So about our dear young master...
One of the best things about Cale Henituse (just one cause let's admit that Young Master Silver Shield is ✨s u p e r i o r✨) is that he may seem constantly calm, collected, and has a resting bitch face, he isn't emotionless.
When you see other characters that are portrayed as calm, they are almost always emotionless, apathetic and dense too. But not Cale. He admits to feeling emotions all the time and is actually very empathic (although he is a bit dense with everybody's love for him). He seems to be able to easily understand the emotions that everybody else may feel from his actions and he acts according to not only what he thinks is best for his people but also what they feel about any given situation.
He is so naturally nurturing to the point that he usually removes himself from the equation unless he is can be a solution to the problem even though he always says that he hates pain and needless effort. I think the reason he always contradicts himself is because he has such deep thoughts about the world (especially because he is a person who remembers everything). He treasures his people so much because to him, they are all he has. Even though he loves collecting money and having material things, he is far from materialistic. Those things don't give him joy, it's the thought that his people are happy, safe and full and that their future (by extension his) is happy and secure.
