Sparda only has portraits because he was afraid the rumors of cameras stealing souls in the Victorian era was correct. Didn't want his boys losing their human souls :/
The dude just has a bunch of misconceptions from 2000 years of hearing human rumors and trying to figure out technology that evolved so fast compared to what demons have

In the curriculum of my social services vocational class (focused on helping disabled people) we were taught to always. Always. Deep in your Soul. Believe and approach situations with, "Everyone is doing the best they can, with what they have".
I've lost way more of my own ability since then and I have forgotten A Lot but like. It's a good value to have in everyday life, but why I'm mentioning it now is it's a fascinating thing to apply to your creative projects too.
Because, to me. Even Gustav was doing his best with what he had. And when I say that, believe me, I say it with a deep, deep sense of agony and despair.

“the mortifying ordeal of being known” what about the horrifying ordeal of someone thinking they know you but really they’re just misinterpreting everything and superimposing traits and characteristics onto you that aren’t there and creating a different you you don’t know how to get out of their head but every time they look at you you know they’re seeing something that isn’t you and that you don’t want them to see

My sister was saying "You should write that idea for a novel about [REDACTED] that you had a while ago for NaNo. I think that could be really fun" and I was like oh yeah! I remember we got a kick out of that one. And then, after a pause, had be like... could you remind me what the plot was again? Because litearlly all I could remember was that it had been funny At The Time and involved [REDACTED].
It was like when my mum reads a book and strongly recommends it to me the day after she finishes it, but can't remember any of the characters names or what happened, but it was definitely very good and I should read it so we can talk about it!
Except this was a story I made up myself and devoted not an insignificant amount of thought to, and then never committed any of what I came up with to the page because it was still early stages and I would "remember" what my initial ideas were 🙄

dad for one but with rei...
Could you like, imagine if Rei was his daughter he didn't know what to do with, she's strong and cold but doesn't particularly want to be a villain, and he doesn't much want her to be one either, not in any way that threatens his stuff or her life at least. But then he hears Endeavor's been looking around for a match and he thinks "oh, there's no way he's gonna fall for an ice match right, he knows that would end awful right" but uh he fell for the match and the fake family in need and Rei's beautiful but aloof air, so,,, why not stick with it and see where it goes? it'll be good blackmail material, right? and its not like his daughter has a life of her own, or anything. he can bring her back to the base after and no one is any wiser, and she'll hate heroes even more and- kid?? and a second kid so soon? does she just want to get it over with? well seems like it's working, his underling tells him Touya is having problems with his quirk, but now instead of divorce and setting himself up for blackmail, Endeavor just keeps trying?? now four grandkids?? and Rei, showing her nerves on the phonecall with him for the first time in years, tells him that Touya tried to kill his baby brother and this one actually had the quirk Endeavor wanted and AfO thought impossible?? AfO decides nows the time to collect his family back and gets Touya before he can completely burn up, but Rei realizes she'd rather have her kids stuck with Enji than AfO, so she chooses to burn Shoto's face so Enji keeps him close and sends her away and??? i dunno she just hopes everyone forgets about Fuyumi and Natsuo because they're safer ignored and neglected than anything else???
