wow this was 5 months ago and i never replied! fuck! well i will answer your question now and pretend no time has passed. the character featured in it (circleeye) is an alien in self-imposed exile from their own species' society. instead they live (and are politically active in) a human-dominated society where they do an even poorer job of fitting in (1)
their species is hyper-social in a way that humans are not, and more active at night, so they are chronically lonely in a way we can't really understand. but at the same time their decision to exile themselves comes from this love and attachment to this new world they're now living in. so i wanted to capture that bittersweet feeling. they love this world and see beauty in it but they will never fully belong (2)
the city they're watching is the nation capital and also where they live and work. the shadow in the sky is the gas giant that the habitable moon orbits! it is barely eclipsing the solar system's binary stars. i decided to leave it unclear if circleeye was watching the beginning of the eclipse, or the end
i'm really glad you like it!!
