✶ velvet dusk transmission: october ii✶

The work continues, and the shrines are finding their shapes.

Scarlet Remembrance has grown beyond what I first imagined. The structure is settled now—six chapters tracing Millicent’s movement from affliction into release. The Prologue is complete. The arc is drafted: Origin, five chapters charting her passage, and an Epilogue that lingers in the aftermath. Throughout, three voices braid together—Codex for the record, Chronicle for the story, Ritual for the breath of it. Between each chapter, her interludes appear like echoes through the rot, guiding the descent.

The bones hold. What’s left is the skin—header artwork, final graphics, the closing frame. It’s close now.

Chronostasis, my shrine to Setsuna Meiou—Sailor Pluto—came together faster than expected. Three constellations: The Gate (duty and isolation), The Key (forbidden ties), The Garnet (devotion shaped by sacrifice). Its atmosphere sits differently from Scarlet Remembrance—quieter, more suspended. Where Millicent’s shrine blooms with decay, Pluto’s rests at the threshold of time. The structure is in place; it just needs its final polish and its face.

transmissionacross.space is live as well—a full shrine devoted to Interstellar, a film I’ve carried for years. It deserved its own domain, its own gravity well. The coming-soon page is already transmitting; the main shrine will be something larger than the character works, still shifting slowly into form.

And one more is taking shape in the dark: Afterimage Protocol, my shrine to Mima Kirigoe from Perfect Blue. The framework is mapped—how to honor her fracture, her recursion, the way identity splinters under gaze and carefully reassembles. Early still, but the architecture is there.

velvetdusk.net is live too, the threshold for all of this—a small collective where these works can take root. The hub is nearly ready: structure settled, design aligned, just waiting for final details like link buttons and cross-domain paths. It will open properly alongside Scarlet Remembrance, the first shrine to unfurl fully.

The pace is still deliberate. I’m letting each shrine arrive on its own time, one transmission at a time from a frequency I’ve been tuned to for years.

So excited for all of these! Sailor Pluto especially — I've had a WIP site for Uranus for ages, but have been struggling with filling in the details. Looking forward to seeing how you approach a similar subject and hoping it sheds inspiration, haha.

Also extremely excited for your Interstellar site!!! It's one of my favorite films, I can't wait to see how ou approach it.
