Caesar's Links
"T.. Thanks.."
Rye's one of the few people that can probably get close to Caesar (literally) in the present- Caesar's always cared for Rye even when they were young, and was incredibly quick to defend Rye for her choices, even before everyone else did. Often feels indebted to Rye for her kindness, of which she insists is simply out of care for him (and it is!) in spite of who he is (was?). Adores her poems, even if he doesn't talk to her about it.
"I'll send you a care package. Please don't forget to eat, this time."
Rye cares deeply for Caesar as he was truly one of her only genuine friends when she was set to inherit the company that he in turn would inherit. While she doesn't regret her choice at all, she does regret the person Caesar became, especially because she remembers how kindhearted he was when he was younger; often cursing out that he took the hit of the burden for her. Often sends him food and care packages now as she knows he rarely leaves the house and does the bare minimum to take care of himself..
"W-who?... I.. Know that probably doesn't help my case at all.. But in complete honesty, I really didn't keep track of my models beyond 'bad' and 'workable', which. Oh, on the gods, why couldn't I just be better than this?!... This is exactly what I deserve.. I was always an ugly monster, even before this.. I'm sorry. I really am. It's probably too late for that."
"I... Well, worked for him! And. Now I don't. I really.. Can't say too much, I never met him... It was kind of weird, really, but.. It's in the past now."
"W-WHO? WAIT, is she the one who sent that one cat ONTO MY ROOF IN THE MORNING WHO SAID HE HAD A HIT ON ME? I-I... I know I did some bad things, but that's a LITTLE bit too far, d-don't you think..... P... Please just let me sit here and think about what I've done... It's already a lot to handle...."
"The exact type of savnic filth that I've had the misfortune to live through myself, but.. We actually had an order on him, but apparently now he merely hides and cries, and in spite of what he's done to others' sense of self worth, compared to others... If only everyone like him could have any sense of self-reflection. Some part of me even sympathizes with the state he's in. Ironic, isn't it."
"........."
One of the nephs absolutely dragged on Cherry's show- their show may have very well been the catalyst for someone to get the motivation to curse Caesar. Of all the things to hit Caesar leading towards his fall from grace, Cherry's show was one of the more influential- despite this, Caesar holds no anger towards Cherry (he in fact, believes they're right); if anything, Caesar is afraid of them and their fanbase, even in the present.
mistreating your models? tut tut
"...Well, t-this is.... This is kinda.. A-awkward.."
Admittedly doesn't fully remember Damascus when he DID work for him (but knows him pretty well from the files made on him after..), leading to Caesar being VERY worried and apologetic towards Damacus for. Well. How he was. What if.. They met up.. And became friends... Haha just kidding!! Unless... (flushed emoji)
modeled for caesar's agency until being cursed and consequently fired. sure hopes he doesn't run into caesar for any reason that would be crazy! they'd have to confront their past and new circumstances and the ways they have both changed! and maybe become....... friends......? :flushed:
