You’ve been nice to an unusually large bird: You’ve been nice to her while she’s in the form of Crow and, whether or not you were in contact with her or with the original owner of the body she borrows, you now have a cartoonish bird that will harass you and steal your snacks.

Sticky Fingers: With Cyri around, it’s only a matter of time before something goes missing and she’s acting inconspicuous, the most conspicuous thing she could do.

Marriage: In life? Yes. Strictly out of obligation to please family. In undeath? No. Maybe. Probably not. Something about undeath makes the whole thing seem a little... silly? Till death do us part; guess it's over before it even started, huh?

Love Language: Verac once was much, ah, better at showing emotion. He had the mask of nobility he wore in the face of social affairs, arranged meetings with potential marriage partners, and his family. The greatest expression of love he could really offer was to remove that mask and share something more than surface-deep. Getting lost in long conversations, yammering on about his work, sharing some of the little free-time he had with anyone was the only way he knew to show someone that he cared about them. In the aftermath of death, the way he's expressed love has experienced a pretty radical change. The Hunger™, the driving force to hurt and to revel in that hurt, has been supressed in recent years but still holds some dominion over all things he does. For a platonic love, being able to comfortably restrain himself from satisfying those urges is a feat. To be any warmer than positively ice cold is an even greater one. Romantic love is another beast, one where an expression of love and the satisfaction of The Hunger™ are intertwined in a... non-destructive manner. We'll leave that to our imaginations, shall we?

Leading in relationships: In life, nnnnoooooo. Too much work, to many things to focus on, too little of a choice in who his friends and romantic partners were supposed to be. What was there to lead? Undeath has given him a freedom and a change in disposition. His time amongst the Scourge left him able to and comfortable with manipulating people, dominating others, and all around being a bit of a controling dick to most people. There are exceptions; relationships he wants to foster for reasons beyond personal gain, ones that make him feel a little more... living? And those are relationships he's proactive in forming and keeping.

🎭 - When she was still in Suramar, there was a lot of bottling. She hadn't yet come out as She; her mother was very insistent her Son properly inherit the house, take a respectable wife, and produce the next generation. The first time she let her feelies explode out of her was when she first met @tirrea. That startled her enough that she ran away and took almost a year to build up the courage to revisit her (being stuck in a brutal battlefield for most of their time apart expecting Blight to be the death of her helped steel her resolve). Now she does what she can to be emotionally upfront with the people she wants to keep in her life.

💋 - Non bien. It'd be enough for her to ax a relationship, no matter how strongly she feels for the perpetrator. She can do betrayal.

💔 - MISERY. She'd carry that heartbreak for the rest of her life and even if she moved on, she'd neber be over it. She still beats herself up for not being able to save her (kind of awful) mother from becoming a Felborne. Imagine if it was someone that she had an actual good relationship with.

Does constant petty theft count as her worst? Cause if so, that. But worst also carries a sort of exceptionalness to it and, lesbi honest, that'd be the least exceptional thing about the big dumb idiot girl.

For Cyri: what is your muse’s love language? | how long does your muse have to know someone before they decide to ask them out? | what sort of things does your muse look for in a partner?

Love Language: If love has languages, Cyri's a polyglot. She falls in romantic and platonic love at a breakneck pace. Expressing her feelings come as easily as breathing. Sad? You know she's gonna sob her eyes out. Excited to see someone? She's going to dive into them and expect them to catch her ( sorry not sorry @voidbeer ). She loves physical affection and can't help but want to hug and hold onto people that make her feel safe. She'll tell you what's on her mind (and rarely regrets it, no matter how embarassing it is) because who needs a filter anyway? Telling someone sge loves that she loves them? Easy peasy. Bring her a pumpkin pie and she say she loves you through a full mouth of sweets ( and she'll say it again even if @irielle-firine doesn't say it back, cause Iri's great and she deserves to know it dang it). And sure it's not always fluffy sweetness. Pulling @voidbeer 's head tentacles (hentacles? No, wait. Too close to something very different), whining at @detect-magic for giving her a job and begging her to buy her things, crying just because she could give @hinahinagray 's Taoln a hug for the first time, pinching @thornbolts 's dumb hat, trying to feed @star-spire rats (i swear to god this makes more sense in context). Dumb bird girl's love is all over the place.

how long does your muse have to know someone before they decide to ask them out?: In less time than it takes to read this question, but a lot longer to actually mean it.

What does she look for in a partner:

Rule 1. Don't break the rules

Rule 2. Don't follow the rules

Rule 3. Omae wa mo shinde banned iru

Uncomfortable in relationships: Adress the problem; easily. Were she not in a relationship she felt secure in, with a partner she respected and felt respected by, she would probably hesitate. Thankfully, Tirrea exists. Wanting to be complacent in a situation that would ultimately make them both unhappy? No way. She'd always choose those hard conversations over saying nothing if it means a healthier relationship.

Marriage: Yes. Lliane is absolutely no stranger to commitment. She goes all in on everything she does.

Plans or flow: Both! She'd like to be able to plan, but the world beyond the bubble and beyond a battlefield is so new to her that planning is just not a skill she has. So, flow for now, planning... eventually?

You've violated the laws of the game. I have to ban you from plotting with me. I'm so sorry, but those are the rules.
