Odette has definitely has never had much sexual experience (outside of maybe a sloppy First Kiss) due to being in a Circle where everyone knows each other and is being watched at all times, and also due to having a limited pool of options.

Jamie is definitely a virgin, not only because the concept of virtue was ingrained very deeply in his head being born a noble lady, but he was also too dysphoric to ever fool around with anyone who didn't know about his gender.

Cedric... I mean, can YOU imagine him getting any action? He's definitely kissed a girl or two but never really enjoyed it. He's still kind of in denial and a little ignorant regarding his own sexuality, so not a lot of experience there, either.

Harriet has a similar situation as Jamie; Victorian women were expected to be extremely chaste, so even things like extramarital kissing was HIGHLY frowned upon. She has absolutely no sexual experience.

Gregoir and Nero will be under a cut because their history involves mention of sexual assault.

Gregoir is probably the most experienced out of my muses. He was tortured by demons in every way imaginable, including with rape, and that was his first sexual experience. He sought out consensual encounters later to try to rewrite how he viewed sex, and enjoyed time spent with both men and women.

Nero is in the same boat as Gregoir. He's been touched inappropriately, maybe more in his time as a slave, but like Gregoir he intentionally went out of his way to experience sex in safer environments after he freed himself. He's less experienced, however, due to being a busy guy.

Green for Cedric @bushelofmuses

What’s something (or someone) they keep nurturing, even when it hurts?

His love for his sister and his forgiveness for what she did in her final hour. It'd be easy to blame her for what became of her and their parents. It'd be easy to say she was weak, or malicious–but the truth of the matter is that he loves her still, even though she's gone, and he knows that what happened was out of her control. No one should have to live with demons dogging their steps, waiting patiently for a lapse in judgement or strength. Least of all Agnes.

Red for Nero, Orange for Rain, and Yellow for Cedric

NERO: How far would they go for something (or someone) they love fiercely? As far as it takes. He would take a life, destroy something precious, go to any length–so long as he is not asked to betray his comrades.

RAIN: When was the last time your muse truly felt alive? For better or worse, Rain feels most alive when they're in combat or in danger. It's a natural byproduct of the adrenaline rush, of course, but more than that, they're in control of themself in those moments. Anything that happens to them is usually a result of their own actions. They prefer it that way.

CEDRIC: Who do they miss when the sun rises? His sister, Agnes. He lost her and the rest of his family to a demon that turned her into an abomination when he was around seventeen to eighteen years old. It was what made him want to become a templar in the first place. She was his best friend, his confidante, his most beloved person, and he misses her more than anything.
