send 👫 and i will write four headcanons about our muses - accepting / @blessed-by-blood​

1. cael doesn’t understand empathy (read: he has the emotional range of a withering houseplant), so he absolutely does not understand why isabelle is always willing to put herself at risk for the sake of other people. her kindness seems to extend to him initially as well, however, this changes as soon as she realises they are from two different worlds, and cael’s sole existence conflicts with everything she believes in, with every social norm or convention out there. he is selfish, he has no conception of sympathy, and he is apathetic to a fault. he has the power to change the course of history (the queen’s blood), which is the key element that louis, everyone, needs to finally progress on their quest towards a brighter future, but he refuses to cooperate simply because he is not interested. humans and revenants alike, they do not concern him. this would often result in disagreement between them (not that cael truly cares). 

2. cael does not remember isabelle’s name nor face, which is why even after they have been acquainted, he might forget who she is. this is partly due to the intensified severity of his amnesia after inheriting the queen’s blood, and mostly due to his habit to isolate himself. despite the fact that he possesses a monstrous photographic memory, he has always had trouble remembering faces and names ever since he was a child. he struggled with telling different people apart or recreating their supposed image inside his head as everything would eventually dissipate into nothingness, and he would be surrounded by strangers again. this only worsened when he reached adulthood. he does not know who is who. a foe? or a friend? or neither? who are you? he began isolating himself because of this. unless he makes an effort to engrave someone’s existence into his soul, he will treat everyone with the same apathy, detachment and indifference, sometimes even hostility. 

3. cael prefers to work alone, so when isabelle decides to tag along (for whatever reason, it could either be she wants to make sure he does not change his mind halfway after agreeing to help them, or she is skeptical about his trustworthiness which is totally valid, or whatever), isabelle will have to look after herself because cael is the worst partner. he will not wait for her, he will not help her, and he will act purely out of self-interest; everything he does will only serve his purposes. at the same time, cael does not expect anything from isabelle. she can do whatever she wants as long as it does not interfere with his goals. if she, out of the goodness of her heart (bless her), chooses to aid cael, he will not be grateful for it and there will be no special treatment. but at least, he will not be her enemy. isn’t that a huge relief.  

4. isabelle reminds cael of cruz, especially when they first met. in fact, he almost mistook isabelle for cruz if not for cruz’s blood still hot on his hands. this resemblance agitates him, causing his body to react in the most physical way ever as his mentality is forced to piece broken fragments of unwanted memories back together. cruz was an anomaly in his life. she was an unexpected factor that somehow managed to touch even the most rotten part inside him, breathing life into the growing chaos. he was made to feel things when he was with her, to feel the changes. it was unfamiliar. it made him lose sight of who he was. so he did the sensible thing— the only thing he was capable of, the only thing he was created for: destroy her to prevent the spread of madness, to put things back into their rightful place. even now he has forgotten all of those, cael would usually avoid staying alone with isabelle to stop himself from losing control.
