YOU KNOW THE ASK I JUST SENT YOU ON MAIN? PRETEND I SENT IT HERE
The fact I had to reference my ancient texts (my discord server) to try and remember if I had lore down for this or not.
I think if you asked him directly his honest answer would be very much that he doesn't really get the appeal and express a lot of curiosity for how people indulge a kink like that in their lives. Because from HIS perspective, he's not into the more direct and specific definition of swallowing/being swallowed whole or the more violent methods when we're talking about hard vore.
All this said... at least a couple of his partners (...mostly Isgarren, i refuse to believe his long term situation with Eparch didn't do insane things to that seers brain) are into things that flirt with the concept? They're very into the idea he could tear them to shreds if he wanted to. It's pretty fun playing the big scary dragon wrapping it's jaws around another person with the threat of consumption. That kind of play feels very vore-alligned to me at the very least.
And...the aspects of like mouth/maw play have become a new thing for him. Vloxx likes poking and proding him like a lab experiment and fucking about with this guys weird dragon mouth is no exception. Nyr is pretty aware that his motives are horny rather than scientific but the actions have a oddly reverant quality that tickles his brain in just the right places. He might stop if he calls him out on it and that wouldn't be much fun.
All in all he's pretty chill about it and way more into sub-aspects of it than he realises? And is pretty happy to indulge a partner because this man gets off to pleasing other people so much it's kinda silly.
(All he asks is that people don't shove their entire person up in his mouth thats a little too dangerous for his liking because at that point we're getting a little too real. He's a little... concerned of his self control as of the most recent canon events.
He is likely to entertain anything less than that and probably have fun with it!)
I keep wondering if Sebb actually has a degree or if he turned in his thesis and the college staff examining it were just like oooooh wow yikes we can't give this our stamp of approval yeah no bye. And the Inquest just swooped in to be like "we have no standards you're in. in fact we love how your research is about enacting impossible amounts of cruelty on animals And people. here's infinity gold and your own krewe." and the rest is History
I bet he was deeply ostracized in precollege for being a little weirdo too, to the degree that he probably unsettled his teachers even. Some kind of early intervention would've saved this man
btw sending u another ✒ but like for vloxx so ur forced to talk about someone else. bye
I'm doing this one out of order just to break up the Sebb . if u can believe it
I know jokes have already been made (by the devs) about Vloxx having a Patrick Bateman-esque skincare routine but I feel like he truly does have that kind of relationship with his body where it's like a machine he's rotely (and meticulously) maintaining. I just know this man is eating nothing but soylent and staring blankly at the gym wall while lifting weights. He might treat himself to a single episode of an NPR podcast or a brief symphony listen during this like he's microdosing joy or something
I hc that he doesn't really want to think of himself as a person so much as a tool honed towards whatever wacko Cultural Disruption he has planned for us. I say 'want' here because I feel like that's breaking down a little now that he's met the Commander, who Is a real flesh and blood person with their own interiority and opinions that don't necessarily align with his in the way that he was hoping.
It's almost like he can't square the thought of someone like the Comm, who is wildly successful at what they do, having a rich interior life and strong emotional core that serve as the main source of their drive and power. I feel that it downright puzzles him and that there's a great deal he's having to rationalize right now.
Um sry this kind of became a rant. We keep having to do the first Vloxx instance for rp reasons and like has anybody noticed how he smiles so sweetly when he first sees us? Do you think he had to memorize his gay little speech?? was he trembling with excitement like a pomeranian being shown a milk bone when he started to hear screaming and shouting outside his compound ?? Yay hooray
ikk + keto: 12 i need to know what theyre like just walking around casually
+ 15 for literally anyone it applies to
5.) How is their relationship with the concept of violence? Do they view it as a necessary evil, avoid inflicting it where possible, or even enjoy it? /// As Inquisitor Inza's handler, Haffa has had to do a lot of compartmentalizing and self-justification when it comes to violence. Functionally, he's the one killing, torturing, and otherwise mangling his metakrewemates from the safety of a desk with Inza only acting as his proxy. So there's this layer of dehumanization and abstraction going on that's inherit to all people whose job it is to hit a big red button that says "HURT SOMEBODY NOT PRESENTLY IN MY FIELD OF VISION WHO I WILL NEVER MEET." When it comes to more in-person violence, however, he's a bit more mixed. He's a neurosurgeon, so he's not exactly squeamish -- but I think if he had to shoot somebody in self-defense he would scream and cry and throw up.
6.) Do they have a guilty conscience? How do they cope with or personally reconcile the continuous stress and horror? /// I would say that Haffa frequently feels guilty and ashamed of what he does, although I'm not really certain whether he'd be able to articulate those emotions, or correctly assign their source. He does a lot of self-talk to cope. These guys are probably all assholes -- everybody in the Inquest is, right? Compared to these freakshows I'm normal. I'm good. Over the years the efficacy of this has started to wane a bit.
1.) Have they been an Inquest loyalist since the start, or did they defect from another faction? Is there a risk they'll defect away from the Inquest in the future? (If already defected: If it were possible, would they go back?) /// Vetra had a very brief tenure at the College of Synergetics as a neuropsych professor before being poached by an Inquest recruiter. She quickly rose in the ranks from a researcher deployed to give expert advice for interrogations to being an Inquisitor herself, then High Inquisitor. Not even the Arcane Eye would approve of her current methodology, so she has little incentive to return to taking paychecks from the Council. Although she sees her relationship with the Inquest as more practical than ideological, she would need a cataclysmic shift to happen to be anything but a loyal and obedient employee.
7.) "Fun" one: What's their uniform like? Is it a generic-issued uniform, or custom tailored? Are there any features built into it that assist with their job? /// Vetra's uniform is black siamoth leather with metal fittings -- including her signature helm, which is a custom design made especially for her. Its many lenses assist in her investigations, with each one calibrated to give different biometric feedback.
10.) How do they feel towards Inquest leadership? (Optional: How do they feel towards Kudu and Kuda?) /// Like many Inquest, Vetra is cautiously excited about the current direction in which the metakrewe is going. She finds Vloxx intelligent, well-spoken, and competent, with this last trait being one she finds important above all else in a leader. A once Kudu loyalist, Vetra became mildly disillusioned by his hubristic, messy downfall, and feels that Kuda has done nothing but squander what remains of his legacy. This isn't an opinion that she'd openly voice, however.
12.) What's their life like outside of the Inquest? Do they blend in with society well, or are they flagrantly a member of the metakrewe? /// I feel like despite it all Ikk has to be living an impossibly normal life outside the metakrewe. You know this man is like, going to farmer's markets and library book clubs and gardening like his day job doesn't involve cutting people up (mostly consensually). He doesn't wear the colors outside of work and is very affable, so people probably assume he's just Necromancer Weird and not Inquest Weird.
12.) What's their life like outside of the Inquest? Do they blend in with society well, or are they flagrantly a member of the metakrewe? /// Keto isn't as cozycore as his partner Ikk but he's also probably not easily placeable as Inquest when he's off the clock, either. Like Ikk, he's not terribly ideologically driven and has other hobbies. He's Very into alternative fashion and body modification and reads more as "some kind of goth" than "Inquest flunky." When he's not at work he enjoys horror vids (both Asuran and Canthan), collecting music, and preserving/pinning insects.
15.) Were they involved with any of the canon GW2 events that involved the Inquest-- Thaumanova, Crucible of Eternity, Sorrow's Embrace, Rata Primus, etc? (Optional: How'd they escape when the Commander rolled in?) /// Prior to being Inquest Biotechnics Division's overseer, Vahnn was stationed in Rata Primus in a supervisory role. Through what he describes as "sheer happenstance" (or "knowing the right people" when he's had enough wine), he was able to evacuate before the city fully succumbed to Joko's forces. Although he tends to smugly deflect when asked about his experience, his peers can't help but note how the city cube's horrific end changed him.
15.) Were they involved with any of the canon GW2 events that involved the Inquest-- Thaumanova, Crucible of Eternity, Sorrow's Embrace, Rata Primus, etc? (Optional: How'd they escape when the Commander rolled in?) /// Maxx was also stationed at Rata Primus -- not in a leadership role, but as an Inquisitor. He wasn't quite as "lucky" as his cohort Vahnn, and was not successfully pulled out of the Isles until a good few days after the Commander penetrated the city. This was due in no small part to his own efforts to get employees to safety, rather than evacuating when his peers did. The entire experience was so rattling that he petitioned Inquest leadership to "retire" him to a position where he could manage others from a desk closer to Rata Sum. This is how he came to be Vahnn's second in command at IBD, where he maintains his krewe members' unwavering admiration and support.
hi!! will you consider holding another art party sometime? i missed yesterday's but it looked really fun!!
Absolutely! This one went over super well and tons of people were asking about more of them in the future so I'll definitely be making these a monthly thing, and hopefully now that others have an idea of how such events can/will go they'll be inspired to host their own at times that work for them! 👀👀👀
