💚: how does my muse feel about love? about falling in love? about being in love? [All your ocs and/or Henrik?]
HenrickThe good old doctor is a little nervous about falling in love, after how poorly his marriage went, mostly because of the fact he found out he was a closeted gay, he’s nervous about letting his heart wander. However, he does like the thought of love. He hates how empty and cold his house is, and his bed. Escaping in his work is the only cope he has. He doesn’t feel like he quite deserves it, that he won’t be needed or wanted. Being in love, however, gets him so giddy, and when allowed he will get very touchy, finally being able to hold someone after so many years does something to a person and he just wants to share all that missed contact with someone who loves him back. It will take him a little bit to adjust to the fact he doesn’t have to work as much anymore- because he doesn’t need it as an excuse, he actually has someone to come home to, and he can often almost forget and fall in love all over again when he gets greeted home
IzIzekiel is a little unsure of love. His upbringing and life have always squashed any thoughts of finding anyone and not being judged for it. He’s scared of falling in love for the factor of being later broken hearted, or being annoying or too much to deal with. In the end though, he does like many others, want someone to ground him from his hallucinations, and to soothe his nightmares. He wants to feel like he’s not the outcast freak that he’s constantly made to be.. that at least someone can see beneath his stammery quiet outside that there's someone there wanting just a little affection.Â
Matty: Oh he’s clueless. He’s not sure what the warm squirms of a crush are let alone trying to act on them. He’s touchy enough as it is when people let him, and he constantly worries if he’s being too weird or clingy- hence why he can be very reserved, he’s been told off plenty for being too touchy.. He’s not sure about love, but he does love to get attention, good or bad, unfortunately.Â
Zeno: He’s interested to a point, but he tries not to be because of his semi-siren nature. Constantly paranoid that people probably just flirt with him because its part of his nature to be a bit alluring with his music and things. He’s worried the love will be false, that it’s just a spell he’s causing. Which is why he never uses his abilities, and he’s sometimes upset that the music he loves to make can cause that response.  Sure he needs to feed, but he doesn’t want a harem of hypnotized people. Though if anyone did manage to catch his eye and he was truthfully told he’s not making them love him he’d be a very happy guy. He’s never been in true love and he wants to be allowed to be on the other side of the giddy nature that he see’s when someones truely in love.Â
Quint: Love means alot to this hybrid. He only ever got to experience it once as a mortal and ever since has held those feelings close to his heart. He believes everyone deserves a someone..but with his line of work with helping everyone else- he often forgets he could have that too. Though finding someone is hard when he’s busy looking after Charges. Falling in love is one of the best bits, and trying to assure the partner and spoil them with affection. He wants their love to last as long as the other will allow- whether they let him make them immortal like himself, or they age without him..He would respect the choice, and happily say goodbye to them in his arms if that were the case, because hes a very understanding being who only wants the best for others- even if it hurts himself to a point.Â
Alex: They love love. although, they aren’t quite clear on where platonic love ends and romantic love begins, leaving them a bit confused. All they know is if that person makes the glow and happy they want to be around them, whether or not kisses and hugs are included dont matter..They just wanna have everyone happy!
Rhys: Pretends not to have a heart or require love or affection. He will shut down on himself about feeling anything out of the normal until it becomes too much and it stresses him out. Resulting in multiple googles till he finds the word. He isn’t sure how to handle falling so much for someone. Getting flustered and making quick escapes or pretending not to be affected and later beating himself up over it. it’s not until all the awkward things are out the way does he see the appeal, and even then its still a battle of logic over heart. But if you slowly warm him up, and give him a hug or two, those thoughts will melt away and he’ll just try to let things happen naturally.Â
