I just discovered foodtimeline.org, which is exactly what it sounds like: centuries worth of information about FOOD.  If you are writing something historical and you want a starting point for figuring out what people should be eating, this might be a good place?

Merry Christmas Everyone - Character Trauma

Sorry, Y'all. I'm a day late.

I wish I could have posted yesterday but this wasn't on my mind at all lol. I was very sick yesterday, but at least I'm alive!

Here's my Christmas gift to y'all!

Harsh characters vs Kinder Characters - These are general vibes --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kind/Cute Characters -

Constantly Apologizing

Trying to help people 24/7

Always worried about Disappointing people

Constantly avoiding answering questions

Lying about being okay

Blaming themselves

Always Guilty

Jumpy

Always inches away from crying

Always doing favors for others

Doesn't take care of themselves

If they do, it's only to keep other people from getting worried

Running away from problems

Constantly overreacting to minor inconveniences

Harsh/Reserved characters -

Violent outbursts

TRUST ISSUES

No emotions

Too much noise also makes them irritable

Hyper-activated Emotions

Emotionally or Physically abusing self on a bad day because it already sucked

Violent intrusive thoughts or words become normal

Pessimism

Constantly overly alert

NO RELAXATION

Trouble relating to anyone in any sort of way

Extra: Dreams

PTSD dreams are usually never anywhere close to the actual events

Flashbacks usually happen when awake

Often dreams are based on the type of trauma

Soldiers are more likely to see blood in dreams

Sexual abuse survivors are more likely to have people attacking or violating them in dreams

Physical abuse survivors are more likely to have loud sounds and other events related to their abuse in their dreams

Of course none of these are specific to each type, and you SHOULD mix and match, but these are generally more likely

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Different people have different trauma reactions, and so should characters. This sounds pretty obvious, but it's rather hard to do in my experience. It also goes to show that different types of trauma or traumatic events will make a different type of character

For example, I have a few of my characters and their trauma responses because Idk how else to explain it.

Character 1 - Marril - Experienced Physical and Emotional abuse, as well as witnessing several deaths and killing several people.

As a Child he used to be very exposed and unable to hide with short hair and a home that was generally very safe and quiet until it wasn't.

He has a tendency to break or destroy things out of resentment or just as a way to make himself feel better. He also generally obsesses over keeping things clean, because it usually meant better treatment at home. He also generally stays away from children because they remind him of the first person he killed. He also sometimes hallucinates blood on his hands, and isolates himself for fear of hurting them. He hides his emotions until he can't anymore and generally has very extreme negative emotions.

He is often mistaken to be much older than he actually is, and is generally very quiet. He also grows out his hair to distance himself from his past and to give himself an easy hiding place when he needs it. He hates people grabbing him, moving quickly, or touching his hair, and sometimes he will hurt or yell at people when even slightly provoked. Silence often triggers overthinking which brings guilt and bad memories, while sudden loud noises cause screaming, fight or flight, or even flashbacks.

Characters 2 & 3 - The Twins, Xhaazi and Kasi - Experienced emotional and Sexual abuse

The two of them have varied Emotional responses. Kasi tends to hide her emotions and act overly aggressive or overly friendly. She tends to be very tense and in many occasions, fight first ask questions later. She cannot tolerate being alone oftentimes and is sometimes clingy. She hates being restrained in any way and is prone to panic attacks and separation anxiety

She's generally a little reserved but becomes a little clingy when she finds people she likes. She is also over-apologetic and tends to cry around people she trusts for no reason. She always has nightmares and tends to enjoy loud noises because they distract her from her overthinking and anxiety.

While on the other hand, her Brother Xhaazi

He was the one who got it worse. He often injures himself when he's alone, hides his emotions extremely well, and tends to enjoy being alone or in silence. His tactics also amount to fight first ask questions later, but he is always in fight or flight mode and never trusts anyone unless given a good reason.

He tends to get very clingy to those he trusts and hates loud noises. He also tends to have a lot more nightmares than his sister and tends to cover up every single emotion he's feeling unless he thinks people will like it. He has depression and a lack of self-preservation along with extreme separation anxiety for his family and no one else when he can't easily get back to them.

So uh... Yeah? Have fun torturing your babies! Just make sure to differ their trauma from one another even if they experienced roughly the same things.

Make a list of ways people express irritation. Gestures, verbal tics, indirect responses are all fair game. Here's a few to get you started:

A barbed comment such as "I see you got dressed in a rush this morning"

Not leaving enough space as you walk past someone

Moving an object of theirs and putting one of yours in its place

Slamming a door

Colours in LOONA

(Note: credit to Croissant de LOONA on Youtube, who came up with the original Color Theory. Even though I might deviate/add extra details to make my own, they did come up with the base for it.)

I’m focusing on Haseul, Kim Lip, Hyunjin, Choerry, Yeojin and Jinsoul for this. Firstly I’d like to point out how they are all linked in the song Colors (Hyunjin and Choerry in the chorus and Hyunjin singing about purple and Choerry singing about mirrors, Haseul and Kim Lip doing a duet for the bridge, that excellent Jinsoul and Yeojin choreography).

Of course if we look at their debut colours we can split them into primary colours (Kim Lip, Hyunjin, Jinsoul) and secondary colours (Yeojin, Haseul, Choerry). But then the XIX teaser dropped, and while Haseul, Hyunjin and Jinsoul didn’t have any reference to their colours, the other three did (ik it’s hard to see Kim Lip’s eye but lots of people are saying it’s there so oiqhfjrisyhdos):

At first I wrote this off as them being connected to Kim Lip (red + yellow = orange, red + blue = purple). Then I didn’t think about this again until I saw a post talking about secondary colours. Tbh I still don’t know what that post was talking about but a few weeks ago, I remembered something important: the logos on Haseul’s and Yeojin’s MV’s:

Haseul has a dark red while Yeojin has a pure blue, which are the opposite of their debut colours, green and orange.

Haseul’s colour change is especially interesting because in Let Me In, there’s a scene where her eyes turn silver:

Silver can be considered Olivia Hye’s colour. Guess which other primary colour is connected to Olivia Hye? That’s right, Jinsoul and her royal (dark) blue. Meaning Olivia Hye could be considered responsible for some of the colour changes in the LOONAVERSE.

The original Colors Theory states that Choerry was created in Hyunjin’s absence. But we can take that two steps further: Haseul, Hyunjin and Jinsoul are the original primary colours, while Kim Lip, Choerry and Yeojin were created as... back-ups? Second-in-commands? Which is why it’s only the latter three’s colours that appear in the XIX teaser.

Which brings us to Chuu and Go Won, the original orange and green girls respectively. When the two and Haseul and Yeojin get corrupted, Yeojin and Haseul become the new orange and green girls respectively.

Next post, I’ll cover the layout of the LOONAVERSE and the roles of LOONA, which helps to explain yyxy’s storyline.
