I'd finally introduce y'all to my characters. For now, we have Apollo and Albert. Apollo is a giant while Albert is his tiny. Apollo is the Captain of the Royal Guard for his kingdom, as well as the prince and son of the Queen. He is stubborn, stronger than twenty average men, has a strong will and is willing to give his life for his family and people... Also a big softie. I am talking of a 6'3" man who throws couches, yes, sofas, for fun and can lift boulders and throw them for kicks and giggles. He's missing an eye due to a wild cat attack, and has a Phoenix companion named Skylar that saved his life from that cat, and he saved her life beforehand. And yet he is the kindest, most compassionate, romantic, and gentle person one could meet if you caught him on the right day. That's exactly what Albert did. Albert used to be 5'4" before the "shrink", now he stands at a strong height of... 4.3". Unlike Apollo, Albert is shy, somewhat cowardly, nervous, he stutters, and is not the most confident person. He isn't very fit, and is rather jumpy. He is a big nerd, loving classic video games and science altogether, his notebook never leaves his side (because it's full of rambles and notes about his massive crush on Apollo) and he just wants to please others. Apollo loves him to pieces. Most who know Apollo are rather shocked that he could be as gentle as he is with his little lover, but he is. Gently holding, caressing, and kissing Albert are some of his favorite things to do. He can be so gentle as to hold and give Albert his tiny glasses without even bending them. Albert soaks up the attention, and dutifully gives Apollo all the love he can muster, and to Apollo, it's quite a bit. Tiny kisses, hugs, and cuddles are all Albert needs to do to prove that he loves Apollo as much as he loves Albert. Apollo has three scars over his missing eye that Albert always gives extra attention to, gently kissing them to assure Apollo that all is well and that he is here to chase away his fears. Apollo has brown hair that he does brush, but perching high on some rocks every day gives him a signature windblown look. Apollo's remaining green eye is very expressive, it doesn't matter what the rest of his face says, that eye will tell you how he really feels. Wielding a bow and arrow, Apollo is quite the good shot despite his missing eye, but his bird companion, Skylar, holds his targets to keep them from fleeing while he shoots. His complexion is pale and he has the amazing ability to... Not grow facial hair. He just can't. Does he care? Not at all. Albert has very pale skin with ginger hair, brown eyes, glasses, and some freckles. He's also has a bit of a belly, but it's not often noticed. His short cut curls are something Apollo adores, he'll nuzzle his big nose into Albie's hair all day if he can. Apollo has rage issues. He will fight anything, including tree roots he trips over. Albert often has to keep him calm, lest he uproot a giant oak out of anger. One of Apollo's policies is never to threaten someone weaker than him or anyone who doesn't deserve it. If he gets into a fight with Albert (really, really rare and usually only something minor) Apollo will sit down and either lay his head down on a table to be eye to eye with him or simply lay down somewhere. Never will he tower over Albert or throw anything if he gets into an argument with him. That's a big no-no. Which Albert loves about him, he will never abuse his strength by using it on him or anyone else when it's uncalled for. Albert got Apollo into video games rather easily, the man loves adventure games. Pokemon, Shadow of the Colossus, Legend of Zelda and more are his favorites. (Albert's favorites are Sonic and Pokemon) At the end of the day, Apollo will gently take Albert into his hands and curl up into bed with him after a long day, keeping him safe and close until morning. Hope you like em.
