Now that the game is and we know how most of the cast reacts to finding out MC isn’t human, can we know what was going on in their heads when they first heard? Or better yet, how would Mom react? Or Bruno (once he’s a bit older and can handle it)?
How would MC's Mom react to their true identity and the reason why their husband is dead? Would they eventually forgive them or no?
Fiama thought they were all pulling her leg. She was the one who had more trouble assimilating the fact that there was more than one universe and that they were filled with otherworldly beings. The knowledge still bothers her.
Jonny’s mind at first was blank. He thought he had gone insane, or that he had crashed with his car and was in coma or that his dying brain was making him hallucinate. Then he was like, Let’s just go along with it for now.
Horizon: this would be when “Sadalsuud” showed up at the ranch, so just like in this ask their first reaction was skepticism, then a terror so great it send them into flight mode. They truly thought the version they were getting was their parents’ bloodthirsty deity.
Livvy was heartbroken; after what Tzr’nekre did to her, there was no doubt about what was inside her little sibling.
Ara’s mind was a tangle of flashes of memories of what happened the last time she went to the hills, of Noelle, and the elves.
Mom would probably react like Livvy: heartbreak. Yet deep down she would be like I knew it, I knew it. If there’s one thought she’s been consciously ignoring since they put Newman in her arms is the fact that there’s always been something off about her youngest. This is something she felt in her heart and bones. I think she would forgive them; Newman still is the prodigal child.
Bruno would be skeptical too, thinking Newman is joking around. Once Fiama and they convince him, he would blink owlishly at Newman, and ask about their eldritch nature. He would also ask if what happened in Luna Ridge was real too. He would feel a bit shocked, but also amazed by Newman’s otherworldly roots. “Can I skip school tomorrow?” he would ask because, hey, he has to at least try.
