the (half) fae Illuga theory/au but the discovery is both accidental and horrifying bc it was via Lohen absentmindedly handing him smth and all of a sudden he hears hissing and a scream and turns to see Illuga clutching his smoking hand in agony and then its OHSHITOHSHITOHSHITOHSHIT
imagine bc Nod Krai was originally a part of Snezhnaya they had and continued the old tradition of never using iron for anything as to not harm any fae esp bc theyre nobles so there was never any risk of iron burns until the KoF showed up
and Lohen is so confused but he sees the smoking hand the pained expression and the item dropped on the ground and while he doesnt immediately recognize hes a fae depending on how well versed he is on fae lore he puts 2&2 together that the item caused the injury and quickly kicks it away from Illuga while rushing for medics and trying to help or at least hold him until experienced help arrives
then while Illuga is recovering and dealing with the revelation of his apparent bloodline Lohen and Varka proceed to both research fae and crackdown on anything known to harm fae in the Keep
all iron objects are replaced with a different material, salt is to be kept in containers and only taken out for immediate use, bells are banned including the Bell claymore, etc etc they take the safety of their direct allies seriously
(also Lohen is totally distracting himself ans avoiding Illuga since he was the one who burned him by handing him iron without a second thought)
(Illuga cant even notice immediately bc hes busy with self discovery so once hes done he has to be stunned that he apparently has to go even longer without seeing or hearing from Lohen)
and this made me think of baby lohen, and smth his model has in common with Yanqing's: their faces have an additional kind of red flush that other medium males do not have
a common headcanon for yanqing bc of this is that he is/was a crybaby
now im in a dilemna. on one hand, im imagining a lil baby lohen who was comfortable enough to cry frequently before his kidnapping shook him up enough he couldnt cry even in captivity
but on the other hand, there are other causes for a face flushing red such as but not limited to:
- physical exertion (lohen is VERY active)
- embarassment (also very cute like the crybaby one)
- anxiety (i already hc him to have paranoia/hyper vigilance to an extent so...)
- spice (*turns to his favorite dish*)
- heat (*turns my head the other say to his clothes + physical exertion*)
take yalls picks, either way im headcanoning that he yelps like a baby bunny when genuinely startled/scared to try and be heard bc it worked on the fatui guards when he was kidnapped and even when he was punished for it it reassured him that he could still be heard, that they hadnt taken his voice nor his resistance from him yet
If I had a nickel for every single fic I found that either Jing Yuan or Yanqing dies and the other is left to suffer I WOULD HAVE A FREAKING MANSION😭😭😭

I AM BY NO MEANS A MUSICIAN ANYMORE NOR HAVE I EVER BEEN A MUSIC THEORY EXPERT THIS IS PURELY MY RAMBLINGS
I HAVEN'T TOUCHED AN INSTRUMENT IN YEARS AND MY ONLY MUSICAL EXPERIENCE IS IN CHOIR, FLUTE, PIANO, AND VIOLIN I DONT KNOW SHIT OK? IM GUESSING AND GOING ON VIBES
ok so the first thing that i found interesting in "A Masterpiece" (Lohen's theme) is the including of a harpsichord melody after it opens with a guitar and scream. especially that this starts when we are introduced to the auction, and Lohen's infiltration and dismantling of it.
harpsichords for ppl who don't know are basically the proto-pianos that make that unique idk how to describe kind of plucking sound when played. these are usually used in music to give off an air of nobility and royalty, such as being played when a regal character is introduced to the scene. i find this interesting considering the descriptions i've seen ppl give of Lohen's design being "princely" alongside the Imunlaukr theory that had been going around before his release that he would be a remnant of the clan due to his signature weapon's description
this is especially emphasized i think with the including of a choir in his music too. does it give off ghostly a bit? idk how else to describe what it does to the music alongside the screams, to note his danger, mystery, and intimidation. but here's the thing: i think the choir singing is mixed with some sort of string instrument, a violin/viola maybe? when this melody starts playing, it starts as string instruments the first two times it plays then switches to vocals and then back to string. they're both being used because they sound so similar to one another it's easy to mistake them for the other without paying attention. kind of like how Lohen looks like any other high ranking Knight, you wouldn't know he's a hare in wolf's fur at a glance
the strings then reach a higher pitch, almost like screams of fear, when an additional melody starts playing. i dont know what instrument it is, it sounds digital but it could be smth im just not familiar with. but it reminds me of Monodrama in that it uses deep kind of digs to imply more danger, but its more melodic than Monodrama's to sound more like wails imo. not to mention, this melody and instrument drowns out most of the others or at least to my degree of hearing once it starts up until the guitar returns
afterwards, a sort of bass melody starts playing? idk what it's called its the scene in his trailer when hes taking out guards for his infiltration, but the music sounds like despite all the fast-paced action happening in the trailer it is also something that could be playing with him slowly skulking and stalking towards his prey instead
whats interesting to note is i dont rlly hear the harpsichord anymore up to this point. instead i hear the light, high-pitched keys of a piano. idk if this is supposed to be a transition of some kind, going from a historical harpsichord to a modern piano with him swapping himself out for the "killing machine from Fontaine"
the harpsichord actually makes a return when they show him reporting back in mondstadt and creating his "masterpiece" with the machine, possibly as his "princely and knightly" attitude returns since he's no longer in combat. however despite the constant back and forth between his string and keyboard instruments, the note he ends on is either. he ends with a guitar, the same instrument he starts with. kind of like his story quest: a lot goes on in there but at its core he starts looking for power and he ends still looking for power. his mindset may have gone through a bit, but the goal is the same he is still striving towards becoming stronger.
but at this point, i'd like to look at the instruments his theme uses as a whole: strings, piano, harpsichord, some sort of digital instrument. and a guitar. the first 3 when you hear of them are typically associated with historical music, especially Renaissance and Baroque era with the harpsichord. the type of guitar (idk what its called) played in the style of i think more metal(?) with the digital instruments feels more modern on the other hand. the two different styles are melded together pretty well, and i think overall plays into Lohen's duality themes
i uh. dunno what else to say. im sure there's more im missing so feel free to reblog/comment on if you found anything else but yeah these are my thoughts after actually paying attention to the music in A Masterpiece. cool bye o7
