This looked cute, so I'll give it a try. 🌹
1. No, Cyril does not sleep with a stuffed animal.😂He is, however, very tactile - so if not sharing his bed with someone he will probably end up holding onto one of the many, many pillows on his bed. ( Cyril's bed 10/10 for its pillow fort potential, just saying. )
2. Cyril probably could keep plants, but he personally does not. The plants that are kept in any of his living spaces are tended by his servants. It's just not something he has the time for, nor the specific inclination towards to pursue as a hobby. 1/3
2. [ con'd ] Cyril keeps a good amount of animals aboard, but none of them are technically considered "pets" in the sentimental sense. He has hunting birds and tracking / fighting dogs - but they are bred and trained for combat, not companionship. 2/3
2. [ con'd ] No kids. Never. I forbid it. LMAO. While Cyril is quite good with children, he wants none of his own. Which is partially because never intends to marry or else "settle down", he knows he can't. He knows he's not family man or father material. He's a criminal.😂 3/3
3. "Oh? My love. a darling thing, she is. Never before have I been so charmed at a first glance. Such soft yet striking features. Bright-eyed and curious, and still with that otherworldly feel about her. I do not shy away from admitting it: she bewitches me, utterly."

4. Well shit I sure hope he looks good in red, because his default in-character "casual" glamour is his red leather jacket, and I'm far too sentimentally attached to change it now. 😂
( But also, Cyril's favorite color is red. So, red roses, red clothes, etc... He loves it. )
5. Cyril is a Captain, so speeches are far from foreign to him. He can be very eloquent and inspiring with his words if put in a position where he must be - though it is his personal preference to inspire and lead with actions & by his own example, rather than frivolous words.
6. While authoritarian, Cyril's not unreasonable. He will accept input from his first mate, close friends, and respected crew members.. depending on his mood. It's extremely unwise and potentially dangerous to try to give Cyril unwanted advice, no matter who you are to him.
7. If I were to describe Cyril in three words:
Immoral ( read: extremely so ), manipulative, sadistic.

If Cyril were to describe himself in three words:
Honorable, charismatic, just.

Cyril... does not have an accurate image of himself at all.
8. Cyril loves a good puzzle or mystery, but it's also hard to get him to care about anything that won't substantially benefit him. If it's more trouble than the potential payoff, he'll just get annoyed and drop it. The exception being magitek, due to his personal interest in it.
9. Please, Cyril barely empathizes with PEOPLE. If anything, he is aware that some objects may have magic in them that renders them with some small kind of sentience or personality, and tries to respect that - superstitious and all. What can I say, Cyril never watched Toy Story.
10. I imagine Cyril's pretty content with his age at the moment ( I place him at about 32-34 ). He's not proud of who he was when he was younger, say in his 20's - he's much more confident and comfortable at his current age, so I think he's happy.
11. He's sort of already won the lottery? He inherited a multi-million gil, fully established business. He is also a brilliant, persuasive businessman, so his profit has soared. He doesn't necessarily SPLURGE at all, he definitely saves. But he ALSO gets most anything he wants...
12. Cyril doesn't usually have time to read full books... but he IS a hopeless romantic, and he loves romance in the poetry he reads. Cyril's ALSO read some of the things people have written about him... which has led to some, uh, very flustering conversations and admissions.
13. Cyril's instructors and role models growing up... vary. And the most influential of them was neither his parent nor a good influence. But from his mother he did learn and retain a strong sense of loyalty. It's one thing that has remained incredibly important to him.
14. No, he wouldn't agree at all. Cyril SHOULD feel guilty for a lot of things... but he doesn't... for anything, really. But a guilty pleasure of his: he's infamously sadistic, and he's not shy about it. Obviously it's situational, but he can be extremely... rough with people.
15. What Cyril would consider a waste of time would vary depending on the person and situation. He very much loves "the moment", and whatever makes someone feel intensely, or makes a memory, he believes worth the time. I suppose he'd consider boredom a waste of time?
16. Money isn't a limit for Cyril, LOL. He has... a fair few uniforms and sets of attire that are extremely expensive - high cost fabrics with gold and gems, on top of being tailored to fit him ( most of his clothes are professionally tailored ). He... dresses very well.
17. Cyril is quite good with children, though I wouldn't go so far as to say he likes them. Children often take a liking to him, and he knows several families who have young kids that look forward to his visits. He's like the cool uncle that always brings fun souvenirs back.
18. Cyril is not a particularly "messy" kisser at all. But, you know, a gentle nudge to coax someone into opening their mouth, or running his tongue along someone's lip before kissing them properly, he does do and enjoy little things of that nature.
19. Cyril's a studied businessman, and carries himself with a practiced sophistication. Everything from his mannerisms, to his voice and inflection, are entirely rehearsed. There are multiple reasons for this, but it absolutely is a part of his role as a high-profile merchant.
22. They're not pet names - but Cyril will typically require that people address him as "Captain" or "Sir". ( It's mandatory if / while aboard his ship. )
He'll call people "little one" commonly, regardless of relationship. "Love" and "darling" are used often for lovers.
28. That's really depends on whether or not the relationship is intended to be a healthy one.😂 How's it going to be written? Cyril has his fair share of imbalanced / unhealthy relationship due to him being... Like That ( A Villain™ ). Some good ol rival / enemy dynamics. 👏
30. Cyril probably in all truth would not change. He doesn't really care about anyone's "forgiveness". He doesn't believe himself a bad person, nor does he seem himself as someone in need of redemption. He won't so openly admit it, but he loves what he does, and the life he has.
20. Cyril enjoys many things that usually mean misfortune or unpleasantness for others... if that's what we're going with? I mean, I already mentioned his sadism in this thread, that ones pretty self explanatory. 😂
