I wanted to put this one last, so sorry it's late! ;w;  Now...how meta do I go with this :v

Dear Nairyn,

You, young man, have done an excellent job getting to where you've gotten!  You have many hardships ahead though, so don't relax just yet.  I'm sure that you wouldn't have even if I had said that you could, though.  I'd say that I'm sorry for putting you through such a horrible childhood, but both you and I know that if not for that, then you wouldn't be the person you are today.  I suppose that I should tell you to lighten up, but you probably know what you're doing.  As long as you put your trust into the right people and live a free life!

Love,

Isabella

Dear Ernst,

Buck up, sweetie!  You may feel like a fish out of water when you're with Jotunheimr, but I assure that you're in the right place.  You'll grow stronger, more mature, and maybe you'll even gain a work ethic!  Joking aside, I'm sorry about Sonja and Ellie, and what you have to go through to get them back.  I know that you're stuck between a rock and a hard place, but I know that you can come out of this mess smelling like roses...or at least like lavender.  So stay strong, and remember why you stayed with your team.

Love,

Ahh sorry for getting this one out here REALLY late, it was giving me a lot of trouble xD;  Even now I'm just....forget it it's been too long.  I ain't finding second songs for my boys :c

One song that I really REALLY like to associate with Nairyn is Embers by Owl City.  I feel like the first few stanzas could be describing his life in the slums, and the chorus about how he'll do what he can to make sure that Jotunheimr succeeds.

*casually snuck on your art blog for reference*

There's a Nairyn. o3o

And also since I wasn't sure which reference I wanted to use, your bonus is:

WITH THEIR NOSES :V

For Nairyn, it depends on when you catch him.  If it's right after or during training, then he smells strongly of sweat.  If it's after mealtime, then he'll smell a lot like whatever he ate. But normally, I think that he would smell like his natural body odor+soap, neither of which make a strong scent.  I'm assuming that he doesn't REEK >u>

Sorry gimme some time for 27.  It's hard and I can't think of anything D8

Knocking out fantasy, because that is what RO is, I think that Nairyn's would be a serious drama, blending with a bit of adventure (mostly in the days where he traveled around rune-midgard) and comedy (when he joins Jotunheimr).  It's not that he becomes funny, it's just that dumb things happen to him that are entertaining to others 8')

Nairyn's favorite outfit is his Ranger uniform.  To him, it a status symbol of all his hard work, and having had finally achieved his dream of becoming a ranger...and getting a better life.

His favorite time of the year would be spring.  Summer's too hot, winter's too cold, but spring and fall are juuust right.  What makes him choose spring over fall, though, is just the symbolism of the season.  Spring signifies new beginnings, and goodness knows that he's been looking for those for a good portion of his life.

Finally, his favorite holiday is Thanksgiving...and not just because he gets to feast!  Thanksgiving prompts him to reminisce about all the good things that has happened to him, and this actually puts him in a very mellow mood.  On Thanksgiving, he's more...how to put it...tame?  He's less likely to scowl and snap at people, because he's so deep in thought, and the large amount of food doesn't hurt ;D  In fact, if you'd like to ask him a favor, you should do it after he's done reminiscing and before he slips into a food coma xD

Ernst is a different story altogether.  His favorite comfort food is spaghetti with clams!  His mother cooked a lot of seafood, and out of all the dishes she made, spaghetti with clams was his favorite uvu

Ernst's vice is hot ladies~ ;D  In fact, if brothels are a thing in RO, then Ernst would probably visit them occasionally.  He wouldn't have sex with any of the women there, he's classier than that, but the feeling of having a woman on each arm is just very appealing.  Of course, he wouldn't dare be caught in one of those establishments >3>;;  However, even if brothels DON'T exist in RO, then that doesn't change the fact that he likes to be surrounded by women

He doesn't exactly have a favorite outfit, but he does like to wear clothes that are similar to his minstrel outfit.  Something semi-formal but comfortable, allowing him to perform for others.  So collared shirts, vests/jackets, nice pants and shoes will pretty much do the trick for him.  He's not too picky (just a little).

His favorite hot drink is tea!  Don't ask me which one, though, I don't know anything about tea.  Ernst just likes it because it helps keep him up at night, when he's trying to write his music~  Alcohol is also good at that time, though....

Ernst's favorite time of the year is summer!  So long as he's not melting hot and drowning in sweat, he likes summer c:   He likes having fun, or even just the anticipation of having fun!  Swimming, hanging out with friends, hot babes...it's just a very appealing season to him ;D

Ahh, I think I've done a bit of this question before...oops!  Well, as I've said before, both boys have calloused hands to varying degrees, but this time I'll elaborate on that ouo

Nairyn's hands are quite muscular, and the veins on his hands and wrist are pretty prominent.  I think he'd be the type to bite his fingernails, just because what is a nail clipper, though he'd probably be trying to stop that.  His palms are calloused as well, due to doing a lot of physical activity (crafting arrows, helping out with whatever chores Jheimz needs, working out in general, and the occasional parkour feat).  There is also calloused skin on the inside of  the knuckles of his right pointer, middle, and ring fingers, though said skin is also peeling.  This is due to him pulling on a bowstring so often.  Boy should've gotten a finger tab already but he's too damn stingy 8I

Ernst wants a lady who can understand him, likes his music, and can always be his muse.  He wants her to make him feel like he wants to work, like he's not just forcing himself to get off his butt and do whatever it is she's asking him to do.  It would be great if she could sing, too!  He also wants her to be just as or a little bit more exciting than he is.  A boring life is no fun at all~
