“Hello? Yes I'd like a therapist please. Yes, all of them.”
—Lucy, Grave Mistake
Lucy Rose is a tired animator who has been friends with Ben and Kate Dexter for a long time. Lucy is the sensible member of the group and enjoys nerd things like LARPing, comic conventions, and self insert superhero selves.
Appearance
Lucy has apricot skin, long rosewood brown messy hair that is tied into a low ponytail and grey eyes which become yellow when she feels intense emotions such as anger or shock.
She also has three freckles on each of her cheeks.
Her outfit consists of a dark green cap, an orange hoodie, a black t-shirt, dark blue trousers and rosewood brown shoes.
Notable Outfits:
LARPing Outfit
In "Orcs and Dorks", she wears a LARPing getup that remains the same as her standard look, but adds elf ears to her regular ears, a grey armored chestplate, and pauldrons and brown gloves.
Chaos Outfit
When dressed up as her superhero persona Chaos, she loses her hat and wears an orange superhero suit with a green C on the front, a belt buckle, and green gloves. She also has a green cape and wears a green eye mask.
Zombie Movie Outfit
In "Grave Mistakes" while being the main star of Ben's zombie movie, her main outfit is changed to look battle damaged to fit her role. She wears blue striped vambraces and bandages around her arms while also wearing a blue backpack and gaining shin guards, her hoodie has the sleeves rolled up and the bottom of the hoodie is tattered and ripped, there are also various pink blotches on her hat, symbolising some sort of blood or fluid.
Personality
Lucy is shown to be the straight (wo)man of the trio, being the often serious character making a living. Unlike the boisterous Ben and Kate, she is very sensible and cautious and is almost always reluctant to join them on their misadventures. She's also shown to be very dramatic at times, playing very well into her role in the LARPing community and making a short quip while she and Ben jump out of an airplane. Lucy tries her best to live a peaceful, mundane life but is constantly thrown into crazy situations (most often caused by Ben) which is her source of sadness and anger and anxiety. Despite Ben and Kate's antics are the cause of her life being twisted and traumatic, she is shown to be somewhat understanding of their interests and professions, such as when she casually tells Kate they already got her a magic skull for her birthday, and when she has the idea of starting the trio's own filming company after she and Ben get fired from many other jobs, thus helping Ben live out his dream of becoming a professional filmmaker. She is shown to be very joyful in many of her own interests more than Ben or Kate's, such as LARPing and comic conventions, and is shown to be content with bringing them along for the most part, such as when she took Kate with her to her LARPing session (but not Ben as he would've tried turning it into an action film), and when all 3 were meant to go a comic convention out of town.
Relationships
Ben
Ben is Lucy's childhood friend, and her only one, stated herself in her song. While she's the one to make Ben see sense most of the time and is reluctant to join in on his film stunts, she deeply cares for him but disapproves of his reckless nature and how he tries turning everything into an action film. She has snapped at him before, most notably, when she once claimed his hobby was worthless. She later apologized for this and suggested they start a film company (seeing how every other job they've been fired from.)
Kate
Lucy treats Kate more harshly than she does to Ben, and much like him, she is not afraid of hurting Kate. Furthermore, she treats Kate like how she appears: a child. Despite their altercations they seem to be on good terms.
Unnamed Ex
At some point in her life, Lucy had a relationship with an unnamed, ambiguously-gendered partner. The two broke up under currently unknown circumstances, though it's implied in Lucy's animation in "Movie Massacre" that they "stole [her] heart and left [her] without saying goodbye." The Unnamed Ex is featured in the Crash Zoom opening (with their face shadowed out, but still visible) and in "Movie Massacre" where a picture frame of them is seen in a garbage can. They are a person with a dark complexion and red hair, they wear a green/white striped shirt with blue pants.
