#i'm pretty sure...

it's hella ironic that dcst's characters—imo being the most iconic thing about this story second only to its science themes—are left as some of the most open-ended aspects of the story.

like yeah we got great character developments like chrome's and suika's, but that thing about a bunch of 21st century characters like hyoga and ukyo and even asagiri fucking gen not having full backstories? that's what i'm talking about—we know very little about a damn lot of them.

but you know what? i'm totally fine with that! more room for us as a fanbase to project headcanons and shit <3

and also it's just endearing to think about how, because of the stone world survival setting, it's this super diverse cast with weirdly specific specialties; of course you need a little bit of everything, and at early points, of course you don't need too many of each. that's what makes them such a colorful cast, made especially lovable because of the lesson that in science, contributions matter from people in every field with any talent. where they came from or who they used to be in the old world matters little. it's exactly the cast that this story needs.

hi friend!!

I need somebody with some patience

Summer comes, winter fades, here we are just the same

Raised myself for a million lies

When you left this town, your windows down, the wilderness inside
