#Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds (headcanon)

no thoughts. head empty. just Howell putting in the massive effort to learn the language someone prefers to speak. I’m talking spending day and night finding every bit of info on the language he can and asking so many questions on how to say certain things.

Tbh. Howell, no matter what, will never stop reaching out to his brother. Will never stop offering a helping hand. Regardless of how things are between them. No matter how terrified he may be of what Philip has turned into. Because he will always feel responsible for taking care of him. Of course he will not agree with anything the man does nor will he play along with it and makes that very clear.

Should Philip ever manage to get away from the Titan, change his mind, break the curse, whatever each Belos rper goes with, Howell will welcome him back with open arms no matter what.

Because SHIT he will always care about him. Even with the state he’s in right now.

tbh I should say that Howell is very trusting and his faith in people is strong but like. shoving the blame on him, when it’s something he absolutely did not do, is a surefire way to make him trust you less. hell. it will even make him feel more uncomfortable around you.

Howell does not have social media. At all. but can be found appearing in photos in other people’s posts. man is limited to phonecalls and text messages and tends to not be part of group chats bigger than with like. 4 other people. anything bigger gets him overwhelmed. the reason why he’s so limited is because he is terrible with technology and he already has so much new stuff to get used to. leave the poor man alone.

// if someone calls Howell ‘Caleb’, he will cease to exist. he is gone. and he’s not coming near you for at least a couple months. and then you’ll have to start over the friendship with a more cautious Howell.

[betwccnworlds]

I’m gonna go get ready to sleep but. never point knives at Howell. never throw knives at him. never throw knives AROUND HIM. never play with knives around him. you WILL trigger him.

[betwccnworlds]

thinks about Howell dressing more femininely. thinks about Howell getting another palisman, wanting Flapjack to stay with Hunter, and it helping him with Ilussion magic so he can switch between masculine and feminine features whenever he wants. . .

anyway this goober is bigender

[betwccnworlds]

also don’t bother showing Howell any memes. he wont understand them and WILL take them way too seriously.

[betwccnworlds]

reminder that this is my voice claim for Howie!!! <3

[betwccnworlds]

// tbh calling Howell ‘Caleb’ will actually upset him. ‘Howell’ and ‘Koen’ and ‘Koenraad’ are fine but. not ‘Caleb’. never that name.

[betwccnworlds]

I think what’s also really funny is that some people think he’s like. this really dignified guy, which he is, who doesn’t date or go out or spend the night with people much. but. haha. HAHA. MAN.

[betwccnworlds]

Gestures at the comic. Once he realizes shit was traumatic, he absolutely physically can’t drink apple blood or eat meat that hasn’t been cooked well to the point there’s no blood.

[betwccnworlds]

Scars!!!

Most of them are from Clips throwing knives at him. That one big one is from Philip stabbing him once on accident. He also has marks from the whip on his back from that one time his father punished him.

// Reminder that this is my voiceclaim for Howell :)

[betwccnworlds]

Howell copes with the grimwalkers by considering the ones below 18 his kids and the ones 18 and above his siblings. The man does not like thinking about how he was used as a tool by his parents and then his own brother cloned him and used those clones as tools.
