Comsuming it like air, def infected with the brain rot!

Wade is gonna creamm when he sees Peter in the suit, all pointy n shit.

Were the glowy eyes a lore piece or an artistic decision?

Thank you so much! <3 <3

It's lore-based! Spiders (and many creatures) have an eye-shine called Tapetum!

The iridescent pink is an artistic decision, to match the rest of the aesthetic! And the eyeshine is visible in the same conditions you'd see it in animals, so, mostly in the dark and at certain angles.

Give me George info in the Royal Preds AU. I crave. Feed us. 🖐 -random-tinies

Hell yeah

Some of this information is stuff I haven't bounced off Squid yet, so it might not match up with their canon.

Also I am totally gonna use this to infodump about the entire royal family for a minute, sorry man

So first of all, George has the most fae blood out of any characters besides Phil, Quackity, and Technoblade. And among those four, no one but Quackity has more Unseelie blood. This is because Quackity is a first gen pred--his father was Unseelie fae.

Now you get the nerd part.

Here's a family tree with fae bloodlines included. H is percentage of human blood, S is percentage of Seelie blood, and U is Unseelie blood. The numbers next to their names are overall faeblood percentages.

I had Phil and Techno as brothers by the same father. I gave Phil two wives and a concubine to explain why his three sons have different bloodlines. Disclaimer: his wives both died of natural means, he had to remarry because royalty stuff. He's not just a dick who marries and divorces a ton.

His first wife was George's mother, and it was a political marriage. They didn't hate each other, but they weren't in love. They were friends more than anything. She was also completely Unseelie in bloodline.

His second wife was Kristin, whom he loved dearly. She was also Unseelie, but less so.

After her death, he gave up on marriage. He did, however, spend one night with a concubine, which produced a child. just his luck, that his ONE night would give him a son.... he loves Tommy, though, and doesn't regret it. he only regrets laying with a woman who wasn't Kristin.

So as a result, Tommy is 10% seelie fae, Wilbur is 10% seelie and 4% unseelie, and George is 10% seelie and 6% unseelie.

Of course, they wouldn't know this. They can sometimes guess at their own bloodlines or trace it back, but they don't know for sure.

They just know that George acts the most predatorlike out of the three of them.

Okay, on to the George-specific stuff.

He's the eldest, but the least emotionally connected to Phil. He was always closer to his mother.

He's Unseelie, so he's somewhat of a monster at heart. He's a good liar, for how fae he is (making up for what his ancestors were unable to do, honestly) and fairly dismissive of others' feelings. (Though that could certainly be because of his royal upbringing.)

He sees Dream as a pet, ornament, or plaything more than a person. Upperclass social conventions typically label borrowers as "less than human," more similar to having a pet present in terms of social taboos. Because of this, George has no problem doing things like wearing underclothes that would normally be unacceptable for a prince to wear with company, or sleeping with him in the room.

He also likes to bring Dream with him to social functions like dinners and balls. Sometimes he treats Dream like a pet, carrying him in his hands and showing him off. Other times he instructs Dream to perch on his shoulder and not move too much... like a decoration.

He'll sometimes tug on or play with Dream's tail without his consent. He doesn't really think to empathize, since he doesn't have one.

He calls Dream and his kind preyfolk in private sometimes, though he defaults to "borrowers" more often.

(Aside: Tommy calls them "tiny folk" or "little guys" along with "borrowers." Wilbur calls them preyfolk or borrowers. Techno calls them borrowers, smallmen, or rats--"rats" is derogatory and "smallmen" mostly used by working class humans. Phil calls them borrowers or tiny folk.)

Hm, he's kind of--no, he's absolutely a prick and hates to be talked back to. (Reason number #2 that he and Sapnap don't get along for a while.) He's overly full of himself, as expected of royalty, and prideful, as expected of the fair folk.

His favorite color is blue, and so is his favorite doublet. Also his favorite cloak. Um, everything is blue.

And! His teeth are sharper than a human's ought to be :)

Not enough to be obviously inhuman, but enough to make him terrifying and uncanny when he wants to be.
