Jim Hawkins is a good one! Also solar surfing would be the best thing ever okay, so I don't blame him.

Out of everything? He would probably change being trafficked, simply because that's several years of trauma anyone could do without. The rest of the stuff is pretty bad too, but nothing's to that level.

If none of the plot of Recolle came up (no app, no regain memories, etc etc), what would you imagine Dante's future being like?

Oh man. That is a great question! It would really depend on the people around him and what happened there. Dante is super lonely and guarded but also craves validation, so he's got a lot of emotional issues to work through. I think he'd still end up in a relationship with Ari, which would really affect his future a lot, depending on the outcome of that. If she was able to deal with him still being sharp and rude to most everyone else, she might be able to help him relax his walls a little bit and let people in. After that, he'd be tentatively willing to make actual connections with people, and it would probably lead to him making a handful of closer friends. He'd still be lost in the world, not knowing what he wants to do or what value he adds to it, but he'd at least have a network of people around him while he figured that out!

However, on the flip side of that, if Ari for some reason wasn't able to put up with him being rude and prickly to people and purposely driving people away from him (which uh. Would be ENTIRELY UNDERSTANDABLE what the hell Dante), it would lead to him locking down even further! He's already slow to trust because he's afraid of getting hurt, so instead of taking the knowledge that it's due to his own behavior and changing that, he'd just hunker in even more and put up more walls to try to protect himself and keep anybody from getting close. Eventually down the line, trying to live so alone from the rest of the world and to not care about what other people think would lead to a fairly self-destructive spiral, and he'd become this really bitter young adult that nobody wants to go near because of how awful he is. His parents might eventually realize that their son has Deep Issues that need to be worked out and talk him into therapy, but by that point... hoo boy. It would be a very, very long process to even starting to heal that.

(I should also add that it isn't necessarily hinging on Ari specifically... it would just be the first person that he started really care about and trust after his grandmother's death, whether that be friend or significant other or classmate or what. Ari's just in the right situation for him to have latched on.)

Do you have any idea of a character arc you want to play out with Noah? Or are you just seeing where the plot will take you and going off of that?
