Suddenly smacked in the face by the implication of Romeo's message where he says "I remember you, so there's no reason for us to fight. I suppose."
I always thought the wording was weird, but didn't think too much on it... Until recently after we discussed some datamined stuff in the Carmeo/Promeo server. There's a scrapped line (where P was supposed to speak) that says "I may not remember, but I'm still your son" during the NP fight, and while the scrapped lines are their own can of worms, let's focus on the memory parts.
I had always thought that once a puppet woke up, they would just get their memories back. But the fact seems to be this: There are select memories that come back to give bits and pieces of their past that "wake" them up-- cause them to change, as we see with P and the necklace; As we see from the spliced memories at the Black Seaside. However, it might not be all one's memories that come back. Whether those spaces stay blank or come back over time, who knows.
What I'm trying to get at here is...
Romeo's memories might only consist of Carlo at the time of waking. Carlo was what woke Romeo-- "I remember you"-- He had the necklace, he knew from who it was; He recognized the face P was modeled after. "So there's no reason for us to fight, I suppose"-- there's a lack of confidence in the wording here. Friends aren't supposed to fight, right? That's what his memory tells him, at least.
And the only memories P tends to get in regards to his past? Those in relation to Romeo, his aspirations, and of his own death. Seemingly, these are the things most important to him.
They were the most important people to each other; They remembered each other, just one too late than the other.

Brick’s Path book 1 is finished! So what comes next?
Well… theoretically book 2. I like books 2 and 3 a lot more than 1, so I really want to get through them. But, there’s a lot of prep work I want to get done first! Specifically, I’m looking to
Do some cat anatomy studies
Redesign Brick, Bone, and Scourge and create new reference sheets for them
Design new characters
Create a map of the comic locations
Do some background studies and develop a consistent style
Make some background concept art
Finish the story script
Storyboard each page
Create a template for my pages
I’m also considering moving the comic to my DeviantArt instead of Tumblr.
All this prep work might take a while - maybe a couple months to a year? I’m sorry for the delay but I really want to work on developing my skills and making this look good! I’ll plan to post concept art and studies as I create them though. I’ll also update this list and cross things off as they get done.
