"The arcana is the means by which all is revealed"
Reading all these just makes me think that such personality shifts would be a very strong reason for Joker to be extra depressive when the mask comes off. Given he’s painfully aware of it all it hurts to see all his friends so different from who they really are. He can’t do anything though!Isabelle
- Brainwashed Isabelle is what happens when you remove all of her other personality tropes except for her desire to work
- She’s a well oiled machine who’ll do whatever it takes to make a job well done, even if she has to sacrifice her or other’s health in the process
- She has a small team of Toads and Toadettes
kidnapped and forced against their willworking under her- She will gladly overwork her staff far past the point of exhaustion without even the slightest ounce of remorse, basically running a sweatshop
- She’s surprisingly intimidating for her stature
- Sometimes her workers will switch out her regular glasses for her regular, non-brainwashing, pair. She’s still going to overwork them but she’ll be just ever so slightly nicer about it
Inkling
- Inkling’s way less chatty and energetic than her usual self, acting a lot more like how she is in Splatoon 3
- Because of the mind control a lot of her emotions are pretty dulled, so she’s pretty much in a constant state of boredom unless she’s either a.) fighting off intruders or b.) watching Lunaris’ army rain chaos down upon the realm.
- Her eyeglass allows her to manually turn on and off the special limiter
- She especially loves spamming her autobomb special on poor unsuspecting victims, though the other members of the army tend to get pretty annoyed by all the explosions and mess that gets left afterwards.
- The best means of breaking her out of mind control would probably be by playing a certain heavenly melody. The only problem is her ear piece is constantly playing an annoyingly loud static noise in her ear, making any attempt to listen to music with it on basically impossible. This also means she probably won’t hear you if you try talking to her on that side.
- After breaking out of the mind control, don’t let Inkling anywhere near the eye piece. With how fashion driven the Inkling species are, she could be so drawn to the utter stylishness of the item that might put it right back on willingly.
Zelda
- If I had to compare brainwashed Zelda to anyone, I’d say she’d probably have sort of similar vibes to Mimi from Paper Mario
- Due to Zelda’s own skills in telepathy, she probably was a little bit more difficult to wrangle under the brainwashing, so she wears the mask pretty much 24/7
- With the little mental fortitude Zelda had left she managed to find a way to prevent herself from using the triforce of wisdom/while in her brainwashed state.
- With the mask on she’s a lot more egotistical and will happily mock or look down upon anyone who isn’t Lord Lunaris or Lady Odessa.
- The magic she tends to use is a lot more cruel yet also strangely pretty creative. Not having to worry about pesky morals means she can experiment way more with the sorts of spells she casts. But since she’s still a reincarnation of Hylia, Zelda is incapable of using any explicitly dark magic much to her own displeasure.
- She gets incredibly annoyed at any “Lol if you’re wearing the moon mask then who has the sun mask?” jokes. If you have the gall to ask such an asinine question then you shouldn’t be surprised when Zelda turns you into a snail and throws you into a pile of salt.
- I think it’d be funny that when Zelda breaks from mind control, while on one hand she’d obviously be horrified at her awful actions and attitude, she couldn’t deny that she made a ton of progress in her magical studies while working under Lunaris.
Pichu
- The hood pretty much acts like how an actual Falcon hood works. It dulls his sense of sight and hearing which mellows him out. He doesn’t have any of that Pichu Branded Sass™ and is honestly just kinda vibing.
- Take off the hood however, and he’s pretty much an extra rabid animal lol. Friend or foe? It doesn’t matter to Pichu so long as he gets to rip someone to shreds!
- Bumps into walls a lot lol
Omg that is cute and accurate af LOL! Nobody understands their friend dynamic at all given Joker is so cheery and talkative while Inkling is stoic and quiet. Somewhere in their subconscious they are just drawn to each other and put up with one another though I imagine half the things Joker is rambling about goes in one ear and out the other. He probably tries to do dumb card tricks on her and she just stares at him blankly the whole time
