What season best represents your character? How do they feel about each of the seasons?

Honestly, looking back on Elio's emotional and spiritual journeys - the Spring season would best represent him; more specifically, the Vernal Equinox. In the same way that the aforementioned equinox is a transitional period from Spring (when everything is growing) to Summer (when everything is in full bloom), so is Elio's transition from "An emotionless boy who finally found his sense of self" to "A radiant and passionate genius whose heroism, charisma, wisdom, and boundless imagination paved a way to a brighter future for both himself and those around him".

Speaking of seasons, Elio has very strong opinions about them - being nearly impossible to properly summarize outside of "I wish it was longer!" or "I'm not feelin' it...". Typically, it also means he's ranked them using the aforementioned summation, which hasn't changed over the years - regardless of where he traveled. (Autumn [😁] ⮕Summer [😊] ⮕Winter [😐] ⮕Spring [🤢🤮])
