Thanks to @hasarjunadoneanythingwrong I got inspired to make a Rani!Durga (though I want to make a more just for her art instead of copying from the second ascension but I don't have the time today).

I've been starring at Roy's face for a while, cause I wanted to assume something about him, but realize I know next to nothing about him, thus find assuming anything more than superficial or trivial crap, quite difficult. I've come to the conclusion that I wanna know more about him. So quick! Drop 5 facts about Roy! XD nah, that's up to you... I will however assume he's someone who definitely should get better at opening up and letting people in, perhaps even learn how to put things behind him.

Thank you so much for the ask 💙

First of all... you are spot on with your assumption! Secondly... I'd totally get that you feel that way about Roy.

To be quite honest it's hard not be kinda clueless about him.... Even after getting to know him better.

(Blame it on lackluster character creation idk...but Roy is a strange character even for me. )

But yeah, in order to change that a lil bit here are 5 facts about Roy:

1) Roy's favourite song is By Myself by Linkin Park

Fun fact: Roy and Mel used to share a very similar music taste as kids/teens. Mel actually got a lot of songs he still listens to from him. While Mel has kept a similar taste Roy has drifted more into mainstream music..but he always comes back to this song.

2) Both Roy and Serena used to be...well they were kind of codependant assholes as kids... A tag team from hell if you will. They were incredibly mistrusting of other children and would establish dominance among their peers by scaring them and occasionally beating them up. Serena being the leader while Roy was more of a silent follower but also quite horrible.

They sorta did a 180 after becoming more acquainted with Mel. A key moment for their change being when the three of them found an injured nestling in a park near their group home and, not knowing what else to do, decided to take it home and tried to take care of it.

It died before they could even get it to a vet, but the experience caused them to open up to Mel and be more reflective of their actions.

3) A feeling that haunted Roy throughout most of his life is shame. For his upbringing, the fact that his mother treated him better than his sister, and that he failed to protect her, the way he used to act as a child, his anger and his inability to control it on many occasions, the fact that he can't bring himself to hate his mother despite the abuse he and his sister had to endure from her. There's more but I'll leave it at that because spoiler.

It's something he can't deal with and that he internalised to a point that he barely let's people in...or any emotions out for that matter.

4) Roy is incredibly competitive. You know that kid in PE class that treats every dodge ball game like it's the fucking Olympics? That's him.

Paired with an immense fear of failure (not even fear...more like inability to accept failure whatsoever) and a compulsion to over achieve. For example he used to be an almost straight a student in his teens, apart from a few subjects like Art and English. While also being part of his school's football team.

With everything he does he gives it 200% however he's very prone to neglect his surroundings and own well being in the process.

5) Roy's favourite TV show is Rick and Morty. Occasionally Serena and Roy end up watching a few episodes, which is like the only quality time they spend together these days.
