Act I - The Forgotten Thief[]
The Truest Thing[]
Jemma's parents died from unknown causes when she was young, resulting in her living alone. During this time, she encountered numerous hardships involving betrayal, abuse and scorn. Despite this, she managed to cling on to some form of happiness from gathering waste until she had yet another betrayal, even worse than before that caused her to believe that the world was too good for her. As a result, she began to loathe happiness, deciding that she would take away others' happiness to fill the void in her life.
This resulted in her becoming a well-known thief in Fontaine as the Phantom Weasel, stealing from the poor and rich alike. However, these thefts resulted in everyone hunting her down, causing her to frequently look behind her to preserve herself. One day, she eventually met Cesar and chose to frame him for her crimes. She got engaged to him in order to do so.
Lorenzo on the other hand, was Cesar's apprentice. He helped Cesar fine-tune his tricks and shows, making him very popular. He secretly hated Cesar because he believed that Cesar took all the credit for his hard work and that Cesar wasn't interested in wealth. When Lyney and Lynette were taken in by Cesar to learn from him, Cesar noted that Lorenzo had become agitated and attempted to speak with him about it.
Jemma, who was engaged to Cesar in an attempt to frame him as the Phantom Weasel, noted Lorenzo's anguish and realized that she could use him to kill Cesar rather than doing so himself. Lorenzo revealed to her that he wanted to be a magician, but could not do so with Cesar around as his influence was much greater and that he had forbade the use of magic to swindle people of Mora, thus they conspired to kill him together.
She plotted with Lorenzo (who appeared to have some feelings towards her) to kill Cesar when he attempted a high-drop trick, sabotaging the box that he was going to use to escape in. They then put false evidence on his belongings, causing people to believe him to be the Phantom Weasel, tarnishing his legacy.
Lyney correctly assumed that Lorenzo had feelings for Jemma but could not express them because of Cesar, and when she tried to brush it off, Lyney knew that she had thrown away her own "truth" in a world full of lies and falsehoods, deducing the fact that Jemma reciprocated Lorenzo's feelings. After Lyney successfully performed Cesar's high-drop trick, Jemma contemplated her choices and confessed to the Gardes the next day, wanting to see Lorenzo one last time.
Quotes[]
- “Apparently, one of the things she said to the Gardes was that her final wish is to "see Lorenzo one last time." *sigh*, there's clearly a web of complicated relationships there... Can't blame me for being curious.”
- — Charlotte's voiceline about Jemma
- Lyney – “Well, I was under the impression that there might have been other factors at play. For instance... Maybe you were in love with Jemma, but she was engaged to Cesar.”
- Lorenzo – “In love with Jemma? D—Don't be ridiculous...”
- — Felis Fuscus: The Magician's Secret
Fanon[]
Not much reaction has happened in the fandom due to the how subtle this ship has been implied in-game. The fact that both Jemma and Lorenzo are both non-playable characters which always get overshadowed by the playable characters from all point of view, plays a role in how obscure this ship is within the fandom despite the canon hints.
Most have a hatred for both characters because they killed the kind-hearted Cesar, but not yet with the ship itself.
