Ok, I'll bite. Answer all of the questions about Clea 👀
Heyy Grena! Thanks for opening the doors for me. @glitter-goblins and @sinisterbells also asked for Clea too, so this is where you'll find her (i'll get to your alternate characters soon!) Now onto my pretty princess with a disorder:
Favourite thing about them: I think what I love most is her selflessness. I knoww, most people would call her selfish at surface level glace, but you really gotta look deeper, at her actions. I see her as one of the most selfless characters in the game. Everything she does is for someone else at the cost of herself. the nevrons for her father, destroying the canvas for Verso and her mother(despite creating half of that whole world), sending Alicia in there so she's safe, fighting that war for her family's and the Painter's future. Hell, even the Hauler when it wants to protect Renoir, it literally tears a part of itself off to help.
Least favorite thing about them: (Nothing. I love Everything about her) okay but for the sake of all time, I reckon what I dislike the most about her is what she did to pClea. Yes it was for effectiveness so she wouldn't have to remain within the Canvas, and I'm really interested in what was going on through her mind as she did that, but still pClea is a real victim :((
Favourite line: Okay we have what? like only 3mins of dialogue from her? I'm gonna cheat with this one and instead put my favourite line ABOUT her. It's the Fading Man's "She paints. She wasn’t scared of death itself. She was sad because there are more works of art that she’d ever be able to see in her lifetime. So many fables from around the world that she’d never be able to collect. To bring to life in her workshop. All the beauty in the world she’d never get to experience. That saddened her. I encouraged them to believe that their dreams are within their grasp. But she proved me a liar. She did love to challenge me. Of all of them, she and I are the most alike."
brOTP: FRANFRAN FOR SURE
OTP: To be really honest with you, as much as I love the potential dynamics with Clea and Sciel, Lune, Emma, or Simon I kind of see her as someone who might not really be emotionally available for any type of relationship, at least after the Incident. Maybe one day, after she gets her vengence.
nOTP: well I actually haven't seen anyone ship Clea with anyone else except Lune, Sciel, or Emma (and Simon), but I'm okay with all of those <33
Random headcanon: In Maelle's ending, if Alicia stayed in the Canvas, i believe Clea would definitely have gone in and out to constantly check in with her, whether it be directly or not (she would miss her sister, but she understands why Alicia has to be the one to decide to leave the Canvas by herself)
Unpopular opinion: She's not actually bitter with those around her all the time, only occasionally (Clea's dialogue after they moved the canvas to the Dessendre Caves, and after beating the endless tower are my biggest support in this)
Song i associate with them: skipping this one because I haven't found The One yet
Favourite picture of them: I have a favourite screenshot of her taken by my cousin @laterwen, it's changed my life completely
now would you look at that. isn't she a work of art
