tl;cr meme



STEP ONE: Post with your character!
STEP TWO: Respond to other people's characters with your characters. They will then tell you, in detail, what their character thinks of yours -- and as per the meme's title, tl;dr is encouraged, but not necessary! Don't be afraid to ask others for their characters' first impressions of yours as well.
STEP THREE: Write out tl;dr for whoever comments to you in return.
STEP FOUR: Chat with each other in mutual joy/horror/disgust/delight/confusion at where your CR has gone!
BONUS: Use this for writing up CR charts, or if you already have them written, link to them!

Their relationship isn’t complicated by any stretch of the imagination. It’s almost far too simple. In her eyes, the only way to feel successful is by knowing he’s safe and happy. That’s all there is to it. Her faith in Seto is unwavering and trickled with gratitude because she only has a life to call her own because of him. The only reason she has a chance to live at Camp Base, to meet all these wonderful people, to enjoy different aspects of island life is because he saved her.

It’s thanks to the cats, honestly, that she even gave him the time of day. He was terrifying when they first met-she probably thought he was a ghost, then he touched her face and sent her on a maniac ‘holy shit’ spiral back to the lab because that’s not supposed to happen. People were dead-that’s how it was and she couldn’t handle it. But that kitty approval turned her fear into hope and his persistence in finding her, through monster and ghost infested areas, made her see an opportunity. In her desperation, she started to rely on him to find her, to stop Shin, to help her escape, to save other people like him that might remain.

And he did it. Despite all the odds, he managed to beat the most powerful person in her life. He shattered that remaining bit of control she was under and gave her the gift of freedom. Without him, if they hadn’t met, she would’ve willingly gone along with Shin’s plan, she wouldn’t have given a second thought to having a future, she wouldn’t have ever thought of her life as her own-none of that would’ve occurred. It’s only because of him she’s starting to have a sense of self, forming her own likes and dislikes outside of the watchful eye of scientists who knew it didn’t matter. He’s the first person to see value in her for being her and she has an undying affection for him because of it.

He’s brave, he’s kind, he’s the first person she ever had any sort of extensive interaction with. She knows he’s better than her in every conceivable way and a part of her still feels guilty for dragging him that mess because she couldn’t face her own demons, but she’s trying to make it up by finding things that might make happy. Grass whistling? Sign language? Mapping? A home? People? Pretty much trying to laying the groundwork for him to live the rest of his life in peace should her little immortality time limit run out.

There are times when she tries to keep him from going places he wants to explore, because she’s been on this island far longer and knows the dangers go beyond ‘that floaty ghost that can be smashed with a stick’ to a territory he’s unfamiliar with. That he shouldn’t get involved in. And for that, she’s lowkey sorry, but not really. She’s gotta protect her boy. That's the big goal. Stop stressing her out.
