Lake (formerly known as Mirror Tulip, or M.T for short) is a major character of Infinity Train, appearing as a supporting character of Book One - The Perennial Child, and the main protagonist of Book Two - Cracked Reflection. She is the mirror version of Tulip Olsen.
She is voiced by Ashley Johnson, who also voices her prime Tulip Olsen and also voices Ellie in The Last of Us and its sequel, Terra in Teen Titans (2003) and Teen Titans Go!, Jinmay from Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!, Gwen Tennyson in Ben 10: Alien Force, Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, Ben 10: Omniverse, Renet Tilley in TMNT 2012, Gretchen in Recess, Petra in Minecraft: Story Mode.
Appearance[]
In the Mirror world, she looks the same as Tulip, While in the Prime World, she is metallic. Unlike Tulip, she doesn't need glasses to see properly, and her hair was longer but is cut shorter after a narrow escape from the mirror agents who threatened to kill her. She also has a portion of Tulip's Swiss-army knife on her arm, allowing her to move freely in the prime world by having the mirror reflect on itself.
In Book Two, Lake makes further changes to her appearance. Upon removing her mirror clothing, She wears a bracelet that she created from a pen chain from the Pencil Bank Car that she spray-painted black. She wears jeans and a black shirt with the sleeves ripped off. She wears brown boots, one of which she hides Tulip's Swiss-army knife inside. She drilled holes into both of her ears and by using one of the train cars wheels, shaved all her hair off and in the process, a small part of her eyebrow.
Personality[]
Lake tries to distinguish herself as much as possible from her Prime World counterpart. She's at first bitter about having to spend her life reflecting everything Tulip does, and has a dislike of coding to completely contrast Tulip's love of it. She's also much more open about needing help than Tulip is, a trait which she calls out Tulip on. She also finds the Pencil Bank Car incredibly interesting, in contrast to Tulip finding it boring.
It shown in Book Two that Lake maintains a strong belief that everyone should be free to make their own choices. This displayed when Lake becomes angry after Jesse tries to come up with a name for Alan Dracula, without its consent.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Metallic Body: Like all Mirror People, Lake is near indestructible. She can survive falls and heavy strikes that would be considered fatal to an average human. This also gives her super strength, as she is able to chop and break through thick tree branches with her bare hands and crushed Jesse's phone without much effort.
- Unnatural Weight: Lake is shown to be extremely heavy, the best example being one of the games she and Jesse play at the carnival in the Lucky Cat Car to reach a combined score of 1000 points. They end up in a weight game where the heaviest contender is the winner. Jesse is confident they'll win with Lake, she gives it a try and the two win, damaging the machine in the process.
- Basic Combat Skills: Despite having no formal training, Lake is somewhat proficient at hand-to-hand combat, a requirement due to her status as a fugitive. This is first seen when she defeats a car full of anthropomorphic rabbits before changing her appearance, then later overpowers two members of The Apex who had been restraining her.
Weaknesses[]
- Mirror Dependency: Like all Mirror People, Lake cannot move freely in the Prime World without a reflective surface. Fortunately, Tulip solves this problem by giving Lake her Swiss-army knife.
- Anti-Reflection Weaponry: The sander-like tonfas used by Mace and Sieve can potentially kill her by grinding her down into a pile of nothing. This is first seen when Agent Mace cuts off a large portion of Lake's hair while attempting to kill her.

Trivia[]
- Her hair was cut short when she switched to the "prime world", it being cut off by one of the Mirror Police when switching.
- The rest of her hair was cut by her at the beginning of The Black Market Car.
- Her hair can grow back as confirmed by Maddie during an AMA.
- Although it’s not known if Lake needs to eat, she often drools while asleep. She can also shed tears, implying that she likely requires water for hydration. However, it is not known how regularly she needs to drink. During her days on the run from the flecs, Lake most likely only drank water on rare occasions, as it is reflective and capable of being used by the Mirror Police to enter and catch her. When Lake did drink, she would have done so out of a dark non-reflective source or receptacle with very little light.
- Seven months after Tulip leaves the train, she walks past a mirror in her home whilst leaving with her father and does not have a reflection.
- Lake having a resemblance to Tulip and having a metallic complexion is similar to Metal Mario from the Super Mario franchise.
- as well as T-1000, T-1001 aka Catherine Weaver, T-X aka Terminatrix from the Terminator franchise.
