[@HenningDieterichs]

Honestly, this is my favorite recording of the Prelude from Bach's Cello Suite No. 5. I'd love to hear the full suite from Nobuo Furukawa! I like the fast pace and the rough bow noises, it feels very immersive and emotional and sets a very dark tone. The sound is amazing! Just the beginning of the fugue could have started a little bit more piano.

[@OliviaHediger]

Hagi and Saya were supposed to mate, but then in a random turn of events Saya had to make Hagi a chevalier in order to save him. Therefore, they couldn't mate and have offspring. If Hagi was a chevalier of Diva, him and Saya could mate. Though, that was physically made impossible.

[@sabri3917]

But where exactly have you seen that Haji and Saya couldn't mate ? It's true that Saya and Haji can't have children together because a queen can only have children with the other queen chevaliers but I suppose they can still mate ? Did they mention at the time that it was impossible ? (sorry for my bad english)

[@imgonbastar114]

Sabrina hello, just passing by. I don’t recall anyone mentioning it’s impossible per se, but the overall theory with Diva becoming true (having children) just made it seem clear it’s the same case for Saya as they are both Queens and twin sisters on top of that. I also don’t remember Saya wanting children at any point like Diva, she just wanted to travel the world with Haji basically. To my observation and personal preference, it’s possible for the two (Saya & Haji) to mate, though, it took so long they finally kissed at the end. The only thing we can get close to calling an intimate moment for them. I was also certain Saya was only interested to end up with Haji despite some characters showing love/care for her. She could care for them or even love them back, but it’s never gonna be the same with the amount she gives to Haji. They’ve always been together and they always will! I love that. You didn’t ask for this, so feel free to disregard. However, if this could put your mind to ease, then you’re more than welcomed. Have a nice day, fellow blood + lover.

[@ellieg.9595]

@@sabri3917 queens can mate with their chevalier but its always a fruitless conquest. I'm pretty sure Solomon discussed it with one of his "brothers" (I forgot which one, I think it was maybe Amshel) and said that the reason Diva despised most of her chevaliers (despite being possessive over them) was because they couldn't give her children. I could be wrong because I haven't seen this show in years.
