Allow Me To Trample All Over Your Hope And Optimism With My Take:

You can’t see this but you have the cold calculated demeanor of someone not to fuck with

@neutronbutt in episode 21, he finds miner’s clothes in the cabin and changed out of his old clothes. (He put on ‘as many layers as would fit’, so he probably looked like the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man) Even before that though, if anything remained of the suit, it was absolutely fucked. I took notes on a relisten, and it is remarkable that Arthur is still physically intact. If you want injuries to incorporate into fanfic, I got you

Do you ever think about how unsettling Arthur must look at this point? He’s this pale, emaciated, grimy(he splashed around in dirty bath water *once* in 5 months) guy in ill fitting clothes who looks like he took a spin in a rock tumbler. One of his hands looks diseased and the tip of the pinky is just blackened bone. Worst of all, there’s something wrong with his eyes but you can’t put your finger on what.

An old photo forgotten (or left) in some drawer...

Fuck him up, bestie. Tell him how it is.

“…who?”

GOT ‘IM. ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED.

Old favorite character divorced, new favorite character acquired.

Maybe interesting historical context: Malevolent takes place during the Great Depression and also a time in The Golden Age of American Animation in which rubber hose animation was prevalent.

No little german boy, don’t open that eldritch tome!

“Mein Gott, es gibt ein schmexy Dämon in mein Kopf!”

Malevolent fans making up elaborate theories about the show vs Harlan who trows together episodes by pure vibe

Can Arthur or John speak Middle English?
