🗨️🎧🧥🎭

🗨️ A word or expression that makes you want to tear your hair out whenever you hear it used?

hm. well, i used to really hate "tunes" because of icarus' dad. i've since gotten over that. i'm not a fan of any kind of unsanitary terms because, well. ocd. but for just for kind of silly stuff? uh... i am one of those people driven crazy by "atm machine", "pin number", etc etc. i know it's not important but i can't help hating it.

🎧 A song that's been driving you up the wall recently (and not in a good way)!

ugh, that stupid "everywhere i go" song by the league of extraordinary misogynists.

sorry.

i meant hollywood undead.

someone in the system put it in a playlist as a joke, and now it's stuck in my head.

🧥 A clothing item, fashion trend or "aesthetic" you would rather die than put on your body.

🍒🧡📀 for elias

🍒 What kind of things do they expect from their relationships? Does this differ between platonic relationships and romantic ones? Is your OC “demanding” or a door mat? What kinds of things do people expect from them in a relationship?

elias doesn't really know what to expect from a relationship. he's never been in one, and never really seen how a romantic relationship operates. until age 16, he's living with an abusive single father and his twin. (well, his older sisters were there until he was 11ish as well.) he winds up being more of a doormat than demanding, as he's not really confident in what he is and is not allowed to do or ask for in a relationship and he's deathly afraid of being left alone. he'll be whatever and whoever he needs to be...

🧡 Who is your OC’s favourite person? Why is this person the top of their list and have they actually met them (an idol or rolemodel or celeb can be someone’s favourite after all!).

ooooo that's a very good question!! hmm.... well initially it's his sister brigitte, and then laurel. i still think laurel is the person he feels the safest around, because she's the first person he met after leaving his father's house who treated him like a full person and helped him deal with his eating disorder. eve is also one of his favorite people, but their relationship is a little more fraught. laurel is definitely his BFF.

📀 How easy is it to shock your OC? To confuse them? To lie to them, to manipulate them? How are they with feelings of trust? Can your OC be trusted?

elias is.... a mixed back. he trusts too easily. it isn't difficult in the least to manipulate him. he'll believe anything you tell him. but can he himself be trusted? ...no. he spends a lot of time absolutely fucking up, and even after he's relatively gotten his shit together with regards to, like, his life and job and whatnot, he will still pretend that things are fine when they aren't. he's afraid of being alone.
