may i inquire abt liy? she's an interesting character to talk about
YES!!! I've gen spent the last two months thinking about her off and on, especially pre-bfdi Liy.
BPD. Impulsive, adventurous, irritable, resourceful, and curious. She's also willing to offer advice if someone wants it. If you give her a goal, she will tunnel vision for it.
She wants relationships with people who will be there for her. Until the end. She cares deeply about those she is friends with.
Liy is a texture seeker and very hands-on with people. She puts her hand on your shoulder while she talks. Every time. She also shook X's hand and squished it. Discovered the beauty of algebralien texture. I really want her to squeeze One.
Liy is a character I think could make a fun deal with One. Hmmmhm
Absolutely a rough past. She delt with neglect from her guardian(a) that led to her running away and living on the streets as a teenager. She learns to lockpick and some pretty valuable survival skills.
There is a murder at some point. Somebody does, maybe several people. IDK if it's in self defense or not but either way, Liy is a witness. If she is killing anyone it would be in a moment of stress and panic. Thoughts eat her alive after-- gnawing at her head. Guilt, fear, and horror.
Liy leaves the group after that. She had her experiences of feeling unwelcomed but she felt like she had nowhere else to go.
Her group would avoid her when she experienced depressive episodes, paranoia, or anger. Like. Instead of helping her people act like she's a problem or a nuisance or someone to just pity. Sorry she's not neutral or fine all the time?? ??
Okay. Sorry for being a burden, she'll just mask it.
She gets tired of masking. She hates it. God forbid someone expresses themself or looks for help.
That and the deaths lead to Liy searching for somewhere else to go. She's homeless and barely 20. Applying for BFB was a choice to find better conditions and better people.
When the bus picks her up, she sits with Pie! Pie has a few questions and listens intently to everything Liy has to say.
Her new objective is to win BFB and make friends.
Pie is why she joins Death PACT! Liy, Pie, and Black Hole get along well.
Liy has growing frustrations with DPACT. She gets disregarded a lot. Also avoidant when she's experiencing her emotional lows. Liy looks to Pie for advice and Pie kinda. Shuffles awkwardly and tells Liy that she really isn't good at advice.
...okay.
Then there's Bottle. It's always "just keep smiling!!" with Bottle and that is NOT what Liy needs. She has feelings??? Smiling won't stop them!!!! Hello!!!
The episode of her elimination, Liy has a paranoia episode. Listen. She's been ignored and disregarded by the people she loves. Do they actually care about her? Are they just using her to get further in the game? Is it all just an act? For what? What did Liy do to deserve this? She had to've done something.
Pillow is there.
Pillow tells her to embrace her emotions and impulses. Let her feelings FREE!!
Liy's elimination involves a speech. She's angry. She feels thrown out and makes it KNOWN. Pie tries to talk to her and Liy SNAPS. Pie is not exempt from being called out.
She Feels justified in that.
Being in the EXIT worsens Liy's BPD symptoms. She spent 3? years there trying to avoid Four. Leaving the EXIT to explore the wider domain is nerve-wracking and exciting. Liy gets to be adventurous, though a bit wreckless.
Pencil kind of becomes the EXIT leader as time goes on. Pencil has been putting Liy with Match and Stapy more and those two become her GOATs! Stapy and Foldy were short-lived rivals for Liy in BFB. Oh, how things change.
When it comes to THE escape, Liy can tell Match is struggling to lead and takes over for a little bit. They work together with Stapy to gather the necessary material and BOOK IT!!
Escape happens, Bracelety is left behind, and Liy is drawn to the temptation of infinite power: TPOT. Of course Liy wants on-- having infinite power could open up so much to Liy.
As Two and Four take turns reading the votes, Liy watches her dear friends go FLYING into a monsoon, far out of sight.
Nevermind that though. As upset as it makes Liy... She has a new team-- one that cares about her and needs her help so they can all progress.
She and Pen are by far the closest on Bagged. Pen is dealing with anger and Liy is able to relate and offer advice...
The two of them sit and talk while they hide from Four and X. Pen doesn't know how to let his anger out. Liy has been repressing hers and, after TPOT 15, had come to the conclusion that letting anger out is okay. Hiding it isn't. She hasn't felt good when she keeps her mouth zipped. She tells him that she can control when it's good for her to let tha part out.
It's her switch. It's kinda become her signal for I'm not feeling alright OR I'm locked in. Could be both. Take in the context clues.
Pen agrees. Liy encourages him to do it. Cue the scene where Pencil almost hits Pen with her van.
miiiight rework that again ^. I want their dynamic to be a bit different.
During this time, TPOT has a LOT of rising tensions and stress. Liy has trauma from the EXIT and should REALLY be getting help for that.
And she's on this game instead 😮💨
Between Black Hole accidentally screwing up Liy's game, the world nearly ending, high tensions everywhere, and the now very real threat of her being eliminated(TPOT 19), Liy's becoming more stressed and paranoid.
Then TPOT 19 happens.
Bad, bad stuff -- TV makes the challenge a battle royale and the world seems to be nearly ending a SECOND time. Liy is given some of Two's power by Four and (accidentally) finds out that she can get MORE of that power by being near someone who died with it. This is because the power seeks out being full.
Liy has never had algebralien power before. Even a sliver of Two's power is too much for most people and she's ALSO in a shit mental state.
But she has to win for Bagged. They can't lose anyone else. SHE can't lose anyone else.
Liy gets a taste of the power. Liy loves it. The Failed Debeuters are in her way. That's right. In the redux, they don't team up with Winner and Price Tag. They just want out of the carnage.
They are in her way, though.
On a power high, Liy goes and attacks them. ALL of the Debeuters are killed by Liy. The link earlier explains it in more detail but Liy refused to feel guilt YET.
She won't let guilt stop her. She has to win. That is what she is here to do. For Bagged. For PEN.
She chases down Pencil, flying after Pencil until she's on the hotel roof. Suddenly, there's a searing pain in her head, only for a split second, then nothing.
