I’M DIVINE

“Happiness is not something which you find once and bask in its graces for eternity, and to believe so is a fool’s errand. Genuine contentment requires effort, action and commitment, like anything worth pursuing. I chase satisfaction at every waking moment.”

“I assume you mean physically. If so, no. Despite feeble attempts, not many possess the guts or the strength to succeed.”

“My piano, to name one. It was a gift.”

ooc. needless to say rhosh is very physical and intense, so he quite literally could never be with someone who doesn’t want to be touched (unless it’s part of some kink if you catch my drift). it’s how he displays his affections, as vocalizing them is quite the rare treat reserved to those he truly adores. besides, he’s always been the sort of show not tell kinda person. and when he loves someone, no touch is meaningless, each conveys something that will be up to the receiver to translate. as for the others who don’t fall in the adored/loved category, well, those he are not very keen to touch much of at all. not even a handshake whatsoever. it becomes no contact zone because my man is a man of extremes in most if not all aspects.

thank you again for your super nice words, it makes me genuinely super happy to know my portrayal of him is appreciated like that🥺🩷

ooc. that you took a moment on your day to send this already means a lot!! and thank you🥹 gjsjjs i wish he’d bring more humor to the table himself but his sense of it is pretty acid and flat most of the time!! so i enjoy adding the stuff he won’t mention (and in ways that he’d never ever do it) in the tags for clarity purposes at times so i’m glad they can be amusing<3

ooc. jess you’re always the sweetest🥺 i appreciate your words so much, even more so as you’ve seen my portrayal of rhosh being constructed from day one!! thank you so much for your kind words, your support and for writing w me for all those years<3 rhosh wouldn’t be rhosh without your eve (for better and/or worse ha!) i love you too!!<3

ooc. thank you so much!! knowing that he’s appreciated despite his difficult character makes me so happy<3 he’s usually not the kinda character i tend to write so having the opportunity of making him extra annoying is quite cathartic ehehe

“No. The mere suggestion is odious.” He scoffs with no humor. “I am the subjugator, not the subjugated.”

ooc. he enjoys driving even if it’s not a need (thank you cloud gift!) and he’s pretty good at it. but it’s something he does more often when he intends to actually mingle with mortals in an event of some sort, not only just to hunt. he does have a collection of vintage & sports cars, all in black, though the big majority is there for decor and style alone, and not for driving purposes.

ooc. when it comes to romantic love, rhosh’s ways of loving and displaying it are both obsessive and overbearing, because that’s how he is!! actual love doesn’t come easily for him, attraction and occasional infatuation do. but when it gets to him (and he accepts that it does), he measures no effort to make his lover know that they are desired and cared for, in his own particular, compulsive and suffocating ways. he’s considerably less selfish towards those he loves, and although he claims that his love isn’t unconditional, that’s obviously not really true. in all his absurd power and skills, he can’t control his feelings, and he never truly stops loving someone he’s fallen for. when it comes to other kinds of love, it’s a bit more difficult to discern. he doesn’t feel platonical love, for example, but he does feel familial love, such as what he held for his mother and his sister, of course. but as a vampire, the lines may get blurry (even more so for him) in some instances and he is most certainly not attached to any sort of labels whatsoever. to him, love is love, and already consequent enough as it is, regardless of its specification or branch.

ooc. this one is funny to me because he was never much of a believer even as a mortal. akasha was perhaps the closest thing he’s ever seen to some sort of deity and which he recognized as one, even if not for long. he really cannot understand the obsession with the christian god at all, though he gives the church credit for its worldwide forceful brainwash through control, murder and propaganda because well. can’t say it didn’t work. i guess a part of him is envious of how the idea of a divine being can get so much love, adoration, prayer etc when there is not even a single proof they indeed exist meanwhile He (rhosh) is there and he’s very powerful and very real. his own god complex is nonetheless an influence from his upbringing (supposed to become a king-priest as a mortal even if he most certainly did not care about the latter), from akasha’s power and tyrannical nature and lastly a direct inspiration from the aforementioned christian god, for the reason mentioned above. he much prefers the concept of polytheism (though more as a concept and not as a religion per se) as well as shintoism (as a belief it’s fine in his opinion) even if he wouldn’t be invested in either because he gotta push his own agenda.
