They're the SHSL hypnosist (they foolishly tried to hide it in the beginning, unaware of the hypnosis pendulums on their jacket).
They come off as very awkward since they suffer with anxiety and struggle socializing with people.
On one hand they're impulsive and on the other they can also be quite a heavy overthinker. Although all that depends on their well-being...
At first they wanted to pursue art however they always felt like they weren't enough so instead they got into a niche they thought they'd be interested in (for the selfish desire to be the best at something), and it succeeded! Although thoughts of how much happier they could've been haunt them like the plague.

your f/o(s) would never think you're annoying. they enjoy listening to you talk and knowing that you love them enough to trust them with your unabashedly beautiful self ... how could they ever be annoyed by you?

Tw: stalking, obsession
YURICHID 🚀🕸️
First Impression
Orchid disliked him at first, taking his overly woman worship-y behavior as mocking (yes, just mocking). Such behavior made Orchid feel small and inferior (which is a feeling they despise with their entire being) until they noticed he did this to every woman. After that they just found him odd.
Spending time together
Thanks to accidentally bumping into him while exploring (surprisingly w/o Sdra2mark: my friend's oc dw abt it). Yuri instigated the conversation, because of course he did. In the beginning Orchid replied in short phrases with a hint of barely contained passive aggression. But as exploring went on, Yuri chimed in with tales of his life and Orchid found genuine interest. They became one of the only people who tolerated Yuri, going as far to let them both become friends (or more accurately a weird situationship... I think that's how ppl call it). After hanging out with him more Orchid noticed his compliments directed towards them were more specific/concrete than for the others, which made Orchid feel superior. Perhaps his praise started to sound genuine too.
After death
Orchid was hit with the reality/severity of the killing game. One of their closest people (at least in this predicament), gone. Afterwards, Orchid was very anxious and the only person they'd let close to them was Mark.
KANACHID🎸🕸️
First impression
Orchid saw themselves in her timid personality, they felt pity for her as well. They didn't pay her much attention, only offering a few short-lived glances.
"Spending time together"
After the death of Yuri they felt paranoid like I mentioned, however the isolation of their own doing made them crave more. Mark was great, sure, nevertheless they felt lonely. And so they "carefully" picked out the person they'd have the easiest time understanding. That person ended up being Kanade. One faithful day they were planning on talking to her, but all they managed was to hide behind a corner and observe her. For a mere second they saw her facade slip and it was strangely exhilarating! (like that weird nice? feeling when you know you are not supposed to do that specific thing but doing it anyway).
Of course they didn't know how to really register the information present, so they romanticized it. And thus they became obsessively interested in her, wishing to unravel everything she may be hiding. Kanade confronted them when she grew sick and tired of the prying eyes.
It's a miracle Mark convinced them to attend the parade in ch 3. Orchid was discreetly thrilled to see "Kanade" joining them however their subconscious could tell something was wrong with "her" (which we know was actually Puppet Hibiki).
After death
Orchid wasn't surprised at her true intentions, just disappointed. After the execution and the realization that their person of interest was gone they were genuinely at the lowest point in their life. They felt like they'd be next, wishing for it to be painless.
(I'm too lazy to write down more of the lore + that's not what this post is abt buuut no orchid won't die in ch. 4 — they get to suffer for longer)
I firstly posted it privately (on accident) and then made it public so it probably won't get pushed by the algorithm but that's probs for the better
