#but this reblog feels like im trying to offer up a son for courtship

[axvwriter]

For the fun of it I thought about if any of my ocs check all these marks. Reminded me of how I tend to make a lot more gals than guys. Also just made me wonder if it has to be human- Which made me realize that sounds really odd and potentially sus without explanation. Most of my characters are monsters/aliens that are human-like. (Like all those characters in Wander Over Yonder.)

-Comfortable silence

I think a good amount of my guys are capable of that.

-Aesthetic ✨

Has made me realize that I don’t usually think about how good my characters are with asthetics. Technically I have at least three that should be good with it considering they’re basically performers. Not sure that two of them would care to take it to their casual wear though?

-Intelligent 📚

I do have several dudes that be intelligent. Though I have one in particular that is smart, like he’s a doctor, but he fails with coming up with good jokes. Do these men have to be socially/emotionally intelligent too? I suppose doctor technically fits that too considering what he be doing, but not sure it would be with flying colors considering his mess of a relationship.

-Suffered unimaginable horrors (or well imaginable hardships because if it’s unimaginable then how does one describe it? Maybe I need further explanation…)

I’m uncertain how to qualify any of them for this… though I do think I have several that do pass for this?

Only one man really matches all of these.

Aelius Sun.

A man who is only close to his brothers and refuses to get close to anyone else. Not only because he’s not that sociable, but mostly because he and his brothers have been cheating death.

Grew up as a performer so should know his aesthetics. He’s considered the smart one out of his brothers and has been the one to figure out what he and his brothers are doing. Constantly studied spells and still puts a good amount of time into the pursuit of consuming libraries gaining knowledge.

He’s not that talkative and does enjoy peace and quiet. As for the unimaginable horrors he may or may not have faced… well I’m not sure how much I want to keep to myself or actually let slip. Though that’s me thinking of an important event. Basically his life, before cheating death, is a bit of a horror? Grew up in a world where bloodthirsty monsters way outnumbered the entire human population. Being a member of one of the five families capable of magic, he’s responsible for keeping people alive. His family played a more defensive role, yet he would go with some of his family to fight back any duberios (creatures for simplicity sake as of right now) getting a little too close to the Sun Kingdom.

I know this is probably Auburn talking about characters from games, but I thought it would be fun to consider if I have any characters that fit. Just see if I’m unknowingly lacking in considering anything for my characters. Which I now know is considering their aesthetic sense. Which makes me wonder if I have enough myself to actually give it to any of them. (But I’ll wing it if I don’t. Have to do that for my super smarties already.)

If this is a really weird thing to do, let me know Auburn and I’ll delete this.

cybird hands me a man i could sit in a comfort silence with, a man that has a good sense for aesthetics, a man that is intelligent but isolated by the people around him, a man that has suffered unimaginable horrors, and i grab him faster than the spend of light
