Art And Yap

I actually have thought a bit about how the differences between kneari'ah and the surface may affect them a little. it's mentioned that they struggle some with keeping their own livestock and food crops underground, so they've probably never seen so much flora & animals. let alone so many in one place.

do you think they'd sneeze a bit at the plants since their bodies aren't really used to it? the idea of rerir doing one of those puppy sneezes is cute.. ehe.

i've seen a few head canons around that animals don't really like rerir, or at least his abyss form. they're probably more fine with young rerir since he's yknow a normal human. i can't really picture him as an animal lover though... i don't think he'd have a particular strong urge to form a bond with any kind of critter. dain might like a cat or dog though

first nation they visit, i believe in the "kneari'ah is below mondstadt" theory so. mondstadt! both of them like wine, so it'd be a fun time maybe. i wonder if they have preferences towards specific flavors. i've never drank wine before only tequila, pineapple cocktail and, to my dismay, bourbon whiskey. so i'm unsure how flavors with it work.

i have the idea of rerir not being picky with food in general though, he'll eat anything you put in front of him really. (EXCEPT coffee, he'll spit that out instantly) i do think he has a preference towards more calm flavors though

for dain, i actually haven't thought about his food preference before actually. i have the feeling he likes grilled food though, depression be damned! that boy can grill!

i'm getting off topic.

back on nations, i don't think they have a strong bond to any of them. and dains traveler trait makes it hard for me to imagine him staying in one place unless it's to settle down. rerir's happy anywhere as long as the conditions are good and he's not being forced to do anything (obvious reasons)

expanding on conditions, i wonder what they think of there being constantly changing weather? like huh the surface is, very eventful.

i find them really cute, but that goes without saying though. just look at tholindis, i too would go crazy if i just watched her die in front of me.

think they're a nice mix of bittersweet; how soft they are but doomed by a tragedy they can't escape no matter what turn they took. oh poor babies

though i've seen comments of them being boring compared to rerirs' interactions with other characters, they really are in my opinion the most important in piecing together his full character. his behavioral change and the things he's monologuing about are significantly more important than just his scenes of attempting to kill the other nod krai characters

not just his softness with her too but his faults in their relationship as well. hm .. i should rewatch their scenes

though tholindis is a minor character compared to everyone else in the lunar quest, you can see she's a lot more interesting if you genuinely look at her instead of just categorizing her as an accessory to rerir. YES she has an actual personality and her own individual goals

her being hesistant about rerirs' true job both because she loves him and also because she's hiding lies of her own? oooo

she's also pretty fierce, rerir isn't the only one. tholindis was willing to kill the abyss twin for that man.

also my fav thing about them of all ... i love corpse bride stories. or at least things adjacent to it. i don't see many people talk about rerir being a gender bent corpse bride. i know why they don't... but still. he's a corpse character with an obsession about marriage and his arc is that he has to learn to let go! where's the fanart of him in a bridal dress. actually i saw two before.

yes tholindis is wearing the suit with rerir in the dress btw, it's true!
