yknow i put a lot of these into my fics, so not as much to say outright here, but i'll give it a shot!

i do hc val as poly in an unhealthy way. he has strong and different feelings for both angel and vox, but he's too possessive and jealous of them both. and also somewhere on the genderfluid spectrum in terms of presentation.

i think he is also perpetuating the cycle of abuse, but as to how that came about, im pretty open to different interpretations
