“Curious about these eyes? They can finally embrace the light.”

It’s been one year since I first cosplayed Aglaea - so I’m sharing these pictures from @mcmcomiccon last October 💛 She’s a character that means a lot on my cosplay journey - the confidence boost she gave me motivated me to do more creative photoshoots, bolder ideas, and interacting more with the community. June 2025 was a turning point that I felt the sense of belonging, of progress, of the desire to strive for deeper and broader expressions - it’s been a year now and I’m so so grateful for all the support and inspiration I received from friends and moots, as I try my best to reciprocate it by making more chaotic slay soup (you scheming seamstress - in cipher’s voice:3)

P.S. I picked the orchestral version of love story as the music cuz it not only fits aglaea but is also my go-to bgm when I get into the mood of cosplaying demure mindful characters ⚜️

Thank you Paolo for the amazing photos at mcm!!

“This scenery is wonderful… surely enough to convince anyone to become a wanderer.”

It’s almost the end of autumn aka the perfect timing to post our dear samurai boi kazuha 🍁 this was my first ever costume that I wore back then in 2022 when I started my cosplay journey, cliche but it’s touching to see how much I’ve improved throughout the years:’) I love his calm and focused energy, the delicate balance between his soothing poetic words and his determined unwavering strikes, he’s still one of the most serene yet badass characters in genshin 🍂

We’ve had a blast during the photoshoot, the scenery is literally made for him and it was lovely connecting with nature (aka touching grass) and vibing in the tranquil atmosphere:) Thank you Paulo for the amazing camerawork and lighting, and Bryan and Rae for assisting with the poses and the costume!

Chilling in Phuket like it’s a lifestyle 🏝️💧
Good vibes, warm water, and palm trees all around.
This place was pure peace.
