"I have to kill you now unfortunately. Can't have this getting out." |
Lily is a major character in Kindergarten, and a significant supporting character in the following games.
Appearance[]
In the original Kindergarten, Lily is seen wearing a striped shirt; light blue against blue, a light yellow skirt, and black shoes. She has black hair which is adorned with a pink flower, and has a downcast expression most of the time. She appears more alert when given information about her brother. In Kindergarten 2, she no longer looks sad. She wears a dark blue hoodie, matching with Billy's brown one. Her hoodie and her old outfit can be collected and worn as a costume. Her appearance in Kindergarten 3 consists of a teal dress with a dark blue band around the waist. She wears a white flower instead of a pink one.
Information[]
In the first game, Lily is very reserved, sensitive, and depressed over the disappearance of her brother. But she is also a sleuth, and fiercely determined to find out what the the Principal did to Billy. She's been trying to find her brother for what can assumed to be longer than just the events of the first game. Lily's main and only suspect in her brother's disappearance is the Principal. She had numerous reasons to suspect him, from the pills to the listening devices, though nobody seemed to care. It wasn't until the Protagonist approached her with everything she needed that she perks up and they manage to rescue Billy.
In Kindergarten 2, Lily is much more lively compared to Monday. Her and Billy are found hiding in the lower, underground section of the school in boxes, only appearing if the Protagonist squeaks the Monstermon plushie at them. They reveal that there were kids that went missing at the new school as well, and that they were determined to rescue them. If the Protagonist has what he needs to help them, they will guide him on what to do in order to enact their plan. After the second principal is killed, she believes they failed because they did not save the missing kids, right before they walked out of the green goo unharmed.
Lily is much more confident in Kindergarten 3. She is able to scope and map out the new school not even a day into it, presumably by herself. She also stands up for herself when under pressure, as shown by her refusal to complete Romeo and Juliet if the Protagonist does not find fake blood for her; which is a huge development from her behavior in the first game. Lily is found in her hideout in the tree, guarded by the goo-mutated bunnies. She is likely able to avoid them due to the white flower in her hair. If the player also has a white flower, it is possible to visit her. At first, she will deny the visitor from entering, but after realizing it's the Protagonist, she will change her mind and become happy to see him. If this is done outside of any missions, she will politely ask him to leave as to not blow her cover. In What Happened on Monday? and Nugget-o and Lily-et, Lily reveals she was studying the correlation between the goo and mutations, in the process of figuring out why adults were abducting children.
Relationships[]
Billy[]
Lily loves her twin brother. She spends the entirety of the first game trying to find Billy, presumably even before the events of the first game as well. She is able to immediately identify Billy in the lab, even though he's physically mutated. She becomes extremely distressed if the Protagonist blends Billy in front of her. Her and Billy spend the following games trying to uncover the dark side of the schools in the area. It's clear they have a deep sense of trust with each other, enough to separate and handle missions on their own.
The Protagonist[]
Lily is on good terms with the Protagonist in almost every run except Cindy's mission and Ms. Applegate's mission. Other than that, she is very grateful for his help in finding Billy. In the following games, namely Kindergarten 3, Lily will continuously state how helpful the Protagonist is and how he always seems to have exactly what she needs. They will also share banter in their short dialogue events;
[Protagonist] "It's a different crazy janitor than usual." / [Lily] "Haha. Yeah."
and
[Protagonist] "Those crazy teenagers." / [Lily] "Yeah. I think I just want to be five forever." / [Protagonist] "Same."
Cindy[]
Her and Cindy are on bad terms. Cindy sees her as a rival and doesn't refrain from cruelly teasing and bullying Lily. When Billy went missing, Cindy believes it overshadowed the disappearance of her own dog, Biscuit, and drove all the attention away from her. This caused her to worsen her torment against Lily, though considering Cindy's disdain to the other girls in the series, it's likely she was already bullying her before Billy went missing. Cindy's harassment reached a tipping point at the end of her mission, causing Lily to kill herself by jumping into the Nugget Cave. Lily is not shown interacting with Cindy in the following games.
The Principal[]
The Principal and Lily have a bad relationship. Lily distrusts and fears the Principal, firmly (and correctly) believing that he was the one that kidnapped Billy. She spent a long time collecting information on him, needing to stop briefly when being forced to hold a device. Lily leaves lunch early to eavesdrop outside of his office. Lily also spends all of recess staring at the Principal's statue, muttering "I know he did it. I don't know why, but I know he did." The Principal is aware of Lily's sleuthing, and claims she's been getting too close to the truth for too long. When catching her eavesdropping, he will take her into his office and shoot her, probably killing her. Despite Lily's clear distaste to him, she still calls him "Mr. Principal", though this is likely out of fear than respect.
Nugget[]
"Oh! I didn’t know he was capable of… having complex emotions. It’s still a sweet gesture. I wish i could just read it." |
Lily becomes aware of Nugget's romantic feelings for her during his mission. She claims she "didn't know Nugget was capable of feeling complex emotions." Lily finds Nugget simple-minded and untrustworthy in the first game, as Nugget withheld the full extent of his knowledge about Billy's disappearance. She also becomes very embarrassed and mortified after Nugget's love letter was read aloud to the class.
In Kindergarten 2, Lily does not directly interact with Nugget much. However, Nugget was aware of her hidden location, and also had access to the Monstermon plushie that was their secret signal. This implies that Billy and Lily trusted Nugget to the point of letting him in on their plan. She is extremely grateful to him helping them defeat the second principal, so much so that she kissed him on the cheek in thanks.
In Kindergarten 3, she had apparently arranged for him to meet with her before school started, which he will forget to do if not snapped out of his goo trance. If he does meet with her, he makes his feelings abundantly clear; he repeatedly claims he will build a Nugget Cave "OF LOVE" for her, and insists her to call it that, too. Lily will call Nugget unreliable and still does not trust him to get things done. He also pressures Lily to be in Romeo and Juliet with him, much to her dismay. Despite all of this, Lily still values Nugget closely as a friend and will be very upset if he dies during the show. Upon finding him alive, Lily will be not only relieved but elated. They will find Kevin and rescue him together, alongside Davey and the Protagonist.
Jerome[]
Jerome's dad, the Principal, was the man who kidnapped her brother. When the Protagonist tells Lily that Jerome is after her, she says she "should've expected this". She isn't worried about her own safety, instead insisting she needs to tell Jerome the truth about his father, and that she wants to make things right with him. When he sees her, he immediately attempts to kill her and will stubbornly not listen to her reasoning. It is only when the Protagonist defends Lily and backs her up that he relents and comes to terms with the fact that his dad was a bad person. Lily earnestly sympathizes with him, even though he was trying to kill her moments prior. This goes to show that Lily holds no ill will towards Jerome, despite his father's actions.
