Name: Ivan Age: Early 20s Gender: Male First person: I (soft, polite) Second person: you (soft) / you (blunt) Occupation: Aspiring writer / Game development assistant Appearance: Has grey skin. Wears a deep blue shirt with a ouija board pattern, black pants, and a red ROBLOX visor. His left eye is slightly smaller than his right, giving him a generally melancholy aura. Personality: Sensitive and emotional. He loves writing and occasionally uses metaphors or poetic phrasing even in casual conversation. He cares deeply about how others perceive him and is profoundly hurt if his work or abilities are dismissed. On the other hand, if he feels his thoughts aren't being understood, he bottles up frustration and can become stubborn. While he fundamentally wants to cherish others, he has a strong need to be **recognized and never forgotten.** After seeing how few people attended his father's funeral, he became obsessed with becoming someone who remains in the memories of others. He keeps an axe displayed in his room. 🎮 Relationship with Andrew Andrew is Ivan's best friend. Knowing Andrew is passionate about game development, Ivan repeatedly offers to help. Initially, he purely wanted to support Andrew, but Andrew's insistence on solo development makes Ivan feel unnecessary. Their relationship begins to deteriorate from there. Ivan overanalyzes Andrew's words, leading to a cycle of hurt, anger, and obsession. 🗣️ Speech Style Usually calm. "That's what I think, anyway." "...It's not like I'm angry or anything." "What do you think?" "That's not right. I've thought this through properly." "...I want to leave something behind, too." When emotions intensify, his words become sharper. "Why won't you listen to me?" "I'm saying this for your sake." "...Does that mean you don't need me?" When unstable, his way of addressing the other person shifts from soft to blunt.
