Samarie is a fun freaky character whos also a freak but has fun. However, the way many SEE her with their eyes I think may not be 100% correct,,, you see, many people may have been FOOLED partially well not really into thinking samarie is this anxious scattered mess in the shape of a malnourished waif. well oh no no no because I'm about to ROCK YOUR WORLD.

Samarie seems very impacted by her environment, suggesting that the samarie we see may be almost entirely different than what we see in the game. Samarie likely has a lot going on in her mind, and acts out in the ways she does because of a couple reasons. For starters, Termina is post-apocalyptic and extremely dangerous. She'd likely be worried that Marina or she could get seriously hurt, or worse, die. Not only that, her life is quite literally withering away.

Samarie was apart Fiend Petr's Ninth Circle, which was a group of children chosen for their supernatural capabilities, and because of the fact that they basically have to communicate and whatnot with the gods for all their life they are physically weakened and have an extremely stunted lifespan. This doesn't mean that Samarie would have died instantaneously once she reached whatever age she is, however, I'm lead to believe that its a leading cause for the way she acts -- she REALLY likes marina, and cant imagine a world without her. So, of course, she does everything in her power to ensure marina and her own safety, going to lengths involving murder of marina's father in order to protect marina. Samarie dies either way at the end. Moving onto her dialog, I think an accurate portrayal of the way samarie *could* act would be the image below.

In her beta version, she seems to be much more confident with her beliefs, going as far as to say that Marina dresses up everyday to tease her. It feels like a much more unfiltered view of her. Not to mention its implied she seems to be able to sneak around mostly undetected. also im finishing this like an hour after in the car so im not 100% immersed in my writing so there might be some continuity errors in my writing

TLDR; Samarie is likely much less frantic and anxious and whatever whatever outside the festival of termina because she doesn't have to actively worry about her and marina's survival.
