Get to know the mun! [ Accepting! ]

I believe this has been sitting in my asks for long enough now.

Now.

Do you want the humorous option where large arthropods have a direct line to Nhe'a's FIGHT response?

Or do you want the angsty version where he's sometimes not entirely sure whether he exists?

Nhe'a's primary mode of transportation is teleportation magic, and it seems that he didn't get the memo on aether sickness. As such, he's never quite sure why it's not more common -- but that is because he simultaneously overestimates the aether capacity of the average person, and underestimates his own. After all, if he can do it, most everybody else must too, right?

At least he recognizes that teleporting without aetherytes to guide you along the aether sea is dangerous, and thus tries to use it sparingly.

Nhe'a is levin-aspected, and feels most comfortable during thunderstorms. The hissing of rain, howling of wind, grumbling of thunder. Occasional flashes of lightning. The way the air tastes. There is nothing better, and he's been known to sit nestled up against a window, and casually dissociate.

An incomplete list of things Nhe'a likes, in no particular order:

Tea

Tea-flavoured anything

Mint-flavoured anything

Ginger-flavoured anything

Lakes and rivers

Swimming in lakes and rivers

The texture of paper

Reptiles

Rain

Steel toe boots

Walking barefoot

Etymology

Sunsets and sunrises

The smell of burning beeswax candles

Wind chimes

Willow trees

The colour blue

The taste of aether

As for why, some are as simple as Good Thing Good, while others appeal to the way he processes sensory input.

For plot reasons, he is currently developing an appreciation for antelope jerky, and coffee.

(Also asked by @kich-rp. Thank you too c:)

Nhe'a flicks an ear at you. "How in the seven everloving hells am I supposed to know what's going on in people's minds?" he asks back, genuinely stumped.

The thing about Nhe'a is that he's essentially feral, so connecting with others is difficult because he's never learned how to go about it.

Though when he does, he gets deeply attached, even if he might not know how to express it in a way that will be understood. He's the sort to give anything for the people he loves - up to, and including the starting, running, and winning of wars metaphorical and literal - and having no sense for his own personal safety certainly helps.

Since you didn't specify a character I decided to send some love in the direction of ma boi Rabi, so have a Nhe'a being an eyepatch rabbit!
