Description
it was a responsibility which fell upon his grandparents, to raise him and her, practically as siblings. See, yīng was scarcely befitting her role as a mother. A temperamental child herself, who had neither the maturity nor the disposition to care for herself, let alone another living being. Thus, to compensate for wei's lack of parental presence, his grandparents catered to his every whim. At every chance, he was pampered, overindulged, granted whatever he wished. Anything not to hear one of those temper tantrums which were oh so similar to his mother's. Anything to elude the questions which plagued his mind throughout childhood.
wei was molded into utmost perfection. a gifted painter from early years, a proper zhōu they could flaunt about in social gatherings he hadn't the least interest in. he was a blessing for grandparents, whose own child failed to be of standard. taught in the arts extensively, dead languages and history flooding his brain with information he neither asked for, nor was intruiged by. and while he excelled in most such matters, only in painting did he feel like himself. it was his. entirely his. a deeply personal thing. the first thing nobody forced upon him.
his only medium of expression, in a house where display of emotions blurred the lines of deception. whatever he desired, he needed only cry to get it. feelings were a means to an end, nothing more. a weapon in his boundless arsenal to obtain and achieve and accomplish. they were useless in any other scenario, genuine ones merely poured into art, not to implode out of his guarded heart.
❝Painting is a metaphor for control. Every choice is mine. The canvas, the colour. As a child I had neither a sense of the world nor my place in it but art taught me that one’s vision can be achieved with sheer force of will. The same is true of life, provided one refuses to let anything stand in one’s way.❞
― Niklaus Mikaelson
observant and highly withdrawn, wei speaks when he deems it necessary to. not quite social but can strike a conversation with anyone who piques his interest. otherwise, he may simply ignore or walk away from social gatherings.
he is calculated and level-headed, though plagued with anger issues, stemming from anxiety of what might occur when matters do not go his way.
there must be a plan for everything, including daily routines, which lead to agitation when broken. however, he is still relatively calm under pressure, as long as he can set a course of action in his head.
sense over sensibility at every turn, never one for sentimentality, even for his family. you will not find a single photo of them in his room, for he views them as mere providers, rather than caring parental figures.
his only source of genuine happiness comes from accomplishments, for his confidence, knowledge and manipulative skill set are all he has. all he needs to obtain any object of his desire.
