my take on cyrene (￣▽￣* ")ゞ
and here's the thought process!
#fanart#cyrene#hsr#honkai star rail#hsr fanart#i don't mind the bow#since cyrene IS an elysia callback#but i still missed the ceremonial blade and was kinda bummed to see the bow had no relation to cyrene herself#idk i dont think the current design is bad either#i just dont think it's the cyrene we love and know#doodle#art#digital art#character design#idk i thought story writing was a really strong character trait they were going for but like where did it go#and to be fair this isnt cycle 0 cyrene either#it's technically mem#so i put back some mem elements#i will be so real i do like cyrene a lot#but after further consideration i think it's because the fandom did the heavy lifting for developing her character and not the devs#oh fanfic cyrene you are so endearing#especially when you have to deal with a really dense bro with the social awareness of a rock and the self confidence of dirt#unrelated but since village farmer phainon is kind of real#i thought it would be nice to have village hunter cyrene who is the farm bum#i think its cute to envision her actually having experience with the bow as a kid yknow#before she adopted a sickle and all would be cute if she dreamt of being a hunter#artemis core yknow?
