Ginger the curious orange tabby cat sits perched in the old wooden window, watching the world go by outside. Sunlight filters through the dusty panes, illuminating his fluffy fur as his tail swishes gently. He ponders what adventures await him if he could slip out and explore the quaint city street. But for now, he's content to observe from his cozy spot, a feline sentinel keeping watch over his little corner of the world captured in timeless strokes of oil paint.

Bryant Park Breadline, New York, 1933. Edward Steichen. Gelatin sliver.
This photograph is considered an iconic image of the Great Depression. Though the beauty of it might obscure the desperation and hardship faced by millions of Americans.

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#a-qing#xiao xingchen#A-qing's story kicks off so strong. You really get a sense that she feels strongly attached to xxc during the pre-empathy scenes#and that she has a strong sense of loyalty and perseverance with strong survival instinct#but then you see her before all the tragedy and you *immediately* learn she is a clever trickster!#She follows xxc not out of gratitude but out of a sense that this guy is her meal ticket.#xxc is kind and strong but most importantly *noble*#she can smell the self-sacrificing bright eyed hope on this stranger. She knows the mere fact she's a young blind girl means#he will protect her. The fact he gives her a little money doesn't hurt her justification but tbh she would have followed all the same#a-qing is *the* catgirl of all time actually. Follows you for the fact you provide food and shelter. Opportunistic. May grow to be loyal.#That's not even getting into the parallels here between these two characters and wwx (who is seeing these events play out)#the yi city trio are arguably the three split aspects of wwx: who he feels like (a-qing the opportunist) who he wants to be (xxc the noble)#and who he feels seen as (xy the vengeful).#one day I'll write a more robust analysis on that. prob in the tags though#(His a-qing parallels are also tied with the fact they both were street rat orphans who learned how to code-switch to be whoever#they need to be to feel safe. I have a lot more thoughts to share but augh another time...another time)
