The Summoners: Machine Heart - Book Promotion/Teaser
ChrisFernz for Pat Cross
Pat is a 16-17 year old Summoner. He suffers from PTSD but has better control of his emotions rather than his brother. He wants to be himself and make friends but due to his brothers seriousness of not trusting anyone he feels conflicted of his feelings and actions. He talks with a higher toned voice. He tends to sound like he is trying to encourage or be happy but deep down he's sad.
The voice I always pictured in my head would have been something close to Shinra from Fire Force.
“You’re like my brother, okay? You are my brother!" - Pat raising his voice worryingly. He's scared but trying to sound confident.
"Because of this, we developed a fear of trust. Especially Ayden. Our fear led to anger and hatred. We grew distant from people." - Pat is explaining his past. He's talking out loud but shyly.
“If you want to make everyone your enemy, you go right ahead. I want to live up to her name. If you want to act like you don’t care about anyone, then so be it!” - Pat raising his voice and yelling at his brother. He's tired of wearing a mask and wants to be himself.
