RELATIONSHIP AD
So, I’d like to develop more relationships for Sayo. She’s a complex character who changes dramatically over the course of her relationships with others, and I’d like to have an outlet to explore that! If you’re interested please read more and like this post for me to dm you!
First, it’s important to understand the depth of Sayo’s personas and how they change the way she may treat your muse.
Shannon:
Shannon is the first persona Sayo ever took on. She began as an imaginary friend, and evolved into someone Sayo presents herself as. Shannon is basically Sayo but without the bitterness and emotional turmoil- she’s demure, feminine, and kind to everyone. Sayo is generally more easy to interact with and befriend when acting as Shannon.
Kanon:
Kanon is the second persona Sayo took on, and is Shannon’s brother since they both supposedly grew up in the same orphanage. Kanon exists as an outlet for Sayo’s confusion about her gender identity, and acts as what she thinks a boy should be like. He’s cold, distant, but far from mean. He also serves as a reminder to Sayo that she is “furniture” who cannot fall in love. It’s more difficult to befriend Sayo when acting as Kanon, but there’s no wall that can’t be knocked down.
Beatrice:
Beatrice is the final persona Sayo took on, and is based on the legend of the witch ‘Beatrice’ on Rokkenjima island. When acting as Beatrice, she will claim to have great magical abilities. Beatrice exists as a power fantasy for Sayo- as she is a representation of all the power and happiness that was denied her. She is cruel and childish, but charismatic and entertaining. It’s possible to get close to Beatrice, but it takes a special kind of person to keep up with her.
In all of these personas, it’s possible to see a little glimpse into the personality of Sayo Yasuda. It’s possible for your muse to meet all of Sayo’s personas in different contexts, but know that it’s near impossible to figure out that they’re all the same person right away.
With that out of the way, here are some relationships that can be forged with her!
1. Friends
Sayo is a deeply lonely person, so making friends with her isn’t very difficult. If your muse shows her even a shred of kindness, she’ll probably remember it. Sayo is a supportive friend as all of her personas, and will definitely treat your muse with kindness.
2. Close friends & found family
The same as above, but on larger scale. Sayo may be more quick to tease your muse if they become close friends. Found family is also a likely option with her, because she lacked that kind of support system growing up. She’ll be sure to give back as much as she gets. Furthermore, if she gets really close with your muse, it becomes more likely that the truth of her identity will be revealed to them. She may not share her whole backstory, but your muse may learn the name Sayo Yasuda.
3. Romance
At this point in her life, Sayo is not capable of entering a healthy relationship. She is far too dependent on other people to give her happiness for this to occur in a healthy way. However, the reason I apped Sayo is because I wanted to make her healthier and happier! Things may change over the course of her development! However, entering a relationship with one of her personas is different. It’s possible for her to fall in love with a character and become close to them as a different persona. Like I said, unhealthy.
4. Enemies
This is the part where I put out the disclaimer that Sayo is not a good person. She planned to kill an entire family, after all. If Sayo really and truly hates your muse for whatever reason, she’ll make their life miserable whenever she sees them. Although it’s unlikely that she’ll resort to extreme violence. Odds are, enemies of Sayo will end up seeing the Beatrice persona more.
5. Other
If you have something specific in mind, tell me!
