#And your cat doesn't develop too much of an interest in said snake;;

18, 26, 28 👀

I'll be ambitious here and answer for everyone since you didn't specify hehe

18. a memory that still makes your OC angry?

Orsinio: Since he's gotten tenure at the university, whispers have died down, but he still knows how much people at Summerset resent him, and he doesn't forget what they said to him even if they're pretending to like him now. More than almost anything, he hates his competency being questioned because of disability and origin. If ur mean to him, prepare to get poisoned, have your scandals published in an exposé, or both

Lucretia: The murder of Orsinio's brother Horatio, whom she had unresolved feelings for. It was unfair and needless violence, she'll never quite be over it, and she's great at repressing feelings till they boil over. Orsinio was the one to do Nemesis, and she feels he deserved to because it was his brother, but sometimes she wishes she'd done it.

Samuel: In his days as a zee captain, anyone who insinuated he didn't actually care about his crew because he's aloof got promptly thrown into the water. Now anyone who hurts his loved ones becomes public enemy no. 1

Miles: Standing across from their father's desk while he told them that they would never amount to anything, which led to the decision to come to the Neath. The fact that no matter how hard they try, they still can't forget him or stop caring about his approval. This festering anger and loathing is what sent them on the path North

Skies Captain M.: uhhhhh whatever tf is going on at Brabazon

26. least favorite food and color?

Interesting! I never really thought too much about this, new OC lore being developed as we speak. Hmm (on a related note I would not survive the Neath because I hate mushrooms lol)

Orsinio: Color: the rotten orange of the Parabola sky. He really doesn't like being there, it holds mostly bad memories for him, and it's a pale imitation of what can never be returned to. Food: he doesn't like chocolate because I don't like chocolate.

Lucretia: Color: red, she's a doctor so sees lots of blood, the stains are impossible to get rid of, and it's a reminder of suffering and sickness. Also Nemesis related trauma. Food: She grew up with great food insecurity so tbh she'll eat anything. She doesn't strike me as a seafood person tho, so uh good luck being in the Neath

Samuel: Color: green and gold, haunted by the lure of the East. Food: hmm he's got the autism so there's probably lots, strikes me as the kind of guy to live off the same 8 things forever. He's a bartender, but I think for a specific example of something he doesn't like, it's fruity drinks. Fruit can be tasty but fruit flavoring... that is a minefield

Miles: Color: their family made its fortune in textiles, so everything was garish bright colors. Miles avoids that and tends to favor dark and neutral colors, earth tones. (Good thing a certain Professor uses that pallet) Food: They strike me as picky about vegetables. Autism also

Cap: Color: that horrible beige-grey-white that permeates the Blue Kingdom. Sapphir'd King can ssuck their ass. Food: you know what? congrats Cap, you're vegetarian now, they're not a meat person and completely lost their appetite for it with all the weird settlers in the Reach that eat people. No UP in this house! Not doing it!

28. is your OC a dog or cat person?

Orsinio: dogs

Lucretia: cats

Samuel: birds

Miles: crawlies (slugs, snakes, yeah)

Cap: inadvisably big dogs

A SHIPPING MEME FOR MUSE TOLD BY THE MUN

💕- HOW AFFECTIONATE IS YOUR MUSE

Nathanaël is incrediblyaffectionate. He is warmhearted and all but wears his heart on his sleeve whenit comes to those he holds close in romantic or platonic regards. Physicalaffection does tend to still fluster him regardless, but depending on how closehe is with someone he won’t be above initiating small bouts of it himself. He’sall about brushing shoulders, knocking knees, touching fingers with some slightinterlacing, and even leaning his head against the other person, just to name afew.

💘- WHAT IS YOUR MUSE LIKE IN SHIPS

It’ll vary from ship to ship of course, but in general whenhe falls, truly falls, for someone hefalls hard. He pretty much crash lands into a sea of fluffy feelings andadoration. He puppy-dogs hard, becoming super observant when it comes to hiscrush and things about them, even if a lot of his admiration is done from afar. He genuinely likes to see the people he’s fond of be happy, even if theirhappiness doesn’t involve him, and if he can help them out he’d be hard pressednot to.

That doesn’t mean he’ll find talking to them to be easy,especially if they don’t have an established friendship first. Interactionswith his crush (and sometimes even his partners in the beginning of theirromantic relationships) really do help him live up to his nickname of “tomatochild”.

💌- WOULD YOUR MUSE WRITE A LOVE LETTER

He would, though I can’t guarantee that the letter won’thave drawings in the margins of it-or that it won’t come as some sort of comicor drawing instead. He’s not as comfortable with his words as he is with hisdrawings. He feels he doesn’t have the necessary finesse to write romanticprose all by itself, though he does find it easier to convey his feelingsthrough writing them than just saying them out loud. There’s less stuttering intext (most of the time).

Regardless, he thinks they’re nice and if he doesn’t write aletter he’d definitely do something else to help convey his mushy thoughts.
