Gonna be writing Bad Batch alphabets and I'm starting with Echo because I'm in an Echo mood just thought I might post this announcement it'll probably be up some time tomorrow
And also (´;ω;`) for Lithuania please >< (More sad heads for him damn I love it...)
(´;ω;`): What brings your muse into a state of
depression? The guilt. The pure guilt about everything he’s done, sometimes stuff he’s been through, but mostly the guilt of the things he did. He’s guilty feeling for how he reacted during some historical periods or actions he took. Especially in the 1900s. He struggled with a lot then. Bad memories too of abuse, mistreatment, hurt, ache, harm that he’s been through, but to a lesser extent. He’s insecure and wonders how surrounding nations have given a chance to forgive him for some of what he’d done but he knows also he can only grow from the past. He is well equipped with coping mechanisms though so he can handle these thoughts well with positive coping skills, mostly.
10 Facts About Kevin
The average height for a 10 year old boy is around 4'5" (134.62 cm). Kevin, however, is very short for his age - standing at around 3'9" (114.3 cm). Because of that, he's often mistaken for being much younger than his actual age. Though it honestly doesn't make much of a difference considering he's not actually human, he's a dragon.
Most of the bonds Kevin has formed with others thus far have involved food. In his first encounter with Jack, they had fish cooked over a campfire (the first dinner he had with another person in hundreds of years). Nicholas gave him some honey candies one day and since then, he gives the boy a few candies whenever he visits. Lucy, Lucas, and Karma didn't personally give Kevin anything but when they all met at the Guardian Tower, the first thing they did was have breakfast.
Kevin has never learned to swim nor has the desire to learn and yet he enjoys relaxing near the ocean, much to the dismay of his caretakers (Jack refuses to leave the boy alone near any source of water).
Despite barely showing any outward emotions, Kevin is far more emotional that he appears to be. His most common moods are either curious or annoyed.
It's not that he doesn't know how to emote his emotions outwardly, the boy simply chooses to limit his expressions (there's numerous reasons why he does, from "better observing others" to "having better control over his emotions in general"). Most of the time, he purposely uses gestures to clearly communicate how he feels (narrowing eyes, tilting his head, shrugging shoulders), though there are instances where he'll express himself accidentally - usually when he's confused or curious, where his brows will pinch together and his lips thin into a line.
Whether it's from the many years he's spent alone or the fact that he's still a young child (of nearly 1000 years but let's just ignore that), Kevin likes being held - not that he'll say that. More so, he likes being picked up or clinging onto someone's back by those who are much taller than him. As such, the 2nd Commander - Gavin Fern - is his favorite due to the ginger being nearly 7ft tall.
Summer is Kevin's least favorite season due to it being too hot. That wouldn't be much of a problem though if he didn't refuse to take his scarf off (or at the very least, didn't wear it over the lower half of his face). He'll still wear lighter clothing but the long and thick striped fabric is non-negotiable.
The reason his ears are slightly pointed has nothing to do with the fact he's a dragon, it's because Kevin learned to change his appearance from an elf (one of his past caregivers).
He's fully aware of the fact some people find him adorable and often uses that to his advantage when he wants something. Nicholas hates the fact Jack taught Kevin how to use "puppy eyes", Samantha being the only one immune to it. He's also aware that many find him to be very scary, even if he's just a child (the perks of being one of the strongest creatures to exist, even if he's one of the last ones alive).
Kevin's character was created from a dream I have when I was 15 years old. It was a very strange dream that I still remember it to this day and I'm partly convinced it was because the house was haunted. They were sad that they'd be forgotten, I told them I wouldn't forget them. And thus, Kevin was born.
