Guys. When Brick was introduced to the idea of behind the ear scratches, his entire world changed.
I’d imagine the tower was an absolute nightmare for the big rats. They’d occasionally run into things that could possibly hurt them or even worse, kill them. The Peppino clones to the regular enemies Peppino hits they all troubled the poor things and they never caught a break. And the only reason they stayed there cuz they were sorta trapped, once they entered they couldn’t leave or find an exit.
Brick ran into many things, many things he didn’t like and many things that did end up trying to kill him so he was DEFENSIVE. I’d imagine the reason he started chasing Gustavo was because he immediately thought he was gonna hurt him.
Once they started to fight Gustavo realized how fucking RUTHLESS Brick fought (of course because he was an animal but also cuz of the defense nature). So when they stopped, Gustavo wanted to make up with him.
Brick found out the tremendous glories of pets, he didn’t get any because….well….y’know he was a stray rat- So this feeling was something different. He actually felt pretty safe…which was new! He was cautious at first of course but he soon learned Gustavo wasn’t going to hurt him….he didn’t feel threatened by his presence anymore, he didn’t feel he had to hide like he did with other creatures. He felt relaxed. He felt he was actually going to be okay. And every time Gustavo were to pet him, he felt extremely emotional. He never felt this way, he never experienced this type of affection, or even affection at all!…..
I think Gustavo just naturally likes animals, so he tried to get close to him at first but realized he couldn’t, he had to build trust first. Which they did! Gustavo treated Brick like a sorta person, but also like a pet, where he’d pet him and such. He found it quite odd Brick knew how to smoke a pipe and how to cook for some reason- but he didn’t question it.
The more they grew, the more Brick started to like Gustavo. He saw him as someone he could finally feel safe with. Anything and everything in that tower could hurt him, but Gustavo?…It was a nice change of pace.
Brick is attached to Gustavo. I will die on this hill to say if he isn’t the type of pet to wait for you ALL DAY beside the front door for you to come back I don’t know what life is anymore.
That’s it. I wanted to ramble about Brick because I think he deserves more attention. We love him, he needs love, people, please treat this guy well he’s been through it.

you know that really comfy feeling you get after you take a shower or a bath and wrap up in a soft robe? i want to experience that with Foul Legacy SO badly.
just both of you washing up after a long day- you help Childe wash his hair, scrubbing his fluffy ginger mane with lightly scented shampoo, and he nearly falls asleep in the tub from your gentle ministrations. Foul Legacy also genuinely enjoys when you dry his hair, leaning into your touch and basking in the warm air from the hairdryer. only when he’s completely clean and dry do you go and take a shower for yourself, washing up and wrapping yourself in a comfy robe afterwards. you told Legacy that he could fall asleep without you, but he refuses because he wants his human to snuggle with!! he’s very drowsy and toasty by the time you exit the bathroom, curled up under a fluffy blanket, shaking his head every few minutes to stay awake.
when Foul Legacy sees you, he purrs sleepily and scoots over, raising the blanket so you can join him, before wrapping his arm around your waist and pulling you close. it’s cozy and warm underneath, being hugged by your lovely Abyssal moth monster while also under a blanket, still clean and comfy from your shower. you can hear soft, rumbling purrs in your ears, and if you reach up and scratch behind Legacy’s horn the purrs increase tenfold, his claws kneading the blanket. with a sleepy smile you cuddle closer to his chest so you can hear his heartbeat and promptly fall asleep- tomorrow morning is going to be full of soft trills and chirps when you both wake up, and Childe’s pleading expression for you not to go to work that day.
