Just trying to sleep my way through life

|🩷| Ithaqua is possessive compared to many others at the manor by a long shot, and your adoration of him could serve as a source of reassurance for him.

|🩷| He’s quite entertained by your adoration for him, Ithaqua finds it quite cute and likely would comment about it from time to time, though he can be a little tough on the outside and wouldn’t be too direct about it.

|🩷| People were terrified of him prior to coming to the manor, and it’s likely people in the manor fear him as well. He hasn’t been adored like this since his mother was with him, and the feeling of being needed is bittersweet but addicting.

|🩷| You may notice him softening up at the way you look at him, allowing his walls to break down just a little bit, more so in private. He doesn’t want to be the type to show vulnerability in fear his life would get ruined once more, but the knowledge that you aren’t going to go away is one that calms him slightly. (Unless yk.. an accident happens in a manor game ;))

|🩷| Ithaqua under all of his emotional walls is a rather traumatized man who needs somebody to protect in order to fufill the role of a protector that he had prior to arriving at the manor. Your adoration of him leads to him taking care of you much more than he otherwise would, watching after you as often as possible.

|🩷| He does adore you quite a bit in return. Everything about you is just so perfect, how his mother would have loved you.

|🩷| As such, he’s willing to allow you to follow him around so he can “show you off”- but in reality, your presence makes him feel human again and reminds him that he can be loved, something he hadn’t felt in a while.

|🩷| In Matches he’d always refrain from harming you. Would you still adore him if he harmed you or another one of your teammates too badly? He rathers not risk it (even if you’d still like him, he fears being alone again)
