OF COURSE IT ISN'T TRUE. I would never do something so... disreputable!

perhaps you should talk to the soldaten... This rumor is on them.
...good point.
he’s just gonna go hide behind a mountain and pout because people are being MEAN.
yhwch:
he smiled with ease at the sternritter’s obvious glee.
THE MORALE IS HIGH. I AM PLEASED. I KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN SHEPHERDING THE YOUNG ONES. YOU HAVE MY THANKS FOR IT. HAVE YOURSELF BEEN WELL? THE HEART IS LIFE. IT MUST TEND TO ITSELF.
“I seek only to be all you ask of me and more.”
His Majesty’s kindness truly knows no bounds. Though he exists so far above all others, he cares for those who fight in his name.
“...I have been keeping myself in peak form, to be ready for the war ahead. My mind and body are unclouded and resolute. You have given me new purpose, and I shall repay you in kind.”
@shiroiacha gigi vc: -evil laughter-
HOW COULD YOU.
@lasmenina: I don't know why they think this :')
i just asked you to paint my nails ONCE, and now people are making such wild accusations...
so you and meni, huh?
EXCUSE YOU, I HAVE EYES FOR ONLY ONE MAN
...YOU HEARD NOTHING

𝕴𝖌𝖓𝖔𝖗𝖆𝖓𝖈𝖊 𝖜𝖆𝖘 𝖆 𝖇𝖑𝖎𝖘𝖘, even among the ritters the concept of fashion could easily be seen. Individuality was what made them even stronger in their own way. Repression was never the best way to keep a group living in peace. A small smirk was hidden by the mask.
❝ I believe I do, back in my quarters. Are you wanting something that resembles the adornments of your own past, or something for the sake of modernity? ❞
“...Well, if I take a look at both, can I see what works best? I trust your judgement, but... there are still a few things I would like to keep.”
His cape, his helm, and his weapons are things he will never part with. They were shaped by his people’s beliefs, given form by their faith in him. He will never part with them. They are all he has left of them.
Still, he’s up for experimentation... though he does like having no shirt.
WHAT KIND OF ABSOLUTE IMPROPRIETY
kyousei:
Friend? That’s quite the dangerous word to use around Silbern, especially toward Gremmy. Many Soldat foolish enough to trust the boy had been ripped apart for the simple enjoyment; was Gerard foolish enough to put himself in harm’s way, too?
❝I can keep a secret.❞
❝What about you? Do you have friends, Gerard? I bet you don’t get along with the rest of the Schutzstaffel as well as you get along with me.❞
Death is not something that Gerard fears. He always comes back, stronger than ever. There are very few things that can put him down permanently. Being in harm’s way is a natural state of being for him.
“Eh... The others tend to be a bit stiff. Lille is a sniper, so he tends to favor quiet and solitude. Pernida is, well... mysterious. Le Vaar is new, but there’s always the details of onboarding and such, so he doesn’t have much free time. I still like them though, and try to make conversation.”
senboago:
This one’s energy is… unique. Bostorious like the Heat, but in a different sense. At least it’s one that doesn’t get under her skin. That isn’t even to mention his approach towards someone in such an unrecognized position. It’s… strange.
Not that she can’t take it with stride. At the very least, nothing is directed towards herself, but to the elder commander. Elsabeth nodded in agreement. “What I’ve seen from afar, he is.” Though she’s certain other Sternritters would say otherwise.
Not a talker, huh? Well, Gerard can figure out how to get her to open up.
“So, how did you come to join the illustrious ranks of the Vandenreich? I know that the journey to His Majesty’s army is long and arduous for some, but if the story doesn’t draw upon painful memories, I would love to hear it!”
With any luck, she’ll also have a few things to say about the World of the Living outside the hidden home of the Vandenreich. He always likes hearing about just how much the world has changed since he was there.
senboago:
“Huh?”
The booming voice was enough to grab her attention, as it would anyone’s. Even so, his greeting… to one of low rank. Odd. But it was rude not to answer the man. “Oh— Elsabeth Morgenstern, soldat to the Sternritter N— Accutrone, sir.” She gives him a customary salute of course.
“Forgive me for not welcoming you sooner! Having found your way into the glorious ranks of the Vandenreich is an honor to be celebrated. And under a Schrift so close to my own!”
Gerard envied his fellow Sternritter so. They had troops to command, companies at their beck and call, and the opportunity to bond with the rank-and-file through training and discipline, but also common purpose and the joy of camaraderie. Theirs was a just war, a righteous war. Why should they not find joy in waging it, united under the banner of His Majesty? But alas, Gerard has his station, and though he yearns for the fraternity between soldiers, he must make do with his fellow Schutzstaffel. His Majesty has deemed it so, and besides... he cannot trust himself after his failure.
“I think you’ll come to like Accutrone. Despite his reserved exterior, he recognizes merit when he sees it, and his wit is as quick as his draw!”
kyousei:
❝You think so?❞ Gremmy chimes, floating back toward his guard without a care in the world. Opportunity to spend time away from the cage was enjoyed, albeit rare. Out of the Schutzstaffel, Gerard always seemed to be the only one The Visionary was able to convince to let him free, after all.
❝Großmeister won’t get mad if he sees you letting me out, right~?❞
“It’ll be our little secret, friend!”
He raises a finger to his lips in a gesture of silence, giving a wink, one of the lights within his helm flickering out for but a moment. Gerard, being a friendly sort, understands His Majesty’s and the Grandmaster’s concern and prudence, and so, he wants to ensure that Gremmy’s loyalties lie with the Sternritter. Should he come to resent them, it would be nothing short of calamitous.
“And of course I think so. Every person should have some friends about their age! Befriending your peers is a step in the right direction. I’m very proud!”
@hasshein
lies. he would not slap the hand away. he would shake it. thank you for noticing
gerard the dude who would ask someone to rub his muscles down with oil in a completely platonic sense with zero change in facial expression
yhwch:
THAT IS… YOU ARE THE SPIRIT. THE PALACE IS FULLER FOR YOUR MIRACLE, GERARD OF THE HEART. ——- REJOICE.
Pardon him, he’s currently trying not to let out an undignified noise out of sheer elation at such praise...

It’s what people accept as pleasant to the eye. But it is ruled by weather, which is why the changes in attire are divided by seasons. You have a plethora of options to choose from, and according to whom you want to show to the world, you choose them. As to houses, not all families have those nowadays, in fact, most don’t. It’s mostly something kept to older families that keep track of their origins❞
“Well, it makes sense that the others would forget such things. The only true station is within His Majesty’s ranks! All other titles are merely falsehoods to be shattered by the unification of life and afterlife.”
He says it so casually, as if undoing the great sundering of worlds is just another task to be done. The odds would seem impossible, but Gerard professes nothing less than utter faith in His Majesty. It’d be worrying if it weren’t so expected by now.
“...Do you have any reference material? I have considered adding some accessories to my heraldry.”
