Imma Cry I Don't Wanna Spend Money On This Game But GOROU QAQ - Tumblr Posts

Honestly that kokomi ask was everything but I can’t stop thinking abt gorou and his dumb puppy brain behind closed doors. When his banner comes out I’m gonna absolutely whale for him

Gorou is... not the brightest boy yes. Doggie brain makes a lot of his decisions for him, but perhaps the most significant is his tendency to mindlessly embarrass himself over his obsession -- well, it would, but he's too lacking in self-awareness to even be embarrassed, so it's sort of a blissful stupidity.

I mentioned this once before but his crush on a darling is so painfully obvious everyone is aware of it. His tail wags impulsively without him even realizing it, but it's so big and fluffy everyone else notices. His excitement shows on his face, his ears perk up and his eyes go wide, pupils blowing up big and grinning like an idiot. When he comes into a room where he thinks darling is he kinda "??? :)" and then when he's told they're not there you see his ears fall to the side and his tail drops down. It's so, so, so painfully obvious. But oh? Darling isn't here now, but they're telling him darling will be here in a few minutes? Well, better stand next to the window, wagging with ears perked once again, waiting for darling to enter his line of sight so he can run out and latch onto them. He's always getting gifts and picking up things darling might want. Always brightens up and perks his ears and butts in on conversations when he hears darling's name. Again, it's literally obvious. Everyone knows.

That being said, that also translates to that doggie aggression when needed. Again, he has no self-awareness and no embarrassment, even if he's giving you and everyone else around him massive secondhand embarrassment. He has no hesitation to make confrontations. If he overhears a conversation but -- gasp, they're talking badly about darling?? He curls his hands into fists and puffs his cheeks out in a pout, flattening his ears to his head and tail stiffening, and confronts the offender, how dare they talk badly like that?? Don't they know how perfect and wonderful his darling is?? They're just jealous.

Although the most embarrassing part, where the lack of self awareness or shame is the most painful for you, is probably the possessiveness. Shamelessly glaring and growling at people. Coming up to people to ask them about their conversations with you without a hint of shame.

And, of course, the instincts that come out of physical urges. He's just self-controlled enough to not like, hump your leg in public, but he does get cuddly and hugs a lot even in front of people. Can be very quickly conditioned/trained to you putting out and cupping your hand so he can rest his chin on it, or raising your hand and he'll tilt his head down for pats/rubs.

Basically boy has shiba appearance but he's got that golden retriever heart going on.
