u can do anything with loop… we only know how they act in two extremely specific contexts, outside of that loop could be so many different things…. thats why my modern au loop is Like That (has “everyone else is an npc” brain bc it’s the only way they could cope with not being able to help the people getting hurt around them. it’s just their role in the story, it’s impossible to change the script and it doesn’t matter anyway bc they’re not real! loop and their headmates are the only real people with real thoughts and feelings in the entire world ^^)

#they just pick whatever dialogue options will get them what they need #sometimes being polite is helpful but sometimes the fastest route is entirely ignoring unnecessary NPCs #they don’t wanna make *siffrin* upset by upsetting anyone important to them #but siffrin’s not gonna know if they death glared at a cashier for trying to make small talk with them ^^#or didn’t tip a barista or pilfered an unattended wallet #siffrin can be nice all he wants when he’s fronting it’s loop’s job to keep them alive and happy at any cost #to get their hands dirty so siffrin doesn’t have to #and yeah they resent him for it #but loop can’t be siffrin bc siffrin needs loop #and they love him too #the only person in the entire world who matters #everyone else is a tool an obstacle and/or a toy #😌#isat #isat spoilers #loop #thoughts #thoughts about loop #thoughts about siffrin et al #my non-au loop characterization is similar but not quite as black and white extreme #there’s more exceptions and grey areas
