Caleb is a hardcore yearner in a sad way tbh. Like most of his remaining memories are of MC. Like, yea, before making it to DAA and having the chip put in his brain MC was like his obsession n everything and he thought abt her often but he had other thoughts and interests surely, he had experienced other things that didn't have to do with MC completely and that built his character as a person. And he was stripped away from that ig...Or at least he remembers but he doesn't resonate w them at all.
His inner person became his obsession over MC and his memories of her.
,,,if to any1 reading this, i hope you get my 3 am ramble
