this might not be canon, but personally i need furina to struggle a whole lot longer and harder with post-prophecy depression and mental illness. She's played the same tiring and painful act for five centuries, was constantly in a life or death scenario and had to hide her true self from the world the entire time and she won't just recover in a few years from that.
There's parts of her that will never ever be compatible with a simple human lifestyle, and parts of her that are irreparably broken. She isn't sure of her personality after everything that happened and the lie she had to live. She slips between personas and her archon temperament comes through like a defensive mechanism at any sign of conflict or trouble.
She's plagued by nightmares. Of the flood, of the trial, of the people closest to her conspiring against her behind her back, and of being found out in a million terrible ways. Of saying the wrong thing, making a wrong decision. Of being found out, of being found out, of being found out.
Lying or keeping a secret feels existential still. Being honest still feels life threatening sometimes. Putting herself first feels like putting both hands on a hot stove.
She doesn't live in the palais anymore, doesn't have to sit through trials anymore, but her heart and soul are still there. In her dreams she's still at the place she spent her entire life's memories at.
Yes, she can make new memories, but it'll take time. More time than she has, maybe, now that she's the closest to being human she'll ever be.
She'll never be human in the way the people around her are.
What sort of human has 500 years worth of memories after all? What human tells personal anecdotes and mixes up their centuries?
What sort of human can feel the absence of their divinity like it's a physical thing? A voice that will never speak to her again, or keep her alive? What human has no family, no childhood?
What human remembers so little, but still remembers death somewhere deep within?
She jerks out of sleep from it sometimes, gasping for air, and spends the rest of the night awake, almost frozen by fear. The flood is over, but it's hard to convince her racing heart that the danger is too.
Humans have entire family trees that go generations back, but Furina was put into this world a solitary creature, her blood heavy with sin ever since she turned human.
She owns a hydro vision now and doesn't know how to yield it, but the ocean still calls out to her some days. Sea creatures flock to her like they can smell she's not human enough.
She learns how to make little hydro companions for herself, so the darkness and emptiness of her apartment feels less ominous when she lies awake at night.
She can't turn her vision into a weapon quite yet, but when it rains the droplets seem to cling to her. She's watched them roll upwards along her arm, watched them gather in her palm like kin. She wonders if sea creatures flock to neuvillette in a similar way, or if his immense power makes them recoil. She wonders if elemental dragons can feel regret. Wonders if he, too, ever feels entirely foreign in that human body he was given. If he, too, lies awake trying to grasp faint memories of a past life.
She's extremely human in the way she's plagued by body pains from not being able to relax just one day in five centuries. The years catch up with her once she gets out of survival mode, and fatigue is a constant companion now. Sleep comes difficultly and getting out of bed was easier when the fate of a whole nation depended on it. On her. She's never lived for just herself before and some days she's not sure she wants to.
She did her duty and earned her retirement and the story turned out well, all things considered. She still has people by her side, some of them.
Still, she feels raw and tired and overwhelmed by the life lying ahead of her. As a human and as someone who will always be Something Else.
No thoughts, just height difference
The General Mahamatra carries a presence with him. He’s adept at hiding it–capable of sneaking up on almost everyone–but generally, his presence is loud and overwhelming. He enters a room and he instantly demands attention.
Alhaitham had the privilege of witnessing it more than once already. There’s just something to the way Cyno carries himself in official meetings and it scarcely has to do with his headset. It might be the most distinctive sign of the General Mahamatra, but even dressed down and bandaged up Cyno manages to command the attention of everyone present with merely a look and the way he carries himself. Sometimes it feels as if the General Mahamatra is larger than life itself.
Alhaitham also has heard what people say about the General Mahamatra; how his reputation is huge and his legacy will carry on, long after he’s gone.
Alhaitham doesn’t disagree with any of that, though to him the General Mahamatra is even more. To him, the General Mahamatra is Cyno.
And Cyno is small.
His presence might be great, the power he commands terrifying and overpowering, but physically, he’s just a sliver of a man. Alhaitham knows of course, just what kind of power lies behind the deceptively slim body–has felt it first hand during their clash at Aaru Village–but that doesn’t change the fact that Cyno is almost an entire head shorter than him.
He’s not even of a good height for forehead kisses, something that Alhaitham laments every morning, when he awkwardly has to bend down until his lips connect with the crown of Cyno’s head. Not that a little discomfort is going to stop him because nothing can stop him from showering Cyno with his love. Not even the glower he gets in return.
“Stop that,” Cyno says, very notably not rising on his feet to make it easier on Alhaitham, but Alhaitham knows it for the token protest it is.
The blush dusting Cyno’s cheeks gives him away.
“Tomorrow, maybe,” Alhaitham says, and they both know very well that he won’t stop it, not tomorrow or any day after.
Cyno huffs, but doesn’t protest anymore, and Alhaitham just catches the hint of a smile on his face when he turns away from him.

Hii, some of those head canons are based on episodes and popular opinions. They are more fitting when he is older. Please share some of your head canons too ^^ also I’m not American so I don’t know about their school system…
He is one of the tallest in his grade
He is actually really good at math and physics and even attends the honor classes
He has a telescope in his room and glow in the dark stars on his ceiling
He is autistic and his special interests are space, the ocean and red racer
The school forces him to join a sports club so he is in the swimming team since it’s the most relaxing sport and he really likes the silence under water
He has peruvain roots and can speak spanish
His dad often buys him fidget toys, but he just gives them to Tweek instead
He lets Tweek wear his hat and pull on the strings to prevent him from ripping out his hair. He also carries around bandaids in his bag just in case
In 5th grade he got braces for his messed up teeth and was really insecure about it to the point he didn’t want to talk. He was relieved when they finally took them out and now he has nice teeth.
He has watched red racer more than ten times already and he urges his friends to watch it with him.
Red and Stan are his Cousins. He doesn’t want to be associated with Randy though.
He can play the violin and sometimes does duets with his boyfriend
He is the guy with the most ‘sick’ days but he still never was held back a grade. His grades are rather good for someone that doesn’t do much.
He sometimes helps out in the coffee shop so Tweek would be able to end his shift sooner
He absolutely despises Tweek’s dad and doesn’t trust him or their coffee. Tweek’s parents love him though.
He really enjoys watching his boyfriend’s boxing matches and is really proud of him. Tweek is also super supportive of his hobbies and doesn’t miss his competitions.
He watches horror game theory videos with Clyde knowing his best friend will be scared. He and Clyde were really obsessed with Fnaf as kids.
He enjoys collecting Pokemon cards or book. He also has some of Tweek origami creations on display in his room.

Happy birthday, Scara!
SAPPY RAMBLE TIME!!
in the entire world of characters i have loved he is the one dearest to my heart. i started playing genshin when i saw his first cutscene and loved his design, and i only grew to love him more as more of his story was told to us through artifact sets and item descriptions. and then finally, after long last, his arc in the sumeru quests!
i think that surprised everyone, but i'm happy thinking about scara frolicking in the woods with all the forest creatures and aranara haha
this is the standee i drew for the Heartless scara zine. i put in little references to scara's story and the npc kids whose stories i was fond of.. scara would've adopted them too
i still think its cute that scaras fairytale has foxes represent humans 🦊🐱🦊🦊 scara loves his fuzzy orange family

reblogs highly encouraged *cocks gun*
broke: furina and neuvillette share a color pallette because they're ✨basically related✨
woke: furina and neuvillette share a color pallette because they share their sense of justice, their deep compassion for humanity, their goal (of saving fontainians from their doom and condemning the ursurpers/the seven), and most importantly they share the fate to defy fate together as the two actors with roles nobody else could've played and a storyline they couldn't have pulled off without each other.
