in his stuff u mention how he feels about zaun and whatnot, have you ever gone into detail about his feelings / relationship with zaun before and after leaving it?

ANON ASK

I'm so pleased about this ask! Robin's feelings about Zaun are mentioned in his lore page, which I'm revising as of now, but the feeling remains the same. He also doesn't get to speak about it outloud very often as he tends to not only avoid the subject, but not many people have asked him about it. So in drabbles and writing it only pops up as a momentary thought rather than something he can sit down and explain. I think even if he did try to explain it, he'd struggle.

Robin grew up extremely impoverished in the Entresol level of Zaun, and for the longest time, he's held nothing but dread for the city. He has always had a deep rooted feeling that Zaun was a beast that would eventually kill him, and it is actually the driving force around why he worked so hard in order to be accepted at the Academy in Piltover.

Upon being born in the Entresol Level, it is not difficult to see how one could quickly grow uncertain about their own existence. Leaning over the edge of the Sump, the denizens faced threats from above and below. Disease, suffocating smog, chembarons attacking businesses and selling children off for profit, the wardens and enforcers seemingly snuffing out any sense of individualism that could lead to chaos. How horrible to try and make a home in a place where everything seems to want you dead. 

Piltover was a very beautiful distraction for Robin and one that he actively tried to keep himself in, he was terrified of returning back down to Zaun, with its smog filled air and instability. Granted this paranoia pushed him to become extremely stressed and he often burnt himself out, because he was not just trying to get out of Zaun himself, but to give his siblings, Wren and Linnet, a better future. It should also be noted that while Robin doesn't like Zaun -- he went into medicinal studies in order to help Zaunites, and loved the people that he grew up around. He adored his family, the children he used to play with, and how, despite being wrought with violence, many people would choose to help eachother instead of hurting eachother.

A chance to push back the ever-rising fears that occupy the deepest corners of the human brain. To be free from lack of control, physical vulnerability, and the unknown nature of death.

Academia provided an escape route from the anxieties of impoverishment, and Robin quickly took it, investing his time and energy into his work as long as he could; simply to avoid walking back into the horrific underbelly of a city he learned to despise. 

His impoverishment also was the leading cause of the gas leak that spilled into his home, his parents and himself both slaved away at work but there was always something to pay for that eventually lead to the foundation of their very home crumbling. When Robin found them and came upon all of this, his brain kept relaying the same message to him, Zaun had killed them. The city itself was rotted and it was punishing him, as now even though he moved permanently into Piltover he felt all of those fears on a constant: lack of control, physical vulnerability, and the unknown nature of death. This culminated in a mental breakdown which allowed a Demon into his nest, posing as a friend, and he was too riddled with grief to really process what A/Bel was--an inhuman parasite that manipulated a vulnerable child. So, he ended up working in Zaun once more, wickedness belongs in a dark pit after all, but he kept his private life and living quarters up in PIltover due to the paranoia of another leak, or worse. However, ultimately, the work he did in Zaun would come to kill him, and complete the cycle.

...

Robin's revival caused a lot of memory lapses in his mind, as well, so large chunks of what Zaun was to him are currently missing from his internal timeline. He remembers very specific or important events, the gas leak, for instance, but the rest is somewhat splotchy. He remembers being a doctor, that he worked in Zaun's underbelly, that it was a vile and wicked place but his work in Piltover's Academy has been practically wiped from his mind. With his growing friendships though, Bel is getting stronger and actually being able to feed--and his memory is slowly returning. However one thing has never left him, and it's that Zaun is simply a bad place that he should try and avoid.

touch

AFTERCARE QUESTIONS { touch } : how sensitive is your muse’s body after sex? 

VERY MUCH SO! Robin is extremely touch starved, so he desperately craves physical affection with his lover. After sex his body is so wound up and his mind is a lovey dovey haze--so every touch feels like fire, but its still something he desperately wants. Cuddling will make him feel safe and desired, and if enough touching happens--his partner will probably get another round out of him.

[witchcraftandburialdirt]

what would Robin do if faced with his murderer again?

═══UNPROMPTED HEADCANON QUESTIONS═══

((We, as humans, often like to tell ourselves that if faced with the same problem we would do things differently, or easily be able to resolve the issue, stand up for ourselves, etc-- Robin certainly has told himself that if he ever saw that man again, he would put a bullet in him.

However...this is completely false in every way. Even in a controlled setting, one where he instrinsically knows he is safe, he will freeze. His eyes will stare at the man hoping, praying, he'll disappear entirely from the universe. The primal instinct inside of him screaming for him to run won't lift his legs, and he would just...stand there, unable to speak, unable to react. I honestly think he'd have a panic attack, and probably be transported mentally back to when he was dying. Granted--it's also important to know that Robin's killer was someone he does not know personally, and was most likely tipped off to do it. If that gets revealed, well, then his connections, the friends he made when alive, suddenly seem to mean nothing since he can't place who actually betrayed him.

It would be an all around very horrible time, I think.

[witchcraftandburialdirt]

are there any places that Robin has a strong connection to? anywhere that has a particularly strong memory attached?

═══UNPROMPTED HEADCANON QUESTIONS═══

((Robin has extremely strong memories of the house he grew up in, it's one of the few spaces from his living years that he can see every inch of. Granted these memories can be as simple as making lemonade with his mother during the summer, or as complex as the worst day of his life.

During his time alive, even the slightest trigger could push him back into that house, its once warm colors turning into a sickening shade of green that only reminded him of the horror within its walls. I feel like if he were to ever visit Zaun again, he would actively avoid the street he grew up on, and he wouldn't dare look in the direction of his home when he passes by the road. Even if he were to come to grips with what happened, he will never go near that place again.

Some Robin Facts

Robin actually has quite a few bio issues given his current state.

Robin is a little chilly to the touch.

He’s always stiff (which is partially why despite his personality he isnt like WAHH!! With his movements).

He cannot blink or move his eyes on their sockets to to extensive beating on his eyes before death(he actually has eye drops for this).

His mouth is always slightly agape due to the mandible muscles relaxing at death and then constricting again.Unless he's making an expression or talking, its open.

His book is actually written a majority in braille, and it often looks blank to those who don't give it proper attention. A lot of his journals are written in braille as well, its just become easier for him overtime and gives him a sense of privacy in his works.

He can read, write, and perfectly understand Morse code.

He has difficulty moving his eyebrows, squinting etc. SO his expressions often seem a little stiff (despite how I draw them c:)

He cannot eat or drink much without getting ill or coughing up blood

He generally does not sleep.

He USED to smoke! It's a symbol of power among the elite in Zaun. Now the smell gives him a headache.

His bird often speaks to him through their contract, even if it is often NOT near him. It's very independent but has a food source within Robin that it will protect if need be.

---However!

The demon he’s in a contract with can also change some things around. If it’s near him Robin gains some semblance of life back(the ability to blink, produce tears, etc).

It can also choose to let him sleep or let him eat small quantities of food, if he agrees to eat with another muse, this is why. It uses these moments of kindness to bind Robin tighter and tighter into its sadism.
