I was looking back at the dialogue in the game on the ISAT script project to double check some things, and realized that Isabeau really did not help the whole nobody communication situation!

Like during the Sus event, when he told Odile to not confront Siffrin until after the King? So once she finally confronts Siffrin, it is too late and he loops!

I know Isabeau could not have known, but still! And I wholly believe he helped convince Mirabelle and Bonnie that Siffrin doesn't like to be touched! With him being the most physically affectionate party member, I feel he would have run into Siffrin jumping sooner than our lovely, nervous Mirabelle.

I also don't think he is the type of person to assume one event is a pattern, but if Siffrin jumped at his and Mirabelle's touch, then I think he would have talked to her and Odile about it to try and be helpful, but Change forbid he ask Siffrin if that is true! I mean, he was just trying to be considerate, but damn boy, sometimes you have to talk to people! Even if they are avoiding talking about things!

Not to mention all the times he calls Siffrin out on acting weird and then lets it go with barely any effort! I get it was the day before the end of the world, and I am probably overthinking this like someone stuck in the same two blinding days for over a hundred loops, but come on!

I've actually mentioned this before and it's one of my fave things about him! <3 Act 5 is a SHINING example of this. Isabeau knows what Siffrin is trying to do because we see him say as much.

But as soon as Siffrin calls him out, he just replies "NUH UH" and ends the conversation immediately. Despite seeing the deflection tactic for what it is, he's unwilling to push any further.

This goes even further, though. If you look at Isabeau's sprites, you'll notice a pattern: he won't make eye contact when feeling any negative emotion (embarrassed, upset, angry). There are two* exceptions to this: sad5 and angry3.

*Technically three with the sad4 sprite, but that's only used when emotions of others are high, not his own. To list some examples: Mira's 3rd floor breakdown, talking to Sif right after Kingquest, Memory of Ghosts/Puns, and most of Act 5.

These sprites are only used twice and thrice, respectively, and the latter is exclusive to Act 5. And while the "sad" one doesn't actually seem all that sad, it's only used in two VERY emotional situations.

(Notably, before Act 5, Isabeau IMMEDIATELY tries to deflect away his genuine expression of emotion by putting on a smile. Look at my Fighter y'all we are NOT attaining healthy emotional regulation.)

In the end, Isabeau is so unwilling to cause conflict that he doesn't even want to confront his own negative emotions, looking away because he hates the idea of being too direct. And if you're not willing to communicate your own problems, what happens when you try to address everyone else's? Well, uh... *gestures vaguely at prev's points*
