Since you like getting questions about these two, here’s another one:
How would Herbert react to having to deal with a sick or injured Aunt Arctic and vise-versa? The second one intrigues me more because I can’t say Herbert would like having to be vulnerable around anyone, but Aunt Arctic would probably be thrilled on some level because she seems to enjoy tearing down Herbert’s walls/isolation.
YES REALLY GOOD QUESTION AND OBSERVATION gonna have to sit on this one for some hours. Ok I am done. Go my paragraphs
I love scenarios like these loll. I'd been playing around with a similar idea in my head some time ago too....
Anyway. Herbert. I think if AA was sick he wouldn't be the first person she'd call... unless she was putting him to a test of some kind, I guess. Lol. I also think he wouldn't want to be put in that position Unless he was the reason she ended up sick or injured. In that case, I think he couldn't help feeling a little guilty (and Klutzy would probably be bugging him to go help,) and he would be suuuper awkward about it. Like he doesn't want to be there and he doesn't know what to do, and he doesn't want to show that he's worried but he is! I think he'd also find some humor in the situation... having his former biggest (...?) enemy be in such a vulnerable state, and depending on him of all people? The thought might cross his mind to take advantage of the situation to do something malicious, it would be so easy... He wouldn't do anything, though
Imagine the moment of him looking at a helpless AA and realizing that not only does it not make him feel good to see her like that, he's actually worried and wants to help? Amazing stuff........ Although the idea that he might enjoy it just a little, for even a second, is very interesting too... v◐ᴥ◐v
I wonder if AA might have a hard time keeping her guard down at times like this. And if so, would it be harder with Herbert, even if he is her friend? Moving on...
If Herbert was sick... he would NOT want her to see him like that. Having the head of the EPF take care of you, how humiliating is that? Not only that, but showing any kind of vulnerability...... Yup, not happening. If AA finds out that he needs help, though, she's not leaving him alone. He's her friend! She worries about him! She wants him to know what it feels like to be cared for by someone other than Klutzy... and yes she's also absolutely thrilled about this situation. I mean, he's pretty much forced to be vulnerable! It's not like she's Happy about it, and she definitely doesn't want to take advantage of such a thing... But also she might. In a way. Subconsciously
I don't know if I've showed this much in my doodles, but Aunt Arctic really wants for Herbert to open up and gets frustrated when she's not able to make it happen. She sometimes takes a very methodical approach to their relationship... that's her Director side coming out LOL. So this would be the perfect opportunity for that. She also would be excited about the chance to get to know him better, because she so badly wants to know more about him (and this is based on how she talked about him in the game sometimes....)
She is a strange one... But she would mainly just be worried about him, of course! She's a caring friend
I wonder how Herbert would feel then, receiving all that warmth and care that he rarely gets and having no choice but to accept it... How conflicting that must be for someone like him
Can you tell enemies to friends is one of my favorite character dynamics? Surely not
