Long-mid length coats with collars popped (wwheehehehhe flappy)

Where in their body do they keep stress or tension?
Shoulders.
What do they think about where they currently live? If they could move elsewhere, would they?
Current home base is 60/40 split (something like that) between ishgard inn rooms + fortemps manor and the lavender beds. Ishgard is cold and overcast and it snows too damn much but the people are warm and it’s central to places he likes to frequent. Lavender beds is where friends hang out so he likes it (the flowers...are nice..the sky is nice) but it’s a little out of the way.
He thinks about returning to ul’dah someday but can’t quite forget all that happened… still feels wrong, even if family is there.
Do they have any pet peeves or petty dislikes, and how do they react to encountering them?
Stares spitefully at that one fuzzy sheep that rammed (hah) into him as a kid, he doesn’t like them now for that reason alone.

mlem mlem (gestures to 99 plates of HQ steamed catfish)

Silk, leather. Polished metal (smooth!!). Engravings and embossings (feels nice to run hands over while thinking, a good sensation)
Do they like to travel? How do they pack and prepare?
YEAH!!! He throws what he likes into a pack (read: it may not be what he needs) half an hour before he’s gotta go and just runs out the door. He’ll either live without what he forgets or pick it up along the way (and lose it by the end of the trip).
How well do they take criticism? How do they react to others noticing their flaws?
(cat ears go down) o-okay!! I see, i’ll try to fix it (wondering to himself, have i been doing something wrong this whole time???). He tries to take it in stride, and if its something that’s offended someone, he’ll genuinely try to fix...whatever it is (he wants to be a good)
Flaws….. Shrug emoji? If it’s something that someone would criticize and he can change, refer to above. Otherwise he’ll just ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ what do you want me to do about it

Warm drinks (preferably sweet) like mulled wine.
How do they react to being physically injured or undergoing medical treatment?
Denies that he needs treatment until he’s knocked flat out (it’s fine! I’m still up, i’m f--), then apologetically accepts help. He’ll run away and jump back into action when he can move though.

Calloused, nicked with little scars from careless sword shenanigans. He runs hot so his hands are on the warm side. Keeps claws (nails!??) clipped short.

What is a gift that they have received that was especially touching or significant?
A black chocobo. House Fortemps shield.
How do they arrange or decorate their living space?
Doesn’t. If left up to his own devices, his living space is clean but chaotic. Also hoards things so a bit cluttered. If he’s imposing upon someone/it’s not his space, he’ll keep it the way it was presented to him (the chaos is contained and easily removed).
Do they have any allergies or chronic conditions?
Nope
