I LOVE Houseki no Kuni. This is a surprise to literally no one. The /lustrous guy, the "Hmong-Gem" guy, the "Made from chrysoberyl and phosphophyllite" guy, the "Real life gem" guy... likes hnk??? noooo....

Hnk quite literally changed my life and in a way "saved me", so it is a crucial part to my identity! I found a sense of understanding and belonging in hnk at a time in my life when I think I needed it most.

Ever since around August of 2023 I've based majority of my identity off of Hnk and still kind of do lollol.... I enjoy calling myself a "real life Gem" and I guess I do hold a somewhat serious belief in that? It's just like so naturally what I am now lol....


I often find myself relating characters from hnk back to my friends so here’s a list of that

Cinnabar - Callie
Diamond - Ash
Red Beryl - Mari
Padparadscha - Ross
Sphene - Lass
