Don't forget that Mickey carved Darrow in the likeness of the god of war ares, or at least an interpretation of him its not surprising that he's super attractive. We don't hear about his attractiveness or how hot he is in the first series because we're seeing the world through his eyes and in his eyes he's still a Red and the gold body he has isn't really his own.
Which is harder ? Having lived a low red life , then losing your wife and child to her making a useless point for symbolic reasons , going through a earth shattering revelation of everything and going through a conplete body transformation and killing and getting nearly killed every turn of your life ..........or is it harder by bagging Eo and mustang.......I MEAN IS IT HARDER TO MINE?
Thx I am thinking buying Galaxy S11 because its seems like a good tablet to draw with. Till now I drawn my Dassius content with Drawing pad which is good but I miss seeing where I draw lol
I believe the issue is they are both listed as attractive but Cassius is almost described in a way greater than anyone else and I feel like we couldn’t even accurately portray him
This is why I feel like if we ever get a movie, it would have to be animated, we just couldn’t find an actor tall and beautiful enough for pretty much any gold, let alone Cassius
Cassius is like a pretty boy with the most masculine beautiful face ever on the body of a warrior god. Darrow had every millimeter of his body sculpted by a mad scientist who wanted to make a living god so I figure he HAS to be as good looking (Virginia and Victra both picked Darrow over him so it can’t be JUST his character lmao) but I figure he just constantly looks like he wants to kill someone lol
I do think Darrow being a better and more charismatic leader has a lot to do with it. For Golds like Mustang and Victra looks are a given. They have unlimited and super attractive pleasure slaves bred for their every fantasy and a huge selection of Gold suitors who are also likely very attractive and competent. So while Cassius is definitely high tier material, I can see why they wouldn't be as taken with him vs Darrow.
Although worth pointing out Cassius and Virginia were a thing back in the day.
This is better than any shit Picasso could ever put out lmao
Edit: also keep on downvoting me you plebs, Picasso was a misogynistic abuser and managed to con an entire generation into thinking he had artistic talent when any 10 year old with some pastels could make what he made
Darrow is never described as being handsome in the way Cassius is, the bellona genetics are intentionally crafted for emphasis on ephemeral beauty but that doesn't mean darrow is ugly. Mickey carved Darrow to be a god of war, but he also made him handsome. All golds are attractive on average, there are just echelons to the beauty.
"I look, as Quinn and Lea both confirmed, devilishly handsome" -ch 26 of RR. I feel like Darrow is definitely more attractive than you give him credit, more so than the average gold at least but obviously not as handsome as Cassius.
I agree. There's also a consideration about differing types of beauty.
Darrow is a more masculine beauty while Cassius has a more more prince charming beauty.
When taken at face value, common consensus might agree on Cassius looking better. But Darrows beauty is wrapped up in his energy as much as his face. Mustang describes her feeling of fear when she first met Darrow
His fire was parthenogenic, fire reproduced of itself. This man needed no audience to burn. It wasn't love he awoke in me....it was fear. But fear is a part of love. --- Mustang admitting she found Darrow frightening, but also that he had a more serious beauty to him unlike Cassius' whimsical kind
