>>10170717This Cleo might be a valley girl, but she's been given quite a bit of depth so far.
>Sister is heir to the throne, not her>Always tried to live up to her Sister's popularity, failed>Still has that 'royalty = better than you' way of speaking, but carries zero weight>Goes to MH, decides if she can't be a real queen, she'll at least be queen of the school>Expects to be immediately popular, is not.>Tries being this fashion trendsetter, always wearing new and interesting things, still fails, blames everyone else for 'lacking taste'>Royal attitude isn't working, either. Makes her an outcast>Develops a fascination with humans, since monsters don't love her>Lala is the popular one, and basically friends with everyone>Becomes friends with Cleo, Cleo ends up friends with Deuce by association, all three mutually bond over parental expectation issues>Cleo ends up a part of Lala's entourage, once again in someone elses shadow>Has such a defeatist attitude from living in her sister's shadow that she basically gives up trying to compete with Lala, and goes full support mummy mode for her instead>Frankie ends up friends with Cleo because she doesn't fully understand social cues and norms, so when Cleo goes haughty and full of herself, Frankie just thinks it's normal behavior>Friends with Clawdeen because CD is monster obsessed, and also she's half human, so being friends with her is a massive win in her book. Clawdeen ends up her best friend due to each other's shared cultural interests.>Friends with Lagoona because of Lala, once again. And also because Lagoona is actually very sweet, just like Lala, and is willing to pick up 'strays', too.>Cleo ends up trying to get humans to love her since she lost to Lala by like... 89,947 monsters>Fails spectacularly once again, doesn't know humans dislike being cursed>Gives up, decides to just be grateful for the handful of friends she has nowAll that in just 6 eps and a music video. They're doing a good job.
