Fair. Just keep in mind that I'm trying not to be biased but it's literally a fucking trauma thing.
I don't know how much Steven's told you, but the entire thing with Changelings is that we get kidnapped by Gentry - fair folks, lords and ladies, whatever the fuck you fancy calling them - and get tortured over time into turning into them as well. The lucky ones escape, but for obvious reasons we're fucking messes. Steven and I were only out of the Hedge for a couple of months each before we got sucked in here, we are neck-deep in unresolved trauma.
Solus's entire Deal is being a smug fucking bastard, and I told him to his face that I can't trust him because, surprise surprise, he reminds me of my Keeper. He seems to have taken it as a personal challenge to therefore upset me as much as humanly possible; current attempts include emotional and psychological manipulation, and physical interaction in a way that wasn't sexual but made me so fucking uncomfortable that Isis tried to drop him from literally over a thousand feet in the air. Which jacked up his leg hardcore.
He came and bothered me and Steven at the contest bullshit, he knows full well that he upsets us and actively seeks us out to talk to us. It's usually just mundane dumb shit so I at least entertain his fucking discomfort fetish, however reluctantly, but Steven doesn't.
I genuinely didn't know Steven pushed him down the stairs until Solus told me himself, and he was goddamn quick to cite how Steven did it because Solus got him all riled up over me. Solus and I almost had some weird fucking truce, I guess, until he got me so pissed off during that conversation that I just noped out.
It's just a lot of collective bullshit and incompatible people trying to one-up each other short of murder.
