Crossword only (printable PDF file), crossword with solution on the next page (printable PDF file)
This puzzle is about the original/Beta Blaseball and does not use any information about Prehistory, the Short Circuits or the Coronation Era.I do recommend using the Blaseball Wiki or other such resource on the Tigers - nothing here should be insanely obscure or "only 2020 Tigers remember", but I did have fun with it.
Thank you for giving me the chance to create this puzzle. <3

Nirvana in Fire - Lin Chen & Mei Changsu Cross Stitch Pattern

A gift for
silveredeye

Design Size: 70 x 60 stitches (Final result measures 10.5 cm x 10 cm)
Materials:
- 8 x 8 inch white 14-count Aida cloth
- 6 inch embroidery hoop (optional)
- DMC Stranded Cotton according to the color chart

Directions:
Find the center of the fabric, then work according to the pattern using two strands of cotton floss. This pattern is done entirely in crosses and half stitches; there are no backstitches.
Download the pattern and color chart as a pdf here.
Feel free to make any changes according to your own preferences, and if you stitch this pattern, I'd love to see it! I am marquisguyun most places except Discord.
I chose the character 陪, meaning 'to accompany,' from the quote 我答应过你要陪你走到最后一日 (I promised you that I would accompany you to the very end) from Episode 54 of Nirvana in Fire. The quote is from the scene where Lin Chen gives Mei Changsu the Bingxu pill, so it matches the elements in my design, but it is also a great summary of their relationship in general! It's not solely about the inevitable end, but the support and friendship along the journey.
My pattern was inspired by a couple of designs from A Cross Stitcher's Oriental Odyssey by Joan Elliot, which I was able to check out from my local library. The "Little Treasures" designs on pages 42-45 all featured a single character, nature elements of some kind, and a circular design, which I liked. The scale of the project was more or less determined by the minimum size I wanted 陪 to be in order to make the character look nice.

For
irusu, rated G, no content notes immediately come to mind
No matter what the world may see
A monster cruel, a brainwashed slave
I am striving to become a better me
The thoughts feel like a constant fee
Was it not enough, all that I gave?
No matter what the world may see
Unsteady like a ball on a too-small tee
Pushed about like a fish in a mighty wave
I am striving to become a better me
Perhaps they wonder, “What is he?”
I know I am a fighter brave
No matter what the world may see
I don’t know if I can be truly free
But I will not let my spirit cave
I am striving to become a better me
I’m sure someday that’s what I’ll be
A man whose self he managed to save
No matter what the world may see
I am striving to become a better me
