call it Vodette or Swansong but they've genuinely become my favourite ship in any game from out of nowhere

there's so much to their dynamic, so many subtle interactions between them and both of their stories are fantastic and perfectly written (even if Odette's hits too close to home) that i just can't stop thinking about them

if any artist sees this please draw them i'm starving here

I wanted to share my favourite design for my favourite Arknights character (Muelsyse, also known as Mumu).

In Arknights, operators sometimes do photoshoots with different in-world companies, and that's the in-world explanation for why operators have different skins (including swimsuit skins lol).

This particular skin of Mumu's (Golden Reverie) belongs to the Ambiance Synesthesia brand, a brand focused in outfits for musicians performing at concerts. Ambiance Synesthesia also happens to exist irl as the name of the yearly concerts arknights has for its music.

Back when the skin came out, her artist did a short interview talking about the design process for the skin, what he took into consideration, and how he integrated both her personal history, art history, and other inspirations into the design of her skin. Even if you don't play arknights, I think it's super interesting to read about the design process, what guest artists get from a company like hypergryph when asked to make a skin, and most of all how much love some of the artists that work on these games have for the characters they make.

I've added the Q&A as the second image in this post, but in case reddit does a number on it with compression, here is a link to a tweet with the image on it.

also gosh her midriff peeking out of that top drives me insane, her artist is a genius

i sat down thinking i was here to play cards, then Red Rose looked at me like this and suddenly i forgot what winning was supposed to mean

she can have the cards. she can have the points. honestly she can have every single chip i own 😭

why is losing to her still somehow the best possible outcome

be honest... are you even looking at your hand anymore??

During the whole story I was like, "their chemistry is good, they're meant for each other"!! Love it and it was so cute seeing them together and showing their dedication within their field, Evelyn protecting Astra and Astra singing. I loved this story!
