Nico’s best friend, “autism sister” to the kid later known as Vexus, and general chill teen trying not to freak out about college or life or her friends’ crises or whatever.
info
- Towers over most people, which is awkward, but tries to play nice with everyone. Evidently had some issues that weren’t being addressed.
- Always let her sibling win at video games; meanwhile, actually tried to beat Nico sometimes, but rarely succeeded. Often heard in the background of Nico’s vines saying some variation of “dude, don’t do it” (while filming and laughing).
- Voted MVP of the local robotics club, subsequently dubbed by Nico “the nerdiest nerd of all the nerds” (playfully derogatory).
- Met Ava in 2012. Went missing the same year; eventually presumed dead by suicide.
design notes
- main shape: Vaguely crescent; generally super lanky.
- color association(s): Neon yellow-green.
- The side-shave haircut was getting a “test run” in 2012.
- Probably could’ve kept growing.
- Wore an hourglass necklace.

Linda Cardellini as Wendy Corduroy (Gravity Falls) (don’t read into the video choice, it just had better audio than other compilations)
trivia
- Name is derived from Taraxacum officinale and an anagram of “-cenia” (from Sarracenia flava).
- *If she has a plant association, it’s a pitcher plant, not a dandelion.
