I just want to exist.

The Pink Heart was a small pink heart originating from the Kappa universe; having been created by Abigail Lightengarde out of spite and hatred for Monsterkind. At some point during her existence in Kappa, she was taken from the universe by Webdings Courier and made the central core of the Distortion, before being defeated during Gamma Part 1 and reappearing during Omega's final confrontation with the Cluster as it's core.

## Profile

### Appearance

As the Pink Heart, she simply took the form of a Fear-traited Heart shaped Aura.

As Pixfli in his first form, she took the form of a short humanoid figure with horns and crystal-like wings, yellow eyes and wearing a pink cloak that fades to a bright neon pink and then black, The cloak also has white buttons and white stitching on the front. It is cut into segments. She also wears black shoes and pants in this form.

As Bethany, she appeared extremely similar to Sophia Lightengarde, instead with a pink palette and torn clothing, Her hair is also notably shorter, fading to a bright pink, and her eye sclera is black. She, like Viola, also has a perpetually reforming black hole in her chest.

As Madison, she had black, puffy hair that faded to a very subtle pink with two bright pink barrettes in her hair, pale skin, pink eyes, and she wore dark blue, very intricately made armor with pale red accents; stylized to look similar to Eternatus.

### Personality

The Pink Heart's personality greatly shifted across the course of Reality Check, at first being a nameless, faceless being bent on the consumption of the entire Greek Chain, before being revealed to be not more than a confused, lost girl wanting nothing more than to just exist- even if it meant having to consume the entire multiverse to accomplish that. She truly did feel bad whenever confronted with fighting the Heroes- having genuinely enjoyed her brief time as Madison and Pixfli.

She, too, wondered if she was true evil, pondering if her existence alone made her evil- eventually deciding that just wanting to exist isn't an inherently evil thing. At some point during Reality Check, likely during it's final chapters, she had realized there was not going to be a happy ending- either she would wipe out the Heroes and condemn reality to nonexistence, or she would die a tragic, preventable death.

After being absorbed by Melio and becoming part of Vacuum Decay, she rarely fronts- feeling as though the Heroes hate her and fear what she, Melio and Viola are capable of.

## History

### Kappa

Prior (or, during if you want to be technically accurate) to the events of Reality Check, the Heroes entered Kappa and took witness to the initial conflict between Humans and Monsters, eventually escalating to Abigail Lightengarde entering a fight with her brother, Leon Lightengarde, losing, and then demanding for a rematch- of which he declined, Later the same night, Sophia Lightengarde was murdered by Abigail and her Aura used as the basis for the Bête Noire spell- leading to the creation of the Pink Heart, although in a very chronologically strange way.

It is unknown at what timeframe Courier obtained the Pink Heart- although it can be inferred it was likely very shortly after the Heroes departed from Kappa and Abigail perished from her injuries.

### During Reality Check

Across Reality Check, she was (at first) portrayed as the main antagonist of the plotline, being a faceless, nameless being called The Distortion, constantly pursuing the Heroes and constantly consuming the entire Chain. up until the Pink Heart gained a form of sentience and started rapidly attempting to fight for it's right to exist in the universe, It, however, pondered the meaning and morality of those actions, constantly fighting with herself in both a literal and metaphorical sense when Pixfli aided the heroes in purging the distortion from Upsilon and when Madison willingly chose to disappear alongside the rest of the distortion in Sigma.

During Chapter 20: Error Name Not Found, she was defeated after a long battle with the Heroes- although she was not content to disappear completely, and Courier had one final gambit in the case the Cursed Wave failed.

Returning one last time at the end of the storyline, in Chapter 25: No Signal, as the Cluster, the combined form of multiple real Drez'eans and fake imitation Aura- with her at the core of it all holding it together. After yet another long battle, the Pink Heart was finally defeated, and she too had finally come to accept that for the sake of these worlds and the people within those worlds- it is a tragic sacrifice, but it is better if she were to disappear- although this would not happen.

As foretold, in a final bid to save Serenity from a surprise attack from Courier, Melio absorbed the Pink Heart to gain enough energy to save her, leading to the creation of Vacuum Decay.

## Powers and Capabilities

### Fear Manipulation and Control

She has the capacity to manifest fears, control people's fear, and control other forms of the emotion.

### 'Glitching Powers' / Distortion Control

She can manipulate the fabric of reality by glitching, distorting and manipulating the code of the world itself.

### Shapeshifting

As seen across Reality Check, the Pink Heart can shapeshift into numerous forms- having taken the form of Madison, Pixfli and Bethany.

## Trivia

* Pixfli's second form has a reference to Morganna Mode Gone in the design- the main eye having been specifically modeled after one of hers, As to why Pixfli has this is unknown, but it's likely due to Pixfli having obtained some of the data from the Cursed Wave somehow.
* Madison's design was drawn in a rush, hence the art style difference- the reason as to why is because RC's Sigma plotline was entirely improvised, barring the confrontation with Eternatus.
* Bethany is named such to distinguish her from canon Betty, although it does sadly end up meaning the clever name is lost.
