#I also have always hc-ed neros eyes a different shade of green

[akampana]

Some people ship Gilgamesh with Nero. How do you think Arturia would react to this?

I don't think she would be particularly affected at first sight, but as she and Nero are so much alike... I think she might think about it in spite of herself and get confused at some point.

There are a number of ways to interpret this but based on your ask I think it’s from an established relationship!GilArt, yeah? :)

Something Arturia learned after the long long journey she had to get through to get to a point that wasn’t antagonistic with Gil is that: he doesn’t lie to her, ever. Not as anything poetic, nor a romantic oath, but deception is simply beneath him.

If she ever did doubt, she’d mull it over for a while, at least until Gil notices and points it out. That’s when she asks him.

“Your affections for me, do they still stand?”

And she’d know whatever he answered is his truth.

She’d probably be satisfied with just that answer, but in case Gil’s curiosity wins out and he asks what prompted the question, well. He’d admonish her for letting the “mongrels’” words get to her, then reinforce in her mind that his love is beyond physical, and that she should already know that. (Besides, she and Nero may have similar features, but everything else is quite different.) He’d probably even take personal offense that she doubted at all, get a bit angry, but by the next day he’d be finding new ways to express his feelings so she’d never doubt again. Arturia would do the same, a bit more discreetly though.

Thank you for the ask!

(And just to reinforce this, people can absolutely ship this if they want to :3 this is just my interpretation of how I think things will go in my Chaldea)
