who he'd call in an emergency, Ramir, Olivia, or... probably Jason tbh

Woah

look he's a competent badass and he respects this

but he's also last on the list you hear

Also ☾

whoa

gay

??? ??

also!! ❤

wait not that one

❥ this one

?!??

rude

I'll probably have to get back to this after lunch but holy shit this new kid looks identical to James mcavoy and I can't take him seriously

wheezes

star/wishes for sigma

Describe how they would spend a stormy, overcast/rainy day!

oh my god these icons are so much easier to decipher on an actual computer

ok

since I got both regarding this, expressions of trust: it's really hard to pin down a single act that implies total trust, because he's so naturally stupidly trusting to begin with...

I feel like... implicit eye contact is probably one. he's good with eye contact, but I feel like it probably wanders while he talks sometimes. If he's really listening or talking to someone he values he'll make

it a point to focus. like dipping his head if someone drops their gaze or leaning/circling around them if they turn themselves.

make an effort to connect

as for verbally, apart from like, flat out "I trust you"... I feel like, actually properly addressing concerns about himself? maybe?

like if he has no idea what he's doing he's pretty candid about it, but he kind of keeps the depth of the impact of some things to himself

like....... dying a lot....

this is wording itself a lot better in my head

I give up

Words or actions, definitely actions!! They're quicker and easier by far and require zero eloquence

lmao

sleepless nights, normally he's a total mindless phone game player, but in futuro he'd probably get up and do a couple laps around wherever it is they're staying, or harass the cat if she's not also sleeping

does he still have the cat

i'm so pleased

he sure does

zee also said if he ever wakes ramir up, they ramble inanely about nothing, so there's that too

cuuuuuuuute

my ship radar went off

ah

omg that's cute too

where was I... something about how his emotions work that he despises? I feel like he's pretty comfortable with his emotions, even though they're usually strong

it hurts like a bitch when they're negative emotions, but I think if he could tone it down and feel anything less he wouldn't quite feel human.

he could probably use a better poker face though... having every strong emotion that passes by jump onto your face isn't always the most convenient.

he doesn't believe in wishes or anything, but if someone points out like "shooting star, make a wish! o: " he'd probably still think something like "I hope [upcoming event] goes well" offhandedly

oooooo this meme

a harder meme than anticipated...

but so tasty, so tasty

I'm going to pile one more on here

✏ for Sigs

creative outlets, probably solely puns/wordplay!! if that counts. he's mostly technical-minded in the "can barely draw a stick figure" way. and he'll sing if you put music and alcohol in front of him but it's

by no means a hobby

OKAY NOW I want to see Sigma sing sometime

karaoke, make it happen

he'll lay down some t-swift and nicki for you, futuro, just give him a mic.

and a couple beers.

oh hittin up The Classics I see

evan is actually from nearly 2030 so that stuff's probably like, oldies for him

ah he's from 2028, but he's from a game written in 2012, so if you think about all his pop culture references, he's the equivalent of a really passionate 90s kid.

oh my christ they can enjoy all these oldies together, beautiful

I had no idea they were from almost the same year!

❣ ✗

I had no idea either!!

now that I'm not asleep, things that will earn affection from him, like... just... just be nice to him. laugh with him not at him, think he's funny or clever. he's a man of simple needs...

he's definitely more physical with his affection, shoulder-claps and hugs and stuff. ramir's gotten him into hand-holding. just with women though, no homo.

what if achilles wants to hold his hand 8(

don't make it weird bro...

but expressions of hostility or dislike! can be very different.

dislike, depending on how much of a dick the subject of dislike is, he can be really pretty scathing

like 90% of his interactions with phi right in the beginning

he will absolutely be a huge dick back.

if they have a lesser reason to be disliked, like... if he's jealous of or threatened (not physically) by someone, it's quieter snippy commentary most of the time.

outright hostility on the other hand is just very loud and sweary, typical manly guy straightening up and chest puffing out to look bigger. he's not really violent but he's not above it if it's warranted

like at one point someone almost goes back on his word which would result in a kid dying, and even though he's poisoned sigma's outright like I will die crushing this motherfucker's throat

dio earns a lot of ass kicking from sigma.... but he's also an extreme shitbag so I feel like sigma's got a reasonably high threshold before he starts throwing punches

unless someone throws one first.
