∞- Does your muse believe in afterlife?
You know, I’m very glad you sent this one because it’s something that I haven’t really given much thought myself, because ( in and out of supports ) he does speak of death often ( and it’s a constant theme surrounding him; he can’t very easily forget the future, after all, where every person he sees in this present is long gone ), but what about the afterlife? For one who thinks so much about death, he seldom speaks of what comes after.
In his ( general ) supports with his father, he says “My father is dead and gone.” His words are dry and to the point, as he speaks of facts without flowery details. He’s curt and doesn’t shy away from ugly truths, and this leads me to believe that, to him, death is what it is, the end of a life. That is all there is. However, he’s much more sensitive than people think, more hopeful than he leads on. If there’s anything I identify Gerome with, it’s that: his hope, hidden and fragile as it may be, so I doubt he’d completely dismiss the idea that there is life after death ( although influenced by Libra’s parentage, he still says “You spirit is with the gods” in The Future Past ).
✺- Something your muse finds pretty
I was discussing this with Gabi and Rachel just last night, actually! And I’ve been meaning to make a post explaining this because it’s a huge part of his character, but since that falls under the category of “something he finds pretty”, I’m gonna go ahead and write it here.
Getting the obvious thing out of the bag first, he has a twisted sense of beauty according to most people. It is not to say that he doesn’t find beautiful what they do, but that they don’t find beauty where he does.
The biggest example is Minerva. She’s a menacing wyvern, ferocious, absolutely terrifying. Most run away at the mere sight of her, and he is actually very aware of how frightening she is. However, he doesn’t think that’s a bad thing, and her scariness is just another thing that adds to her charm in his eyes.
Taken from the Drama CDs, he calls certain Risen “cute”, and when he comments on Lucina’s hair ornament ( I forget what it was, but I think a hairy bug? Point is, everyone else was repulsed by it ) he says, “It suits you well” with a smile ( to which Severa says, “Thought you’d say that.” ). It’s funny to note that he gets very offended when the Risen ( that were said to avoid ugly things ) stay away from Minerva.
His mother has a huge part in this. As seen in her conversation with Olivia, Cherche finds bugs cute. She keeps an insect husk, calling it adorable, as a memento for their trip to the beach, to which Olivia recoils in disgust at. In most of her conversations with anyone, really, Cherche speaks very highly of Minerva’s cuteness, and it is her peculiar tastes that she passes on to her son.
✆- What your muse’s phone gallery is filled with?
You know those people who have a ton of pictures of their pets and little else? That’s him with Minerva. I suppose in a modern AU she’d be a lizard. He’s not ashamed of it, either — far from it! She’s his pride and joy; ask about any of the pictures and he will most certainly be willing to share with you the details of it.
