alphonse mucha paraphrase
mucha’s is partially about cultural pride, which i found to be fitting for rin. rin had to represent a culture she never knew, she never had any connections to speer outside of what altan told her, what she was showed through the phoenix, and through text books (which were horrendously racist for sure), which gave her a very limited understanding of speer and speerly culture. yet, despite not knowing speerly culture, she became its face. so in my paraphrase she’s wearing a hanfu (traditional chinese clothing = nikara) instead of the clothing that tearza is wearing in the background (inspired by traditional taiwanese clothing = speerly) to simply show her discontent from the culture she’s supposed to represent. this is also why the necklace she is wearing is breaking.

"Me when I lie" is such a funny pseudo-diplomatic response to anything. Like just going "see I'm not saying that you would ever lie, but I tend to be a liar, and that would be the exact kind of thing that would come out of my mouth when I'm lying" sounds like the exact kind of quip that someone who was just described as 'too clever for their own good' would get stabbed over.

I DON'T THINK YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND
For NINE DAYS Odysseus was wide awake
He was just trying to make it home with NO storm or tidal wave.
AND IN THAT TIME he remained unopposed and the bag was STILL CLOSED.
He was SO CLOSE, too, reuniting with his wife and son.
He was SO eager to make new memories with his beloved wife, and he wanted to make up for lost time with his son.
All he had to do was keep his eyes open.
But he was so tired.
Just had to keep his eyes open.
He just wanted to see his family.
Keep your eyes open Odysseus.
He just wanted to embarce them after a long war.
If only he had kept his eyes open.

Isn't it funny? How none of them ever stood a chance? Isn't it hilarious? How none of it could've been prevented? Isn't it comical? How it was all so much bigger than themselves? Isn't it just hysterical? How it was always gonna end like this?

thinking about fang runin and about how all she wanted was to be a good soldier, to get praise from her commanders, to be deemed as worthy, and how she was used as a weapon, over and over again, and constantly betrayed by the people she served and trusted. but she was always a soldier, and she never knew anything else

Idk where- but I saw really similar art to this once and I wanted to redraw it in my style. I can’t claim full credit and hats off to the original artist, but here my version of it.
