concept art . — Thrill Seeking Galoree Daze .
0. it's name is a play on the phrase 'Glory Days,' 'Galore' and 'Daze'
1. red shoes, white socks with ruffles sharing the top with red bows
2. i forgor the black frills at the bottom of the skirt 💀 the white is the petticoat there is also a corset, and attached is a golden chain tying the pocket watch* to it's uniform
3. a black button up shirt with sleeves closed at the wrists
4. a red cape with golden embroidery
5. the golden bough made it's mark on the Reader, which they only let show in their Magical Form. their hair became black as though it had been burned but remained in tact, with the underside of the hair glowing like the Bough itself
6. like it's hair, the Reader forces the Bough to dull its affect on their eyes to preserve their secret identity, making glowing gold appear as citrine instead of their natural eye color for the coolness
there were supposed to be like, mini decorative wings but i forgor and i dont wanna bother drawing them. would have been slenderish, sharp looking feathes, all black a la transformed hair, and gold outlines a la the cape and skirt
trivia .
Reader designed their form after Dante, in line with their fixation with Project Moon
the pocket watch was probably me being Outispilled tho
speaking of which—
* The Clock Towards Unending Glory .
the Reader's transformation item
the watch stores their grimoire so that the Reader can read up on anything that it has forgotten, but the watch also calculates how much magic—or rather—Cogito that the Reader has left in accordance to time spent in the sun and the hands turns back to zero as those seconds of sunlight are spent
thought the watch starts from zero and maxes out the hour of 12, the Reader could have more Cogito were it to give itself that time in the sun
ofc the Reader is too much of an emotional wreck to ever do that to themselves, and now they're in the City under the tight watch of the LCB. it... would be a while for that to be seen
it would also do the little shits good to live healthy lifestyles. that clock of always ticking down not only because or recharging charms, supressing the bough's mark, or nightly outings, but because they don't take care of their bodies so Cogito is always flowing in their veins to keep their body at better conditions than they are even working to maintain
Gold Eraze works on the same power system, he just doesn't have his own watch, so he learned how to detect how much Cogito he has left
trivia for Gold Eraze .
Gold Eraze's latter half of his name is a play on 'Erase' and 'Raze'. thought Golden Eraze flows off the tongue better imo, the Reader in-universe wanted to replicate how Anime and Manga can sometimes use English gramatically incorrect for the aesthetic
'Incandescence' is a term used by Galoree Daze in one of their incantations, but i never showed it nor made it
their woodpecker form is much like Firebird; golden eyes and jewel on his chest surrounding pitch black. like Firebird's breaching form, he is utterly golden his more Cogito-like form used to perform spells
as her hummingbird state, her colors are the shades of lemon yellows and whites
Gold Eraze uses he and her pronouns, but usage is split in caution prevent unmasking of identities
in the City, Gold Eraze has been given the abnormality name 'Our Golden Age I Had To Melt Away'
unlike most abnormalities, Our Golden Age is permitted to be outside of containment on the condition of good behavior in hopes of recovery for the mental state of the Reader
^^ like Reader hasn't now been isekai'd into the City
