He'd win

Skott is just a pathetic loser version of Sampo

Patiently hoping hoyoverse never makes Dan Heng have to go back to the shackling prison after the war dance arc. Plz these voicelines are making it impossible to keep the story going with how much it's breaking my heart 🙏🙏

Is it just me? Or am I the only one wondering how in the world do the Xianzhou deposit their garbage??? I mean, there isn't a single trash can seen in the Xianzhou maps so far and I know the people there still have their trash lying around somewhere. So where does the trash go??? Do they just throw their garbage anywhere and just let it lay there??? Jing yuan soon better have an explanation in game for this cause I need to know. I feel like they would have an area where there is a mountain of garbage though somewhere in the Loufu waiting for the Trailblazer to uncover.

HSR THOUGHTS:

—————————

Topaz and Guinafen: Topaz’s Apple White Syndrome vs Guinafen’s Lore and Experience.

————

This thought came to me when I added these two on a team together.

Diving right in, Apple White Syndrome is a name I’ve given to Characters who were or are under very specific and rare conditions in which they benefit or are benefited, and pressure others to follow suit in belief it is for the greater good, but it in reality puts others in far more suffering, and only benefits a select few if lucky.

Another Character who can be used as an example for this is Riddle Rosehearts pre-Overblot, but in a far more distant way.

Topaz’s world was saved by the IPC because their demand was that everyone, everyone in an entire world agreed to join them. Those odds are horrendously slim, but by sheer luck, everyone did agree. Because of this, the IPC did comply and save them, leading Topaz to believe the IPC and its work is actually good for the people.

Guinafen suffered immensely because of the IPC, when her world was completely destroyed by the Antimatter Legion, before her parents death, they sent, her, her siblings and ONE trusted family friend to be their legal guardian, and shipped them away to safety.

They landed on a mining planet taken over by the IPC.

After explaining their situation and expecting rescue or relief, not only did the IPC do absolutely nothing, they put those old enough to work in forced labor camps, lowkey slavery and even with that, the younger children who couldn’t work were under horrendous circumstances, living in a cave, given little to no payment; food or basic necessities, to the point the youngest often fought over lizards to eat. Directly after loosing everything and being stranded, they were immediately put through more shit. No mercy.

(Pre- existing Residents of this planet faced these conditions aswell, but possibly still had their homes)

The adult later passed on due to physical strain and exhaustion. Aka worked to death. Her three eldest brothers then turned to (space) piracy as a way of survival, they were later captured and executed, but pleaded safety for the youngest.

This lead to her arrival on the Xianzhou, Later meeting Sushang, who gave her the name Guinafen (her real name is Guinevere)

Working up from nothing, basically homeless and preforming on the street, got involved with a major government and supernatural conspiracy, then later becoming a planet famous social media influencer.

I think because of her experience, Guinafen would be the perfect person to knock some sense into Topaz.

Guinafen would most definitely take her by surprise, because of her naturally cheery nature, happy go lucky attitude and the fact she chose to move on. She’s the type of person who has either moved on, or created a mask even Sparkle would applaud at to cover that pain.

I think it’s majorly the former. She has chosen to continue life as best she can, restart from nothing.

This woman was once a noble, practically princess, of a world and planet now nonexistent. Someone who has become common passerby’s with Death, Dined with Thrist, Danced with Starvation and was cradled by Misery, but she made it out alive.

As a normal person in the Honkai Verse, When you see her online, filming ghost videos, or in the streets doing tricks, you’d never be able to guess that, would you?

I can imagine Topaz wouldn’t clock this, as most wouldn’t. I can imagine Topaz continuously praising the IPC for their help with her planet somehow in conversation, and Guinafen keeping her temper for a good while, pointing out certain things that seem extensively situational, but if it goes on for too long, she might, and has every right to snap.

I was thinking of it similarly to the scene in Ever After High where Apple is continuously stating how everyone should follow their destiny’s, and is happy Raven agreed to sign, and Briar, rightfully, snaps.

“Follow our destiny’s? Thats easy for you to say, Apple. You get poisoned for what, a week? I’m going to loose 100 years of my life. Everyone I love will be dead when I wake up.”

-Briar Beauty (Quote from memory so might not be as accurate)

That scene in particular. I think it would be actually amazing for Sushang, Seele or Bronya to be there aswell, given the entirety of the Belabog incident and the Aurem Alley issues. Just get someone to force her to really see the real effects of the IPC, as she actually possesses the ability to change some of it for the better.

“Look, I’m glad the IPC saved your planet, really, thats great for you, but you can’t tell me they are good people.

Good people don’t immediately take advantage of refugees who just lost everything, especially when only one of them is an adult.

Good people don’t let children get so hungry they fight over lizards like wild animals.

Good people don’t work the only adult with those children to death and leave them to fend for themselves, then get angry and pin the blame on them when they turn to piracy to survive.

Besides, did you ever stop to realize or think about the fact that they probably thought there was no way everyone would agree to that? They would get people forced to work for them either way, by their own will or against it.”

I don’t know alot about Topaz, so somethings on her side might be inaccurate, but I’ve read through all of Guinafens lore, and DAMN, shits sad. Her and Aventurine be traumabonding on my team trust.

Anyway, thats just some thoughts!

Was rewatching some of the HSR animations and HE LOOKS SO GODDAMN HAPPY HERE AS AN OLD MAN HELP

rambling about blade / yingxing headcanons and ideas that I've thought abt or seen floating around

(his white hair, him not knowing what tech is, how the Mara permanently messed up his hands and muscle memory so he can't do what he loved anymore, etc etc)

Headcanon #1: white hair

Everyone except Dan Feng had white hair, and I'm p sure I mentioned this before but imagine

So Yingxing is the only short-life species right, and he's getting old and noticing it and realizing that compared to the others, he doesn't have much time left

And one of the others notices how melancholy he is, and how he's trying to hide it for their sake, and is like "hmm," before being like "hey what if we all got white hair but didn't tell Dan Feng"

And all of them know it's to make Yingxing feel less alone, but it's played off as a "hehe pranking Dan Feng" moment

Headcanon #2: old man blade not knowing how tech works

We see this a bit with current Blade and Silver Wolf, but I like to imagine it was still part of his personality to a lesser extent

He would have been the "old guy" of the group who was an expert with traditional crafts and technology, but not so much with newer things since he preferred to make things "the old way" or by hand, since it made him feel more connected with his work

Like, he would have kept up with the newer stuff being made and used it if it would have helped him with his work, but wouldn't have bothered with stuff like phones, computers, the internet, etc

So the others would always ask him for help with anything they broke, and he'd ask for help with anything internet or computer related

Headcanon #3: him knowing how to craft stuff besides weapons, armor, et cetera

This is a stretch but if his skills expanded beyond just weapons and armor he could probably help fix everyone's clothes (they'd probably get torn up in battle) or make little hand-made gifts and stuff like statues and jewelry and armor and cutlery

Like he also would have been an artist specializing in handmade things, but no one would have suspected him of making such tiny and delicate things until they got to know him

Headcanon #4:

So as Blade, he still has damaged hands and scars, and I've seen a headcanon of sorts floating around that the Mara focuses only on the wounds that need the most urgent healing, and leaves "minor" or less severe wounds unhealed

And the Mara would have focused on all the fatal wounds Jingliu inflicted while killing Blade, leaving other wounds to heal improperly

So now as Blade, his hands are too damaged to perform fine crafts and movements, except for swordplay, which he sort of got beaten into him by Jingliu

My other headcanon of sorts is that the Mara messed with his muscle memory, not just his ability to remember events

So his mind and nervous system are essentially too scrambled for him to learn any type of craft or fine motor skill except for swordplay (and maybe driving)

And I kind of feel like he would find some peace if he were still able to make things, sort of like how some people use embroidery or weaving or drawing as a coping method / escapism, but even that form of art / self expression has been taken from him

It'd be like if Robin permanently lost the ability to sing or if Serval suddenly became tone-deaf and couldn't play guitar

i forgot to post this here but!! it is here now
