weep not for me, dear lamb.

embrace the garden's gaze. witness the beginning and the end.

― 𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚈 𝚂𝙰𝚈 𝚃𝙷𝙰𝚃 𝚈𝙾𝚄'𝙻𝙻 𝚁𝙴𝙰𝙲𝙷 𝙿𝙰𝚁𝙰𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙴. independent, highly selective and low activity blog for headcanon-based black swan from honkai star rail.

do not steal any of my concepts, headcanons, and story. all of it was based on the bits and pieces of lore, tied together in a bow of my own creation. this blog is not suitable for anyone below the age of 18 and will not interact with minors, proshippers and comshippers. previously found on #blckswntm until it was nuked. worshipped by renata. graphics done by the amazing demonxseringfx.

𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘴𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺: @dupliciti, @shrineofprophecy, @etherealguard, @furiaei, @everlastiingiimmortals, @apocryphis, @chasersglow, @kohouri, @lykorises, @londonfallen.

💜 covers the study of: memories being the foretelling of the story, the storytelling through tarot cards, the fool and the priestess dancing together, memetic entities as ghosts, the vibrancy of the past, the worship of the days bygone, blessings of creation granted from birth, nihility as amnesia being the only sin, holy gospels being told within whispers of memokeepers, the existence of eden of the blessed insight within the garden of recollection.

say thank you black swan & take her dancing.

i think more characters should dance with her.

[blckswnstm]

if black swan wasn't such a nice person with usually better interests, she could be anyone's worst nightmare. because of memories. she'll know your deepest fears and concerns, and she can bring them into reality thanks to being so powerful as a memokeeper and emanator of fuli.

but she has class. and she has standards. and she has personal rules alongside fuli's rules.

and she cannot stand memosnatchers.

no one understands my love for every artist who draws black swan as scary/dangerous. :)

SPARKLE IS IN THE HI3 /MAIN STORY/ NOT COLLAB HOLY FUCKING SHIT THE QUEEN IS WINNING

[blckswnstm]

black swan never appeared with gallagher in the same scene because she'd figure out who he is just by looking at him and I think it was a massive loss. their interactions would've been incredible.

[blckswnstm]

I just think about someone thinking they can attack Black Swan and she is just walking so comfortably, so confidently, with a small smile on her face and when someone tries to attack her, a monster appears from out of nowhere and just /devours/ them. And that monster is create from the memories she collected, chuckling to herself like 'Come now, not only attacking a memetic entity with physical weapons is foolish, but you should know better than to act so rashly because I am kind.'

[blckswnstm]

black swan killed her father with a sword that was created from crystal her mother had and that's just my own black swan lore drop for the day. she made a 'deal with the devil' and ended the nihility's curse before it truly consumed the whole world. sadly, there wasn't enough memories left for the world to continue existing beyond garden of recollection.

if hoyo gives me hi3 kiana or elysia as units in hi3, i'm not pulling for anyone until then and i'm actively playing to save jades for either of them. fate who? i only know hi3.

[blckswnstm]

nothing funnier than black swan scaring people by her sudden appearance for shits and giggles

❛ i'm not drunk enough for this. ❜ 

❛ why is it whenever we see each other, you’re covered in blood? ❜

❛ i was wrong about you. ❜ 

❛ the first time i met you, i had no idea you'd mean this much. ❜

❛ you gonna be a good girl / boy for me? ❜

❛ i’m not afraid of you. ❜

❛ books mean more to me than people anyway. ❜

❛ i just wanted to say thank you for protecting me. ❜

❛ how about a kiss goodnight? ❜

❛ i don’t have time for distractions right now. ❜

❛ you shouldn’t be out here by yourself. ❜ 

❛ if i have to think about one more thing today, my head will explode. ❜

i'm just reminiscing (just stop reminiscing)

[blckswnstm]

no one talks about the INSANE religious themes of BOTH sunday and black swan in retrospective. you read black swan's story and it's christianity vs pagans in a sense, black swan's mother being a 'witch' while she is taken to the palace where church and king are the ruling people.

why aren't we talking about the religious underlying motifs of these two birds too they have so much to dive into.
