He cannot speak
When Seppe was 7 he was happy, sure he's jealous for not getting all the attention from his parents, he was happy. It doesn't go unnoticed either, his grandfather gets annoyed for his son to come back for who knows how long and finally settling down. "Why are you grumpy?" Seppe asked him, "Kid, you'll understand when you're older, so how come you know the word depressed?" The elder demon asked the kid. Seppe looks confused, "How do you know? All I want is eating up another ball of divorce," Seppe said, beaming with excitement. "And how do you know about that?" He asked him. "I–" Seppe stopped talking, he remembers what he's been told, softly scolded from his parents and harshly from the teachers. Seppe's tail lies in between his legs. It doesn't go unnoticed, "Come on kiddo, you can tell me, how do you know about divorce? And I guess eat it?" Adrien asked him. Seppe takes a deep breath, "Mr. Morales, I sense him being angry...and I can see divorce written...but it is delicious... I once ate someone's depression, it is like in a ball, a cotton wisp it feels like a cloud," Seppe explained, even making gestures about what the so-called wisp looks like. Seppes tail wags. "Mom, mama and papa told me not to it this," Seppe said, piquing the man interests, Seppe pull out a wispy cotton ball, who is floating on his hands. "I got tummy ache from eating it, it tastes pretty great," Seppe said with a smile.
"Seppe, perhaps you shouldn't eat those, if you get a tummy ache. Now you know you can tell me about this...new power of yours. What I'm about to tell you listen carefully okay," Adrien said, his tone slightly softer, even though he is annoyed and wants peace and quiet, but this shouldn't go unnoticed. 'Perhaps Jax can explain fully,' He thought. Seppe looks up at the man, and sit cross-legged, his tail wagging and looking at him like a cat. "Do you know what powers you have?" He asked him. Seppe shakes his head, and tilted his head. 'Figures, I seriously need to talk to that son of mine,' He thought and let out a sigh. "Yours are emotions based, It seems you can feel everyone's negative emotions...," He said. The worst emotion based powers to have for a child. "Now, because you feel very bad emotions, you have to know that we care about you and that we are here if you want to talk about it," Adrien said. "What'll happen if I don't?" Seppe asked him out of curiosity, who knew a demon child can act like a curious cat whenever he wanted. "Well, we are the most sinful creatures and because of it our powers will hurt us a lot if we don't take care of it," He said and looks at him, "I know you cannot control other people bad feelings, but you can still talk about your feeling to your parents and your friends whenever you feel sad," He continued and ruffles his hair. "Oh, okay!" Seppe said, and smiles. "I'll control it good! I can't feel my own, so in the future I won't feel others!" He exclaimed. Oh, how naive he was.
Seppe was 10 and his grandparents came to visit, he is only giving them a hug and give a small answers, he slowly succumbs and not even long when he was 13 he stopped talking about his emotion all together. Everyone notice when he starts acting moody. Mariel thought it was just his hormones, Jax thought he is just an introvert, Madeleine thought he is uncomfortable about high school and his grandparents? They thought it is just small jitters when it comes to a life of a teenager. His younger siblings are all rumbustious, energetic and all in all happy. Seppe despise that, he hated how normal they were, and so he starts antagonizing them, telling them what dread they have and make fun of it. "Seriously Seppe? Why are you saying such thing to your little sister?" Jax asked him, "Why should I sugar coat it? She lacks no confidence and keeps binging. What? Do you think I'll stop with such thing, dad?" Seppe said, glaring at his father. Jax sighed and looks at him concerned. He doesn't nor do he wants to talk. He wants what everyone has. Seppe growls, and feels a headache coming, "Those bitches have no rules and shouldn't be so happy craze," Seppe mutters. "Seppe! No profanities," Madeleine said, scolding him. "Whatever," He said and walks towards his room. His grandfather is slightly concerned by the change, he was energetic and happy, and slowly it turns him moody and an asshole. Who knew such a change can be drastic with just a couple of years.
Seppe stares at the ceiling of his new room, "No escape, no one to come, perhaps no one to come in," He mutters, he sighed and has concluded. He won't ever be happy in his life. Everything feels like a chore, everyone's emotions he senses and feels are too much. He wants a let out, he wants to be out. And yet, he feels right at home, here with his future self, Guide, and tons of negativity. Yeah, he feels right at home, it is not like outside this there are people caring about him? Who would love and cherish him? He is too blinded, too blind to see anything around him to be trapped and turn to be the sector replacement. Well, he thought that he'll replace him. Why else would he meet his future self, it is not like he's in purgatory or something so sinfully terrifying that he is in a restricted section of hell. He gets up and walks out of the room. He often wonders if there is something to do here, he then paused and realized, "No wonder I felt like I'm starving," He said and sigh to himself. He searches for the kitchen, not like he can do anything here anyway.
