what is your character like in arguments?
Unbiased most of the time trying to see both sides and understand the motives and such. Rather annoying in that sense?
Saros: he's a bit prideful and argumentative, a little bit too stubborn to realize his way of things is not always the right way (mostly a negative trait from myself cause Saros is just a self-insert at the end of the day)
Sun: he gets waaaaaay too emotionally invested, even if it doesn't make sense to. arguments with him usually end up leaving him frustrated and in tears, no matter what the nature of the argument was or whether or not it ended in his favor.
Sourire: he never gets loud or snap but boy does he become stern and broody for a little while during and after the ordeal. that being said, he's much more of a defuser than any of my other OCs because he focuses on finding common ground rather than defending his point or proving the other person wrong.
Aberration: this MFer will start swearing and shouting like he's Sol Badguy from Guilty Gear, he does not know the meaning of "back down" long until after the argument ends and he has a chance to think things over with a clearer head. he does eventually apologize once things have settled down, at the very least
to others: he usually just wont, though hed make a lot of snide remarks and annoy the other party, and especially if hes working with them, hed try to be the bigger person and get things done ahead of them
to hung: although they love eachother a lot, obviously they cant avoid the arguments, so when they do theyd usually just argue a bit and then stop and walk away, and Terror will usually just ignore him for the whole day, even if he still usually makes him lunch (although at the end of the day theyll make it up to eachother)
tap usually doesn't argue with people so if you somehow piss him off i wish you the best of luck
Blue will be polite, listen, try not to talk over, just very nice in general. He doesn't really like arguments, NOW LUCIA ON THE OTHER HAND. She will argue over shit just for fun, if she is OBJECTIVELY wrong she will not back down, and she is known to often end arguments by just escalating into a full-on fight LOL. She sees it as "I am right cause I KNOW I'm right, and I'm the smartest charr in the room."
Cetus is usually very calm and rational during arguments. If he isn't taking it seriously, he might be deliberately facetious or sarcastic, or say something just to get a rise out of the other party. But if Cetus is actually arguing, it's probably because he's spent time already thinking about every way this conversation could go and is constantly thinking about his goals here. He'll approach it in a variety of ways, usually changing his style to suit the person he's arguing against. For example, if he was to argue with Deepcolor, he would try to be very calm and rational. She doesn't respond well to emotional appeals or outbursts because of her seaborn nature, so he needs to think more like her and convince with rationalization. But if he were to argue with someone who deeply values others like Skadi, he would appeal much more to their emotions. Cetus shifts his style to one he believes would have the most success with whoever the other party is, usually after careful analysis of their character.
Gladiia is kind of like the final boss for all of his argument skills but even then he struggles to budge her. In the end she has to make the decision on her own, but during his argument with her is one of the rare times that Cetus slips and shows true desperation, simply letting his feelings take over rather than making a calculated play. Gladiia has the power to bring that out of him with her stubbornness, LOL
but yeah basically Cetus is the master of the persuasive essay he can pick an approach and then attempt to appeal to pathos ethos and logos
Hm if it’s my magical boy OC, Seiya: he will make a logical argument and argue fiercely. Tbh since most of my ocs don’t interact with people or other oc’s that aren’t mines, it’s hard to say. But my persona OC? They’ll argue if they see the chance? It’s more of if they see something that they don’t get, they’ll argue
absolutely horrible they start crying immediately
Daichi doesnt argue, he just crys.
Duìzhăng on the other hand stays very calm with a sharp undertone
Zheng usually avoids getting to that point, they'd rather agree to something even if they're not exactly fine with it than cause unnecessary division but of course that has its limits.
Raiden is a very "if it doesn't cross the line i'm willing to go to, then i don't have a reason to object" kinda person but they're more?? how do i phrase it, more volatile than most. if necessary even if they have agreed to something, they're willing to break that agreement. if they actually get to the point of arguments, they're definitely very emotionally driven but does have a sense for where logic is more important.
Cascade doesn't argue with anything, straight up. if she's told to do something, she will get it done regardless.
Empyrean is also usually very chill, arguments are few and far between but is definitely the second most logical of the bunch only behind Zheng.
Vitani also avoids arguments but for a different reason to Zheng, personally she gets a bit terrified of hearing people argue so she avoids it.
