I wish I'd threaded a lot more with HC because I feel like they would have had such interesting CR!! But by the time they kind of broke through he then immediately died, oh well.

Anyway Mob is kind of an odd duck in that he's an awkward and shy teenager but he's also an innately extremely powerful psychic and for him this is the most normal thing in the world. The result of that is the qualities that like impress and intimidate him in people are really out of whack. If you have good social skills or are good at interpersonal relationships or give good advice, or have some mundane skill you've worked hard at and are really good at, he's a little starstruck. But if you're just an intimidating broody ghost king with an eyepatch and cool powers, absolutely none of that is compelling to him at all. He has met so many ghosts who have gone on and on to him about how cool and powerful they are, and all of them he's basically swatted like flies, so it's just like. Okay, okay, sure, if you say so. But after he was so unimpressed at HC the ghost king, he basically told him what he really believes - being powerful or impressive isn't important at all. The only thing that matters is the way you treat others.

That's why his opinion on HC changed so much in the CYOA. He could not give a single shit if HC is dangerous or powerful or particularly badass. But the fact that HC was protective of all of them and worked hard to help them and was strong enough to carry Izumo mattered a lot. It made him like HC. Also, he's a big romantic and the fact that HC's big secret was just that he wanted to kiss a boy was relatable content. So after that he was an HC stan even if they never got to talk about it.
