About the Muse

I was tagged by @jokomalegacy, thank you so much!! I love doing these a lot 

  | ― your muse’s name:

Dego Tikkab

| ― one favorite picture/face claim of your muse:

here is the lovely boy done up by @kaseyno !! pls forgive my terrible resizing and cropping skills, i am literally working with just ms paint. 

| ― two headcanons you have for your muse:

Dego is a master billiards player. He started learning when he was very young, when his father would bring him to the local dive bar for a fun-filled afternoon of bar food and shooting pool. By the time he was eleven, Dego was playing for money, and a few years after that, he won first place in Rendili's junior league tournament. After he left the Exchange, playing pool was one of his main sources of income, and he still plays even now, entering tournaments every so often just for the hell of it.

He loves sweets. Like, A Lot. He's a regular at four different bakeries/sweets shops across the galaxy, to the point where they will actually call him if they have new recipes they're thinking of selling.

| ― three things that your muse likes doing in their free time:

He loves to collect shiny things. They don't necessarily have to have value, just be shiny and look cool and maybe have an interesting story to go along with it. His more favored pieces, he likes to send them off to be made into jewelry and the like, so he always has a bit of bling with his outfit.

If he's anywhere near a body of water that's safe to swim in, you will surely find Dego there, either doing laps or floating or just splashing around. He's always felt drawn to water, and being in it tends to settle him in ways he can't even begin to explain.

Browsing the HoloNet + online shopping. Dego likes to be up on all the latest smemes (space memes), so whenever he has a spare minute between conducting business or whatever, he likes to pull out his personal datapad and just. scroll. Eventually, he always finds himself on some store website that sells stickers or novelty magnets or funny t-shirts, and he'll end up buying himself and his friends a couple dozen things just for the heck of it.

| ― seven people your muse loves/likes:

Astred Bridger. The closest thing he ever had to a sister. They met when Astred was being chased out of the market for stealing and he decided to help her escape the cops. That was pretty much their whole dynamic. Astred had a tendency of getting them into trouble, and Dego was very good at talking his way out of it, usually. They complemented each other very well, Astred's cynicism with Dego's optimism. When she died, it left a hole in his heart.

Sev Kilvaer; best friend, reckless asshole but that's his reckless asshole.

Liett; big crush, eventual boyfriend, goofy drinking buddy that he likes to tell silly stories to.

Kosha; his very chaotic daughter, he's teaching her how to play pool.

Aric Jorgan; his (eventual) boyfriend's grumpy husband, and eventually his boyfriend too, loves to push his buttons. 

Nataja Tikkab; his first cousin, cooking tutor, and they and their husband are expert child wranglers so part-time babysitter as well!

Aman Pomwe; his tattoo artist and friend, they hang out occasionally to have a few beers and catch up, sometimes they go fishing.

| ― a phobia your muse has:

Hospitals! Too many of his relatives have died in hospitals and Dego tends to avoid them like the plague. If he needs emergency treatment, he is calling a medic friend or having a doctor brought to him, but he will not (voluntarily) step foot in a hospital.
