How would Phenir feel if mc found him scary/intimidating?

Intimidating: He would be like a confused puppy. He wouldn't understand how anyone, that wasn't his enemy, could think that of him. His sister he could understand, but him? He's the picture perfect definition of a golden retriever. He wouldn't be hurt that much. Sure his heart would ache that you reacted the way you did when in his presence. But that would just mean he would have to spend more time with you. Showing you that he wasn't so bad once you got to know him.

Scary: Now if you were actually scared of him? His heart would absolutely shatter. First, because he truly believes that he's found someone he could connect with in you. And he wanted nothing more than to be your friend. Second, you're one of his creations and knowing that you feared him? It would break his heart even more. He wouldn't know what to do with himself when he was around you. He would practically shrink in on himself whenever you gazed at him. Seeing the fear in your eyes and body language. He would try to be as small as he possibly could when in your presence. He wouldn't want to upset you more than you already were.

Revian is pretty scary.. how would she react if MC was scared of her ? 👀

Revian's scary? I wasn't aware of that and I don't think she is either.

The reaction depends entirely upon if the MC is actually frightened, or scared rather, of her or just intimidated.

If the MC was intimidated by her she would try to tone down her presence when around you. Trying to not startle you if she can help it. Working with you to make you feel more comfortable in her presence. Of course, if you're not helping neither will she. As she believes that relationships should be equal. So if she's putting in 80 and you're putting in 20? That won't fly with her, at all.

Now if you're scared of her... like actually shrinking when her gaze turns towards you. About to have a panic attack type of deal, then she would be completely heartbroken if it's someone she has grown to care about. She would try to put as much distance as she could from you. Not wanting the bitterness of being in your presence to well up. She has taught herself to control her emotions, and she wasn't about let your dismissal of her harm her in any way. Even though when your gaze meets hers and she can practically taste the fear rolling off of you... she tries to ignore the breaking of her heart. The big bad wolf isn't always bad, after all.
