How an outfit of an apprentice represents their teacher.

1. The girls' outfits look like they are meant for children who like to play in a garden, get dirty and are very active. It really shows how Qifrey views a proper childhood. They are shorter, made out of less fancy looking but probably more durable material.

Euini's outfit doesn't look very comfy, nor like it's meant for a child. It looks like he is supposed to be still, focus on study and represent Kukrow well among other witches in the Great Hall.

2. Qifrey's apprentices are not just little copies of him. Yes, he made sure that this familiar teacher-apprentice bond, that is so important to witches, is visible in their clothing. What's more, the blue capes not only reference Qifrey, but also other members of his "witch family" - Olruggio and Beldaruit. Still, they are not just small copies, his students are his own people.

loves teaching, won't admit it.

i would love to dump a ridiculous amount of kabru art on you guys, but art and I are going through a rough patch, so this is all you get 😭

y'all had BETTER treat the characters of colour with respect

i don't wanna see a single fanart whitewashing alaira, custas, jujy, or hiehart. i don't wanna see y'all hating on them for things y'all would let the lighter skinned characters get away with. i'd BETTER not see y'all straightening jujy's hair.
