Back from the grave

Sometimes you draw your OC with different hair and it completely resurrects him in your eyes

bishōnen

(also called: bishonen, bishounen, prettyboy, bidanshi, biseinen, bijin, bishie, bishi, binanshi)

bishonen is an aesthetic, trope and presentation that describes young men of androgynous beauty, often described and depicted as polite and princely, and associated with non-girly effeminancy. breaking the stereotypes associated with feminine malehood by associating with sophistication, self-sufficiency and often, dandy fashion.

while the name describes men, the name is often used to describe women who fit this description as well, and is therefore genderless in use. it is purposefully vague and focusing on fashion and attitude so most people can identify with it

the term has been around since the meiji era, flag coined by aster, tagging @radiomogai and @angelomour

I just found out about BJD dolls through your blog and first off omggg they're so cute!

Second off, they immediately reminded me of one of my favorite anime, Thunderbolt Fantasy, which rather than being animated is this wuxia-inspired puppet show...

And now that's got me thinking about a forcemasc + dollification scenario where like, a travelling sorceress goes from town to town using her magic to put on a puppet show along those same lines, while spending her off-time scouting the place for women to join her "troupe"...

When she finds someone interested in working with her, the sorcerer takes her to her caravan to sign a contract - and of course, as soon as the lady signs up, she's magically transformed into a handsome bishonen puppet!

Before anyone notices something's up, the sorceress packs up and heads off to perform somewhere else - her precious stars spending their days having their hair combed, their faces gently brushed and hearing their loving mistress coo into their ears, telling them how pretty and talented they are and how much she loves her superstars...

In-between putting on spectacular swordfights for the delight of their adoring fans, of course. It really is a fantastic show, and the crew is always looking for new members ~

ooo see this one actually hits close to home believe it or not one of our alters is a puppet ppl who know us well i think tend to just kinda assume its a muppets style hand puppet but shes actually a marionette like the first puppet we ever owned that we got from a dia de los muertes festival we went to as a kid and as a robot myself we love themes of lack of autonomy and of being turned into an object a thing to be controlled and the thought of hiring out for new puppeteers only to turn them into a group of handsome puppet dolls who put on a traveling theatre show is so fun also as a puppet fan gotta say ik for a fact a lot of puppeteers are similarly puppet obsessed and would prolly love being turned into one lol and if they turn into wooden marionettes you can literally shave away any features you dont want them to have

pinocchios you but in reverse so you can become a real boy
