Their relationship is complicated

Go my enbys

Red is the one that gets anxious whenever Purple is away and has intrusive thoughts about them dying in horrible ways and never making it back, ending up in them being clingy and paranoid, while Purple suppresses it all down and is more affected physically: they flinch whenever they hear a loud noise and get close to panic attacks when the power goes out, and they're extremely uncomfortable with people that aren't Red touching them due to it reminding them when the Impostor took hostage of them (singular) and was basically about to kill them. Purple has a self sacrificing tendency after that (and even before, as seen in Episode 10 when they offered themself as a distraction and let Red make the surprise attack), which is why they wouldn't be afraid of being away from Red after everything that happened.
