Coco Code Vein - Tumblr Posts
[So a heads up, this will be tagged as spoilers since it could apply for one or even two of the endings in Code Vein as well as mentioning parts of Vestiges! This will also be tagged as Code Pain for the sad/dark aspects aspects of it. It’s another long one so without further ado, I bring you more headcanons. Enjoy!]
Coco whens she discovers that you won’t be coming back
- When you first arrived at Home base, she was very standoffish towards you starting out because she was scared to get too close to you. She lost her son and got Kevin killed after letting him walk away with harvested blood beads that she sent him to collect among other things
- Of course it wasn’t a surprise that over time, as you stayed around and bought wares and even helped retrieve memories for her, she began to welcome your face coming through the doors of the church. After some time, you two even spent time together just talking and enjoying each’s other’s company
- So when she didn’t see you come through the doors after going to fight Silva? internally she was devastated, especially if no one came back at all.
- Coco would be very sentimental and would be beating herself up inside for not letting herself show anything if no one came back. Murasame and Davis would definitely be found comforting her as they would be as equally distraught.
- I could see her ultimately leaving Home base due to all the memories it has of you and of everyone else, either to find out what truly happened or because she feels suffocated there.
-Now I would personally say that being the person she is, she would make sure that Murasame and Davis wouldn’t be out of luck on a merchant before she leaves at least
- However, if only you failed to return? Prepare to see her turn cold as stone should anyone ever mention you to her. While everyone openly mourns your death, she would do it privately due to her memories of her own failures.
- If she saw you as family, especially as her child? Complete shut down at the sound of your name. She wouldn’t even want to mention you by name, let alone what you’ve done to attempt to ensure peace for a little longer. After some time, she would be able to ultimately mention you again, but with more of a wistful tone in her voice.
- If she saw you as a lover, I could see her being more open in her mourning in the sense of joining them to leave flowers at your feet at the throne. I could also see her visiting your resting place on occasion. Now she’d never drink or do anything that self destructive but with support from the others, I could see her potentially opening up and attempting to be more welcoming over time, if only to honor your memory.
