He understands that, though he begins to see the unknown parts of him and the desert is drags out intense emotions. One thing Emmett hates about himself is his indebted relationship to his drugs. He wants to be cured yet he does not want a doctor for the fact that he rather keep it a secret between only himself. But the secret in itself scares him as suicidal thoughts flood in the absence of the Desert Flower. Usually this happens in the late hours of the night, for in the day comes the time of confidence and a cocky attitude, keeping his chin up and demanding respect through effort. It is then that Emmett carries himself the best. [h3]☠☺ [color=FFA500][i]Othen Perelyn[/i][/color] ☺☠[/h3][i]"I swear on some days, I just want to slap the silly war paint off his silly face... On other days, I bloody want to hug the brawny berserker."[/i] The two are rivals, there is no question about that, yet Emmett does not clearly despise the berserker. Instead, the boy comes off moreover annoyed by Othen's [I]tests of manhood[/I], or the fact that he loses his bets against him. They have clashed before as Emmett has adapted a short fuse and a hot-head due to his drug addiction, however it is not only that because the two also are both very stubborn. All in all though, Emmett never wants to see Othen go, strangely enough, the big man is Emmett's big hero. He just doesn't show it because the thirst to beat him just once in a match of hand-to-hand combat far exceeds feelings deep down. The closest at this point Emmett will get to friendly interaction is a teasing banter or mischievous prank. In conclusion, to Emmett's perspective, it is a love hate relationship. [h3]☺ [color=A9A9A9][i]Rook Warde[/i][/color] ☺[/h3][i]"Love my uncle, but I would also love some answers to my question. But that's the thing, I'm a little scared to ask those questions."[/i] What hurts the most to Emmett is to be so close to a man whose rumors circulate around the fact that he could have possibly killed his father. It is not right, not right at all, so you imagine how much harder it is to ignore the bad rumors. But he is a good mentor and great teacher, Emmett cannot deny it and he cannot let the naysayers get to his head. Yet he must instead hold his uncle responsible for everything he sees with his own two eyes. And so far the man has partly raised him with his mother, Emmett just wishes he could diminish the mysteries and boil down to just who his uncle. But no matter, the nephew trusts his uncle with his life or he would not embark on the journey in the first place. Emmett hopes the journey will not only his rite as man, but that it will show his uncle's true colors. [h3]☠♥ [color=C71585][i]Floure Camlo[/i][/color] ♥☠[/h3][i]"Both frustration and attraction... I wonder if she ever notices. Yet again, she is a fortune teller, they read people for coin."[/i] It is no surprise that a young attractive woman near the same age as Emmett would grab his attention, and grab it she does, tightly at that. Floure must sense it too if she is as intuitive as it seems, although Emmett has not verbally expressed the liking, his eyes say a lot has he has gave long unintentionally gazes to her form. But even her as a person makes him crack a smile on the inside. Other than the stares, he has not spared much more communication to her as he in fact fights himself to hide the expressions as much as possible. Emmett is not a romantic, and with his feelings, the best he does is bottle them up and ignore them causing him to be pushy when he is speaking to her. Either he keeps his feelings hidden or she pries them out. Though perhaps even pure circumstance has something to orchestrate... [h3]☠ [color=green][i]Grace O'Faolain[/i][/color] ☠[/h3][i]"I know I piss her off... And I don't forget it when I really do."[/i] Here we have a cocky young buck who is a bit chippy and lippy at moments, and then we have a woman with real right to brag if she does with the experience and background she has. This will show the disrespect inside of the young Emmett as he is more inclined to back talk and defy a woman than a man, reasonably because his mother is quite more of a pushover than his uncle. But Emmett remembers that Grace is there navigator and he wants to at least force himself to trust the one who is holding the map. What would seem even braver of Emmett is if he were to rebel against her direction on the journey due to one he finds superior. Speaking of superior, Emmett's obsession with manhood seeps sexist remarks bringing even more tension. [h3]◑ [color=DC143C][i]Cillian O’Houlihan[/i][/color] ◑[/h3][i]"Mr. O'Houlihan, I don't know if he hates me or not. One thing's certain, I don't get in his way. But it's not that I am afraid too, I simply just don't, at least not for now..."[/i] To Emmett, Cillian, or how Emmett most often addresses him as, Mr. O'Houlihan, has been quite forgotten. He just doesn't think of the man quite often, but when he does make contact Emmett is relatively respectable, as he doesn't have anything against Mr. O'Houlihan. It is not the scars or even the bloody knuckles that wards Emmett's testosterone off, because those things usually invite him even further to challenge a man like so. Instead, it is Mr. O'Houlihan's eyes and constant face of disapproval. But facial appearance is little of what makes Emmett simply back off, it is the fact that everyone else seems so much more relevant to Emmett's life- Othen is like a competitive big brother, Rook is his uncle and the man he strives to impress, Floure is the dreamy girl whom he tries to bottle up feelings for, Grace is the woman who he smart-mouths, and Cillian... well that's Mr. O'Houlihan, a man he has not clashed with, nor conversed.
