HI can you tell me about zeke and luna i want to know about them
OKAY OKAY IM GONNA ANSWER THIS AND THEN GO TO BED BC I LOVE ZEKE AND LUNA . !!!
They’re part of a mini-story called Imitation of Life, which takes place in an alternate version of rackethill (where outcast chaos takes place; but they’re seperate stories that dont take place in the same timeline, so they don’t have much overlap). it’s a comedy/horror slice of life story that operates on loose sitcom rules (certain things “reset” every day).
zeke and luna are parasites who are (very badly) attempting to blend in with human society by living in *dead* human hosts. they both have extremely questionable morals and in general are very weird, but they’ve opened up to humans and enjoy spending their time exploring and learning about this strange place they’re stuck living in. they get into extremely wacky hijinks when they have to act “normal” because, well… neither of them are very normal.
zeke seems pretty level-headed on the outside; he’s logical and cautious, a bit nervous about being found out, and is very monotone and no-nonsense. he’s very studious and book smart, constantly reading to learn about human history and society. however, he has a sociopathic streak and finds humans to be disposable, and will happily kill and infect humans in the name of “studying them”. he’s eerily confident when he’s killing, he likes feeling in control and more powerful over the humans he’s been forced to live amongst. after all, he’s a parasite literally stuck in a host he would rather not be in— so he takes it out on others to feel something. he has very low empathy in general, but is slowly working his way towards being kinder and less cruel to people. he’s scared of and uninterested in humans, so he tries avoiding going out as much as possible— he doesn’t know what would happen if he was found out and he doesn’t want to know anytime soon. as a result, he’s very sheltered. however, luna often brings him out of his comfort zone, which has forced him to put up with (and eventually grow to appreciate) humans and earth as a whole. he’s bad with managing his emotions and can come across as very cold and unfeeling, when in reality he just struggles to express them. he’s a lot more like humans than he’d like to admit, which is why he’s been cooling it on the murder thing— but he’d never, ever admit it out loud.
luna seems like a total freak on the outside— because they are. they’re crude, gross and rowdy, they love to spread mischief, and in general they have no sense of boundaries. they’re like if you gave the mean older brother sitcom trope alien parasite abilities. luna hates pretending to be human, and loves pushing their limits, such as eating things they should not and getting into comically dangerous situations. they also very happily commit murder, finding the thrill of the kill to be very fun (arguably they like it more than actually killing people). they’ll take any chance they can get to weird people out. they feel like humans only see them as an evil freak due to their nature as a parasite, so they’ve decided to live up to this reputation. however, they don’t always like it, and they long for friends who don’t judge them for being a parasite. they’re very social and love to explore and try new things, so they bring zeke along on wacky escapades to new places or experiences. they like meeting new people, but due to their crass nature and fear of getting found out they tend to push people away not long after befriending them. but in general they have much more empathy than zeke does and they’re more open about their love for earth. they also are an extremely skilled electric guitar player and singer, and has found their calling performing music in their free time when they’re not out exploring or watching memes on their phone.
zeke and luna are (and always have been) a package deal; there is never, ever one without the other. they are in a very passionate and surprisingly tender romantic relationship, and they absolutely adore each other. opposites really do attract, love wins!!! they’re both very protective over each other and will get sad if they are seperated for more than a minute or two, so they do EVERYTHING together. they don’t have many other friends, either, aside from their boss (they work as part time librarians), fellow parasite devon, and luna’s host’s brother. but even then, those are more like… acquaintences to them. zeke and luna feel like its them against the world, and they’re not going down without the other with them. guhgghghh i love them so much they kiss kiss fall in love in my head on the daily. they’re very sweet.
they’re both horrible people but they’re still struggling with their identities, trying to navigate an unknown world, and honestly just trying to survive. they’re more scared of humans than you’d think, despite how they brag that they’re “better”. and most of all they love each other and love learning. they’re kind of evil, but kind of not. the plot is mostly about them becoming better people the more solid of a grip they get on who they want to be. also the people they kill dont stay dead because of sitcom rules. i love them so much. todays their birthday. i have cried over them before and will probably do it again . goodnight tristate area
