thinking about Siffrin’s design being (subconsciously) influenced by Snufkin is fun because despite both appearing as mysterious, cool, somewhat aloof travelers, their attitudes regarding companionship are like. almost inverted.

Snufkin deeply values his friendships but also needs time to be alone, to experience the world and travel solo and uninhibited. he’s independent, self-assured, experienced, free-spirited, mischievous at times. someone comforting and fun to be around, but that you can’t hold onto too tightly without stifling him. to try to keep him close would be to keep him trapped, wings clipped, suffocating. he has to be free to roam as he pleases.

Siffrin probably seems exactly like that from the outside! everyone seems to think they can’t WAIT to hit the road unencumbered by their company. they all try to be respectful of Siffrin’s obvious personal space boundaries. and in moments of frustration, Mirabelle and Bonnie both interpret Siffrin’s attitude as him thinking he’s better than them.

all of which is the Exact Opposite of the Truth.

Siffrin sees himself as lesser, not better. instead of needing space and freedom, he craves connection and permanence. they want to be tethered to something, someone. “letting them be free” is as good as telling him he’s unwanted, “respecting his boundaries” is like pushing them away.

and both the party and Siffrin would have remained mired in their misinterpretations if the loops hadn’t dredged up all the issues and agony from whatever depths Siffrin had buried them in.

‼️ PSA: If you ever acquire a small traveler in a pointy wide-brimmed hat, heeled boots, and a worn cloak, please do your research and confirm if you have obtained a Snufkin or a Siffrin. They may appear similar but the methods for responsible care are VERY different. Handling a Siffrin as you would a Snufkin and vice versa will result in great emotional and physical distress for the fellow. Do your due diligence before committing to their care ‼️
