Prologue: 般若

Six acts. One mask. The face beneath it was never meant to be seen. Coming 26.06.01 on Tumblr and Fanprose. Read Prologue on Fanprose.

ok

let me tell you about the man I was born to destroy

dramatic right? 😏

you don't know I exist yet

you will

soon~

i’ve been watching you for a while now. i was there when you took your first breath. there when your dad’s business went under. there when your mom cried in the kitchen thinking nobody could hear

i was there when you decided you’d never be weak. never be powerless. never be the one who cries alone.

cute 🤭

i watch you build himself into something impressive. disciplined. controlled. every emotion shoved into a neat little box where it cant hurt you

here’s the thing tho

i was born from those boxes

every jealousy you swallowed

every raged you choked down

every grief you refused to feel

that’s me ♡

thats what i feed off

and right now?

right now your whole world is falling apart 🤤

right now those neat little boxes are cracking open

right now you are sitting in a hotel bar looking for oblivion

you dont know it yet but you're looking for me

im going to find you

im going to break you

im going to feast on everything you've been hiding for all these years

thats what I was created for

…

so why do I feel like this time is different

why do i want you to survive

i’ve… never… wanted that before

hmmmm

weird

anyway

probably nothing~

see you soon ♡

Modern wedding photoshoot by Dali, recreating an early Showa picture (?) with the bride and groom in hannya masks wearing for the formal shoot.

Picture referenced is the one below, which went around twitter a while ago. Story lacks ref and sources though, so if you know more, please reach out I am quite puzzled!

If this truly was a thing, it probably originated as a pun on traditional wedding headdress called tsunokakushi, meant to "hide [the bride's] horns of jealousy/selfishness". In those pictures, the horns are OUT baby!

As a side note, the funniest thing to me is to have both the bride and groom in hannya masks. In Noh theater, hannya mask represents a vengeful woman, turned demon-like in her anger. Hence why "brides" and "grooms" in those pics read veeeery much lgbt+ to me ("Harold, they are hannya" xD).
