Arctic - Do you prefer warm or cool weather? Lilac - How would someone win you over? Pearl - What do you look for in a romantic partner?
Hi my Love! :D How are you doing? Hope you are doing well! <3
Brick - What are some things you dislike?
➤ Bryant: pppfffffffff the list is LONG, gorgeous Bastet. I honestly don’t know where to start…
➤ Celestine: I am the same with Bryant. The list is too long.
Tangerine - What is your favorite fruit?
➤ Bryant: Oh man… that’s sort of difficult as I love all the fruits. But if I HAD to pick a favorite, Grapes. Seedless Grapes.
➤ Celestine: Hmm… since I bake a lot, there isn’t a fruit I don’t use to make a pastry with. But if I had to choose, Raspberries.
Dandelion - Would you consider yourself stubborn?
➤ Bryant: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! XD
➤ Celestine: What is the matter with you?
➤ Bryant: We are both stubborn as fuck okay! xD
➤ Celestine: Yes. We are both stubborn. More me than him.
➤ Bryant: I say it’s even! xD
Arctic - Do you prefer warm or cool weather?
➤ Celestine: Cool weather.
Lilac - How would someone win you over?
➤ Bryant: Like, to be my friend? or be on friendly terms with me? Or gain my trust?
➤ Celestine: I guess, all of those?
➤ Bryant: Be true to yourself. When I see that you mean what you say and are true to your beliefs, that you stand firm and fight for your dreams and what you believe, gains points with me.
➤ Celestine: With me its… a little difficult as I don’t let people in my life. Its hard to say what can win me over as I don’t fall easily with pretty faces and adorable gestures. And it’s really hard for me to say what can win me over as I am a very hard person to get to know and to allow someone into my space. And I do it, because it’s best that way. For the few that have been able to get past that barrier, that wall I place, is because they have earned it. They have earned my trust. My loyalty. My love. My attention. My affection.
➤ Bryant: She really is more difficult than I am, to win over. If you really want to “win her over,” you have to seek it. You have to want it. Want to be her friend. Part of her space. And not give up on her. Which if you think about it, it’s kind of interesting for LHIS as she is the one that seeks Gustav’s attention and, to “win him over” not the other way around.
➤ Celestine: Well that’s different.
➤ Celestine: Because I licked him and therefore he is mine. ;3
➤ Bryant: Ewww! Gross! XD
➤ Celestine: No but if I did, he would run for the hills. *laughs softly* Especially since he doesn’t like me either from the beginning. LOL. Ah, Moonlight. I fucking love you. *blows kisses to him*
But, really, that is different. It’s true that there is something in his person that intrigues me but in truth, I wasn’t trying to “win him over.” What started that “win him over” was his trauma, that had an effect on me. And that is how all of the persistence started. But it was unintentional. Much like everything else in my life that happens: It’s unintentional.
To see a grown man, who isn’t afraid of anyone or practically anything, to suddenly want to run away when there is a storm, spoke to me because I understand what its like to have something you want to hide from. With the exception that I don’t know what to do with myself. He can at least drown out the storms while being indoors by playing music, drawing, meditating, working on his own projects, there is so much he can do, even though he will still be nervous but at least he isn’t like me where I can’t even stay inside a room, even with windows, as I feel suffocated. Trapped. Caged. But I can’t be outside either without looking over my shoulder. That feeling that I am going to be captured again. That I am being hunted down. It’s a terrible feeling to be afraid. And that was the first step to wanting to tell him, in my own way, that, it’s going to be okay. That he could count on me, difficult as it was at first due to our dislike of each other, I meant it, in my own way, that I was there for him. I was being sincere in my care for him. I had a need to tell him what no one has ever told me before from my own traumas. Because I sympathized with him, much like I did with Jessica. And I guess that’s how I “won him over.” How he “won me over,” I honestly have no clue. It just happened.
There isn’t much of a difference how I got to “win over” with Gustav, Jessica and Akeelah. With Jessica, because I got to work closely with her, I got to see her thoughts weren’t so different from mine, however on some aspects we did clash a lot. But once she saw that I trusted her. Her way of doing things. That I didn’t question her. Especially after that mission with Toombs, it united us. It bonded us. And I got to talk to her in a personal level. She saw behaviors in me, that were similar to hers and her need to make sure I was okay, is what made me open up to her as I also saw the similar behaviors we have and my need to make sure, SHE was okay is what caused us to open up to each other. We got to know that we were not so different and she understood me, as I understood her, in a level no one else could.
With Akeelah, it was hard to work with someone who barely opens up at all. But she showed compassion on a truly… emotional moment for me and opened up to me which allowed me to open up to her. It started that friendship. That bonding moment. She understands loss, much like Jessica. Something that was once home, now gone. And seeing that she too, understood that, is what had me caring for her very deeply. Because she too is looking for a home. Despite it all, the three of us, are looking for where we belong again. To find that “family” feeling. And that’s what makes me open up to them. Have them close. Because I don’t want them to feel like they don’t belong. I want them to feel like they do belong. That I am there for them. That they can count on me. For anything.
The want to help, is what made me persistent with Gustav. When I see Gustav, I see a man who really, is not afraid. Funny as it sounds, I love that about him because it got under my skin that he wasn’t afraid of me. Or of anything or anyone. I couldn’t intimidate him. I couldn’t put fear in him, no matter how many times I gave him the murder glare or even threatened him. And he has seen how brutal I can be in the field. He has seen me pissed, enraged. Lose control. And that still doesn’t get him afraid. He knows I can kill him in a heartbeat and that doesn’t scare him. That’s incredible. He is challenging me without saying anything at all. How can I not be intrigued? How can I not want to know more? How can I not be curious of a man like that? of a person like that? But then a storm happens and he becomes a bundle of nerves and anxiety whom you want to protect. You want to hold him and tell him, that its okay. That you are there for him. That nothing will harm him. That he is safe.
It… grows more when I find out he grew up alone. And the horrible shit he went through… no one should go through what he did. No one. I may be a cold hearted bitch, but what Jessica, Akeelah, Gustav and you, Bryant, went through, I don’t wish that on anyone. I want him to know that he isn’t alone. That i’m there. That I am not going to abandon him. That he is safe with me and can count on me. For anything that he needs. A storm happens, he can come to my room and stay there or he can call me to keep him company as a distraction and we can watch movies or listen to music or whatever his fears are, he can count on my support to help him get better and the same goes for Jessica, Akeelah and you, Bryant.
…Never in a million years would I have thought he would be more than my friend. More than my best friend. *laughs softly* Life is indeed, full of remarkable surprises.
It truly takes a… unique individual to get me that close. To touch my heart. Garrus, Ashley, Wrex, Jeff, Tali, Grunt, Miranda, Jack, Akeelah, Jessica, Gustav and you, Bryant, all have your own ways that gotten into my heart. That I allowed to get that close. And each and every one of you have a different way to obtain my affection, my attention, my love. To see you all as my family. Being supportive, honest, respectful, sincere, is how I feel I “won them over.” They can trust me. They have my loyalty. How you all “won me over,” I guess it’s pretty much the same. But in general, i’m a very difficult person to “win over.” And as you can see, it’s different with each person but also similar and it has to be impactful to me. It has to speak to me in a very deep level.
➤ Bryant: Geai Bleu… it’s going to be okay.
➤ Celestine: Thanks, Bryant, but I will be fine. I am always fine.
Pearl - What do you look for in a romantic partner?
➤ Bryant: Oh boy… what do I look for in a romantic partner… well, respect is a must. Honesty and sincerity with yourself and with me. Trust is an absolute big one. I have been cheated on so, you truly have to be honest with me about your intentions. If you only want casual or more than that. Otherwise, I will not go further than casual hangings because I am… afraid of being made a fool again. And i’m tired of being made a fool. Of someone coming into my life only to pay me back for all i’ve done for someone with stabbing me in the back. Betrayal I cannot take. It’s a deal breaker. If i’m not in your future, if you cannot see us together, please don’t waste my time. And don’t waste yours. I rather be alone then with bad company. I also look for similar tastes, not just complete opposites. Don’t want to bump heads all the time. It’s interesting to have different tastes and views but if we truly are opposites in everything, it won’t work out. Don’t expect me to bend backwards all the time for you. We should both be able to compromise. I am a hard person sometimes and too stubborn and I don’t change for anyone. I am who I am and if you want to be with me, you have to accept me the way I am. If I do change is because its truly something bad that I need to change. That even I know it has affected me and the relationship in such a drastic way, then I will change things around about myself. But if its something trivial, like I need to stop cursing, or something like that, then no. I wont. And that’s all I can think about, really.
➤ Celestine: To be honest, I don’t go looking for a romantic partner so I don’t much have what i’m looking for. Romance, the whole girlfriend, wife thing, is not something that crosses my mind. It just happened to me. Falling in love, was beyond my control. What I expect is respect in our relationship. Honesty and sincerity. Trust is a big one. I need to be able to trust my partner in every sense of the word. That’s… it. I’m not looking for much but to be treated the same way you want to be treated. Treat me like shit, I will see you in hell. Treat me with respect, honesty, patience and love, I will give you the same. And even more. Because when I fall, I fall hard. And I give you my all.
LOL with these questions, you got Celestine to speak more. xD And this time, she didn’t mind explaining. xD I guess she is in a good mood today! xD
Thank you for asking love! 💓
