Heyyy happy Pride! I've come for your asks <3
I'd like to know about both the lads from Agnomen. They're just stuck in my brain.
6: How does your oc feel about labels? Theirs, or in general?
Hello, happy Pride!!! Thanks for the ask, theyāre also stuck in my brain ā„ļø
I honestly havenāt put much thought into the way that labels exist within the world of Agnomen because Iāve been thinking of the characters the same way I think of the characters from Hamlet and Coriolanusāall vaguely bisexual, but without a word for it and irrelevant to the core plot besides.
But I think that if labels were more important, Althem would be the kind of guy who very intentionally avoids claiming a label in front of anyoneāin equal parts because he believes itās nobody elseās business and because he finds it endlessly funny to make everyone guess. He finds his people among those who are content to leave him alone about it and talk about queerness without trying to categorize him in the process.
I think he also doesnāt particularly care if other people use labels, but is also the kind of pretentious queer that privately thinks heās smarter and cooler than everyone else for not using them and will be condescending about it when the mood strikes.
Hadux is the same in that he doesnāt have any particular allegiance to a single label, but is exactly the opposite in that heās outrageously happy to claim anything that anyone guesses. He collects them like PokĆ©mon cards and keeps them all in a box that he can show people like āLook upon all of the names people have called me! Is it not grand to be so regardedāthey do not know me, but still they think of me!ā He would unironically wear the tacky Amazon Pride shirts, but theyād all be ones that someone else bought for him and theyāre each four different flavors of mlm. Not a pretentious bone in his body, heās just touched that someone would think of him enough to get him a shirt.
