An: romance or just friends, up to you. This is my Gale romance tav Yoomee.
Tw: controlling family, confinement, class gap
Masterlist
Yoomee wasn't quite nobility, but also wasn't quite a commoner. Her father came from a noble family, but fell in love with her mother, a wizard for his family. She grew up very well off, her father being promised the title since he had no sisters. Because of this, you met her. You are a commoner who, luckily, gained a role as the house’s guard. She would go to the garden every day and read you some of her favorite books. It wasn't a lot, but soon she was leaning against you and showing the illustrations.
One day she comes by, skipping like she always does, but this time without a book in hand. Instead she was carrying a small canvas and some paints, “I want to paint you!”
“As you wish.” You stutter, standing straighter.
She was always trying new things, she was by far the most spoiled and outgoing drow you'd ever met. Her eyes always sparkled when she wasn't trapped in that dusty house.
Just as Yoomee gets everything set up a loud, booming voice echoes through the mushrooms, “Yoomee Bluirren, what do you think you are doing?”
It was her grandfather. After he'd suffered socially when his son fell for her mother, he'd been hard on her too. She was to stay inside the house until a proper match had been made for her. He couldn't risk her falling in love with some guard.
“Just painting.” She answered, adjusting her canvas to face you.
“You're with that guard again.” He shouts, finally turning the corner, “Get back inside.”
She goes to argue, but you shake your head just enough for her to see. You don't want to get in trouble let alone her. Yoomee's bottom lip trembles as she packs up her assortment of paints and brushes. With her head down she follows her grandfather back inside.
You don't see her for a week at least. Without her, the days start bleeding together, boredom consuming every minute. You hear a window open above you and a basket slowly drop into view. Yoomee leans out of the library window and waves. She glances over her shoulder several times as the basket lowers into your hands. Inside is a painting of you, obviously from memory as it has you against the castle wall, and a small pastry shed snuck from the kitchen.
You glance up at her as she grins wildly, “I'm gonna fight for you. I'm not giving up until I can come back out again!”
You simply nod, saying anything could give the two of you away. She was already risking the little bit of freedom she had left. You take the gifts and place a small crystal flower and your own handkerchief in her basket. She pulls them up and her smile shifts to one of longing.
“He's going to be gone tomorrow… I'll meet you for lunch.” She rushes back into the room and slams the window closed.
The next day at mid day, the window opens again. A thick rope falls directly in front of you and Yoomee climbs down. The basket from the day before is held in the crook of her elbow. She huffs once she finally reaches the rocks.
“I brought lunch.” She holds up the basket like it's a prize.
She divides the food, roasted chicken, carrots, and greens with waterdhavian cheese and between thick butter buns. She brought vegetable broth with mushrooms, beef, and squash, a few apples, berry tarts, and a carafe of wine. You eat, take a small bite of the dessert as it was very tart.
She isn't able to stay long, the two of you hear footsteps coming from the front of the castle, “Keep the rest. Take it home.”
She gathers the empty containers and throws them in her basket. She climbs the rope as quickly as she can before pulling it up after her. She was surely getting in trouble for this later, yet the smile on her face told you she didn't care. Another guard rounds the corner, looking at you suspiciously before turning and going back. You look back up and grin at the now closed window. Sneaking around was kind of fun.
Do your ocs in the band have religions? Did they switch religions at any point? How did they find/turn to that religion?
AN: good question!
Nayeli grew up atheist, but in high school converted to Baptist Christianity. She was out partying at a bar in her hometown, Amarillo, Texas, one night with a fake ID. She walked by a man praying for strangers on the street, and despite her friends trying to drag her away, she stopped. She was buzzed and something about the way he talked to her made her ask to be prayed for. Nayeli told him a bit about her family, her younger parents neglect, and her desperate attempts for affection. He prayed for her, and she broke down crying. After that night she bought a Bible and started reading. She found comfort in God and has been Christian ever since. Because of her faith, the band never uses curses in their lyrics.
A'yakwa and Dyami grew up atheists. A'yakwa still hasn't converted to any, but Dyami has started listening more to Nayeli and is curious about Christianity.
Piav grew up Catholic, but has since moved away from Catholicism. He still believes there is a god of some kind, but does not fully agree with the Catholic church.
Orenda grew up and continues to be animistic. Animism is the belief that all things, including plants, animals, rocks, rivers, etc have souls or conscious life.

Orenda has her licence, but doesn't typically drive a car anymore. She does own a deep red Yamaha YZF-R7.
Dyami has his licence, but only drives if he has to. He normally drives A'yakwa's car or occasionally Piav's. He also has a motorcycle license, but sold his bike to start the band.

Dyami likes rock, r&b, and country. He doesn't listen much, he'd rather be out in nature listening to all the sounds.
Nayeli loves pop and r&b, a guilty pleasure that she doesn't tell people is, she loves metal also. She's down to listen to anything. She listens to music about an hour a day, the silence of the company of others is better sometimes.

Orenda used to vape, but gave it up after a year. She only drinks 'girly' drinks because she hates the taste of alcohol.
Dyami drinks only on special occasions, Christmas, birthdays, New Years. He tried a cigarette before, when A'yakwa bought her first and only pack, and couldn't breathe after so never tried again.

Dyami loves moose tracks.
Nayeli would pick orange sherbet over ice cream any day.
💭 What is your oc's MBTI, enneagram, and/or other personality aspects (if known/interested in)?
Diwata is INFJ, type D, and Type 7w8. She's very introverted until she starts to trust you, then she's slightly more outgoing. Her introverted-ness comes from her past, she was severely bullied as an orphan and when she was adopted her siblings were older by 10-8 years. Once you get underneath the stone faced sorcerer she's really kind of funny, witty, and lovable.
Orchid is ISFJ, type C, and Type 2w3. She's more of an introverted extrovert if I were to expand on her more. She's the kind of person to put everything down if the people she loves need help. She's driven by her feelings, but falls back on logic when things get a bit hairy.
Shizuka is ENFP, type B and Type 4w5. Despite being deaf she loves communicating and hanging out with people her age. She's the type to kill severely injure someone if they hurt a loved one.
Takeshi is ISTJ, type A and Type 5w4. He's also more of an introverted extrovert. He's more mellow and laid back. He's very emotionally intelligent, though he does have anger issues.
🎻 Does your oc play any instruments? what is their skill level (beginner/intermediate/advanced/virtuoso/etc)?
Diwata never really found an instrument that interested her. Her adoptive mom wanted her to try the piano, but she gave up after a month.
Orchid never played as a kid, but now as an adult is trying out the guitar. She's not great at it, barely beginner level.
Shizuka she will probably never try. She knows her deafness won't stop her, but she knows it will probably make it harder and doesn't want to be disappointed.
Takeshi was forced to learn something as a kid, and he decided to learn to play the Sanshin. He's advanced now as an adult and has begun learning other traditional instruments like the Shinobue.
🐶 Does your oc have any pets?
Diwata doesn't currently, but would love to have a grey main coon.
Orchid has a female sesame Shikoku named Umi. She takes her for walks every day and even takes her to work with her (before Shibuya) once a week.
Shizuka never had her own pet as a kid, but now she has a two. She has a female orange cat named Momo (peach), a male Japanese Terrier named Bāto (berry). She got them both when they were young, so they get along very well now.
Takeshi doesn't want a pet. He thinks he can't care for it well enough.
🐷 What is your oc's favorite animal?
Diwata's favorite animal is a silka deer.
Orchid's is a Siberian sable.
Shizuka's is a glass frog.
Takeshi's favorite animal is a tiger.
🎂 When is your oc's birthday? how old are they? what are their sun, moon, & rising signs (if known)? what about their tarot card, ruling planet, & ruling number (if known)? do they fit the typical traits of these sun, moon, & rising signs?
Diwata's birthday is May 15, 1990. As of 2018, she was 28, present day she'd be 36. I don't know about her sun, moon, etc.
Orchid's birthday is September 2, 1992. In 2018, she would've been 26, and present she is 34.
Shizuka's birthday is July 18, 2002. In 2018 she would be 16, present day she's going to be 24.
Takeshi's birthday is November 5, 2000. He was 18 in 2018, and will be 26 present day.
🥯 What does your oc's typical breakfast look like? do they usually eat breakfast?
Diwata typically eats easy meals like Tamago kake gohan.
Orchid likes to start her day with different kinds of miso soup, egg drop, pork, or even ginger.
Shizuka loves starting with regular miso soup or Dashimaki Tamago.
Takeshi prefers to start his days with smoked salmon or mackerel. He's not really picky as long as there's plenty of protein.
“You've been avoiding me.” You mumble, the second Toge sits down at the table.
He shrugs, he can't really answer you normally anyways. You sigh and move food around your plate. You knew it was gonna be hard being with someone who couldn't speak except in rice ball ingredients, but this was worse than you'd imagined. You glance up at him, he's shoveling food into his mouth to fill the awkwardness.
He finally meets your eyes, “Did I do something?”
“Fish flakes.” He answers quickly, rice falling from his full mouth, “Mustard Leaf.”
Though he'd been using this kind of language for a decade at least, you could tell he was struggling to say what he wanted to. It must be hard, you were able to understand him, but there was so much he couldn't say. You'd never heard him say he loves you, or that you looked pretty.
“Since our last mission… I just feel like you've been avoiding me, no worse than that, ignoring me completely.” You rush.
He opens his mouth and closes it again. He looked like a fish trying to breathe air. His rice ball language couldn't help here. Toge shoves his chopsticks into his mouth again and rummages around his pockets for his phone. As he types, you see him backspace several times.
When he finally turns it around, he looks upset. You squint to see I think it would be better if you stayed away from me.
Your heart breaks, of course. Your last mission together ended with you in the infirmary with Shoko. He'd shouted ‘Twist’ at the curse just as it had pulled you to it. You couldn't remember much else, but he definitely did. He not only had to finish exercising the curse, he had to run you back to Shoko.
“I-I… if it would make you feel more comfortable…”
You wanted to argue or tell him no, but the look on his face, the scars left on your arms and abdomen… maybe it was best, even if it broke you both. You'd never seen Toge cry, but now he was practically sobbing in front of you.
You stand, gathering your things and pat his shoulder, “I love you, Toge. Never forget that.”
🖊️ BALLPOINT PEN — does your oc have any tattoos? do they want any (more) tattoos?
Dyami doesn't currently have any tattoos, but isn't opposed to getting some. He feels like it throws off his whole stage vibe if he got anything visible.
🔱 TRIDENT EMBLEM — can your oc swim? do they enjoy swimming?
Swimming isn't his favorite activity, but he would never turn down an invitation.
🧡 ORANGE HEART — does your oc tend to prioritize family or friends?
Friends mostly, besides his sister. His parents were pretty neglectful and he never really got to know his extended family since they lived so far away. At this point his friends are his family.
9: Would your OC enjoy fake Haunted Houses/Mazes? What about real haunted places? Do they believe in supernatural activity?
11: Is your OC disabled (mentally or physically)? Do they use any aids?
🐢: Their Mario Kart Main what is it/what would it be? Smash Bros main?
🍕: Is your OC a pineapple on pizza person?
An: I'll be doing this for my JJK Ocs since I'm weirdly involved with them rn.
9: Would your oc enjoy fake Haunted houses/mazes? What about real haunted places? Do they believe in supernatural activity?
Diwata isn't scared of much so haunted houses/mazes really don't bother her, though she's never actually been to one. Her job is to literally go into "haunted" places and deal with it, so yes she'd go in, but wouldn't be happy about it.
Orchid hates the idea of haunted houses. The idea that ghosts and stuff really exist is not the most fun idea. She's now a sorcerer she has to go in and take care of them, but she refuses to go alone.
Shizuka despises haunted houses and mazes. Why would someone want to be scared on purpose? Real haunted places intrigued her. As a sorcerer she likes being able to do what she can and really isn't bothered by the real stuff.
Takeshi loves haunted houses and the adrenaline that comes with it. He doesn't find the appeal of real haunted places and used to not believe in ghosts or things like that.
11: is your oc disabled (mentally/physically)? Do they use an aid?
Diwata has a lot of scar tissue which makes it hard to move sometimes. She's had depression and anxiety in the past, but her anxiety has gotten better as an adult.
Orchid is probably my most mentally and physically healthy character. She had a few mental health problems in college, mostly thoughts of worthlessness, but now is fairly confident and strong.
Shizuka is deaf and struggles with depression. She uses hearing aids, but more times then not it's just vague static/fuzzy like sounds when people talk. Her depression stims from her family thinking the world won't accept her and pushing her away from what she desires. When she was scouted for Jujutsu High, her mom told her she wouldn't be going, that they couldn't accommodate her deafness.
Takeshi had to have therapy for his anger issues. With the therapist and an outlet, martial arts, he's much more calm now. While in the Culling Games he became paranoid and anxious. He was being attacked at every turn. Post Culling Games, he has some PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) from killing other people.
🐢: their Mario kart what is/could be their main? Smash Bros main?
Diwata would pick Yoshi in Mario Kart. Kind of a basic choice, but she thinks he's cute. She never wins against Gojo anyways (headcannon he plays Cat Peach). In Smash Bros she switches between Bayonetta and Greninja.
Orchid's pick depends on who she's playing. With her siblings she'll play Rosalina. With the other sorceress she mains Dry Bowser. Her go to in Smash Bros is Palutea.
Shizuka doesn't really have a "main", but if she were to have to pick one it would be Waluigi. Mewtwo and Fox McCloud are her top two picks for Smash Bros.
Takeshi is super basic when picking a character in Mario Kart. He only ever plays Mario. In Smash Bros he only plays Kazuya.
🍕: is your oc a pineapple on pizza person?
Diwata is a huge fan of pizza, the ease of making it, but the idea of pineapple on it makes her feel sick.
Orchid is open to trying it, but isn't going to go out of her way to order it.
Shizuka doesn't mind it. She tried it once at a school function because it was the only kind left when she got there.
Takeshi loves it, but wouldn't tell a soul about it.
if your ocs were mythical creatures, what would they be?
An: I don't normally post asks immediately, but I know who asked this bc they were sitting right next to me when they did it...
Masterlist
Diwata
Tanuki. Now the animal is real, but in Japanese folklore they bring luck, hospitality, and generosity. They're often depicted wearing a straw hat.
Alternatively, if we were to go beyond creatures she could be similar to Bishamonten. He is the god of warriors and is the protector of the righteous. He brings luck in battles and personal endeavors as well as wards off evil.
Orchid
Jorōgumo. Though she doesn't lure men, her technique is illusionary. I think it's a good fit as far as Japanese folklore goes.
If I were to go based on her other heritage, English, she'd be a pikie. Pikies often led travelers astray and lost in the woods.
Shizuka
Shizuka would be a Kage-onna. Though she doesn't have a lot of grief, her life is a pretty tragic one. Deaf since birth, constantly seen as less than, trying to do her best and still failing.
Takeshi
Oni feels like a pretty simple answer, but probably the best fit. I know the person that asked this knows what the Oni are. Though from the depiction we've seen it's a bit different. Oni are ogre-like creatures with horns that wield large iron clubs. They have insane brute force power and often clash with samurai.
Amara
Amara is a wood elf, but again, elf feels like the easy way out. If I had to pick something different... A Moss Maiden. Their lives are dependent on the health of the forest and as a ranger I feel like that's a good fit.
Zorah
She's a half elf... So another cop out answer. Jengu are very loyal and protective of their people. She's a paladin half high elf, so this feels like a solid answer.
Yoomee
What can I say... She's drow... Anyways, Huli Jing from Chinese folklore. They are known to trick and seduce people. She doesn't try to seduce people, but with her noble background and outgoing personality it's hard to ignore.
Eztli
As strange as it sounds she'd probably be most similar to El Chupacabra. She has blood manipulation in her universe, and the creature drains the blood of its victims.
Atiya
Atiya is half Middle Eastern and half Chinese, so I'll give her one from each. Qilin, deer like unicorns, are symbols of justice, serenity, and prosperous times.
Parī is a fairy-like creature who often guides travelers to blessings. Alternatively, Shadhavar. Another deer/unicorn creature, though this one's hollow horns play beautiful melodies to calm animals and humans.
Glaucio
A siren is my first answer. In Portuguese folklore, Zashio, is the most similar. They can take form of a half woman half fish or handsome fishermen. They seduce their victims into marriage, though they often end terribly and the Zashio go back to the river.
Pasha
God's cow, or ladybug. Yes, yes, ladybugs are real, I hear you okay? But many real animals have folklore associated because of their elusiveness. It is considered a lucky bug, especially for harvest amongst many cultures. Though this doesn't quite fit Pasha's powers, if felt I could give them a slightly less tragic creature.
Saraswati
She's already a Cecaelia. She has the potential to be even more distractive, similar to the Timingila. Though it resembles more like a shark or whale than an octopus lady.
Helia
Probably a Nymph. Her family is of Greek decent and she loves gardening. So a forest nymph feels right.
Ofira
As unglamorous as it sounds, she'd be a Golem. In Hebrew folklore they were often depicted or described serving struggling farmers and communities by doing heavy labor.
An: pet names my ocs would call you and their cannon partners!
TW: some of these names have very specific meanings that correlate to their backstory, so if you've read that some of these names are kinda sad/happy/healing

AN: this is my Stardew oc on a farm with my sister.
Masterlist
Helia was the result of a drunken mistake. Her parents had only been dating for three months when her mom fell pregnant. They quickly got married and had Helia. Their marriage didn't last long, two months after birth her mom disappeared and sent divorce papers from halfway across the country. Her dad raised her alone, without support, except from his father. Helia visited Grandpa's farm every summer until she was 16 and got a job. It was the easiest way for her dad to work overtime while leaving her with someone he trusted.
After getting the farm with her cousin Feray, she started mining, but later went on to do the farming. It was a lot more relaxing.
AN: obviously not canon, just kinda vibing and having fun. I DID NOT pick flowers based on symbolism, I picked from vibes and looked up symbolism when I was done...
Masterlist
Iori Utahime
Ume (plum blossom). Part of her technique deals with dance and I think she'd find them very beautiful, though common.
Ume symbolizes resilience, perseverance, and hope.
Suguru Geto
Magnolias. Specifically Bigleaf Magnolias. I think he'd pick these because of their size and their trees.
They symbolize dignity, nobility, and perseverance which I think he'd find very fitting.
Ieiri Shoko
Shiso, a common herb in Japan. They're small and dainty flowers, but they grow in groups. I think she'd like that they're edible and pretty.
Hojiso, the flower, symbolizes elegance and seasonal awareness.
Satoru Gojo
Ballon Flower. It's small, dainty, and purple.
It symbolizes endless love, honesty, obedience, and the anticipation of good fortune, often signifying lasting, devoted friendship.
Kento Nanami
Salvia. It's easy to care for and pretty. I think his main reason to pick it was how easy it is to care for, its beauty was secondary.
They symbolize wisdom, healing, longevity, and protection. He probably could've used a lil bit of that...
Yu Haibara
Ligularia. It's bright and colorful just like him. I think he'd find it enchanting.
The flowers symbolize resilience, vitality, hope, and energy.
Takuma Ino
Jade vine. I think he'd like how different they are. The color is vibrant and something uncommon.
The flowers represent strength, resilience, beauty, and renewal.
Aoi Todo
Sakura (Cherry blossom) I just feel he'd like a common flower and love spring.
The blossoms symbolize sacrifice, beauty, and renewal. Modern representations depict it as a symbol of happiness and positivity.
Toge Inumaki
Anemone. He'd like all of the colors and how big they get.
They represent delicate beauty, anticipation, and protection alongside fragile love, forsaken affection, and death.
Maki Zen'in
Lungwort. They're resilient and beautiful, something she finds important.
Lungwort symbolizes healing, protection, and renewal.
Megumi Fushiguro
Mourning Widow Geranium. It's dark and elegant, just like Megumi.
The flower represents sorrow, mourning, and rememberance.
Nobara Kugisaki
Nasturtium. They're simple and fast growing. As much as she likes luxury something easy to care for works better for her lifestyle. She'd probably tell everyone her favorite is Gold of Kinabalu Orchid (roughly $6kUSD)
Nasturtium represents victory in struggle, patriotism, and conquest. Gold of Kinabalu Orchid symbolizes extreme luxury, exclusivity, and rare beauty.
Yuji Itadori
He wouldn't have a favorite flower until you asked him, then he'd just answer with the first one that pops into his head.
I'm scheduled all the way to the end of August and am currently working on my birthday prompts!
That being said, hopefully (🤞🏻) soonish I will be doing some big big things. So if you guys have any requests it might take a little longer to do them!
I'm going to be finishing up the stuff I have. If you'd like a To-Do List let me know!
I'll keep you guys posted for sure!
Bees signing out until next week! (Not literally signing out, more just not posting...)

Masterlist
Amara
She loves foxglove. As a ranger she knows it's toxic to both humans and animals, but she can't deny its beauty. Foxglove symbolizes the duality of magic and danger, intuition, protection, and creativity.
However, I associate Amara with Vervian and Red Spider Lilies.
Veverian represents love, protection, purification, healing, and luck. It's also often associated with vampires. Red Spider Lillies symbolize finality, death, and rebirth. In Japanese culture they are seen as evil or cursed.
Her story is one of love and healing which was lost when Astarion ascended and made her his spawn. Now she basically floats through life.
Zorah
Selûne's Tear is her favorite. She is a Paladin and I think she finds the flower very beautiful.
I associate her with Violets. They represent modesty, faithfulness, and spiritual wisdom.
Zorah grew up with just her human mother before traveling to the Feywilds and meeting her high elf father. She became the picture of faithfulness and strength, becoming a knight for the high elves. She wasn't able to be nobility like her father, but wanted to devote herself to him still.
Yoomee
Yoomee finds every flower beautiful in its own way, but Firethorn always stuck out to her. The flower represents protection, strength, resilience, and prosperity.
She's associated with Purple Crocuses. They symbolize dignity, pride, success, and royalty.
She grew up in a high ranking household, borderline nobility. She trained and learned and became a jack of all trades. Her parents take pride in her achievements and successes.
Diwata
Her favorite flower is Tsubaki (Camelia). It represents longevity, deep love, loyalty, and strength.
Diwata is associated with Cerinthe. Protection, affection, and good luck.
Luck is her technique, without it she would be in a drastically different place than she is. Her whole life she spent wanting protection and love, but at 8 she finally got that. Now she works to make everyone feel the same thing.
Orchid
Despite her name, she doesn't care for orchids. Her favorite flower is Tassel Flower (Love-Lies Bleeding). The flower symbolizes resilience, beauty, and auspicious health.
I associate her with Carnations. The flowers symbolize fascination, distinction, and love. Colors adding extra meanings.
Orchid grew up in a loud, but stable home. She learned the value of hard work, love and dedication. To me she is the embodiment of love, platonic and romantic.
Takeshi
He loves Daylilies. They represent "forgetting worries", maternal love, and the fleeting beauty of life.
But he's associated with Protea. It represents diversity, transformation, courage, and strength.
He grew up just fine, stable house, lots of extra-ciriculars, but after October 31, 2018 his whole life changed. Takeshi had to be stronger than he'd ever been, more brave, more everything. And he succeeded, despite his fears.
Shizuka
Her favorite flower is Spring Ephemerals. They symbolize hope, renewal, and the fleeting beauty of life.
Bluestar (Amonia) represents her best. It's represents hope, renewal, endurance, and strength.
The flowers are small and delicate looking, but they're resilient, survinging through droughts and being able to grow in different soil types. Shizuka was born deaf, leading her on a completely different road than everyone in her family. Despite it all she persisted and became a strong sorcerer and friend.
Eztli
Eztli always loved Laelia Orchids. They represent strength, beauty, luxury, and love.
She is represented by Lily of the Valley and Angel's Trumpet.
Angel's Trumpet often symbolize dangerous and toxic power, transformation, and death. Lily of the Valley symbolize returning happiness, purity, humility, and new beginnings.
She was abused from the day she was born. All she'd known was violence and when she finally escaped her father, violence found her again. It was a never ending cycle of danger and pain until she was finally arrested. The SDN gave her a second chance and showed her life beyond pain and suffering.
Atiya
Her favorite flower and the one that represents her are Hydrangeas. They symbolize heartfelt emotion, gratitude, and understanding.
As a dispatcher for the SDN, she is one of the most understanding to her team. Atiya knows she's lived a privileged life and is forever grateful to her parents for that.
Pasha
They like the Siberian Fawn Lily best. The flower represents renewal, optimism, and rebirth.
Aspen represents them best. The flower symbolizes protection, grief, and overcoming unknown fears.
Pasha moved to The States at 5 from Russia. Despite living in the US most of their life they found themselves missing home. They got into the wrong crowd searching for answers and wound up in jail. They want to do better, they want to find where they belong, but a deep rooted fear keeps Pasha from finding what they're looking for.
Saraswati
Her favorite flowers are Eelgrass and Sea Purslane. Eelgrass symbolizes resilience, hidden tranquil strength, and ecological interconnectedness. Sea Purslane represents resilience, protection, and endurance.
I associate Saraswati with Creeping Phlox. It represents harmony, unity, and "our souls are united".
She is a Cecaelia and believes that the world, nature, and all living beings are connected. She wants world peace and harmony. She thinks the world depends on her and her kind to make it happen.
Glaucio
His favorite flower is Strawberry Tree. The flowers symbolize resilience and the enduring beauty of nature.
He's associated with a combination of Lotus, Black Dahlia, Black Rose, and Primrose. Lotus represents strength, resilience, and healing; however, Black Roses symbolizes "You are my obsession", Black Dahlia represents obsession, tragedy, and unfulfilled obsession, while Primrose represents "I can't live without you".
Because of Glaucio's trauma, and the outcome because of it I couldn't just pick one. He endured abuse from a woman he barely knew and it twisted his mind in the worst way. He's almost lost all of his empathy and emotions, but because of his team at SDN, he has a second chance.
