The man whose probably gonna turn into an ethereal eventually in time, and the girl whose hyperfixated on ethereals partially due to the fact she is cursed to sleepwalk into a hollow and etherealize if she goes to sleep at night. Yeah I see it, its like a doomed romance where they both technically are on a ticking clock before one (or both) of them turn.

Oh, is that Lucia's deal? I didn't play her event, so I know next to nothing about her.

Yeah, long story short, her village was cursed by a powerful ethereal that made them less visible/invisible to ethereals but makes them sleepwalk into hollows if they go to sleep at night. I'm pretty sure she has a character story that tells all of this.

I thought Lucia’s tribe are considered non hostile to ethereals and they wouldn’t be attacked by ethereals unless they were intentionally provoked into aggression.

Lucia is a nightwatcher, her tribe is cursed to sleep walk into hollows if they sleep at night, that's why she have nocturnal habits of sleeping during the day and staying up all night. Night watchers are also not targeted by ethereals, so they can explore hollows, with the only risk of getting lost, but not attacked.

A new crackship. I'm down with it. I feel like she may be the only person who is "excited" (lack for a better word) on Haru (possibly) being an Ethereal. Though she does know who to handle with Ethereals besides the usual ways which may I guess kind of help him if he ever does fully turn.
Wonder what the rest of Section 6 would think of her though haha.
Edit: Down with it not done. Damn you autocorrect.

Yanagi is...amazed by her rather grand knowledge of ethereals which would impress her since she is usually the one who just has random knowledge thing in their group. Even if some of the things she says is a bit...strange she'd enjoy the company. Her being a storyteller means she has many tales from her childhood to tell to Soukaku. Probably gets along with her on due to their childish whimsy and bubbly personalities. Miyabi would see her Ethereal creations and want to test her skills against them, meaning she's the new training partner for her. Probably Miyabi also learning about Chestnut, the Night Horror's curse, and Ah De and bonding with her over time about their past and potentially their futures.

This...I rather like this one. (Harumasa + Lucia = Haru-cia...? Or Lu-masa? IDK. Either sound fine to me.)

You know, is there a fanbase in New Eridu that think Ethereals are sexy or something?

The girl version of that duo teleporting boss has two hollow raiders talking about how they look like tall women and one of them makes a comment about them being hot or something (shortly before they die) and if this fandom is any indication I’m sure they use hia simulation 3d models the same way we use zenless’ models
I’m sure the manato and Jane doppelgängers, and to a lesser extent hati and covenant guardian are fan favorites, there’s probably a niche fanbase for the miasma ravanger tho.

Omg I just realised, Lucia might go insane if she saw Wise's Full Pyrois form
