#ar mark

AR:

Mark, before receiving his new glaive, would usually fiddle with sharp rocks and his bandages when lost in thought (in an attempt to ignore the urge to pick at his skin) - now, he's often stretching and practicing with his weapon, feeling useful for once, and making jokes like he always does - otherwise, he's usually wandering, taking in all the sights on his fantastic journey.

Azrael can usually be seen trying to spiffy himself up as best he can, of course much more hesitant about all.of this than the undead guard, trying to stick with the people he's known the longest and follow their lead (he's trying to take a bit of a break from advising tbh) - but when he's not freaking out over something, he can appreciate a bit of a breeze once in a while.

Janet and Bridgette (the old lady mentors) usually prefer to gossip between one another, but they (surprise surprise) are not just catty old women - if they're not sneaking in a few observational notes of their teammates, they're often sewing or knitting, slowly making blankets, bandages, and other fabric gear that might become necessary.

(New) Gemma, in the Spiritless World, honestly was going on a Princess Bride style adventure, getting into all sorts of hijinks and attacking anything that dares get in her way, when she's not biting shit she often is hiding in one of the forests, collecting food and the fungi - once reunited with her beloveds, she ofc is gonna take them on equally insane sidequests, but also with plenty of cuddles and calm too (she can't risk losing them so soon...)

Trapped:

Sabre, when he isn't overthinking, he likes to try to practice stuff, keeping to himself more than usual and just kind of....letting the moment wash over him, if he's not yapping with Galaxy or one of his friends - he likes keeping things quiet when he can - especially as he's struggling to come to terms with this new life of his.

Francis, though still uncomfortable with his...everything, does find some solace in dark caves, often being found napping against cold hard stone and examining the underground fauna and flora - rarely, he enjoys climbing up into trees to watch the stars, contemplating life and what it means to be alive when he's half-demon now.

Ivy, after waking up, is taught how to make flower crowns by Francis, becoming her new favorite thing - she especially loves making them with sunflowers - and though she's still confused by the...everything, she enjoys talking with the Steves and learning about their world and Sabre's adventures there.

Other:

Daycare Sabre, ironically, kind of enjoys ToT's adventures in Doors - they remind him of some of the spookier games the daycare would have, death impermanence and all - but he also just enjoys being a little shit to his temporary guardians, especially with the leftover glitter and materials Mal had given him - sometimes he just stomps and runs around with his little hooves kicking up dirt everywhere.

Labs!Rainbow loves to make flower crowns and gift stuff to friends, and also is deeply touch starved, so he finds himself often cuddled up with his nearest close friend when he gets tired and lonely - if he'd gotten to live a normal life, he would've had a flower shop he ran in his spare time as the hero.

Labs!Sabre/Assistant, truly, are only satisfied putting on grand, horrifically hilarious experiments and acts for their "viewers," the former having a laugh that only happens on camera, and the latter simply performing his duties as he was programmed, or so it would appear..

IGC just loves to travel through her created world, being able to guide people through something so mysterious that she understands like the back of her hand fulfills her so much - she'd do almost anything to keep going, in a way that she was never allowed to or capable of before....she hopes it will never end in bitter tears.

(Extra) Coconut the dog adores her owner IGC, but she loves eating sticks and rocks and pretty much anything she can get - she's obsessed with licking people's noses, ears, and toes, so she's quite a good distraction from anything and everything - she loves chewing on her stuffed panda bear in the dead of night.

Twisted Rainbow, SSO/BSS:

TR M is usually stitching and sewing, if he's not trying to keep an eye on Shadow and Sabre - but he also likes to carve while watching the sky (he's very very glad to be out of the Nightmare dimension, he missed seeing the stars) - having lived such an intense life, he's often trying to find busywork, but the quiet moments are something he still quietly savors.

TR Shadow Sabre, aka Elite, is much like M, being unsure what to do in peace, but he finds himself drawn to flowers, especially dandelions, as they remind him of the Yellow Steves that showed him mercy and kindness - though he's equally uncertain of caretaking, a small part of him finds a little fraction of pride as he sees Sabre and Shadow enjoying themselves and feeling safe around him.

SSO chicken!Purple usually yaps with pickaxe!Rainbow, Rain really being his only friend at first - but as he gets comfortable with the others, he likes to squawk randomly to bother them, then teleport away so they can't reach him - he's also deeply fascinated by Galaxy and is constantly asking him questions.

(New) BSS Blue is often thinking deeply about Rainbow no matter where he is - once finally out of hell, easily his favorite thing is to just dive into water, letting his gills and scales soak as he watches the sky above, but he also just loves to take a deep breath and not feel dizzy for once - once he gets comfortable, he most certainly will yap with Hypno and the Lights about his best friend.

(New) BSS Light doesn't have a clue about Rainbow, but he does like listening to Blue and the others yap about him - when he's alone, he often enjoys collecting flowers, even though they usually turn white after awhile.

(New) BSS Guardian is very similar to regular Guardian, but he has much closer ties to his mortal life as an Orange Steve - whenever he takes a kind soul in, he often carves into their skull (moreso spiritually than physically) the same ritual patterns, as to ensure their body and soul will both rest in peace - he finds himself drawn to the local spiders whenever he visits the mortal plane, being very gentle with the varying-sized creatures.

(New) BSS Demon is usually bothering people for entertainment, yes, but he also likes to carve things in his free time, reminding him of home, or coating his wings and horns in gold again, trying to cover up the nasty wounds he'd gained so long ago - rarely, he will attempt a small prayer and sacrifice to the gods he once sacrificed for in life - though, he doubts they hear him anymore.

RQ:

Swaploop!Rainbow, aka Sabow, once he starts to get used to his body, finds quite a bit of freedom in being able to fly and create on the dot, his favorite thing to build being small teal and orange cabins just left behind for any poor, lost soul, as an attempt to make up for all the people he'd hurt in his human life - he also likes making goofy feathery accessories for Oranbre.

Swaploop!Sabre, aka Oranbre, is just happy to see Sabow start to feel comfortable, he loves the goofy accessories his companion makes, but also enjoys bothering Gerald Steve with increasingly silly questions when bored, usually carving dumb stuff into trees when alone.

Swaploop!Gerald Steve obliges to answer the questions, which give him an opportunity to distract himself from the existential nightmare they're in at the moment - when he's alone, he usually is journaling or meditating, trying to keep his connection with his kin strong - they're often the one thing keeping him sane, sometimes.

(Extra) Leaf the dog, of course, is obsessed with rolling in leaf piles - but when that's not available, she chews on leaves and hides in bushes when she's not running around with Coconut or jumping in puddles - like her original owner, she can be a bit intense, but she's much nicer than RQ Elemental, (usually) not having any grudges.

TSS:

Galaxy, having no physical body, usually is just yapping and making jokes, oftentimes trying to get Sabre out of his own head - though he does tease and goof around with the others, he is genuinely a very solid advice-giver and quite helpful to Sabre's practicing of Minecraft life (especially when it comes to cooking delicious meals).

Stone!Shadow Sabre truly isn't that aware of many things, but he knows one thing: that the people that found him are worth sticking around - he learned to laugh from D!Sabre, how to control his powers and stress from Elite, how to keep his balance and understand language from M - and while he might not know the word for it, he's so so very grateful for them.

Pickaxe!Rainbow, naturally, enjoys bothering and yelling at Galaxy/Sabre for not hurrying up and fixing him, but he does also try to help them in what little ways he can, usually involving biting or whacking shit and just yapping to get Sabre's mind off stuff - he likes hanging out with Chicken Purple and recounting his adventures, and exploring flower fields - he's just glad they're not stuck with Brain fried!Purple.

Guardian, of course, likes cuddling with his friends, finding freedom in his flights - in addition to his BSS counterpart's interests, he would often be seen chatting with some of the more "morally gray" spirits, making sure they're doing okay - with the rest of the team, he often tries his best to listen to what's on their mind, and much like Mark, take in all the sights.

Time's love language is cooking, easily, and it shows with the role he's taken on in the team, but he also enjoys making little gear-based gadgets and gathering new culinary materials to test out - experimenting with cooking is easily his favorite pastime.

Illusion, of course, sticks to being on his own, but he does take great pleasure in being able to show off a little, especially when it's something he created with no relation to anybody else - he obviously likes to complain a lot, and will grumble about being forced into this adventure, but he secretly appreciates that this team isn't actively grinding him into dust with how annoying they are.

Hypno obviously loves to freak out and annoy people, especially the ladies, but he does try to make some semblance of friends, for Rainbow's sake, even if it's usually through mutual pettiness and other such activities - he genuinely enjoys Zero's presence, both as a partner in crime and just as a person - when the two of them aren't scheming, he's often thinking ahead of everyone or thinking of Rainbow, as to be expected.

Fax!Light, being in such a weak state, usually spends most of his time sleeping, so he likes to cuddle - but when he does have the energy, he likes making flower crowns or writing to communicate (though his handwriting is messier than usual), he also doesn't actually mind Hypno all that much, enjoying being able to communicate through his mind reading about Rainbow.

Emerald, nowadays, spends his time carefully examining samples of the local flora and fauna, trying to understand the universe-mixing through the soil - when he isn't halfway to insanity or working, he's usually just sitting quietly on the sandy hills, unable to really calm his thoughts otherwise.

SL:

Ocean Leader, once things settled down (and when he's not getting sent to random places-) finds some peace in resting in a pond a bit away from the kingdoms, where he can take a deep breath and watch the stars without interruption - in his kingdom, when not helping about, he likes to spend his time caring for the local fish and corals.
