Paddle and Ball

Paddle and Ball are two conjoined students that are seen in the Virtually Gifted cartoon series, and serve the roles of being the tetartagonist and pentagonist of the series (Paddle can be seen as the tetartagonist and Ball can be seen as the pentagonist). They compete together on Hmm Maple Syrup and act as the two joint team captains of said team, but their different opinions might clash in the way of success. Ball is voiced by, while Paddle is voiced by coolcidprod.

Appearance
Paddle is a wooden paddle with a head part that's mostly blue with a beige semicircle that extends to the bottom beige handle. In the middle of Paddle's face is a grey string that Ball dangles from.

Ball, unsurprisingly, takes the form of a small, red rubber ball that's affixed to the grey string found on Paddle's face. Ball's size sometimes fluctuates.

Paddle has arms and legs that come out of the handle part of his body, and Ball is limbless with a string acting as her tether to Paddle.

Personality
Despite being conjoined students and sometimes being considered one entity, Paddle and Ball think and act pretty differently, and are thus considered widely different and unique characters.

Paddle is the more sensible and reasonable person of the two beings, and shows resistance to harming anyone if it doesn’t serve a real purpose to the classroom environment. Paddle is also considered somewhat of a nerd, and shows a sensitive and caring side for other contestants. This is strange considering this positive quality is not common in contestants. However, Paddle can also be seen as conceited and selfish towards others on occasion, and as a person who avoids taking responsibility for some of his actions. He can also be lazy and uninterested in certain situations.

Ball is much different from her brother, and is an extremely disturbed individual. She is a psychopathic person who has a creepy voice and often talks about killing the hosts and other contestants in graphic detail, to the point of even suggesting hurting others for ways on how to beat contests. Ball even shows signs of psychosis and schizophrenia. Ball often spouts complete non sequiturs and absolute nonsense whenever she isn't talking about death. Ball is also vindictive and likes flying into people in the attempt to hurt them, but in her small and innocent looking form, she cannot do much without her brother. She's depicted as mentally unstable and a problematic person who enjoys talking about the underworld and even demons. This makes her an insane lady, and probably the most insane person outside of VR Headset.

Paddle dreams of being separated from Ball because she constantly annoys him with her murderous tendencies and overall bombastic personality. This is because Paddle is considered one of the straightmen in the Virtually Gifted world, and he has to put up with Ball's craziness and desire for murder and death. Ball seems somewhat unaware of Paddle's disappointment in her strange nature. However, Paddle does want the best for her and cares about her deep down, he just has a problem showing it.

Overall, it seems like Paddle and Ball are two siblings who fight with each other because of their widely different views of the world around them, and this causes problems during their wacky and insane life attending Mcfinny Public School.

Abilities

 * Ball Whack: Paddle can use Ball as a makeshift weapon and bounce her onto opponents to slightly hurt them. Paddle dubs this move "the ball whack"
 * Sportsmanship: Paddle is shown to be good at different sports, being based on sports equipment. Ball also has the know how on how various sports work, but her lack of limbs presents problems.
 * Fitting In Small Spaces: Ball can fit in small spaces given her tiny size.

Coverage

Trivia

 * Paddle and Ball originally came from a cancelled object show series of Daax's, called THOAB. Their characterization is largely the same from it, but made into something largely considered to be more deep and compelling to watch. Being conjoined and considered two characters in counting, they are noted as being two of nine characters with this interesting origin.
 * Hexagon, Copyright, Coffee Cup, Baggy, Hexagon, Prize Box, and Origami are the other eight characters from this scrapped concept.
 * Paddle and Ball are officially stated to be twins. Paddle is older than Ball by 2 minutes and was constructed first.
 * Paddle and Ball are the only sports equipment objects that are seen taking VR's course in Virtually Gifted.
 * Ball is the smallest contestant,
 * Ball is the first character alphabetically.
 * Ball's violent tendencies will be explained later on in the narrative of Virtually Gifted.
 * Paddle and Ball probably have the most nicknames out of any characters competing in the series.
 * Ball is considered somewhat of a Satanist, due to her obsession with hell. This fact confirms that some objects have a grasp on religion.
 * Ball has a lower social standing than her brother Paddle, but Paddle isn't that well liked either, possibly because of his affiliation with Ball, but there is also his nerdish nature that rubs people the wrong way.
 * Ball has a tendency to hit on people in the series, namely VR Headset. This further showcases her insanity and instability. This is even made more jarring at times where she just fangirls over a different person and moves on pretty quickly.
 * Paddle is stated to be aromantic as a person, while Ball is panromantic. This makes Ball one of the three pan characters in Virtually Gifted: The Celebration and Viewer are the other two pan folk.
 * Paddle has a GPA of 3.4, while Ball has a GPA of 2.8.
 * Paddle's favourite number is 5, while Ball's is 666.
 * Ball is implied to be a demon.
 * Ball can be placed on Paddle's nose region to look like a "clown nose". He does this in a later episode.
