people after the recent asm chapters are rightfully so angry at how uncanny the similarities between jeremy and johannes are, what I'M worried about is because jeremy looks like his dad he needs to not age like him istg Orka when i catch you
During an argument between Ohara and her father, we see a dreamy image of Jeremy as an angel from Ohara's POV, dressed in blue and white, with a long red sash and a sword.
So what does it mean?
Guardian Angel: Ever since their early childhood, I believe that Ohara has seen Jeremy as her guardian angel of sorts (whether or not Jeremy himself is aware of it). We've seen glimpses of Ohara's life living with her father, before and after her mother died and we can only infer what her day-to-day life was like. She likely saw Jeremy, the boy she was politically engaged to, as her only way out from under her father's thumb. Although she didn't "love" Jeremy, being with Jeremy meant a freedom she never got to experience.
Red Cloak and Sword: The sword and red cloak Jeremy wears are symbols of his status as Captain of the Imperial Knights. They are righteous symbols of who Jeremy is- strong, compassionate, and most importantly, loyal.
Upward Gaze: Jeremy looks upward, focusing on somewhere elsewhere as Ohara looks at him. Jeremy was never focused on Ohara, and she knows this.
Locked to a Perch: Although winged, Jeremy's sash is enclosed in his perch. In religious context, a chained angel refers to fallen angels who've done wrong against God, and are waiting for their day of judgement. Not unlike Jeremy, who has "defied the Church" and is waiting for the Holy Trial to decide his fate.
Ohara sees Jeremy, a boy who has done nothing wrong in his life, being punished by a greater power, while she looks on, unable to defend him like he deserves. It's an awfully romantic and tragic vision which lets up more about Ohara than she reveals herself. She respects Jeremy so much for being a Good Man that she's willing to go against her father for him.
Hello! Can I have a little request? I wanna see what THEY ALL look like the modern era I was hoping you can post some pictures of it :>!
yes of course! (this account may look inactive, but i'm still very much a hardcore stepmarchen fan!)
also I am assuming they are all still VERY rich in this world. it may not be the modern version you were looking for... but here we go!
Shuri von Neuschwanstein
In a modern world, I think we would see a lot of similar elements from Shuri's romantic style! Things like softer, lightweight fabrics and lots and lots of ruffles!
She definitely has a spring color palette, so I think she would wear bright and natural tones- lots of greens, pinks, and yellow! Feminine, ethereal, and whimsical!
Don't forget the chokers too! I think she'd collect a lot of fun jewelry and whimsical pieces like ribbons.
Nora von Nuremberg
Nora is an interesting case because he wears a pretty wide range of clothes from super simple and practical to literal prince. I think this would also apply to his modern self!
Out with friends, I think he's the type to throw on a worn out tee and some jeans. Not thinking too hard, you feel me?
But when he's trying to impress... that's when he puts a little more thought into it. A crisp clean top, slacks, but nothing that's too outrageous.
Jeremy von Neuschwanstein
Given his personality, Jeremy would be pretty similar to Nora in that he usually doesn't think too much about fashion, but I do think his closet would be VERY influenced by Shuri's sense of style (she probably does a lot of shopping for him)
You would totally see a lot of old money styles, like Ralph Lauren. Tons of fine details. Like an embroidered collar, a pop of an accent color, some subtle jewelry.
With his sense of growing responsibility, I think Jeremy would stay away from overly "grunge" fashion. So tees might not be common for him.
Ohara von Heinrich
Ohara would absolutely be a faux old money girl, pressured by her father to always look sophisticated and worth their status
However! I also think she really suits that "cool girl" aesthetic. Especially on outings with Elias, I think she'd be able to let loose a bit.
With the Neuschwansteins, I think Ohara would be able to finally dress a little closer to her age (but not completely!), letting her hair down and such!
Theo von Bismark
OK so Theo! Our canonical fashionista. He's typically only seen in his royal garb, but I think with that amount of money, he'd be sporting a lot of designer clothing in the modern world.
And I feel like he'd wear a lot of bright and uncommon combinations. Like white-on-white because he loves to attract attention.
I'm also intrigued by the little ways his "feminine" or non-conforming style would translate into modern days. I think we'd see items like a clutch, ribbons, and silk accessories.
That's it for now! I was a little stumped on how I'd style the twins because they're so young... as well as Richelieu who's literally a priest! but lmk if anyone is interested in a part 2 (and who would you like to see!)
