I always found it weird that people called Kaz Dirtyhands in the books, cause like I know it's metaphorical but I was thinking like, the guy always wears gloves, if anything he has very clean hands

don't mind me I'm just going insane over nandor's rings
OK OK OK SO idk WHY but my brain suddenly remembered this post by someguywife and it got me wondering how long has he owned those rings?
disclaimer: 100% looking too deep into this and most likely going insane also for the most part I only focused on old photos in the show since I doubt they would go out of their way to edit the rings onto the paintings for nandor
first I looked through the intro and for the most part the rings are nowhere to be seen.
(side note: didn't notice that the last photo was taken on the same night as the new years eve photo :D)
anyway I say for the most part cause of this fucking photo...
Now I don't know shit about polaroids but there's some numbers at the bottom of these photos.
This probably means something but after looking it up all the info I could find talks about numbers on the BACK of a photo so that's fuuuuuuuun. I would keep looking into this but I keep going in circles so please if you have any idea what 090111225 4 could mean please let me know It's driving me fucking crazy. I'm assuming it could translate into a date but idk it could mean nothing.
now looking at the outfits in the photo I'd say this is in the 70s maybe? idk I also suck at analyzing clothes so for now this photo is a dead end WHICH SUCKS CAUSE IT'S ONLY GOING TO GO DOWNHILL FROM HERE!
IF this is the 70s then on we have a rough estimate of WHEN he got them but that's just the intro what about in actual episodes.
if we go back to s2e8 collaborations we get a look at nandor in the 70s when he shows us photos of him and is old familiar benjy aND GUYS GUESS WHAT? N O F U C K I N G R I N G S
the latest date we see on one of those photos is 1974 so around the mid to late 70s he got his ring grea- oh what's that? there's more? greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat...
so going from season 2 to season 3 on s3e3 gail we also get to see some more old photos of our fav cringefail. he says they've been on and off for 30 to 40 years and doing the math that means they met around the early 80s so surely he should have his rings by now right? RIGHT?
at first no BUT THEN
DING DING DING I SEE A FUCKING RING FOLKS
so the next photo shows him celebrating new years with her and she looks to be around the same age SO THAT MEANS HE GOT THE RING IN THE LATE 90- wait the fuck a minute...
huh... WELP SHIT THIS GOT COMPLICATED!
so looking at the photo booth photos again it's most likely the rings nandor usually wears so you'd think he'd be wearing them since you know HE WEARS THEM ALL THE TIME!? but NOPE he's wearing this red ring instead.
and in the next photo you can't tell at all what ring he's wearing.
so what does this all mean? well here's my current theory:
at some point when he was first with gail he got his rings (whether it was a gift or something he picked up idk) so around the 80s or 90s but he didn't wear them as often as he does now.
head cannon: after guillermo complimented the rings we see him wear in the show he made sure to wear those specific rings everyday
thanks for watching me go crazy coming to my TED talk

“We have to get the brooch back,” Adrien said, his voice cracking. “So he can’t do this to anyone else.”
His lack of hesitation took Felix by surprise. When he finally looked back at him, there was something new in his eyes — something that vaguely resembled hope.
“Will you help me…?"
Adrien looked off into the distance, trying to muster the same confidence and strength he had as Chat Noir despite feeling like a lost kid.
“Of course I will. We’re doing this together.”
Or what if the kids actually shared basic plot info with each other for once?

HC; Fate (Moreso his issue with it involving others.)
Now I've touched back on a few HCs were ultimately, this thing, this concept of a nebulous, all controlling power happens to be Caelus's particular bane. In this post I'd like to indulge in the details as to why it even has him cursing fate in all of it's holy/unholy essence. In short? It's the incredibly talented, incredibly dangerous, and incredibly determined people it introduced under its fold that never fails to piss him off. As a way to serve as the metaphorical lego, it happened to be the 'force' that helped him pop back into this universe for hidden reasons! Of course it has to situate in their hands and be out of his, where those circumstances belong.
To say he doesn't believe in it would be a case of ignorance. Within Caelus's eyes, it is a force that's recognized, the concrete powers of divination, foresight and other means to capture those possibilities that are tempered by personality, the current situation, time and place serving as the most dangerous form of 'guesses.' In his mind however, this is exactly what throws that idea of free will clear out the window for him.
'Fate' in this context just happens to be a lovely way to control. To make those who wish to exert that control, every and each person having their particular line of reasoning. This in tune makes nearly the worst type of individuals to get involved with all the same. Now this Trailblazer is someone who has an appreciation for planning, but certainly doesn't hold the highest tolerance of those who plan on this level of scale.
It ultimately belittles the weight of experience, what he, as someone who adores the methods of both of an adventuring lifestyle and the way of the Trailblaze. How can such events be appreciated wholly if the guide of 'cheat codes' remain right upon the desk? On top of that, any form of expression through such a journey gets pigeonholed into such matters. So it leads to his own sense of 'rebellion' upon the matter, to ensure the instant at hand, the shared moment ripples in a way that leaves an influence beyond any grand calculations.
Inspire folks to dig deep and tear forth that means of making "Fate' just be a more comforting meaning for life again. Dealing with the cards you're dealt, the ones newly gained and the ones lost, and streak upon this cosmos your own version of life.
For better and for worse. It'll find it's way to balance out.
..Though, Caelus would hope it'd be for the betterment of things.
