As I said, I need to ramble more about Shrignold, so here's some headcanons! Heheeeeee
I think Shrig loves kids and babies, like he's the one to always aproach a kid on a stroller and try to make it laugh, always offers to baby sit, soothe a crying child even if he has to rock them in his arms for an hour and laugh/get emotional at videos of kids doing stuff.
He doesnt know how to ride anything, like not even a bike or a scooter, because he was never taught to and doesnt really have interest on it because he loves being a passanger princes and being taking everywhere. Although he does know how to ride a horse! Atleast he knows how to sit on one without falling.
I think he would collect many things, and maybe be a bit of a hoarder. A few examples of stuff he collects are: Four-leafed clovers, thimbles, teeth, buttons, those Precious Moments porcelain dolls, rings, candles…
Shrignold has a very poor concept of time since he doesnt find it important. He doesnt own a singular clock or calendar and most of the time he doesnt even know in what day or month he is in, and if you ask him the hour he'll just say "It's not an important matter, loom at the sun and it'll tell you." (beef w Tony)
He has a hard time reading the room, mostly because no one ever taught him to, so if the mood is clearly a not good one, Shrignold wont be able to understand and he'd keep acting normally, though if someone directly tells him, he'll get embarrased and probably keep quiet for the rest of the time or just leave.
99.999% of Shrignold's gifts will be handmade by him truly, because he likes showing off his crafting skills, and because he refuses to waste a pound on something that he can do.
He's an early bird, but like VERY early. He wakes up at 5 am sharp every day, meaning he also goes to bed very early, around 8 or 9 pm. And he's a heavy sleeper, so he can go 10 hours asleep without waking up a single time. He'll rarely stay up past midnight but he's never waking up late.
He has a very low alcohol tolerance, one glass of wine already has him tipsy, which is bad because when drunk he gets very annoying , stumbling, slurring, and even saying some personal stuff no one wants to hear.
He's great at hiding his true emotions. Like, he can be absolutly furious with someone and keep a straight, calm demeanor; or be extremly anguished and not let his eyes get glassy or his voice break.
He has a natural talent for music, apart from singing well, he has been able to master quite a lot of instruments, the ones he's better at are: The harp, the piano, the harpsichord, the flute, the kalimba, and the organ. Although if he wanted to, he could probably learn to play many more.
Shrignold is an extrocert, but will get unconfortable/shy around people that are more extroverted than him. Because he's the kind of extrovert that just isnt scared to aproach people and can easily start a conversation (I mean, a cult leather can't really aford to be an extrovert).
My shrig's right pupil is heart shapped, why? In my Shrignold lore, Shrignold is the leader of the love cult by nepotism; that is, before he was the leader, his parents were the leaders, and before his parents, it was his grandparents and so on.
So, Perhaps several generations ago one of Shrignold's ancestors was born with a malformation in the pupil that made it look like a heart, and they thought this was a blessing and that babies that were born with this malformation were special, so they started aming for that malformation so the cult leaders child could be born this way, as a result, babies born with this malformation could not see well but were seen as blessed, so like, Shrig is VERY blind on his heart shaped eye.
