hi ari i do have a question - how do u imagine the giratina wings would work .. like would they be solid .. trying to imagine lunadri cuddling with the wings in the way
Hello friend!!! Thank you very much for this question ^-^
(I apologise for how long my answer ended up becoming ;w;)
To answer your questions/comments succinctly:
The wings work a bit weirdly because they're to do with the original Giratina, which I'm saying was Reborn-Shiny because so is the Arceus (I think). ..Don't ask me how she got tied up with it in the first place.
They are more spectral than properly solid, but you can still feel them (putting your hand through them will make it feel numb though, and it also feels weird to Adriana, so perhaps don't do that). They look more solid when she's in a New World.
We can work around them! It basically just means Luna can't hug Adriana from behind without needing to take them into account, but.. everything else is theoretically on the table. So, I like to think that works out ^-^
Okay, now for my actual initial very long-winded response to this.
Hmm.. I will admit that I hadn’t considered this. I think it would make sense if Adriana’s wings were at least somewhat non-solid, in that, like.. most things can pass through them, but with some resistance, to the point that you can probably push something through them quite easily, but if you just sort of threw something at them then it would probably just lose too much momentum and fall. Adriana will feel it if something goes into or through her wings, though (at least after they become fully apparent, which happens after the Giratina quest in postgame. Specifically:
Only Anna is able to see Adriana's wings to begin with, similarly to the other traits she perceives others as having (like Taka's own wings or Cain's pitch-black eyes), and Adriana cannot see or sense them whatsoever. However, Anna never properly specifies what they actually look like, just insists that she has them.
After becoming void-kissed (so, after the Glass Workstation), Adri starts very vaguely being able to sense her wings occasionally, and they also start sometimes appearing in glimpses in her shadow. Other than that, no-one else can see or sense them, though Luna definitely does her best to accommodate them from here on out, regardless. It still isn't clear what type of wings they are.
(Note that it's after becoming void-kissed that Adriana starts being able to perceive others as Anna does, so this means that this occurs with the exception of herself.)
Whenever she is confronting Umbral Trainers or Anomalies, Adriana becomes more aware of the presence of her wings, but is generally too caught up with what is going on in the moment to properly dwell on it like she wants to - and most New World areas are so shadowy that she can't really tell if they're constantly there in her shadow or not.
The moment her wings finally become visible and tangible to everyone is the same moment in which Anna starts mistaking her for a doll of Lin's - after she catches the original, Reborn-Shiny, Giratina that Zina sealed beneath Byxbysion. A comparison of this false perception versus the new truth is given below:
From this point onwards (which.. admittedly isn't that much more of the story, but still), Adriana's wings are spectral in the normal world, but fully-formed and solid whenever she's in a New World space. This is going to be my explanation for why they appeared solid during those old grand finale renders I made ages ago, but fade out on her other sprites and renders.)
It’s probably quite a strange sensation, both to Adriana and to someone else if they stuck their hand through them; I quite like the idea of anything that goes into or through the wings feeling very numb, rather than necessarily hurting or anything. They feel more solid, and the sensation is more intense, as you move closer to the part of her back where they look like they emanate from. I like to think the wings are solid enough (to Adriana at least) that she tries to take them into account when moving around, but also intangible enough that nothing can really affect them, necessarily - so, like, you couldn't grab them and use them to pull her towards you or anything, and she would also be able to put her back against a wall without too much issue (it might just feel odd to her). They also don't interfere with her clothing, thankfully. Such are the conveniences of spectral energy.
So, with all that said.. I do think that Adri’s wings would need to be taken into account to at least some extent when cuddling with Luna. However, it is not as much of a big consideration as it could be, simply because the two of us are already used to considering things when we cuddle, like making sure we don’t scrunch up our skirts for example. Adriana can also curl her wings fairly freely after they become fully apparent, so that helps, and they aren't that big to begin with (smaller than the ones Anna sees Taka as having, certainly), so that also helps. For example, I like to think that she would be able to lift them both so that Luna is underneath them, if we were both on our sides ^-^
Sorry for going on such a tangent there, oops ;w; I hope that this is still alright as an answer for you, friend! Thank you so much again for sending this in, it really means a lot~

Little comfort character win today? This is gonna be cringe
So this entire week I was preparing for a dance performance i signed up for at school, and I was feeling kinda nervous about it because its my first time performing and all but Aphelios made me feel better about it.
I went up there and did really well! I played it off naturally and most of all just had fun! And I feel like I have to thank Aphelios for it, for all the comfort he gave me. After the performance when I was walking home I saw a lot more stars in the sky, i couldn’t see the moon, but there were definitely more stars then usual, a lot brighter too. I cant help but imagine him hanging them up in the sky to cheer me on (I’m sure Alune probably came up with the idea first however)
I’m just rambling cause im feeling a lot and im lowkey sleep deprived but it just feels like i found him at the right time honestly

What are your opinions on selfcest?
I absolutely love it to be honest ? ? Like!! Think about it, especially if it’s a egotistical F/O that is all like “yeah, the only one good enough for me is me!” And they’ll kiss and bone their own self it’s such a great trope. I actually follow this trope with Rocket, Leonardo / Donatello, Collin, Reptile / Baraka, and Angel Dust as my main selfcest contenders.
But honestly? The idea of a ‘canon’ character and ‘AU’ character messing around and making out and dating is such a fascinating topic to me. Like think about it. Take Rocket for example. Guardians Rocket x Bounty Hunter Rocket and these two just colliding. These two have morbid curiosity what it’s like to make out and fuck each other. Because who knows when they’ll ever get a chance to do it again??
I actually follow the trope on E6 (shhhhhh)

Thinking about dating Nanami 😌 because it's super muggy outside and I don't want to work.
I feel like you would have a lot of coffee dates with because you're both exhausted from work, and dealing with gojo (if you're a sorcerer too). If one of you accidentally buys the last pastries, you definitely have to share. He would scold you for drinking coffee to late in the day. Try to get you to drink more water😂

Hello I come bearing (approximate/placeholder) fankid designs
(All designs were made using this one picrew)
From left to right, these are Mistral, Rime, and Virga, who are my fankids for my selfship with Aqua! The three of them are Aqua's apprentice Keyblade wielders at the Land of Departure, though all of them originate from different worlds. I have not specifically established these worlds yet, but it could be fun to, especially if I could work their lore into the characters themselves (for example, explaining why Rime has antlers, or why Mistral's magic is so strong)
And then on the left here is Ruby, my fankid for my selfship with Pyra, and Sophie, my fankid for my selfship with Skye!
..Doing this has given me a headache (or, in any case, I now have a headache), and obviously these aren't accurate to a lot of specific details, but I think they work okay for visuals for the moment, so here they are!

I've been experimenting with ms paint lately and i drew one of my homestuck s/i's so I thought "fuck it, why not introduce her" so here they are!!!
This is Nivzai Mutara, Aradia's matesprit! They are transfem nonbinary and she uses she/they.
She has a particular interest in space and the stars. She likes to stargaze and often uses their telescope. They insist that she sees things that mean something (often the very near future) when she does so, but nobody believes her. They also like to garden in their free time, and they have a bunch of plants all around their hive. It’s a chore to take care of them all but at least she knows what she’s doing.
I need to start making actual refs im sorry 😭
