001 : what is something your muse loves ? ouo/
Here is the verbal reply~
I wrote a written reply to help me, it works as summary too!
Many suspects Allen loves food, and while this is true, it’s more so that it’s essential to sustaining Crown Clown. He loves to eat, but this comes from a place of not always having been able to eat much. In that sense, he loves to be able to eat, rather than food itself; but he can’t forget his life kind of literally hangs on proper sustainance. He does, however, enjoy sweets and pies.
Allen loves dogs, and it does start thanks to dog Allen. While my Allen doesn’t have a complete blank memory prior to the circus, he has no memory of kindness, and dog Allen was the first living being to make him feel warm, so seeing dogs remind him of dog Allen, and this sustain this love he has for dogs (in addition to dogs feeling, to him, friendly and loyal). Mana followed soon after.
Allen loves Mana and Cross, and while he’s grown to care for his Exorcist friends, it still pales in comparison to how deeply he has loved both his father figures. This is a big part due to how Mana and Cross have cared for him while also knowing the true him (which is, sadly, something no one else does, since no one else knows him as deeply as both men had). In a general sense, he’ll love deeply anyone who grows a place as father figure or big brother almost paternal.
Those were all rather expected I feel, so what about things I personally see my Allen love? Nature and animals in general. He loves all kind of natural landscapes, and in truth, Allen loves to travel. He adores to be moving, and see nature, and animals; and in general he adores life. But yes, he loves to travel, and it’s not because he’s lived so often on the road, but genuine love for travels.
Nea has a hard time feeling deep love for anything, but whenever he does, it’s deep. He loves Allen, all of Allen, no matter if it’s the spirit, the human, or the Exorcist. He loves Mana, and he loves Katerina. Maybe not as deeply as Allen, Mana or Katerina, but he does love the Noahs. With the Noahs, it’s kind of... not parternal but protective, and he doesn’t see him as the younger one, he sees them as the oldest and the one who needs to make them safer and happier.
Nea also loves Timcanpy, and the Ark (both as it was the spirit home, and as it became the Noahs home). He loves music, and he loves Allen’s singing voice. Nea adores felines of all kind, and he loves the wind.
Nea does love the piano; he also loves to be outside. He loves flowers, and loves forests and trees. He loves the ocean and the seas, and he loves clear blue sky but he also loves storms.
Nea is pretty equal in liking sweet and salty, but what he loves is spicy. That’s a headcanon I just got. I knew he wasn’t quite a sweet lover like Allen, but I always wondered what I would see Nea love. Now I know.
As you can see, both of them loves nature in general. Allen loves more so animals but enjoys landscapes, while Nea loves more so non-animal (trees, landscapes, etc) but enjoys animals too.
While both of them loves life, it expressed in a different manner. Allen does love to see people living, while for Nea, he loves the quiet show of life (the wind, a beautiful forest, etc).
To some degree, both loves children. They loves the most to see happy children.
And as it shows in who they loves, both of them loves who they see as their family. This is also why both can be nitpicky about who they allow as family, as to them, it means a lot.
Also: yes, they love each other, and it’s not defined. I leave it open, and it’s mostly if we know for sure that our muses aren’t developping a romantic relation (or if our muses are open to polyamory) that a romantic relation can form between my Allen and my Nea. More than that though, it’s love in a sense that’s deeper than “romantic” or “platonic”. It’s so secure, unbreakable, they don’t “need” to be in a romantic relationship, because the love just is. They can, if they want, have a relationship in the full sense, but their love is just... complex to explain, and a very deep bond.
In summary: they love nature, they love some elements of nature (dogs, felines, life), they love people they consider family, and above all, they love each other. This love for each other is such a part of who they are, that it cannot be left unsaid when it comes to speaking of what they love.
(This, in a sense, explain why Allen is not living a balanced life so far: he is missing Nea’s presence in his life).
