Hey, if you're still doing them, would 🎟 and 🌋 be ok? Thanks! : D
Unusual Questions- Open
🎟- Do they like “so bad it’s good” movies?
Tyrian doesn’t watch many movies. He can, he can make out the shapes and can still hear what’s going on, but a lot of the fun of the shitty special effects and editing in bad movies is lost on him. Movies with bad dialogue that’s delivered poorly and paced weird are fun for him, though.
🌋- Has your muse done something stupid and not regret it?
Only every day of his life. One time, he sat on a lightbulb entirely on purpose. It broke and he got the glass stuck in him and now he has an ass scar. He regrets nothing.
“Himbo?? Like the elephant???”
TRANS TYRIAN TRANS TYRIAN TRANS BISEXUAL TYRIANNNN
THATS THE GOOD JUICE
I’m gonna use this as a little chance to say my piece as to why I think, aside from the fact that I want to, trans Tyrian is very very good
I’m just saying, wouldn’t it be cool if there was a reason he always had his tits out? My boy got top surgery and is so happy with it that he literally never wants to wear a shirt even when it is lethally cold temperatures outside and he is a bug.
2. Dedication to Salem, early ties with Watts
Imagine if Tyrian hadn’t transitioned until he met Salem. He’s wanted by the law and I wouldn’t be surprised if he wasn’t even a registered citizen anywhere, where the hell is he going to get top surgery? You can’t exactly hold a surgeon at gunpoint when they put you under for the procedure.
So what if... to further earn Tyrian’s loyalty and feed his dependence on her, Salem has Watts perform the teatus deletus and get Tyrian on HRT? This also gives Tyrian and Watts a reason to have a connection pretty much as soon as Tyrian joined Salem’s faction. [However I don’t think they saw each other as anything more than associates and were pretty professional about the whole thing at this point but that’s not relevant to the topic]
3. The Narrative
Firstly, when applying my circus backstory, I think it would track that he would run into some pretty queer individuals during his time with the troupe, giving him a better idea of the different ways people can identify. This is also the time period where he starts to really think about what he wants. It’s a transitional period for him in a lot of ways, living amongst people and learning that this isn’t how he wants to live, dipping his toes into the waters of his darker impulses and slowly sinking. Getting a better understanding of who he is, what he is, in several different ways.
It just feels like it would fit to have him put a little more thought into what he identifies with gender-wise during this time as well. He could come to realize that being a guy doesn’t mean he has to give up the feminine things he enjoys. That just because he has long hair and likes to have painted nails doesn’t automatically mean he’s a girl.
It also adds a really interesting angle to the subject of maidens, and Salem’s need of one. I can imagine Tyrian beating himself up over not being able to be the maiden She needs, that he can’t put his feelings aside and just be a girl, dammit, but no matter how much he may want it, it wouldn’t change the fact that fundamentally, he isn’t a girl. The maiden powers would not accept him no matter how much he lies to himself. Give me more maiden rules respecting trans people juice please lol
It brings him comfort to realize that although he can’t provide Her with the maiden She needs, that actually makes him a better soldier for her. There’s no temptation of power or ulterior motives tainting his loyalty. His devotion is pure, and he doesn’t have to sacrifice any part of his identity for it. Rather, he is so devoted because he has allowed this passion to become his identity.

Unusual Questions- Open
🛌- Does your muse prefer to sleep under many layers of blankets or only under a few?
Tyrian doesn’t really need much to get by. Usually he’ll sleep under a comforter, sometimes with a sheet underneath. It’s when winter rolls around that he starts burying himself in blankets. He doesn’t do well with the cold.
🐰- Does your muse prefer soft, plush textures or smooth and glossy textures?
The latter. Cool, smooth steel has particular appeal to him.
🕹- What does your muse do to occupy themselves when bored?
Property damage, mostly. He just likes to break things, and will go around flicking lit matches in various directions when he gets too bored. He also likes to lie in wait in various dark corners of the castle and scare the living daylights out of anyone that passes by.
🛣- Is your muse considered a wanderer?
Absolutely. He travels a lot for his work, and gets incredibly anxious when he has to stay in one place for long. He doesn’t like to linger, it feels idle, like stagnation. He needs to move.
🐺- Would your muse consider themselves a lone wolf or a social butterfly?
Lone wolf. It’s not as though he can’t interact with people, he does so pretty often. He just views himself as... detached from society and culture. Alienated. His work is best done from the shadows, and it’s where he feels he belongs. He’s much more content letting his more charismatic associates handle the negotiations. He has a far more practical use.
🤝- Does your muse forgive others easily?
Hmm... Tyrian doesn’t often hold grudges, so when he does, they are usually for a very good reason. Or at least, a good reason to him. So I would say no, but only because it takes a lot in order to require his forgiveness in the first place.
Favorite Musings Challenge!
As writers, we’re usually our own worst enemy. However, there are times where we just read over something we wrote and acknowledge “Oh...that’s good.” and you may or may not end up restructuring the whole reply to fit that one line just cause it was so good, and you spend hours trying to make it work haha...ha.
Anyways, go through a few of your threads/replies/drabbles/any piece of writing you got. Pick out 5 of your favorite lines that you’ve written for your character(s), and in turn tag 5 (or however many others you want) to do the same!
Repost, don’t reblog. And I’m linking my threads to where these lines came from but you don’t have to do that!

//Oh man this one got real long
☻: three things that make my muse sad
Failure. Every piece of Tyrian is built to kill. It’s what he’s good at, it’s what he loves. He took it to extremes, let it consume him. It’s all he is. His purpose in life is to be a weapon, he exists for the sole purpose to be used to harm others. So when he fails in his duties, he feels absolutely worthless. His only value, in his eyes, comes from his ability to hurt. You do not expect a knife to do anything but cut, and you expect it to cut well. If he fails to do the one thing he was put in this world to do, then..... what reason does he have to exist at all? A knife that can’t cut is nothing more than scrap metal, garbage.
Denial. He sees the little seeds of darkness inside of people. He likes to nurture them, to encourage them to indulge in their darker impulses. He’s a firm believer that happiness comes from being comfortable with yourself. Knowing what you enjoy, being honest with it, and pursuing it. To see people deny these parts of themselves feels like holding back. It feels like giving up, not letting yourself live your life to the fullest. To see the dull lives that people lead, the way they grit their teeth and simply allow things to continue at such a mediocre, dissatisfying pace... It saddens him. It’s as though these people are already dead.
Neglect. He knows he is not designed for being loved. Undeserving of tenderness. He wishes he could cut it all out, to just leave a monster behind that knows nothing but carnage and euphoria. He wishes it didn’t hurt so much to be ignored, when he knows a weapon lies forgotten until needed. He’s so sure that’s what he is, an instrument of destruction; so the feeling of longing, of wanting to be seen or held, feels like something he shouldn’t have. It feels like a mistake. And it makes the sadness he feels just that much worse, thinking that he shouldn’t be allowed to be sad about something like this.
☺: three things that make my muse happy
Bloodshed. Tyrian is a sadist in its purest, most concentrated form. Feeling flesh tear under his blades, the smell of a city on fire, the taste of blood, a symphony of screams, it’s ecstasy. It’s a thirst that drives him, controls him, and he sees no reason to stop it from doing so when succumbing to it feels so good.
Love. As confused of an understanding that he has of it, Tyrian is very driven by love. He serves Salem because he loves Her. He chose his place in life because he loves doing what he does. When Tyrian loves something, he gives every last piece of himself to it. He loves intensively, obsessively; he wants to drown himself in it. Let it consume his life.
Utility. This is what it means to be loved. To be used is to be needed. For the talents he can provide to have value to someone, for him to be considered an asset, is the closest approximation to love he allows himself. It’s what makes sense to him. He only knows how to break things, so the best he can hope for is to be seen as very good at breaking things.
How's ♉ and ♓?
Headcanons- Open
♉: is my muse prone to jealousy?
Yes. When he likes someone, he wants their full attention. And he can be very difficult to ignore. He gets jealous of Arthur’s projects being more captivating than him, he gets jealous of Cinder for stealing Salem’s attention away, and he got jealous of Clover for getting a little too close to Qrow.
When someone catches Tyrian’s eye, he wants them to himself, and he is not very good at sharing.
♓: my muse’s biggest secret
He doesn’t have many. He doesn’t have much that he feels the need to hide, and is generally pretty forthright. However, he doesn’t like talking about his past much at all. It was a time in his life filled with pain and doubt and he... doesn’t like to reflect on it much. He usually dodges questions about it or lies to avoid further prodding. Tied to this is the deep, faded scar at the base of his tail. You could ask him about each scar he has and he will tell you a story, but the story is always different for that one in particular.
Hey, um, since Watts never figured out his semblance, I was wondering if you had any headcannons on him and Tyrian trying to figure it out together? No pressure, just thought it could be fun! : D
//I default to a lot of @atlasci ‘s headcanons when it comes to Arthur, to be quite honest, and if you’ve seen my rant post you’ll know I’m less than pleased with the reveal, or at least the way that it was phrased.
But let’s say for the sake of this question that Arthur hasn’t unlocked his semblance. This would cause Tyrian to test literally everything under the sun in an attempt to activate it. It’s unclear how much of it is him being genuinely curious and wanting to help Arthur, and how much of it is just him enjoying finding new ways to pester his physician.
There’s a lot of poking him with random objects to see if there’s a reaction, there’s a lot of attempts to harm him in different ways [he wishes Arthur wasn’t so pissed when he woke up while Tyrian was trying to smother him, he wasn’t going to kill him, he just wanted to help], there’s a lot of “here drink this gasoline and see if you can breathe fire” levels of off-the-wall spitballing as he tries to come up with every conceivable possibility for a semblance. Arthur is Tired.

10 and 14
No Talk Me Am Angy- Closed
10. Has your muse ever hurt themselves in anger?
Absolutely. Both intentionally and unintentionally. Sometimes, he just ends up getting hurt by whatever he’s breaking; getting poked with shards of something, hurting his hand punching a wall too hard. In other cases, he will actively harm himself, either because there’s nothing else around and he needs to hurt something, or because he’s angry with himself.
14. What are habits they have when they become angry?
If he’s already irritated, smaller things have a higher likelihood of getting to him. He growls and mutters incoherently under his breath. There’s a certain wall in castle Evernight that is his designated beating wall. It is riddled with scratch marks and is slightly dented inwards. He often still smiles, but in a way that doesn’t reach his eyes. He may be grinning, but his eyes are screaming murder.
He often goes on walkabouts in the Grimmlands. Straying too far from the castle with that much negativity actually poses a very serious threat, but a nice walk around the perimeter usually gives Tyrian the sort of pacing to cool down paired with a fight that he’s looking for.
