[b]Description:[/b] We're halfway through the challenge, but we're just scratching the surface on possible Lunar New Year themes. Today you get to self-select from several dozen possible combinations!
Rat, ox (or water buffalo), tiger, rabbit (or cat), dragon, snake, horse, sheep/goat, monkey, rooster, dog, pig: the animals of the Eastern Zodiac.

Please remember to *not* reveal your real life personal combination for privacy and safety reasons.

[size=4]aly has realized we have a header for this so it's Time for The Analysis (lmao)
Today we're getting two broad categories - breeds and color schemes. In general, we all agreed that main characteristics of Lion Dance creatures are big eyes, fluffy/shaggy/fringed bodies, and square lion/dog-like heads! There were some more abstract interpretations of the theme, and some folks who went for traditional Dragon Dances instead, but predominantly the theme resulted in Big 'Ol Huge Eyed Square Creature.
For scrying, we saw (in descending order) Obelisks (6) and Gaolers (4) which are already very fluffy lion/dog - y creatures, followed up by 2 Aethers, and 1 each of Imperial, Spiral, and Auraboa. Warm tones (mostly red/gold) were the clear favorite, with 10 in that range compared to only 2 exclusively cool-toned scries, and 3 that mixed colors evenly or went for a rainbow effect.
In the dressing room, which is of course limited by actual dragons in lair, we saw 5 Obelisks, 3 Imperials, 2 Ridgebacks, and 1 each of Skydancer, Tundra, and Bogsneak (though we couldn't actually see the Bogsneak!). Warm tones still dominated though at less of a lead - 6 fully warm outfits, 5 mixed or rainbow, and again 2 cool tones - from the same folks as the cool-toned scries. Every single outfit used some sort of mask apparel or one of Marva's eyes - often both![/size]

Vosmikot's outfit is especially impressive because the dragon is completely hidden under a recognizable fabric silhouette - which is exactly what happens with Lion Dance performers! the limitation of being unable to go for the obvious (and appropriate) choice forced some excellent... metaphor? maybe not a metaphor. anyway, even on an Obelisk it would be a great outfit for its shagginess, color, and use of pattern, and the fact that it's a genuine quadruped with no wings is just the decorative lanterns on top! cannot express enough how delightful this is even if it wasn't explicitly intended.

[b]Entry Description:[/b] quicksilver - metal horse. when i saw orca alloy i thought it looked like mercury, alternately titled quicksilver, and horses are fast. in all honesty i came up with the idea of a metal horse first, and only then realized adding a mercury theme would fit. the blue is not because it's linked to water, but rather, life. this is because of all that hullaballoo about mercury being the elixir of life.
