The one and only - One!
— One’s catchphrase
One is the first true friend the Owner ever formed a deep connection with. They appear as a memory fragment.
One’s appearance changes depending on the stage of the story, later on they become more faded and distorted.
One is confident, expressive, and charismatic; they enjoy being noticed and being “the important one.”
This is reflected in their catchphrase:
“The one and only — One!”
They often are the one to lead conversations, choose activities and set boundaries, in a way that may feel comforting at first, but later, it feels limiting. However, One does not intend to control others. They simply learned to be independent and self-focused.
By time they become more distant, less emotionally available and more guarded.
They also are really dependent on other’s opinions and social judgement.
Owner describes One as a former friend. They are Owner’s first major emotional attachment.
However, their relationship was unbalanced because of their both natures: One was the one to lead, the Owner was the one to follow.
