Gonna need a bit to process all of it because WOW these guys are dysfunctional🥹
I'm super curious to ask, does cammilo(?? getting used to the name still!!!) the looper, does the forgotten island they come from still rely on stars and such? Guide seems to look like one (they look fricking COOL might i add)
What is The Looper's wish? :0
HIIII THANK YOU FOR COMING BACK FOR ROUND TWO SJDJDHSBXB
I've been giggling about "WOW these guys are disfunctional🥹" because YES THEY ARE SJEJEJA that brightened up my day. Take as much time as you need I did just bombard you with information
The forgotten island stays star themed! Mostly because I am a space nerd and I love the stars as a motif.
Guides design was fun to come up with I love drawing him. Bald ass, said affectionately. Instead of a star, they're a broken ball jointed doll, with the wish literally shining out from their inside.
As for Camillo's wish-
Camillo, at his core, does not want to be left behind. He left behind his country, even if he doesn't remember it, he feels left behind by life due to his disability, and he worries he'll be left behind by Katherine.
So, selfishly, he wishes that they don't leave him. This leads to a lot more 'stutters' in the loops, especially by the end as his mental health declines.
hello thank you for opening my can of worms . One million words on You . (Seriously, this will be long.)
I will start with Camillo, our lovely little Looper. Who Camillo is has in part been shaped by him growing up disabled, and being found on the shores of Vanguarde as a child (and then getting adopted). He's had to deal with being treated like glass, like he's stupid, or doesn't know what's best for himself.
Because of this he's loud, a little temperamental, and fiercely independent, even to his own detriment. He likes to tease, but the line between being malicious and good natured simply depends on if he likes you. He has no qualms pissing off someone he doesn't like and finds his anger justified more often than not.
Once he attaches to something, he finds it especially hard to let go. Camillo doesn't have much to call his own, and he can't even trust his own memories, sometimes. Hes known Katherine the longest, and their entire childhood they were thick as thieves. The closeness didn't end as they grew up, and oftentimes they operated as a package deal. Until, of course, Katherine left to stay at a House of Change, and Cami was left alone.
When Katherine was Blessed, Camillo begged to come along. He didn't care about Vanguarde. He just cared about her. He cooks, asks for no pickles, and tries to keep her safe, despising her self sacrificial tendencies.
Katherine's life has, mostly, revolved around other people. She became close with Camillo as kids, struggling to understand and get along with others around her. Her blunt and straight forward way of speaking came off as rude and nitpicky, even as she strived to just 'fit in'. She craved normalcy, wanted to be like the others, but didn't know what that meant. In the end it was more effort than it was worth, and she just stuck by Camillo's side. Following that, Katherine left for a House of Change in order to follow her own path, for once. ('Strategically', she took all the classes the house had to offer. But she particularly likes history.) In many ways, the house opened her eyes to what the world has to offer.
When the King began to freeze Vanguarde, Katherine was blessed by the Head Housemaiden. The blessing finally gives her purpose, in a way. She knows her place in the world! Which in turn made her people pleasing strike back in full force. She's supposed to protect everyone, and she will be the shield. It's Katherine's duty now, and she will live it. Her way of fighting is "hit them fast and as much as it takes, and use your body as a barrier" which frankly noone is happy about. While the House taught her a lot, putting it all in practice is turning out to be a bit of an issue. Thankfully she's not alone.
Her bluntness is still there, but now it's backed up by an immense passion for learning new things. She's headstrong, wants to get along with everyone, and is willing to do whatever it takes. She's the one to recruit both Camillo and Allison; Ally, as their navigator across Vanguarde. Camillo, as her support.
I've touched on Allison here, and in short; she's a liar putting on a mask 24/7! The act she puts on is bubbly, kind, and one note. She strives to seem simple, a little dumb, and unassuming. She claims to believe in the Change God and be of vanguardian descent to further this. Her biggest weapon are her words, and charming her way out of situations is how she survived since leaving her hometown. She has a keen eye and is much smarter than she lets on.
By 'profession', Ally is a traveler. She loves the outdoors and hops from place to place, picking up odd jobs. She agreed to take Katherine and Camillo to find the second Orb, but ended up sticking around for the entire journey. As time went on, her mask managed to slip, and she's become quite an annoying little fuck. (/affectionately) Similar to Camillo she likes to tease and annoy the people around her, batting her eyelashes cutely when she ends up in trouble. She seems almost too laid back about the end of the world. Ally enjoys encouraging Katherine's bad jokes as a way to tease Camillo in particular, and Kat enjoys the opportunity.
Guide can easily be described as bossy in Camillo's eyes. He speaks in a formal and curt manner, and his 'guiding' comes off as heavy handed. They have a tired, quite frankly pathetic demeanor that makes them hard to take seriously sometimes. It's the burned out remains of something else. They're the hollow shell of righteous anger. Camillo gives them hope that there's an actual escape out of this, but they need to fight tooth and nail for it.
Getting used to a duo that's extremely close knit and honestly rather codependent was a learning curve though.
Hi, it's me, guy with 0 knowledge of your ocs! You should talk about Ally!!!! I am completely unbiased
HEHEHEEE
Why thank you, totally unbiased asker!!! Since you ask so nicely!!!
Now, where should I start? At her most basic, what Allison is- is an actor. A liar. The version of herself she presents to you- simple, optimistic, chatty, with an edge of wit- is nothing more than a mask. The kindness is hollow.
What hides behind is calculating. Sharp eyed. A little too paranoid. The only way to prevent getting hurt again is to never give them an opportunity to know you in the first place. Let them think you're dumb so they never expect the knife.
Ally travels because there's nowhere else to go for her. She burned many bridges across her life and then booked it. The scar across her face is a reminder, and it's also a crack in the facade. It holds a story, when she's supposed to be one dimensional. She's tried to get rid of it. It didn't work out.
She wears Change God icons like a plaque, but the truth is simple. She doesn't believe in much of anything, anymore. Even before the world began to cease turning around her. Joining the 'Saviors' was supposed to just be a quick job of assisting them with navigating them on their quest, but, well, the possibility of saving her own skin sounds good too.
