My headcanon is that before he made volt, he also had glowing hair, and where the wires are cut off on his in game hair is where the electricity used to start :)

On Volt

So like many people, I recently played Date Everything and have been obsessed with it ever since. Volt is my favorite character in by a long shot; I love his voice, I love his design, I love his charm, I love the way he calls the player "live wire."

And perhaps most of all, I love his depth. There's a lot of complexity to his character that I feel isn't explored nearly as often as it should be. Because he's a lot more than just the charismatic showman he appears to be on the surface. He's a multifaceted character, and a tragic one.

First off, his charming, flashy persona is a facade. It's a distraction, a shield, a coping mechanism. He wants to be in the spotlight, to keep people looking on him, to have eyes on him- because if everyone is focused on him, than he can distract from the problems behind the scenes. He can keep people from seeing how much the Breaker Box club is really breaking down beneath the flashy veneer. And he can make sure that Eddie is safe, that he can fly under the radar and fix things without being disturbed. If he always has an easy smile on his face, than no one will ever see how badly things are crumbling beneath the surface. If he keeps people looking at him, Eddie will be safe.

He's also protective of Eddie. It's one of his defining traits, and one I find very endearing. At first glance, he's charismatic, suave, flamboyant, but bring Eddie into the picture, and he's a force to be reckoned with. Everything he does is for Eddie's sake, and the idea of anything happening to him is terrifying.

It's tragic how much he's willing to sacrifice for Eddie's sake. He just keeps going, keeps performing, keeps up the act even when he's literally on the verge of death. Even as the power flickers and wanes, he still tries to power through his on-stage announcements and keep up the persona.

He sees himself as a burden on Eddie, because sustaining him is wearing Eddie down. He doesn't let anyone see him falter or break, see how weak he really is. And he's fully willing to let himself die if it means that Eddie will be better off. It's tragic. He's such a deeply tragic character and it just makes me adore him all the more. Volt, the man that you are.

Anyway, TLDR: Volt is a deeper and more interesting character than the fandom gives him credit for. I love him.
