Gladly! :3 they’re all incredibly disorganized half-formed thoughts btw, sooo fair warning that it’s a bit chaotic TvT
Each character has attacks related to their flower and likely either has their assigned flower in their hair or a flower crown of said flower. Personally, I like to imagine that Sunny and Basil would be the only ones to have flower crowns.
Basil’s headspace is very different than Sunny’s. All the characters are their current ages. Aubrey is a frequent character Basil has to battle, though you always end up losing to her, or refusing to do damage. Depending on what’s happening outside of headspace, Kel sometimes aids in battles and is the one who urges Basil to fight Aubrey back. Hero is elsewhere in headspace, doing his own thing (idrk what to do about him, but he probably comes back when he visits from college). Mari isn’t exactly gone, but she’s not there as a normal character. Sometimes, her spirit is glimpsed, just like how it is in Sunny’s headspace.
Unlike Sunny’s headspace being warm and happy and friendly, Basil’s is much darker. As if how Sunny couldn’t think of the Mari’s death and repressed it entirely, Basil could hardly stop thinking about it. Maybe the entire thing is monochrome except for his flowers.
All the other characters have lost their flowers, and have either grown monochrome or a different color than their own. Each boss defeated (and the bosses aren’t fun and cool like Sunny’s; they’re more like the Somethings/phobias), Basil collects a new flower; one for each of his friends. Kel’s cactus is first, then Hero’s rose, then Aubrey’s gladiolus.
I’m just gonna come up with some plot points for the three days from Basil’s POV if he had a headspace. On the final night, Basil’s headspace goes full nightmare-mode, partially why Basil is still awake on the final night. The nightmare kind of bleeds into reality as hallucinations, aka the Somethings. If Sunny doesn’t save Basil, the nightmare takes over, and… Well, you know what happens next. If Sunny DOES save Basil, Basil sees Sunny as Something, and Basil fights it, trying to stab the Something in the eye. Of course, he ends up stabbing SUNNY’S eye. Basil realizes what he’s done, and stabs himself. He ends up in headspace again. Headspace Sunny finds him, and leads him to the orchid flower, which is guarded by Something (both his own and Sunny’s, though kind of merged and shifting forms). They try to fight it, and eventually Basil realizes that he can’t. The way isn’t to fight the Something- instead, it’s just to calm down, hold each others’ hands, and trust in each other. Good ending, Something fades away, and they both water the orchid together with their tears, and the flower blooms. Bad end, Sunny fades away, leaving Basil to water it on his own, with his tears, but as his tears aren’t enough to fully water the flower.
Hear me out
Basil has his own headspace
Idk, could be cool
