What is your opinion on all the survivors?
“Goodness, well… I hope no one can see this…”
“Dwight is a good kid. He’s trying his best, but he’s still bordering on… Coward seems like such a harsh word… He hides a lot, but in that regard, I suppose that makes him one of the smartest of us. He really is a natural born leader, so I wonder why hardly anyone actually follows what he says…”
“Meg is…arrogant? Confident? She really puts her athletics to the test, but…um…I really do wish she’d use those skills to be a little more altruistic than just running the killers around… It’s good for gen rushing, sure! But…if there are only two survivors left, and-and one’s hooked, she’s going to waste as much time running around rather than saving them…”
“I actually very much enjoy Jake’s company! He and I have a mutual love of both tinkering and animals! The crows that fly around seem to really like him. He’s a lot quieter than the others, but he knows how to make himself dangerous with the way he handles hooks. …unfortunately that’s not good when the killers catch on that he’s in trials…”
“Claudette is another one I love being around. She’s so gentle and caring… She’s…what I always assumed a good mother is like. She’s always willing to help, even if it would put her in danger.”
“…I don’t…get along…with, um, Nea. She’s…shockingly mean. She’s good at juking and angering the killers. Outside of trials, we don’t speak at all. In trials…she’ll sometimes try to shove the killer off on me. I don’t know what I did to upset her, but whatever it was…I wish she’d let it go…”
“Truth be told, I adore Laurie. She’s so strong, both mentally and physically. She’s one of the only survivors in the Fog that has a deep connection with their killer, and she’s still very much terrified of The Shape. I look up to her, and she treats me like a little sister! She’s protected me more than once, and to have both her and Claudette in the same trial really is a problem for the killers, one protecting and the other healing.”
“I, um, tolerate Ace. He can be a little strange sometimes, and he’s not afraid to leave survivors in the trial if it means he gets out. I guess I can understand; it’s what most people would do, probably. He…gambled a lot, so it makes sense that he sees it like a big game to win, and the only way to win is to live.”
“Bill scares me. There’s no other way to go about it… I don’t know what kind of situation he came from, and he’s never too keen to talk about it, but wherever it was, it’s given him a strong sense of survival. I’ve seen him punch killers before…”
“I don’t mind Feng. She hangs around Nea a bit too much for me to really get close to her, but she seems cool. She has an incredibly high pain tolerance, having to deal with The Doctor as often as she does…but, um, her confidence can sometimes get her into trouble.”
“David is okay. Actually, he makes me feel safe a lot. Early on in the trials, when the killer would find me, he’d shield me from blows, even if it meant he got caught. I…I’m afraid for him sometimes… He’s got the same levels of altruism as Claudette, but while she’s passive about it, he is very, very active…”
“I love Quentin. He’s like family to me, and I feel secure around him. He, Laurie, and I are like a little siblinghood. Laurie’s the middle sister, ready to fight, Quentin’s the oldest brother who, despite being constantly tired, will protect people he cares about, and I’m the little sister. I…don’t really contribute and feel like a burden when the two of them are with me in trials, but they keep an eye out for me while I work on gens or hunt down totems. You…you shouldn’t make him, um, mad though… I saw him punch The Nightmare once…”
“Detective Tapp is kind of like a dad to everyone. A very strict dad… He still holds firm to the laws of our worlds and tries to make sure we don’t get into legal trouble…if that were possible here… He wasn’t really happy to learn about Nea’s criminal record. Or David’s juvenile records for that matter.”
“I’m not kidding when I say that Kate is a glowing light in this dismal Fog. Despite not having her guitar, she’s always ready to sing for us, and she sometimes even gets others in on it! David is her designated percussionist!”
“Adam- uh, I mean, Mr. Francis, is like another dad to the group. He and the detective sometimes team up on us when someone’s doing something bad. Hehe! I remember once when he disciplined Jake the first time he saw him break one of The Trappers bear traps! He has a good heart, and he wants what’s best for us.”
“Jeff used to scare me a lot. He looked like he’d be ready to get into a fight with someone in a heartbeat, namely David, but after just a few days with him around, I warmed up to him. We share a passion for art, but it was quite a surprise to discover his music taste! He’s a bold man; breaking hooks after getting down from them.”
“If the detective and Mr. Francis are the dads of the group, Jane is definitely the mom. She’s protective and a good listener. She worries about Dwight and me the most, seeing as how I’m not too good with pressure and Dwight gets caught a lot. Sometimes…I’ll have a panic attack, and she’ll take me away from the campfire and just sit with me. Sometimes we talk it out, and sometimes I can’t speak about it, so she’ll hug me…”
“Ash is a wild card! You never really know what he’s going to do next, whether it’s tell a weird story or start throwing threats to the killers. He talks about a boom stick a lot- it’s embarrassing to admit the amount of time it took for me to understand he meant a gun… I remember asking him about his hand and hearing the story of the chainsaw arm. I understand why the Entity didn’t let him have that…”
“Steve is funny. I would call him arrogant, but I’m not sure that’s the truth. Now that I think about it…he’s actually a lot like Meg in that way, except he’s really, really bad at running from the killers…horribly bad… Even so, he’s really good at distracting them, even if that just means throwing names at them. He needs to be saved almost more than Dwight… He’ll do anything for Nancy though.”
“As for Nancy, she’s very helpful in gen rushing. I’m not sure how she does it, but she always seems to find other survivors while working on a generator, and it helps us get them done so much faster! Unfortunately, this does make her a target a lot of the time. I notice that Quentin either stays very close or very far from her during trials; there really is no in between. I wonder if she reminds him of his Nancy back home…”
“Yui is just as wild as Ash. She finds herself in trouble a lot, even when she doesn’t mean to. I guess it’s her brightly colored clothes? I was actually really thrown off when she showed up. I didn’t expect anyone to have an antagonistic reaction to the killers, but she was fully prepared. She’s so powerful! The pallets are really heavy, even for David, but she lifts them up like they’re nothing to slam back down. I…admire her, but I don’t talk to her much…”
“It seems Zarina still doesn’t quite understand her situation, but she seems to be at least more accepting of it than I was. I’m not sure if she’ll ever truly understand that we’re probably not going to ever get out of here, but she’s optimistic about the whole thing, which is better than most of us. She brings a different energy to the group, and it’s motivating us more than ever.”
