Welp, since I’m about to go back to sleep, here’s a new character who’s plays a pivotal role in Joe Caffeine’s story, and their name is Heartly the Magician! ❤️ Their backstory is that they are a magician who does tours all across the Objectivial Plane (or the universe Joe’s world takes place in—), and whilst performing a show in New Bulk City, they happen to stumble across Joe Caffeine’s coffee shop or the ‘Caffeine Quickie!’ and they… well, grow a pretty large amount of fondness for him, even if he doesn’t know of her existence. 💀

But essentially, they’re a flirty, yandere kind of character who in Joe’s story (at least in the first entry, or planned game—) is the primary pop-up shop for Joe to upgrade his abilities in stopping Espresso Bitterfield (a future antagonist I plan on sharing eventually—) from taking over the world, and creating a monopoly around coffee, just in general. But, in game—Joe absolutely finds her obnoxious, and only creates an alliance with her as it’s necessary to save the world. So, when he interacts with her—it’s treated (rightfully-) as a very awkward and or creepy interaction. As she happens to be touring across the plane, Joe only shows up throughout his journey, as a necessity, not cause he likes her—at all. Also, similar to Cherry Winestein, she has a British accent, but different from her she has a very flirty, clingy personality and she has a hard time taking no as an answer!

(Anyways, here’s a fun fact about her—it’s that she has a British accent, and wears a wig—cause she’s incredibly insecure of her actual baldness. 💀 And yes, she does have Vectorman ahh hands.)

Here’s ugh… Heartly the Magician… 🙄 - (Old Sketch!) (New OC drop!)
