I started thinking the Pacify ability was actually just Melinöe giving the world’s most complicated directions to these poor shades. She learned from the Reigen Arataka school of gestures.
Were you surprised Ilya said "I love you" first?
Yeah, but even though Shane doesn’t say it first, he says all these things that are, if they’re not love, what the fuck are they? You know, “Let’s start a foundation.” He’s staying up in the middle of the night plotting their way. [...] because he loves Ilya so dearly. So I think he, even though he didn’t say it first, he made that cottage a home for Ilya to be able to say it.
Ilya REACHING OUT HIS HAND begging Shane to stay with everything but words.
Calling him Hollander to reset the equilibrium because he KNOWS he fucked up and Shane is spooked now.
Ilya trying DESPERATELY to take it back to 5 minutes before. Even just to one minute before.
Ilya who spent WEEKS planning for this day. Hoping Shane would stay the night, buying his favorite drink, making everything as relaxing as possible so it would feel natural. But he fucked up. He said Shane's first name.
and GOD he just wants to fix it. but, also, for one brief, singular second Shane had said HIS NAME TOO. For once, he wasn't Rozanov, he wasn't Roz, he wasn't his father's perfect son, he wasn't his brother's paycheck, he wasnt someone's fuck prize - he was Ilya. And he was Ilya to SHANE.
A tale of seven friends, who became eight, then nine.
after several years of working on it off and on, and just in time for the animated series, I finally finished and framed my mighty nein flower embroidery piece!! details and explanations under the cut
Caduceus - probably the simplest one, because I did his first and at the time I didn't plan on doing everyone. I did add beetles for him!
Fjord - Cloven Crystal for Uk'otoa (uk'otoa) of course, flowers for the Wildmother.
Molly - 8 petals + 1 eye in the center = 9 eye shapes. There's crabgrass around the base of the stem. I was pretty proud of how the sword turned out, and there's the clover he gave Yasha to its left.
Yasha - large black flower for her, smaller flowers for her collection. The smaller flowers are colors that represent the people closest to her: Molly, Beau, and Caleb. Lightning for the Stormlord.
Beau - her staff and sash, with vines wrapping around.
Jester - Lollipop flower for her spiritual weapon, and bees (hello, bees!)
Veth - three flowers, for Veth, Yeza, and Luc. Two are yellow, for Yeza and Luc, and one is green, for Nott. Plus buttons, of course.
Caleb - The petals are meant to look like flames, and the center of the flower is a dodecahedron face. Paw prints for Frumpkin, and little amber dancing lights.
Essek - I redid this one like three times but I like how it turned out. Parasol that Jester gave him, dancing lights, and then two flowers, for the two beacons. One flower is wilting, and the other blooming, for second chances and new beginnings.
And the braid at the top is made with one color of floss for each of the nein :)
