I think in my timeline, when Autor was a very little kid, he came off as sweet and innocent and naive, as well as quiet and knowledgeable beyond his years. Adults probably loved him, but kids his age ignored him and he was lonely. Then, after he was tricked and betrayed by those older kids (and even told that they had conducted a bet as to whether he'd be stupid enough to believe their offer of friendship), he decided he would never let that happen again and that's when he put on the front of confidence and arrogance to replace his naivete. He found it a good defense mechanism, but he probably put off people who might have genuinely been his friend otherwise. Still, in spite of himself, Fakir found himself forming an odd companionship with Autor when they met as kids. Autor, however, figured that he would be forgotten once they no longer encountered each other. (Which more or less did happen; Fakir found Mytho soon after and then had other things to think about. He never knew the other boy's name, but he eventually does realize Autor was that kid when prompted.)
Then at an unspecified age, Autor had to take over the duties of looking after the family estate when his father grew too ill to do so. His mother may have already been dead or she may have spent her time looking after her husband. I haven't sorted that angle out yet.
I suppose I'd have to have some servants around the house, even just a maid or a cook or something, in order for it to be plausible for Autor to continue to live there after his parents both died. (It's still a mystery in the Sailor Moon fandom how Makoto does it.) The house definitely looks big enough to require servants, at any rate. It's *huge.*
And speaking of huge houses, the plunnie where Fakir is speech-and-movement-controlled has exploded into a creepy idea where he, Autor, and Ahiru get lost in a mansion so big, two factions of the same family lived there, one in each wing. (Maybe it should be an old German castle instead.) Someone from one faction supposedly killed someone from the other faction and that entire wing where it happened was sealed off. The murderer is still hanging around and decides to have a little fun when they come in. Seeing into their minds and realizing that Fakir and Autor are likely distantly related, and that they have a rocky friendship, he decides to try to reenact the crime and he's the one who controls Fakir, much to Fakir's horror.
