reminder that i'm on @playselect until i can properly move astra's blog

[starborne]

me when i realise the burden i have placed on my soul

[starborne]

can't do the lovesona test bc none of them are astra levels of cute but unhinged

[starborne]

looked at it post sleep and astra i THINK could be a doberman if you ignore the fact astra LOVES pda and isn't that fucking stringent on rules and also snow leopard if you ignore that it isn't dad jokes material and actually secretly cute/mischievous/playful

[starborne]

twst!au thoughts with koko prompted how astra is secretly v obsessive/possessive

[starborne]

me wondering if i should make astra a (minor) god in the lnds universe which makes its name, for the first time, not a symbol of its freedom/new life, but its anguish

a lesser god malformed to astra's will and thus its name signifies his control and influence over it, so much so that it can barely remember what its followers called it (elysia), what its brother called it (astoret), what it was meant to represent (hope)

[starborne]

more lads thots but

astraia hard mode/villain mc or secret route romance as generally an antagonist in the game because its her brother who it wants to save. astraia was told by astra, the god, that kai could come back if the original mc died as intended and if every other love interest could sacrifice the world/their home for her, then it can sacrifice her for its home

astraia who has grown apathetic and only has its mission. everything it remembers of its brother is a faded dream: it still wants him back

this is very much my pot for enemies to lovers / hurt n comfort plots let me not LIE

[starborne]

love astra as a foil to the original mc, who has lived countless lives but has always found love, while it has lived endlessly and been left hollow. it is tired. it wants to go home

but it is running on empty. a tiny echo, a memory of what was, its only comfort. each attempt fails. in every timeline the mc lives. every version of her survives. through the interference of the love interests, astraia's task is prolonged

but astra, i think, has a beautiful evol. one person has complimented it, that being kai, because the only times it has tried to use it since is to kill wanderers or attempt to kill the mc

[starborne]

when the only thing hoyoverse has done right is give me the chance to see what astra's skin would accurately look like in-game/splash instead of making me guess

[starborne]

for my league mooties, i have a music skin verse i don't think i've mentioned here BUT general synopsis is: astraia was a child idol who left at 17, but has returned to the music scene after a decade with a band, critical. critical initially premieres as a faceless band, stiring intrigue among the media, seeking to disrupt the industry, the anonymity used to help push their ideal at the forefront instead of their faces. a live concert is the scene of their grand reveal. the band, managed by mel, is composed of:

jinx. the dj/producer

katarina. the lyricist

astraia. the songwriter

zeri. the stage/merch designer

xayah. the choreographer

all, or most, have vocal roles according to their style: for example, zeri is the main rap artist of the group

reposting this like im not gonna move in a week but fuck it

[starborne]

metaphor!astra, without diving too deeply into spoilers, is half-paripus (fox) and half-ishkia, spending most of its early life hunted and chased until encountering louis, who it has stuck by since. astraia is louis' closest and most loyal follower but has very little in the way of social presence, being hidden away from society for its own wellbeing

the protagonist cannot sway her to his side, however he can speak to it about the state of the world, especially regarding stigma and discrimination and his beliefs and the fantasy book he carries with him. ultimately, the protagonist must fight astraia before they can fight louis, upon which it reveals that it is the shadow archetype: all that has been denied, perceived as inferior, evil, or unacceptable, which the "self" must acknowledge / overcome

[starborne]

thriving with how different astra is as a person when you get through that 50m thick fortress

[starborne]

little plotting call for when i revamp/move

astra as spring. as spring where it is one of the harshest seasons, alongside autumn, not due to the temperature but how they kill the cold and smother the heat. the transition from the old into the new but as violence. spring as authority against death and master of life, of creation, of existence anew, against the winter reign, which prohibits growth and demands uniformity

[starborne]

it has not escaped my notice that the character who shares astra's name also shares its aesthetic
