HI MARIN! :D :D This game looks fantastic! Camp + wizarding school = DREAM COME TRUE.

MINA: Rox hates your bossiness! Your intelligence intimidates her! I imagine they Have Words every now and again?

SY: Okay, so I want to say they are friends with a tendency to pull opposite directions and fight about it. From what I saw in the veritaserum thing, it does seem to me like they'd probably get along most of the time but that it'd be unrealistic for two people so domineering NOT to butt heads on the regular. I think that his captaincy may strain their friendship quite a bit more than usual since Rox is so DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO and that is literally his job now. She sees him as a friend so she's so used to being on even ground when she's at odds with him that I think it'll be reeeeeally hard for her to accept even if only on the Pitch that what he says goes. I can imagine they've had tons of fun shenanigans over the years because bad ideas are her favorite kind of ideas.

I don't know if that sounds right to you but let me know! It's possible she could have been one of those girls he briefly dated. It could have fizzled out once things became physical like I read is a common end for his relationships or it could have just exploded spectacularly before it ever really got to that point because that might even be more likely.

RAVI: Rox has SUCH FUN with you while LARPing. She loves to play the evil orc/ogre/giant/demon/whatever to your chivalrous knight. Somehow, she makes those foam weapons really hurt when she's swinging them at you but she always apologizes. SHE WISHES YOU WERE AS FUN OUTSIDE OF LARP AS YOU ARE IN IT! Rox wants to be a bad influence on him and push him to party and break rules but omgggg he's so straight laced. I think she's just about given up on having a good time with him out of character but from the sounds of it he might actually bend to some peer pressure this year. Yessss!

Hi Karissa! Thank you so much!!! omggg I'm sorry to take so long to get to you. Me and Meggie were like OH MY GOD YES while reading Roxie's profile and realizing what huge brats the Coppertale team were going to be, lol.

MINA: Yeah, absolutely! Neither of them seem like they'd shy away from a fight or trying to start shit. Mina's probably intimidated by Rox because she seems so effortlessly cool and self-assured—obviously that's not the whole truth, but Mina tends to make snap judgments about people and gets jealous easily. 8(

SY: Yes yes yes, that sounds dead-on. I imagined they've been great friends since they're both rough-and-tumble and love Quidditch and have the same I DO WHAT I WANT attitude. Sy won't be good at balancing Being A Friend and Being The Captain, so that tension sounds right to me, but I think the best way to handle Sy really is to butt heads with him. He has to learn to compromise. 8( Sy will have always been on Roxie's side so long as the person she was opposing wasn't him, and I think it'd be really interesting to see them navigate this new status quo.

omg, I'd totally be down with them dating briefly. Maybe last year? Sy is like... OK with flirting and making out but when it starts progressing to further than that, he'll freak out and self-sabotage. Like one day they were just arguing in the cafeteria over something stupid and he purposefully blew it up to a bigger deal than it was and Rox responded to that aggression with MORE AGGRESSION and they broke up then and there. I would like to think it took only a day or two for Sy to be like "ok forget about all that dumb shit, we're better as friends anyway right???" Maybe Rox punched him in the shoulder and they've been fine since, lol.

RAVI: HAHA Ravi is genuinely fond of Roxie but yeaaah, he can be a stick in the mud. He is DEFINITELY more fun when he's in character, and can sometimes to be surprisingly open to the questionable suggestions of Rox's chaotic orc/ogre/whatever... Sometimes he lets himself play a rulebreaker. ;) He probably thinks it's fun that Rox gets really into it with the foam weapons, and he'd be happy to spar with her and work on some ~cool moves~. And look Ravi DEFINITELY needs some people to be bad influences on him this year, so the next time there's a party, Rox should try some of that peer pressure on him. :o
