the way of the eclipse

quick little fun facts about these characters

Tsukuyomi:

1. Tsukuyomi struggles with timekeeping, often relying on others like Yuzu or Luna to inform her of the hour. Her constant asking can sometimes lead to amusing exchanges, as she’s never quite sure when she’s supposed to be doing what.

2. Tsukuyomi has a quirky habit of jotting down little reminders on scraps of paper and hanging them around the house. She does this to ensure Yuzu and Luna remember important tasks. Despite her efforts, she often finds herself redoing the reminders because, as she puts it, “They never seem to last as long as the paper they’re written on!”

3. A true clean enthusiast, Tsukuyomi’s home is pristine and orderly, save for Luna’s room, which she jokingly calls “the Bermuda Triangle of cleanliness.” Tsukuyomi can’t stand the thought of dirt and grime but makes an exception for Luna’s chaotic yet endearing mess.

4. The intricate face markings on Tsukuyomi’s face are a significant part of her heritage. In her tribe, these markings are either inherited or earned through ritual if not present at birth. Tsukuyomi’s markings are inherited, while Luna, who does not have them, chose to have a delicate star tattooed beneath her eye, symbolizing her bond with her sister.

Yuzu:

1. Yuzu’s hair grows so long that it often tangles around her feet, causing her to trip over it. Despite its troublesome length, she refuses to cut it, believing it holds sentimental value, reminiscent of the old belief in her world that hair retains the memories and experiences of its owner.

2. Yuzu has a tendency to zone out when faced with complex or uninteresting topics. She can often be found drifting into her own world, her gaze unfocused, which leads to endearing yet sometimes confusing moments for those around her.

3. A playful spirit, Yuzu occasionally hangs upside down by her hair, even using this position to nap. She finds the inversion oddly comforting and a fun way to pass the time, much to the amusement and occasional concern of her friends.
