Sunshine challenge Prompt 5 : 35 Blue icons+others

[abyss_valkyrie]

Blue is a tranquil color that is associated with a variety of things including: balance, discovery, peace, calm, openness, patience, honor, grace, trust, depression, recovery, prophecy, respect, empathy, flexibility, and water.
Blue is often introspective and deep in its calm stillness.

So we're at my favourite colour. I do like every shade of blue,I've never seen a shade I disliked...like ever?!XD
Oddly,I have very few clothes that are blue. Not just clothes,but there's a lack of blue in the material things I own. I do gravitate towards blue a lot when drawing/colouring. Around 2018 I noticed that almost all my icon posts had more blue icons & started actively trying to use other colours.
There are plenty of things to talk about with blue so again, this post is divided into cuts. Sorry for the giant post!


Part 1:Mo Dao Zu Shi & The Untamed

Respect,grace,balance,calm,peace,honor,trust,patience are all very much embodied by the people of the Lan sect.The Lan sect is represented by a Blue Cloud symbol. The members of the sect wear a white ribbon "to regulate oneself".

I absolutely had to make a gif of the Lan brothers because look at them! This is one thing I wish we'd gotten in the drama. Gifset version on Tumblr.


Moving on to The Untamed(drama)

My favourite character Lan Xichen from Mo dao zu shi/ The Untamed had to be iconed, especially the drama version because he has plenty of blue outfits. :D

Part 5: Miura Haruma. CW: Mention of suicide so please refrain if this triggers you.


If you've ever been into Japanese shows/movies, Miura Haruma is very recognizable. Just yesterday on twitter I saw the shocking news of his death, allegedly suicide, and it really truly brought me to tears. I'm not good with words so I honestly can't explain how deeply sad I am about this.



I don't have a lot of celebrities I can call 'favourite' but he was one of the few. One of my first J-drama was 'Samurai High School' with Miura Haruma playing the main character. The latest of his shows I'd been watching was 'Two Weeks' but was waiting for subtitles to finish it fully.
His acting skills were superb, the kind where I cry when he cries, I am angry when he's angry etc.

The whole idea of 'you never know what another person is going through' really hit hard yesterday. He was one of Japan's most popular actor, successful,famous and all of that. I may not be able to fathom the idea of taking one's own life but I hope he's in a better place. I will miss his beautiful smile and so much more. That's all I can say.



Because I was so blue all of yesterday,I saw that oldtoadwoman was taking requests for blue icons here and I requested for some Miura Haruma ones. The ones with his smile just made my heart ache so much. Here are the beautiful icons I received:
