Two women standing side by side. The one on the left is wearing an all gray combat outfit and a veil. Her face is plain under the veil. The one on the right is wearing grey shorts and an oversized yellow and blue sweater. Her eyes are red from crying.
Hyperion, the one on the left, is the god aspect or what makes up Luna's mind. This aspect is the culmination of everything Luna strives to be: A "Perfect" Selene. They have the information about every weapon's strengths and weaknesses, they know the histories and have studied the stories, they have mastered techniques that have been passed down for thousands of years. If they have a target, they've calculated the best way to take them down without hesitation and by following the Goddess's tenets to a perfected degree. The only problem is that they don't feel victory or defeat, they don't feel joy or sadness, they don't feel anything. They've done every little thing correctly and without flaw, but they're not what the Goddess wants in the slightest. She doesn't want a tool to fight for her, she wants to connect with someone emotionally and experience life with them. If this aspect was allowed to exist, they would be Veiled both in and out of Selene form (if they have one). This practice of wearing a veil is primarily used by clergy within Altalunian culture who have fully devoted themselves to the Goddess, but in this case it would be used to express that this aspect is simply just a hollow shell without the thing she cherishes most.
Caprese, the one on the right, is the individual without a god aspect. An emotional mess. Every emotion feels amplified tenfold, much to the dismay of the Goddess. Probably spends most of her time crying, but she's madly in love with Perry. Perry is her other half and they literally complete one another.
My favorite couple: the god aspect and individual. This Hyperion (Perry) and Caprese. More about them in the alt text. 🌙🧵
