I love the compare and contrast between those two.
Victor is kind hearted but he’s also emotionally cut himself. So he’s still kind, but it’s not quite out of care. The care is deep down but it’s complicated. As cheerful and kind as he appears, there’s a purposeful distance between him and the others. Meanwhile Andrew has a tougher exterior but when he’s kind he fully means it. He judges people easily and getting his kindness out isn’t easy, but as seen with plants and animals, he’s very sweet when he’s comfortable.
I love it when characters break their first impressions. They’re both hypocritical in different ways that makes it so they’re not quite good guys or bad guys. They’re my favorite silly cringefail criminals.
Yes!!!!!!! Tbh i don't really think Victor actually cares often, at least not about humans. He is kind but in a polite kind of way. I think learning Andrew is actually weak to compliments really rewired my brain, because I really really thought I was being too OOC for thinking that sometimes, and also...too innocent for his own good?? My jaw on the floor; he's perfect....sun & moon but they're actually inverted.... Silly guys who would understand eachother but after of a very long tortuous slowburn of thinking wrong about the other....
