Hermes, Nike, Oedipus

Hermes - Favorite Place to be

Sellech is completely content and at home in the King’s palace. While he might not mind visiting other places, which he knows will be necessary at times, the palace has been his home ever since he could remember. He would say that he knew every nook and cranny, but Sellech knows there could be plenty of small areas no one has found.

Nike - Greatest Victory

After having won a game against Nyphestos, he was challenged by Amalia to play the game. While he did not win in the end, he definitely made her fight for that victory.

Oedipus - Worst Thing Done

Over the years, Sellech has become a master at poison making. However, it took years for him to get to where he is. That means that there was also a lot of trial and error. During one of his lessons with the other advisor when he was fifteen, he mistakenly put the finished poison in the wrong flask. While it was not on purpose, he hadn’t even noticed the other advisor drink the concoction until sometime far after the lesson.

Hera, Poseidon, Zeus

Hera - Views on Marriage

Rana does not have any plans to marry. She believes marriage should be for love, but does not know if she will be capable to become attached to anyone other than family.

Poseidon - Consumed in a Task

She once found herself practicing a dance routine over and over again in an isolated field. There were some movements within the dance that she wanted to perfect, but she knew she already had them down. Even as she laid down on the ground and stared at the sky she couldn’t remember why it was she insisted on going out there and practicing. Perhaps someone angered her and she wanted to work off the stress? Or she just didn’t want to return to her home yet. Once she was moving, the reason didn’t matter.

Zeus - Hypocritical Action

If someone ever hurt Miraj, she wouldn’t stop until he told her who it was that caused him harm. Then she would find them and cause them even worse pain. However, if he was to ever ask her who harmed her she wouldn’t tell him. She would shrug it off and tell him that she didn’t know the people. That it was too dark to see their faces. Or that it didn’t matter because they were in even worse shape than she was. She doesn’t see how it would benefit him if he knew who hurt her.

Achilles, Antigone, Hephaestus

Achilles - Greatest Flaw

The constant feel of dread she would get when people called her by her name. This feeling mostly happened when she was younger and after she was informed of what the meaning of her name was. It is a flaw that she had become aware of years ago and has taken steps to overcome. Her name rarely bothers her anymore. One of the older maids who took care of her when she was younger often calls her by her middle name, Cassarah, despite her preference for Ereshkigal.

Antigone - The Bravest Thing

Ereshkigal felt brave when she called her advisor out on date being wrong during a history lesson. He was ten years off on the date when one of the wars between Earths and Airs ended. She could never tell whether he was surprised that she was correct, or that she had the audacity to correct him.

Hephaestus - Skilled Craft

While she has been taught embroidery, she is far more skilled at lace-making. She finds it ironic since she doesn’t have a need for lace in Aestelta.

whoops here have a third. ✿

✿ - A Happy Memory

When Nyphestos gifted her Tanith, a personalized bow. It wasn’t as though the bow she had before had wasn’t fit for a lady, but this one was different. It suited her better, and not just because she was beginning to outgrow the old one. The body was made out of pale wood and had intricate designs carved into it. If she was not royalty, she might have jumped up and down from joy. However, she was a lady and thanked her brother properly: if he would like to be there to witness the first draw.

☂ღ

☂ - Weather

Constant hot weather tends to give Ereshkigal headaches. Having lived in a cold climate all her life she can overheat very easily, especially if the sun is beating down on her.

ღ - A Crush

Although she would never admit it, she was rather fond of the young boy Taner. Even if it was just for the small moment they shared throwing snowballs.

✚➷ϡ

Send ✚ for one of my muse’s prized possessions

There is a small, delicately-enameled bangle bracelet that he found dropped on a path in one of the more castle gardens as a teenager, which he has kept ever since.  It’s special to him not for whom it belonged to, as he was never able to find out, but because of the fox motif that adorns it.  While House Voltaire has its own symbology that he must partake in, he’s privately considered the fox to be his personal sigil since he was a young boy.

He carries the bangle around, sometimes, particularly at state events, where it can be slipped into an inner pocket of one of his many layers of clothing and carried with none the wiser.  

Send ➷ for a sports headcanon.

Though he very much enjoys both riding and archery, Julian dislikes hunting, other than falconry.  

Send ϡ for a sleep headcanon.

Julian has very seldom in his life kept a “normal” sleep schedule.  He shifts back and forth over a period of days or weeks from sleeping only perhaps an hour or three a night to several days of needing nine or ten hours.  He’s lately had to adjust the long part of his irregular cycle, thanks to the demands of preparing for the crown, and while he’s managed it well over all, those close to him have noticed that he has suddenly developed a very strong liking for tea, where he did not particularly care for it before.

✿ϡღ

✿ - A happy memory

Often times, when Sellech was a child, he would be taught various subjects by the King’s advisors. However, on rare occasions he would be taught along side the young Nyphestos. They weren’t allowed to interact too much while the lesson was going on, but he always enjoyed the company of someone his age.

ϡ - Sleep

When he does sleep, it is often a deep sleep. Because of this, he has a tendency to occasionally talk in his sleep.At times he may mumble something that he was thinking about before falling unconscious, such as something he overheard or a task that needed to be completed. Very rarely does he mumble something nonsensical.

ღ - A crush

He doesn’t really have a crush. At least not one that he would ever speak of. He is to be the advisor of the next King, he doesn’t have the time to get involved with anyone.
