Gilgamesh (Alter Ego)'s Life in Chaldea Headcanons
For fun, I thought 'why not write some headcanons for myself this time?' and because the Alter Ego Gilgamesh concept is one that I find to be pretty amusing, I thought it'd be fun to write about him in more detail.
Note: This Gilgamesh is 'not quite' Gilgamesh, in the sense that his entire essence and personality is a complete inversion of what he should be. This Alter Ego still boasts ridiculously high charm, and watches over humanity- however he completely lacks the highly independent and indomitable spirit that the original Gilgamesh boasts, often acting like a powerless pawn in a game of chess.
He may act much politer on the surface, but inside he's burning with a resentment at the fate handed to him; in a way that the other Gils would likely abhor.
In other words, this character is akin to a jester wearing the mask of a king (he shouldn't exist). Please enjoy! ~
ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ-ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ-✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧・゚✰✧・゚: *✧・゚:*✧ ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ-ೄྀ-ೄྀ
✦ When he was first summoned to Chaldea, long golden robes glimmering like the many stars in the night sky; the Chaldea Masters' jaws plummeted to the ground, eyes wide with surprise.
✦ Gone was that pernicious sneer, those piercing eyes and his habit of crossing his arms together tightly enough to form an emotional barrier between him and everybody else. This Gilgamesh was strange, with his disarmingly friendly smile and extended arms; almost as if he was inviting them to join him.
✦ Something was not quite right here...
✦ "You can refer to me as Gilgamesh, the Wedge of the Heavens. I am honored to make your acquaintance on such a fine eve. I look forward to your patronage from henceforth, as we traverse the seas of war together!" Although his manner of speech was every bit as archaic as his contemporaries, his insistence on becoming equals with the master was a massive shock to their systems.
✦ "Guda...this Gilgamesh feels strange...what should we do?!" Ritsuka and Guda quickly hatch a plan to give him the benefit of the doubt, showcasing their gratitude for his arrival. However, what terrifies them is when Gilgamesh takes both of their hands within his own- golden bracelets audibly jangling as he softly shakes their hands, as if he's actually really happy to be in their service.
✦ As they watch him examine the summoning portal, red eyes gleaming with excitement as he gushes over the durability of such a design; they remain frozen, unable to digest the sight lying before them. He was meant to be more guarded, more intimidating!
✦ "Why do you stand still, as if there's a massive beast lurking nearby? I wish to be guided amongst the premises. Lend your assistance, if you so please." With an utterly unassuming smile on his face, he politely asks for them to guide them around. "Is there something on my face? Do tell me at once."
✦ Deciding to finally bite the bullet (despite Ritsuka and Mash's desperate signs for her to stop just in case this Gilgamesh would also be prone to outbursts), Guda takes the plunge by boldly asking, "Gilgamesh, are you okay with becoming our servant? Or do you want us to serve you? What kind of relationship are you looking for here?" The others typically tended to regard the masters as their vassals, but were also willing to help out and serve them if it coincided with their interests, as well as the needs of humanity.
✦ Would he be the same? Or entirely different? Nothing prepared them for the answer that escaped his mouth.
✦ "Your struggles resonate with my own, Masters of Chaldea. You are my equals, and I wish to refer to you as such. There is a great deal we share in common. Now, shall we depart?" Mash almost faints to the ground, as the other two can only blink back, dumbfounded by such a statement. "What is the fuss? We shan't tarry any longer."
✦ "E-err, sure..." As they guide him amongst the long corridors, introducing him to all of the most essential facets of Chaldea- as he displayed great interest; even going as far to OPENLY COMPLIMENT them-one thought remained supreme within their minds.
✦ "WHO THE HELL REPLACED GILGAMESH WITH THIS FAIRY TALE-ESQUE KING?!!!" Without his trademark insults, sarcastic wit, and overinflated superiority complex; this newly summoned servant felt almost underserving of carrying a name as heavy as Gilgamesh's own.
Daily Life
✦ One thing he shares in common with Caster Gilgamesh is a workaholic nature, however the way in which he utilises it is quite different.
✦ He's often seen helping out around Chaldea for a variety of things in order to ensure that the premises are okay, and that everyone is thriving. Assisting with odd jobs and menial tasks that the other Gilgamesh would deem as 'beneath the role of a king', he's become quite the reliable handyman (which definitely raises some eyebrows amongst those who are already accustomed to his original selves).
✦ However, unlike how the other Gilgamesh are more than willing to share their wisdom via various enlightening titbits of advice, this Gilgamesh often darts around the topic; confusing those who seek his guidance with riddles and indirect statements- all whilst wearing an incredibly tight smile.
✦ Sometimes, he even refuses to offer his own insight into certain situations, simply stating "If what you deem to be true is real, then so it shall be. Wield your own judgment to craft a path on your lonesome!" As one expected to provide guidance and support with such things, it is quite distressing how Alter Ego prefers to withdraw from the role of a mentor- making him quite the mystery.
Tumblr media
(^Alter Ego when consulted for advice smiles much like that cat)
✦ You may also catch him reading masses of books at the library on a vast range of different topics. If you ask him why, he may respond along the lines of, "Despite possessing such a wealth of knowledge, I still feel the strings at my back; tying me to an inescapable fate. At least my mind can wander freely within the realm of books." If you try to pry any deeper into the manner, he is likely to silence you with a perniciously beautiful smile; smoothly transitioning back into the role of a fairy tale king.
✦ One thing he LOVES to do is explore new areas, marveling at the sights and sounds that he sees. He's always up to try new things and get stuck right in, making him a really fun person to hang out with (until you start trying to pry his deeper thoughts and feelings out of that stone-cold smile of his.)
✦ Overall, although he still loves a show like the other Gils; and tends to remain in the centre of attention, it's for entirely different reasons than what is expected. Though he is equally as flamboyant, it is as if a major piece of his personality is missing as a result of him being such a mysterious character!
Battle
✦ He loves to sparkle just as much as the others, and is every bit as majestic in battle. But the scariest thing is how polite his words are in battle! It's almost as if this Gilgamesh's vocabulary was replaced by FGO's Arthur Pendragon or something equally as terrifying as that.
✦ However, there is also a certain rage that bubbles within his attacks, pulverising all that lies before him. Unlike Archer, who has time to posture arrogantly before his foes, playing around with them- Alter Ego attacks them without even the slightest warning, aiming to finish things as soon as possible?!!!
✦ He often saves his gate and precious chains of heaven for only the deadliest of battles, tending to usually fight with his axe...and his FISTS?!
✦ "If it gets the job done, then I'll resort to any means necessary. Whether or not it is beneath one of my station to use such blunt force is none of my concern." It's almost blood-chilling how little pride there is in his words, almost as if he's resigned himself to something entirely beyond his control.
✦ There is a crazed unpredictability to his attacks, lashing out from all directions. Without all the hurrah from his usual infamous ego, he is impossible to read in battle! Like an unstoppable force, he hacks everything into pieces; vermillion eyes gleaming with bloodlust.
✦ Although he claims he's merely doing his job, this Gilgamesh is every bit of a battle maniac as the others- maybe even more so, as he fully relishes in the joy of being able to do whatever he wishes on the battlefield.
✦ He'll listen to orders, but it's unknown what cause he's fighting for. Is it to ensure the future of humanity? To unite under his masters' banners? For fun?
With those cold eyes, and empty smile...it's hard to tell.
Relationships
✦ Alter Ego is very popular with the servants and staff in Chaldea! He's kind, reliable, and helpful. Despite that, some tend to avoid him; claiming that there's something 'strange' lurking beneath the surface of his character...
✦ The other Gilgamesh all HATE his guts, threatening to kill him whenever they as much as lay their eyes upon him!
✦ Seeing straight to the heart of his existence with his omniscience, Ko-Gil refuses to even acknowledge him as a 'Gilgamesh'. "It's a shame. Although you seem to be much nicer than that Goldie, you're not meant to be here, are you? If I'm honest, I wouldn't want to grow up to be like you, either..."
✦ Archer Gilgamesh views him with utter abhorrence, glaring at Alter Ego as if he is the scum of the earth. "Hoh...so those pitiful beings were finally able to grant their repulsive desires within your incantation. How utterly revolting, to have to share the same name with such a fake. That rotten smile of yours bears naught but an emporium of curses."
✦ Caster refuses to even look at him, for it pains him to even register the possibility of such a Gilgamesh existing. "By lamenting your fate and resigning yourself to such an inevitability...you go against the very grain that makes us who we are. Where's that spirit, that indomitable will? Humanity cannot prosper under a resolve as paltry as yours."
✦ In their eyes, Alter Ego is the force that could bring Chaldea to ruins. Aware of that, all Alter Ego feels is an immense feeling of dread and regret when amongst his fellow Gilgamesh peers; unable to face them. "My existence is a denial of their efforts, of the very core of their being. It is no wonder that they hate me so." Any efforts to uncover what he means by this will likely be thwarted by him changing the topic onto something more light-hearted, as he reverts back to his regular charming shell again.
✦ Enkidu is at a loss for words around Alter Ego, feeling a deep sense of sorrow and empathy for them. "They're a familiar presence...yet something inside of them is broken, shattered apart...as if it's become something else altogether. Although I said that I'm incapable of holding feelings, my chest feels so tight..."
✦ Alter Ego treasures Enkidu very deeply as well, however his reaction is eerily cryptic. "The strings of fate...have now finally been relinquished. Enkidu, I'm glad...I'm truly glad." Whatever he means by that is truly a mystery.
✦ Ishtar has no interest in him whatsoever, dubbing him as 'the boring one'. There's no fun in bantering with such a sweet talker! The way in which he politely regards her as a stranger really gets on her nerves. he's doing that on purpose
✦ Ereshkigal is monumentally confused by his presence. "W-what?! That's King Gilgamesh? But, his soul...I haven't encountered a soul like that before- and I've seen many. Are you really sure that he's even Gilgamesh in the first place?!"
✦ Although he recognises all of the servants and characters that the other Gilgamesh met, due to sharing fragments of their memories as servants; he feels no particular way towards them. "Although their faces pierce my mind, I have yet to make their acquaintance as of yet. How amusing." He is interested in meeting them though.
✦ Whenever he hears of this 'Hakuno' that left such a deep imprint within Gilgamesh's heart; he often wonders to himself what they were like. And he's also very curious about the time Gilgamesh and Kirei shared in Fuyuki, but as his memories of those existences are only tiny fragments; he has yet to understand how he should relate to them. It's really sad, but as he's not meant to exist; this Gilgamesh hasn't got bonds as strong as his other selves as of yet.
✦ However, his reaction towards any form of Artoria/ Arthur is oddly apologetic?! "I have no idea what that pompous lout was thinking. I apologise for his uncouth actions."
✦ In regards to the FGO masters, he is very respectful towards them; cherishing them as his equals. Although he tends to avoid supporting others with their worries, he'll gladly lend assistance to them. "As I previously stated, your existences are much like my very own. Just like me, you were forced to bear a weight great enough to destroy every fiber of your being; and yet you still stand. I am glad to have met you, Master." He is very affectionate towards them, yet refuses to let them into his heart....
✦ I'm sure he'll make friends with the other servants eventually, especially with those going through similar situations as him (mainly those who struggle with their existences and sense of meaning. Like the Avenger Servants!!!)
His Hidden Side
✦ Behind that princely smile and charming exterior lies a soul blistering with rage and fury; despising his existence and the role he was forced to play.
✦ Unlike the other Gilgamesh who were able to break free from the hold of the gods to watch over humanity in their OWN way; this Gilgamesh was played like a puppet, worn down until he expired from the world- unable to break free from his fate.
✦ That's why he shouldn't exist. A Gilgamesh that doesn't rule by his own standards cannot be defined as Gilgamesh. It's why the other Gils refuse to even classify him as one of them, viewing him with disdain.
✦ For who is a king, if he has no will to call of his own? Nothing more than an empty shell, masqueraded deceitfully before the people.
✦ For this reason, he despises humanity as well; which completely juxtaposes his nature. Trapped between his duty of serving them, fulfilling the will of the gods; and his desire to abandon his role altogether, he is a walking contradiction.
✦ As the Masters start to witness this encroaching despair, the madness and rage burning beneath those callous eyes; as he smiles brightly, still fulfilling the role of the 'good boy Gilgamesh' from his childhood-who abided to the gods' every whims and desire-they take it upon themselves to confront him, once and for all.
✦ He's in Chaldea now. He should be free from the chains of the past. He doesn't have to pretend to be somebody he's not anymore. He should be true to himself!
✦ But when they broach this topic to him, pleading for him to move forwards and finally carve an existence for himself instead of being this 'perfect do-gooder prince type', Alter Ego's next words are blood-curdling.
✦ "If that's so, Masters, would you run away? Turn on your heels and abandon fighting on behalf of those masses of mongrels that squirm desperately on the ground; like hopeless beings that cannot be watered unless one takes the helm to care for them? Would you be willing to abandon those pitiful masses to live true to yourself?" Eyes as cool as glaciers, Alter Ego's cruel words send shivers running down their backs.
✦ "T-that's not right, Alter Ego...I would make sure to live for both my sake and for the sake of others as well! Besides, humans aren't as pitiful as you say they are!" As they countered his argument, they realised something important.
He had finally used it. The word mongrel. But the way in which the words coolly passed through his lips, as if humans were beyond saving; as if he didn't even consider them- was so unlike any other Gilgamesh that the Masters could hardly believe his words.
✦ "You'd like to believe that is the case. But with every singularity, disturbance and lostbelt you close; the more the will of humanity will continue to supersede your very own, until nothing of you will remain." Eyes brimming with hatred, the bitterness lingering within Alter Ego's heart finally rises above the surface. "Don't be a hypocrite. Although you are of an equal stature to me, it seems you still refuse to pay heed to your own surroundings."
✦ "What do you...what exactly are you trying to say here?!" Despite the other Gilgamesh being conceited, overbearing rulers; they knew when to put humanity first, and even had soft sides to them that showcased a tender love for others. But Alter Ego...despite wearing a mask of tender love and care, his very core was turning out to be a mangled, twisted lump of wrath. They had known it was too good to be true.
✦ "If I was to live true to myself, then I'd wish to watch the world burn to smithereens, absolving me of all my duties. I think it'd be much more beneficial for me to keep my mask on instead, don't you think?"
It was then that everything became abundantly clearer.
This servant was not Gilgamesh, not in the slightest.
He was an alternate possibility that should've ceased to existed.
Chaldea had accidentally loosed a hellion amongst its midsts.
THE END
(this is really long! also this alter ego feels kind of uncomfortable XD)
[Extra: I'm not sure of a design for him yet, but I was thinking of him having long golden sleeves, his boobs out (true Gil style), a long red skirt thing like his archer self and golden armor bottom half and arms and neck full of jewelry as well as a circlet on his head.]

Can’t stop thinking about how you drew the crocs bro at least put them in sports mode their heels are hanging out 😭😭😭😭😭😭 how can you live this way with exposed heels.. what if someone steps on the back and you come into contact with horrible shoe disease on your heel 😨😨😨😨 rip but I cannot condone this have a beautiful day but I hope you never come into contact with crocs ever again 👍😔☹️
I'll let you know that crocs are the ultimate business shoe.
Sport mode? Biggest red flag. If I was interviewing someone, and they showed up with their crocs secured, I would immediately ask myself: what is this person running from? Potential work challenges? Responsibilities? Taking accountability? Are they ready to jump ship when things become difficult?
Au contraire! If the crocs are relaxed, it tells me I'm standing before a confident, secure individual. They don't need to rush anywhere. They trust their footing. Additionally, it shows they trust our company's hygiene, so much that they're allowing their naked heel to come into contact with our space. It is a symbol of mutual faith.
I'm afraid you cannot condone what is cold, factual truth. You may only accept it.
Signed, a platform croc owner

As a fellow black girl how do you think the family might warm up to JJK Gojo, Geto, Toji and Nanami at a family gathering 💐🥺
Introductions
𐙚 - JJK men x Black!fem
𐙚 - Gojo, Geto, Toji, Nanami
𐙚 - cw: none, wouldn't call it fluff, but just a casual introduction of your bf your family.
𐙚 - l've got you anon ;) also l started rewatching JJK again for some reason and l think l'm slowly getting back the writing vibe, turns out l just need to be inspired.
Tumblr media
Satoru Gojo
Tumblr media
Gojo pulls up to the BBQ looking like he just stepped off a fashion runway—definitely doing the most. Your cousins are already whispering, “Who is that seriously hot guy?” as he steps out of the car. “Babe, relax,” you whisper, trying to tone down his dramatic entrance. But he’s already throwing on his designer shades, flashing his megawatt smile. The second he walks into the backyard, the aunties are all over him. “Ooooh, you brought a tall one! What’s your name, baby?”
“Gojo Satoru, at your service,” he says with a little bow, and they’re giggling like schoolgirls. His effortlessly charming.
Gojo’s got no chill, immediately challenging your uncles to a game of spades like he’s been here before. His already fitting in and they like him no less. “You sure you can handle this, pretty boy?”they tease, but he’s already shuffling the cards like a pro, winking at you from across the table. The nerve of him, eager to get all the attention.
When the food comes out, Gojo’s piling his plate with everything. He insists on sharing a plate with you - taking any opportunity to feed you infront of your family. Gojo simply loves it when he can get all cute with you in public. Your younger cousins are already head over heels for him and your already facing competition. They even fight to sit next to him on the table..lol
Your mom, watching this from the porch, shakes her head with a smile. “I like him,” she says. However, your dad thinks his a goofball and he requires some solid evidence to prove his worthy of you.
𐙚 ~ 𐙚
Suguru Geto
Tumblr media
Geto shows up with a relaxed vibe, wearing a simple but stylish outfit—like a subtle bad boy but presentable. Immediately, his hair and smile becomes the highlight of the BBQ. Like his this typical blend between a bad boy outlook with a good boy personality ~ cough cough. The deal is his sweet and effortlessly win everyone over.
Your aunties give him the once-over as soon as he walks in. “Mmm, look at that hair! Can I touch it?” one of them asks, reaching out before you can warn him. He chuckles, letting them fluff his long, silky hair, and somehow he’s already their favorite. His just so gorgeous everyone thinks.
The real moment comes when he spots the domino table. Your dad gives him a skeptical look. “You play?”. Your dad has a thing for intimidating any guy you've brought till now, it's his way of asserting dominance and pushing away any guy not good enough to take his daughter.
Geto's ever calm and nods, taking a seat. “Let’s just say I have some experience.” Ten minutes later, your dad is hollering as Geto slams down the winning domino. “That boy's good! I need him on my team next time.” And that's how he won your dad over, by beating him at his own game.
By the end of it, he’s chilling with your mother and grandma on the porch, getting to know all your childhood mischiefs and bad girl phases to which you've never told him. They're ’s already asking him to come back next Sunday for dinner.
𐙚 ~ 𐙚
Toji Fushiguro
Tumblr media
Toji walks in looking like the body builder he is —black tank top hugging his muscular body and casual sweat pants - like you literally had to argue with his grown ass this morning on his choice of dressing. Your family gives him the side-eye at first, especially when he grabs a beer from the cooler like he owns the place. But that one alpha aunt who thinks she owns the party effortlessly strikes up a conversation with him immediately falling for him.
But Toji’s got that rough charm that wins people over, and it doesn’t take long for him to start bonding with your cousins over a game of darts. Your cocky uncle then yells, “Bet you can’t beat me, big man!”
Toji just smirks. “Bet.”
Next thing you know, your uncles are losing their minds as Toji lands three perfect shots in a row. Your 'married' aunts for goodness sake act like highschool girls cheering for a heart-throb forgetting all essence of their marital status as they cheer Toji.
He’s in his element now, flipping burgers on the grill and cracking jokes with the old heads. They way the apron hugs his body , you feel as if your merchandise is for all to see and enjoy, sparking up a huge wave of jealousy in you. Toji occasionally flexes just to make the females swoon. His cock and loves the attention. His the party's muscle man.
The real test comes when your auntie pulls out her famous potato salad - a food competition. “I don’t know if you’re ready for this, sweetheart.”
Toji takes a bite and nods seriously. “Yeah, that’s good. But you ain’t ready for my mac and cheese.”
“Boy, you can cook?” she asks, and he just gives a lazy grin accepting her defeat but also getting the recipe from your hunk of a man. You'll seriously scold him for this later on.
By the end of the night, everyone is begging him to come to the next cookout, with your dad finally shaking his hand in acknowledgement of him being worthy to look after his baby girl's wellbeing - in protection and nutrition.
𐙚 ~ 𐙚
Kento Nanami
Tumblr media
Nanami arrives exactly on time, wearing a crisp, short-sleeve button-up, chinos, and loafers. He’s got that “corporate professional” vibe, but he’s brought an expensive bottle of whiskey for your dad, which earns him some immediate points.
Your uncles are all, “Damn, you came dressed for an interview, huh?” Nanami just smiles politely. “I like to make a good impression.”
He’s definitely stiff at first, sticking close to you like a lifeline. But once he’s cornered by your aunties, he starts to loosen up. “So, what you do, Mr. Nanami?” He tries to explain his job without getting into the whole “exorcising curses” thing. “I work in finance.”
“Oh, he got money!”someone yells as a joke, and the aunties start whispering about how you finally brought home a “grown man.” Everyone was baffled at him, as they knew of your reckless, short-tempered and rebellious nature - so how did you get a well mannered, calm, smart gentleman.
The turning point is when your little cousin tugs on his pant leg. “Hey, you wanna play Uno?”
Nanami’s too polite to say no, even though you can see the confusion on his face. Ten minutes later, he’s in a heated game of Uno, being ruthlessly ganged up on by your cousins. “You guys are cheating," he mutters under his breath, drawing four cards as your cousins cackle with evil glee.
You can't help but laugh at the grown man amongst kids, but part of you sees a good father in him. By the end of it, Nanami is chilling with your dad and uncles, sipping whiskey and giving good business advice. “You know, that Nanami guy’s alright,” your dad admits later, a rare stamp of approval.

Names (Harem AU)
I am taking a break from work, so posting for archive purposes
At some point, Arturia realized she'd accumulated a number of nicknames without even realizing it.
Gilgamesh's was the most obvious, because he'd never stopped calling her "My Queen" and eventually she stopped correcting him. (He also calls her his little lioness, and his treasure.) People have noticed she doesn't get irritated at the moniker anymore, but she'd deny it if they point it out.
It is actually an area of conflict between him and Lancelot, because Lancelot continues to call her "My Liege" as he did back in Camelot. Of course, this nickname is not unique to him. He also uses "My King" along with Bedivere. Is it his way to assert dominance over the others? Maybe.
Bedivere is insistent on calling her "My King" and uses it most often, sometime alternating between "my liege" like Lancelot and "my Lord". Bedi has known her the longest, so he's actually been one of the few who called her Arthur way back when. Apparently, calling her "Arturia" is an entirely new hurdle all on its own, but he's getting there. Slowly. (You can do it, Bedi!)
Diarmuid started calling her "'Turia" because he tried to use "Arty" once and nearly got murdered by Kay. He's a bit romantic though, so naturally, he'd still prefer to call her by her full name, especially since among the non-Camelot Servants, he was technically the first to find out it was "Arturia" and not "Arthur".
The Cú's call her "Shortie". Because. Be... because she's. Well. Because she's—
Caster in particular also calls her "missy", because he likes to insist that he's older. Lancer's corny and tries to call her the very modern "babygirl" but it doesn't quite land. Ever. Alter usually just says her name or 'shortie'. Only when he thinks she won't hear, he says 'a rún'.
Ozymandias calls her "ya amar" which is a recent thing. He's only said it once, and for the rest of that day, he was quite melancholic. Arturia's not exactly sure what he meant by it, but it made Nitocris spit out her drink when she heard it. Most of the time, he just uses her title.
Kay and Merlin are the only ones who call her 'Arty', but Bedi is allowed, and Diar's slowly getting the license to do so. Merlin calls her 'princess' sometimes, but he only does it to tease.
As for Arturia, she isn't really one for nicknames, but:
Arturia is one of two people that Gilgamesh permits to call him "Gil". The other being Enkidu, of course. (Arturia unintentionally said 'clay' to Enkidu once, to which their snarky response was calling her 'doll'. It stuck and she hates it.) A little later down the line, Arturia also began to call him "My king", but not as an act of subservience. It was an act of trust, and Gilgamesh doesn't take that trust for granted.
Lancelot gets "Lance", which is also what his closer friends from the Round Table call him. Arturia used it quite often during their expeditions across the country, but fell out of the habit as she distanced herself to become their perfect king. She's been re-learning it though, much to Lancelot's delight.
Bedivere is called "Bedi" but well, Arturia's always called him that. He was the very first knight under her employ after all (after Merlin and Kay). Though she limited its usage to informal situations and when they were alone back in Camelot, she now uses it freely.
At his request, Arturia calls Diarmuid by his full name but she sometimes slips and calls him "Dia". It makes him go pink. This one time while hunting for food, she equated him to a deer for how graceful he looked on the field, but failed to realize that when spoken, "deer" was also "dear" and similar enough to "Diar", and so that nickname stuck too.
Cú's name is short enough, but after some time, Fergus suggested she call him Sétanta just to see how he'd react.
Lancer didn't even notice she'd made the switch. Caster did, insisted he'd rather just be called daddy Cú, but he'd be alright with whatever. Alter hated it, said if one syllable was too much trouble to say, she could just call him "Alter". She doesn't, though. She just calls him Cú, because she knows he wants her to. (Lily calls Sétanta "puppy".)
As a general rule, Arturia also has the additional privilege of calling the knights "My Knight," which all of them are happy to hear from the King of Knights herself. She just adds qualifiers. For example, Bedi gets "My most loyal knight."
Ozymandias, well, she asked Ozy why he wouldn't rather be called Rameses or even his regnal name, which she would have learnt to pronounce properly out of respect. When they were alone, he said it was a rather painful reminder, and so Arturia no longer calls him by those names. She calls him "Oz". (also cause I shipped them a long time ago and that was the nickname I assigned. She also calls him Ozy tho HAHA).
And that's it for this post. Maybe I'll make a second one like this for cheesier pet names HAHA we'll see.
