(Rowan belongs to @sanriosratz)

Inspired by that one interview with Pedro Pascal and Oscar Isaac.

[During the press release for "Hell's Secrets"]

Rowan: Hi, I'm Rowan Brady.

Patrick: Hi, I'm Patrick Torres-Moran.

Both: and we're doing a [Insert company here] complete interview-!

[Patrick pulls Rowan's hoodie over his face]

Rowan: -iewwww-!

[The two laugh]

Rowan, reading: "Who does... Patrick Torres-Moran... look like?"

Patrick: I get Oscar Isaac... often.

Rowan: oh-! [Starts laughing] I remember who you look like!

Patrick: who's that?

Rowan: that muppet, I told you about.

Patrick, cracking up: What muppet?

Rowan: the-the-the Eagle. The grumpy Eagle.

Patrick, trying not to smile: malo...

Does Patrick like being cared for when he's sick, or does he prefer to soldier on through the day?

Patrick tries to soldier through when he's sick (bless him), but...

...he gets really loopy when he's unwell.

("When did we get a polar bear?" *pointing at Octavian, who is wearing a sweater for once* "*Sad Octavian Noises*")

Which leads Ciero to tuck him into bed, and keep him all comfy.

Ciero, age 11: Wuh-what's the matter?

Patrick, also 11: I think, I, I th-, I think I like you.

Ciero: Well I like you too, Patrick.

Patrick: You do?!

Ciero: Well yeah!

Patrick: You like like me?

Ciero: Sure, I like like you a lot lot. [laughs]

Someone: *pushes Ciero into a locker at school*

Patrick, getting ready for his fifth detention that month: ¡¿Cómo te atreves a hablarle así?! Te destriparé como a un pez si vuelves a hacer esa mierda, ¿me oyes? tu garganta, cortada. Mierda. tú.

If Patrick did ever reconnect with one (or some) of his siblings, how do you think their relationship would develop? Would they be close, or would their relationship be constantly strained? I'm curious about that idea of one of his sibling's reaching out after filming of 'Hell's Secrets'

See, I feel it's better that they don't keep in touch, because... well, his siblings didn't look out for each other, unlike the Windroes.

It's this sort of contrast wherein the Torres Moran kids all drifted apart, while the Windroes remained tightly knit.

It helps show Patrick moving past the unhealthy ideas he grew up with, and finding himself in a better way.

Is/are there anyone he would want to kill? Could he do it? (bonus: could he get away with it? I like to think 'Hell's Secrets' taught him a thing or two, haha!)

...Alice.

...and his mother (if she wasn't already dead!).

And he could not get away with it. He would be either too angry and make a scene/cause a disturbance, or he'd chicken out and run away.

[eldritch-hall-asylum]

Is there someone in Patrick's life that he cares about more than himself? Why?

Well, my first obvious answer would be Ciero - but that's a bit too easy...

...so, I'm gonna say Bentley.

Bentley isn't Patrick's kid by blood. Hell, he didn't know they existed for the first decade and a bit of his life, but...

...as soon as Bentley came into Ciero's custody, he just...

...he saw a bit of himself in this kid, a scared, broken kid that just needed some help.

And he was willing to give them that.

What are some of Patrick’s interests, things he likes and dislikes, stuff like that?

Patrick really likes the taste of garlic.

Which is a shame because he can't kiss his wife after eating some... 😧

He also hates the feeling of wool. Too itchy (once, he wore just a wool sweater, and he had to take it off after like 5 minutes - not that ciero minded 😳).

He loves it when the chickens sit on his lap, because they're so soft and warm. He used to be able to hold one in each hand when they were babies. But now, he cannot.

Patrick hates the smell of vodka.

He loves going on the treadmill at the gym, because he can just put some music on and run for like half an hour.
