/chinhands TELL ME ALL THE THINGS ABOUT ASH
think you know them all, probably
okay, so tell me what he would be like if he were a different auspice
unless he became an ahroun he'd yeet himself into the sun. no offense Han.
idk. honestly. that's a question that would take a lot of thought. ash loves who he is.
please ramble about King also
how this new battle-hardened version is different from (and similar to) the previous one
if he became ahroun everyone AROUND HIM would combine powers to yeet him into the sun because he'd be insufferable
(I was literally thinking about him today)
butterflied: ooooh good one. guess it's like that cheesy saying you hear about what happens to like lions locked in cages. it breaks that wild thing in them. king very much needs people and family. being alone in that kind of environment broke him in a way. so he's like a wounded dog with no family.
mistakesweremade: he would be! I also just can't even imagine him not being a Galliard. it would fundamentally change what I love about who he is and why.
makes sense. and this is a group that's good at picking up strays
One time in narrative, Oni thought one day Ash would outgrow her pack and start one of his own... Has he ever thought about it?
And, if so, what would he look for in terms of packmates
he has never ever considered it. honestly. he thinks more about how to keep them whole and not let oni die like she wants.
I mean he thought about challenging oni once. cause she was being dumb. his words. not mine. but his ego couldn't take the loss. and he likes his pretty face.
Not let Oni die like she wants ASDFGHK
She's gonna strangle him 🤣🤣🤣
'his ego couldn't take the loss' lol he knew deep down
I was thinking about how, from the outside perspective, one day this rando teenage girl just shows up and is hanging around all the damn time, and how VERY WEIRD AND SUS that would be, and how they might respond to the inevitable questions
and all I could think was neph deadpanning "I'm his bodyguard" and Ash just unblinkingly backing that up
"Tech CEO employs 14yo bodyguard???"
he would get her a jacket and a lanyard
so like she's just There when he's traveling abroad for big business deals or shady darkside business deals and all these other CEOs/criminal bosses are like "who is this small child"
neph: /flashes her lanyard/
when really it's just Ash 1) HAVING A FRIEND??? and 2) finding sneaky ways to pay for neph to go on vacation
Ash: /is going to get a good grade in being a bestie, which is both normal to want and possible to achieve/
I'll admit, I know of Ash but I do not know him well. What are the 5 (or more) favorite things you want people who haven't played with him to know about your character if you had to provide a brief summary.
(or list in this case. Lol, just coming off of work so it's all "summary briefs" and resolutions, sorry)
HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW GENUINE FRIENDSHIP WORKS BECAUSE HE'S RICH AND DIFFICULT
Ha! That would have been the better question, how do other people/characters see Ash!
mistakesweremade: I fucking love how well you know my character BTW. it gives me legit joy.
He doesn't know how ridiculous he is sometimes (read: rollerskating with Locke strapped to his back in wolf form) ALSO because he's rich and difficult
that is a good question. I love it....because my favorite things are not just the good things. 1) what Nicky said. he doesn't know how real, genuine friendship works. he's learning. 2) if he loves you he wants to fix everything for you, even when it's not needed or wanted. 3)NO ONE WILL LOVE YOU AS MUCH OR AS LOYALLY AS THIS FUCKING IDIOT
I love characters like this
4)what
onikins said! he's ridiculous. here's why. i would say a quote that describes him is 'let us live if we must die' he'll never be too old or too serious. whenever he can take a moment to have fun or enjoy something? he will. cause he might be dead tomorrow. 5) sometimes.....he knows you're right but he likes to argue.
6) you said 5 but I'm giving you 6 cause Nicky made another great point, and I do love it. ash will find sneaky ways to do things like pay for your vacation and call it work. or....hey....I'm just throwing this CAR in the garbags
I do want to know how other characters see him
HE IS THE BIGGEST BRAT. listen, linda....one of my fave threads ever is oni and ash fighting and the chapstick getting thrown. the brattiest bullshit ever and in the end I cried!
I love that thread and the follow up of 'i guess unfuck you or whatever' apology

me toooo
it really is a good thread. like it's so very human and fucked up.
I cried too if I'm being honest
I cried when they made up. when they went to the aquarium. JUST FUCK ME UP
unfuck you jfc how did g end up with this baby
repositorian It was as close as he could get to an apology and please believe Oni gave him SUCH SHIT over it lmao
I’m sitting here realizing that neph is similarly unaware of how to resolve conflict in an emotionally mature way and that’s why they are the way they are with each other
Very much a ‘we had a fight, we never discuss it again, we just show up and are cool with each other later’
but now i want them to have to have a real talk
it would be aaaaaaagonizing
Neither of them knows how to ID their own emotions or triggers!!!!
