Project: ESCAPE
KuroYamaneko for Kevin
While typically friendly--if not a little shy--Kevin is prone to emotional outbursts if stressed out enough. He has a tendency to freak out first and then begin assessing the situation with a more level head, seemingly possessing a keen eye for these bizarre sorts of puzzles plaguing the facility.
As expected of a male protagonist, he can be a touch naive at times and a little too trustworthy of others when he really shouldn't.
In stark contrast to Alice, Kevin is of course completely bewildered as to his imprisonment in this strange game and is determined to find a way out. He frequently finds himself getting frustrated at Alice's indifferent nature and questioning why she isn't taking this as seriously as she should.
"O-of course I am! How could I NOT?! In case you haven't noticed, we're chained up to a freaking PIPE and locked away in a creepy cell! In fact--how can YOU be so calm?! Nothing about this is normal!"
(DIRECTIONS: Upon being told by Alice that he's causing quite the scene, he only freaks out further, then directing his frustration on her for not being more freaked out too, clearly suspicious of her.)
"H-hey, whoa--what are you doing?! That thing's filthy! Y-you can't just go plunging arm deep into it, you'll catch some kind of disease!"
(DIRECTIONS: Bewildered as he snags Alice by the hood, preventing her from ramming her arm down a toilet to search for a key. It's almost as if he can't believe he's having to explain something this obvious to the strange girl.)
"'Ah! I've got it! The dance steps...correspond to the buttons on the safe! So '7 left' means... We push the left button until it becomes 7. And then we hit the right button until it wraps back around 3, and..."
(DIRECTIONS: This line is part of a series of hints he'll give during a particular puzzle the player has to solve, as he begins to explain his logic and reasoning behind things, showcasing his more methodical side that can surface under pressure--a far cry from his usual panicked/nervous nature.)
