Pt 2 , Pt. 3 , Pt. 4

You swam about in the ocean. Your pod had migrated to warmer, more tropical waters to switch up hunting grounds. Swimming in-between your similarly aged pod mates, you issued a silent challenge to go into a race to the sea shelf. There were two males with extremely light, white-looking hair and striking purple eyes who took you up and torpedoed in the water towards your target. The three of you were neck and neck. The largest male had an extraordinarily well-built, lightly tanned, defined upper torso. His silver and purple bi-colored body resembled that of a whiptail thresher in the pattern. It ended with long sharp homocercal fins. The edges had tiny serrated barbs running up his dorsal and anterior body. His pelvic and pectoral fins were knifed much like a shark’s would be. His body was built for speed and agility. Short bursts of high-velocity action were his forte. Often, he would be part of the ambush party. 

The other male who dwarfed you in size was built stockier than you and the first. His caudal, pectoral, and pelvic fins were smaller in size. His green and white patterning resembled that of a juvenile tiger shark. The upper torso was more tanned than the larger male. His tail coloration was a murky Phthalo, hunter, and forest green with silver streaking across his body randomly. He could swim longer distances at a sustained pace, putting him in the stalking party when larger prey was found. His hair was whiter than silver like your other companion. His body was littered with scars, giving him a fearsome look. It didn’t help that, like now, when he smiled, he looked exceptionally unhinged. 

The two were your best friends, even if they had hatched several seasons before. The three of you just vibed that way. Darting between each other, the most prominent in size male pushed forward using his massive tail to disrupt the water in front of you, throwing you off your course slightly. You spun in the water but quickly fanned out your fins, allowing you to do a badass slow-motion barrel roll in the water. Righting yourself before propelling your body forward. 

You had dark sienna skin with close-cropped hair. Not wanting to deal with getting your hair caught in coral or anything else that floated around. You were of average built but had a buxom chest. Plump full lips and deep, dark brown eyes. Your fins were some of the most gorgeous in your entire pod. Purples, black, and gold resembling a lionfish. Too many shades of purple littered your scales with a speckling of gold and black dotting up your belly, giving the appearance of lights. You had feathertail-styled fins, which, when fanned, made for an impressive or intimidating display. All depending on what you were needed to do. Your position in the pod was to herd prey that you found into the ambushers. On occasion, you were used for the intimidation factor because of how massive you looked when on full display. 

The green-finned male darted up from underneath you, trying to knock you off course. You expertly evaded his attack, pushing forward with more vigorous thrusts as you were determined to overtake the silver and purple mer in front of you. Unfortunately, he proved to be the strongest, crossing the shelf and posturing in the open waters. His pose could only be described as overly flashy and highly flamboyant. You crossed second with the last member of your trio, bringing up the rear looking non-plussed. You slowed down behind the winner, reached out, and grabbed the ribbon he used to keep his hair up in a ponytail, yanking it and darting down towards the darker, denser waters beneath the overhang of the sea shelf. 

“Give that back!” He yelled at you. Gills on his neck flaring. You feign ignorance as the third member of your group cackled. “Shut up, Sanemi,” the first male barks out. “Make me, Tengen.” Sanemi dared him. The two begin to circle each other in a predatory fashion. You knew a challenge to dominance when you saw one. Rolling your eyes, you sighed, turning your body to face the darkness beneath you. “Guys, guys, behave. It’s not that serious.” The two men turned to glare at you. “Stay away from there!” your green friend warned. “That’s not our domain. You’d be eaten up, and our pod would miss its second most attractive member.” He stated matter-of-factly. 

“Uhuh, sure, Tengen.” You dismiss them and swim closer. Curious about the differences in the weight of the water. The water felt much cooler here and heavier. An unusual combination you have never encountered before. Above you, the two mers circled, watching you while trying to show off who was the better specimen to each other. A mock show of superiority. Ignoring their antics, you got close enough to touch the stark line of demarcation. That separated the boundary between the true deep sea and where you dwelt. 

You reached out to touch but stopped seeing something red moving about. It peaked in and out. Never appearing in the same spot twice, but it was captivating. Soon the red was joined by fluffy warm yellow tufts of hair. You realized you were looking at someone or something’s hair. You halted your swimming, entranced. Vaguely you registered that you needed to back up. A chill crept up your spine that warned you danger was nearby. Still, you could not break away from watching the hypnotic effect the waving tufts had on you. 

Closer you inched. Not touching the line. Keeping to your side of the ocean but feeling the dual pull to retreat to safety and to go forward eating away at you. You almost gave in to the urge to go forward when you felt yourself jerked back up harshly, painfully, and quickly. Tengen and Sanemi Grab your arms, digging their stilettoed nails into your flesh. You yelped, startled while they swore in such an amount you would have complained had you not been stupefied by the most beautiful pair of scarlet and goldenrod eyes. They held you to such an extent you momentarily forgot to pull water in with your gills and breathe. It was only when you saw the reddened claws that came to the nail bed of a brandy-toned arm connected to an immensely muscled forearm did you realize what had almost transpired and sucked in water. Thus, replenishing your oxygen. The eyes glared at you with pure malice, then disappeared into the darkness along with the hand that had almost dragged you to your no doubt demise. 

The two men didn’t stop swimming with you till you were halfway back to your pod. They released you and swam in front, worriedly biting their lips as they looked you over. You blinked a few times, getting your sense back. The weight of the situation settling into your gut. The moment your eyes met Sanemi’s, he exploded in a rage. “WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT! YOU ALMOST DIED, DUMBASS! WE TOLD YOU NOT TO GO THERE AND WHAT DO YOU DO!? THE EXACT OPPOSITE!” He swam aggressively towards you, warningly prompting you to flare out some of your fins. He ignored it and got close enough to poke you in the chest accusingly. “Do you have a death wish?” he bit out. Anger radiated out from him in thick waves. You puffed up defensively, not wanting to admit you had majorly fucked up just now. Tengen watched the other, light-haired male rant at you. Steadily watching you deflate in silent acknowledgment of dangerous your slip up. 

Once you looked like a limp noodle, he swam over and separated the two of you. “Alright, alright, I think she gets it now. You can stop beating her. We got her to safety, and now she owes us a life debt. I’d say it all worked out.” He attempts to raise the mood. Sami’s eyes narrow at you, and he rudely swims passed you. Hissing and swearing. You rub the back of your neck and slowly turn to follow him. You feel a warm arm pull you up into stiff, thick pectorals. Flipping yourself over, you bury your face in them as Tengen swims forward, holding you. Humming silently and he rubs the little hair you have with affection. 

“He’ll come around.” The man holding you assures you as the sounds of your families can be heard off in the distance. “He’s still an asshole.” you lamented lamely. Trying to hide your bruised ego. Tengen growls before he speaks. “He was in a fantastic mood until you decided to be a complete and utter idiot and do the one thing we are warned not to do from hatch day onwards.” You groan loudly and speak in sync with him. “Never go past the sea meridian.” He huffs and glares at you. Not releasing you as he swims in between the members of your pod. 

As the pair of you swim amongst the others, you peek out from around his bicep. Some say hi while others stare in shock. The two of you made a striking pair, and how he held you protectively was sure to start rumors about your relationship. You rebury your face in his chest, not wanting to deal with the drama that would be you becoming the fourth mate of one Uzui Tengen. You braced your arms against his taunt abdominals and pushed off. “I’m gonna go find Sanemi and apologize,” you say dumbly. Trying to get away from prying eyes. “Or you could just agree to swim with me, and the ladies and Sanemi can come to pick you up later.” He eyes you mischievously. “Tempting, but I am gonna have to pass. I feel like that would get me in even more trouble.” you dart out of his grasp as he reaches for you.

“Tell that ass I said hi, and we are responsible for tomorrow’s hunting party,” Tengen calls out after you. You wave an affirmation with your hand as you head off to search for your ill-tempered companion. Starting your search along the more predictable reef crevasses. When he could not be found hiding among the anemones, you started probing in the eel caves. Still coming up empty. You grabbed a few eels and bonked them unconscious, taking them with you as you searched for your friend. What’s an apology without food, right? If you come across someone, you would ask if they had seen Sanemi, and for the most part, you were told no. Eventually, you started swimming towards the cove the younger members used to play in. Hoping to find him with his brother Genya. 

Thankfully you did. The two were both lying on the beach. Basking in the fading sunlight. You breached the water slowly and carefully, took aim, and tossed two eels at them. Smacking each guy in their gut with a 10lb fish. They oof’d and looked up at you with malicious intent. “See! I brought dinner.” You cheerfully countered. The smaller, similarly colored male mer beside him groaned at your antics, took the ill, hauled himself into the water, and swam off. Offering you a half-asses “Thank you” as he swam off. You crept through the water till you reached the shoreline and the tip of the remaining, still angry man’s tail. 

“So, something tells me that bringing you dinner isn’t gonna make up for today,” you say bashfully. Knowing your error and finally owning up to it. “No,” Sanemi replies monotone. You look up at him pleadingly. “Please.” You whine in your most pathetic voice. “I’m sorry. These fluffy red and yellow tufts were floating in my face, and I couldn’t stop looking.” You rambled. He stared at you, then closed his eyes in a sigh. “That explains why you ignored our shouting. From where we were at, we saw a red and gold leviathan tail. That’s why we grabbed you like we did and hauled ass.” the concern evident in his words. “We’ll be safe here, but we definitely need to be more careful along the shelf. Those types don’t cross into our waters often, but if that thing was that close, it could mean we need to move along and find new grounds to stay at for the rest of the year. “

You crawled up the beach, flopping down on top of him and running your fingers gently over his deep green-colored scales. “That,” you began, “sounds terrifying. As you both were pulling me away, I saw the most beautiful and amazing...” you trailed off, watching Sanemi’s eyes get darker as you complimented the man who had most definitely tried to kill you. 

Since you had hatched, you had always been taught about the three classes of merfolk. There were the dainty and waif-like mermaids that stayed in cold waters. Sirens like yourself and your pod stuck to warm waters and occasionally migrated to keep from depleting y’alls share of ocean fish. Then there were the Leviathans. Named for their extreme size and lengths. They were large, carnivorous, and capable of surviving in the true deep and at the surface level. Encounters with them were few and far between but often held fatalities.  

You nuzzled into Sanemi’s abs as you thought about the horror stories you had heard about Leviathans and how close your premature end had come. Your thoughts were broken, however, when your living pillow shoved some eel bites into your mouth. You chewed compliantly and opened your mouth for more after you swallowed. He rolled his eyes at you but continued to feed you. Once finished, you did the same for him until nothing was left to eat. 

Rolling over onto the sand, you squealed happily, stomach-sated and somewhat positive that your friends were no longer mad enough to attempt to drown you while you slept. “You guys can brag and say you survived a Leviathan now,” you said like the gremlin menace you were inside. Sanemi hummed happily as he pondered this new information. “SHIT! Tengen is going to take all the credit!” He exclaimed, turning himself over and pulling towards the sea. “Come on! He is going to take you out to be even more pathetic than you actually are, and I’m going to sound like a damsel in distress if we let him tell the story.” He complained loudly. You waved him off with one of your dark hands. “I’ll leave that to you boys. I don’t want to see people’s reactions to The-woman-who-almost-wasn’t.” you lamented.

Sanemi shrugged, winked at you then dove beneath the surface. Off to claim his bit of glory. Probably to make you look even dumber than you had been. In your defense, the other men had a pretty good lure if he looked like that. You were used to Mermaids looking gaudy, but this was different. The power that radiated from the eyes you saw had promised you a dark end. Thinking about them chilled you to the bone but also sent a more confusing tingle down your spine. You forcefully pushed the thoughts out of your mind and instead focused on absorbing the remaining warmth in the black sand. 

You woke up, and it was much darker. Not realizing you had fallen asleep, you stretch out and slowly return to the much more tepid waters. Whimpering as it stung your skin and scales initially with the temperature change. After a few seconds, your body adapted, and you began to swim back to your pod. It was late enough that almost everyone except for a few night fish would be asleep. 

You decided to dick around for a bit before returning and swam around the outskirts of the reef y’all would be occupying and caring for over the next 6 months minimum. It was lush with life and color, even at this hour. Fish darted to and fro in all sorts of varieties and combinations. Different types of sea life clung to rocks, each other, and other bits n bobs. You picked up a few pieces of coral, admiring their beauty. Seeding them into holes so that the reef could grow and expand. 

Time was again lost to you as you immersed yourself in your task. You had just finished setting a pretty piece of red coral into a new crevice when you noticed a distinct lack of fish in the area. In fact, there was a distinct lack of any life moving around you. Something that alarmed you greatly. Your eyes begin to search around you for the perceived threat. If it was a shark or two, you could easily handle that on your own. Anything more significant and you would need help. 

Off in the distance, you saw something flitting about. Winding and weaving with no rhyme or reason. Your head tilted in curiosity, danger sense still telling you to be wary. You kept your position as you watched the gold thing flit about. You could see bright red as it got closer, and the truth dawned on you. Quickly you darted into a crack in the reef that was just big enough for you. Apologizing to the denizens, you squeezed as far back into it as possible. Slowing your movements and water intake to cause as few vibrations in the water as possible.

It seemed like an eternity before you dared to move your head towards the doorway. Scared of what you would see. A hesitant glance revealed absolutely nothing. A few fish swam by hurriedly, and you sighed and deflated. Tension rolling off your body. Your mind was clearly fucking with you if it had you thinking a Leviathan would leave its territory and swim a decent number of kilometers away from the deep waters to where your group was. You chuckled to yourself, leaned back, and floated against some smooth coral. Closing your eyes in relief. 

When you opened them, you stared straight into those hypnotizing orbs you had seen earlier. Only this time, there was a full face to accompany them. Brandy-colored skin, full lips drawn back into an unhinged smile, and a beautiful face framed by a maned of blond and red hair. You couldn’t see much passed his mane except for deep sanguine scales streaked with gold as some of his lower body was visible. You couldn’t see anything passed his neck either. He was hanging onto the roof and leaning over to look at you. 

You knew it was a he from the deep chuckle that vibrated the water around it. He stayed staring at you, unblinking. You held his stare, also not blinking. Worried that if you did, that would be the end. A good, solid minute passed, and you whined. “Can you blink or something so I can blink? This is getting awkward.” The creature before you looks at you curiously and complies. You quickly blink several times and rub your eyes. “Aye, how do you hold your eyes open like that? It’s creepy.” You question him. 

His smile drops, and he stares at you with the most unimpressed face you have ever seen. You defensively ask him a quick “What!?” and wait for a response. When none is given, you huff and blow out irritated bubbles. “I should kill you.” a deep voice drawls out. Not as deep as your pod’s defensive commander, Gyomei. You’re brought out of your comparison of “who has the best voice” as your brain once again slowly registers the statement. “You could, but that wouldn’t be fun now, would it?” you respond with as much faked joy as you could manage. What you were not going to do was let on how terrified you were of something that could end you without effort. 

“It’s not about fun.” He responds bored sounding. “Dude, what the fuck!? Life should be fun. If you just end me, then your life will once again be boring and full of whatever it is you do over there on the dark side.” you supplied, hoping your bullshit was working. “I hunt, I sleep. Why should I focus on fun?” He casually inquires, pulling himself down into the cave. You could now see his muscular upper body. He was similarly built to Sanemi. Tengen still made both look scrawny. You made your appraisal obvious to go along with your ruse and also because you were shameless, and if this was the end, then you were going out being a bold, badass bitch. Not a chicken wuss. 

“I mean, if you never had fun, I can see why you would say that. But like, I’m here now. I can teach you all about fun, and you can leave me the fuck alone.” You did your best to look irritated, turning your head down and away from him. Your heart thundering in your chest, hoping the display of submissive indifference would work. The massive male in front of you laughed loudly. “What an interesting meal you are.” Your head snapped up as you felt his warmth around you. He was close enough that your noses brushed, and you gasped. Instinct taking over you, “Meeped” and struck him with the heel of your palm upwards. Gasping at your actions as you realized what you had done. 

Blood floated in the waters between you, originating from his nose. He stared at you, and you stared back. He was very unimpressed at this point, and it showed. The gills on his neck slowly flattened themselves, and you realized that he was moving in for the end. Throwing caution to the wind, you slapped him will all your might. “Look bitch, if you don’t get up outta my face, I promise you that you will have found the right one today!” That got a reaction out of him. His eyes widened, and he leaned away from you. Shock evident.

You flared up as much as possible in the cramped space and bared your teeth at him. A hand shot out at you and grabbed your jaw. Defiantly you raised your chin and shook yourself out of his grasp. “Bitch I told you,” you started but stopped when you saw him smile. You didn’t know what kind of smile, nor did you care. The only thing that mattered was that the monster of your nightmares, the literal only thing in the ocean you had to truly fear, was smiling at you menacingly. “You live today, little fish.” He said as he stroked your cheek gently with the hand that had grabbed you earlier. 

The Leviathan, before you released, you pulled out of the crevice. Looking at you once more with those predatory eyes, he pushed off and disappeared out of your sight. You waited a few minutes before you slowly peered out. Looking around and seeing no sign of him, you bolted back to your pod’s haven. Wanting the safety and comfort of your friends.

What are the victors favourite colours? What colours do you associate them with?

HUH.

yeah those aren't necessarily the same thing, which is interesting

Petra's favourite colour is blue, but I associate her with red

Claudius' favourite colour is like ....... a soft, mossy forest green, sort of? but I associate him with grey

Brutus' favourite colour is blue, I have no associations for him

Lyme is like a ... maroon / burgundy sort of thing (don't ask her the difference, she'll make an incredulous face at you)

Nero I associate with teak? because of all the carving, and I do think he probably likes that a lot bc his house is mostly natural wood

Enobaria ... hm. Nero tries to surround her with calm, non-violent colours so there's probably a lot of blue-green (insert children's hospital joke here). I don't know if she has a favourite but the Capitol dresses her in red, silver and gold so she reflexively dislikes those

Callista, obviously, I associate with blood-red, and she would say that's her favourite colour because that's her Brand TM but is it? hard to say. I feel like she actually likes other colours better but branding is everything. it's probably actually jewel tones

Adessa's favourite colour is royal purple, she owns several tailored leisure suits in this colour

I associate Hera with gold (like, sunrise gold, gold-like-the-sensation-of-victory, not the material) but I know it's not her favourite, that would be so unbelievably tacky. I don't actually know what it is

Similarly I associate Odin with silver but I'm not sure what his favourite colour is

Misha is like, favourite............. colour? y'all are weird. she likes bright things and clashing patterns, not pastels. I don't associate her with colour so much as the vibe

I associate Devon with earth tones but I actually think his favourite colour is sunny yellow and sky blue

Trying to wring a preference out of Emory is ridiculous but I think she likes blue, also warm yellows and oranges for walls

Alec is a basic boy who likes navy blue and will not be shamed for it

I have NO idea what Creed's favourite colour is (he's not a boy he's a statement of faith~) but I associate the Angel of Death with black and silver

I associate Selene with silver (moon goddess / shiny knives), my instinct is that she hasn't really thought about favourite colour but I'll get back to you (EDIT: i was correct!)

Ronan, hm. Favourite colour is ........ green? I think? like a rich, deep phthalo green, or a pine tree canopy at the height of summer. I mostly associate him with black, I think

(RIP to the ones I don't know, I'll get to know you eventually <3)

THIS WAS FUN I LIKED THIS ONE :)

🥕 🍅 🍏 🌽 🥭 🥒 🥬 Harumi

🥕 [CARROT] How tough is your OC against certain situations? How weak are they against others?

Umi is rather steadfast and resilient through most situations.. finding his way out of most trouble ot defusing it.. The most I could imagine, is him struggling with physical fights or altercations. He may be able to handle his own in most cases.. Umi prefers to be passive and gentle..

🍅 [TOMATO] How misunderstood is your OC? In-universe or IRL.

Umi is seen as a spoiled man.. who casts judgment onto others unfairly.. and has been a title that hasn't been able to be shaken from his name. He has tried to shift it.. but isn't keen to please everyone. As long as he puts his best self forward.. that's all he can do. He isn't compensating or offended by what has been labeled to him.

🍏 [GREEN APPLE] How do they differ from the norm and how are they punished for it?

As a dragon shifter.. cusp blood, wearing multiple colors and being a wish granter? Well... There are many things he can be punished for. He has had to fake his death.. hide his spawn and hide away for his crime of not being subservient and bend to others wills.

🌽 [CORN] How good are they at hiding and finding their way?

Rather good at both! You'd be surprised- he's managed to evade the empire and others who seek him for a good ten sweeps now.. and he can vanish rather quick and quietly too! For finding his way.. he usually always knows his surroundings after a trip through. Certain details bring him immense joy and stick out to him! Such as.. a flower that the sun hits right.. a rock with a funny moss pattern or maybe just a stick that fell in a particular spot! All good land markers

🥭 [MANGO] What colours best represent them and why? Does this differ from their favourites?

I think gold best represents him- Generosity and compassion.. and kinda has some divinity and power tones underneath!

Though his favorite color is seafoam green and phthalo green. Colors he associates with the waters

🥒 [CUCUMBER] How innocent are they (unaware to the bad happenings around them)?

He may pretend to not be completely aware, but after seeing into.. the emperors mind to judge him.. He is keenly aware of the atrocities that have been left in his wake.. it does bother him greatly.. but keeps it buried down and closed off

🥬 [LEAFY GREEN] How mundane are they? Do they like it that way?

Harumi is actually not incredibly dull or boring.. at least not in the personality department but his hobbies do leave much to be desired xD,, napping, diving, exploring and fishing isn't much.. He doesn't particularly have much access to things he once enjoyed.. Such as fortune telling or basket weaving. He is find that things have changed.

Home Sweet Hive

1.4k Words A walk around Villoh's hive (Originally just a practice in setting detail.) Google Doc Link

Your hive was always a comfortable, safe place for you. Wandering about through the recreation block, you take your time to actually perceive and acknowledge your surroundings. Did you always have that stool in the corner? Sometimes you forget just what you have. Too often you take this place for granted. Even in your down time, it’s become so commonplace; just a blur. But just for a little while, you decide to take a good look at it all. Every little detail. Maybe you’ll actually dig up a nice memory, for once.

 You had near full control over how your hive was constructed and you still love how everything about it feels. Despite the gray, bland colors of the walls, there is so much color splashed about. On purpose, of course. You'd gone to great lengths to collect furnishings and baubles to liven up the place. To make it worth coming back to. Perhaps a part of you always knew you were prone to wandering. Your hive stands as a testament to your existence, and acts as a catch-all for the souvenirs from your journeying.

Once you found out the sunlight wasn't dangerous for you, it only opened up new doors for decorations. Crafting wasn't and still isn’t exactly your thing, but it brought you joy putting together those faded suncatchers. All they were were beads, bits of crystal and shards of stained glass wound simply together with thin copper wire, but seeing the rainbows refracted from them in the first rays of dawn brought you a peace you'd never felt before. Even the moonlight looked lovely in the facets of crystals. Many sit hanging in your windows, idly spinning with the drafts flowing through.

The floors were draped with all manner of rugs. Some were simple mats, others a collage of afghan patterns with a myriad of blues, browns and greens. The walls were also adorned with a manner of mementos. Posters you got from some obscure indie band while working as a hired hand for them, as well as a painting of you from your favorite co-worker. She insisted on having you as a subject.

 A poorly crafted macramé you'd made in your wigglerhood sat by a shelf decorated with a shiny rock collection, and bottles of different colored sands. Near the entrance to  your respiteblock was a bolt of cloth you'd swiped from the caverns before you were ousted. It was beautiful; a phthalo green color, shimmering in the light with a golden trim around the edges. It hung from a few struts descending from the ceiling and extended over a few chairs. Rays coming through the loft were absorbed by the canopy and made the gathering area underneath just a bit warmer than anywhere else.

Speaking of the loft, that was your favorite of all places to be. Yes, hanging on the enormous red canopies outside was fun, but nowhere else were you more relaxed. At the very top of the staircase in the middle of your hive was a transparent-floored block covered by a large glass dome. Another awning stretched out over top of it to save you from some of the sun's burning heat, but light was still able to filter in around it. 

You at one point had grown plants here, but since then have replaced them with fake ones to avoid the guilt of not caring for them. The furniture was low to the ground; mostly it was bean bags, cushions and a low coffee table that has been covered in books you haven't read in who knows how long. You do have a bookshelf up here, but it's too much trouble to put them all back. It was much easier to scatter your found treasures and pictures of old friends there.

When it's nighttime, all the fairy lights you'd acquired in a ridiculous sale come to life. They don't all match: some are pink, some are white, and some are blue and in the shape of some fowl. They string across the loft in rows, casting a soft light on the surrounding scene. You even had enough lights left over to spin around the railings of the staircase leading down. There's also a purple and pink lava lamp on an end table that got shoved into a corner. It's always on, along with a small fan you set to blow on it so it doesn't overheat.

At the end of the night, however, the rest of your time at home was spent in your respite block. You had more pillows and cushions than you knew what to do with, so more of them sat at the foot of your bed. In front of the window sat a cheap wooden desk and a chair you'd found out by the roadside. The desk wobbled some, and the seat for the chair should probably be replaced, but otherwise works well enough for you. On your desk sits a tape recorder, along with a few blank tapes and a small radio. Sure, it’s also covered with random pieces of trash, like that receipt from the coffee shop you work at, but those are the only real items of note.

Even more shelves littered the walls of this room. On one was a picture of you when you were young, your lusus curled up around you. A friend had taken it for you, but their face is not one you can remember. A number of things were on the others. Books, rocks, some dried flowers and other oddities could be found. 

One such oddity was a gilded kaleidoscope you were gifted from that time you were a deckhand on a fishing boat. It doesn't turn anymore, but you refuse to get rid of it. Those were good times, even if you can’t remember those you worked with. Another was a puzzle box you found while working at an antique shop somewhere up north. It’s dark-colored and heavy, something rattles around inside of it. You can't solve the puzzle, and neither could anyone else, so if there's anything of worth inside remains to be seen.

A poster for another band hangs over a coat rack in your room. The prongs on it are straining under the weight of the miscellaneous coats, jackets and scarves you put there. Across from your bed is a huge wardrobe. A few clothes were scattered in front of it from this evening's routine, but the rest of your outfits were tucked neatly away. Well, they would be neat if it wasn't so packed with pieces you couldn't bear to get rid of. But hey, all of it fits at least. 

Outside of the wardrobe in a small caddy lies your growing shoe collection. Most of them are for work, but what sticks out is the combat boots and 2-inch platform lace-ups. Those platforms are ankle-breakers, but they were a gift from your friend, Tao, who’s convinced you look great in them. You’d never admit it to her, but you think so too.

Your meal block isn’t very well equipped with utensils or appliances. It’s pretty standard, otherwise. You’ve got a stove and a thermal hull, some plates you picked up from a second-hand store… Well. Most of your equipment is from a thrift store. It’s way cheaper to clean something up than it is to buy it new most of the time. The one thing you didn’t get from a store is a cast-iron pan you snagged from a junk heap you found in a very odd place. It’s heavy, and when you do cook it comes in handy. Not that you make anything fancier than a slightly overcooked omelet.

On the thermal hull is a bunch of magnets. Some hold up pictures; you laugh at the one of your moirail. He’d just decided to go anonymous, and botched up his hair dye royally. There’s one of you, too; it’s one you’d taken while out working. There was a beautiful cliff side near one of your destinations. You’re holding up a peace sign while struggling to hold a couple packages.

On another magnet is a note with a phone number on it. You know all too well who it belongs to, given there’s a photo right next to it of you and your ex-kismesis. As much as you tell yourself to get rid of it, you just can’t.

Before you know it, you’ve wandered all the way back to your respite. The pile of cushions are tempting, but instead you take a seat at your desk. Pulling out a journal from your pocket, you begin writing with a nearby pen. There’s nothing for you to do today, so why don’t you figure out what your next plan of action will be? Dress, or suit?

Changxing Datang Gong Cha Vipusea Hotel

Changxing Datang Gong Cha Vipusea Hotel, China

Ride a white deer to visit the mountain, go by boat in the early morning. Drink tea and forget this mortal life, how leisurely and relaxed this place is!

Characterized by overhanging structure with a balanced and symmetrical scale, as if walking in the streets of the Tang Dynasty, the modern curtain forms the palette, and the cultural memory of the prosperous dynasty has been quietly transformed and unfolded in a contemporary project. Changxing Datang Gong Cha Vipusea Hotel is located in the scenic Gong Cha Town, Changxing County, Huzhou City, which is well known for its tea culture. Kenna Design has created a complete interior space for it.

The interior design reshapes the exquisiteness of the modern Tang style, integrates the boundaries of tradition and modernity elegantly and appropriately, and presents a unique and far-reaching contemporary lifestyle with an oriental aesthetic of order.

01/ Turning the past into the present, there is an auspicious omen

Etiquette comes from human nature and meets the needs of life. The phoenix likes the water and the sun, which is called auspiciousness.

Since ancient times, China has inherited the tradition of establishing space order with the ritual system, affecting people’s behavior through atmosphere creation, transforming moral values into aesthetic awareness, and integrating them into daily life and customs. Etiquette and the phoenix are the presentations of oriental imagery and hospitality, which are simple, subtle, sublime, and profound.

The space level is unfolded in a ceremony form constructed by the “door”, which is a new modeling language deconstructed and reorganized from traditional architectural elements. Stepping to the lobby and passing through the moon gate, the high and deep space has a restrained and magnificent style of the Tang dynasty with regular rituals and silent spirit.

It is not limited to the grafting of traditional elements or the interpretation of symbols, but returns to the spiritual core of tradition, integrates with the present lifestyle, interprets the past like inheritors, and reshapes it with modern etiquette.

With the phoenix flying up high, the banquet hall reveals the unadorned and noble spirit in a magnificent way, outlining the blessings to the guests and the yearning for beauty in the delicate and lush details.

Just like the ancients using graceful and restrained colors, the overall space has an ink-black and ochre palette, decorated by mineral green, phthalo blue, vermilion, and gamboge, showcasing the ancient oriental colors. These colors give the space a rhythm, inviting visitors to travel deep through hidden and narrow corridors.

02/ Tea with dragon and phoenix patterns, a cordial hospitality

Following the rocks and walking into the bamboo forest, the vermilion background glows with a gamboge halation, as if going through a tunnel of historical time and space, where the epitome of culture is vaguely expressed in the details. There are many openings in the courtyard to form a transparent flow between the courtyards. The transition of each independent space is full of the beauty of the natural artistic conception, in which the interior contrasts and blends with the outdoor scenery.

The refurbishment of the restaurant is based on the brick structure of the building, which extends the traditional wooden structure, responding to the sloping roof rhythm with natural wood and rattan texture.

Against the backdrop of hidden lights, the double-height display racks form a well-proportioned rhythmic order with the ceiling structure. Grey decorative walls and furniture create a low-key and warm conversation atmosphere.

The circular window sash and continuous grilles open up different perspectives, guiding diners to travel in the painting, making the orderly dining experience full of vitality.

When the potted plants outside the private room come into view, they matched with the gray walls and brown doorposts to create a quiet and elegant dining atmosphere. The extroverted life is connected with the lively changes of the four seasons, while the introverted mind adheres to calmness and consistency.

When the night falls, the overlapping corridor becomes a part of the painting, where the distant mountains and ancient pine trees create a mysterious and dark Chinese painting. Taking serenity and elegance as the main thread through a modern design method, the design has released the nature of this Chinese-style courtyard, which is quiet, leisurely, and comfortable.

03/ The phoenix perched on the phoenix tree, hidden under the eaves

At night, the warm golden light pours down from the roof, as if the space is breathing. Entering the private guest room, the layout is infiltrated with the landscape. The contemporary scale and materials create a new space character. The simplicity and elegance of the guest rooms form a sharp contrast with the splendor of the building, evoking people’s perception of a quiet life.

With clear layers everywhere, the most authentic appearance of the hotel is presented through structure, texture, and lighting, and it is just right to achieve a space experience that combines emotion and scenery, presenting a life of inaction that is integrated with nature.

Concise lines, high-quality materials, and artistic decoration all express the essence of space with low-key design. In addition to rest, the space is full of surprises, like a beating pulse with endless life.

The wood-colored frame under the lamp builds the social focus, and the earth-colored furnishings are embellished with phthalo blue, creating a delicate and multi-dimensional touch in a painstaking design.

The floor-to-ceiling windows are wide and open, making it possible to enjoy the world without leaving there, and the charm naturally connects the past and the present.

Wood and marble are combined in the bathroom which incorporates Chinese-style delicacy and feelings. It inherits a unified style and quality in shape, showing the natural integration of vision and texture. When night falls, the space rhythm and artistic conception are enriched, and the shimmering light constructs the experience and sincere praise of the beauty in life.

Under the balanced arrangement of Kenna Design, the classical order is inherited and integrated with the new knowledge of the times in an orderly manner, and the users and scenes in the hotel are overlapped and changed gradually, shaping the ancient charm that can be explored all year round. The design makes a hotel full of ancient charms rejuvenated, conveying the spirit of contemporary life.

Yesterday I worked on the patches, adding a highlight and a shade. I used the six Skittles-like Reaper Clear colors you see on the palette, plus Titanium White. The color that looks like black, is a mix of the red, phthalo green, and blue. I also did patterns for each patch color on paper as a reference to use while I paint. And that's what I'll be doing today on my stream.

Lair review for fitzfr

@fitzfr thanks for being my first customer!! i added a couple extra dragon reviews at the end as thanks~

as i was looking through your lair, wright was the first dragon that made me stop and go “OOOOH”. the color scheme you have going on here, with brown + grey + white/cream-ish + blue accents is gorgeously eye-catching, ESPECIALLY with the bluish tint at the tips of the auburn striation. the outfit, especially the dusty sage shawl and the candles, bring a lovely unity to the overall colors of the dragon and the outfit. my eyes still keep drawing to the blue accents. they’re so lovely next to these shades of brown, a really beautiful marrying of warm and cool. A+ dragon.

saanjh here is DEFINITELY an eyecatching boy. an absolutely GORGEOUS skincent, topped with a well-coordinated outfit. with skins/accents like these, sometimes an outfit with fewer apparel pieces is what the skincent needs to shine, and i definitely think this is one of those cases. the apparel pieces aren’t so numerous that they cover up the skincent, but there’s also just enough of them to add extra flair to the already gorgeous look. i ESPECIALLY love how the ivory smoke tert showing through matches the highlights on the skincent itself. that is some top-notch color coordination 👌

i may be a shadow kid, but i LOVE some well-done light aesthetic, and cairn’s definitely some good good light aesthetic. brown, yellow, plus a dash of sparkly navy blue is a color combo i had no idea could work--but with the accent, the silks, the umbral wreath and the book, it’s perfect. and of course, the light halo and the sundrapes bring it all back to that shiny shiny Light Aesthetic™. it’s kind of like a moon/sun night/day dichotomy going on with this dragon, like you have the sun and all the stars shining out from this dragon all at once.

the moment i got to dryad in your lair, i felt like i was wrapped in a fuzzy sweater looking at aspens in autumn and sipping a warm drink as I crunched leaves under my feet. these GORGEOUS fall colors are unbelievable, tbh. and i’d probably still say that even without the accent (but the accent is still a GOOD addition to that atmosphere). the accents of red in the outfit especially bring together that feeling of looking at color changing trees in autumn, but it’s such a warm homey feeling rather than a chilly sense of loss. the other thing it brings to mind is sitting in front of a fire after a cold day. i trust this dragon 10/10

this boy is exactly a good example of when “a lot going on” works out WELL! there’s a beautiful unity of color going on here with the browns, yellows, oranges, and creams all swirling around the center. the jester’s cape is an ESPECIALLY good choice with the little bells flying off of it,the accent is a bit more understated than some of the others i’ve seen so far, i’ve noticed, but it gives a good edge to the dragon, especially since you described him as a reader of bones in the bio. i like how the greyish tones on the cat actually match the bones in the accent?? such a tiny little color match that’s still so effective. also, the art in his bio is amazing too. overall excellent dragon. I love him.

now this is one mysterious boi. im always a really big sucker for this particular kind of blue/periwinkle hue, and i love dragons where they’re technically XYZ but two different colors still match comfortably, and this is definitely a good example of that. this dragon gives me the impression of being inside a cave filled with huge crystals, dark and silent and huge... i have no idea what lore you have planned for this dragon but the outfit you have on him plus the atmosphere of his colors just makes me feel like he’s strange and mysterious and possibly dangerous...that’s just my shot in the dark tho

red+white+black/dark grey is definitely a tried and true color combination, and this dragon is a beautiful example of that. i always thought the viper’s armor set had such an interesting and useful combo of colors, and i’ve seen it used to great effect, and you match it well with other red apparel here. and of course, it goes quite well with the sanguine scales. the little tiny dashes of green and yellow add a nice amount of variety to a small color scheme.

let me just start out with THE EYES AND THE LANTERNS GODDAMN! the way those two things match create a real visual punch on the overall color scheme of the dragon. they pop SO intensely that the very first thing your eyes move to is the dragon’s head and lanterns--and since the lanterns are in a triangle-ish shape it’s a very pleasing composition. then the accent leads your eyes away from his head and then spirals all the way around the rest of his body. such a pleasing dragon to look at. the cerise stained on top of the double phthalo is just unbelievably gorgeous as well: it’s just such a unique combo and it’s beautiful. A+++ usage of stained.

ohhh i could cry over this girl. i love f guardians so much and isra is just... heartbreakingly beautiful. purple and brown is a bit unorthodox but she WORKS IT... like flowers blooming out of turned earth, with a lovely dash of blue hues to really give that feeling of flowers an extra boost. i ESPECIALLY love how the lightning halo really brings out the light blue/cyan accent in the mulberry opal. the unity of colors is top notch. also, the lore in her bio? pure fucking poetry, my friend.

this dragon.... is a forest. and i love her. the forest green wraps match her secondary BEAUTIFULLY! and the light grey accents and the slight cream tint of the gem thief piece match well, like sunlight shining through canopy. the umber ripple is just rich, and the patterning on the ripple looks exactly like tree bark. i feel like if i touched her hide, her scales would feel like bark. the nature eyes are also a BIG plus, especially since that particular eye type really matches with the green in the flair scarf. beautiful girl.

last dragon will be this girl, because HOOOOOOO 👌 👌 👌  I am always a sucker for a good blue dragon and/or outfit, so my eyes were immediately drawn to the cloak, and then i saw the rest of her and i was smitten. blue on black+grey is a lovely combination, especially with purple accents. it’s like looking at the sky as it changes from dusk to night. especially with the sparkly look that comes from the cloak, the guise, AND the accent. this dragon is a beaitufl sparkly space dragon and i love her.

overall: your accent collection is impressive!! i found myself going “oh thats a fucking gorgeous accent” a LOT even if i didnt pick the dragon wearing said accent to review. you have VERY good taste when it comes to skins and accents. also, you’re good at putting together outfits in ways that don’t require a lot of apparel pieces? it makes it so you can appreciate the dragon’s genes and/or accent a lot easier. overall? good lair, good dragons! thanks again for being my first customer!!

One Circle

I gripped my steering wheel, as the slope took me down the winter hill to the river bottom and then up again, more momentum on the icy roads than I wanted. I did not dare to tap the brakes. I pulled into the parking space, that over years, became mine, and felt tension in my neck subside. Pushing against the door, I felt release, and headed down toward the pond. My feet are still cold, here, writing, and I am a part of the complexities of the circle, even as I have left the urban pond, sandwiched between what is now called Stoney Trail and Bishop O’Byrne High School in SW Calgary. (see fig. 1)

A murmuration of black Eastern Starlings created strong contrast against the primarily frozen landscape. The water, the circle that remained open, was of the deepest shade of Phthalo blue, and Buffleheads, both male and female, landed in great numbers as I made my way to the bush at the pond’s edge, its translucent yellow leaves, frozen. Enjoying the visit, I was reminded of how distinctly my perceptions evolved through a period of years, walking a circle at this specific place each day from 22 Sept. 2011 until 26 Jul. 2016. Kathleen Stewart, in her 2013 essay from the series, Studying Unformed Objects, addresses, in very specific ways, these experiences of place.

Fig.1. Southwest Ring Road Construction began 2016. Black dotted line to indicate one circle. Single black dot to indicate bush.  Screenshot from the cityonline.calgary.ca/GISMap/MainMap.

The social-material world as a composition is a world made of entities that are not simply present and knowable but prismatic, flickering, and gathered into lines, angles of light or motion, for people who are attuned to them, or identified with them, or hostile to their existence, or tired of them, or excited to see their outline on the horizon, or sharply excluded from them (Stewart 2010).

Digging deep into personal documentation; blog, journals, photographs, and poetry, I will begin my recollections of circling one pond in 2012.  By that time, my mother was suffering the end stages of Alzheimer’s disease.  I met her every evening, on Skype, at five o’clock, and took one screenshot some time during every conversation. These visits took place every day, without exception, for five years. I purchased my camera the summer of 2011, before my drive to visit my parents in Belleville, Ontario. While there, I took daily photographs of my mother’s hands.

Returned to Calgary, I explored the pond, as unformed object (Stewart), and thought that the act of walking this circle daily began with walking my dog, Max, a ‘prismatic’ (Stewart 2010) relationship and experience unto itself. Now I realize that, along with Max, the act of ritualistic and daily documentation of my mother’s hands over the course of two months, was leading to a transformative investigation. Something about this place provided an exploration of memory, ritual, and an almost obsessive compulsion to document.

The shape of this documentation included, daily, one poem and one photograph (see fig. 2) posted to my blog, sometimes, alongside a piece of music. In Sun Dazzle, written on 30 Jan. 2012 and in third person, initial sensory relationships are made.

Romp! Run! Go! Laughing woman and smiling dog, up to their knees, racing! Crunching through the snow’s skin, wind blown and captured in waves; the weatherman’s story from yesterday.

Muskrat, perching on pond’s edge, dark form instantly sliding into water at the burst of their movement. Energy is joy exploding!

Blue sky stretches canvas on a white sea of ice. Yellow-gold grasses etching a circle around the pond. The dog following, explores hidden places.

Sparkle. Dazzle. Squinting, tears roll down her cheeks, light echoes on everything. She cries for the beauty of it all. [1]

Fig. 2: Moors 30 Jan. 2012, Accessed 22 Oct. 2020

Rituals of walking began with very general observations of my natural surroundings, but from the beginning, I felt that this was somehow magical or just-for-me. I rarely, at this point, noticed anyone else. I noticed birds as a general category. At that time, I did not make distinctions between different species. Later, I saw sparrows, ducks and geese, a progression after months of seeing birds.

Patterns of documentation began to emerge, particularly on themes of light and atmosphere, water reflections and wind. I captured a series of photographs of clouds reflected in pond water and created my first slide show, watching with great enthusiasm, back home, at my desk, while the series scrolled past, again and again.

Years later, I would discover, not only an interest in documentation and recording, but also, the collection and creation of objects in series, series of journals, green glass vases, photo books, porcelain hotel creamers and photograph archives. Just as Kyo Maclear, in her book, Birds Art Life, refers to spark birds (113), I received new revelations (sparks) on a very regular basis while walking one circle.

The habit of writing and posting poetry, images and music was not sustained, but became intermittent. This practice saw me transition from wide-eyed observer to steward.  By February of 2012, I knew the difference between a Ruddy Duck and a Red Necked Grebe. My language around bird and plant species was becoming more specific. I poured over new birding books in the evenings. Instead of capturing vistas, I was zooming in and trying to focus and make-clear the subjects of my photographs. I was capturing strings of video and I was noticing my evolving knowledge around the camera. It became a treasured object, not merely functional.

Fig. 3 Moors, Findings: 20 Tim Horton’s drink cups, with plastic lids, 14 plastic bags of various sizes, 15 pieces of industrial insulation of the foam variety (likely blown from the construction area, an extension of the sports center), a large sized plastic bucket from the same site, burned book pages, fast-food containers and hamburger wraps, two bags of dog poop and a large purple plastic hoop. 28 Feb. 2020, Accessed 22 Oct. 2020.

What became evident through the camera lens was the fact that this was not a pristine environment. I took a photograph of a red-eyed, Black-Crowned Night Heron and arrived home to find, visible on my computer screen, the wondrous bird standing on rounded stones and a Tim Horton’s cup. I became hostile (Stewart 2010) when I noticed the human impact on my self-constructed and utopic experience. Like my growing knowledge about birds, I was noticing this negative relationship. (see fig. 3) It seemed insurmountable and a feeling of helplessness came with one circle. I decided to fill a large bag with litter while walking daily, to write about it, and archive possible shifts in the aesthetic of the place. I had conversations with people, those teaching classes in outdoor education, City of Calgary Parks Management teams, politicians, seniors participating in outdoor exercise, homeless people and business owners in big-box and fast-food outlets. I became more a citizen than a tourist. Interactions through phone calls, electronic mail and even business meetings, stretched the unformed object (Stewart), one circle, and it became both political and social, as well as spiritual in its being.

While human connection and communications were sometimes disappointing, many were incredibly positive. I met a man who was sleeping under the stars through warm weather.  Frank had plans to move to Vancouver for winter. He overlooked the flats, daily, and drank six beer while watching me pick. At the end of each circle, we exchanged pleasantries and then he passed me, each day, his six cans knotted up in a plastic bag. He always expressed his gratitude. Over time and together, we named the location, Frank’s Flats and soon, people in public positions began to refer to this location as Frank’s Flats. I was interested in how access to human connection contributed to an act of naming.

One other noteworthy human connection involved the manifestation of a constructed relationship. This construction surfaced out of the next series of investigations while circling the pond.

On 8 Oct. 2015, I began to capture an Instagram photograph of one bush, the same bush, every day. It is situated at the edge of the pond. (see figs. 1 and 4) Weather, time of day and atmosphere were impacting the appearance of the bush and so, I logged these conditions as a brief caption on my posts. Published to Instagram and then, Facebook, the bush became a familiar character until the final day, July 26, 2016. Friends ‘liked’ the bush/image and wrote comments over almost 300 days. An artist-friend in one of these forums, after some months, named the bush, Bianca. Toward the end of 2015, I noticed a young man slept on cardboard and under an evergreen tree and two sleeping bags. A shopping cart contained his possessions. We never spoke, but he was aware of me and I, him. Moving into December, I decorated the bush, adding ribbon first, then ornaments and finally, solar-powered Christmas lights. The young man would be able to see the bush from above the flats. I filled his cart with gifts, warm socks, hoodie, scarf and thick work mitts, chocolate, and candy canes. That Christmas I felt connected in a new way to this place, through sentiment. The ornaments remained, lighting up the landscape until Epiphany that year.

My last Instagram photograph was snapped the day before my mother’s birthday and minutes before I headed for the Trans Canada highway. My mother died in May of 2013.  I did not want to circle the pond on July 27, 2016 nor did I wish to archive the bush.  I wanted to be in the van and driving toward my father.

Returned to Calgary, that autumn I hired a videographer to archive Max and I through the seasons. While filming, I struggled with the destruction of surrounding ecosystems and the impact of the Southwest Calgary Ring Road development and so, the following spring, I left this circle for another on the edge of the Bow River. I used references from the pond to create paintings in my studio and these art works continue to this day, recently taking a new direction, in the world of pandemic.

In series, I am layering reverse transfers of the Instagram bush images onto panels, in chronological order, beginning with the practice on 8 Oct., five years after the first Instagram photo was taken.  These images are placed one on top of another and create a container for memory. An Instagram account has been opened (see fig. 5) to record this progress.

The pond, Frank’s Flats, the bush, all remain forms, but they have also become vivid constructs, numerous material objects that push up against my imagination and likely, always will.  Christopher Witmore, in his essay, Archaeology of the New Materialisms (221), quotes Rosemary Joyce in What Eludes Speech.

Then describe and describe some more—all this descriptive detail one can unpack later, if there is time, in a space where hesitation is possible. Dozens of hours of ambient video walks along routes of transhumance, along paths, streets, walls, or through museums; video diaries of those confounding moments of contact with weird stuff will pay off later. Still, anything we do in documentation is always a translation. We can only manifest something of the style of things; much will always remain beyond reach. There is always a trade-off. There are always gains and losses. And there is always more to be said and done (Joyce 2011).

Flame Headcanons

@i-w-p-chan​ asked me to explain some xover thoughts between Katekyo Hitman Reborn flames & Boku no Hero Academia characters, so buckle up ‘cuz it’s a long post under the read more! Headcanon, ho!

To explain my numbers, I gotta explain a buncha other shit too, lmao.

So basically I got some inspo from micronecro way back when (the post here on my tumblr if you're curious) that Earth Flames & whatnot were all combination Flames. Swamp is Storm+Sun, Forest Sun+Lightning, Mountain Lightning+Rain, Desert Rain+Mist, Glacier Mist+Cloud, & that last mysterious flame being named Geyser for Cloud+Storm.

I also wanted a third part of Flames for the water aspect (Earth is obvs earth, Sky is a combo of fire & air for skies themselves), so I also came up with Ocean Flames & that entire set. The feeling was only reinforced by an offhand comment by nordiamus over on FFN in their Game On xover, really.

So if Sky is the most purely Flame set & Earth is combo, shouldn't Ocean also be some sort of combo? But if the Sky is so common & Earth heard of but not really heard of, then wouldn't Ocean be even more rare?

I eventually settled on a natural 3:4:5 ratio, but to have a ratio I needed to have numbers, so I had to math shit out & also needed to have shorthand symbols so I didn't inevitably confuse myself while making sure they actually showed up in both Notepad & Excel, colors for much the same, & characteristics for the Flames themselves too. Took a long while, but I got everything settled out.

I chose 108 for the point system because it's already a trope, lol. I also made use of Umei-no Mai's Black Sky's headcanon that you actually needed around 5% of each Flame to develop properly, though I had to use it as 6% b/c the math would've become bad math otherwise. This means any singular Flame can only be a value between 6 to 76 out of 108 (6-70%), b/c there’s gotta be at least 6 points (6%) on everything. Here’s a handy chart:

Yellow is where I folded percentages together, red is the tens on the point side, with green the tens on the percent side. A general guideline I use is that you need at least 18% to produce a visible Flame. You can do it with smaller percentages down to 10%, but it requires exceptional control & possibly small reserves (which can also be called depth). (this scenario would also produce a functional sky but it’d be a fairly weak one since it was both not activated as such and not a full state of being for them).

Dying Will Flames of the Sky: NAME: hex code, attribute, symbol (reason if needed) (the link has interesting info), type of resolve (HC from Gokurdera being able to light 5 Flames but not all at once); appearance

STORM: #EB1C23 brilliant red, disintegration, ♋ (looks like hurricane cell; I'm aware it's actually the symbol for Cancer), to take down; low-heat smoldering, smokey upcurls & tongues

SKY: #FFA719 vivid gamboge, harmony, at least 10% (11/108) on all, ☰ (this the trigram symbol for heaven you see), to keep/stay; most like fire w/ flares, wisps, & overall more ethereal movement

SUN: #FFC70F amber, activation, ☀, to improve; like starlight in that it’s constant jetting outwards, more a shining than a straight-up fire

LIGHTNING/THUNDER: #23B04B malachite, hardening, ϟ (this is the only lightning-shaped symbol to show up tbh, it's technically the lowercase Greek letter for Q), to defend; electricity w/ small arcs between branches

RAIN: #99D8E8 cerulean, tranquility, ☂, to slow down; pool water with refraction in slow-motion, more round & globular than a fire except it gives off (what it’s user thinks of as ‘relaxing’) heat

MIST: #3F49CC phthalo blue, construction, ♒ (I couldn't find anything that was explicitly 'fog' or whatever, so I had to make do with whatever worked; it's the symbol for Aquarius, though it also symbolizes wind which is the next best, since mist is a groundbound cloud anyways), to confuse; wispy, almost entirely see through, with off center diffusion of color, the palest of the Flames

CLOUD: #A249A3 moderate magenta, propagation, ☁, to overtake; like puffs of smoke with a natural reach of twice the length of everything else in the Sky set (whole hand length minimum)

Dying Will Flames of the Ocean/Sea: NAME: hex code, attribute, symbol (reason if needed); appearance. Funfact: this set has the most desaturated colors as though it’s deeper in the sea, though if you go for max 240-value saturation they’re still discernible from the other sets.

WHIRLPOOL: #DE7C66 light scarlet, combustion (rapid burning), ☁/♋/☀, ♓ (Pisces symbol, yes, but fish live in pools; also what the fuck, I see literal fish as the symbol everywhere else but this fucking site); elongated fingers of flame that seem to spin or spiral their entire length rather than just the tips like Storm does, like screws or a helix

OCEAN: #FF7700 vivid orange, encompass, 12% (13/108) on all with remainder divided, ☵ (the trigram for water yo; easily distinguishable from both Sky & Earth, even has a mini horizon on there to make a "between the Earth & the Heavens" metaphor); heavy fire, somewhat similar to a tri-pronged crown or W that flutters like it's in the wind

VOLCANO: #C2AC1D moderate gold, acidification (pH cycling), ♋/☀/ϟ, ☈ (the symbol for thunderstorms which I find appropriate, b/c volcanoes can actually spawn these); smokey & partially see thru w/ green halo edging, fuzzy-looking around the edges, tho for a better visual of what I mean, look up fire opals

CURRENT: #85B357 moderate chartreuse, magnetism, ☀/ϟ/☂, ☄ (actually symbolizes comets, but it's theorized comets brought water to Earth anyway); clumps together, lengths loop each other to form a field, look at your hand in the process of turning into a fist, it’s like that

WATERFALL: #306D78 arctic blue, binding, ϟ/☂/♒, ♆ (fuck yeah, the symbol for Neptune sure, but rivers were his children &/or domain as all rivers lead to the ocean); elastic & flexible with no purely set expression beyond naturally long reach (the longest Flame overall)

MOON: #9999CC deep periwinkle, reflection, ☂/♒/☁, ☾ (obvious); moves like a shadow where there’s three or more overlapping areas w/ a natural wave pattern, if you’ve ever seen the sun during a heatwave it’s like where it wobbles due to the thermal air currents so the sun itself doesn’t look like a full disc

TIDE: #CFA7C3 light fuchsia, expansion, ♒/☁/♋, ♎ (the symbol for Libra & the alchemical symbol for the subliminal; also looks like the moon rising from the sea); light, aggressively more magenta when hyper-layered, leaves afterimages like when staring into a bright light, strangely behaves like a less intense Sun Flame where it’s an overall but softer & rounder glow rather than jetting out

Dying Will Flames of the Earth/Soil: NAME: hex code, attribute, symbol (reason if needed); appearance

SWAMP: #FFB482 tangelo, fermentation (living things), 28% (30) ♋/☀ each, ☣ (biohazard was a perfect fit); almost flat but highly agitated w/ irregular flares & flickers, highest temp behind Earth in this set, technically shortest Flame at half a finger height (knuckle to first joint)

EARTH: #BD3900 vermillion, gravity, 14% (15) all, ☷ (trigram for earth); dense & exceptionally rounded fire, appearing like a split V flame that doesn’t move about as much as an actual fire, more pulled together

FOREST: #A6DE5D electric lime, growth, 23% (25) ☀/ϟ each, ♣ (club suit b/c it looks like a little tree); thin, finely branched & erratic fire, with unpredictable sparks

MOUNTAIN: #62BD8E spring green, compression, 28% (30) ϟ/☂ each, ▲ (it's a triangle, but it doubles as a mountain symbol on maps); almost opaque, w/ a fat bottom and narrow top (shaped like a deflated balloon if such a thing floated in your palm) & slow sinuous motion (the widest Flame at the base at around twice the width of the palm holding it, picture lava lamp wax)

DESERT: #1C6BFF cobalt, emergence (big patterns that appear b/c of small things, ex. ripples in sand from wind movement pushing grains around, or the uniqueness of snowflakes) (also influenced by InsaneScriptist's One Piece/KHR xover fic Xanxus' Adventures in Parenthood Piracy where Desert flames are many illusions stacked onto each other), 32% (35) ☂/♒ each, ✿ (black florette b/c I can't really see the white one, & desert flowers are very pretty); perfectly transparent but for a tint, warps the coloring immediately around it into the blue spectrum, a place where it’s just inexplicably blue above where it’s being held, like staring into a mirror reflecting itself greener and greener, but if made visible to others it might give an appearance of sand because it’s also not a very “even” or “smooth” Flame

GLACIER: #C68CFF light violet, fortification taking the form of crystals as it’s just that intense, 37% (40) ♒/☁ each, ♦ (diamond suit b/c that's a basic crystal shape, also to not leave Forest as a card by itself); upside down kite shape w/ barbed &  jagged edges like frost, not see through like you almost expect tho it’s the whitest one in general w/ bright vivid color at the edge

GEYSER: #99007D red plum, extension, 32% (35) ☁/♋ each, ♨ (hot springs are close enough to geysers for me to the connection); like heated water complete w/ dense steaming, and the leading edge even redder

Have a handy little mnemonic pic to remember how to get what.

And just who can forget Night Flames either? I headcanon that Night was one of the 3 human Flames before the Earthlings like Kawahira were forced to pass the other 3 sets onto humans to sustain life; Snow, Void, & Night were all buried under and/or split between the newer sets, which is why no one ever pulls them forth until Bermuda has his Flames torn out by his Pacifier being taken by Checkerface.

SNOW: silvery-white, absorption (base reason for why humans can become all sorts of creatures, but never back), prevalent ☀ &/or ☂ &/or ☁, ☊ (ascending node, alchemical symbol for sublimation). Appearance: aerogel if it was fire shaped, glowing around the edges like a halo, pale silver-ish, a defined or captured mist spray.

VOID: (perfect) gray, preservation, ☰ &/or ☵ &/or ☷, ⊕ (alchemical symbol for verdigris, symbol for Earth the planet). This was basically the first version of Skies, Oceans, & Earths for humans. Appearance: a blooming iridescence, like summoning a faint rainbow upon a slick surface but in petaled flower silhouette (inherent control of it’s user imparts the number of petals).

NIGHT: black*, perpetuity (grim determination to do this ONE thing & damn the consequences, to carry on), prevalent ♋ &/or ϟ &/or ♒, ☋ (descending node, alchemical symbol for purification). Appearance: invisible unless moving, black & heavy looking when it does almost like a smear or smudge, with a type of simmering heat to it, an absence of light (resulting in a clear pacifier). *You know the video game thing/unresolvable YouTube video error where it’s supposed to be dark but it’s actually just a dark grey that feels creepy to look at too long? That color.

(I got a lot, seriously a bunch of other shit attributed to each Flame too, but this thing is already long enough. If I get interest, I’ll just make another post).

This has Earth-set Flames absurdly specialist but still very possible by accident, while leaving the Ocean-set harder to achieve any other way but naturally feeling the resolve for each separate component Flame. It also makes Oceans & Earths fundamentally Skies, just denser or even-keeled if you can get that. (compare phases of matter as gas [always chaotic], liquid [clumping together but still fairly energetic], and solid [at least mostly rigid in state]).

You also don’t need to be part of the same set to be considered an element, either... folding down anyway. A fully realized Earth could only truly bond w/ only Earth-set Flames, an Ocean could bond w/ Ocean-set Flames, but a Sky could bond w/ anyone by latching onto just one Flame, disregarding if it’s part of a composite Flame. Earth and/or Ocean Flames might identify more as a Sky than their ‘proper’ label as a matter of self-preservation as their elements are so rare, so would feel more at home pulling in Sky elements rather than Ocean or Earth elements. (not that it’d stop them if given the choice).

This all neatly dovetails into headcanon Flames for Class 1A for BNHA, arranged by set then seat.

From the Sky-set, you got:

Asui Tsuyu: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 37=34%; ϟ: 11=10%; ☂: 37=34%; ♒: 6=6%; ☁: 11=10%; (☀, ☂). You can’t tell me she talks with that huge tongue without having to Actively shoot it, right? Rain because she’s just so naturally calm.

Mashirao Ojiro (6): ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 9=8%; ϟ: 9=8%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 6=6%; ☁: 72=66%; (☁). Because he seems kinda distant to me like most of KHR Clouds seem to be in theory, idk why. I do think he’s cool tho.

Kaminari Denki: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 36=33%; ϟ: 24=22%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 6=6%; ☁: 30=28%; (☀, ϟ, ☁). Sun b/c his lightning is actually yellow so I theorize he’s actually Propagating his natural Activated bioelectricity via Cloud, but there’s enough Lightning to leave him intact doing so and lend his bioelectricity it’s more elongated shape. A further headcanon is that his family’s lightning quirks all effectively have different colors.

Kirishima Eijirou: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 13=12%; ϟ: 48=44%; ☂: 17=16%; ♒: 8=7%; ☁: 16=15%; (ϟ). That’s some classic Lightning right there.

Jiro Kyouka: ♋: 9=8%; ☀: 18=17%; ϟ: 18=17%; ☂: 14=13%; ♒: 9=8%; ☁: 40=37%; (☁). To make the sound of her heartbeat exponentially louder like a boss. Also introduces sensitivity problems.

Tokoyami Fumikage: ♋: 22=20%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 26=24%; ♒: 40=37%; ☁: 8=7%; (♋, ☂, ♒). Mist to materialize Dark Shadow, Rain to be dense enough to interact w/ which when paired w/ Storm fucks w/ him when Dark Shadow gets too powerful (ie overwhelming him & largely destructive).

fuck Mineta, let’s replace him

I can’t believe I have shamed myself into including him

Mineta Minoru: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 30=28%; ϟ: 7=6%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 26=24%; ☁: 33=30%; (☀, ♒, ☁). While he can inherently multiply what’s essentially wads of his hair, Mist is what imparts it’s special properties (otherwise he’d stick to his pillows & his clothes would catch on when he gets dressed), & Sun lets him naturally produce more. This is where overuse comes into play; too much Sun Flame in too short a time frame splits the skin, though thankfully the bloodflow washes out anything that might’ve evolved into cancer cells before it begins healing. I figure if he trains more & CAREFULLY, he might start using Sun to more enhance Cloud allowing him more stamina w/ his quirk.

From the Ocean-set, you get:

Ashido Mina: ♋: 30=28%; ☀: 20=19%; ϟ: 25=23%; ☂: 10=9%; ♒: 15=14%; ☁: 8=7%; (♋, ☀, ϟ) / (☈): she adjusts pH to get what she wants. It’s fair chance she was born with near-Sky values.

Iida Tenya: ♋: 19=18%; ☀: 21=19%; ϟ: 19=18%; ☂: 7=6%; ♒: 22=20%; ☁: 20=19%; (♋, ☀, ϟ, ♒, ☁) / (♓, ♎w). Combustion engine, baby! He’s exploding things to go faster. His family’s been cultivating this particular quirk so long his line is close to producing Skies!

Uraraka Ochako: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 22=20%; ϟ: 23=21%; ☂: 24=22%; ♒: 19=18%; ☁: 14=13%; (☀, ϟ, ☂, ♒) / (☄, ♆w, ☾). Manipulating magnetism to cancel out a lot of the gravity by making it attracted to itself & only itself so repelling everything not itself, & reflection to drop them back into gravity by touching her own fingertips. Her Cloud attribute isn’t actually able to manifest outside of her body b/c it lacks outward-manifesting strength; it makes up for this in being able to apply Moon w/ extra depth & precision. The depth part is what makes her nauseous. She’s actually got a hidden attribute in Waterfall/binding! She might be able to functionally (seek a) target where she drops stuff later on if she discovers it.

Mezou Shouji: ♋: 22=20%; ☀: 12=11%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 28=26%; ☁: 34=31%; (♋, ♒, ☁) / (♎). Expansion materializes new body parts with the help of Mist, Cloud to shorthand remember bodyparts he’s already got, & Storm to reabsorb them when they’re no longer needed.

Hagakure Tooru: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 36=33%; ♒: 30=28%; ☁: 24=22%; (☂, ♒, ☁) / (☾). She’s just straight up reflecting most if not all light that hits her body, which is why you can see her clothing but not her. HC she’s got excellent night vision; you might see a bit of eyeshine even!

Hmmm... for funsies, how about:

Shinsou Hitoshi: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 36=33%; ☂: 30=28%; ♒: 24=22%; ☁: 6=6%; (ϟ, ☂, ♒) / (♆). He takes control by binding his will on top of yours, like puppet strings. He reroutes your actions to his command w/ a combination of redirecting your natural electrical signals in your brain (which is why getting jarred will return your action to you) & Mist enabling him to do it in ways that won’t get detected until he does it. He’d be unstoppable if he ever worked out how to do it without the invitation; though as it’s partly psychological he might stop himself from ever overcoming that limitation.

And lastly from the Earth-set, you have:

Aoyama Yuuga: ♋: 30=28%; ☀: 29=27%; ϟ: 28=26%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 8=7%; ☁: 7=6%; (♋, ☀, ϟ) / (☈) / (☣). He’s fermenting the bacteria in his stomach by changing the acidity of his stomach acids whenever he shoots his laser. Boy’s gotta eat if he wants it to recharge.

Kouda Kouji: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 37=34%; ϟ: 37=34%; ☂: 11=10%; ♒: 11=10%; ☁: 6=6%; (☀, ϟ) / x / (♣). He can communicate w/ living things b/c he’s basically making them recognize him as a friend (not that he doesn’t make friends with them anyway, tho).

Satou Rikidou: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 22=20%; ϟ: 32=30%; ☂: 30=28%; ♒: 11=10%; ☁: 7=6%; (☀, ϟ, ☂) / ☄w / (▲). He compresses sugar to allow his body to process it quicker without it having to be digested first.

Sero Hanta: ♋: 35=32%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 7=6%; ♒: 6=6%; ☁: 48=44%; (♋, ☁) / x / (♨). He produces something sticky then extends it very far.

Yaoyorozu Momo: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 7=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 35=32%; ♒: 35=32%; ☁: 19=18%; (☂, ♒, ☁) / ☾w / (✿). This is obvious, but I will say she gives whatever she makes true form because she’s using both knowledge to give it form & real energy derived from her body to give it material, which is why nothing dissolves away once she turns away from it.

You might have noticed a few missing. Here’s Todoroki w/ some calculations for his family members! Yeah!

Enji Todoroki/Endeavor: ♋: 49=45%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 25=23%; ♒: 9=8%; ☁: 13=12%; (♋, ☂). Storm because fire (named Hellfire because it curls strangely & the fact it could burn everything), Rain for upping temperature by effecting density (meaning a thinner stream of fire).

Touya/Dabi: ♋: 37=34%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 17=16%; ♒: 9=8%; ☁: 33=30%; (♋, ☁), Storm has the lowest energy & temperature imo, and Cloud’s b/c he can make a LOT of fire; I HC it’s more than Dumpster Fire could manage (that guy’s more of a precision over power kinda guy Flame wise, even if still pretty powerful). This Todoroki bro is just that good with his quirk, to produce blue fire by pure willpower.

Fuyumi: ♋: 13=12%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 7=6%; ☂: 34=31%; ♒: 29=27%; ☁: 19=18%; (☂, ♒, ☁) / ♎w, ☾w. She’s totally a Rain, you can fight me on this. Her quirk’s gotta be something Asshole would consider useless for Hero work, so I’ll venture it might be Chill: temperature manipulation with a leaning towards cooler temps. If she ever became truly aware of the possibilities she could conjure, she’d obliterate him. Have fun sparking fire when everything refuses to heat up, bitch, lmao.

Natsuo: ♋: 8=7%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 13=12%; ☂: 16=15%; ♒: 49=45%; ☁: 16=15%; (♒). Mostly so every single Todoroki has their own major element, though it’s still an entirely possible outcome from his parents. I don’t think he’s publicly quirkless because if that was a possibility his father would’ve gotten a new wife/brood mare b/c he’s THAT asshole. However, his Mist is strong enough that even if he was, he could’ve become an Active Flame user at a young age, and Mist’s pale blue color and gaseous form (if seen) might’ve made him seem like another temperature manipulator, thus also useless for his father’s ambitions. If he’s the type, he might be using it as a more physical support for himself, such as running longer or lifting more without injury than should be possible for someone who doesn’t exercise, that kind of thing.

Shouto: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 42=38%; ☁: 42=38%; (♒, ☁) / x / (♦). He’s the ultimate ice maker, & the fire side is just genetics making a general fire. If he ever became able to use Flames instead of fire, the fire would instead be a violet color rather than the yellowish one that it is now. Mist & Cloud are higher than his mother’s due to some very mild combination with his father’s values. It also makes his ice & consequently his fire VERY strong, considering every scrap not needed by the others is fed into his ice.

Rei: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 7=6%; ☂: 9=8%; ♒: 40=37%; ☁: 40=37%; (♒, ☁) / x / (♦). Ice, but a bit more spread out for variety. I’ve given her a common surname Yukimura, 雪村 "snow village" that alludes to her ice quirk, Flame, & the fact she seems to have had little support over the years.

Here’s Bakugou & Izuku!

Bakugou Katsuki: ♋: 30=28%; ☀: 30=28%; ϟ: 13=12%; ☂: 13=12%; ♒: 11=10%; ☁: 11=10%; ☰, (♋, ☀) / x / (☣). A first generation Sky. Fermentation applies to various bacteria that’s present in his sweat b/c they live on his skin, with Storm killing them & Sun activating whatever is left behind. He doesn’t always use Storm, which just leaves Sun sparking his palms, a holdover from his father also being a Swamp user.

Midoriya Izuku: ♋: 18=17%; ☀: 14=13%; ϟ: 26=24%; ☂: 14=13%; ♒: 14=13%; ☁: 22=20%; ☰, (ϟ, ☁) / ☵, (♓, ♎). A legacy Sky from his mother’s side (she’s an Earth as is most of the family on that half of his tree), though it’s completely chance he managed to be an Ocean b/c the values his father had lowered just the right higher Earth stats his mother had. Lightning & Cloud have high values enough to be secondaries, which actually shows up whenever he uses One for All which is naturally propagating to begin with. He’s got the proper Lightning appearing & everything. Whirlpool & Tide are an accident of numbers but also greatly appreciated by enabling better control? allocation? of One for All’s power.

Here’s everyone else who didn’t fit anything else above, like teachers & secondary characters!

Midoriya Inko: ♋: 18=17%; ☀: 15=14%; ϟ: 15=14%; ☂: 18=17%; ♒: 21=19%; ☁: 21=19%; ☰, (♒, ☁) / ☵, (♓, ♆) / ☷. She pulls things like gravity, ‘nuff said.

Hisashi Midoriya: ♋: 19=18%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 31=29%; ☂: 7=6%; ♒: 22=20%; ☁: 23=21%; (♋, ϟ, ♒, ☁) / ♎w. Aways from being a Sky, but any potential offspring have a fairly good chance of being one with the right spouse/Inko. His ϟ deals with plasma, ☁ gives some projection so he doesn’t light himself on fire, ♒ a bit of fireproofing to the body parts & organs involved in fire-beathing, & ♋ some true (excuse the pun) fire power to what he can disintergrate w/ the fire produced. End result is a whitish-yellow flame between 2,200 °F (1,200 °C) & 2,400 °F (1,300 °C). I HC that he doesn’t have a very far reach with his fire-breath, about an arm length maybe unless he’s so emotional he lights some Cloud so it’s a full body length or longer. I also HC he took his wife’s name when they married, so I use Teiko (醍醐 "Good liquor, fine wine; clarified butter, ghee," w/ a pun of 大悟 "enlightenment") as his previous surname.

Aizawa Shouta: ♋: 20=19%; ☀: 7=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 29=27%; ♒: 25=23%; ☁: 21=19%; (♋, ☂, ♒, ☁) / (☾). He’s sending a cancellation wave (the reverse reflection, no?) but the pale color of Moon is overpowered by his visible Storm which gives his eyes a visage of red & makes them dry af. He releases it in waves w/ Rain being the largest component meaning it floats his hair & gives the appearance of being underwater. Doubly powerful in that Rain, Mist, & Cloud are divisible by both points and percentage.

Camie: ♋: 7=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 21=19%; ☂: 30=28%; ♒: 38=35%; ☁: 6=6%; (ϟ, ☂, ♒) / ♆w / (✿). I made her a Desert rather than just a regular Mist because I had another calculation, tbh. I also figure Desert would be more fitting since while dramatic she’s also fairly chill and likes a good laugh, & Mist always seemed like a “effect self” more than “effect others” kind of utilization (not that it’s not possible or anything, obvs). Waterfall is for when she finally gets that little niggle in her technique that will allow her to greatly expand the range she currently has, as in “will hold until she lets it drop” kinda range.

Hawks: ♋: 6=6%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 49=45%; ☂: 14=13%; ♒: 26=24%; ☁: 7=6%; (ϟ, ♒). His wings can do and handle some crazy shit because they are made of reinforced (ϟ) crazy shit (♒), and that’s just how he is.

Villains!

All For One: ♋: 11=10%; ☀: 19=18%; ϟ: 20=19%; ☂: 12=11%; ♒: 35=32%; ☁: 11=10%; ☰, (☀, ϟ, ♒). Mist for it being a mostly mental power for all that it effects his body, Sun to pull up the right genetics configuration FOR the quirks he’s taken, Lightning so his actual DNA is protected or lets him revert back to his own.

Shigaraki Tomura/Shimura Tenko: ♋: 71=65%; ☀: 6=6%; ϟ: 6=6%; ☂: 6=6%; ♒: 8=7%; ☁: 11=10%; (♋). Simple. Got deep reserves & relatively high quirk stamina from Nana's side thru his father.

Since it’s a common headcanon that Skies will vie for elements until they got a full arc & put themselves against other Skies in order to get the ones they want, Bakugou & Izuku were put into an instinctive conflict when Bakugou got access to his quirk. Oceans Encompass so Izuku seriously just did want to be friends for a good while for all he wasn’t Active, but Bakugou doesn’t or didn’t get that because he saw Izuku as a potential or possibly actual disruption to his own Harmony.

And since to have Flames the Earthlings need to have existed, I’m proposing that the Trinisette was disrupted by whatever, such as a mission for potential Arcobaleno resulting in all of them dying with/without ever bonding to the Pacifiers or Kawahira dying either before Bermuda could come into being/Bermuda got a lucky shot in before abruptly staying dead from backlash, & quirks are what appeared from Flames spiraling out of control. Flame distribution is fairly unique even among close family members, resulting in equally unique is similar quirks.

BNHA-verse has gotta prepare for a big storm, is what I’m saying.

+edit: Maybe All for One was one of the first Quirked people to be born to that first disruption wave & discovered he could take Quirks, went out of his way to get powerful ‘Quirks’ first (or what he thought of as Quirks/super powers, but might have been Flame abilities specialized or not), resulting in a shortage of any potential emergency Arcobaleno if Kawahira didn’t die off suddenly.

I decided to approach copper painting a little differently this time and to focus on process first instead of how the piece may appear.  

When working with copper it is important to keep the material in mind as it extremely reactive to what is applied to the surface and how. This time I decided to have chance control how I would approach the work. By sanding the surface first and then exposing it to bleach I created this splotchy pattern that can be observed in the copper (see second image). From there it became this almost ‘paint by numbers game’ of applying paint according to the shapes observed on the surface. In this way I would be giving up control to what the work would appeared as. 

But obviously I was able to gain back some control with my choice in colour and where they were placed. The colours here were the same used in my previous copper painting, here the core colour was the greenish colour I created and mixing that particular colour with the original colours (phthalo green, prussian blue, cadmium red medium, lemon yellow, cadmium yellow deep hue and titanium white) used to create it.

Thus was my attempt into being as reductive as possible.

streams twice per week on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10 o’clock relevant time which is let’s have a look at that’s three o’clock GMT so this is the golf green gold undertaking and i hope that you are participating in the green gold undertaking I’ve acquired my green gold correct here and this portray goes to be a luna moth i’ll be using paint brushes I’ve received some residences and a few chisel blenders and a liner brush to sign my identify and that is all acrylic paint so I’ve blended up somewhat titanium white and a few inexperienced gold and now we are going to put this over onto the canvas so the green gold challenge is a enjoyable little assignment that I created and all of the persons who are collaborating and anyone can take part you just put the phrases green gold task into your title and upload your video onto your onto your channel and then the entire videos that i will to find that have the hashtag inexperienced gold assignment or have the words green gold undertaking in the title are going to go into a huge playlist and if you want more understanding about how you can participate i’ve a brief two-minute video on my channel that offers all of the small print of how to do that and for this video right here i am gonna this is my entry for the task and i proposal it will be relatively enjoyable to color the luna moth and i have received just a pencil simply did just a little graphite sketch one luna moth that’s in full flight and an additional little guy off to the facet here who’s just type of twisting and gliding and that’s whatever that’s very characteristic of the luna moth they’re most effective found in North the united states and after they fly they’ve these form of streamers that you see at the backside these long twisting streamers and when they’re flying they’ll twist their physique and twist these streamers so that they are able to confuse their major the foremost predator who is a bat so bats love to devour luna moths it seems that they are very tasty to them and so the luna moth has acquired some these little streamers that it uses to confuse the bat so it is not particularly certain which approach it can be flying and then the luna moth also has these form of neat there are two sets of almost like a false eye or something like a little eye shaped pattern and the luna moth is sometimes called the American Moon Moth so I concept it would be quality to place a moon in my painting just compositionally and then additionally to style of symbolize the title of the of the luna moth and luna referring of direction to the word moon or lunar and i’m just doing hanging a little titanium mild on that get the moon started so here is a little phthalo blue purple coloration and i inspiration I would get the get the sky began with that only a flat American Painter brush and we are going to just begin to dam at the hours of darkness inky sky so luna moths you really simplest see them lively at night time they’re nocturnal and the adult the adult on no account eats once it can be an adult it comes out of its cocoon so at butterflies have chrysalis is and moths have a cocoon so this little cocoon they when they may be little caterpillars they like to devour leaves from the birch timber and from walnut bushes another exceptional bushes and timber they usually they will go into their cocoon and then when they come out they simply reside for one week and so they don’t eat the entire time that they’re a a moth and in its grownup type they’re simply looking to find other moths to mate with and to proceed the lifestyles cycle and the physique of the moth is a type of a white fuzzy furry style of a factor and then they have got these amazing kind of simply shiny gentle limey gold green green gold kind of wings I feel they’re just rather lovely they may be also very tremendous they’re they are able to be as much as four and a half of inches throughout which is lovely significant from off so simply utilising the comb to take that colour and simply get it proper up alongside the edge there we go and i want the moth the smaller moth that i need it to show up in the distance more so and then have the focal point be extra the larger moth and i would like this smaller moth i am gonna paint him with some softer edges to make him believe like he’s receding and i am also gonna be eager about the moon and portray that with a tender part so that it also feels it can be find it irresistible’s more within the distance now this colour that you just see that’s been painted over the complete canvas as yellow ochre and that i tone all of my canvases good perhaps not a hundred percent the vast majority of my canvases I begin with a wash of yellow ochre if for some rationale i have a canvas I must have a white history or something like that but that’s lovely distinctive for me it can be most likely this heat yellow ochre and what that does is that removes the white and slightly bit something yellow ochre will peek through i’m simply utilising a filbert brush so that is a filbert has a smooth rounded facet on it it is obtained the roundness of a circular brush however it’s a flat if you view it from the aspect it can be flat and i am simply making these pleasant soft edges here for our luna moth that is off a bit distance just fine and easy variety of i am letting little bits of the underneath portray show by means of and i am working to get simply relatively gestural marks i would like this to not have i would like it to believe free and gestural so simply letting the paint do its factor come up correct here on the highest the top of the luna moth or the highest by means of wing there may be this fairly style of distinct burgundy color that we will be adding in somewhat even as now as i am working around the moon i’m letting a bits of the white go via and later we are going to come back with some brighter colors to get the feeling that the moon is reflecting light from the solar and it can be giving a appearing as a mild supply in the night time sky just sort of teasing that blue up along the sides of the moon get a bit extra blue there there we go my darken that up it is feeling a little of it inexperienced side with somewhat an excessive amount of of the yellow ochre is peeking via right here we go when i’m hoping that you all got a risk to take part in inexperienced gold venture and green gold is sort of a difficult colour to use and however yet it can be this kind of enjoyable and neat color so i am quite watching forward to seeing all of the distinct ways that each one of fellow youtuber artists are developing with i do know there’s going to be some performance art there’s gonna be paintings and colored pencil drawings and even someone’s going to be doing makeup so it will have to be a neat neat factor to peer the entire special ways that the color can be used so i’m simply scrubbing in somewhat bit I used a colour that I made with yellow ochre and black and white to have in the moon a little little bit of element let’s go in now with slightly bit of this everlasting alizarin crimson and begin to denote that this prime ridge on the highest of the body of the insect I’ve obtained this really best contrast between the green and then this strong daring color at the prime now I’ve received somewhat liner brush and a liner brush is fairly just a circular brush with lengthy bristles that’s meant for element work or I most often use it once I signal my name and these little eye patterns both at the prime of the body and the backside set of wings I suppose marvel if this is probably God made camouflage to spare that negative little luna moth so he can get faraway from from its predators however the bats need to consume whatever so probably when the luna moth is worn out and he’s had the end of his time then probably the luna might be the bat can have him as a snack however it’s variety of sad to think about that bad luna moth falling prey to the bat the myotis so i’m now not taking a what is this that is dioxazine purple and the highest of the eye marks have nearly like eyeliner or anything it’s like a darker bit and the middle’s have white so we are going to put a bit of little bit of this light colour in the center and then i’ll have got to blend these colours so they’re one of a kind methods you can combination of path which you could combination through robotically scrubbing a colour to both remove some of it or scrub it in and another method to blend can be so as to add a different color on prime so i will do type of a hybrid between the 2 i’m gonna do a little mechanical motion right here of the colour round after which add yet another color just to sort of soften that up so they are quite distinctive different approaches to make inexperienced gold I’ve received green gold correct out of the tube and i’m also mixing a green gold by using taking yellow and an extraordinarily tiny tiny quantity of black that can make style of a unusual variation just a little little bit of white right here on the body with pleasant little fluffy body and then the grey that you just see I just blended the gray making use of a little bit little bit of Mars black and a few white and a tiny quantity of yellow ochre to show the stomach or the backside of the luna i suppose it is the abdomen it is the bottom a part of the the torso of the insect i suppose I don’t know what the bottom little section is it can be a bit his little bottom but his little backside type of curves in in and down as he is flying so now I’ve bought only a yellow and i’m gonna just take yellow and restate some of these brighter areas on the insect over the preliminary out of the blue painted yellow ochre that are not yellow go that thinly painted green gold i am just coming again with a bit of little bit of yellow to brighten a few of these areas and now just a little bit of shadow so there’s the highest set of wings and the backside set and there is a bit of a gap between the two and i need to play that up by all I did was just use a darker variant so that might be green gold with a bit only a contact of black or person might use yellow after which and then black as a combo now i will go in and soften this edge by means of simply taking a smooth brush that used to be dipped into water smooth it off after which i will be able to form of unpolluted up the edge through simply scrubbing it out a bit of bit now if I acquired some paint where I didn’t wish it i will be able to always paint over the top so i have somewhat as can see just a little spot there on his physique the white physique i will go back and add just a little add a little touch of white to quilt that however I need to get the these of the moth has got style of fluffy furry however the wings themselves are form of soft and fluffy and furry so I need to sort of get that feeling after which the physique of the moth is very fluffy and furry so I need to get that feeling across via the paint and then one thing that’s fairly attribute between a moth and a butterfly is a butterfly has antennae which might be like somewhat stick with a bit of thing on the finish of little bulb at the finish and that you could always tell a moth from a butterfly when you consider that a moth will have form of a feathery watching the antennae will seem very feathery and and so that is that’s a giant colossal technique to simply tell them when you simply come throughout one and appear at it then that you could tell that means butterfly versus moth so I’ve got I used to used a liner brush to create that little feathery sort of outcomes I first put down a layer of yellow no longer yellow i suppose it was a cad orange medium or cad orange hue and then got here over the top with a bit bit more white plus the cad orange let’s take a little titanium white and our phthalo blue purple color and get that mixed up so the sky may be very dark by means of many of the portray and i love that contrast between the dark inky sky after which the moon but i’m looking to create a transitional area between this inky darkness and show the influence of the moon and the way the moon is interacting with the insects and the bugs are drawn to the moon so I wish to put certain attention on that here’s a exceptional clean dry round brush and i am taking a tiny quantity i’m gonna do a dry brushing technique right here i’m just taking an awfully time so this technique is called scumbling or dry brushing and once I’m doing this i’m simply hanging an awfully small amount of paint on the dry brush in order that brush is not wet at all first after which i will be able to put this paint simply sort of particularly brush it excessive and i will be able to both put it in and scrub it in or just calmly practice it here i’m gonna honestly scrub it in and i’m being careful to no longer put an excessive amount of paint on the brush for those of you who have ever finished stenciling you understand the outcome of that you’ll be able to take a gentle brush and put a very small quantity on striking relatively a little greater than what a person would use for stenciling nevertheless it’s the same style of concept where you you pounce it pounce they paint on after which here figuring out i am putting the phthalo blue red colour that we blended up just now and striking that on so first we have now a teal and then working outward from the moon now the phthalo blue red shade plus white so I wish to get this feeling of the teal is a warmer and lighter color and then figuring out and giving the feeling like the moon is brightening and lightening the sky however getting slightly bit of the colour up on to the insect that is k i will simply you understand put somewhat color over the top of that later i’m particularly more fascinated by getting getting excellent insurance policy and i would like some of the darkish colour to top by means of too so there is kind of an effect that you would be able to get with scumbling this dry brushing that’s distinctive than if the if the brush were at first wet a wet brush that I dipped into the paint is going to offer a entire distinctive mark than a fully dry brush with a spare amount of paint all proper so now an extra clean brush tiny tiny quantity of the teal i will be able to go back in and layer this now that it is dry return and layer that over and a further layer variety of enhance that teal color and fairly give a tender gentle part to the moon i’m going to be going back over with some titanium white in the other course there we go and simply making that tremendous tender so in my painting i am i am imagining that these two luna moths are going to have their love reunion or their love union up within the sky and they’ll be equipped to create more luna moths and that both of them will ward off the bat or if they’ll be a meal for the bat perhaps it’s right on their final day due to the fact they get a couple of week to live might be on the last day and the moth can have a meal but expectantly not too quickly so i am just going back over and restating some of these areas with thee permanent alizarin crimson and now signing my identify utilising cad orange hue and a liner brush well I need to thank every person for becoming a member of and i am hoping that you have had a fun time doing the green intention task and that you can make a version for yourself and end up part of this playlist and i am hoping to do it again this is 2019 i’m hoping to do it again in 2020 so so all people is welcome and and and i am hoping that you’ll participate so here is my finished painting and thanks so much for becoming a member of that is Dena Tollefson bye

and i am taking a tiny quantity i’m gonna do a dry brushing technique right here i’m just taking an awfully time so this technique is called scumbling or dry brushing and once I’m doing this i’m simply hanging an awfully small amount of paint on the dry brush in order that brush is not wet at all first after which i will be able to put this paint simply sort of particularly brush it excessive and i will be able to both put it in and scrub it in or just calmly practice it here i’m gonna honestly scrub it in and i’m being careful to no longer put an excessive amount of paint on the brush for those of you who have ever finished stenciling you understand the outcome of that you’ll be able to take a gentle brush and put a very small quantity on striking relatively a little greater than what a person would use for stenciling nevertheless it’s the same style of concept where you you pounce it pounce they paint on after which here figuring out i am putting the phthalo blue red colour that we blended up just now and striking that on so first we have now a teal and then working outward from the moon now the phthalo blue red shade plus white so I wish to get this feeling of the teal is a warmer and lighter color and then figuring out and giving the feeling like the moon is brightening and lightening the sky however getting slightly bit of the colour up on to the insect that is k i will simply you understand put somewhat color over the top of that later i’m particularly more fascinated by getting getting excellent insurance policy and i would like some of the darkish colour to top by means of too so there is kind of an effect that you would be able to get with scumbling this dry brushing that’s distinctive than if the if the brush were at first wet a wet brush that I dipped into the paint is going to offer a entire distinctive mark than a fully dry brush with a spare amount of paint all proper so now an extra clean brush tiny tiny quantity of the teal i will be able to go back in and layer this now that it is dry return and layer that over and a further layer variety of enhance that teal color and fairly give a tender gentle part to the moon i’m going to be going back over with some titanium white in the other course there we go and simply making that tremendous tender so in my painting i am i am imagining that these two luna moths are going to have their love reunion or their love union up within the sky and they’ll be equipped to create more luna moths and that both of them will ward off the bat or if they’ll be a meal for the bat perhaps it’s right on their final day due to the fact they get a couple of week to live might be on the last day and the moth can have a meal but expectantly not too quickly so i am just going back over and restating some of these areas with thee permanent alizarin crimson and now signing my identify utilising cad orange hue and a liner brush well I need to thank every person for becoming a member of and i am hoping
