It's to carry all of that.... circuitry... and sensitive electronics... or something... yeah, totally! (referring to Screwlitta being so caked up)
Dialing back to the conversation of Angel using her bio-lights as part of performances, I was initially just taking the piss when I brought the idea up, but now that I'm seriously thinking about it, it could be really cool if she actually did use them to actually kinda like, slip subtle messages that relate to the song's themes in some way, as part of music videos, and perhaps some live performances of them, interweaving them with her moves on stage, even if only other Thalassians (or just people who are well-versed in their bio-light based secondary language) would actually understand.
other times she's just gonna be lazy and just do something which suits the ✨vibes ✨
Also I fucking adore the scenario of her using them as a way to sneaky a confession towards Pearl. It's such a simultaneously grand, yet also very private gesture to perform. I think PearlAngey's quickly becoming my favorite ship even though Pearl's only been here for barely a patch (it's probably mostly because they're both semi-aquatic beings, and I just freaking love love LOVE ocean/aquatic-themed character and just general race and cultural designs, they're always so stunning 😍)
Ngl it makes me really happy to know my fishies like my selfships and are genuinely interested in them, so thank you for this 😭
ALSO, even though Angel’s bioluminescence would (theoretically) only be understood by fellow Thalassians and seafolk, WHAT IF the flashing language was basically Morse code, so anyone who knows Morse code can technically understand Angel’s flashing. I say this because I know that there are HSR characters who would definitely know Morse code due to their occupation or background. Characters like Herta, Kafka, etc. because I would like to see their reactions when they understand the secret messaging in Angel’s lights.
Also it would just be funny if only Robin was left clueless in what is happening. Other HSR women understands the hidden messages in Angel’s concerts but poor Robin is left asking questions.
Constance, chuckling: Oh…Oh my…I can’t believe she said that.
Robin: What? What did she say?
Constance: That’s for you to figure out ;)
Robin is so mad lmao. Time to start learning Morse code I guess if she wants to understand what Angel is saying. I know you mentioned you liked the hidden messages only Pearl would understand, so perhaps despite Angel primarily communicating in Morse code, when it comes to her confession to Pearl; she flashes in an old, ancient language that only seafolk would know. The other HSR women who usually understand her flashing during concerts, are left confused during Angel’s confession as only Pearl can understand.
I just think that is so neat. Modern Thalassian language is just Morse code so everyone can understand it, but ancient Thalassian language can only be communicated between Angel and Pearl. It just adds another layer of intimacy and specialness for Pearl, knowing she is the only woman in the crowd who understands <3
