thoughts on other fog dwellers.



　NEA KARLSSON
my ride-or-die dìyī. everything i learned i picked up from her. if you think i am bad, you are in for a treat if you meet this sassy sweed. she is the smartest, snarkiest, most cunning of us all. a fearless lynx whose craftiness warrants immediate respect. vindictive sometimes. one time she got mad and set all the cornfields ablaze. no f***s are given, which explains why she is a horny degenerate all the time. hah! if we are not arguing, we are sharing a smoke at the back of wreckers' yard, coming up with ways to wreck the lives of our enemies. the sh*t we get up to would make the entity shed a tear of joy. maybe that is why it has not punished us yet. meg and i have this little competition with her to see who can piss off the most killers. she is winning by a landslide, but i am catching up~


　WILLIAM ( BILL ) OVERBECK
tough, wise old man. keeps soldiering on. when i first met him, i thought for sure he would not last in this world. boy was i wrong. heh. man is the definition of unbreakable. relentless energy backed by years of hardship. he taught me to dig deep. get up, keep fighting. do not be a quitter no matter how dire the situation may seem. he has pulled me through my darkest hours. for that, my respect for him will never falter. the others worry about how much he pushes himself, but i know, he is right where he wants to be.


　KATE DENSON
sunflower. probably the purest soul you will meet. so full of hope. no wonder the entity wanted her so bad. she is too good for this world. i never really appreciated acoustics until one night her music lolled me to sleep. she just has this way of changing the somber mood around the campfire. more often then not, i find myself drawn to her uplifting vocals. i do not like to be dependent on anyone, but i will be the first to admit she is the first person i go to when i want to escape, if only for a bit.


　YUI KIMRUA
has the heart of a winner. a champion like me. rejects tradition. will not let anyone tell her who she needs to be. that is a quality i greatly admire in a person. she is the definition of a kindred spirit, but something more. she adapted to the fog quicker than most do when they first come to. her arrival brought the inspiration i was lacking. gave me the push forward that i needed to amp up my game. she is not afraid to challenge rules thought to be set in stone. her versatility makes trials interesting. knows her mechanics well. has some seriously strong pallet game! and anyone who makes hell for the killers is a saint in my book.


　THE HUNTRESS
fiercely territorial yet lonely rabbit with a mega mommy complex, but she takes it to the next level. listen to me when i say, if you hear her lullaby, turn the other way. you do not want to catch her eye, or her hatchet. wish i knew how to get rid of the hare mask she gave me. smashing, burning, throwing it away―nothing. works.

　QUENTIN SMITH
i often wonder how a guy can seem like he is asleep all the time but is actually awake. somehow quentin manages to do it, like he is trapped somewhere in the twilight—not quite asleep but not quite awake. when i think about the horrid demon that chases him relentlessly, i start to get where he stands. our insomnia is one thing we share in common, but he is too much of a bleeding heart even if he does not see it. i mean, to be willing to sacrifice himself to prevent that same demon from hurting the girl he loves? that takes heart. he has got this notion that me and the others need to be saved. he is not wrong, but it is sometimes nauseating how selfless the guy is. but at the same time... i admire his drive. even while he is in a constant state of delirium, he keeps pressing on. i will let him continue to think he is making a difference, if only to safeguard that resolve, and keep him strong.


　THE TRAPPER
they are not built bigger or brawnier than this guy. you would think being around as long as he has would make him predictable, but ol maccie still finds ways to amp up his game. lowkey respect.

　MEG THOMAS
oh megadeath. she is not perfect, but she tries her baby best. she always seems to be there for me even when i am not there to return the favor. ugh. how can a girl be so forgiving? in my written memories, i have left her to die on the hook, and she would just be okay with it! why would anyone be okay with that? i used to get mad at her for no reason at all. why does she not get mad? why is she so compassionate? why does she put everyone before herself? she puts on a strong, competitive front so no one will worry about her, but anyone with a working pair of peepers can tell she is slipping. how long until she ends up in the void..?


　THE CLOWN
far from funny. this guy is faster than he looks. odious in every shape and form, with disgusting strength to boot. just being remotely close to him makes me want to douse myself in bleach. he is a total creep. finger lickin nasty. i think he actually enjoys it here. even more than me. saw one of my fingers hanging from his key ring, like... some kind of trophy. he makes me sick.
