PT 2. OF THE TWINS: ORCHID
@krumbymatcha
anyways. i guess. I GOT ON THE GRIND. I FINISHED THE DRAWING. everyone say ‘HI ORCHID!!’ (also, although genderfluid, orchid prefers he/him on most days, but occasionally he does switch to sticking with she/they)
my idea for orchid was to make him a colder, more serious character who usually gets overshadowed by his twin, oxeye— the ‘voice of reason’ between them two who often times gets ignored.
although he views mickey as an idol, he does sometimes question his morals/motive, making him less gullible than oxeye, and hence a lot less preferred when handed information/usually not the one picked to lead important missions.
she’s also a victim of the blot. ever since she was maybe 8 years old their symptoms have been worsening— but never wanting to be a bother about it, they kept quiet. he’s learned that strong emotions usually trigger attacks, another reason why he acts so detached from other toons, including oxeye.
someone, or something that knows orchid has the blot is toodles. after a particularly rough mission, the stress of it all gets to her and she begins to worsen. panicked, she rushes to a safer, quieter area, the bathroom. they locks themselves in and attempt to calm down. however, toodles, being able to control the panels to all the rooms, opens it and walks in on orchid nearly dying.
ashamed more than anything, and not wanting to be considered a liability, orchid begs toodles not to tell anyone— including oxeye. toodles agrees under one condition: when told to do something, he must comply.
toodles reports this back to mickey, it’s literally his duty to, and instead of getting rid of him, mickey uses this to his advantage. he sends toodles to do his bidding and forces orchid into situations/missions.
one of those missions being: find the rascals that have the map. (oxeye tags along too guys dw)
maybe he falls in love with mugman or something
it sure is windy out!
sorry if this lore is kinda ass, guys trust i’m gonna work on this character, maybe, actually i’m not promising anything. BUT MAYBE HIS LORE WILL GET BETTER IDK GANG
