#simon zigvolt

Loud as his father when he demands to be heard. Keeps finding ancient instruments in abandoned castles. Clings to his sisters when he inevitably gets himself in danger. Craves grass and schedule. Best listener you'll ever meet. Content with the background.

-

Ace: “Sebek is on his ‘praise waka-sama’ agenda again.”

Simon, out of the blue: “Waka-sama!!”

Deuce, wide eyed: “…Did- you just-?”

Simon, flustered: “…echo… sorry.”

-

Responding to 🔆anon’s question:

You know how some people just start buffering when they’re in pain? That’s Simon with a brain freeze.

🌱

Simon, voice hoarse: “I regret my choices…”

Azul, writing something down: “I would assume as much, considering you asked for tea instead of hot chocolate. Speaking of, did something happen that I’m not yet aware of?”

Simon: “Me ‘n ‘bek switched places yesterday as a bet… no one ended up noticing, actually, but I am in pain.”

Azul, stopping writing mid sentence:

-

🌱 anon (I exist again!!!!)

Hi anon!

-

Simon: “‘bek, packing a sword’ll get you stopped at the TSA…”

Sebek, placing a sword into his suitcase: “Stopped at what?”

Simon, pausing: “I’m sorry, you don’t have to deal with AIRPORT SECURITY? Is there not a mirror version or something??”

Sebek: “Simon, what nonsense are you blabbing about this time?! Waka-Sama will be waiting on me!-“

Simon, suddenly VERY loud: “I got a weighted crocodile plush stopped at airport security because of the beans in it! They thought Reginald Chomps had a BOMB hidden in his tummy! They took my FUCKING CHILD Sebek! And you can just BRING A SWORD IN YOUR BAG????”

Sebek, watching his almost silent brother snap about tsa: 😶

-

I have been traveling a lot. So I made this.

🌱

Sebek, please.

Cooking for his friends/family is one of the primary things.

Simon bites sometimes. Not hard, it doesn’t ever hurt, but he can show affection by just.. gnawing on someone’s arm or something. (The crocodile instincts are winning)

Anyways yeah silly guy who I will probably post more facts about.

[Diasomnia - Kitchen]

Simon was humming to himself, making himself pasta for dinner (before Lilia could make ‘dinner’ for everyone else). Glancing over to the doorway, he froze up seeing his brother watching him.

Sebek: “Simon, I didn’t know you were capable of singing!”

Sebek stood, eyes wide with surprise. Simon didn’t miss a beat, responding without thinking while looking back to the pasta sauce.

Simon: “I didn’t know you were capable of being quiet enough that I couldn’t hear you. We both learned things today.”

Despite his wish to retort, Sebek stayed quiet. Simon glanced over once more, seeing the other’s face filled with… rage? No, he looked determined… both? He looked like he was trying to gain Simon’s favor-

It hit Simon like a ton of bricks. Sebek was being quiet for him, so he would get spaghetti. He commended the effort.

Simon: “…You can have half of my pasta, I made too much for one person.”

The relief on Sebek’s face was enough to make Simon giggle, as he began humming as he finished up dinner. They may not get along most of the time, but having to eat Lilia’s food brings people together.

Aw~

-Simon’s first opinion on Sebek was.. complicated. The world he came back from had no magic (similar to earth), so needless to say his reaction was ‘what do you mean fae are real and also you’re a knight in training?’ Also, Simon was low key scared of Sebek. Not Malleus, just Sebek. They took a lot of time to get closer to each other (Simon had to get noise canceling headphones before they finally got somewhere). But now they’re really close surprisingly! Their dynamic is ‘Excited Rambling + Happily Listening’

-For friends, he hangs out with the first years a lot. Also, he’s surprisingly close to Azul of all people? They’re both in the board game club, but Simon takes words as literal (making him good for wording on contracts) and has a VERY high attention to detail. He has caught mistakes on spreadsheets that no one else has. Azul pays him in thaumarks and hot chocolate (because he doesn’t officially work at the lounge, he just gets called in from time to time for his skill sets.)

-For such a quiet guy, Simon has CHOICE WORDS for his brother about the prejudice. The first complete conversation that Simon ever had with him was:

Simon: “I’m sorry, why does *fantasy racism* actually exist? I thought that was just a d&d thing…”

Sebek: “Wh- how dare you-!”

Simon, cutting him off: “Sebek your input is as useful as a paper mache bomb shelter right now, please shut your mouth.”

Sebek has not mentioned it in front of him since. It may be for the best considering the words Simon does say may not be as… pleasant as his demeanor lets on.

-His favorite flavor is peanut butter! Chocolate is a close second.

🌱

100% Lilia heard that insult going off and he just fell to the ground laughing.

When Simon speaks, it’s more often than not broken up. He understands language and can speak perfectly fine, but he chooses to use the minimum amount of words possible. Mostly he uses sign language.

“Wh.. How’d you..?” (“What? How did you do that?”)

Simon also has an incredible singing voice. He never chooses to use it (he is very scared of singing in front of people) but sometimes you can catch him humming if you’re lucky.

TLDR- Simon is the quiet to Sebek’s loud.

P.S. If you want any specific info on Simon or little Headcanons I have, let me know! I need to expand on him.
