He/They are an earth genasi with green stone skin, and a dark purple crystal hair on the shorter end of things. They’re wearing an awful lot of leather that looks like they’ve been wearing it for a very, very long time.
Ashton saying they realized they might be getting shit kicked out of them so people would… watch and pay attention (to them, for once). That it hurts Fearne didn’t really care.

Trying not to think about how Ashton’s worst fear is that daring to break time and space will eventually break them in turn—that one day all of Ashton’s reckless, chaotic magic will catch up to them and they’ll finally “reap what they’ve been sewing”—

In the midst of the party’s shock and Imogen and FCG wanting to recast calm emotions, Fearne is the only one to really see what Ashton needs. That they don’t need coddling or anyone else trying to fuck with their brain more. She steps in and says no, there’s space for this. Not everything needs to be subdued and quieted and contained. She sees his pain and his anger and all she says “let him.” Just let him do it. That quiet validation says so much.
as someone who’s graduating soon and going into clinical psych, taliesin calling fcg a “first year psych major who is clearly the problem” has me on the FLOOR like. that’s it that’s fcg’s whole deal i love it so much
like aside from asking all the stereotypical shrink questions, fcg is clearly coming at things from the angle of “i have an idea of what’s Healthy and i want to FIX people” instead of meeting people where they are and working with them to get to know themselves better and it! makes so much sense!! because they’re a robit who has been programmed to help others and they clearly have some very black-and-white thinking going on and ofc that would apply to their programmed purpose
and wrt to the moment fcg had with imogen last episode, it fits so well that they crossed a boundary without hesitation in the pursuit of that programmed purpose and honestly it didn’t seem like they were all that sorry when imogen confronted them?? and i’m so excited to see where that goes (and don’t get me started on the implications of imogen’s (understandable!) reaction to it or we’ll be here all day lol)
i’m also really excited about their existing relationship with ashton, who has also now been confirmed by taliesin to 1) not like telling anyone anything about themself and 2) like to think they know themself and really don’t. that’s just another confrontation/point of conflict waiting to happen on both their end and fcg’s end and i can’t wait aaa
