the dusty art cabinet

extra notes/rambles:

disclaimer that I don't know anything about flower language and got almost all of my info from various websites

I didn't get to fit this but Kolya (red)'s addendum flower (snapdragons) are known for being stronger than their delicate appearance would suggest and being able to grow in tough environments, just like kolya!

Kolya's expression is the most melancholic (save for Hayden/blue's) because he received a lot of flowers as a child going in and out of the hospital for surgeries and treatments; he has a complicated impression of flowers due to the negative associations he holds

it's very funny to me that Wonjae's (green) is just like a bunch of wildflowers bc I didn't do that on purpose, the meanings just happened to fit

^I like to imagine kolya (red) picked those out for him - as in, carefully researched the meanings and specifically found ones that weren't as conventionally beautiful and looked more like wildflowers/weeds just for the hell of it lol

Wonjae is a Rich Kid (adopted parents are old money), so fancy flowers aren't as special to him as Kolya; hence why he's so happy (also he's just a happy guy all around)

hayden (blue)'s pose was based off an especially dramatic pinterest picture of what I think was a promo for a kpop album, so I added the yearning expression for the hell of it

but I would like to establish that Hayden has Resting Yearner Face like some people have RBFs

and finally it is still freaking me out that Cameron shares a name with someone I know irl (actually TWO people now!!) but I refuse to change it because it FITS dammit and I made the character cameron before I met either of them !!

and cameron (orange)'s magnolia's "purity/innocence" meaning don't fit him much, but I did like the nobility/dignity/perseverance so I stuck with it!

& his edelweiss are a rare flower that grow in european moutains (I believe?), which match with his shtick of being a one-in-a-million "chosen one"!
