He would nod at the other’s words, rubbing the back of his neck bashfully. He did have a point, and Hope would hate to be lectured by someone else. Perhaps he did get lucky and run into the elfin boy. Besides, it wasn’t everyday he found someone his age who also liked reading tactic books ! Listening to the other, he would nod again, offering him a small smile this time.

❝ Yeah, they interest me. I didn’t always read them, but like you said, it’s more out of necessity now. I just didn’t really figure another teen would be reading tactics, though. ❞

hope has some terrible self esteem tbh. like he becomes confident in ff13 bc everyone is there to pump him up and compliment him in stuff. in ff13-2 tho, his self esteem goes down again bc we all know alyssa ain't telling him how great he is. besides that he's extremely modest so,,, yeah

I like how at the end of hope’s paradox ending he’s like actually surprised that people want to assassinate him like ?? obviously people do, because not only are you trying to make the future better, you’re also the one that built a new cocoon and also tried to bust vanille and fang out of the crystal pillar so tbh ? why are you surprised hope ? the title of your paradox ending is literally the future is hope why are you so surprised

003. Does your character like coffee better, or tea?

he drinks both, but he generally prefers teas more ( specifically iced teas ).

028. What makes them laugh out loud?

hope, laughing out loud ? sounds fake. but in all seriousness, it takes a lot to get something more than a little chuckle out of him, but just being genuinely happy makes the laughing easier. like, if you somehow manage to get him to relax, making him laugh at your jokes and stuff is a lot easier.

051. If they knew they would die tomorrow, what would they do today?

at the end of his paradox ending he knows he’s supposed to get assassinated in 3 days so, kinda close ? either way he would probably let the people close to him know that he loves them, and then work more feverishly on his work to get as much done as possible because why sit around and do nothing when he could be doing something.

072. In a Dungeons & Dragons game, which class would your character be? (wizard, fighter, bard, priest, ranger, etc.)

wizard, because he likes magic / is good at magic so it just fits.

082. What are your character’s sleeping preferences?

on the nights when he can actually get a full night’s sleep, he prefers his room slightly cold, his sheet and 2 blankets, and some quiet noise like a fan. it also really helps when he has someone there sleeping / cuddling with him but,, that doesn’t happen really lol.
