I’ve come to the conclusion that Cam and Prissy would be perfect for each other OK WAIT WAIT HOLD THE SKEPTICS N HERE ME OUT
Nondegradables Shipping 🤎💚
For Prissy this has TWO routes, depending on if this is pre-game or post-game! I’m gonna focus on pre-game first because it’s w/o spoilers
Prissy is a plastic plant! She doesn’t like what she is or what it means and with her love of plants and life it kinda just feels like she’s almost guilty over being made of plastic, something that damages the world - yet visually imitating something so crucial to it’s function. It’s cruel irony. It’s profiting off the beauty of nature without contributing to it, and she wants to change.
Meanwhile, Cam really struggles with finding people who respect him and what he is. No one goes to a trash can with any sort of fondness - there’s always a goal, always some level of distain. He doesn’t need a confidence boost, what he needs is reliable support and respect of his boundaries and someone he can trust to be honest. He doesn’t want to change.
Together this works REALLY WELL!
Prissy doesn’t need to be convinced of anything, nor would she have any reason to desire Cam changing. He keeps non biogradables contained and he is where/how everything else decays. He’s the first step of compost.
Why wouldn’t she respect all of that? She’s jealous of it, even! He’s so important to plants and that makes him important to her right off the bat. Of course, things get more person based and realistic as things progress, but that progress is only possible because she’s compatible with his boundaries. He’s triggered when people talk about trash in a derogatory way and she wouldn’t do that. Well… Not for most of it at least. Which brings us to the next point-
Cam wouldn’t put her down for her insecurities. She complains about plastic, sure, but she’s made of it so honestly it’d be kinda fucked up if he didn’t give her a reluctant pass. Nuance and all that or whatever. But he still tries to change her outlook, he’s safe enough to do so considering she’s never put him down for what he is.
He just appreciates the cycle of things. Cam LIKES plastic, he’s actually kinda offended when people disregard it. Like it or not, plastic has a role/function in the world and he collects it. Far as he’s concerned, Prissy is gorgeous and needs to appreciate that. The only reason plastic plants exist is to bring persistent beauty and joy to people. There’s no risk of death or decay or pressure of specific care, you just keep them dusted. That’s as good a reason to exist as any, right? He’d see the value in her that Prissy just isn’t quite open to yet.
It would be very mutually healing
Post-game? Well, cut for route spoilers but-
