👻- For something that scares or disturbs them, but they refuse to tell anyone
Shapeshifters scare Theo. One of his closest calls was when he didn’t realize a shifter was impersonating a fellow hunter, and he would have lost more than a little bit of blood if the actual hunter hadn’t showed up on the scene. Now that he has better control over his vision, allowing him to see a being’s ‘true’ form, he hasn’t made the same mistake.
He’d never say it out loud, or turn down a hunt for one, but they make him very nervous when he is, and he never sleeps well during those hunts.
🌜- For a ‘weird’ habit or tic that no one knows about
Theo aggressively chews on the ends of pens when he’s deep in thought or trying to give a page to his journal some finality. He doesn’t realize he’s doing it until someone else points it out, or the pen is chewed a few inches into the end. He has gotten pen ink around his lips once or twice because of this. Xavier is probably the only person who knows he does this.
🌟- For a secret wish or desire of theirs
Theo wishes he could start a school for hunters. Something structured with experts in the field guiding younger individuals who get pulled into the world of the supernatural whether they like it or not. Like he was. It’s the same desire that fuels his journal, he thinks a comprehensive guide will help hunters in the long run.
🍏- For something they secretly wish didn’t exist
He wishes sleep wasn’t a need that existed.
