Initially, Roy may appear to be quiet, intimidating and aloof - not exactly the most approachable individual, and his appearance, with the eyepatch and all, doesn’t exactly help in that department either. But there is, of course, a very tangible reason for the stillness that Roy projects.
Just a few months back, Roy was a Man on a Mission. Everything he did was carefully measured, calculated towards getting exactly what he wants by hook or by crook, and what he wanted was a total revolution within the military order that he served, even if it happened to cost him his life in the process. It may have looked like he was doing little else beyond chasing skirts to his equals, sucking up to his officers or finding every way to avoid work by shoving it off to his direct subordinates, but Roy was, in actuality, simply disregarding what he believed to be extraneous to actually accomplishing his goals.
Now that everything has been said and done, though, and now that he just might have lost even more than he had bargained for (which was quite a lot already), Roy may appear to be a mere shadow of the powerful figure than he used to be. He believes that he’s fought the good fight, channeled just about everything he had in him and even a little beyond what he should have given if he wished to preserve himself into the Cause. Hence, it is clear that he isn’t about to step back unto the battlefield anytime soon unless there’s something he can really gain out of it. |
