Notice: This tag was created over a MONTH ago. I started it promptly, dropped it just as promptly, and it's been sitting in all its five-paragraph Mulan-gif glory draft form for five lonely weeks.
But I always finish what I start. So here we are.
Mordred Kenhelm
DANGER
Mordred gets exhilarated by imminent danger. I use animal comparisons sparingly, but I know I've used a horse comparison for Mordred more than once. And that's because, when he catches wind of danger, he acts like a stallion spoiling for a fight. His body tenses, his nostrils flare, his head tosses, every inch of him is keyed up with pure excitement. So when I write Mordred in a situation of high tension/danger, I generally include a reference to his elevated state of mind.
There's one exception I can think of, and that's the moment before Mordred's first war experience. And that's for two reasons. 1: Mordred knows war means death. Death is not a joke. Death is not something to be excited about for him. He's seen it and he hates it. 2: Fenris is in the war with Mordred. Fenris could die. Mordred could die, and it wouldn't matter so much; but if Fenris dies, Mordred's whole world will die. So there's no excitement in Mordred before his first battle. Just pure, numb panic.
WORDS
Mordred loves words. He loves to play with them, tease with them, and, um, sass with them. If Ceristen's everyday vocabulary was put on a bar graph, Mordred's bar would be three times as high as anyone else's.
