With this, she can be both comforting and a needed voice of reason, as well as being a rational handler of situations, while Hugo and Victor tend to approach things with more comedic or over-the-top sensibilities. With her age comes wisdom, which she uses to regularly advise and guide Quasimodo through life. Laverne (voiced by Mary Wickes in the original, Jane Withers in the sequel, and Patricia Lentz in Kingdom Hearts 3D) is the most competent of the gargoyles and acts as a wise mother figure towards Quasimodo. This is given closure in the sequel, where Djali apparently returns Hugo's affections, and a relationship is implied to have blossomed. Hugo has a strange fascination with Esmeralda's goat, Djali-harboring romantic feelings for the latter and evidently finding him to be highly attractive. He is also a lover of all things entertainment, romance, and action, especially when it comes to the Festival of Fools. He also tends to be the most optimistic, as he was relatively calm during Frollo's massacre upon Paris in his search for Esmeralda, believing the gypsy to be too intelligent to fall into the hands of Frollo's tyranny. Like Laverne and Victor, he is an avid supporter of Quasimodo and is often the first to suggest disobeying Frollo's orders if it means granting Quasimodo some form of happiness, showing a side of mischief and recklessness. Hugo always has his mouth open when he is in his nonliving statue form which encourages birds to nest in his mouth which he always spits out. Hugo (voiced by Jason Alexander) is the most comical and flamboyant of the three gargoyles. Though he makes attempts to remain level-head, anxiety can sometimes get the better of him, resulting in panicked outbursts or sobbing fits. Compared to his companions, Victor can be seen as a coward and is the most innocent of the trio, going as far as to apologize to Frollo's soldier, after forcefully attacking them out of defense during the climax of the film. Victor (voiced by Charles Kimbrough) acts as a Renaissance man, speaking in a deep British tone and often the voice of reason, or at least, the voice of caution. They are conscious during this time, but are strict about maintaining the appearance of normality to most. When not interacting with Quasimodo, they take the appearance of lifeless, ordinary statues (they refer to this as their "sleeping" states). The anthropomorphic gargoyles are part of Notre Dame's architecture. 6.5.1 The Hunchback of Notre Dame (musical).6.5 Disney Parks and other live appearances.3.1 Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
