I've always wanted to make a little intro post, so perhaps today will be the day! Hiya, hey, I go by "Lyen" or "Lynher," and thank you for visiting my page!
On most social media, I am a private account main and am a huge lurker of fandom spaces! Being public intimidates me, but Tumblr doesn't have a private account option, LOL. However, I do intend on using Tumblr as my outlet to engage and ramble about medias I enjoy, so perhaps this will be good for me.
I enjoy using Tumblr as a space for me to primarily drop any art or ramblings (headcanons) that I create for characters of the media I like. Sadly, this can be quite uncommon because my most persistent and prevalent obsessions are my own OCs, which I sparsely posted online in various different locations.
âŠThat is to say that most of my energy and art goes into my OCs, but any fandom works that I am proud of will be redirected here! What a long-winded way to say that my Tumblr page is a space dedicated to my fandom artworks and occasional ramblings </3. Once again, I thank you for reading, and I hope my works interest you!
some dandy's world gijinkas of characters i like :]
headcanons and extended text beneath the "read more" section!
my design thoughts (...IF you can even call it that!) for goob and scraps!
goob is the Fluffy craft... therefore his hair MUST be floofy! scraps is the Paper craft. i always envisioned her with a dark, choppy (like paper) bob.
goob has 1 monolid and 1 double eyelid! they're meant to emulate his silly O_o face!
scraps has stickers over her face and hair clips of assorted shapes in her hair! (paper craft things... it makes sense 2 me!)
goob's natural eye color is brown (the same shade as his roots and eyebrows), but he wears red and blue contacts! the stars on his cheeks are also stickers! he's matchin' with scraps x]!
i also headcanon them both with the vietnamese-chinese-american beam, because i am a goob one trick pony and i like to hit my favorites with my ethnicity beam đââïžđââïžđââïž
...
yatta's turn now!
her hair is choppy just like scraps, but maxed out to the highest degree! i still imagine it being incredibly soft, though! i want to run my hands through her bangs to reveal her eyes....... WHICH BRINGS ME TO THE NEXT POINT!
she has super overgrown bangs that cover her eyes, but this is what i imagine her eyes to look like that "nobody: people with brown eyes when the sun hits their face at the perfect angle:" meme HAHA
i didn't do a very good at showing this, but she wears 2 sets of leg warmers. 1 pair around her legs and the other hair around her arms! she's a little quirky like that <3
she's also covered head-to-toe with bandaids and bandages! she's yatta the pinata⊠the object you beat up with a stick :(. she's always getting hurt!
...
bassie's design was super inspired by friend, river's, bassie gijinka!! she's so gorgeous. i love her so much!
...
bonus toon goob i drew with one of my oc! thank u for reading ;D!
hello there, @alevolpe... i have been a fan of your work for a little bit, and i love your portrayal and headcanons of the characters sm!
i always wanted to doodle your version of minako, and the opportunity came when i saw that you reblogged one of my older posts! thank you so much for the kind words, and i hope i could do her somewhat justice!
GOSHHH, you are making my revisit my old posts from 4 years ago, huh? /lh!
world's most embarrassing thing ever, jdkflsdf. NOT EVEN SURE IF I AGREE WITH HALF OF THE STUFF I USED TO THINK! i think i was teasing her for moving around so sporadically. ALL THE MOVIES ARE ACTUALLY LIKE THIS NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT...
the rooftop reinako scene was so EVERYWHERE HAHA. they went from point a to point z in the span of under 3 minutes, LOL. - i'm makin' fun of it, but it's actually quite endearing to me. i love this media with all my heart.
i am brain rotting really, really bad right now so, naturally, tumblr is my outlet ahahahahhaha.
urmmmm. reinako thoughts and headcanons. mainly minako-centric because i have clear favoritism towards my favorite child.
lemme spitball some of my lighter headcanons first because they're probably easier to digest.
minako is PAN (to me). NOT BI, GAY, OR STRAIGHT, BUT PAN! i'm so adamant about this headcanon, LOL.
i deadass forgot if i assigned this to REI 4-5 years ago, and frankly, i'm much to embarrassed to check because my old self is cringe, but mina's a bit of a catch. rei is a dreamboat and mina is a catch, actually. i think people want both of em HAHA.
she's the goddess of love and beauty. by default, she's conventionally attractive.
and rei is rei, LOLLL. (insert the manga frame of her eating.) ikemen. i rest my case.
okay. i have thoughts about this, but they're kinda aimless. regardless, i think it's real neat that mina has multiple aspirations (one of em being volleyball and the other wanting to be an idol. das cute!)
...
I SAYYYY minako is hard to read. (insert that one tweet i love sm about stoic but expressive x appears cheerful but true emotions are hard to read), but REI IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION.
this is part in due to rei being rei. (she's a psychic and she's just naturally good at reading n' understanding people. BUT! (and this is the self-indulgent, mushy part of me talking) âŠthis is also minako⊠that's her princess, bro⊠they r each other's princesses. i think she'd be extra attentive to her.
rei would be doing her own thing. maybe medicating or miscellaneous shrine chores when she feels minako approach her. without even turning around, she can sense her intentions. she's upset. she wants to see me. something like this!
i also think she'd be extra attentive BECAUSE mina's that silent griever type. (this is a headcanon i will DIE on.) âŠSHE CARES⊠SHE CARES SMMMMM. that's her beloved, bro. (sorry for being mushy on main. i am, unfortunately, very cringe.)
...
something about rei being the more possessive one out of the two. (that crystal animated scene of the manga where rei puts her arm over minako is so, so awesome. i love how smug rei looked in that scene. THAT'S HER GIRL!!!
i should probably add here that my characterization of rei is a mix between her different iterations. she's a hot-headed character and very, very proud! (martians are proud beings!) she's proud of her abilities and proud of her loved ones. she'd be so proud of (1) her partner and (2) of who her partner is.
there's this really vivid and cute scene i keep picturing in my head where all the inner senshis are a bit older (drinking age) and they're chilling in this booth. reinako's sitting next to each other, and minako's slumped against rei's shoulders with a closed eye smiling expression like (âÂŽâĄ`â) and rei leans back with an expression like the TikTok proud emoji. they r both a littol flushed from drinkin' hehe.
^ i wanna draw this when i have time. i wanna get cuteness aggression from my own art, LOL.
...
regarding pda, i think it depends. i can see rei being both comfortable and "ehh" about it. touch is an interesting topic! i think generally speaking, she'd prefer that people don't touch her, but naturally, boundaries with friends and other people are different than with your partner!
i think she might start off kinda indifferent, maybe a little (uïżŁ^ïżŁ), but, again, i headcanon her to be a bit prideful, so eventually, she's ( ĂčáĂș), HAPPILY slinging her arm over mina hehe. and mina. she's very comfortable with touch! super openly affectionate!
the stuff i posted on here years ago... i never look back at it out of sheer embarrassment of who i was 2-4 years ago, but i fear my recent sailor moon ramblings are going to force me to look back..... AUGHHHHGH /lh
reinako are sun and moon characters, but rei is the sun and minako is the moon...
i'm just sayin'! you know⊠like fire. mars. fiery, hot-head rei. burning and passionate like the sun. and minako, quiet, silent griever. the /decoy princess for the moon/, cursed to never be loved. lonely. i just think it fits, heh.
revisiting sailor moon and thinking about how much i miss these characters. one thing led to another and i just had to write down my thoughts of minako (the character ever).
these are all of my personal headcanons, and i'm very well aware that they might be a little inaccurate and/or excessively self-indulgent, but i wanted a little place to air out my thoughts, so i'm making use out of my tumblr.
thank you very much if you decide to read through this and humor me and and thoughts!
i can't even lie. i feel like the more i like a character, the more i tend to mischaracterize them because i really like it when my faves are vulnerable and a little bit pathetic like a sad kicked puppy... SO NATURALLY. i feel like all of my favorite characters they are their own characters but they end up having this ASPECT to them that is entirely self-indulgent from my headcanons.
...maybe it's true though. maybe i'm right. (cope). with minako, i feel like how i truly see her is one thing and then the self-indulgent part of my brain sees her in a different light and i don't know... i think it works either way!
i think that she is, at her core, a very lonely individual but the way she presents herself is definitely as a golden retriever, sunshine baby, BUT this is not to say that she âfakesâ her personality.
i think that all sides of her is truly her authentic self. THIS is herself! she is a deeply angsty and lonely person but she is also this golden retriever. it's a contradiction but two things can be true at once.
i don't think that she's angsty in the sense that âoh, i'm so sad, but i put on a face because i can't express my true emotions đ„șđ„șđ„ș!â that's not minako. at least to me.
in my personal opinion, she's more of âthe person i present myself as is who i want to be and the person i want to put forth into the world.â
she truly is this loving and silly girl, but then there are moments of vulnerability, and you get to see this other side of her. itâs not necessarily the side that she âhides,â but the side that the world doesnât get to see very often because itâs not⊠necessary.
but you get to see it in the moments where she has to make tough decisions. like when her sailor v past comes up and⊠you know. she had to kill all those people in london because sailor moon wasn't awakened yet. that's trauma right there, bro.
gosh, i love the moments where we get to see her be solemn and quiet, because that's the part of her you don't get to see very often. do you see how quiet and solemn she gets? she's such a quiet griever.
she's this loud and âannoyingâ person, but when she's vulnerable, she's quiet. she grieves quietly because she doesn't want this to be the side of her that people know her as; she wants to be a ray of sunshine someone that lowkey will get your nerves because âwhy are you so loud and annoying???â âŠthis other side of her is so precious. does she know how much she is loved? minako, you are so, so loved.
i also want to add and i don't know how to else to word this and i feel like this can very easily be misconstrued, but just because she is âdumbâ doesn't mean she's also not smart! i think she is highly emotionally intelligent. this girl can switch between being silly and fun to quickly becoming serious when the moment needs it! these different sides of her are so important to me! together, they all accumulate to be minako aino, my favorite character of all time.
my friends tricked me into believing that i was kind of funny, so it's everybody else's problem now. crime syndicate boss ceo alpha vampire sophia laforteza amirite?
HEAVILY inspired by one of riribibi_'s skits! she is my biggest inspiration for comedy of all time đ„č
âThe girls looked really ruthless and cruel in the pilot but they seemed so tame and normal in the actual pit girl hunt!!â yeah itâs almost like the pilot was showing us the way the world would perceive their actions as monstrous and unimaginable, but when we found out the context and saw what they had gone through, we understood that it was multilayered and we saw through the idea that they lost their minds and turned evil. Itâs almost like nuance is the whole point. Itâs almost like they were never evil they were just hungry??
