Funny you bring this up because that’s been something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately too for writing purposes. Like the most obvious one would be light sensitivity because of his eyes, but I also agree with you and feel like his skin would become much more sensitive to everything (touch, light, the wind). It’s hard for him to get comfortable and enjoy somethings like certain clothing fabrics because it can exhaust him. Although you can’t tell me he wouldn’t love to have someone run their fingers through his hair, give him a gentle scalp massage – putty in your hands I tell ya.
I also personally think he’s got a taste for blood and flesh, but not as much as a typical t-virus infected BOW, but it’s still there laying beneath the surface and he has to keep it in check.
Also the uroburos – a part of me wonders if those wormies are wriggling around constantly under the surface or if he’s got like little pockets in his body where they harbor.

We use emoji combinations because many of us are fictives with distinctive names, and we don’t want signing our names to make unrelated posts show up in character tags or searches.
🔫🦢 specifically represents me, with the gun representing my nature as a soldier, and the swan representing my connection to sea birds (specifically herons).
Maybe my system should do that but sometimes were on computers and cant get emojis
You can! It’s magic! Hold down the windows key and press the period/full stop key at the same time and it’ll pop up an emoji window! 🕷️🛠️ showed us how to do it
My “computer” is a chromebook and i dont have emoji on a few chromebooks lol
It’s a rather nuanced issue that I’m not very educated on, so take my words with a pinch of salt, but I’m inclined to think that these people generally have this issue for two reasons.
1) They do not have very strong self-control, and falsely believe that because *they* would consider acting on those thoughts that others would as well. 2) They are within a culture that imposes the idea of thought purity, or the kind of dogma that ‘sin’ starts with ‘impure thoughts.’ In that kind of culture, even if you get away from believing in sin, you can still hold that framework when understanding morality.
I understand. Thoughts can be upsetting. But, understanding that the vast majority of thoughts one has are completely involuntary, one can better appreciate how our character is determined by the thoughts we place value enough to act on.
Individuals who understand the difference and yet propagate this kind of message anyways…? Those people’s motives are rooted in control. As soon as someone can make you feel guilty, they are able to use that primal urge to fit in to get you to do as they please.
