Some of my attacks in Artfight 2024
she is like a soggy pathetic cat to me
I literally hate every job in the world. I don’t want them. I don’t want ANY of them!
is psychopomp girl single…asking for a friend
AND ready to mingle!
Slay the Princess actually does talk about Nature vs Nurture in its many themes now that I think about it
STP shows that both Nature and Nurture(or in this situation, your choices and experiences) are important in the development of someone. Thorn Smitten and HEA Smitten are entirely different voices because of the different experiences he had went through, even though they are both called Voice of the Smitten. Damsel and Witch both came from Soft Princess, and yet they went completely different ways.
Cheated being cheated over is seen as just a part of his nature. But he had technically won in Thorn and Cage. Losing at something isn’t in his nature, but his perspective and how he views the world around him makes being cheated over a reality, like how he is in Razor. Broken being broken down isn’t his nature, that is his perspective of the world. Him believing that he is helpless and weak makes the Princess become much more dominant and towering over him. Him in Apotheosis when paired with Paranoid had given him a new perspective, and ended up being able to fight hand in hand, and even overpowering what he believed to be a god.
Cold has empathy and warmth in his unfeeling skin. Stubborn has the capacity to give up. Cheated can finally win. Opportunist can be honest and truthful. Broken can be mended. Smitten can be mellowed out. Skeptic doesn’t have to be the questioning one all the time. Paranoid can trust and be sure of something. Hunted can become the hunter. Contrarian can stop joking around and take things seriously. Hero can take charge.
Every voice can change, despite their nature. Even if they didn’t know what else to do outside of what they knew.
Happily Ever After made me start thinking what would happen if other voices managed to gain control over the cabin, but I only could come up with Cold, because others would make something resembling already existing routes and there's no use in thinking about it. Cold would maybe make Princess into emotionless and literally faceless target so you wouldn't linger too much over your task and wouldn't get attached emotionally to her. But you can be persistent enough and find out that lack of face is just a mask with emotions buried deep down. Because those never really go away.
