I was looking at the art and noticed the flowers on Mika’s birthday art are daisies. These generally mean innocence, cheerfulness and joy in flower language! Here’s more about the flower and what it may symbolise for Mika ❀
╰┈➤ The daisy on his head is a white daisy, these specifically symbolize purity and innocence! This may refer to how he’s very shy and possibly to him being a younger brother.
╰┈➤ The daisy he’s holding seems to be a yellow daisy. These symbolize cheerfulness, joy and friendships! (I’m not 100% sure if it’s actually supposed to be yellow or if it has to do with shadow/colour theory/light — which I’m not that well-versed in, so please correct me if I’m wrong — that makes it look yellow, because yellow daisies are usually more vibrant.)
╰┈➤ Daisies are known to grow all over the world, so I’d like to think that HYV refers this to him being a cartographer. Because, as we know, that simply said means making maps of places [in the world].
╰┈➤ People mainly use daisies for happy occasions like birthdays and, well, it’s Mika’s birthday!
╰┈➤ Non-flower language/symbolism related fact: daisies are the fifth most popular flowers in the world ✿
(Wow, today is also filled with incredibly amazing people, isn't it? ~)
(No, it's only natural that people would gather here during school commuting hours.)
(There are so many people here that I feel like saying "Uwahh...")
(I can't seem to fit in with my classmates... I can only make excuses like saying that it's because of my shy and reserved personality.)
(Ugh... I was determined to change a little when entering Yumenosaki Academy, but in the end, even after several days of enrollment, nothing has changed at all.)
(Just like middle school, I seem to have started my gloomy youth again.)
(But there was a place that would accept even someone as clumsy as me!)
(Yumenosaki Academy is a school for training 'idols', of course I am also treated as an idol.)
(A bungler-like oddball.........)
(I was prepared to struggle and be ignored by any 'unit'. But Master Morisawa... no, Captain.)
(Captain-sama invited the lottery winner with 'Wouldn't you like to become a hero?' as he put it.)
(Frankly speaking, at first I was so freaked out by the captain's overly familiar attitude that I kept running away.)
(Wherever I go, every time they appear and try to persuade me, even a clumsy person like myself can't help but nod in agreement...)
Yuuta: ....Hey... what's this? Um, isn't that Sengoku-kun from our class...... right? Good morning~
Shinobu: Hieh!? Oh, good morning de gozaru!
Sorry! I have more important things to do — I'm forced to take my leave de gozaru! Sh-ta-ta-ta-ta... (sound of receding footsteps)!
Yuuta: Oops, he ran off with incredible speed. He's already out of sight now.
Hinata: Yuuta~kun? Never would have thought I'd wake up earlier than my onii-chan!
We are one in heart and soul as 2wink, aren't we? Stay close by my side.
Yuuta: It's been sweltering since early this morning, Aniki... Sometimes it's fine to act separately too, isn't it?
Hinata: Yuuta-kun is just going through his rebellious phase, huh~ It's okay though. No matter if it's a rebellious phase or anything else, for me Yuuta-kun will always be my cute little brother.
Yuuta-kun, just now it looked like you were greeting someone—are they a friend? Let's see if they're up to your brother's aesthetic standards~
Yuuta: Who is that character... Sengoku-kun is a classmate.
Since I haven't talked to him much, I don't really know what he's like... Maybe he doesn't like me? Whenever I try to talk to him, he runs away.
Hinata: Hmm, I wonder what kind of kid he is... I wish I could have greeted him too~. Yuuta-kun so meanie!
Yuuta: You're mean... Just hurry up and let's go already.
Hinata: Hey, wait! You're walking straight ahead... So this is a game of tag, huh?
Ahahaha. No matter how far apart we are, I won't lose sight of Yuuta-kun.
It's because you're my onii-chan~, Yuuta-kun, you should be prepared for it. Nishishi.
Slass 1-B
Shinobu: .....Buha!
(I was so nervous just now~?! I ran at full speed to the classroom holding my breath!)
(It’s a shame that despite kindly addressing me… due to my shyness around people, I ended up fleeing and giving off a bad impression.)
(Same class... that means we're classmates. And you remembered the name of the person who drew lots too.)
(Perhaps we could have become friends, but I missed that opportunity.)
(Well, the realm of friends is unknown territory, so this was just fine.)
(Hmm, it seems about time for the teacher to arrive. The club application form has already been filled out, and all that's left is to submit it to the student council.)
(I don't have the time to go and come back right now. I'll submit it during lunch break.)
(If the application goes through without any problems, first i should decide on our activities and recruit members... phew, my dreams are swelling up like a balloon~)
Started playing HSR again a bit ago just bc I found out Dan Heng appears in Amphoreus. I’m on the third part rn and!! Why do we get separated from him so much </3 I didn’t start playing it just to not see him half the time
Dan Heng headcanon time… Since visually, Vidyadharas aren’t TOO dragon-like (besides the occasional horns and tail), they make up for it with having draconic instincts/behaviors. We all know that it’s a popular belief that dragons like to hoard things, and I definitely think that’s true with the Vidyadhara.
I think Dan Heng would be more abstract with it. He hoards knowledge and his friendships (“My friends… are also once in a lifetime treasures”).
He’s definitely a knowledge seeker and being the train’s archivist really helps. With how organized the databank is, you can tell that he’s very dedicated and enjoys working on it. It’s something he’s very proud of
I also think he doesn’t like the cold. For both the reason that it reminds him of the freezing cold of the shackling prison, and that most Vidyadhara don’t do well against the cold. (I say most because the Fanghu high elder, Glaciator Marum, obviously has ice powers. So I think the Fanghu Vidyadhara have better resistance against the cold ^.^).
Ans he can canonically hold his breath underwater for 100 minutes or so (From DHIL’s KUWSR)!
I would like to hear any headcanons or opinions anyone has on this ^^ I know people have talked about this thing before, but I like to focus on dragon Dan Heng a lot, I think it’s so cool😭💜
(Ignore any grammar/spelling errors for now… I’ll fix any of them later…)
But still, I will not post as frequently, since I spend most of my time just sketching and I don't feel like I can post a bunch of unfinished sketches all the time here on Tumblr lol
it’s made abundantly clear that the ocean is sacred to the vidyadhara. >>>
this goes beyond a simple matter of homesickness, being of a race which once dominated the seas of an aquatic planet- it’s only natural for them to miss it. however, i haven’t seen many people point out just how significant it is to them, so here are a few examples:
-lingsha explicitly says that there’s nothing more nostalgic for a vidyadhara than their homeland
-a heliobus in fyxestroll garden complains of their vidyadharan host smelling too strongly of sea salt, a conscious choice also due to nostalgia
-dan heng literally sleeps on a mattress atop tiles which give the illusion of gently rolling waves. self-explanatory.
the list goes on, but all of this is to say one thing:
it wouldn’t be unreasonable to think that dan heng might miss the ocean, especially considering how much of an emphasis is placed on the idea that ALL vidyadhara return to these waters for their rebirths, regardless of individual circumstances.
for him, though? not so much.
i think it would be an incredibly bittersweet, almost instinctual longing- one that he would suppress as much as possible, because he already has everything he once wished for- freedom, which is a stark contrast to how he was raised, and his own identity. why should he be entitled to anything more? so maybe he’ll start having more of an appetite for fish, or binge-watch several marine biology documentaries in a single night, but that’s as far as he’ll allow it to go.
(if the crew were ever to find out, i’m certain we would get a Beach Day Episode, as they say. i, for one, am a huge advocate.)
