If Terror Is The Feeling Of Dread And Apprehension At The Possibility Of Something Frightening And Horror

If terror is the feeling of dread and apprehension at the possibility of something frightening and horror is the shock and repulsion of seeing the frightening thing, name a time your character has been terrified and a time they were horrified. How did they deal with these emotions? Was the terror, for example, unfounded, or the horror too much?

A time your character was terrified

I make a lot of "Sena's dead boyfriend" jokes, but the moments leading up to that were pretty much exclusively this. He doesn't know where his friend went, anticipates the worst, and then something he's been scared of up to that point actually happens.

For things that happen in-story, he has a few of these, but being left alone in Ultima Thule really freaks him out.

A time they were horrified

THIS ONE WAS ACTUALLY SUPER HARD TO ANSWER.

I want to say the massacre early in ARR, which got to him pretty bad; he starts to come out of being an "I only care about this one person" type edgelord, he starts getting along more with people, and then those people die and he goes right back to that.

Also slightly unusual one, but the combination of dragoon and having issues with his scales makes the conversation with Vrtra deeply unpleasant for him in a way that isn't quite horror, but comes close.

How did they deal with these emotions? Was the terror, for example, unfounded, or the horror too much?

Sena tends to deal with his negative emotions in general by covering them with anger and then not actually dealing with them, but even moreso when he's scared. Him wanting to be strong is an extension of this; he wants to protect his friends, but also, if he can fight it, he has agency in the situation.

Complete silence stops him in his tracks, though.
