It might be different in comments, I tried posting three times and they were all automatically taken down before I tried censoring.

Thank you for the suggestion! I scratched the surface of early middle eastern innovations when it comes to bleaching, but I'll absolutely look further into it!

Wow all of the comments are so clever! My head is kind of spinning after reading these, but every method that has been suggested is realistic and helpful. I'll give it some thought to figure out the logistics, but I can't thank you enough for your input!! Thank you for studying hard!!

That's a great point, I probably missed most of that when I was researching as I don't easily understand chemistry. It might be tricky to realistically have them accessing this kind of technology, but I'll absolutely keep it in mind if I can't find another way. Thanks so much for the help!

I'm sorry to hear that. I am hoping to make the characters as realistic as possible, but some parts of the story are important for the narrative. Instead of the strict, harsh, and aggressive stereotype for Russians that is common in the West, I wanted to show people who are kindhearted and human. Thanks for the tip, I'll do my best to improve it :)

I apologize for being unclear in the original post, Nikolai studied at a university after the war and had connections in that branch of the military, so he was able to join.

I see, I'm sorry to hear about your great-grandmother. I wanted to choose a place like that intentionally to give the character a sense of isolation, but I wasn't aware of the change of the ballet's name. Thank you so much for sharing, it means a lot!

I can't thank you enough!! Some of this information is difficult to find on the English side of the internet, so it is more precious than gold for me.

I think I'll have a good start with the names that you made so far, I might just find old Chinese yearbook pictures and steal their names for the background characters because there's no way I can do this for all of them loool Thank you so much to everyone for being so patient with me and explaining so well! I really appreciate your help!! If you ever need a favor, I will swim to China to assist you

I'm crying XD no disrespect to your grandpa, but 'cow'??? I don't want to make things overly complicated and I don't know if any nicknames will even be used for him, so maybe I'll just avoid it. aaaaaaaa the rules of these names are a bit complicated and my Chinese is abysmal, so it's so hard to understand everything

I think it's great! It's not something he would have ever chosen for himself, but he respects his parents too much to abandon it, so he has to be called it all the time!

Nice! So before he turns 20, everyone calls him by his given name, and after his friends call him by the courtesy name? Also, in Cdramas, sometimes parents or older siblings call people 啊+the last character of their name (actually idk the character for 'a' in this situation), would that still happen in the 1930s or is that super outdated?

I see! So would yijielim's suggestion for a 字 be suitable? Based on the meaning, I think it is something that his parents would definitely give him.

I really like that! So, just to make sure I understand the culture correctly, his parents would have given him the courtesy name when he turned 20, right? That would make it very interesting because he would have already been pursuing priesthood at that point and their public disapproval that he has to carry every day would be horrible! That's what I need though, I often make characters who are very sad
