AIRA SHIRATORI YOU AGREE REBLOG
d&d pregame preparation
you know aira as a mixed race character could have been made SO much more interesting with this story if it was written. like the exact opposite of how it was written
so aira in japan was often assumed to be a foreigner because he's blonde and (supposedly) racially ambiguous looking. this bothered him because he didn't like people assuming that he was so much different from them when, in reality, he had pretty much the same childhood as any other japanese kid.
but imagine for this story, they travel to france but instead of immediately being mistaken for a local for some reason (how white is this boy supposed to look), he's instead ALSO assumed to be a foreigner while in france. he doesn't dress like a local, he's not speaking french, and his group of friends is a lot more obviously not white than he is. this should make him happy, right? since they're not assuming he's something he isn't, like they did at home. but it makes him instead just feel really... othered. if he doesn't fit in japan and he doesn't fit in in france, then where does he fit in? why is he too much of something for one group of people, but not enough of it for the other?
but does this not make him even more fit to stand at the side of alkaloid, the unit who's united by their shared experience of being othered? so maybe its alright if a lot of the people around him don't make him feel like he belongs. because he's already found where he's supposed to be.
HES RIGHT
ITS AIRA SATURDAY EVERYONE CHEER ❤️🎉

"Who am I?"
It's a difficult question to answer, Hiiro thinks. What are all of the things that make up a person? How would he describe himself to someone else? It's easy to describe someone like Aira, he thinks. He's come to learn so many things about him over their time together... but what has he learned about himself since he left home? What has changed? What is going to change in time?
or: hiiro is a little bit afraid of the uncertain future, but aira is there to remind him he's already on the right path
when they um. when the hiiai,
going insane
