🚑: Does your muse have any disabilities/impairments?
He doesn’t. However I have toyed with the idea once or twice...maybe a few more times on considering him being color blind to an instinct which could help explain his terrible sense of matching colors. Buuuuut I’ve left it alone.
👕: What is your muse’s fashion sense like?
Well, it’s not damn terrible as it once was when he was younger, but it still isn’t the best either. He still isn’t one who would happily conform to fashion trends as he seems them to be pretty dumb and rather have his own style though it can rather suck. He got some guidance during his time in Kalos, but still he does need a good shove in the right direction at times as he does love his purple and blacks. In most cases, he does try to dress in a somewhat relaxed style but one wouldn’t be surprised to find that he can easily switch over to a business casual type of attire. But don’t be fooled. He definitely didn’t pick out the outfit entirely by himself.

2. How much physical space do they use, active and at rest?
green naturally tries to make himself smaller (but still appear relaxed) unless he’s alone and somewhere comfortable, especially in crowded areas like in a bus bus or on the sidewalk.
at rest, green more or less follows the same pattern but allows himself to completely take up his allotted space when there isn’t anyone beside him. while active, it depends; he’ll minimize the space he takes up if hes running/walking and otherwise general movements, but tends to make himself appear bigger when playing sports or, in a rare case, getting himself into a fight.
14. What do they care deeply about? What kind of loyalties, commitments, moral codes, life philosophies, passions, callings, or spirituality and faith do they have? How do these tend to be expressed?
green doesn’t tend to need to make a clear picture of what his “code” is, nor does he outright say any of them unless asked directly. but some things he most certainly believes are:
whatever amount of trust you build with someone should be given wisely
ironically, that making a selfish effort for fame/power isn’t worth anything
communication is key in any relationship...
...but also respecting boundaries at the same time
anything you don’t do today can be done tomorrow
(as mentioned below) don’t do anything that doesn't bring change
18. What kind of person could they become in the future? What are some developmental paths that they could take, (best, worst, most likely?) what would cause them to come to pass*, and what consequences might they have? What paths would you especially like to see, and why?
i’ve always, always seen green as a person who stays in the kind of position he’s at right now: well known, but not enough to cause a disturbance; the best he can be at some things, but not everything. there, but never noticeably. the green now keeps his presence passive, and only attracts attention to himself when it’s absolutely necessary. (if applied to myself, i’d say it’s mediocre; for green, it’s a middle ground.) because of that, i’ve never thought about what could change him, for better or worse. there are, though, some things i’ve considered (and have maybe done before) having happen, like:
* i’m not exactly sure what this part of the question means, so i didn’t answer it.
+ = pos / - neg / ○ neutral/idk
- green continuing to support professor oak and pursue a career in pokemon biology. it’ll never happen, i guess, but if it were then green would most likely end up 200x worse than he is currently. after all, he’s always been aware that whatever he was trying to gain from it wouldn’t pull through, regardless of what the reason could be. going about it like it’s nothing would most likely, 110%, take its toll on him eventually, and even rising up to his grandfather’s own success wouldn’t change that. he’d basically be going against his own (+ his father’s) word of don’t do something if you know it won’t change anything. (i suppose that his and red’s reconciliation wouldn’t go as smoothly either. this kind of path would lead to isolation and a cold twist in personality (or sad, but anyway), and it would be much harder for him to correctly and openly express what he feels.)
○ green taking up a career in psychology / (forensic) anthropology immediately instead of going from the eventual transition from Gym Leader > either one of the two. i feel like him leaving his roots as a trainer (in a relative sense, anyways) would kind of be like...giving himself a fresh start? deleting all his contacts (and keeping red’s, just in case), making new ones, moving to some other city—some other region, worse case scenario; keeping himself where he is would feel suffocating, just like in canon. his leave here would probably be permanent though, since becoming a Gym Leader + rejuvenating his identity as a trainer isn’t so important. there wouldn’t be much to come back for. (of course, he’d still be open to contact Red/have Red contact him if it happened.)
+ / - the addition of blue/leaf in his canon. the only real reason i didn’t include her was because, to be honest, she deserves her own game. she deserves her own game. but some of it was also because i didn’t want all three relationships to be preset in some way. i’m not sure what would happen or how it’d work out, but blue would probably play a similar role to daisy’s; a mediator, generous support but also very stern guidance. having her around when daisy can’t be could offer a much longer sustained period of a friendly rivalry between herself and red + green, and maybe even have it stay that way. however, given the age of all of them, they’re probably more susceptible to the kinds of negative feelings green experiences. i can’t really say on what i’d think would happen, tbh.
27. What do they strongly like and dislike, in any category? Why?
i’m guessing “any category” really does mean “any category” and just list a few things without any sort of grouping (except + for like and - for dislike):
- criticism for his methods. everyone’s entitled to their own opinion but he absolutely hates it when someone tries to tell him his way of doing things isn’t right. he’s usually flexible when it’s a professional/business matter, but is already stretched thin when it happens.
- excessively loud noises or people. his ears are kind of sensitive but he just generally doesn’t like it when people yell or shout for no reason, or when someone turns a fan on and it’s one of those creaky-squeaky ones.
+++ physical touch (hand holding, back/arm/shoulder touch, ruffling hair...), but only with people he’s comfortable with. it helps with easing his nerves and provides general comfort.
+ dance! i know i don’t talk about it as often as i should but it’s a good way for him to move around without actually having to go outside...it keeps him fit and also proves to be a good way at letting out whatever he’s feeling when talking doesn’t fit the bill. (it’s also a good way to make friends, in his case.)
