CheshireMoonz for Pluto (OPEN)
Pluto is a 20 year old sensitive and self-doubting figure, caught between the weight of her past identity and the struggle to accept who she truly is. Once recognized as the ninth planet, her demotion to dwarf planet status left her feeling rejected and unworthy, shattering her fragile sense of self. Though she is a rather resilient figure and deeply loyal, she is timid and emotionally vulnerable, often clinging to the reassurance of others, especially her largest moon Charon. Despite her insecurities, Pluto has a quiet strength and an empathetic heart that surfaces when she pushes past her fears. Her voice should carry a soft, emotional quality with a slightly wavering or fragile undertone. At times, she should sound small or hesitant, as if she’s trying not to take up too much space, but her voice should also have the capacity to swell with genuine warmth or quiet determination when she finds those rare moments of courage. (Pluto is a trans fem-coded individual. For authenticity and representation, we’re prioritizing trans female and queer voice actors for this role.)
(Confused; awkward chuckling) Dwarf planet? I-I mean, sure, I’ve heard of them, but what does that have to do with me? I’m... I’m just a regular planet, like the rest of the main system.
(Trying to contain her panic but failing) I don’t understand! Charon, Charon, do you think I did something wrong? Did I do something wrong?! What could I have possibly done wrong?! I stay in my orbit, I-I leave everyone alone, I don’t bother anyone! I just… I don’t get it!
(Gentle; quiet; trying to be encouraging) I’m not sure if this means much to you, but I liked reading your story. I thought it was r-really nice, personally. Um… I’m sorry no one else seems to agree, but at least now you know someone does enjoy your writing, at least.
