Telos

I like you // I love you // You’re one of my best friends // You’re like family // You are family // I dislike you // I hate you // I’d kill you if I got the chance // I want you to like me // I’m scared of you // I would adopt you // I’d date you // I’d sleep with you // I’d marry you // I’m worried about you // You confuse me // You’re annoying // I pity you // I respect you // I trust you // I feel protective of you // I’d invite you with me to parties // I’d lend you my money // I’d borrow your money // You’re good-looking // I’m suspicious of you // I’m hiding something from you // You’re fun // You’re boring // I’m upset with you // You’re nice // You’re mean // I’m envious of you // You’re smart // I look up to you // I think you’re a better person than me // I think I’m a better person than you // I want to apologize to you // I wish I’d never met you // I never want to forget you // I want to get to know you better

Avellino’s thoughts and feeling on the man is a mess of gigantic proportions– especially after some of the most recently events. Much of his person considered Telos as a much older, wiser and more stable individual than himself and came to respect and look up to him due to this; though it came to bite him in the ass, hard, and he’s come to the realisation he doesn’t actually understand anything he thought he did. Regardless, he cant shake his feelings or affection for the man- something akin to a puppy that could get kicked and would still come back to his master.The rest of him however thinks of it as entertaining– a twisted game he has front row seats to. Its started to take it toll though, but he would sooner die than show that kind of weakness. Maybe he will.

This is actually a real good one for Black Bear, if a bit cliche.

Doing these for Upa, too ~!

- Upa is the first female descendant of the previous matriarch of her tribe. Her grandmother, Vohm Zuvhe, had only four sons. The first three left home, leaving Vohm'sae to remain and act as chieftain in place of a matriarch. The other brothers have daughters, but two of them are now desceased, and Vohm'to hasn’t been seen in a few decades. Thus, the inheriting of the position falls to Upa.

- Because of Vohm'sae committing tabboo by bedding a Seeker woman, the small council of elders tasked themselves to naming and raising Upa after Vohm'sae had banished A'quislu. She still lived and spent ample amounts of time with her father, but the elder women of the tribe made sure she was raised to be fit enough to take her roll as their matriarch when the time came.

- It is not uncommon for Upa’s male tribemates to stay with the tribe well into their adulthood. She had many of them pining for her heart growing up, Rhaj'ir being one of the more persistent. Imagine Gaston as a male Miqo'te – he even has the stallion tail. She never returned his feelings (or any of the other males, truly), be he is still not-so-secretly convinced she will return home and be with him.

- Upa’s tribe had many ceremonies to celebrate different events, most of which featured a sacred dance as either entertainment or was simply part of the ritual. Upa was taught from a very young age, these dances, and when she reached her twelfth summer, she finally partook in them. She does not speak of this openly, as these dances are serious and not something to make light of. She is actually incredibly good at them, too.

- Despite her Seeker heritage and the sin of her father looming over her head, Upa was treated exceptionally well by her people. Her title as matriarch surely protected her from public ridicule and the cruelty of the other children, but whisperings in the shadows of the trees were not uncommon.
