rosemary, sun, and love ( in unison ): SINCE IT’S SIMPLY FOR THE D.ICK, we have to do it. / @brightlikewukong & @gracedly
"Zarrin ! Come here, I'm bored and in a dire need of an occupation : tell me about your travels, I can't stand the silence. "
unprompted / temporarily closed.
‘ your grace, ’ she sighs, already feeling the start of a dull ache at her temples. ‘ i hope that someday, you’ll come to appreciate silence for the good it can give you. ’
THE GOOD IT COULD GIVE HER, really. for a moment, she closes her eyes in the hope of finding the respite she desperately craved. just a moment – a moment of silence, of peace, of time to herself. but yet again, she’s reminded that no such thing exists within these walls. it’s a small price to pay for her eventual success – her duty comes before all else. duty just happened to include entertaining a grown man with the impatience and eagerness of a child.
‘ i’m honored that you think my travels are worthy of your time. ’ with a deep breath, she opens her eyes and strides to the throne, settling at his feet. ‘ shall i tell you of the tree i found ? from a distance, its leaves appeared to be made of a gold so thin that light passed right through. ’ / @execratuscapra
Exactly what percentage of leg is Arvio?
69% leg, +/- 1%.
another point: on this blog ( and my others ), faunus were created in the image of the brothers grimm. humanity’s hatred/mistrust/fear of them stems from the brothers’ destruction before they left remnant. with his amnesia as well as being raised in vacuo, arvio has so far been spared the brunt of racism. zarrin, however, is fully aware -- this is one of the reasons why she dislikes leaving vacuo. this is one of the reasons why she’s wary of humans. this is one of the reasons why she refuses to be anything but proud of her heritage. she fully supports the belladonnas’ white fang. because of the relationships she’s built throughout her travels, she stops short of supporting sienna and especially adam.
i have yet to see the new r.wby episode but in this house, we stan polytheism. i’ll expand on this later but in the meantime: arvio and zarrin recognize the major arcana. zarrin honors nature spirits as well as spirits of the deceased. with her mythos being anubis, she has a tie to a being based on ammit. rosemary has a complicated history with a man who was posthumously granted immortality. she is his Voice to those dedicated to the religion that formed in the wake of his death.

handwriting can tell you a lot about a person. go here and share your character’s handwriting style !
since losing his memory, arvio has had to relearn spoken and written language. he’s a slow writer, preferring to sketch. while it was endlessly frustrating to learn something that came so easily to others, he was determined to succeed. even if the practice just made the days go by quicker.
among zarrin’s scant belongings is a set of writing instruments, securely wrapped. she’s found it easier and quicker to write in all caps. her letters are often large, unless she’s working on her detailed map of vacuo.
as a child, rosemary often envied her twin’s neater and more visually appealing handwriting. however, she now wouldn’t change her writing -- she finds that it reflects her personality. where would someone most likely find her scrawls ? in additions to pre-typed notes and the margins of ( ahem ) spicy novels.
