-Subaru tends to avoid attention, staying out of the way or outright hiding from you until you’ve proven that you’re not a threat. Between his cruel father and unstable mother, he’s used to adults that lash out with little warning, and doesn’t trust you to not do the same.
-The amount of self hate packed into one small child is horrifying. From apologizing for little more than existing, to shoving away affection solely because he can’t believe he deserves it, Subaru is miserable unused to even the slightest positive attention.
-His reaction to any kind of praise is somewhere between adorable and heartbreaking. Even something as minor as a “good job” leaves him staring at you like you just promised him the world, and going out of your way to make him happy might end in him actually crying.
-He hasn’t quite grown into his temper yet, and is more likely to cry or hide than lash out. You can see the very beginnings of his adult anger, but mostly, he’s just a shy, nervous child who flinches if you move too fast, cries almost every day, and is still afraid of the dark and being on his own.
