Do y'all ever think bout the fact that Ulysses probably talks the way he does because he's so traumatized from his years and years under the flag of the Bull and having to hold his tongue and do as he's told that he just... Compartmentalizes everything?
Every microexpression, every mannerism, every single breath. He uses his flowery poeticisms to express what he no longer can outwardly. Not through speech, not through mannerisms.
He simply /says/ and even if he says something firmly, it's still controlled and with only so much emotion.
It's subtle, in ways that I don't see mentioned particularly often.
