everyone who is impatiently waiting for shadow midas should take this time to enjoy shade midas bc i think he’s a great choice of halloween skin for the time being
✩ general traits
his form isn’t tangible, in his attempts to touch or be touched whatever he interacts with will phase through him and if anyone physically phases through any part of him all they can feel is an agonizing chill─
{MORE POST FIC STUFF} montague does become hypervigilant after saying goodbye to shade midas. every sound or difference in temperature alerts him and he thinks midas has come back to him. after a certain period of time he gives up and begins to accept that he’s gone for good
like even without his spirit/soul midas is for the most part normal/not that much different but his shade form embodies his deepest desires and is somewhat more midas than the other midas if that makes any sense. overall i just prefer full shade form bc it makes more sense to me
nonverbal for the most part. communicates primarily through sign language when he makes himself visible (or ouija board if he doesn’t/absolutely has to). in a rare instance where he did have to speak his voice would be a bit softer but also somewhat distorted
i don’t make things with intention of them being enjoyable for the masses i make them for me and myself only and if anyone enjoys it it related it’s simply a bonus
✩ curse
in my hc he’s full shade form all the time as a result of being killed and his shade form being an extension of the curse of immortality. even tho he’s dead he’s unable to rest to any extent and forced to carry on as a ghost. he couldn’t touch anything in life─
also with that shade midas is also representative of all of his deepest regrets as well, which he has many. especially pertaining to being a better father to jules. for this he’s what i consider kinda chronically miserable
