I barely post on here but I am so desperate rn. Can anyone find this Cline Wars fic for me (I have searched so far and so long AND I STILL CANT FIND IT)

The literal plot is like they know about the chips but for some reason the commanders can’t take the chips out so they keep that hidden from everyone. And when Order 66 happens the commanders just like stop themselves anyway possible. In Cody’s case (because it starts in Cody POV) he like shoots himself or smth. Then the other part of the fic is like Rex and Obi Wan like at his bedside and other stuff I can’t remember. Cody does wake up, I think Fox is briefly mentioned and I think it’s mentioned that Wolffe is dead. But ye that’s all I really remember

I would want the full video op

This is a short extract from the goodbye video Viaplay made for Kevin at the Abu Dhabi grand prix. I thought the short interviews here were sweet. I believe they are recorded at the Brazilian grand prix.

Let me know if anyone wants the full video - I think it's around 8 minutes long. As far as I know they recorded a full goodbye episode with him today, so that should also be coming out soon.

Ooh ok five things that make me happy.

My friends I got from this year. I've always had a slight FOMO and a little bit of an imposter syndrome in relation to friends. This is defininetly been actually nice for me, I actually haven't felt anything related to an imposter syndrome this year since I left for university. So I'm really happy to have made the friends I did.

Editing. Editing has always been a form of art that I love to do. I'm still on the newer side of things (like I'm about to hit 5 years now). I've actually made insta moots with editors that I like looked up to. One of them I even got slightly close to and did a lil animal crossing prom thing in a discord with them which was insane. I mean it's crazy when these people you've watched make edits and aspire to make edit slike them, suddenly become mutuals with you on instagram. I started on insta and now I'm on tt. I started with RvB and I went back to RvB after the era we do not talk about but I'm also doing f1 and fe edits.

Motorsports. I've always been a sports jumper. I started with MLB then went to NBA and then NFL. I like to say that the more I get into a sport is based on the funny videos of them. MLB is obvious, I've seen all the old funny videos that I could tell you what happens in the clips. I've seen so many that I've seen so many repeat clips. NBA was more Luka for some reason, I think I liked his trick shot stuff. There isn't a lot of funny moments without involving someone in the negative light, which is different from MLB. Which I loved MLB funny moments that occured between the two teams. And then NFL just happened somehow with some funny things but not a lot. And then I found motorsports through a Brocedes edit. And I just fell in love through the funny moments. My parents sometimes ask me, how do I know so much f1 stuff, and I say it's because I consumed a lot of videos. Which I did, but majority were a funny complimation. And then suddenly formulawah made a guide to formula e, and there were quips in there that made me interested in watching fe. And suddenly now I'm watching all the lil funny montages they have up on the fe channels. And so yeah, f1 and fe make me happy.

Gaming. I play a lot of different genres of games (OXENFREE is my favorite totally recommend try playing it AAAAAAAA I could go on a whole ramble about this). Right now I have a fixation on Stardew Valley (especially with the new update) so I'm gonna binge play that. But I just love gaming, especially games with character designs and stories). And gaming just makes me happy.

Red vs Blue. It's like slightly also making me sad because it's ending (also everything Project Freelancer makes me sad (THERE IS LITERALLY A SONG THATS KINDA HAPPY AND VIBES ARE GOOD CALLED "We'll be coming back" BUT I GET SAD EVERYTIME BC SOMEONE ONCE COMPARED IT TO WASH AND THE FREELANCERS AND I JUST SCREAM) ahem anyways, yeah it can also make me sad). But it also makes me laugh a lot, and I love the characters dearly. Even if I scream in frustration when a fic on ao3 may not update in a month (bc the fandom is like half dead there ngl and that usually means discontinued sometimes). But I love Red vs Blue so much. I bought the fanbook, I bought some like slap bracelets. I just love it and it makes me happy. I could literally anaylyze every single character.

ayo who was gonna tell me that the clone wars rubik’s cube amv was gone (or at least i can’t find it)

I am curious for people who have been in clone wars fandom for a long long time on the YouTube side more, what’s the most iconic song (to you) of a clone wars amv

Ahh it’s finally here!! I had a great honor in working with @lynne-monstr and her fic to create this piece. It’s been super fun to make and I’ve had a blast. Here is the first half of the art piece, with the latter half being released (along with the full piece) at a later date.

Huge thanks to @gloryproalliance for putting this on and working with everyone.

Here is the fic at accompanies the art: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40368858/chapters/101121453

You ever jump around fandoms a lot or like just focus on one thing and then you look at one art of another thing and then Bam! You’re into that thing now. Bc this happens all the fucking time. Too many times. I’ve gone from Clone Wars to Batman to Power Rangers to all sorts of things. And it gets annoying with the amount of tabs open. But there’s always one on the back burner going on too. Rn I’m focused on Top Gun Maverick with a background of Clone Wars, Power Rangers and Red vs Blue god help me.

Have many thoughts. More specifically, thinking of that one scene in OXENFREE (spoilers kinda btw) where Michael and Alex talk about the future. The one where Michael lists a lot of “don’t do drugs or whatever, get good friends, etc.” and how it’s a very sad scene bc it’s like a brother and sister moment and the dialogue that the player can choose can be sad. But why does the matter rn? Well if you replace Alex with Ahsoka and Anakin or Rex with Michael then you get even more sadness :D.

Anyways this also just makes me want to do an Oxenfree Au.

Damn republic of heroes little holocron blurbs of character be wild and interesting.

Ok I actually just now solved my problem but it was very annoying and I still want to bang my head against the wall. So I was right in that I actually went with SCH - SC - MCH - MC for some reason??? With the exception of some scenes being labeled MCH for the fuck of it. (Except Bull follows the SC - SCH - MC -MCH, which I probably will change to fit the og order bc the Naruto shit is too much to change and I’d also have to check if I labeled the epsiode MCH bc of something that happens). 

Also there is a slight problem with FMAB bc some scenes I agree with SC and others I want to change to SCH.... It do be like this

The Favs Doc Fiasco

So, I have a doc titled “Favs Episodes” for the sole reason of listing when one of my favorites of a series appears, along with how prominent they were that episode. Ex: I did all of Shikamaru in Naruto and Naruto Shippuden (yes, every single episode I kinda scimmed through). HOWEVER, there is a slight problem. Cause you see I listed importance roles with the words ‘side character’ (SCH), ‘side cast’ (SC), ‘main cast’ (MC), and ‘main character’ (MCH). Now, just logically thinking, it is obvious for like changes in screen time. 

AGAIN HOWEVER, I took a short break between filling the doc out after doing TKA LA and I don’t remember the order. So I did the obvious one, with SC - SCH - MC - MCH for Bull. But then I looked back at TKA LA (which I did for xsq, ywz, and zxj) for xsq scenes and I’m like “huh, I feel like this is a more MCH role but I have it under MC” (and again there are opposites of areas where it is MCH but it feels more MC, along with areas where it feels right) and then I look through FMAB for Roy and I’m like “wait but that wouldn’t match up for what I have in FMAB” and I would check through Shikamaru but do you know how many fucking episodes it would take to find out because Naruto Shippuden is fucking long and yes I would only have to look through a couple, but I’d have to sit through multiple different versions of each four roles. And just looking it over now, zxj (who btw, I only caught him appearing in like nine fucking episodes [and by appearing I mean he’s somewhere in the scene]) appears in a certain episode that I would label SC but I have it under SCH. 

BUT ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT I’LL ALSO LABEL SOMETHING DIFFERENT FOR THE HECK OF IT.

Like character does something real funny or fucking awesome, fuck yeah let’s put it as MCH. So now I’m just trying to sort through this doc just to find out what order it is in. And honestly will probably go through Shikamaru bc that’s the first one I did and I wanna keep it consistent. (There’s also a huge ass chance that Naruto/Naruto Shippuden, FMAB, TKA LA, and Bull, all follow their own seperate listing of order)

Anyways so that’s my life update :).

Really excited for ep tomorrow but also after that it means we’ll have to wait a longish time probably for the next season bc the manga is in the beginningish middle of the next arc

I TOTALLY FORGOT TO ADD THIS IN THE POST BELOW BUT YES YUKIO KNOWS HE IS ALSO THE SON OF SATAN. And some of the slander I see is about how he’s hypocritical (which he can be yes) but the reasoning isn’t always the best. Yes the opening scene at cram school wasn’t the best, and yes he pointed a gun at his twin, but that doesn’t make him feel entitled? (Ngl idk how y’all can get entitled from his actions?). Yukio’s whole arc in a sense revolves around being the son of Satan. An acknowledgment of who he is. And whenever he talks about the son of Satan stuff I always take it more as a power sense. The blue flames do belong to rin, do they not? It’s a easy tell of being the son of Satan. While you might never even know with Yukio. I feel like the son of Satan stuff is more metaphorically thrown than literal (that might be confusing but idk how else to word it). Anyways just wanted to add that real quick, really hope I ain’t forgetting anything else.

So true so true pop off. You have put exactly how I feel on the treatment towards Yukio into words. And to add on with a little bit to Yukio and Rin’s interactions, and how I view them, Yukio really truly cares for his brother. And it’s seen a lot through out the manga and anime, people just choose to ignore it and look at the harshness of it.

Yukio yelling at Rin because of a mission? Yukio just being an ass then? No. He truly is scared that one day his brothers gonna do something stupid and because of that action Rin will be executed. But the only way Yukio knows how to show it is through yelling and arguing. As said in the above post, Yukio doesn’t care about his own life, he really only cares about Rin’s.

And I do want it add on I love Rin, he’s a great guy, but some of his decisions aren’t always the best. He’s a selfless character which is almost the opposite of Yukio in a sense. The way I view it is that Yukio is selfish of Rin’s life, while Rin himself is selfless towards it to an extent. (Of course Rin doesn’t outright want to die but he doesn’t care about how his positive actions could cause it [not saying it’s bad I’m just stating a fact in a neutral kind of tone]). And you can actually see this in the Blue Exorcist movie, specifically the opening scene with the train.

I think if people paid more attention to the story and depth of each character in Blue Exorcist, they’d might see that Yukio isn’t such a horrible person. And I’m ngl I’m very subjective towards Yukio because I like him a lot. He’s a fleshed out character with relatable feelings and flaws. And I honestly don’t understand some of the hate sent his way. (Of course there were a couple moments where I end up signing and going “Yukio why?” But I still don’t see them as a huge reason to hate him that much).

Also another thing, as I keep adding more and more stuff, Yukio is not an adult. He’s a teenager. Just like Rin. And I feel that people forget that a lot. Yukio is still developing as a person and into an adult. And this fact is even referenced in the manga.

Honestly in the end, Yukio to me is just a really relatable character and not someone who deserves all this hate. Some of the comments I’ve seen about him make me very concerned as a human being. Because the world isn’t black and white, but people tend to view Blue Exorcist with that lens. And so grey characters, such as Yukio, will either get hated on or overlooked, like Shima, for a character who can generally be seen as the good guy, Rin.

I could honestly go on and on about Yukio and how deep his character is, so I’m gonna stop myself here and leave it at that. Also like the post above please don’t respond with unnecessary hate (if you have a genuine comment or question that’s fine)

how do you feel about yukio? most bonrin seem to hate him?

Sorry this one took me a while to answer. Had to get my thoughts straight. So, without further ado:

*gets ready to step on a lot of toes*

Let me start by saying this blog and blogger supports Yukio. You can dislike any character you want, of course, but I won't respond to hate on him. Poor guy gets a lot of that, and I am extremely grateful he isn't an actual person, because there is no way Yukio would survive all the hate and vitriol sent his way if he was an actual person. When you consider the hate he gets and the fact that he is one of the most self-loathing, depressed, and suicidal characters in the manga... it just breaks my heart.

Yukio is, in my opinion (which you're free to disagree with) an extremely well written character, and (again, in my opinion) a sympathetic one. He is one of the best portrayals of a depressed and suicidal character I've seen in manga/anime, and I am so hopeful for the next arc of the manga that he gets some healing from all of that. He's spent most of his life without the proper support he needed (I adore Shirou, but will never agree with the path he chose for Yukio, even if I understand why he did it) and with very little, if any, actual mental/emotional support. Rin wants to help him and love him, but because of the secrets and roles thrust upon them, that wasn't much of an option until very recently, and trusting someone with all of that -- especially if you're already severely depressed and self-loathing -- is not an easy thing to just start doing. If you've spent your life keeping things to yourself, you can't just turn that off.

Especially if one of the things you hate most about yourself is weakness.

In my opinion, a lot of the hate comes from people who have never really done a lot of looking at Yukio as a character. They just see him as someone who was mean to Rin (who in their opinion, never did/does anything wrong) without ever looking at what might have led him down that road.

(It also makes me worry about how they would respond to real life people with depression or suicidal tendencies, and hope desperately that they're more understanding and gentle.)

Yukio has also been a self-destructive character for a while now, and as tends to be the case with self-destructive characters, his destruction tends to spread around to others. (Sorry Rin) He's trying to make the world a better place by getting rid of the corruption around him, and unsurprisingly, it's not going well because this boy with all his self-loathing, also doesn't want to drag anyone else down with him, so he's typically a loner with his actions and plans. His own life isn't worth anything to him, so he's reckless with it and dangerous because of that.

(Which is where a lot of his conflict with Rin comes from. He just wants it to be over and Rin won't take 'leave me alone' as an answer. Neither is great at listening to the other.)

I like Yukio. I want him to find healing and to realize that he has friends he can trust in (I cannot describe how much I love the little meal the cram group shares after Rin temporarily burned Satan connection. I LOVE how much this manga is about friendship and healing together and 🥲)

At the end of the day, Yukio is a boy who is complicated and a lot of why I like him, and Blue Exorcist, is the complexity. They feel real. They don't always do the right thing, or even the logical thing. They make mistakes and they're messy characters. But Yukio still grabs Rin's arm to save him in a fight, and still tears up when his friends call him by his name and forgive him. Yukio loves penguins, comedy manga, and hates cooking. Yukio runs to his twin to eat lunch so he doesn't have to upset the girls in his class, has a million spare glasses, always refers to his twin (who is ostracized by their society) as niisan (never distancing their relation.) He accepted full responsibility for his twin when he was the younger one, and never questioned doing it even if it meant taking on horrible tasks. He's been able to see demons his entire life, and despite spending his childhood terrified of them, worked hard to become the youngest exorcist ever. He loves and hates, and he's a messy character, and I like him.

So, sorry for the word vomit xD That's my opinion on Yukio.

Coming in to say that Two Birds on a Wire gives me so much Wash vibes along with No Children.

Clone Wars Spoilers

Ok I’m going like insane and maybe my mind made this up, but correct me if I’m wrong. Wasn’t there like an article posted a long time ago (before season 5 I believe) that like said Echo wasn’t dead?? Like confirmed that he wasn’t dead? Am I just going mental or??

So like I’ve been thinking bout Fox a lot lately. And honestly, he’s a very hard character to like or dislike. Because his moral views and story telling are slightly flawed by the actual storyline that has been preset.

Realistically, we all knew that the Jedi never really found out about the chips before the order (this is canon verse idk if legends has something where they do). So knowing that, Fives was most likely going to die because he knew about the chips. So thus putting Fox in a position where he HAS to kill Fives. And it ain’t just a character choice, it’s a storyline choice.

So really it’s hard to judge his character since one of his major choices is preset. Of course this would apply for any character if they were in Fox’s position, but we as viewers don’t know if Fox was chosen for a specific reason or not.

Anyways I just wanted to share some brain ideas of mine. Personally I like Fox as a character. He sticks to his morals and everything as we have slightly seen from before.

Haha I am totally not matching the Montgomery Ricky with Clone Wars related stuff.  Pftttt- what I totally am not.

So uh like idk if this has been said or not before but quick take. Some of the og colored armor was red right? Well what if it was chosen to show bleeding/blood. Especially since it was a more darker red and not a light one. Like “hey we’re human too and we also bleed!” That they’re not just clones but also people and so when most groups changed colors, that’s why the Coruscant Guard stays red. But slowly that red changes from showing their human to the color of dying brothers. That they die for these people and they metaphorically paint the dead brothers blood on their armor. And so imagine how much worse it feels during Fives death. Anyways red am I right aha- (gets shot)

Under your skin by jukebox the ghost is a captain Rex song and I don’t take disagreement because I am totally right /lh

I accident auto corrected Hondo to Honda and my friend just started going ahhh my favorite car Hondo Civic so I made these...

The past four nights I have been crying over clone wars someone send help I am rewatching all the amvs and crying

Been reading republic commando and I’m so attached to all the characters I’m afraid of what is to come. I’m only one book away from order 66 now :0. Also every time I see like a mention of Kenobi, Gree doing stuff in there, etc of characters from clone wars I just 👀👀

Techno/Phil Apologists Rise Up

I’ve been thinking about the destruction of L’manburg on the 6th, and how everyone is saying that Techno and Phil went too far. That they didn’t have to destroy everyone’s homes. But the thing is, is that L’manburg, at that point, was no one’s home! The people who fought for it and believed it to be home DIDNT EVEN LIVE THERE! Tommy and Tubbo have continued to call L’manburg their home but have yet to even fully move in.

On the other hand you have the actual citizens of L’manburg. These people have lived in what was supposed to be “home”, a sanctuary for all, and guess what their reaction was to the destruction? THEY CHEERED! The actual L’manburg citizens cheered as it went up in flames because they knew firsthand the corruption and evils which the government had caused. Nikki BURNED THE TREE FOR GODSAKE! These are people who prove Techno and Phil’s point. The government failed the people. Even Ranboo, a citizen who was meant to fight, was aided by Techno and Phil in his attempt to escape the chaos. That nation was home for nobody.

While I do feel for Tommy, Tubbo, Wilbur, and Big Q, I think it’s important to realize that the people they were trying to protect and defend were some of the first to light the match to begin L’manburg’s destruction. They grasp at this false narrative that L’manburg still exists as the sanctuary it once was to justify their point, BUT ITS NOT! The existence of L’manburg itself only served to benefit the feelings of the government who had continuously failed its own citizens, and it should be celebrated that it is gone.

Also

Philza Minecraft and Wilbur are the only ones in SBI that are canonically family and they are DEFINITELY an adult Father and Son.

It may be hard to really conceptualize a time in your life where the stuff that goes on between those two can happen.

But it does happen. Parents and children can be at odds with each other to the point of devastation, to the point where their actions and words go against everything the other believes in.

Phil entered the server and was immediately met with his severely mentally ill adult son about to destroy everything he cared about. Phil tried everything within his power to convince Wilbur not to press that button and Wilbur did it any way. Not to mention that after that Wilbur was suicidal, begging for his father to kill him on the spot, and Phil initially refused to do it before giving his son his last wish.

That moment is a character defining moment. Wilbur started the first government on the server and it broke him completely. Phil 100% blames the existence of that nation for breaking his son and, even if indirectly, causing his death.

Ghostbur is a completely different person than Wilbur, the same memories but in no way the same. With those events in mind the very very careful way Phil deals with Ghostbur makes sense, the man is sympathetic but distant. He is 10,000% still mourning and Ghostbur is a stranger.

The actions that L'Manburg took with Phil are even more harmful when taking these things into account. They were already living in the shadow of Wilbur's death but then they place Phil under house arrest with the intent to blackmail Phil's best friend and then execute Technoblade right in front of Philza's house.

L'Manburg already took one person he loved away from him, no way was Phil going to let it happen for a 3rd time.

So when Phil and Techno destroyed L'Manburg and Ghostbur's everything was unrecoverable, yeah it's sad. It's sad to see Ghostbur lose everything when he didn't take any action against them intentionally. But the destruction wasn't about that. It was revenge, and justice, and a message, and an attempt to stop anything else from happening like it did again. Ghostbur's tragedy was a very very unfortunate side effect. Which it shouldn't have to be. I don't think anyone is arguing the opposite, but to Phil, the man known as the Angel of Death, the man who will desperately protect what he has left, it's an acceptable loss.

Both Ghostbur and Philza are in the right here and they can't really say sorry or try to make things better because they are an adult father son duo with different perspectives and reasonings that make them both correct.

So miss me with the Phil is a bad dad BS, Wilbur is a grown up dead man and parents/kids can be on opposing sides in conflict and often are. This isn't a matter of their relationship, it's a matter of conflict and war and how every action has a consequence.

Thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

//I have to say it even tho I love the meme- Phil has not adopted Ranboo as his son. He- on the request of Technos and loyalty of Ranboos actions came to get him. Techno said Ranboo a good "kid" and they (Phil and Techno). Talked a little about him and Techno felt "bad". Phil moral system is kinda hard to pin down. But he goes to get Ranboo because lets be honest no one gave a fuck enough to get him. He was homeless but even the "bad guy" came back for him.

// Philza and Wilbur are the only canon family. No if and or butts about it. Ghostbur is a sore spot for him that no one really asks about.

I think it really stuck out how Phil switch between too modes with Ghostbur.

When he screams about friend, Philza stand his ground he does not regret helping in destroying L'Manberg. But quickly tires to sooth him. Because he can't quite dissociate Alive Wilbur and Ghostbur. He openly admits that he has been looking into bring Wlibur back. But he doesn't go into detail and Techno does not push him.

When Ghostbur comes back (talking about the kill me again to bring me back.) He tires (the way Philza plays his character can be read in so many ways. This is my interpretation of it.) To distances himself vocally from Ghostbur. And becomes eerily quiet, at the talk of him having to kill Wilbur again. On a whim, on a chance that MAYBE it brings Wilbur back. A connection he still see ghostbur as his son- then Ghostbur talks about remaking L'Manberg and Phil disassociate again, he hards and flat out disconnects (from voice chat lol). Not My Son.

We talk about betrayal but Phil was never on a side. He was with L'Manberg at the start because it was something his son created. Not for his own personal gain the one to gain was Wilbur.

Heres a prefect example, Fundy and Niki of their own accord fuck over L'Manberg in its final moments. That is real betrayal, Phil who floats between who ever needs him allies with no one.

Expect on one motive to destroy L'Manberg after he has silently gone through his own trauma. It ruined his kid- and in a way, proved GLatt right. (Without him everything would be destroyed.)

Let me round back to just how broken up Phil feels about Wilbur. And how him killing him was not Phil fault. (To save some from my long ass post heres a summary.) There was not a single out for Wilbur after he destroyed L'Manberg. He beg for death because Wlibur could not live with the guilt and tinge of madness. To confront his friends after a sweeping victory that he single handedly ruined. No- even ghostbur says everyone hated Alivebur.

And its true- they won he couldn't just let it be. (Back to phil-)

No one notices, Phil doesn't hate the individual person. Its not that personal, its the government. And in a way he tells them it has corrupted them all. This isn't him trying to justify his actions. Its the truth. He held the blade that killed his son. And he watched as people torn each other apart over L'Manberg. Exiling people, the fight over who would rule, the literal public execution, the countless betrayals, the manipulation. Lets not forget the favorite green boy who stirrs the pot from the sidelines doesn't help neither.

We don't see Phil reaction after Wilburs death by his hands. He disappears. (besides some goofs and gafs but im talkin hard canon.)

When it came to sneaking into the Festival. Its like he's telling himself, more than he is to anyone else. "I wasn't invited so I'm not going." (It's like he's trying to convince himself.) But I think he knew no one was really invited. He is building a farm in the middle of the fucking artic for goodness sake. That is 100% busy work to keep his mind from spiraling. He didn't want to go and he just listen to what happen from Techno. He doesn't get involve social personal relationships like Techno. Techno build friendships and get betrayed.

Phil builds nothing because it never meant to becomes personal- until destroying L'Manberg is put on the table. Phil agrees but not for Techno cause- not for Dream, not really because of the government. Government only plays a small part and then it finally gets personal when he he brings up Wilbur.

Wilbur won hands down, they got the victory. They got L'Manberg back as Phil tries to reason with Wilbur who still clicks the button anyway. Other than that, he doesn't share the same hatred as Techno. No investment like Tommy, Tubbo and the rest. Phil sits in limbo, until someone ask something of him.

It was Wilbur his son and Techno his close friend. No one else. One he had to kill because of his own madness. The second he allied himself with for his own personal reason.

Cause I can guarantee, Techno, nor Dream, nor Tommy even thought about Wilbur during the end. But Phil sure did, he showed just a small glimpse of his true feelings.

FUN FACT TIME:

The ending of Clone Wars and Ahsoka novel are basically the same (there are slight changes tho) so let’s keep that in mind with what I’m about to say.

Going off the novel, after the burriel of the clones, Ahsoka and Rex would part ways. That’s right you heard it here. Ahsoka and Rex go in different directions after the crash. :)

It isn’t Christmas now but I wanted to add on a little fact. I lived in Russia for two and half years as a child, so I remember the culture that was there. Every Christmas we (my family and people living in the area) would go to the forest and people would be dressed up as the Snow Wizard family. There would be a pile of logs in the winter and from what I remember we sang a song and then lit the logs up and created a non fire. I also went to a private school so when it was winter there, we had a little play with the theme of the family. Russian culture is really interesting and once your like approved as a Russian by other Russians, it’s like having one big family.
