hallo can I I ask what pronouns org 13 use for themselves and if they’ve changed from their younger selves? I know you’ve done analyses on pronoun usage and sentence structure for like Terra before and I don’t need anything as extensive as that I was just curious what words they chose for themselves
Hi! Thanks for the ask! This is a fun question, and due to how I tend to be, I ended up trying to search extensively for all of them. Though I might've missed some stuff...
(Also I'm going from the top of my head for the order, so they're not listed by their actual order fully and I didn't put screenshots for all of them TvT)
The difficult part is the fact that you can't entirely rely on every scene to find the usage of a 1st person pronoun due to Japanese as a contextual language, as a result, pronouns can be and are often dropped in conversations.
And notably, as this applies to a lot of the Org members, most of them do change which one they use depending on what type of scenario they're in, whether it's who they're talking to or if they're in a casual or serious scenario. But they all tend to have one they default to.
In general, when being formal/speaking to a higher-up, a lot of them will switch to "watashi" (私) of if they're feeling dramatic, they might use the more archaic "wa/ware" (我) (so I'm leaving those out with a few exceptions since it's more about personal 1st person)
Xemnas is pretty consistent in his personal use of "watashi"
Xigbar/Braig (and all known Luxu variants) tend to use "ore" (俺)
I don't have immediate access to the JP version of the Character Files and/or I might've missed it while skimming, so I can't say 100% sure for Dilan/Xaldin (besides his use of wa/ware in situations that call for it) but based off the fact that Lexaeus/Aeleus uses "ore", I'm assuming he does as well (but who knows, maybe he's a "watashi" or "boku" (僕) user ToT)
Vexen/Even leans towards "watashi"
Ienzo/Zexion personally uses "boku" but he does switch to "watashi" when talking to Ansem the Wise (in 3rd image)
Axel/Lea and Isa/Saix are consistent personal "ore" users
For Marluxia/Lauriam, it's pretty interesting!
As Lauriam, when he's on his own or talking to Strelitzia, he uses "ore" but when talking to other people who aren't Strel, he uses "boku" (ボク) but in katakana instead of kanji. (1st and 2nd image using "ore" vs 3rd and 4th image using "boku")
As Marluxia though, we see him use "watashi"
For Elrena/Larxene, she's pretty consistent with "watashi"
Roxas uses "ore" and Xion uses "atashi" (あたし)
So not all of them really changed what they uses too much, though Lauriam/Marluxia is really intriguing beyond the Somebody vs Nobody 1st person pronoun use, but I think that goes more into some tangents LOL But I hoped this was helpful! And still, I might've missed something too 'cause there's a lot of moments v-v
