#kaleny's relationship dynamic charts that nobody asked for

[kalboykiyay]

Alright, So I did Swan next because I've got some shit to say! A lot of shit to say!

Purple (Best Friends)

Fox: Best Friend- This one explains itself, Swan and Fox seem to have the best relationship but it's in a very subtle way. They probably have a bunch of inside jokes, let's be real.

Blue (Good "Friends")

Cowboy: Would Protect with life- this is interchangeable with Rembrandt's ngl, and it's not just because Swan craves the sweet release of death. Though I still stick by the notion Swan wanted Cowboy to join the Warriors out of some sort of watchfulness, because like, he really just said "Cowboy comes too." But like, what if Cowboy didn't wanna join the gang? Swan really just spoke for him like a parent or something, but if I continue with these two, I'd probably be inclined to make an entire post on just Swan and Cowboy's Relationship. Which I just might do honestly.

Rembrandt: Would kill a fool for- Okay, I'm inclined to believe that Swan is actually protective of Rembrandt. The little tap when they're getting on the train (Thanks for pointing that out, Ariyn), him telling Rembrandt to stick close by, the patient and kinda softer tone when he told Rem to go look around in the graveyard (he didn't even seem all that mad when Rembrandt protested, in my opinion), and him checking on Rembrandt during the Punks fight (they're literally beating his ass but as long as Rem is okay, it's all good). So yeah, you hurt Swan's cygnet, you're going to die. End of story.

Green (Friends, but not close)

Snow: Trust- I don't think there's anything to "find" in Swan's Relationship with Snow. Strong sense of trust and Swan could probably confide in Snow.

Cleon: Fellow Parent- This one kinda explains itself. They watch over the the kids and... What the fuck do these two talk about? Are they even friends? Iono, fam.

Cochise: Fun to be around- I'm of the notion that Swan and Cochise have a pretty good relationship, but I think that there relationship says more about Cochise than it does about Swan. Swan is a loner, but I doubt Cochise is the type of person to just let things be considering that it's implied that he tried to join the gang multiple times, so I'm inclined to believe that he probably wasn't going to just leave people who looked like they could use a friend alone.

Yellow (Nothing Overly Noteworthy About Their Relationship)

Ash: One of the babies- Okay, I'm inclined to believe that these two could've been close but they didn't get to have that opportunity because of Ash's untimely demise. If Ash had stayed around until the movie, he probably would've been treated similarly to Rembrandt.

Vermin: Not exactly the brightest- this one is pretty straightforward. Swan thinks Vermin is a dumb bitch and that's all. In all seriousness, I just don't see Swan and Vermin being friends. Like, they can get along, but I don't think Swan would be able to deal with Vermin's complaining for an extended period of time, and Vermin (based on the way he responded when Swan told him to sit down and shut up) probably doesn't care much for Swan either.

Orange (Mild Dislike/Discomfort)

Ajax: Frustration- okay, look. After reading the original script, playing the game and taking time to reflect on Swan and Ajax's Relationship, I've concluded that Swan doesn't actively dislike Ajax. Like, sure Ajax is a total prick and a god tier piece of shit, but I'm not inclined to believe that Swan and Ajax's strained relationship is because Swan is frustrated with him. In the original script, when Snow indicates that he thinks they should go back for Ajax, Swan says, "I've had it with him." And you could see it on his face when Ajax left that he had, in fact, had it with him, so he let him leave. You can see that he gets more frustrated over the course of the movie but it's obvious that he's at least trying to keep his patience with him and while it was mean of him to insult Ajax (If you want someone to do something, being a bitch about isn't gonna get them to help, especially if they're somebody like Ajax) but he eventually figured that it wasn't worth it.

Damn, I had way more to say earlier but I forgot. This is all I got for now and now I'm probably going to have to do a deep dive on Ajax's character after this.

Aight, so here's Fox's Relationship Dynamics as interpreted by The Kalenko.

Purple (Best Friends)

Swan: *Talks shit telepathically.*- They're probably talking shit about Ajax, let's be real. Though the could just end up talking shit about anyone tbh. I'm inclined to believe that Fox trusts Swan a great deal though honestly. I couldn't see them not having a positive relationship.

Blue (Good Friends)

Rembrandt: Wants Better for him- Original script Fox said something to Rembrandt that indicated that he thought that he could get somewhere better in life than being in a gang, so I'm inclined to believe that Movie Fox probably would also want Rembrandt to take his talents and put them to better use.

Cochise: "I wish he'd stop talking about my shoes."- Aside from Cochise roasting Fox's shoes, I'm inclined to believe that they are an undefeatable duo when it comes to roasting people.

Green (Friends, But Not Close)

Vermin: Pretty funny guy- He's cool with Vermin and finds him funny but I don't see them being overly close despite Fox's flashback mission.

Yellow (Nothing Overly Noteworthy About Their Relationship)

Ash: Good kid- Pretty self-explanatory.

Cleon: Respect- I assume that Fox has a cordial relationship with Cleon and they get along pretty well, but it's nothing to write home about. Simple respect for his leadership abilities and whatnot.

Snow: Respectable- Now, I thought about grouping Snow and Cleon together, but I'm inclined to believe that the respect he has for Cleon is different than his respect for Snow. While I think that he respects Cleon's leadership, I think that he respects Snow's potential. Fox isn't stupid, so I'm inclined to believe that he probably also saw Snow's leadership potential.

Cowboy: Thought he was 11 at first- Fox saw Cowboy in the hangout and thought he was a child and you will not convince otherwise. Though let's be real, who didn't think Cowboy was a child when they saw him?

Orange (Mild Dislike/Discomfort)

Ajax: *Laughs and walks away.* Look, Fox and Swan talk shit about him telepathically, of course he's gonna laugh when he sees him. All jokes aside, the potential for fics and headcanons here? It's so good. these two don't like each other and you can see that in the movie (more so in the OG script), but you can tell in the game that this wasn't always the case, so what happened that caused them to not like each other anymore? I'll probably touch on this more in Ajax's post because I have a lot to say about this dynamic.

And that's it for today! Hope you found this interesting or entertaining!

So, my Alignment Charts are running low and I need things to post, so I decided to post my relationship dynamic charts. These are more so to help me remember dynamics for when I'm writing fics, so naturally, these are a bit personalised. First up, I did Cochise's relationship with everyone!

Purple (Best Friends)

Ajax: Floozy Gang- He and Ajax have been shown to have a very good relationship, so I'm inclined to believe that they're close, plus, the Floozy Gang Boys are all probably good friends anyways.

Vermin: Ride @ Die- This explains itself tbh.

Blue (Good Friends)

Cowboy: Floozy Gang Associate- FGA aside, they seems like they have a good relationship anyways.

Fox: "His Shoes Fucking Suck, but he's cool."- This is a reference to something I believe Blob said when we watched the movie together, where they said that Cochise was roasting Fox's shoes in the opening sequence. Now, I'm inclined to believe that Cochise is always talking shit about Fox's shoes.

Snow: Deep Respect- They just seem like they have a really good relationship honestly, especially in Sharp Dressed Man.

Green (Friends, But Not Close)

Swan: Cool when he isn't grouchy- Maybe it's because Michael Beck and David Harris seemed to get along so well in production photos, but that combined with the fact they were together at the start of the game makes me think that they get along pretty well to at least hang out somewhat. Though, I think it would say more about Cochise's charismatic personality than Swan's personality. Though, I'll have to go more in detail about that in Swan's post.

Rembrandt: Must Protecc- Safe to say that almost everyone's relationship is gonna be like this with him, except like, Cowboy's and Ajax's probably.

Yellow (Nothing Overly Noteworthy About Their Relationship)

Cleon: Warlord- This one kinda explains itself. He respects Cleon but they don't seem to be overly close.

Ash: "Who?"- Okay, the quote is more of a joke about how these two don't seem to interact...? But like, why though? Honestly, I didn't see anything that might indicate that they were close, though I guess technically Vermin might have been their link to friendship, but I'm too lazy to fix this.

I'll upload the rest of these when I... Actually make them lol.
