this is richie jonson! hes a tiny cobalt guy who is every bit as nerdy as he looks. he... may or may not be in love with ennsel, but neither of them are accepting enough of their sexualities yet to say that theyre matesprits even though they spend a ton of time together, so they just think of each other as best friends who kiss sometimes in secret. hes not good at hiding it anyways because whenever him and ennsel accidentally touch, both of them blush. bilard and olsynn have a running bet that they will catch richie and ennsel making out someday, but they have yet to be caught. he is sort of becoming a member of the alleyway crew (bilard, olsynn, tommow, hoagie and ennsel) and hes pretty much just glad to have friends. hoagie is good to talk to when richie has issues he needs to work out, and tommow always gives good hugs although his conversation is limited - at least tom is a good listener. richie is unfortunately allergic to practically everything, so he has to be very careful about what he eats, and also instinctively tries to get ennsel to not eat whatever he finds because of this. him and ennsel have some very questionable nicknames for each other, but at least it’s mutual.Â
