I think it’s really easy to dislike Sel as a Edgy Emo Boy trope if you take him too seriously instead of just looking at him like the goofy ass kid he is. Allow me to do you this service.
Reasons Selwyn Kane is objectively silly:
- Wears all black all the time. He is a Merlin but he does not have to do this. This is a conscious choice. If his hair wasn’t naturally black he would dye it, I know this to be true.
- Rips trees out of the ground when he’s angry. I understand this can look stupid if you take it seriously, but it’s actually just hilarious.
- Plays the violin. This is obviously a normal thing to do, but in combination with The Way He Is it’s like. Yeah okay naturally that’s his instrument
- Classics major. Exact same thing as above.
- Does not use people’s nicknames even if that’s what everyone else calls them. He’s simply Too Formal (19 years old)
- Does the last 3 things I mentioned, but still goes out of his way to make fun of Bree for not smoking weed, because he is simply So Cool.
PLEASE feel free to add more to this
