#a lot of the same psychological mechanics going on with them I feel like. oh and I love them both very much of course #again I must ask. is this intentional. I know for sure now these guys are fellow league lore sufferers and use existing characters as inspo #is it just a matter of overlap in archetypes. a subconscious influence. night and day I wonder about these things #once upon a witchlight #gideon coal #I was about to say that gideon might be ever so slightly nicer than graves on a base level but actually... no not really haha #they're both about equally capable of pretty callous violence towards people that aren't Their People #gideon is notably capable of being very kind to the few people he considers his in-group -- most particularly kremy and twig #but sometimes it includes the rest of the krew too lol -- but I think graves is actually very similar it's just that he has an in-group #of exactly one (1). it's tf and him against the world. he's harder to get an in with but once you're there I think he works the same #kremy collects minions I mean people that come along with the marriage and tf extremely does not which I think might play into it lol
