I feel like ⚛️🐾 are very comfortable with each other, they’re the closest to a friend of the same age (without it being work/business connections/fan-idol relationship/etc) each other has. 🐾’s calm presence probably is a breather for ⚛️’s chaotic life, add to that
🐾, despite not understanding anything about science, would listen to his yapping anyway. on the other hand I want ⚛️ to be the friend that allows 🐾 to experience the childhood he didn’t get to experience, ⚛️ is exactly the right person for this too since he hasn’t
Both mitya and alyosha's fallen voicelines including the companions you see in their gameplay is so 🥹 alyosha asking tugarin to run tho THAT'S HIS BEST FRIEND
i find odette’s struggle of finding herself and her own voice without feeling trapped by the audience’s expectations of her an interesting contrast to vodyanitsa, who pours so much of herself in her art yet feels unheard by the audience
this is my greed talking but I think her majesty will have a voiceline about 🐾 because he’s the closest we have to a representative playable character of regular common people. his affiliation in his profile is literally just snezh.
desperate to do anything just to barely live, but then he decides that some people are beyond mercy and saving. with all this you might think he’s a very serious character, but despite all this, he can be lighthearted too e.g. him acting like old man outside of what was necessary
there’s so much to think about 🐾 I rly like that he’s very multifaceted making him so hard to reduce to just one trait or gimmick. he is a straightforward person who sees everyone on equal footing, but even if there’s some trust he seems to still maintain some distance
for his country, if you ask him, he’s honest about not knowing the answer yet. he hates bloodshed, and there are times where he hesitates about whether this is the right thing to do because ultimately he realizes the people he’s taken down were actually like him,
by sensitive I mean borzois do enjoy affection but they prefer affection on their own terms and don’t handle harsh environments well, but this doesn’t mean they’re fragile, if anything this sensitivity is what allows them to be independent dogs
🐾 is associated with dogs in general, but his constellation is specifically a borzoi, a very agile sighthound that were historically used to hunt down wolves. I think ppl immediately think of borzois as aristocrat dogs but the more immediate connection to
there’s also their temperament that is unusual and rather un-dog-like, in that borzois are quiet/calm dogs that rarely bark, sensitive, independent, and still affectionate but reserved (they develop attachment to their people but at the same time they don’t demand much attention)
