Genshin Guys As Figure Skaters (& More) At The Rink Part 2:

genshin guys as figure skaters (& more) at the rink part 2:

characters: kaeya, kaveh, kazuha, tartaglia, thoma, tighnari, venti, wanderer, xiao, xingqiu, zhongli

disclaimer: all based on my own experiences & hc's as a former figure skater!

part 1:

-------------------------------------------------------

kaeya:

another of dain's students. practically lives at the rink. that one guy everyone has a crush on. one of the best singles skaters. menace on the ice in both senses of the term (v fast) (& teases everyone). stunning programs. teaches Learn to Skate classes on the side & is v good with the kids (klee's in his class). iconic move is his no-hands hydroblade & sassy high kick after landing his triple axel (no this is definitely not inspired by yuzuru hanyu haha what are you talking abt).

kaveh:

complains about the fading artistry from figure skating. v beautiful programs & extremely good at expressing emotion. the one who breaks down after his ending position in competition. unfortunately broke, so skates for a few weeks & then disappears for months on end. religiously takes nilou's ballet classes (does not help with the broke aspect but at least nilou loves him). iconic move is his stunning spiral.

kazuha:

from the same rink as heizou, but shows up even less frequently. still, his grace & flow is the envy of all. beidou's student (she commutes back & forth between the two rinks).

tart:

menace. clown. also practically lives at the rink. doesn't actually skate much during practice, but is somehow still v good. teases everyone. the reckless guy sprinting around the ice instead of skating. iconic moves are his high af Russian split jump & gravity-defying cantilever. occasionally helps out with Learn to Skate. god help the class who gets him & kaeya paired as teachers bc they are chaos incarnate.

thoma:

front desk guy. brings his dog to work. friendly af. everyone lowkey has a crush on him. will let regulars in for free when they run out of passes & forget money to pay for more. drives the zamboni.

tighnari:

the substitute medic when baizhu is on sick leave. kind but has little tolerance for stupid people. yells at the public skaters walking around on the unpadded areas & kids who kick their rental skates against the bleachers (damages the blades).

venti:

local musician. popular choice for program music; but everyone either hates or loves him since his songs are rather overplayed. shows up to all the competitions in horrible incognito (literally just a pair of sunglasses & the occasional fake mustache).

wanderer:

the kid who hates being there. grumpy af abt being forced to skate. is actually not bad tho, just really hard on himself. the person who keeps restarting his program music bc he messed up, even if it was small. secretly likes showing off. iconic move is his dramatic af spider lunge.

xiao:

zhongli's student. v v good & v fast. jumping machine, probably has quads. doesn't talk or smile much. rarely helps with the Learn to Skate program bc the kids are scared of him. iconic move is his biellmann spin since he's actually flexible enough for it.

xingqiu:

the supportive friend who comes to watch chongyun skate. always carries a book with him. chongyun is a little embarrassed but always glad to have xingqiu & the rest of the liyue squad cheering for him when he steps onto the ice for competition.

zhongli:

cool af older coach. probably won multiple Olympics & Worlds in his time but no one has any idea until they look him up online. everyone & their parent want him as a coach. fully booked tho so rather difficult to get lessons with him as a new student. rarely gets on the ice, mostly stands behind the boards & coaches from there. however, every time he does step onto the ice, everyone can immediately see the old Olympian in him.

7 big gifs and 1 bonus gif of woo do-hwan as nam seon-ho in “my country: the new age”, showing his first character arc in episodes 1-4 through colors and his wardrobe. the big gifs contain small gifs in honeycomb shapes to show the details. gif 1: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a close shot from his shoulders up as he raises his head smiling while they are playing and sparring in the forest, the second being a wide shot of him walking next to hwi and joking with him. the three small gifs: the first is a detail shot of his black lacquer and mother-of-pearl bow, the second a wide shot of him drunkenly dancing with a fan in ihwaru, and the third a close shot of his face as he hides among dyed fabrics and closes his eyes, making the momentous decision to use his father’s name to help his friend. he’s wearing turquoise in all the scenes. the text reads: “turquoise: dreaminess, secrecy, youth”.

gif 2: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a close shot from his shoulders up as he applies for the exam, raising his gaze after being mocked, the second one being a wide shot of him from the waist up as he looks heartbroken, crying after realizing he must keep silent about the bribe. the two smaller gifs: the first is of him slightly bending down with a kind, pretty smile to compliment yeon, the second is of him holding the flower hat of the exam winner as he looks down in shame. he’s wearing two different outfits, one being the everyday hanbok of a noble while the other is his outfit as the exam winner. both are light blue. the text reads: “light blue: tranquility, softness, weakness”.

gif 3: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a close shot panning up to his face from his shoulders as he looks down at his clothed wounded arm, the second one being a wide shot of him from the waist up as his father tells him about the invitation to the royal hunting grounds. the two small gifs: the first is a wide shot as he draws the bow, showing off his small waist and the dark leather belt wrapped around it, and the second one is a detail shot of his black lacquer and mother-of-pearl bow as he puts it back down on the rack. he’s wearing his deep blue training outfit in all the scenes. the text reads: “deep blue: responsibility, knowledge, fragility”.

gif 4: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a close shot of his face as he kneels before general yi and accepts his bow, clearly shaky and nervous, the second one being a wide shot of him as he sits next to hwi on the porch of the latter’s house, inviting him to come along to the hunt as a chaser. the two small gifs: the first is a close shot of his face as he smiles down softly at hwi during the hunt, and the second one is a close shot of his face as he turns around, smiling softly at hwi. both his casual hanbok and his hunting outfit are white. the text reads: “white: innocence, purity, vulnerability”.

gif 5: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a shot from his shoulders up as he looks down and smiles, delighted, the second one being a wide shot of him as he walks side by side with hwi. the three small gifs: the first is a shot of his upper body after he defends hwi so he can apply for the exam, still holding the spear behind his back as the wind plays with his hair, the second a close shot of his bound hands as a sword cuts through the rope, and the third being a wide shot of his back as he is alone in his room, sliding his hanbok down his shoulder to clean and dress his wound. the first outfit is light pink, while the second is a deeper shade, showing the progression to a darker color. the text reads: “pink: romance, playfulness, kindness”.

gif 6: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a shot from his shoulders up as he looks up at his father, clearly aggrieved as he is given his brother’s bow, the second one being a wide shot of him as he is standing next to hwi right before the exam. the two small gifs: the first is a shot of his torso during a training session where he releases his wooden sword and catches it with his left hand behind his back, showing that he’s learned how to be ambidextrous, and the second a close shot of how he drops his head down on the ground and his bloody hands after hwi is brutally dragged away from the exam site. he wears his red-shimmering training outfit first before wearing the exam outfit, both of them lavender. the text reads: “lavender: gracefulness, creativity, indecisiveness”.

gif 7: 2 big gifs blended together, the first being a close shot from his shoulders up as he looks up at his father in surprise after the latter barged into his room, the second one being a wide shot of him from the waist up after killing his first man in the kangmujang. the two small gifs: the first is a shot of his shaking hands as he tries to nock an arrow, and the second is a wide shot of his back as he rushes into nam manor, carrying yeon. he is wearing purple in all the scenes. the text reads: “purple: power, nobility, certainty”.

Nam Seon-ho & His Sanguine Training Outfit

Nam Seon-ho & his sanguine training outfit

[ID: 6 gifs from “My Country: The New Age”, episode 2, where Seon-ho trains for the military exam. He wears an embroidered lavender robe that shimmers red, underneath it a dark purple robe with lavender and pale yellow vambraces; his belt is the same shade of yellow. His headband is a deep royal blue, and his bright cyan pants become visible in the side splits of his outer robes when he moves. In the first gif he picks up his wooden sword, the camera panning from foot to head to display his full outfit. In the second gif he fights his instructor, weaving around him and throwing his leg out in a high spinning kick. In the third gif they lock swords and the instructor pushes Seon-ho back. In the fourth gif Seon-ho drops his sword from his weak injured right arm to his left one. In the fifth gif he uses a two-handed grip on his sword for his counterattack, and this time it’s the instructor who is sent stumbling and sliding back. In the sixth gif Seon-ho raises his sword to his instructor’s neck; he has won this round. /End ID]
