💬 the mun behind the screen meme 🖤

It was a quiet morning with barely a sound to be heard as a certain wanderer made his way through Darkwoods shadows.

This never got old, didn't it? Running away like this. Really though, what choice did Beleth have? He knew very well by now he couldn't stay somewhere forever. (As if he actually had anywhere to go for the matter...)

But still... "Those blasphemous..."

It'd be best if he kept his frustrated grumbles to himself. For now he had to focus.

That was until someone or something else draped in red caught his eye. Another one of those vile heretics? No, they couldn't be, not with the way they were dressed. A monster?

Either way, it didn't matter. They would felled all the same.

Breaking the silence, the feline jumped out of the bushes and dashed towards the stranger, ax in hand.

MUNDAY QUESTIONS || Accepting

🐶 - What's your favorite animal?

Frogs!! Frogs are my favorite lil guys.

They don’t bother anybody, they don’t do nothin’, and they eat pests and bugs all day !

plus they’re silly looking and I just think they’re really neat :3

🐱 - Do you have any pets? 

I do! I have three dogs, and a cat.

Max, Millie, and Macy are my dogs, and Toshi is my blind cat.

Macy and Toshi are actually rescues I adopted as well. I used to work for an animal shelter and adoption center. 

Here’s some pics below cut just bc I lof thems: 

SYMBOL HEADCANON QUESTIONS.

🧬 : what did they inherit emotionally from their caregivers?

Well, Gangle's mom was never around growing up. And honestly as kind as her dad was to her in life, he was unintentionally a little neglectful too. Since he was a single dad trying to make ends meet. He was away a lot trying to work or FIND work. He suppressed a lot of his own stuff to keep from stressing Gangle out. But in turn it kinda... Did that anyway. Bc Gangle is very emotionally intelligent in the fact she could pick up on his stress and his sadness. And it was like-- She was either alone all the time, or when he WAS around, she could just tell he was miserable and stressed the entire time. So the air always had this doom and gloom sorta feel to it even when her dad tried to cover it up.

I do think she got a lot of her own issues from him bc of everything too. Even if he didn't mean for it to happen like that. She's very insecure and unsure of herself. Very low self-esteem. And as emotional as she is, she's bad about suppressing or hiding a lot of things as well. Which, ding ding ding, daddy dearest did as well.

🕶 : what lie do they tell themselves to survive?

Well, it used to be "someone will find me and / or this whole thing will end eventually"... But I believe as time has passed, I think it's turned into a "I may not be where I thought I'd be, but I have people that care about me and a place that's technically my own, and I'm okay with that."

Her mindset very much has gone from hopeful wishing to be found and that eventually they all can return to a life that was "normal" in some way... To now it's like "Things suck but I'm slowly finding ways to be okay with that and enjoy what I DO have now."

Can't exactly sit and mope and keep setting yourself up for disappointment. Might as well just love the people you have around you and learn how to be okay with the circumstances as they unfold.

🩹 : what actually helps them heal, even if it's unhealthy?

GETTING. IT. OUTTTT.

Whether it's just, blowing up all at once over something small. (aka the unhealthy way of getting things off ur chest).

Or talking something out with someone she trusts.

Talking through the big emotions she feels even if whatever is stirring said emotions is "silly", helps her sooo much in the long run. And it helps her come forward or stand up for herself about more things more confidently than before as well.

HONESTY ASKS -- NO LONGER ACCEPTING

Fingers currently busy with carefully sewing a button back on to his shawl, all but once seem to twitch at the question. Then he stops outright.

Despite him not being able to emote much past his body language, it was clear by the way his mismatched gaze drifts off to something else across the room, that he was thinking over the question rather hard.

".... I can't say it hasn't... Crossed my mind before... Though... If I'm honest. I'm not sure what I'd even do, if I were to be given such a freedom... I don't believe the world is made for things like us... In a way, I'd fear that it would be worse out there, than in here..."

Growing quiet for a few moments, his gaze returns to the sewing needle between his fingers. Then, he begins his work again.

"So... I'm not sure."
