fear, guilt, hate and hide for Orion and Hauyne for the ask game👀
fear: What is your OC's greatest fear? What do they do when confronted with it? Are they open with their fear, or do they hide it away?
Hauyne
- fears being abandoned and left alone
- will suffer from a complete mental and emotional breakdown when confronted with it,
- would rather die than admit she has this fear
Orion
- fears the death of their loved ones
- will do everything in their power to make sure it never happens, even if it meant going against their own principles
- somewhat? only those they trust know about this fear
guilt: What is your OC guilty about? How do they handle their guilt? Do they try to avoid guilt, or do they accept it?
Hauyne
- guilty that she was powerless to stop the cycles from even happening, having to lose the friends she once knew and getting to know different versions of them
- that's the neat part, she doesn't. she just pushes herself forward without even giving herself the time she needed to process them
- she neither avoids nor accepts it. if it happens, it happens, and she'll just carry on with her life while doing her best not to let it get in the way of her mission. even if it'll usually come back and bite her later down the line.
Orion
- guilty that they ended up breaking their promise to their mother to protect their little sister, even if it was beyond their control
- they handle it by taking in anyone who's younger than them and assumes an older sibling role to them, pretty much becoming a mother hen to them and ensuring that they are well-cared for
- they try to accept it, but it's hard. they still want to find their sister one day, and make it known that they never stopped looking for her no matter how long it took
hate: What does your OC hate? Why? How do they act towards the object of their hatred?
Hauyne
- she hates Garufans in general
- blames them for being responsible for the events of the main plot, particularly the cycles since karma is one of their creations in a last-ditch attempt to save themselves from extinction
- also hates them for the genocide of her kind, as well as being the reason why they've faded into obscurity with their numbers scattered, never to recover even after millennia, and indirectly causing the extinction of her family branch
- will treat them with cold suspicion in general, but if they've proven themselves to be a loyal friend she'll gradually warm up to them
Orion
- hates people who mistreat their family members for whatever reason, or cruelty in general
- mostly a case of "good cannot understand evil", since they themself are incapable of such cruel acts even if they tried
- also because it reminded them of their own abusive father, who treated them very poorly as he couldn't accept his eldest child's identity and that they could not live up to his expectations
- they will react with uncharacteristic anger towards the abuser, not trusting them to be around the victim without it escalating into an assault
hide: What does your OC hide? Why do they hide it?
Hauyne
- she hides the fact that she isn't human
- due to past negative experiences where she was mistreated for being born the way she is, she's learned to hide the parts of herself that give away her true nature in an effort to masquerade as an ordinary human girl
- there's also a lot of things she hides from other people, since she's a secretive and reserved person by nature
Orion
- hides their own insecurities and fears
- believes that they have to be a strong, unshakeable pillar for their loved ones and therefore they must not show any weakness
- another reason behind that was due to their father abusing them for showing vulnerability, as it is not something a "true man" would do
- they've gotten better at it over time, with some help from their friends and loved ones
