🔪 The Spy 🍇

Spy is a very flamboyant, intelligent and INCREDIBLY competitive boy. He puts his all into everything he does, striving to be the best and to get what he wants no matter what. Taking great pride into what he can achieve, he shows off a sense of bravado like no other when around others, though of course, this is just an act, as underneath his extravagant persona is someone reeking of insecurity and self hatred.

Although he is quite outgoing and definitely tries to make his mark the second he steps into the room, he tends to spend a lot of his time alone either working on his machine or planning to take down the warriors of peace. He finds comfort in isolation, but ends up being lonely as it is hard for him to make intimate bonds with people due to his own fear of vulnerability and generally “weird” personality.

On the topic of the warriors, he has quite the vendetta against them (not only for the reason being them standing in the way of his plans). He feels strong hatred for Lia mainly stemming from his jealousy of her. Lia seemed perfect to Spy, a person who was the complete opposite of what he was, she was kind, a leader, open, and most of all, loved. Lia being given all this attention and love for a “prophecy” based on nothing but pure luck is something Spy envies as Lia gets to be adored for doing nothing at all while he has to work himself to death just to get a chance at being under the spotlight.

Craving validation from his peers (especially from his role models like those at Omne) he does nearly anything to catch peoples attention, whether it be his appearance or his achievements he will go out of his way to make himself seem appealing, even if most of those attempts end up nearly never working. This need for outside validation makes him incredibly easy to manipulate, as even the slightest bit of flattery can convince him to place his trust into the wrong people.

He believes that the path he's on is destiny, that his machine will prove everyone wrong in what they thought about him, and that he will come out on top no matter what. Spy needs to feel recognized to feel secure, so he will go out of his way to throw himself into danger if it’ll means a chance to be seen by those he admires. This mindset leads him to being VERY impulsive to the point of near self sabotage just to feel like he’s ahead even for a moment, constantly treating things as if they were a competition.

Spy is also, to put it simply, a huge fucking bastard, and likes putting on the "evil mastermind" persona and flaunting about how awesome and cool he is, thinking that if he plays this up enough he'll actually start believing it, but unfortunately this band aid fix won’t repair his crippling self esteem issues (sorry grape man).

The concept of being vulnerable shakes Spy to his core, any “weak” emotion just feels like a free ticket into him getting hurt again, so he represses his pain and pretends that nothing could ever break him like it did before. It doesn’t help he’s very sensitive (which isn’t a bad thing of course!) making him prone to crying or flaming up easily, which just makes him hate himself even more than before.

All of this is listing his personality before his development in story! I can't really talk abt much beyond that because Spoilers but hey!!! you know a little bit about him now yaaaay BUT I will say his life and view on himself gets better with time I swear
