🍓🍒!!

𝐅𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐓 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒. //   𝒏𝒐 𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒑𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈.

🍓  :    how is my muse typically seen by others?  does it ring true to who they really are?  does their reputation matter to them?

It is not difficult to conceive nor pinpoint how others perceive Gilgamesh. A tyrant, a god-king, warlike and martial, mythically described as both a ‘goring wild bull’ and a shepherd to his people. He not merely exudes power but embodies it, both as something oppressive and protective, all-encompassing in the sense that it is overwhelming and dominating in its impression. Therefore the effect he gives often leaves little room for else — he is a King before he is a man. One would expect an entity capable of defying the gods themselves and carving out the path of Kingship he so chose would have an Ego and indomitable selfhood so pervasive and commanding that he would indeed be the first Hero of mankind.

Does it ring true? Certainly. But it is the whole truth? No.

By his people he was feared and respected both as an authoritative and protective force, and by the gods as the paragon of the hubris and strength which characterized mankind. And though he does often present as a King first and human last, that is not to deny his humanity. It is through understanding human happiness, invention, and desire that he so thoroughly comprehends the hearts of men, shepherds them in the proper direction, and safeguards their future. It is not through a lack of understanding that he comes to be their arbiter; it is a through a thorough comprehension and stolid objectivity, repressing his love of them, so they may have the right to proper judgement. Gilgamesh is subsequently not a man of pretense; his marked loathing of fakes extends not merely to tools, but to personal integrity and artifice. Regardless, what need would he have to lie, to hide? What matter would others expectations have upon him, who defied the very purpose of his creation for what he deemed the ultimate purpose? Gilgamesh has stated it himself: His being a King and the God’s wish for him to be one have no correlation. He would have made himself ruler irrespective of what the heavens decided. Neither external expectation nor reputation hinders him in the way he decides to execute his Kingship — rather, it is purpose.

To quote a past headcanon:

(...)Gilgameš sees something measurelessly worthwhile in mankind worth preserving and nurturing, even if doing so requires actions viewed as morally reprehensible by external forces in order to set it onto what he deems to be the “right path”. Even if that leads to him becoming resented as he performs the means through which this may be achieved.

Ergo, as I have stated this in previously, and in his document itself (‘to out monster the monster of man, subsume all morality, and become hell itself’) — Gilgamesh is both humanity’s protector and executioner, its arbitrator and reaper. He gives no ear for the opinions of others and regards only his own standards to be absolute, because his frame of mind is one that exists on an axis beyond god-human reference. He foresees what is necessary to ensure mankind’s prosperity. If he is aware of the actions necessary to ensure the flourishing of the human race, then what reason has he to heed those of (whom he believes to be) limited perspective end experience? 

On a ‘superficial’ level, his reputation — what the masses think of him — does not matter. But for Gilgamesh to shirk his entire being as it is externally conceptualized, I believe, would be tantamount to him discarding his authority. His legacy, what lasts and persists after him, is indeed a matter of importance. Gilgamesh’s reputation as a king in future generations, was to him, a matter of course. It becomes little wonder why later kings cited him as a divine brother, judge, and guide in times of warfare and a source of catharsis in grief. Gilgamesh commands respect, not merely demands it, because what he has done inspires it. What he has influenced upon mankind is part of his role as King, and has withstood the test of time for good reason.

But reputation does not influence Gilgamesh’s actions. His own reputation should move others to action. To clamber toward his station (however ‘fruitless’), to improve as an existence within his Garden whose soil he has tilled. It is through seeing a star that one understands what brilliance is and aspires toward it, burgeoning innovation to bridge that chasm. This is what he means when he declared that he is not only a King that governs, but a North Wind that teaches through hardship. The struggle he engenders will be a motivator for growth in the human race. Being a storm to remonstrate humanity, a reaper to prune that which impedes it, culling mankind so it may prosper — what an individual thinks of him doing these things matters not. He does not rule for the purpose of one man, but for the entirety of mankind.

Quod erat demonstrandum, how Gilgamesh chooses to exercise his authority is unhindered by any outside influence. It is something that exists beyond both praise and censure, scorn and derision. This is not to say that Gilgamesh is wholly unable to consider outside perspectives. It is a matter of what he deems worthy enough to move him — or something or someone being influential enough to do so regardless. 

Being a king is not merely what defines Gilgamesh — Gilgamesh gives definition to the concept of kingship in itself. 

And the King is to judge his people, not the other way around.

🍒 :   how much does my muse value companionship?  do they constantly keep people around them,  or do they prefer to be alone often?  do they have or desire to have many friends?  do they see every meeting as an opportunity to make a new friend?

❦ okay listen...i vehemently oppose the idea of making kirei someone's father figure given his track record, but i do think he acts like a weird uncle sometimes. or a guardian. towards her. and i just think it'd be nice if she could come to him for solace.

send a ❦ if you'd consider shipping our muses.

i can definitely see their relationship similar to his own with rin except mimi is more like a deeply disturbed, overly traumatized version of rin who is this close to snapping

@kyrieleisen​:

💋 on roll of his knuckles though, sike !

kissy meme.

on kirei’s obscenely large hands? the great king of heroes thinks not.  although the priest was his master, it was gilgamesh who pulled the strings-- and by no means was he going to kiss the other man’s hands as if he were some measly helot.

no, instead he asserts his kingly authority over the other man as he always did-- walking over and grabbing the other man’s chin without delay, wasting no time as he brought their lips together before quickly parting them and addressing the taller man.

“stick to your sermons, kirei. you’re a much better priest than an object of affection.”

#gil vc: i wasn't even turned on. what a pity #kyrieleisen

@kyrieleisen​  ∕  🧨

“What are the terms for a confession?”

He projects his voice, standing a few feet away from the other. One arm was lax at his side, hand limp with fingers all but fully furling in towards his palm. His thumb rubbed itself against the soft flesh of his index, pricking into the skin every so often as he does. His other hand since buried itself into the confines of his slacks’ pocket, balling up into a tight fist as soon as it was fully concealed.

Kira tilted his head, slow and almost as though he had planned it to happen in that very moment. It’s as if he were reading off a script within his head (a passion project that he slaved away at for a few nights, pondering what he should say if “this” was said versus if “that” was said, instead.) with his eyes, though tempted to pan towards the floor, staring straight ahead. It’s not out of trust that he doesn’t disregard the rules of stage play (never look at your partner’s feet; it breaks the immersion.) but, rather, because he doesn’t think it applies to his current situation.

They’ve talked more than just a few handful times before-- each conversation Kira leaves feeling a little more and more... heavy. He wouldn’t refer to it as insecurity nor as discomfort, but it wasn’t anything he would attribute to a positive experience, either. Kirei was, for all intents and purposes, a simple man in Kira’s eyes. But... but there’s always something people like him have chosen to hide.

It’s a fact of life: no one can be as dull and boring as they claim. Kira knew that from both personal and just basic, worldly experience.

“I’m interested in participating,” he offered as an explanation once having the other’s attention. His head remained in its slightly cocked angle, Kira’s gaze relaxed yet didn’t bother to lock eyes with him. “I... have a few things to get off my chest--”

“--because they’ve been bothering me.”

Now he began to rebuild his walls, putting them back together brick by brick, layer by layer, until he’s sore in the back, tired in the hands, and weepy in the eyes. There’s an air of anxiety he gives off (an aura of nervousness, one that’s only going to exemplified if he’s made to come forward, dragging his feet forward as he does.) as he slowly bows his head, after wards.

It’s as if he’s understanding, suddenly, of a mistake he’s just made. Like overstepping his own boundaries but with no choice but to accept it as is. Forget apologizing-- it’s something Kira doesn’t know if something as simple as a “I’m sorry,” would fix.

“I...” he started with his chin tucking itself in towards his neck, stopping a sigh from escaping in the meanwhile, “... I mean-- it’s... it’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while, been, uh, keeping me up at night.”

The hand from earlier, as dead as dead weight could be, gradually raised. Fingers wrapped around his upper arm in a small effort of comfort, rubbing up and down in tiny, little strokes. He swallowed.

“If--” he bit his lower lip, “--if it’s not too much trouble.”

He only looks at the older, his form almost handsome were it not for the similar hollowness in his eyes reflecting upon other. 

Is this a test? a dream? How odd that it were to happen to him of all people. 

He is a self controlled singularity of course, nothing would stave him off the path of being a righteous man, if at least for his father. But this devil who wears his face with age, is horribly confusing. 

 “A vision...?”

@kyrieleisen​ replied​: why did she have to add 'large' . scary priest would do just fine.

“Ah, did the little Master wound you in a tender spot? It seems not even a physical blow is necessary to strike you down. How woeful. ”

     ❝ BIG, HUGE and boring. Never ever met someone who hated fun so much. I guess there’s nothing wrong with being serious, or maybe being a little stern -- Sid is exactly like that, but at least there are some things in the world that make him happy and that he likes doing. Mister Kirei is exactly the kind of person who would stomp on a flower if he saw it growing out of the sidewalk. I guess it comes with the job -- like, with the whole religion thing. Humans haven’t really figured out space travel yet, so they’re awfully afraid of everything from the other side of their atmosphere. And then they scare themselves by making up stories about what they assume might be out there: space invaders and giant fiery asteroids and, um, god, or something. ❞

Cú:  Bad things keep happening to me, like I have bad luck or something. Kirei:  lancer, you don't have bad luck. The reason bad things happen to you is because you're a dumbass.
