- Of course Sylus rides a motorbike while fully covered in black leather. Of course.
- His manhandling of MC with his evol is also....something very nice.
- MC's first meeting with Sylus triggers that ancestral humiliation of meeting your ex after a long time and seeing that flash of "They clearly peaked when they were with me, huh" in their eyes
(don't read into my example choice, I had to use "ex" as realistic situation)
- "it hurts!" ... "you'll hurt even more." I'm not ashamed to say I have read many books and fanfictions go this way
- I'll never get tired of hearing how gorgeous Sylus is, never stop. They really won when they made his face (and body, and attitude, and VA choice). I also very much like the fact that he's not the "standard" beautiful face, especially by otome standards. He has unique, hard features that make him stand out in a crowd, and it's not his hair color that's doing it. I'm also lowkey obsessed with the shape of his lips. Just incredible job all around.
- ""did they do anything while i was... gone?"  loaded pause there, Mr Leather Pants"
Ok I need to warn you here, each english VA has their own quirk when voicing their character, as I was mentioning a while ago, and Sylus' voice quirk is that pause of effect he does 3/4 down the...sentence. Sometimes it's because he's legitimately putting the focus on a...word, but many, many, many other times it's just what he...does.
- "its not my fault! i can resonate just fine with others!" 
That got a whole chuckle the first time I played. Let's describe the other 4 handsome men we've resonated with in all the ways that count without any obstacle, lol
- "please please please be "competing with you"
Sylus would have LOVED that. Alas.
- "oh, now THAT'S a great look of disappointment"
Remember that face for when you learn about his backstory, because you'll put it in context!
- I KNOW THIS GUY!
Yes! He's the one Dr.Noah mentioned that worked with MC's grandma and then joined Onychinus!
- "and the bastard abandoned me here?"
That also made me laugh a lot. The parallels between Sylus and Raf /chef's kiss

you, i feel, are opposite? i have been in awe at your lists of things, it feels like you're pulling all these facts out of thin air and its been great. you can absolutely lead this horse to water and she will be a grateful drinker.

I actually sit more toward 50/50!
I am fully in the fanfiction realm, I've dabbled in fanvid making a few times (and I love watching them), my drawing skills are too rusty to do anything but that would also be somewhere I'd go for if I could, and I've used roleplaying as a source of inspo for fanfictions or straight up cowriting fics for years. 
On the other side of  things, I've unintentionally found myself in the role of Archivist/Manager for a fandom a...whole decade ago (my god, how to suddenly feel old), and I really started enjoying the work of organizing canon info so that people could easily use it/enjoy it/understand it. That went from meta analysis to timelines to organizing fandom events and meetups. It was a way to enjoy regular interactions in the fandom, since the activity of writing for me has always been slower and it has never guaranteed engagement (not that I do it for that reason, but it's nice when it happens). It also provided material that I could use myself whenever I wanted to write something canon, so it was a win win.

Now that I think about it, I've more or less exhausted my need for wild headcanons and AUs because that's the bread and butter of RPF already, so now when I'm in non-RPF fandoms I tend to stick to canon compliant as much as I can. If I go with an AU or a crossover it's usually because I'm using it as a canon character study tool.
