some stupid Oro + Lost Kin doodles
#elaboration on the hc: mato deflects his trauma by putting on a jolly and buoyant fascade. he pushes away his 'negative' feelings#later on when his past starts catching up to him he projects it onto oro as blame#sheo's probably the healthiest here? maybe. idk. he is aloof and shut-up about his more intense emotions#but he finds a way to pour it out through paintings. thus his loss of interest in nail arts#i like oro. so oro gets traumatised the most! perhaps he got injured by his infected parents or he was there right when it happened#exhibits the most symptoms of ptsd perhaps? he fears this will happen again so he puts up this lone wolf philosophy#sly saved their asses and brought them in. mato is keen to learn to protect those he loves from danger if such a thing happens again!#idk. still working on their story :p#nailmaster oro#hk nailmaster#nailmaster#hk oro#hollow knight doodle#hk fanart#hk doodles#thungamajig#hollow knight#lost kin#broken vessel#hk broken vessel#hk lost kin#hollow knight headcanon#hk headcanons#image id in alt text
