Rose: goes grimdark, loses language skills (isolates from other people), tries to kill bec noir, gets killed. (inverted later when she tells her mother (roxy) she loves her as she herself dies?) (x)
John: …..no clear reaction….?
Jade: almost entirely unacknowledged on the page, to the point of literally acting out pretend arguments with her grandpa’s stuffed corpse. her negative emotions seem only allowed to exist in her altered states: jadesprite (sadness) and grimbark!jade (anger)
Dave: goes very quiet and closed off. indication that he sits silently for a while. tries to break bro’s sword (like he breaks his own swords) but fails (flips off the handle). symbolically inverted later when he decapitates alpha!dirk, slicing the unbreakable katana in half while his own sword stays unbroken.
yeah this originally started as a thesis on ‘john is not ok’
