Cinder from The Lunar Chronicles. Her name translates to Moon Moon Moon, but I wanted to try a Sun theme

Had the folks on Instagram vote on their preferred iteration of Cress’ Butterfly Dress. Majority flipped between 2 and 5, but I ultimately decided that between the two, 2 felt more extravagantly Lunar. Made some changes and here we are~ Ready for a coronation infiltration

I wanna talk about this line from Cress for a second because it made me scream on the inside from the first time I read it:

“I don’t know. I never wanted to believe it, but I’ve had to wonder. And when you fell, and I saw your glamour … Cinder, do you have any idea how beautiful your glamour is?” ~ Cress (The Lunar Chronicles), Marissa Meyer

This line is so painfully beautiful to me in a way that's hard for me to articulate because its sort of complicated in my head too but I'm gonna try anyway. Kai doesn't mean this as a compliment obviously and Cinder knows as much, she even admits to that realization in the very next line. Cinder's glamour isn't exactly what either her or Kai consider a good thing. But inadvertently, this comment sort of becomes a compliment anyway... Or rather a very deep confession of feelings on Kai's part.

Because Kai finds Cinder beautiful even when she's completely unassuming and plain. When she has a grease stain on her forehead and hair in a messy ponytail and is completely awkward. Her glamour amplifies the beauty he already sees tenfold.

When he tells her that her glamour is painful, its like he's admitting the depth of his feelings for her and his fear that they aren't real cuz he WANTS them to be real so bad.

And if he already finds her so beautiful and the glamour makes her even more so, then what is the chance the entire thing wasn't a glamour from the get-go considering how fast and how strong his feelings crept on him? What if none of it was real and he has to live with the fact this beautiful girl he's already halfway to giving his heart to was just a hoax when he wants her to he everything but one because to him she's already an enigma he never expected to find.

Kaider just make me wanna scream because of the pining and angst so much.
