@oneiric613 my ely it has been far too long, it's time to release my backlog of caleb ramblings
to this day i hope it was intentional! it would be an insane lore drop they brushed over that'd carry interesting implications for lab days and what i suspect to be their real first meeting👁️
the apple perfume is so quintessentially caleb, i can't help but wonder if the "thorn" in his heart is where this vine starts and ends
the silver roots to pair with the woody notes and their shared origin has me excited for main story
