idk how much i'm gonna yap about this, but i'll try to hold back. :'3

in truffula flu, joel is traveling with topher and their two cats luka and queso. though he's often worried about topher and the kittens, joel isn't as worried about his own well being. joel thinks he's completely capable to survive this chaos with ease and that he's liberated thanks to society crumbling along with all it's norms. if anything, this is a fucked up blessing for the aftermath-ler. joel will go out and search places he shouldn't, looking for supplies or just to sate his own curiosity. eventually, this lands him in some 'he talked shit' moments or just generally worried his boyfriend to death moments which will eventually curb his impulses… hopefully.

for his fighting style, i'd say he's very rouge based. joel doesn't usually do hand to hand combat, but he's good at sneaking around and placing some traps for a zombie to fall into. if and when it comes down to it, he's has a dagger on him, a grappling hook, or he will use whatever pipes or garbage around him to defend himself when needed/available. joel mostly keeps lock picks, glass cutters, more rope, and a laser pointer on him rather than bulky weapons or anything that could get stuck since he's likely to be in a smaller crawlspace.

For her design, I was inspired by jester outfits and those glow in the dark stars and moons ya stick on your ceiling.

When she awoke, Neoma found she had no memories as per the usual kh lore. Unfortunately, she was first found by the bad guys™ and they convinced her that she should fight any other keyblade wielders she meets on her journey. The advice is mostly taken, but Neoma seems to choose at random if she'll be helping or hindering another wielder. That is, until she meets up with her destined party.

At the beginning of her journey, she is always wearing her mask. Often using her oversized gloves to block certain sides of the mask to help better convey her words. (Ex: Tilts her head and covers her left side to show confusion/curiosity.) When she does finally remove her mask, it confuses/concerns some people because she's very blank and monotone.

Her keyblade is more of a hammer and it's name is Starstruck. It is a very big and bright weapon, so she uses it in some of the most unhinged ways possible to get any sort of upper hand. Such as hammer throwing it like Miss Trunchbull and possibly cut someone on it's sharp edged bell to just using it to playfully bonk someone. Either way, if she's able to distract or beat the heck out of someone, she'd tallied it as a win.

And of course~ I had to draw her dream eaters. She has a Necho Cat, Cyber Yog, and Pegaslick. I had a thought about the cyber yog having monster/creature vibes, so idk if it's canonical to hers… but I made it cooler so you're welcome. uwu
