day ten: don’t make the mistake of being too predictable
sup bitches. Crisises not averted, but paused. didn’t write anything.
made some collages tho inspired by @rake-rattrap since I don’t normally make those HAH NOT SO PREDICTABLE NOWWWWW
I’m so tired here you go
Fun little details abt each one:
Bobby’s is inspired by the trans flag! I’m sure all y’all know i HC that bobby is on the he => they => she pipeline so yeah it’s also coquette/pink clean girl idk
oh Jesse. King of gifted child burn out. Added the phrase “per aspera ad astra” which means “through hardships to the stars” in Latin (I think) which gives Jesse to me. I made the main focus quotes like “you can’t help but become the sun” (true blue by boy genius) and “destruction is not what I intended for you/but this is what happens to all who follow in my wake” ( a poem from Apollo to Icarus) because I don’t think he means to be a bitch but he’s been raised in the spotlight and hurt so many times that it’s his defense mechanism and he doesn’t mean to hurt people but he’s come to accept it as the consequence of being around him and that sucks poor baby
Aiden. I put so much effort into this. I was going for siren whorecore y2k vibes I think I achieved that. I added a care bear and a teddy bear to represent Harvard paw (aka the best character) I also included a lot of road signs cuz I think he drives to clear his head. And then the song I chose was teachers pet by Melanie Martinez (awful person fire music) because LOOK AT ME AND TELL ME THIS BOY WAS NOT GROOMED AND IS NOW HYPERSEXUAL SAY IT TO MY FACE (haha projecting on characters is fun isn’t it) but seriously. He is hyper sexual he uses sex as a coping mechanism/self harm technique tell me I’m wrong
I made Dante’s mostly soccer inspired since he’s the only non fencer I did add Ronaldo since his treasure is a signed poster of Ronaldo and I think he would drink sprite idk. Whole lot of unrequited love quotes because this boy is PINING. I did add the quote, “may the calm in you win over the chaos around you” because he’s like the opposite of bobby he’s the rock in the choppy ocean like he stays calm all the time and idk we don’t know a whole lot about him so I didn’t have a whole lot to go on.
EUGENE MY BABY BOY I could not find ANY of him on Pinterest (where I make these) like y’all we gotta lock in and post some Eugene to Pinterest anyway I added some orange postage stamps from the Philippines and included the phrase “mahal Kita” which means “I love you” in tagalog i did also add every Eugene image I could find what about it. I made him orange because Jesse already had yellow and I do see Eugene as yellow but I wanted each character to have their own color and he ended up rocking the orange so good for him. Added a goldfish cracker cuz I think he likes gold fish cuz his you get siblings eat them all the time so they’re always in the house therefore he eats them a lot too
Harvard is purple to me. I don’t know why. He is purple. I added some of those aesthetic definition things because he seems like the type to hang those up in his future minimalistic apartment lol. I added fencing elements into his unlike any of the others because I found a pretty stained glass one I liked and then it kept suggesting them and then I found that one picture of the fencing mask on the Christo redentor statue and I added it cuz I think he’s Brazilian idk
ah. Nicholas. I made him a silly little rockstar girlfriend one I did add a lyric from music to watch boys to (I live to love you and I love to love you) that I thought he would listen to while watching Seiji fence and be like “shit why am I listening to this I don’t like him FAH”
Seiji Katayama is old money yacht party pearl necklace striped umbrella summer in Italy. Need I say more? I added a lot of butterflies because they symbolize change and metamorphism and I feel like metamorphosis is a huge part of his character like he goes through a lot of transformations (before Jesse/after Jesse, before France/after France, before Nick/during Nick, etc) also i support suicidal Seiji with all my heart tell me that boy has not stared at knives and his parent’s pills thinking “I could do it. I won’t, but I could” and then convincing himself he actually isn’t suicidal and that thoughts like that are normal
wrote way more than expected and accidentally added a character analysis for a few of them? Also yes, I did add an “admit one” ticket to Eugene (cuz he’s the only one in the actual team who isn’t mainly shipped with someone else on the team) and Aiden (because he thinks he’ll always be alone and self sabotages) what about it
wow I put way too much effort into this lol also feel free to download these I use them as a rotating Lock Screen like feel free I wouldn’t post them if I didn’t want them to be used yk
