questions about your character.
♣ - What is one thing that they find embarrassing? (About them, others, things in general)┃ ┄ ┅ Kouen generally doesn’t feel embarrassment. Flustered sure, but embarrassment, not really. That being said, he doesn’t handle nudity with much grace. He is a very conservative man, and sees it as dishonorable and lewd to show much skin, especially if it is a warrior who is doing so.
Romantic attraction / feelings is also one thing that tends to muss up his thoughts. Kouen doesn’t know what to do with them or how to react to them. While it doesn’t outright embarrass him to express these feelings, he generally keeps them to himself as he can never get them out quite right. ─ ━ ♚ │
✕ - How do they handle rejection?┃ ┄ ┅ With as much dignity and maturity as you’d expect from someone in Kouen’s position. If the other person wishes it, then he will remain in their previous relationship with little change. He easily understands why someone would reject him, and while it hurts to be rejected he would rather have gotten it off his chest than hidden the feelings deep down. ─ ━ ♚ │
☾- Are they prone to nightmares or dreamless sleep?┃ ┄ ┅ He has many nightmares, though they come in clusters and they don’t happen every night. Generally they are about his family dying or being hurt or leaving him. Fortunately his mind is fortified enough to handle these kinds of dreams, and the only indication that he had a nightmare is an increased heartbeat and alertness.
The most frightening nightmare he’s had is one where, after killing Hakuryuu, he hears Hakuyuu’s voice expressing disappointment in him. These are the only nightmares that have scared Kouen so much he wakes up with a jolt and with feelings of immense guilt. ─ ━ ♚ │
