After reading La Guerra, Payasa and Marin I believe I found an archetype that fits all these characters. I feel this archetype fit La Guerra, Payasa and Marin because they all seem to have a loss of innocence and are all breaking the law or committing an offense. For example la Guerra steals and Payasa sniffs aerosol and Marin waits for men to pick her up.
The archetype I found that fits all three of these characters which is "The Fall". La Guerra was an sweet innocent girl but she lost that when her friends went away and she was left with the cholas. She became a chola and stole candies, make-up and lots more to keep her sweetness. Payasa did bad in school, she hated school, so she sniffed drugs to relax. Marin seem to had lost all faith and waited under a street light for one man to pick her up and take her away.
This is why I think these characters fit this archetype they all have a loss of innocence and or committing an offense or breaking the law. And I feel the most noticeable thing about all of them is them losing there innocence.
