I'm almost done (ha) with my Sohra cloak!
Gonna add sparkles and embroidery to give a bit of a magic feel (and also because sparkles), but the main construction and painting is done!
Psst, Sohra is done, pictures here:

so ive been thinking about rqg (as i often do) specifically about death in rqg and how much i like how ttrpgs handle death as a medium
because in every other story telling medium death is planned, it comes at the end of an arc, at a convenient time where the story for a character wraps up in a narratively satisfying way, there seldom are open stories, and if they are they were deliberately left open
but not so in ttrpg, not in rqg (ignoring berties death here since its a special case)
because the death is always random, and while its always well done it also always leaves something behind
something that could have been but never was
im thinking about how sasha and zolfs last words were "see you later" and how they never did
im thinking about how grizzop never got to see his kids again, or sit in the cafe with vesseek as he promised
im thinking about how sumutnyel never got their closure with Tesla, how she never got to explain to Sohra and the council why she let him in the garden
im thinking about how one day they were just there and then the next day they werent, not for a narrative reason but because thats just how life is!!
things go wrong, life isn't planable!!
but at the same time you can see that it was their choices, made with free will that got them there, they weren't chess pieces moved around by some writer, they were people who made the best choices
they could in that moment, because they're played by people who dont know the whole story, who had to make the right choice in the right moment or suffer the consequences
sasha made the choice to go to rome, and even tho she wasnt a big fan of the plan, she went to support her friends, because she wanted to help them
grizzop did the same but he also made the choice to take the spear meant for sasha and he knew the risks when he attacked the captain but in his head it was worth it
sumutnyel did not have to helo these strangers into the garden, into their sacred place, she didnt have to jumo through the portal or continue helping them, but they made that choice because they wanted to make up for the guilt they felt
and i just think that's beautiful because i can go back and be sad about their deaths but i can also see the choices that let them there, and understand that it was the best they could do, that they wanted to help in every way they could. and they did.

5 and 19 for the rqg retrospective asks :D
5. Pick a character and make a prediction for their epilogue.
Azu & Kiko wedding please!! Not to be mainstream but hnnnggggg. i want them to have a happily-ever-after.
OH WAIT! What I really want for Azu also is for her to return to Sohra and the Ursuns and learn more about their resurrection rituals!!!! She was so awed by that magic and so earnest and curious and she just. really wants to learn. i love her
19. Can you try to put into words the crushing nostalgia you now feel when you think back to the prologue episodes, and how you felt listening to them for the first time vs how that would feel now?
Uhhhhhhh. not even in the slightest. I think I have listened to the whole thing start-to-finish(/present) three times now? and each time it hits differently, each time something new pricks at me. must admit the prologue is much more enjoyable once you've formed the attachment to the characters lol I really struggled getting through it the first time round
RQG Retrospective asks!

Sohra is here!
What started as a little project to work on through rqgg2020 turned into a six week long project. (oops) The painting took 4 days, the embroidery and beading another week on and off.
Honestly the moment Alex said she had a giant feather cape I knew I was going to have to try and bring her to life. It's been a fun, if very frustrating project. It's weird making a cosplay with zero visual references!

Sohra is here at the end!

Wearing my new favourite t-shirt, commissioned from @mushiemadarame
T-shirt reads: L.O.L.O.M.G. left me at the Garden of Yerlik and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
Will I regret this much eye makeup? Almost certainly.
