I'm thinking of having Benji have been around for some bit of time. One of things people you look at and wonder how they managed to survive for as long as they have when really it was a mix of luck and using his talent from singing as entertainment in exchange for food and he's so weak looking anyway and obviously has nothing valuable and aside from singing and close up magic and musical theater trivia he's not really got much going. Oh and he's a pretty amazing home cook. Learned from his mom. Mostly Jewish meals that the recipes have been handed down for generations.
Oh and his hugs. You will never meet anyone anywhere who gives better hugs thank him.
Anyway. My idea for these two (Benji and Care) is maybe she came along him and felt sorry for him but then his magic tricks that came with him made her smile and if she likes hugs his are the best and he could make them food. So he joined her and whoever else was with?
And now he's her assistant? Can help keep track of her endless lists and goes and grabs things from across the camp for her etc? It was just an idea I thought could be cute considering with how adorable they both are they could be infinitely more adorable as close friends. And like she well fight anyone who tries to harm him and he will try to stand up for her too even though he doesn't need to and just looks like an upset puppy but he tries. He tries, Care. He does.
