キッド

Tagged by @redaresss & @shadowknight19kay, I was intrigued to participate.

Get a screenshot of your OC's eye color and surround it with 8 items of the same color.

Since Avire has heterochromia with one blue eye and one brown eye, I decided to show his duality through his eyes. Being human and bionic is his yin and yang.

Of course, Ross has brown eyes, but his pink hair helps them sparkle and become more vibrant. Speaking of pink, what better way to describe him than with sweet goodies?

I've wanted to create this for a while, and boy have I achieved and succeeded. These two brothers have such a strong bond, I figured this song and the two members' choreo would fit perfectly.

Avire will be celebrating Pride Month his way, by heading back to France to spend time with his family and having fun with his friends in Paris. Since Avire is part French and gay, and Paris is well-known for high fashion, I put two and two together to create this chic, 'Gay MLM Flag' inspired outfit for him.

💚 Dark & Light Green: A two-toned button-down shirt

🤍 White: A simple, cropped t-shirt underneath

🩵 Light Blue: Casual Chino Pants

💙 Deep and Dark Blue: Leather Combat Boots

Accessories: A small MLM flag scarf worn on his wrist.

Also, of course, I had to include him with his favorite drink while he's enjoying pride. A classic black milk tea with boba, and a special MLM swirly straw to boot. 🧋

From Avire, raising his boba to you, and truly yours,

A New Rook Comeback

"Second we walk in, everybody know; Got the place poppin', Dreamin' up a sound; I'm gonna hit the-, I'm gonna hit the-, I'm gonna hit the- OMG!"

Ross Thorne

Wake up, it's da first of da month (Happy Pride Month!!) Back again with a new Rook debut. After finishing my playthrough with Avire, I decided to go ahead and make a new rook for my playthrough, and gave you guys a teaser. And now, folks, I'd like you to meet Ross Thorne.

Basic Stats:

Nicknames: "Rook", "Ro", "Pink"

Age: 35 Height: 6'2" Sex: Male

Ethnicity: Black/Quartz/Diamond Origins: Anderfels

Lineage: Human Class: Warrior Faction: Grey Warden

Sexuality: Gay Pronouns: He/Him

Ross Thorn is a 35-year-old man who's a bit more experienced than Avire, though still shares similar traits. He was a destructive punk kid back then, who then had a change of heart after saving someone's life and turned a new leaf. He dyed his hair pink and enlisted with the Grey Wardens. He often bends the rules by doing things off-book and fraternizing with his colleagues at his rank or lower. He has a grand sense of nobility and morality, or wants to do what is right. He carries the warmth inside him as well, giving a pink aura that's inviting to others. Also, he can have a little fun at times, which makes him a bit soft and silly. (I tried to base him on Rose Quartz.)

Final side by side

Ross Thorne & Avire De Riva

I recently made a Perfume post not too long ago, following Wednesday's Rook Roost Theme.

Then it got me wondering... Who would your Rook be wearing?

Rules: Imagine your Rook being asked, "Who are they wearing?" Select a clothing brand and perfume fragrance that fits their style. How many are selected is up to you. Optional points in adding a photo with their signature.

Clothing 🕶️👕👖🥾

Ray-Ban Aviators, Abercrombie & Fitch Navy Crop Top, Gap Bootcut Jeans, L.L.Bean & Doc Martens Boots

Perfume 🧴💨☁️

Shay & Blue Salt Caramel and Blueberry Musk

Autograph ✍️

Avire always has that welcoming charm and likes interacting with folks, friends, and fans. He likes answering this question and giving autographs during meet-and-greets. He's a very fashionable idol boy; maybe he'll be in Paris for Fashion Week one day.

Tagged by @shadowknight19kay, much obliged 😌

I've done something similar to this before, but I am also intrigued to do this one as well. Let's go!

Clothing Item They Would Wear - A classic zip-up hoodie. Of course, Avire loves the sense of comfort, and can complement his sense of fashion. When he throws on a casual zip-up, he often pairs it with jeans (he fits from athletic taper to Bootcut) and closes it off with a good pair of sneakers. Along with regular zip-ups, he also has cropped and sleeveless ones, 'cause he likes showing bits of his torso. Avire often wears it on various runs because of its versatility.

Texture in their Signature Color - Periwinkle fabrics. Figured Periwinkle may be a perfect combination of Avire's color, baby blue, and Antivan Crow's color, Indigo. Avire would just love the feeling of a soft and cozy periwinkle cotton blanket as he lounges, especially if it's warm from the dryer and smells of lilac.

An animal that suits their Personality - A puppy doggy. Puppies and dogs are natural go-getters, have lots of energy, and love going out to play fetch or for rides in the car. Avire has ambitious, go-getter energy as well, with going out for adventures and dragon-hunting. Both love affection and belly rubs. Also, puppies are cute, Avire is cute, 1 + 1 equals 2. I mean, just look at his face, he's a cutie, yeah, he's a cutie.

Environment That Captures Their Story - The city district. Avire often heads downtown when he's out for errands or just a stroll. He loves takin' the subway when there's high traffic on the surface and has a good knowledge of the system. He also visits his favorite cafes and clothing shops nearby.

Avire De Riva

Object in their Bag - Switch 2. Proudly, Avire likes to game every now and then. Since he's usually on the go, he takes his Switch 2 with him to get his game on whenever he has time off. The best part is he can use his phone charger for his game since they're both USB-C.

Interest of Theirs - Documenting/Journaling. Avire has a sort of 'Everything' journal, meaning he documents lots of things inside: thoughts, recent outings and adventures, drawings, even adding stickers and small photos. Especially, he currently studies German, Japanese, and Korean, so he adds the languages' alphabet and phrases in his journal as well.

Abstraction that Captures their Vibe - The thrill of having a mic in your hand. This is where Avire's goofball side tends to shine. Avire's already admired by lots for his vibrant warmth and charisma, but give him a mic and earpiece, and he goes all out.

A Food or Beverage They Enjoy - Steak & Shrimp Teriyaki. Noodles, cooked steak and shrimp, teriyaki sauce, and topped with soy sauce. Avire's favorite comfort food, next to his main being gyros. He prefers noodles to rice and likes how everything collides together. Sometimes he makes some himself; other times he orders it in with a side of dumplings or sushi rolls, too. Avire's also an expert in using chopsticks.

Rook Roost Wednesday Prompt - Scent ☁️

☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️

What does your Rook smell like?

For this question, I chose to put my own spin on it and name a couple of perfume fragrances that match Avire's signature scent. Let's see what Avire would be wearing.

🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮🍮

Shay & Blue Salt Caramel & Blueberry Musk

Since Avire's signature scent is salt caramel and blueberries, I found these two fragrances would be perfect for him, since they literally have them in the names.

Salt Caramel

The Salt Caramel is meant to evoke a warm, vibrant scent of sandalwood, caramel, and a hint of vanilla bean. This scent enhances Avire's cozy and comforting side, being warm and inviting.

Blueberry Musk

The Blueberry Musk creates a more natural and grounded scent of blueberries, yet also airy and wooded scents as well. This would complement Avire's more rugged side in the sense of venturing around in a natural wooded forest.

Layered Together

When worn, Avire would layer the Salt Caramel as his base, and then Blueberry Musk as a top coat. Together, they bring quite an androgynous scent, mixing the vibrance of Salt Caramel and the groundedness of Blueberry Musk. After that, he'd smell like a fresh, warm hug.

Instructions: A photo of your oc, six(or more) photos that fit how they are when in love, and 3-4 songs.

I guess it's my turn now, heh. 😅

(Paper & Digital Comparison)

Digital versions are here! I sketched and colored on paper in my journal first, then I digitized the colors using a photo of my sketches. Further on, a Deep Dive into the poses I've done for Avire with a paper/digital comparison.

♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️♠️

Deja Vu

This was inspired by Hueningkai of TXT dancing to their song Deja Vu. I really liked this move he makes at the beginning of the song. Even though we've never seen him dance, I feel Avire can be this type of dancer, where smooth moves like this can bring out the androgyny in him. Also, this kind of fit suits him so well.

🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐🫐

Dance With You

Avire's whole aesthetic comes from Hueningkai's performance concept of his song 'Dance With You'. His being an Antivan Crow and his casual fit in the game resonate so well with this concept. So, I decided to put two 'n' two together. I feel Avire would do a perfect dance cover of Huening's choreography in his song; he'd be savvy and sassy with it. I modified Avire's fit from Hueningkai's by adding Antivan colors (blue and indigo) to his shirt.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Casual Day

On an average day in the Modern Au, this is what Avire usually wears. I also added in the bag he uses, which I described more in my bag post, and used the associated fit. Avire probably wears this for his jobs and errands, and sometimes while commuting when not driving. Looking quite warm and inviting, he often gets a few complimentary looks and waves at the airports and train stations, and he kindly reciprocates with smiles and nods.

Sound Check

Knowing a goofball like Avire, he is an expert in having fun. One awesome way of expressing it is by jamming out hard at a soundcheck session. Other than being softer and more relaxed on normal days, Avire tends to get loose whenever he has a mic in his hands. Instead of Hueningkai, I got my reference from white-haired Harua of &Team to switch it up. I had his fit be a more natural look of just a good plain tee and jeans, while also giving him an earpiece to go with his mic. A kind and sweet guy by day, and an idol boy with a mic drop by night.

Who's your bias? I'm your bias. Who's your bias? It's Vie!

Happy Birthday, Vie 🥳🥳🥳

Today is Avire's birthday. My salted caramel, blueberry bionic king turns 29 today. Technically, I made him in October when I started the game last year, but I had his birthday be this day. I wanted both of our birthdays to be on the same days as national days of our favorite foods; My birthday (April 26th) (which sucked) and National Pretzel Day, and Avire's Birthday (April 30th) and National Bubble Tea/Boba Day.

giggles Hey, just say I'm your fave! 😉

For this day, I made a few drawings of him that honestly took way longer than they should have. Sadly, I don't have a picture of him drinking boba, though I may draw that whenever I can. Still, I am very proud of myself. (Please view Alt Text for the descriptions.)

As Always, ✨ Avire's Ending Fairy ✨
