     “I take it I’m ‘pretty boy’?” Loch asked from the doorway he was leaning in. Asher swung round, not having heard him approach. “Hm. Not the worst name you could have picked, I suppose.” He smirked as Asher gaped at him, and he pushed himself off the frame. He walked up to him and gave him a quick kiss, then turned to the freezer and grabbed his sorbet. Asher watched stiffly as he sat opposite Shard and they stared each other down.

CURRANT: what’s something that absolutely disgusts your muse(can be a person, place, thing, ect)?

A person thatdisgusts him? Hey JOSEPH. Joseph andFaith both make him sick to his stomach when he sees/experiences what they doto people firsthand. Alex has no love for those who prey on people’s insecuritiesand weaknesses. A generalized disgust he has is the conditions for journalistsand truth seekers abroad, and even stateside. He’d been planning on travelingto Russia to cover the situation there at the end of the month until Eden’sGate kidnapped him and his friends. General injustice and people turning ablind eye to it or exploiting it makehim upset.

He’s also made it clear to Hannah that he thinks the US Military is abusing the people who enter it and that there’s a lot of gross glorification of it and how they don’t treat their vets with appropriate care after their service, but yeah. General injustice, general social inequality, general humanities rights are things he gets worked up about. Part of it is his familial history with Jewish lineage on both his mother and father’s side, most of it is his innate sense of right and wrong.

RASPBERRY: what food and/or drink can your muse not get enough of?do they indulge in it often, or is it something reserved for special occasions?

Alex has very low self-control when it comes to sweets.Especially energy drinks. He is a suckerfor energy drinks. That said he’s somewhat self-conscious of what the stuffwill do to him if he has it in excess so he tries to watch his intake. When heindulges he’ll often be seen running laps or doing boxing drills to try andwork up a sweat. He’s got a stockpile of internalized shame because he knows if he sees abag of gummy bears in the convenience store on sale for 99 cents – he’s goingto buy them. He also knows those gummy bears are going to be consumed withinminutes of opening them and he probably will forget to offer any to Sara orHannah.

So at that point it’s time to do some pushups/laps and promisehimself he won’t do this again. He will though. He absolutely will. It’s a vicious cycle of sugar induced joy/regret.

NEW LEAF: what message would your muse send to their past self,if any? 

If given the chance, his knee-jerk reaction is to tellhis past self not to respond to Mark’s letter. Not to go to Hope County or encounter Eden’s Gate. Maybe,in retrospect he would try and warn himself to go alone – don’t bring Hannah,don’t bring Sarah. Plan accordingly and don’t let them get involved in it.
