PSA: Iâm totally fine with people making more blogs for the other six princesses but what Iâm less ok with is people treating them like theyâre just another OC of theirs.
AT LEAST look into what we see of the canon princesses AT LEAST know which one they are because I put a fuckston of work into fully explaining which one I thought Kourin was via this page and I have actual but few icons of her because these are real characters ok, at least put some effort into picking one because I made a whole damn page about explaining that.
I use my FC for more expressions and unless itâs a modern verse⊠and itâs totally fine to have a FC as long as youâre acknowledging certain things about said character.  Please respect these characters enough to remember what they actually look like and how they would behave.  They are not friends with Kougyoku automatically - in fact, they bad mouth her all the time from what weâve heard and unless that changes VIA copious amounts of roleplay like Iâve managed with a Kougyoku, please PLEASE try to act like the princesses would.  They are all younger than Hakuei: thatâs why she holds the title of first princess meaning at the beginning of magi they range from 21-17 years old.
But if not, then you can just make an OC! Â Say theyâre an OC! Â Iâm fine with interacting with OCâs but donât claim a canon character as your own if youâre unwilling to accept their very probable personality traits, image, and irrefutable facts.
and they are all married, itâs fine to have a few verses of them not but donât say their canon/main verse is single because THATâS NOT TRUE.
Ok look, I had to reblog this post once before because please donât turn the Kou girls into your OCâs. Â Just. Â Make. Â An. Â OC. Â If you want one. Â I put way too much damn effort into creating Kourin based around what we know in canon and itâs kinda spitting on my face to drag only your favorite facts into them. Â
You can make one of them and just have some facts remain in a different verse too, like Iâve got with Kourin learning archery, or her time at the palace before marriage but donât use the FC if thatâs your default verse. Â Donât use it if youâre not going to respect that canon facts about the characters: theyâre all married and theyâre all younger than Hakuei. Â
Donât turn real characters into OCâs where you make their background your own spin off... plucking one of them from their actual spot and status just to twist them around like everyone can still treat them as a canon-ish character when by taking away these facts, youâre taking away what little facts we have about them and what makes them actual characters in the series.
I even made a handy dandy about page for the girls to help out anyone interested in seeing the facts about them and developing them as the real characters they are.
IâM SORRY, IâM WAY TOO DAMN DEFENSIVE ABOUT ALL THE EFFORT IâVE PUT INTO GIVING KOURIN A PROPER PERSONALITY DESPITE WHAT LITTLE WE KNOW ABOUT THEM.... SO WHEN SOMEONE IGNORES THESES FEW FACTS, I GET UNHAPPY? Â Like I said: spitting in my face and the canon characters themselves. Â Just. Â Make. Â A full OC. Â By taking a real FC of one of them youâre trying to legitimize them, and that ainât gonna fly by me, Iâve done too much research about them and tried too hard to make Kourin work as an alternative to the canon Kourin.
