell Ryūko she could sit next to her:

Long story short, though Mako is generally an optimistic person, Ryūko might’ve been one of the best things to happen to Mako.
