So, I think we all know that the main reason Hoyo had to bench Mydei for the next few patches is because we can't have Phainon corruption/ depression arc if this guy is around, right?
Whether you see it in a platonic or romantic light, it's obvious that they care about each other, also Mydei can tell when Phainon is trying to hide his feelings/ put on a brave face and even goes out of his way to try and cheer up Phainon...
In other words, they had to take away Phainon's emotional support kremnoan...
The more I think about it the more I realize that if this guys had met under different circumstances, they would have gotten along super well.
PENACONY SPOILERS UP TO 2.2 + CHARACTER LORE / STORIES
All 4 of them have lost their entire family, 3 of them have lost their entire race / homeworld (Boothill, Aventurine, Acheron), 2 of them lost these things because they were victims of the IPC (Boothill and Aventurine), and 2 of them have either lost a sibling or are afraid of losing a sibling (Aventurine and Sunday).
More specifically:
As far as I know, Sunday and Robin's parents were killed somehow, and they were taken in by the Family. Then as Sunday said Robin ended up getting shot in the neck due to trying to help others, and I think he got some kind of trauma from that and his fear of losing Robin, his sister and only remaining family, was amplified, leading to his desire to protect "the weak" no matter the cost—because to him, keeping Robin's wings "clipped" and her alive would be less painful than her bring gone, and him being alone forever.
Boothill, as I understand it, was taken in by 2 people who found him as a child, and grew up in the countryside of his planet. He later found and adopted a young girl and raised her as her own, until his entire planet was destroyed by the IPC, causing him to set out to get revenge.
Aventurine also lost his sister and his entire home planet due to the IPC + his planet's own problems, and has been forced to work for the IPC ever since. It also seems like he's trying to destroy it from the inside out or at least obtain his own freedom.
As for Acheron, her entire world, as well as her memories of it, were destroyed—she's almost certainly lost people that were important to her, like the other three.
Like honestly if they all sat down and traded backstories I feel like they'd get along super well, they're all victims of circumstance and that's why they experienced so much conflict during the story
This, right here, has got to be my favourite canon art
Its not like its one of those ethereal art pieces, the type those god gifted artist make, but oh dear, I love the symbolism it shows…
The fact that Ivan is holding on to Till dearly and is quite literally an inch or two away from his face with his eyes set on him but then theres Till. He is very much being held by Ivan in place, if Ivan released his hold he’ll fall and yet he chooses not to acknowledge it - too engrossed in whatever is in his mind. He doesn’t seem uncomfortable or anything in Ivan’s arms - it’s like he is completely content in this position.
Ivan’s screaming that he’s here for him, that he wants him but Till is deaf.
Ivans position symbolises how hes always looking out for Till and protecting him (like taking off his muzzle and collar, releasing him from those solitary confinements, freaking help him escape their hell-) whereas Till doesnt acknowledge this - or dare i say refuses to do so - despite being dependant on Ivan to keep him from falling and is always focused on Mizi instead (he barely looked at Ivan in all of his flashback scenes)
And when Ivan let go of Till, he fell and he realised the anchor Ivan posed as and his significance in his life. (Ivan died and Till was left distraught and depressed - and he was thinking about him throughout round 7)

Happy Lunar New Year! 🐍🏮🎆
To celebrate the year of the snake, I wanted to combine the snake with my other favorite scaled animal, the goldfish! Growing up as little kid in China, I was always fascinated by the goldfish and koi ponds that are scattered in every park and apartment complex. I would stare at them for hours, mesmerized by their shiny scales and graceful movements. Hopefully I was able to capture that in this painting :D
