Hooke’s view of natural philosophy is encapsulated by the phrase, ‘a sincere hand and a faithful eye’, which occurs in the preface of his best-known publication, Micrographia (1665). The phrase is related to Hooke’s belief, shared by many at the time, that the human capacity for sense perception and knowledge had been corrupted because of Original Sin. Before the Fall, Adam was capable of sharp perception and knowledge that current humans were not capable of. The brain, imagination, and memory had also been affected and become fallible, resulting in dogmatic and erroneous philosophy that needed to be corrected and established anew. Reforming natural philosophy thus required rectifying the limited power of the human senses. This could be achieved, Hooke stated, with instruments that acted as ‘artificial organs’ for humans. (…) An examination of Hevelius’s illustration of the transversal markings with a ‘magnifying glass’ revealed, according to Hooke, that they were uneven and thus inaccurate, due to ‘a naked eye and an unmachined hand’. This was the opposite of a ‘sincere hand and a faithful eye’, where instruments were essential in correcting and augmenting the limitation of the human senses.

In the dark of night, two magical girls stand at an ominous alter

Whilst twins play a gentle tune, and an old rival speaks softly to the girls that attend.

An air of anticipation fills the air, hanging on her every word. A coordinator smiles at her work.

Their tribes of found family filling the rows, an unwelcome guest wishes to interrupt the ceremony.

As the girls lean in for a gentle kiss, their soul gems burn bright. The witch may try, but their curse couldn't break this love.

A lantern sways in the silence, a pleasant chime to rouse paper doves from their perch.

In this dire moment, the room is filled with magic. The witch bursts overhead, showering all in its presence with flowers.

The girls smile at each other as the labrynth dissappears, a grief seed landing between them.

The atendees erupt in cheer. Thus one more contract is sealed... a much sweeter deal than their first.

Welp there's my attempt at a vague event idea hehe. After two weeks of waiting, Doppel wedding! Done with watercolor and markers.

@yachimifus @paranoia-assault tagged as you wish! Enjoy the girls!!
