Hey so how is Madame friend AKA elnina and mister friend AKA lanino like since I’ve seen cat friend AKA Tenna but what about them? Also are Tenna lanino elnina in a polycule or nah?
ah, elnina and lanino. these guys. yup. they sure are, something
i have also been doing them dirty, barely giving them the time of day, but they ARE essential to the story
theyre pretty much the same as their cannon counterpart. that is to say: there isnt much to say
theyre kind, in love with each other, they'll always do their best to support tenna, theyre a impulsive, dramatic, bit egotistical, bit insecure.
they started the Friend thing just to help tenna out, because they saw that Friend WAS actually a net positive on the casino, and if battat were to find out there'd certainly be hell on earth. but eventually they started enjoying it almost as much as tenna, they also love holding a certain amount of power, being the center of everyone's eyes, putting their acting skills to good use
madam and mister friend arent very different from elnina and lanino, theres no carefully constructed persona like tenna has with cat friend, theyre mostly working off what cat friend's persona. they have a flair for theatrics, try to give off a mysterious aura, theyll always do whatever battat says, i dont have much to say to be honest
NOW what i DO have to say. onto the polycule: the weathers and tenna might have some queerplatonic stuff going on but theyre not a in a polycule
they do have a little crush on him, and they have tried to invite him to join them, maybe he even joined them in a test trial at one point, but it didnt last.
theyre very prone to dramatics, loud and big displays of love followed by a week broken up because of some silly misunderstanding. theyre immature in that way.
theyre off and on, whenever theres some stress on the relationship they break up and make it everyone's problem, incluiding tenna's. on periods where theyre broken up they'll try to hog tenna to themselves, and they throw huge fits when they perceive tenna is giving more attention to the other rather than them.
these periods make tenna highly anxious, he still has some divorce trauma after all, and tenna always does his best to set them up together again while not interacting directly with one of them, since theyre usually either nasty about the other, or very sad crying about how much they miss the other. tenna will usually pull double shifts as Friend so he can avoid them until they work it out.
(he'll also usually pull double shifts when theyre broken up because he learned that when theyre broken up, theres a chance that as madam/mister friend they'll flirt with BATTAT)
im kinda doing them dirty lmao, theyre not the kind of couple you roll your eyes and say "geez just break up already", tenna just happened to be there to watch the couple times it did happen and it made him too nervous to ever try joining the dynamic.
the long stable periods are very stable, and the short volatile periods are extremely volatile, and thats just a bit too much for an old TV with attatchment issues like tenna.
elnina and lanino are kind of interchangable, lmao, in deltarune theyre pretty much nothing burguers in terms of personality, feels like im trying to swim in search of treasures in a shallow puddle. i admit i have not given them as much love as i shouldve, i still have to develop them and their own personalities away from each other, AND their own dynamic with battat, but for now this is pretty much it
