#if i see anyone i follow imply that gil is unintelligent or messy i will literally unfollow and i have done this in the past

I do think that it's pretty heavily implied to a degree that a lot of Gil's loud and hyperaggressive personality is something of a front and that beneath the performance he's much more internalised and rational than a lot of people/the fandom give him credit for. He's stated to be highly intelligent, have an interest and skill in music, is serious about study and education, and keeps to particular personal regimes that require a great deal of discipline and focus. Like, he's still a prideful, arrogant brute of a man but I do think Hima has been working to try and undo/soft-retcon some of that early characterisation tbh
