One funny thing I love about being a writer and creating characters is that the small details seem to magically fill themselves in and you discover more about your character.  When I round out a character, I don't feel like I'm the one doing it, they just kinda grow by themselves.

A good example is Torque Axino, a posthumous character who started out pretty flat.  He's a Lombax who managed to escape Tachyon by being on a diplomatic assignment in a neighbouring galaxy.  He became something of a manwhore afterwards, trying to fill in the void he felt at completely losing his life.  That's how he meets Noy and winds up having SD.

But I was trying to make sense of it.  What's the connection?  How would losing everyone he's ever formed a personal connection to, result in him solely being unable to connect with women, completely disconnecting to the point that he can't form an emotional relationship with a woman?

Is it the inability to solidify his life again?  No, it can't be.  He manages to hold a successful job without becoming a workaholic, he makes friends, remains charismatic and polite and he becomes so popular in his new galaxy that he nearly becomes president.  Clearly he develops a life with a very strong base.  He's able to put his loss aside and build himself to the top.

So I started thinking, who did he lose in the attack?  A mother, perhaps a sibling or two.  His father was already long dead, so he learned to move on despite the loss of a close loved one.  But perhaps losing his entire family made him not want to build a new one?  Still doesn't explain why he can't even get into some kind of a relationship with a woman, even if he never intends to get married and have kids.  Besides, he wants kids.  Even when he finds out about SD he swears to not be a paycheck in the mail to her.  So that can't be it.

It's not an issue of making new friends either.  He's got tons of those, especially Gladys, his secretary who was there when he saw the news broadcast and comforted him since then and became the bearer of all of his secrets.  He can clearly get close to people, as long as they're strictly shoved in the friendzone, which Gladys had been.

It hit me really randomly actually.  Axino had a girlfriend/fiancée on Fastoon.  Could she have been pregnant?  Maybe.  It would explain his yearning for a relationship with SD, despite not wanting anything to do with Noy.  But after being sent to Lunis for what he thought was going to be only a couple of weeks, he certainly expected to come back to someone who was precious to him.  Maybe he proposed to her before, maybe she had announced she was pregnant before.  Something big that meant he was far too excited to get back.  Then finding out it was all gone?  He might never want to get that close to someone for fear of losing them again.  It would justify why in any AU of mine, even if he marries Noy he tends to wind up cheating on her, because he can't form that monogamous relationship for fear of loving someone if only to have them yanked away from him.

By contrast he'd want a kid because that's a promise he never had fulfilled.

Just thought I'd let you guys into my head for a bit and see how I come up with my characters and some of the finer details of their personalities.  It's a pretty crazy process. lol

Welcome all to the page of the one, the amazing the beautiful, the awesome, SL! And yes, I am aware that I have boobs

Don't know me? Well, I'm sarcastic and usually friendly and polite to any passers by on my page. No, I don't bite heads unless you recolour, steal other people's art, troll, or just butt into my life. Then you don't want to fuck with me.

Otherwise, enjoy the art and COMMENT. I honestly hate favs <_<

My BuddiesDon't fuck with them. Rawr.

:iconzimmy1300:~zimmy1300 The one who introduced me to the drug that is online art sites. Thank you Zimmy. One of my best friends from camp, Zimmy is a sweetheart and I love her. However she is never on her DA account. Yay Zimmy.

:iconjazz-the-spazz:=Jazz-the-Spazz Jazzy is probably the first person that I got close to on DA. We used to be similar as all hell, leading to weird conversations where we figured out what the other was thinking (o.O) but alas, since my split from the Sonic community and my move to Israel (and her getting a boyfriend. DAMNIT life's not fair XDD ) we've noticed the similarities disappearing. Doesn't mean I don't still love her and love talking to her. Love you Jazzy, don't ever change. Or else I will come down to Chicago and beat the sense back into you B)

:iconmewglethewolf:=MewgletheWolf Ah Mewgz. The one and awesome. Fellow Canadian, he is a great artist and has definitely delved more into his own kickass style. Seriously he improves instantaneously, I swear! He's a fun, extremely talented guy who knows how to laugh at himself and everyone around him. Keep on rockin' dude, you can only get better and better!

:iconlight-and-twilight:~Light-and-Twilight She is awesome. But annoying. Love her. Rawr.

:iconlady-gagahim:*Lady-Gagahim This girl is adorable and lots of fun. She will randomly pop up ANYWHERE just to make you laugh. No, really. Heath is just amazing. :heart:

:iconknightofthewind93:!KnightOfTheWind93 This dude is awesome. He came to SA to help me and Nada deal with a troll and I started talking to him on DA to find that he and I are a lot a like. He is an amazing guy who knows the real meaning of friendship, and isn't afraid to show it. He is sweet, sensitive and the truest friend you'll ever have. Go give him a hug, then hug him some more because he's just that worth it. :heart:

:iconlizwuzthere:~lizwuzthere Oh lord, where to begin with Liz. I was a fangasming IDIOT when I first spoke to her! She's always a good person to talk to if you need a giggle out of some really fucking retarded comment. She's hardworking and fun and really a great artist.

:iconkirmon64:~Kirmon64 This girl will make you laugh. That is all. What is the first submission she ever posted? Kaden in a(n adorable) sexy little black dress. Probably the reason I've started giving Yaoi a chance, I love seeing a new deviation from her, knowing I will either laugh my ass off, be amazed by her brilliant style, or be touched by her moving writings. Sometimes we'll just manage to bring up the most random shit and I'll be laughing about it all day. She's funny, sweet and awesome and she will totally take whatever you say out of context. Her mind needs looots of soap.

:iconnarugirl94:~narugirl94 What can I say about Jennie other then the fact that she's so... JENNIE? We fucking met when she interupted and butted into a conversation I was having with another recently made friend of mine at Zimmy's bat-mitzvah! And then we just hit it the fuck off. Now she's one of my best friends in the world. I missed camp without her, and now I'm gonna miss the fact that I don't know when I'll see her next :'(

:iconsnowingplastic:~SnowingPlastic This girl is awesome to party with. However, she cannot tolerate alcohol. At all. Love you girly <3

I don't know, I haven't spoken to her in a long time. I'm assuming she's doing well, but I wouldn't know.

We haven't had a falling out or anything, we've just both been busy with other things and haven't had a chance to talk.
