/ english is feliks' second language, what is his first and what kind of situation makes him speak his first language?
Spending at least four years communicating in the common tongue, it was difficult to pinpoint where the male's very faint remnants of an accent came from. Sometimes it became more obvious with the complicated words he liked to use, other times he sounded like he'd lived in the Typhoon all of his life and hadn't been well-versed in travel at all. Clan life had made him forget a lot of the culture he'd once tried to live up to, but it was hard to forget the language he'd been brought up on regardless. At times he remembered the frustrations of speaking English, how hard it was to remember what word meant what when his nerves were fried from social anxiety - all of that had changed now. There was never a need to slip back into the mother tongue anymore.
Sometimes to keep prying ears away from horrible swears he'd do it (more so to confuse others as opposed to protecting innocence), but with everyone speaking the exact same words there was literally no point. The individualism he yearned for would've cursed him for allowing himself to be swayed, but with a deepening insecurity that him and his goals were misunderstood, Feliks would be wise not to perplex his clan further. A little mystery here and there would always keep the intrigue going, drawing suspicion however wasn't ideal and there was no doubt someone would get antsy if they thought he was talking shit about them behind their backs... ugh, what was he saying anymore?
Was he even him? Why did he care? "Loki, czy jestem naprawdę zbyt miękki?," he'd mumble to the crow sitting adjacent to him in camp, the black bird giving a tilt of his head in response. Of course, the other wouldn't have the foggiest idea what he was saying. Perhaps that was for the best though, giving predators any hints of weakness or self-doubt would no doubt make him vulnerable. With the Typhoon's current political climate, the only thing he needed to be to safe himself was strong.
