Apathy, or Rage?

Feeling so little yet so much...

yeah those two characters ARE heavily influenced by their teenage memories of each other. and if we just - yoink that part out of the jenga tower of their personalities, what fills the gap? what builds around it???

because Lea is just...active and unknowing. he radiates light and action but he's so scared he'll lose people he'll bend to keep them here. explain himself for too long and lose them anyway. he doesn't know himself because he's too busy being himself. he doesn't think he's brave because he sees all the times he was afraid. all the times he lashed out or goofed off because the stress was too much.

and Isa is self reflective. he Knows himself. knows what he "wants" and has his process to get there but nothing really fits. he can't "exist" if he keeps looking to fit himself to the problem and other people and standards he set up / the World set up. who is he if he doesn't measure himself against a standard? once the World is gone, what does he do?

and like. sticking them with amnesia in Space is fun, because. now despite being sun and moon coded, Axel is just. starting to self-reflect and ask who he is and why. Saix can't compare this situation to anything, so he's starting to feel his own feelings coming through.

and they have to figure out who they are on a time limit, that they both know about, which adds to the stress and transformation. it's wild.
