#so he tries to get rid of everythng that makes him homesick

[t4tdanvis]

Gene’s missing most of his memories from his life before the nether because his solution to feeling upset is to just, erase whatever’s making him feel that way about the nether. He can’t remember his mom’s face or her name, or the little street cat he used to sneak food to whenever he went on patrol, or how happy he was playing with Dante when they were little. He can’t remember how nice it felt to sit in the rain or what it was like laying in the grass to watch the stars, or how Dante would always come sleep in his room during storms and he’d pretend the thunder didn’t scare him too.

AUGH im gonna start . cryinf

#❄.txt #ask box #he just wants to go home and be normal. but he cant #so he tries to get rid of everythng that makes him homesick #erasing everything about himself until he can barely remember his own name #just to have the illusion of everything being fine #with my own hc that he cant really erase memories all he can do is hide them very very deep so that theyre nearly impossible to find #he keeps remembering bits and pieces and trying to shove them down and forget again #because it hurts to remember everything hes lost because he cant travel back in time and go back #when he finally stops erasing his memories its like theres an empty space where his past should be #like his memories are a word on the tip of his tongue #just out of reach but he can feel that theyre there #im not crying u are #since u mentioned that he befriended a stray cat that he used to feed #now imagine gene and the cat but the end of the odyssey where odysseus comes home and he sees his dog again and its really heartwarming #and then the dog fucking Dies (and i begin crying) #ur welcome for the pain i have caused ❤
