✨🎪 circus event (part 1) liveposting thoughts!

this will not make much sense if u haven't read the event lmao! - YAY!!! we’re in solaria!!! (i thought we might be considering pv dante mentions something abt an inaugural bonfire?)

…. the shadow circus 👀 - i really dig the aesthetic of this event… the card looks didnt entirely sell me but the dark circus + the mix of soft pastel circus is v nice. i like the patterns too - garu the drawerrrrrrrrr

- theyre friends frfr.........

- DANTE AT THE CIRCUS!!!!! (offtopic, but i like that the chapter titles for this one are 'uncanny'.... good vibes....) - 'i asked first' ok enten sama. that's your boyfriend bro, be nice - ooooo honorary ringmaster..... i guess the circus is kind of a big deal for him to be coming out to do that? - oooo around the world. i wonder if dante was the sort of kid to dream about running away and joining the circus - ooooo eiden u care so much about solaria and dante that ur talking to him about the economyyyyy - and dante 🧐u were going to invite him to see the circus. interesting. almost as if you. like him or something - DANTE COMPLIMENTS FOR GARU!!!! CON-CRIT FOR THE PUPPY!!! - hehe handsome devil - bro is so weak to garu...... the power of puppy... - "we?" <-- guy about to get roped into hijinks - SOOLEY MENTION!!! (I HOPE HE SHOWS UP...) - guy who is tempted by rare beasts and praise... they got u hook, line and sinker bro..... - awww eiden made the outfits.... - he made them so fast........... in one night??? - EIDEN HAS A PIGEON??? BRO U ARE NOT AN ANIMAL HANDLER... THAT BETTER BE STUFFED. - oooo so rock paper scissors in this world is boulder wind claw… interesting📝garu fr likes dante…. very funny for him to tip the scales like that. brotherly squabbling - oh eiden... your naming processs.... it really is too beautiful to comprehend - upon closer inspection that thing (the pigeon) is def alive or at least charmed by magic. eiden.... if that is a real bird....... - friendship huddle.... theyre so cute... (also this is out of order, but karu's atheticism and dante's skill are such a fun combo, esp since they rile each other up) - LMAO..... ZACK??? (normal ass name) - (jotting down notes) anti-yokai sentiment in solaria? - p impressive performance (jotting down more notes) dante can form shapes with his fire.... - YAY!!! im glad this is going so well!! its a very sweet precursor to what im hoping is some creepy darkness - oooo i like zacks design (at least, what i can see of it) - looneytoons stack peering through the curtains - OOO ZACKS DESIGN FUCKS ACTUALLY? its v nice... red white and black... the best palette.... the bg music being slightly slowed is such a nice uncanny touch - mmmmm v fun and unsettling.... - dante's expression in this card are so full of attitude lmao... - that's right play nice dante ASDKKLSAD garu was just trying to have a nice moment man - ah... ur social skills, sun lord.... - eiden translating right in front of his face.... it is v funny (and sweet) to me that dante, presumably, pushed everything in his schedule a little forward so he could compete with them <3 - oh his name is bruin... two named npcs! huh! garu do not go with him....... - 'absolute perfection'...... - LETS GO KARU!!! - karu creep sense activated........ - yokai microaggression moment - i rly like how the event highlights how similar karu and dante are... or at least, how their ideals align... they feel like such a rare duo - 'identity is not determined by titles' is a very interesting quote from dante…. 📝📝 - dante backstory mention..... enei moment real... have a little fun sun lord - three... three named npcs (ah ah ah) - the conflict is v good... i didnt expect it to veer this way when the pv came out but this is a v circus appropriate conflict - ah... dante and eiden putting the puzzle pieces together - ooooo v interesting that being a 'yokai' would be so desirable performance-wise. to go to this extent... - erm bruin yokai fetish - [its always sunny titlecard] "The Gang Busts Circus Abuse" now to await part 2...

Yeah I have trauma about it but unfortunately it's a really stupid thing to have trauma about. Yeah honestly if it had happened in a different way at a different time it would have been completely fine and normal. Yeah man like it was just a total confluence of circumstance and now my brain has an allergy against it. Yeah like a peanut allergy but stupider.

wlw being mentioned in Nu Carnival lore made me so happy

There is some Seven Seas shit going on in my For You.

briefly rewatched a blood key room to remind myself of the tone and framing of the flashback (relevant to @contacthigh520's time travel posting)

age diagnosing points:

Olivine refers to Agnus as a senior classmate. most likely just as in older classmate and not in the American sense of the term, since nuca's translators are based in Taiwan. since ST seems to be a university equivalent it could be a mixed age class, and it could be that Agnus is on the older end of the typical age range or he's been a student longer or just that he's older than Olivine specifically

no one's particularly concerned on the angle of "you're openly admitting to knowingly letting a kid watch you fuck?" which may point to Olivine being not that young here, or it could be that people are so caught up on "Olivine simply would not" that the fridge horror doesn't occur to them

also, the defenses are focused on Olivine specifically being too good for it, as something that makes him special. so he's at minimum an age where someone of his age would be expected to have sexual interests, making him exceptional for supposedly not having sexual interests

so based on this scene I would ballpark Olivine as 16+, I think. maybe 14+ if we consider the possibility of Klein being more blase about minors and sex
