Andy is a human from another world who lost their memory and is trying to survive in Twisted Wonderland. It's complicated... but they always do their best to keep going while helping the people around them.

They're a deeply empathe tic person who isn't afraid to show their emotions and understands the feelings of others. All in all, they're just a genuinely nice person.

They have a heart of gold, but that doesn't mean you should take them for a fool.

So.... yeah they're simply doing their best, while quietly fearing being left alone and forgotten.

AndyFacts🦐:

🦐-They're originally Indonesian. 🦐- "Andy" is a nickname Ace gave them because they couldn't remember their real name. 🦐-As the story progresses, they'll gradually recover pieces of their memories and learn more about themselves. 🦐- Their real name is Yuu. 🦐-Everyone at NRC thinks they're a guy. It started as a misunderstanding, but Andy eventually didn't see any reason to correct them. 🦐-In my posts, I use "they/them" pronouns to keep their gender a mystery, though most of the characters refer to them with "he/him" pronouns.

his dreams basically proves how much he cares about it, he wants Yuu to be happy, he doesn't want to lose his friend, but i feel that Ace is a bit in denial about the possibility of Yuu going home

during the first Mickey investigation when Deuce and Grim get sad about the idea, he just tells them to stop worrying since they don't even know if they will even find anything, and even during the dream he admited he never thought Crowley would actually find a way home for Yuu (honestly, valid, no one believes that)

and while i love the classic crash outs during the final goodbyes and the characters snapping and breaking the mirror, variety is the spice of life, and the idea of a character overblotting only after Yuu has already left has such a juicy angst potential

and i feel Ace is the best option for that, as one of Yuu's closest friend, their ride or die, who's biggest desire is for them to be happy and also stay with him, i can see ace asking what Yuu want, and whatever is the response, as much as it hurts him, he won't show it, and will do what is best for Yuu

but because of his denial, and how he doesn't allow himself to think about it, he severely underestimates how much it affects him, so the final goodbyes are said with a sad smile and some teasing

and is only after some days that it finally sinks "oh, Yuu is... gone, i'll never see them again", and their absence physically hurts, every joke or coment that he has to swallow mid sentence because the one that should listen isn't there, every second when there's an vague space, that now just feels empty, ever shared place, item, memory, the knife in his chest gets twisted more and more

everyone around can see him getting worse, Ace refuses to talk about it aside from a superficial "yeah i miss them, hey did you do your homework?", he alternates between avoiding places associated with Yuu, and desperately seeking every echo of their presence, Ace's grades get close to a failing point, he isn't even trying to pretend he cares about any resposabilty on his dorm or club

Ace still doesn't admit to himself how he regrets just letting Yuu leave, of not telling how they were important to him, of not even asking, if they would consider staying with him a little longer

after all, Yuu wanted to go home, nothing Ace could have said would change that

and one day, he finally snaps, seeing the photos Yuu took, and when thinking about each of them, Ace realizes... he... can't.... rebember.... Yuu's... voice

Ace doesn't even know how he ended up in the mirror chamber, all he can think about is about that mirror, that cursed mirror, if only this thing didn't exist, if only the option never existed.....

Ace breaks the mirror, and just laughs because.... it is just useless... it won't change anything now, he wasted all the chances he had to make any meaningfull choice

the other students find sitting on the glass shards, crying, talking to Yuu, just begging them for a response, anything, his tears turned into blot

is only when they point that out that Ace notices what is happening, but like everything else, is already too late

Ace overblots, and i think it would be so good if he died, because he is just a normal teenager, with little power, and the overblot drains his magic reserves much faster than of all the other powerfull mages who went throught it

Deucey had too much rizz, Ace rizzpola has been rizzed
