you get riz gukgak so well 👍👍

thank u!! he really kinda is all of my favourite character things rolled into one package (negotiation of principles/investigator-truth seeker-negotiator with reality and the narrative/obnoxious character whose narrative reward for participating in the story is getting to be even more authentically obnoxious/deeply and hauntingly aroace

#not art #everything else abt him is also compelling so Im just eating well while crying over here #the aroace part I believe from the bottom of my heart the moment he bribed a girl in freshman year First Day Of School to eavesdrop for him #In The Girl's Bathroom. like the decision itself isnt far off from a lot of noir stuff trapp's character in mentopolis did the same #but the supreme lack of awareness of what that decision says abt you in a social setting. now That's aroace #the only reason I dont read him as agender too is bc he didnt straight up waltz in there lmao #honestly bouncing off of that I also thinks folks sometimes downplay or buff off how cringe riz is... but its my favourite thing on earth #esp. in tandem with the Everything else abt him. theres an insistence in the genres he pulls from on the greater good and losing #ur real self in the work and being maybe strange but above all The Guy Who Gets The Job Done. and riz pushing the limit of that is awesome #like as a character I feel like some of it is like yeah I do get the job done. if it kills me even. how Strange do I get to be #or is it just being strange in a domineering and mysterious magnetic way. I will be cringe actually deal with that for my service #this and the part of his character that's yknow. Living While Goblin. that's a deeply compelling dynamic to me #anyways uhhh once again typing huge paragraphs abt this guy lmao. this happens forever I let it #anyways for the reason of spy theming and information dealer if u do class swap AU I propose bard!riz #u know. what is disguise if not a sister to stealth (<- extremely transgender sentence to say)
