So since I posted about my characters, how did everyone react when they first washed up to shore?
(Referring to these lovely ocs for TASI)
Ragatha, Pomni, and Gangle would all feel a bit of horror and sadness over the fact that two young children have been lost at sea and will now have to live on this island for the foreseeable future. Jax was annoyed at the idea of having to deal with two brats now. Zooble felt bad that a couple of kids ended up there. Kinger’s just vibing man.
Ragatha would of course take to trying to mother and care for them. Ultimate mom friend worried for these children, she wants them to be safe and happy best they can in the situation.
Pomni would also help out with caring for them but in more of an awkward babysitter/older family member kind of way. She likes the kids and also wants them to be safe and happy but she’s not really parent/guardian material at the time.
Gangle acts more like an older sister with them. Playing games and entertaining them as best she can. Still kinda awkward but it’s easier to hang around kids without worrying about judgement.
Zooble is also sad about the idea of two kids ending up stuck on the island but doesn’t let it bother them too much. Yeah it sucks but we can’t do anything but move on. They’re not exactly sure how to act with young kids but they try to be nice and entertain them when around. Like an older cousin hanging around.
Kinger naturally exudes dad vibes lol. But it’s definitely more noticeable the more lucid he is. He’s happy to care and play with the kids but there’s always some layer of guilt haunting him.
Jax is the one to loudly complain that he’s not going to be on babysitting duty and overall avoids anything regarding caretaking with them. He’s still an ass but not quite as much with them. Like an older brother that flicks you in the back of the head and calls you a baby but when it counts is willing to protect them.
Caine is always happy to have new friends arrive at his island! He doesn’t really have a great concept on ages, it’s just an even smaller grumps right? He’d be thrilled to have anyone that actually wants to interact with him more than the usual group does!
