Friendly Thursday Challenger: Som

Forget tomorrow Only now is important Do not ask me more

Som is a diligent worker, and you would generally not find much to complain about. She has such a way with customers, acting in the moment with them and seeming to care deeply about their current needs. She has an eccentric way of speaking, she really does like a haiku! But you find yourself quite charmed by it, and make a visit simply to hear her poetry. When does a poem by Som not brighten your day?

You're not sure about her history, she doesn't seem to bring it up now that you think about it. You've maybe asked about her plans for the future, but she always brings the subject back to you! Did her eyes all flash red when you asked? You're not sure you remember correctly. Maybe you should try again? I'm sure she isn't going to get angry and be unlocked as a new challenger. Not unless you do something to REALLY set her off.

Yes, I was thinking a game too...score over 575..."try again" could be keep trying until you reach 575. "You're not sure you remember correctly"... could be a memory game.

Five seven five that does ring a bell.... Was that a shop name? Or a game?

I don't know if this helps one way or another, but when you're on her shop page, and look at the tab name, it says 'five seven five'. Do those numbers ring a bell to anyone?

Let me guess, she is afraid of the future and traumatized by the past. To unlock her would have to involve something involving either, the question is, what and how.

- funnily enough, this did come up when we were talking about her as a challenger. We feel that she is actually nonbinary, but is fine with feminine pronouns. Sometimes she will have masculine days. It's not a big enough part of what this particular post is about, though, to go into it. Or rather, she's not open about things that aren't happening today. But your comment made us smile!

SPOILER (click to toggle) Something to do with the future... to put her on the spot. She might be able to see the future and doesn't feel comfortable talking about it because she knows every little thread and is unnerved by the outcome perhaps. So if that IS the case how can one get her to lash out... hmmm?

Thoughts So, she doesn't want to talk about the future, and doesn't want to talk about herself. I personally think she might be a zombie, honestly. Obviously a lot of fire- so attempts to extinguish her candles? Bringing up future plans, or death? (Visiting her shop with a Dead Person minion in your inventory doesn't work.)

Glad to know Som's gender. I remember when her shop first opened, a lot of us were debating whether she was a girl or a boy or neither.
