PAY NO ATTENTION TO THIS THREAD. WAY TOO MANY ERRORS ON MY PART WERE SPOTTED.

This is part of my quest to understand the protagonist of Cave Story better.

I have no clue what is going on between these characters and our badass mime protagonist. but I'm going to take a whack at it anyway.

Here are my thoughts on character age. I gained this from looking at the sprites and Shinonoko's* art.
-----------------------------------------------
Quote- 14-16 in appearance
Curly- 14-16 in appearance
Misery- 17-18
Sue- 12-13
Kazuma- 19- early 20's
Momorin- late 20's - early 30's
Chaco- 16-17


I can see Quote and Curly being a thing. But then again they are similar units so would that make them brother and sister? Then again they are different builds as indicated by their HP and such. I see this as most plausible considering how simple it is compared to the others. Plus, we have the Iron Bond for evidence.

Quote and Sue could be possible as well. I've always seen Sue as kind of tsundere.

Quote and Momorin... well... no. That would be shotacon. We as a fandom have not crossed that thin line yet. Hopefully.

Quote and Kazuma... NO. I have no problem with gay/lesbian sexuality, as I am a firm believer of not standing in the way of someone's love. But just... no. Royal Guard 1 and 2 from UNDERTALE *light cringe*? That's canon. But this? No.

Quote and Chaco... I guess? It can be justified with the Chaco's Lipstick event. Eh, it's up for debate.

Quote and Misery? Well... it could work. Considering that she send Balrog to save Quote and Curly after Ballos was smote. That sure as hell isn't enough to convince me but I guess someone could flip the script around on that one and provide more evidence.

So what do you guys think?

Going for the obvious Curly option?
Or maybe Misery?
Hell, even Momorin.
If you're feeling sick maybe Kazuma?

If you haven't already, go up to that sexy poll and let me know what you think!

Oh boy, it's this thread again.

You also sound rather homophobic given the negative bias towards Kazuma.

This is the only canon ship in Cave Story.

Sue- 12-13
Momorin- late 20's - early 30's

So Momorin had sue when she was 15-20? A teen pregnancy? I mean its not impossible, but...

Personally I'd say Momorin looks mid 30's to early 40's.

EDIT: And the age range you gave for Kazuma would mean Momorin had him when she was like 5 to 13. Seems kind of like a stretch.

Why does this game need shipping of any sort? The characters are not exactly deep or emotional and there's no romantic subplot AT ALL. Unless you count Kazuma and Quote, which I (unfortunately) don't. Not only that, but you're judging age from pixel graphics. Good luck with that.

Curly is the obvious choice for Quote, since they're actually sort of the same species. I mean a human and a robot? A Mimiga and a robot? A robot and a robot makes sense unlike those other shipments. And let's not forget the Iron Bond. Nonetheless, imagination is imagination, and love is love.

Does anyone even pay attention to Pixel's credit art illustrations these days?

Quote and Curly look like children about 9-12 years of age. Probably more like 10 or 11. I've never understood why some people think they're built to resemble teenagers or young adults.

We don't really know the exact lifespan of a Mimiga, so we can't say for sure how old Chaco is.
And like others have said, Momorin is probably in her 40s.

Woah.

I've made so many errors I might as well abandon this thread.

I'll need to make a redux later.

Make sure to include Ma Pignon as an option. Then you'll have mush-room for everything else.

This is what will lead to Third Impact.
