misha

My general idea for them is that id like them to start off hating each other like strife off the rip levels of hating (which I did doodle once) but the thing about yiffany is that shes seemingly like. a wake up call to the people around her. a quick example of this is how yiffany's reveal caused candy kanaya to start acting with more certainty and hostility, as well as her seeing the true nature of rose's nihilistic tendencies. To add onto this, something about yiffany that I like is that she doesn't really force anyone to do anything! shes hyper independent and while we dont know her true nature yet, its undeniable she marches to the beat of her own drum and appreciates truth over all. with this, she lights the fuse just by her existence and its up to the person holding the bomb on if they want to put it out (stay with the status quo) or let it explode (breaking the status quo). This is very clear her friendship with Tavvy. Tavvy respects Yiffany and tries to keep up with her constantly. going into battle to protect her is seemingly one of the first big choices hes made for himself, and he keeps the ball rolling by choosing to leave with vriska and overhaul the status quo.

this is one of my favorite panels because yiffany didnt force him, didn't beg him, but her body language reads as "I'm gonna go, are you coming with?" Yiffany could figure out what comes next with or without Tavvy (though I do feel inclined to believe she actually his company. he did save her life after all), but its that spark on the fuse that finally lets Tavvy see the true nature of his life and realizing that he doesnt want that for himself anymore. She also affects Vrissy as soon after this she's running after them in the fear of being upstaged. BUT. enough of my Yiffany rage-player meta. to shed some light on Delfi, he's seemingly in the same boat as Tavvy, but worse due to the complete and total isolation he's been dealt, to the point his title is "Who Aches To Be".
