@grantcactus I'd look down at others too if I were constantly subjected to surface level interpretations all my life because of my lazy eye tbh
And I'd start valuing intelligence over anything else at that point.
@dimiedeleth He equally sees everyone as beasts.
He respect people with intelligence like he did with Tiara who's a person of color
Chances are he's like this because people judged him for his look and starts valuing intelligence more than surface level interpretations
Like beasts
@fusionsamuraig1@Zygoth_X@FireEmblemJP To be fair
I'd imagine this guy would be clinging to intelligence because so many people around him would judge him as suspicious just for the way he looks
@ribboneels But it's not about being a creep?
They legit said before she loves to read books and admires her grand father who's a tactician and he just recognizes that?
He faced so much discrimination from people who see surface level stuff and started seeing them as beasts because of it
@LunaWriter34@CEOOfMercedes And something that's possible in all timelines is that the church is formed around Byleth instead.
After all, Edelgard didn't destroy the church but rather reformed it under the empire.
@mynameisbonni I'd imagine he would have faced discrimination for how he looks and at some point he began to look down at people who look at things at a surface level. (Like certain fans)
Calling them "beasts"
I mean, Beasts tend to get tricked by visuals all the time in nature after all
@FireEmblemJP Okay now I get why he calls people beasts
Because of lack of inteligence
Makes the guy feel more like a logical person reason than liking vain things like his eyes
Makes sense he respects intelligence more
