((Quick heads up that my portrayal of Ghost might seem a little inconsistent for a little bit. There are a couple things I'm not super satisfied with right now))

#.🪲#ooc #my main issue is that right now they can sometimes seem too... kirby-like i feel #like. in some cases i feel like if kirby was in the same situation as ghost i would write him fairly similarly #and that isn't good!! they might both be cute little baby gods made of void but their personalities are very different #ghost is more... reserved? ...and. also more intelligent sorry kirby AGSGDBS #and more analytical i think i'd say #and like. with kirby. you see him. you see how he acts. and you confidently go ''yep that's a child right there''#with ghost? not so much. or at least it shouldn't be that way #you should look at ghost and go ''i *think* that's a child?'' at first glance #just based on their appearance alone. because physically they ARE a child #(though even then if it's an hk character then they might not be certain since small adult bug species like sly's exist)#but then you see how strong they are and you read the things they wrote in their hunter's journal #and you start to wonder if maybe they're actually an adult?#but then you see them do something unmistakably childlike #and you're kinda just in this infinite loop of questioning until you just give up and accept that ghost is ghost #the people who actually know more about vessels and have met hollow are the only ones who really know ghost's age for certain. like hornet #because then they can see hollow and go ''okay so that's what your species looks like in its final adult molt''#and thus in comparison ghost is very obviously a child #though technically that won't work in the far future because ghost can't actually molt anymore #since they're void in a bug shape. not an actual bug anymore #but yeah. i consider ghost to be like a robot who has just started to develop sentience and emotions #they're very smart and mature and capable in a lot of things!#but they're still learning about emotions and stuff and are effectively like a child on that front #they've been alive for probably at least a century but all but a small portion of that life was spent being hollow #so they weren't really conscious of anything and don't remember much of that past now #it's only upon coming to hallownest and deepening their connection to void (and eventually becoming fully void) that they start to develop-#-thoughts and emotions #...and. i have just realized that i forgot to put the ooc brackets around *all* of these tags.#oh well rip lmao i don't feel like fixing that now agsdgdgs
