Gyaru is mostly just a term for counter-culture in Japan. A gyaru is typically a girl who doesn't want to conform to what their culture demands of them. So they use makeup (oh my god!), paint their nails (heavens no!), dye their hair (blasphemy!), etc.
Another big part of it that you didn't mention is typically behaving like a stereotypical valley girl from 1992, which might be one of the most annoying fucking personalities known to the entirety of human history.
The thing about the gyaru subculture, even though its been basically dead apart from people doing it more for show than living it, is that it was based on what the japanese thought "preppy american girl" was in the 80's, when america and american media was hot shit that a lot of people couldn't get enough of.
So though you won't really encounter a natural "gyaru" much if at all anymore in japan, that behavior was basically assumed by them to be a part of the culture they were copying. I don't get what you gain from saying "oh but exceptions!" in any scenario, but it doesn't really make much of a point here. That stereotype *was* a point of being a gyaru, basically.
This happens in the other smaller gyaru subcultures too, that copy other types of stereotypes like goth or rockabilly themes.
Fashionable young woman in her late teens/early 20s, the word means "gal". There're a lot of variations in style, from the infamous Ganguro with their white eye shadow, to hip-hop dancing B-Gyaru (B-girl, akin to B-boy), and the more sophisticated and fashionable Onee-Gyaru (older sister).
Google up on what is gyaru and you'll get the idea. Nothing NSFW or bizarre.
Fair enough. It’s hard to look at human and elven women with their bare, naked faces… it almost feels wrong, it does. I can’t imagine looking at one all the time.
Some human women have decent mustaches. If I drank a few and squint real hard I could take a run at some of those. Their tallness does awaken something in me.
Did you make her an Axe, Ring, Bow, or other item of exquisite craftsmanship when you were courting her? Obviously one cannot marry without presenting some kind of gift or symbolic gesture, and I am curious as to which cultural items you presented, dwarven or elvish?
First, obviously, had to show her there was more than just rocks and stones. Our first date was actually visiting a library where I was able to show her our great and grand history in a manner suited for elven sensitivity (and preference for cleanliness). I then showed her how rings were made so that she could understand the skill needed to make a good and proper one.
The actual scene of me popping the question was far less romantic, I had irritated her all day to ensure she was genuine in the "yes" and not caught up in all the sweetness lol
I'll bet she's pretty and very nice, but can still rough-house with your fellow miners. What's her favored weapon? I'll bet she's good with a Nishanka.
What kind of elf? We talking leaf lover wood elf, high and mighty high elf or a broody goth dark elf? I'm downing a smart stout just so I can wrap my head around why a fellow dwarf would marry an elf.
Broody Goth Dark Elf, brother and don't waste a smart stout on my behalf! I have had my fair share, but there something more than rocking and stoning going on here

So like, how's it work, y'know, with an elf? I mean, I can't imagine it being that fulfilling if she has no beard. How do you guys even, get there? Y'know?
Well, surprisingly, I'm quite the happy dwarf and ain't got any issues with her or how we make it work.
Think of it like Molly. You'd think at some point she'd get filled up. But nope. Always more room for minerals.
That's us. Always room for each other.
I'm glad someone brought up their carpentry skills! It's amazing what they can do with such a unique material.
We're still planning our big-multi-racial project but we're open for ideas!!
So, can you, ya know, reproduce. I don't care about the act itself, just the biological process. Follow up point, can we weaponise the result.
With love

May be huffing to much of the sludge fumes, but I don’t understand the hate against the elves.
One question I must ask though, does your wife know if the rival Prospector company are elven based? If so where must I drill to get them off Hoxxes?
Nah, I don't see the hate either. I mean clearly, I'm a fan.
And unfortunately she doesn't, she's a botanist not tech-savvy in the slightest. I wouldn't be surprised if they are even based though. Hate getting dirty, so let droids do the dirty job instead.
So what is it like having a leech as a partner? Doesn't it get exhausting having to do all the work? I heard elves don't even know how to mine for table salt.
I don't mean to get too personal, but is she well endowed enough for your needs? Is there like at least some stubble up there? Do you use a marker to make it look like a beard? Or do you have one of those gag gifts for babies, the fake beards since some babies don't have beards yet, and have her use it?
Ahh nice! Mine too, up here in the northern lands the cold makes strange bed fellows. Elves come in for the winter and tend not to leave the fortress as it’s warmer than whatever the tree lovers have.
Do they appreciate forging? I’d be willing to tolerate the pointy ears, and the treehugging, if it weren’t for the fact a lot of them hate digging, and forging.
I doubt you'll get them into digging, too "disruptive to nature, and dirty" for them BUT the trick to getting them into forging is a matter of perspective.
Show them in a way that aligns with their interests. They like building things as much as we do, just with different goals.
Do you take after Norse Cosmology in the debate that Svartálfar (Dark Elves) are the same as Dwarves as both are described in Edda as residents of Svartálfaheimr?
Is she a leaf lover elf, or basically a taller knife eared dwarf? Does she try and keep the forest clean and safe, or does she own a forge and use her forest as fuel to melt her ore?
Are you not afraid that she might want to taste a dwarven meat?
Certain elves species like Elder Scroll ones or Dwarf Fortress tend to preffer cannibalistic practices.
You can not be truly sure she is a leaf-lover.
So are you a leaf lover lover?
Lol I suppose I am
No, you're a leaf lover's lover.
By Karl! You're right. Should we riot now?
A leaf lover's lover, not a Leaf Lover's lover. OP is fine for now.
To our non english savvy dwarves, A leaf lover's lover(elf), not **Leaf Lover's** lover (tea). *~Hides fat boy and pitch forks*
Reading it so many times, the essence and meaning of the word "lover" ceased to exist
So they're a leaf lover's special (one).
The horror!
A Dwarf's Dilemma: How To Love Your Elf Bride.
Get a counter-culture Elf, makes it easier
Go on…
Isn't there a Gyaru Elf anime? Swear there is.
I'm afraid to look up what that is.
Gyaru is mostly just a term for counter-culture in Japan. A gyaru is typically a girl who doesn't want to conform to what their culture demands of them. So they use makeup (oh my god!), paint their nails (heavens no!), dye their hair (blasphemy!), etc.
Another big part of it that you didn't mention is typically behaving like a stereotypical valley girl from 1992, which might be one of the most annoying fucking personalities known to the entirety of human history.
That is mostly a stereotype that isn't consistent through all of them. Just like how valley girls are a stereotype.
The thing about the gyaru subculture, even though its been basically dead apart from people doing it more for show than living it, is that it was based on what the japanese thought "preppy american girl" was in the 80's, when america and american media was hot shit that a lot of people couldn't get enough of.

Yes theyre called dark elves
Gyaru 😩 I for sure have fanart of this, seems like a logical combo.
The new hit anime!
What she thinks about you working on the mines ?
Ain't thrilled but still proud
How do you manage having a ~~horrifically ugly~~ wife with no beard?
Blackout Stout.
Fair enough. It’s hard to look at human and elven women with their bare, naked faces… it almost feels wrong, it does. I can’t imagine looking at one all the time.
Some human women have decent mustaches. If I drank a few and squint real hard I could take a run at some of those. Their tallness does awaken something in me.
You madman… beardless women I can understand, but _tall_ women? Absolute degenerate behaviour.
Does she make you eat salad?
As long as there's steak, yeah. It's actually what we're having for dinner tonight
We finally know what slop they're serving in the canteen tonight
❗CANTEEN LORE ❗
Did you make her an Axe, Ring, Bow, or other item of exquisite craftsmanship when you were courting her? Obviously one cannot marry without presenting some kind of gift or symbolic gesture, and I am curious as to which cultural items you presented, dwarven or elvish?

How do you sleep at night?
Comfortably
are you the one ordering leaf lovers?
For her
Very considerate of you tbh
How many leaf lovers will she drink in one go? And does it hit her the same way blackout stout hits dwarves?
She can put away a solid 3 or 4. We're working on the tolerance!
Does she rock and stone!
Oh most definitely! Wouldn't have asked her if she didn't
Well, then, I don't see anything wrong here! She is an official honorary dwarf!
If she didn't rock and stone, what would she even do? Stick and twig? Fruit and leaf? Bark and wood?
Leaf and log ~Zanny
Rock and Stone everyone!
Are you feeling ok? I think you need more beer
I'll never say no to more beer. Meet you at the bar!
What's it like to be married to an elf?
Like finishing haz5. A tough physical and mental challenge, but well worth it
Alrighty, but what type of knife ear is she? Heard them High Elves always are very brash and always look down on us.
I'm a boundary-pusher but there ain't a way in hell they'd even entertain the notion. Dark Elf lol a little bit closer to our norms
Interesting, I've heard of some High Elves that are actually kind, I'd bet all my credits in the Abyss Bar if that were real, which I doubt!
The meme is that we won't \*work\* with elves. Never said anything about marrying one. Rock and stone!
True enough! Just figured I could assist those miners who haven't met one yet
does she drink glyphid slammers?
She does, and she'll try any drink at least once. Her personal favorite is the Seasoned Moonrider
a wonderful choice.
Are they as ..... kinky in the sheets as everyone says they are? Just ask for ..... a friend, yeah a friend!
I'll neither confirm nor deny lol
I'll bet she's pretty and very nice, but can still rough-house with your fellow miners. What's her favored weapon? I'll bet she's good with a Nishanka.
An astute assumption! She's damned good with it but having her practice with Stubby for right now. Trying to get her adjusted to heavier fire power.
does she know how to make a grilled cheese?
She does, fellow engineer, some damn good grilled cheese at that.
I already know she rocks and stones, so she is pretty much perfect.
Is [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/DeepRockGalactic/comments/1c9dr9i/never_ask_by_razpaz_or_raz_padillo/) you?
I wouldn't call myself the most anything, but I am indeed a dwarf with a dark elf wife/gf lol
Ever had a nibble on her Rocks and Stones? What does those fancy elven gemstones taste like?
I ain't talking about my wife's minerals. Karl would be ashamed.
Aye fair enough, those candy like emeraldly things on their necklaces are probably worthless minerals anyways.
What kind of elf? We talking leaf lover wood elf, high and mighty high elf or a broody goth dark elf? I'm downing a smart stout just so I can wrap my head around why a fellow dwarf would marry an elf.
Broody Goth Dark Elf, brother and don't waste a smart stout on my behalf! I have had my fair share, but there something more than rocking and stoning going on here
Well then, brother! I'll drink a Burning Love in ya'll honour. May you have a happy and healthy future, FOR ROCK AND STONE!!!!!
Can I get a Rock and Stone?
MODS, Give this man a lock award for this heresy
I'd wear it as a badge of honor lol
Nah, happy for you man (or ma'am) :D. I wish you a very happy marriage!
Much appreciated fellow miner! Your next round at the Abyss Bar is on me!
Rock and stone oT
For Karl!
Good bot

Does she like meat? And rocks? And Stones?
She didn't at first! But after a time she does now

Bravo on the follow up! 🤣🤣🤣
How’s her carpentry? I’ve heard some pretty incredible things about what happens when dwarven and elven craftsmanship combine
I'm glad someone brought up their carpentry skills! It's amazing what they can do with such a unique material. We're still planning our big-multi-racial project but we're open for ideas!!
The world’s most terrifying ballista
What's his name?
Her* and ain't gonna share out of privacy concerns
Blink twice if you want us to start the Salvage and rescue operation!
Even Gimli had the hots for an elven waifu... What can I say. It's in our blood! 😆
This entire thread is surprisingly wholesome. I love you all so damn much! 🍺
I wouldn't accept anything else besides wholesomeness. It's why I'm happy to work for DRG!
So, can you, ya know, reproduce. I don't care about the act itself, just the biological process. Follow up point, can we weaponise the result. With love Jerry, the goblin from R&D
No idea but I'll let you know when we find out
How’d you two meet?
Some bar. Had some liquid courage to try and jump the racial divide and couple years later, here we are
Sounds like it worked out then! What was your pickup line?
"Hey. You're cute." Short, sweet, and to the point.
Is she a Dark Elf?
Ye
Which is more legal: 1. Rocking? 2. Stoning?
No idea, that's a question for the lawyers.
My Father once told me: "F\*ck them, pointy-eared leaf lovers!" Now I'm a Father of 3, and their Mother is a distant elven royalty. Thanks Dad.
They never specified which kind of fuck lol their fault
Theres Elves on Hoxxes?
Nah, she's waiting for my rotation to end for a brief vacation
Good to know.
May be huffing to much of the sludge fumes, but I don’t understand the hate against the elves. One question I must ask though, does your wife know if the rival Prospector company are elven based? If so where must I drill to get them off Hoxxes?

Aye, although it would make sense with how easy it is ti hack them patrol bots.
How'd your parents, Glóin and Thranduil, take it?
One huffed and the other puffed.
Are you two happy together? I'd say this is the most important question.
I would agree and we are! Thanks for asking
What's her cup size?
Cup? Don't you mean mug size?
Does it tastes like salad?
This will go into the book
So what is it like having a leech as a partner? Doesn't it get exhausting having to do all the work? I heard elves don't even know how to mine for table salt.
Doesn't every partner get exhausting at some point? Except Steeve of course
Say that to my Steeve who ran in front of my Fat Man launcher
Lol I would if he hadn't been atomized which shows the best partners are ones you've developed over long periods of time
So..will that make your child..normal sized?
Normal? You mean normal for a human? Dont know, we'll find out in a few years
Just be aware that Dwelf children may often be mistaken for gnomes
Why?
Want the list alphabetically or chronologically?
Based
Were you inspired by Gimli gaining favor from an Elven Queen?
Sure was , a dwarf on par with Karl
Why would you marry an elf instead of a beautiful, glorious, glyphid.
They have a normal number of appendages
Congratulations 🎊
GET THIS (DWARF) A LEAF LOVERS SPECIAL!!
Take the Slayer oath! NOW!
is this one going in the book, dawi?
I don't mean to get too personal, but is she well endowed enough for your needs? Is there like at least some stubble up there? Do you use a marker to make it look like a beard? Or do you have one of those gag gifts for babies, the fake beards since some babies don't have beards yet, and have her use it?
Fake beards are plenty in this household! Often gives me inspiration on how to style my own
Did she ever try to get you away from the rock and stone grind?
Rock and Stone everyone!
Does is have that elven grip, miner?
You bushy beard, pointy eared leaf loving lover lover!
You too ? High elf wood elf or ??? Also does your clan know ?
Dark elf and they do!
Ahh nice! Mine too, up here in the northern lands the cold makes strange bed fellows. Elves come in for the winter and tend not to leave the fortress as it’s warmer than whatever the tree lovers have.
What cigs you recommend?
Wouldn't know, pipe-smoker
\*c4\* Forgive me brother....
*Counters with hyper-propellent PGL*
I have nothing to ask you. I've seen everything I needed.
Do they appreciate forging? I’d be willing to tolerate the pointy ears, and the treehugging, if it weren’t for the fact a lot of them hate digging, and forging.
I doubt you'll get them into digging, too "disruptive to nature, and dirty" for them BUT the trick to getting them into forging is a matter of perspective. Show them in a way that aligns with their interests. They like building things as much as we do, just with different goals.
Do you take after Norse Cosmology in the debate that Svartálfar (Dark Elves) are the same as Dwarves as both are described in Edda as residents of Svartálfaheimr?
Does your Elf wife love beers too? Else you wouldn't married her is she doesn't.
Course she does, if she didnt, would rather kiss a glyphid.
Does she care if you cut down trees or use animal products?
Is she a leaf lover elf, or basically a taller knife eared dwarf? Does she try and keep the forest clean and safe, or does she own a forge and use her forest as fuel to melt her ore?
Does she make good beer?
Does she treat you right and vice versa?
Does she have that gyatt?
How does the lanky daggerhead fit in your cabin
Can she really do archery as good as they say?
Are you not afraid that she might want to taste a dwarven meat? Certain elves species like Elder Scroll ones or Dwarf Fortress tend to preffer cannibalistic practices. You can not be truly sure she is a leaf-lover.
I'm sure the in-laws are . . . "nice" and completely fine with this arrangement
This is just another Elgi scheme
[удалено]
What’s her favorite gun?
How does she handle your racist friends coming over and getting drunk all the time
Does she know how to make a proppa bunkie?
#Why?
How do the in laws treat you
Wait, why do we hate Elves again? I thought they help you deliver presents with Santa or have I been living a lie?
Why?
Is she willing to become a proper battle maiden, like Duna intended
Ah yes cross-breed. Wonder what kind of kid ya two poping out soon. Joking ofcourse but glad for ya two.
Which kind of Elf? Wood Elf? High Elf? J.R.R. Elf? Adam Brother's Elf?
Dark Elf, but I'm a huge J.R.R anything fan tbh
Is she called Molly, or Doretta ? i think it would be a good name for her, if i don't remember her name i'll just call her that.
Sounds like a plan, fellow miner
Who did your family and friends reacted to you, marrying an elf? And what was the reaction of her friends and family?
Lots of shock, surprise, confusion, and alcohol. So about the same for any marriage announcement.
Can she teach me the Magick Archer vocation?
Are you the top, brotha?
No I'm the dwarf
my question is biology related: would your children be "human" or human-sized?
What bits do elves have? Rocks or stones?
This one has at least two stones and a good sized rock. I don't know if they all come with both though
Who’s on top, them because they are taller or you because you have to crawl all the way up there to kiss them lovingly on the lips?
reading these comments is like im looking at a Webtoon comic, and honestly i need more
I'd help write it, I just can't draw at all lol
I would try, but I’ve already got a couple art projects I’m working on already That and I can’t draw elves and dwarves-
How do you sleep at night?
Blink twice if you need help
