Theories - Blog Posts

I'm here writing this because I’m hyping over TeruKane

After chapter 79, I have some theories popped up in my mind and now I’m here blabbing about my dear OTP. Don’t take these theories so serious ok? J4F cuz im so hyped!!!

First of all, you guys know that TeruAo has become an actual ship. Don’t get too worked up over that, when I read the manga I was shock and the fact that Teru unreasonably fall in love with Aoi upsets me, too. Anyhow, Aida Iro must have something hidden behind this (please do ;-;)

I had a glimpse of this theory that I found it quite suitable to describe how Teru acted in this chapter. Teru is said to not leave people behind as long as there is still a chance to save them, right?

When Aoi and Akane crossed to the boundary, and because of this panel we can assume that Teru was suprised that Aoi was there. That Teru didn't expect to lose an innocent life to the other world.

From there onward, he knew that he couldn't save her. Later on he might feel guilty of it because he somehow let go of a human life and he saw that as a sin. He thought of Aoi coming to the boundary as his responsibility and she accidentally slipped into the boundary is his fault. Maybe that is just the humanity of a young exorcist like him and he desires to save her to pay for his mistake.

Moving on to our chapter 79 where Aida Iro confirms the TeruAo ship in a most shocking way possible. Teru mentioned something like he needs to save Aoi in order to fullfill his dream.

What is his dream though? What is the desire makes him wanting to get Aoi back so bad apart from the guilty feeling? Can you see his little blush behind his hand 👀

Look closer 👀

TeruKane shippers, get ready, you won't believe what I had in mind of this panel, neither do I-

Well, I would say that Teru doesn't seem like he is actually have a crush on Aoi. Isn't that quite contradictory when assuming Teru liking Akane while he looks pretty obsessive with bringing Aoi back? Why not? And these are the two evidences:

First of all, what if he meant to say "Akane-san" indicating Aoi but accidentally calling Akane by his own name? Imagine calling your crush by their name, it is obvious that Teru would be flustered in front of Akane isn't it?

Second of all, the reason why he intentionally saying "Akane-san" and he wants her back is because he wants to see how happy Akane would be. It is like Teru is having a one-sided love and he knew that if he likes Akane, he can just look at him from far away. The best he could do right then to make Akane happy is by bringing Aoi back 😢

It's like Teru saying "I just want Akane-san back" and he kept the "...for you" silence

In conclusion, the two things make Teru desires to save Aoi is he felt guilty and he wants the best for his beloved and maybe his little bro or Yashiro. Teru is quite unpredictable though ^^

That's it for the theories, thank you for reading thou

P/s: Please don't bash Aoi just because Aida Iro wants the ship to be like that ;; It's not her fault and Aoi is a precious girl after all. If Teru is crushing on her for real, may be Aida Iro's writing is not very favorable for us shippers 😢

5am rambling about Sky cause my sleep schedule is severely wack - includes personal headcannons about lore lmao- everything below the cut so you don’t get blasted with a billion words ✨

Heads up: this is not a fun silly Headcannon. It is

s a d.

You’ve been warned. There is a cute little doodle at the very bottom of this to make it up to anybody who reads this tho

This mainly pertains to moth players and Eden, I came up with this after watching a few folk’s own lore videos on their sky kid’s backstories and whatnot- imagine

Yknow all the moths you’ve adopted, guided through the world and befriended in the process? Once they enter Eden, that has the potential to determine their entire fate.

The moth’s who enter Eden, with or without your help, have to make it through. One way or another. Or, they don’t. They quit halfway through because they’re too afraid, or they don’t understand what they’re meant to do. Some manage to make it through Eden, but then think that’s the end of the game. No more, no seasons, no travelling spirits, no upcoming events, nothing.

I imagine the moths who never fully make it through Eden simply just.. die, in a sense. Their light, their soul, whatever you may call it, was not strong enough to withstand the storm and they simply perish and become one of the many statues trapped there, until you eventually come for your next run and free them.

Alternatively, the ones who make it out but quit shortly after - they were corrupted in some form by Eden - namely, the same power that may or may not have corrupted Resh - the Eden elder and/or king. I have my own theories about Resh too- but that’s for another time. They don’t continue, so their light/wings don’t grow stronger. Almost like an infection, they don’t have the strength to fight off the ‘virus’ (the corruption) as time passes, they remain stagnant and the corruption chips away at them until they ‘die’.

The sky kids who’ve fallen to corruption eventually return to either the wasteland or eden. Those who find themselves in the wasteland deteriorate slowly over time, transforming into crabs or simply dying, their bodies becoming seeds for dark plants to take root. Those who end up back in Eden aren’t so fortunate to have such a peaceful end. And I’m using the term peaceful very, very lightly.

Those who returned to Eden are back in the direct line of contamination from, as stated previously, the same power that corrupted Resh - their bodies rapidly deteriorate and give out on them, their remaining light unable to stay strong enough to stave off death. They don’t remain ‘dead’ for long though, the remains mutating into dark dragons or other beings of pure darkness. They wander aimlessly, trying to find any source of light in the hopes that they can relight the fire they lost, have the hope that - as minuscule as it may be - they can return to the lands of Sky and return to their normal life. The consciousness of the child who’s been mutated remains partially intact, that’s the only reason they’re still hunting down anything that gives off warmth - but they’re not aware of what they’ve become. All they know is that they’re cold, and that other sky kids run away from them no matter what they do.

In other words, the sky kids who don’t make it through are eternally trapped, until you provide them brief respite through freeing them during your weekly/monthly/etc runs. That’s why you see them in orbit sometimes. Those who can’t or refuse to continue perish, to put it very bluntly. I imagine after a certain length of time, their remaining consciousness fades entirely and all that’s left is a monster of darkness, wandering with nothing but subjecting others to the same fate as it fell to on its mind, taking out the envy, anger, and spite that got left behind on the poor souls it finds - those that have wandered where they should never have gone.

———————————————————

Ngl the only reason I came up was this is cause I wanted all the players who’ve quit at Eden, before/in/after, to have a purpose. It sounds bad when I put it like that but idk how else to put it— my old account, I started just before season of dreams started and I quit the same week cause I didn’t want to go through Eden, and I was unaware there was more to the game aside from “fly through pretty world, talk to old spirit looking things, die.” I returned to the game midway through season of remembrance, and I’m very glad I did. I don’t have a lot of headcannons for lore or anything like that, but this is one of them, and as sad as it is- I like it. I love the krill, I love the dark creatures and I love the light creatures too. I feel like the dark creatures don’t get enough love sometimes and I wanted to make something dedicated to them - and, again, it’s sad, but this makes me love them even more- even if I fell asleep by accident while playing that one time and got attacked by the krill and crabs so many times that I got sent to the pity room. Meh.

Anyways, here’s a doodle of my skykid and his buddies to make you less sad 👌

ִֶָWelcome to my Blog.ᐟ

Finally got around to making a proper intro to my blog along with some guidelines for requesting and asks. 𖹭

Yes, I can and will answer questions. You can request I do things as well since requests tend to get me motivation to actually DO things.

I'll take requests for fanfics/one-shots and headcanons for certain characters from any fandoms I am in.

I also do a lot of theories and theorize.

If you do not know the fandoms I talk about, here is a little list for ya'll.

Elden Ring (Main Game and DLC)

Dungeons and Dragons/DND

Honkai Star Rail/HSR

Genshin Impact

Armored Core 6

Cult of the Lamb (Main Game and Free Updates)

Skyrim

Delicious in Dungeon/Dungeon Meshi

Bungou Stray Dogs/BSD

The Amazing Digital Circus/TADC

Epic: The Musical

Some not so popular ones I'm in are also:

Violet Evergarden

My Happy Marriage

Skul: The Hero Slayer (Main Game and DLC)

I will edit and update the list everytime I start talking about another fandom, so keep that in mind!

Anyway, as for guidelines about requests and all that, I will really do anything writing wise in fanfics, I think, as long as everything is CONSENSUAL and LEGAL then we are good. (I really can't think of any other guidelines than that.)

Alright, I think that's it. Bye ya'll.

HSR Sunday's Boss Fight Theory.

(Spoilers for Penacony Quest Below!)

I feel like people are not talking enough about how Sunday literally almost ascended in his boss fight, as far as I can tell, anyway.

Like, he was the 'Embryo of Philosophy.' He was in the middle of turning into an Aeon following the path of Philosophy and ascending to take the place of Order instead of reviving Ena without his knowledge.

I think it is really sad when you think about how Sunday fully believed he was doing the right thing and tried to revive Ena, only to be tricked into unknowingly starting to ascend into Aeonhood.

I could ramble on and on about how sad of a character Sunday is and all that, but I have to stay on topic for now.

Anyway, back to his ascension.

So, I do want to point out something I noticed during his boss fight that I found rather... interesting.

During his third phase, we all know about his big attack that practically nukes your team, right?

Well, during that attack, we see a hand coming down and reaching towards Sunday, to which he reaches back and they touch fingers, causing the attack to happen.

The attack and scene in question.

Now, most people tend to assume that this is Ena, and I do as well. At least, I did think it was Ena until I stared at the screen a bit too hard and went, "Wait a damn minute–"

Dearest gentlereader, care to take a little looksie at Ena for me?

Ena, the Order.

Do you see that? Their hands?

That's right! Ena's hands don't match the hands during Sunday's boss fight at all.

So, I am going to tell you that this is not Ena and not Xipe either, because that wouldn't make sense at all. Even then, Xipe's hands are a deep blue, so that wouldn't match either.

Now, I know during that move, Sunday speaks as if he is talking to Ena, yes. However! If Sunday is truly oblivious to the fact he is ascending and is under the full belief that he is reviving Ena, he probably also does not realize that who he is talking to. IS. NOT. ENA.

So, who is it? Who is this this mysterious hand coming from the heavens? Well, what if I say it is the Aeons version of Sunday's hand?

Alright, don't scroll or click off, just hear me out!

The hand shares certain similarities to both Ena and Xipe. (The white part with the gold design being reminiscent of Ena. The thumb also shares a bit of Xipes color scheme, albeit with a bit of a stretch.)

You can also see during the scene that there are angel feathers coming down from where the hand comes from, something neither of the other Aeons possess. But you know who has feathers and wings? The handsomest man in Penacony, that's who!

During the build-up to the move, the subtitles were repeating the words from his diary, if I am correct, (which might has well just been a Bible at that point) until you get to the hand scene, as if slowly bridging the gap between his mortal body and his soon-to-be Aeon form.

Am I crazy? Am I right? I have no clue!

I might be totally off the mark with this, but I'm posting this anyway.

Bye ya'll, hope I didn't completely waste your time!

i know this couple and i’m convinced one of them is the devil in human form and still processing they found a human who matches their evil.. i don’t know which ones which

I have a theory about Yellow Guy

In the 6th episode, Electricity, we see Yellow Guy go up those stairs, right? It’s even suggested he has been up there before - but hear me out. What if he and Lesley were always up there in the attic to begin with? Here’s my evidence: Yellow guy is shown to have undeniable intelligence when he is fitted with new batteries. His previous ones were old and “moldy”, so that suggested he never changed them. This also suggests that there was a time he had fresh batteries and this was not the first time he had acquired this ‘intelligent’ state. This could imply that as time went on, as the battery ran out, his intelligence started to deteriorate, and so did his memory. This also makes me believe that the “Big Boys Room” and the “Bigger Boys Room” were used to accommodate Yellow Guy’s mind. The higher the levels, the more ‘smarter’ they were, which makes me believe that as Yellow Guy grew ‘less smart’, he moved down each levels, going from Lesley, to the Bigger Boys Room, to the Big Boys room, and finally to the ground floor with the trio we all know and love. Adding onto that, did you notice that Yellow Guy was absent from these rooms? Red Guy and Duck was there, sure, but they seem to recognize Yellow Guy as a returning character. They even say he’s “Missing out” and he has to “Keep up”, which could suggest he had been away for a long time (due to his intelligence diminishing as prior mentioned). Lesley mentions that they are all replaceable, and that she “has plenty of backups”. But if that was the case, why is there multiple Red Guys and Ducks and only one Yellow Guy? This is here where we continue to theorize so buckle up. Lesley and Yellow Guy are obviously linked. With several evidence of Yellow Guy being Lesley’s son, David (Her saying “you’re not my real son”, Yellow Guy’s dream scene in the episode “Transport”, the photos Duck has in the episode “Family” etc. etc.) we can already see she has an attachment to him. There is also evidence that she is not the one in full control, with her felt like appearance and the fact that when we first see her, she states,

“Batteries can be replaced,

but some things stay the same.

No matter how we twist and turn,

we're still dancing in chains."

The first line is an obvious callback to Yellow Guy’s situation: unlike the other puppets of the trio, he requires batteries to function. Or at least, think freely for himself. Kind of like a toy. But he himself is not replaceable. That’s why the other levels do not have a Yellow Guy. So he “never changes”. But Lesley continues, using the inclusive pronoun, “we”, to suggest that he and Lesley are in the same position: Trapped as puppeteers for a greater being. Both of them had been in discomfort, fighting for independent control, suggested by the phrase “twist and turns” showing constant change of path, creating a sense of restlessness. But at the end of the day, both of them were still puppets “in chains”. When Yellow Guy leaves the ‘highest’ floor, it is shown that there are more stairs, which hints there being more ‘intelligent’ beings, possibly the puppeteers (aka the producers of the show and Roy as shown by ending credits). This could probably answer the question on why Lesley had the book (which has been widely believed to be their escape plan) that Yellow Guy had written in his own language and gives the show a lot more lore.

So my conclusion? Yellow Guy and Lesley used to conspire how to escape the puppet universe together in order to break free, but due to negligence on changing batteries, Yellow Guy was eventually used just as just a puppet for Lesley to replace her lost son and as a form of entertainment to preserve the memory of David, while Yellow Guy permanently loses his memories, succumbing to the inevitable fate of becoming a puppet more the wider audience.

WARNING: SPOILERS FOR LIGIT ALL OF SCARLET AND VIOLET

<<~🌼~>>

Ok. So I’m like dead set on Birar being the main villain of Indigo Disk, but I wanted to elaborate a bit on my theory:

Briar is a descendant of Heath, who was a writer and historian. The other professor (I’ll be using Turo for this so it’s easier to write) isn’t even a professor at all- he’s an author, admiring Heath’s work long after his death. Later in life, Turo meets Sada, who also admires Heath, and Briar, who wishes to continue her grandfather’s research by going down to Area Zero again to find Terapagos. Turo and Sada fall in love during the expedition, but they also find the Paradox Pokemon, along with Miraidon and Koraidon, which the team takes in and keeps in their lab located in Area Zero.

Later, Sada gets pregnant with her and Turo’s son, Arven. They take a break and move into the greenhouse next to the lighthouse in Cabo Poco, much to Briar’s dismay. She tries to convince Sada and Turo to come back and bring Arven with them after his birth, to which the parents turn down the offer. Within the time that Arven grows up, Briar becomes a teacher at Blueberry Academy, and decides to visit one day. Sada and Briar get into an argument about the expedition, but Briar manages to convince Sada to continue the expedition with pity points.

Turo reluctantly brings Arven along into Area Zero due to Briar’s request and gets the boy a Maschiff (“So it would be easier to watch him”) as a present. Briar’s insistent nagging of Sada to continue for the good of Paldea makes Sada start neglecting her son, and he befriends Koraidon as a result. Miraidon becomes friendly with Koraidon as well, but Briar is only concerned about finding Terapagos so she can receive the power of the Terastal phenomenon. Fueled by this, she keeps Sada away from those Briar perceive as “threats” to the expedition, namely Turo and Arven.

Turo, concerned about his fiancé's well-being, tries to convince her to come back home and take a break, leading to an argument between them that makes Sada realize her misdeeds. She tells Briar that she and her family will no longer be participating in the expedition, only for another argument between the two women to unfold. Briar, snapping, realizes that the only way Sada will stay is if Turo and Arven are gone.

Soon after Maschiff evolves into Mabosstiff, Briar causes a security breach after intentionally hurting Miraidon to make Koraidon rage. Sada pushes Turo out of the way, and Mabosstiff saves Arven, only for Sada to get killed on contact and for Mabosstiff to get almost killed. Briar tries to convince Turo to stay, but he refuses, breaking off of the expedition and bringing Koraidon and Miraidon with him, seeing that the two Pokemon are his responsibility now. Briar goes back to Blueberry Academy, now not being able to go down to find Terapagos without a permit.

Turo goes into a spiraling depression, creating an AI version of Sada that later realizes its purpose and hides in Area Zero. Turo spirals, leaving Arven and Koraidon in the lighthouse and retreating to the greenhouse with Miraidon, telling his son to never leave the lighthouse until his return with the Scarlet Book while Turo himself takes the Violet Book with him. Turo spends his days trying to pinpoint the location of AI Sada… Until a familiar face greets him.

The familiar face tells him about how she’d seen Arven leave the lighthouse and give Koraidon to some kid trainer who didn’t know what they were doing, and that Turo’s son, the trainer, and two other kids were going into Area Zero. Turo, taking advantage of this, activates a duplicate Miraidon that is extremely hostile towards the group to slow them down, only for AI Sada to stop it. Turo, now knowing AI Sada’s location, takes control of it, hoping that by beating the kids, she’ll return to him. The trainer that Arven had given Koraidon to beat her, which makes Turo lose control of her. AI Sada retreats into the past via a time machine, and Turo sobs into his hands…

… Before he feels a sharp object tear into his chest. He flops over the desk, blood staining his ragged clothes, leaving only Briar standing before him, having had enough of his failure. Now that Sada and Turo were out of the way, she only needed to get their son out of the way… And with the transfer project of Naranja and Blueberry Academy that Cyrano had specifically planned out for her, she would simply use Arven’s little friends to lure him in.

“… And that’s where you come in,” Briar says, her gaze looming over the boy, who stands with his back to her. “I hope you’ll prove your worth, unlike that useless man. Don’t disappoint me, Kieran.”

Anyways thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

Sometimes a woman just has to draw while listening to conspirancy theories as it rains with drops of water subtly tapping against the window

Okay, so, I feel like Camilo started losing his gift earlier than we saw in the movie, like around the time Luisa did. Because, hear me out, my theory is that Luisa was the first to lose her gift because she used it the most, she was one of the most hardworking Madrigals. And that's why, and, my proof? Well, listen to Surface pressure, all about how she had too much on her shoulders, how she worked too much. And maybe the magic just wanted to tell her to take a break in some sort of way??

And, with that theory settled, your probably wondering, what does this have to do with Camilo?

Well, simple, he's a shapeshifter, so people obviously ask him to shapeshift, and he's a Madrigal, so who is he to say no? And all the Madrigals work hard, so he does too. And, I got proof for that he works hard:

He's the town babysitter, we all saw it when he helped that mother during The family Madrigal, he seemed experienced, no? And that mother just gave her baby to him, with no question or anything. That tells us that he's the town babysitter, and he had to get that title somewhere. From working! And he's probably been babysitting for ten years, so he definitely took care of the kids we saw in the movie, and you babysit little kids too. Who better than the person who babysitted them as babies? Who also was the main babysitter in town? If I was a parent, then I would definitely go for that babysitter. I would want the best for my kids.

And, if I were a kid there, I'd definitely want him to shapeshift, into my mother, or me! So, he definitely shapeshifted a lot.

And, the reason Camilo eats so much is because of his gift, it takes energy to shapeshift, energy that he gets from eating and sleeping. And, I think we all understand that he probably takes extras after and maybe during they were eating, and that he takes midnight snacks, and it's probably canon. How much food he eats depends on how much he shapeshifts. So, he obviously shapeshifts a lot.

And, just later in The family Madrigal, Mirabel says My primo Camilo won't stop until he makes you smile today. I feel like that was literal, he won't stop, he wants everybody to be happy. That's why he was so goddamm funny in the movie, he tried to make everybody happy, he wants them to smile and laugh. And what better way to do that then to shapeshift? He can make funny faces with his gift. I don't know about you, but I would think that was funny!

And people probably ask him to turn into them or someone else to help, like Abuela said when they were getting ready for Antonio's ceremony. "Camilo, we need another José.", I feel like the others say that too, just replacing José with the name of the person they need him to turn into.

So, back to what I was saying, he works almost just the same amount that Luisa does, another kind of way. And he seems like he's really dedicated to helping. Like Luisa is.

He fills this role in the town, according to Steph Anya, LMFT, he's the distractor, he stops family tension from rising, it's a useful role to have in a family, but that person doesn't have experience with being serious, since that person is always joking, never serious, which we can see him doing in the movie, he's like the town jokester. And, how would he defuse tension? By shapeshifting. So, that again, proves that he shapeshifts a lot.

And, what if he shapeshifts in his sleep? People have kinda covered it, does that mean he wakes up strained? Because in pretty much every Camilo Angst story, there is some issue with his gift, like he's tired, or always hungry, and he strains when shapeshifting too much. And I, personally, believe that it's true, shapeshifting must have an affect on him, every gift has a downside, like the headcanon that Bruno has migraines because he has accidental visions. I mean, isn't there just something with that headcanon that makes it so you want it to be canon?

But, anyways, both Luisa and Camilo work really hard.

And, since he's so nice and funny, doesn't it just seem like people would turn to him if they were upset? They're placing their burdens on him, like they do with Luisa.

Okay, you don't need to agree with my theory, it's pretty crappy. Isn't it?

I’ve been feeling really disconnected lately. I crave conversations about astronomy, psychology, and philosophy—those deep dives into mythology and the mysteries of the universe. I want to discuss the stars, the moon, and the way different languages shape our thoughts. It’s tough when no one around me shares that passion; it often feels like I’m speaking a different language. If you’re out there and want to explore these topics together, let’s connect. I’d love to find someone to share ideas and rants with.

MURDER DRONES REALIZATION 😲

Yall, i dnt know who needs to hear this but i have a theory...

we know Cyn gave V, N, and J a mission and in the last episode i think it basically confirmed their mission was to kill Yeva and Nori (and since Uzi and Doll were born them as well) so N didnt kill nori just on a whim, he was hired to kill her spesifically because she had the solver as was V with Yeva. its really obvious looking at it now i just thought it was neat lol. but hey, thats just a THEORY

I don't mean to sound like a ☝️🤓, but there's a very great analysis of Emesis Blue that takes the original script and the interviews with the creators into account.

This is the link to the full video since I don't want to end up misinforming:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SE0wsK-MIdE&pp=ygULZW1lc2lzIGJsdWU%3D

I want to just touch on that Spy's Disguise allegory: in the final chapter, when Fritz is driving the ambulance to his presumed death, behind him you can see a Blu Spy laying down in the back if the van and it is (if I remember correctly from the video) confirmed that that is the Spy from Spy's Disguise. So him and the Smoker are two separate persons.

Which I personally like better. I dunno, I like the idea that the Emesis Spy (I think they named him Jacques??) is just this huge, selfish piece of shit who thinks he's better than everyone and deserves his own lackey and deflects all of his own faults onto Jane Doe.

why was spy so mean to soldier in emesis blue I get that he's stupid but damn chill out dude

Pennywise Origin Theory

I have watched the IT Chapter 2 second trailer over and over but something has been stumping me. The final scene of a half Pennywise half Bill skarsgård groaning and clutching his face before letting out a terrifying roar/scream over the title card.

And now I’ve come up with a bit of a theory for the origin of Pennywise. I know in the books and Tim Curry version Pennywise is an ancient being and what I have theorised has no connections but give it some thought.

So here it is. Pennywise is actually a creature like the Thing from John Carpenter's The Thing.

In The Thing, a group of American researchers are attacked by a creature that can assimilate and imitate other living creatures perfectly, in Antartica. The film creates a good sense of dread and distrust of the characters because not even the audience know who is a thing and who is human.

And this is where my theory comes in. Pennywise is not as power-crazy as the original Thing. In the Thing, the creature wants to be found and brought to a populated area where it can assimilate multiple people and infect the whole world. Pennywise on the other hand just wants to survive and feast when it can, not wanting to be discovered and killed. When Pennywise first comes to earth he needs to find a host to assimilate and imitate till he can find a better place to bring his victims. And so the closes person he can find is this unnamed man, who will be played by Bill Skarsgård with no makeup or anything. Just a normal human.

Pennywise will latch itself onto the unnamed man and when he is all alone is when he will start to assimilate him, taking over his body and mind. It will then start to imitate a clown due to the circus being in town and after it seeing children go up to clowns with no fear or care, easy targets to feast on. This will connect with the picture Beverly sees in the old lady house of Bill Skarsgård smiling creepily at the camera. Pennywise would sometime have to look human so no one would get suspicious. 

and the laughing/screaming of the man will be due to him losings his mind and going crazy finally being taken over by the creature who later prefers the form of Pennywise over any other.

So that’s my theory! Little far fetch but think about it.

Spider Man Far From Home (Mister Negative) Theory

So this is something I noticed.

In Spider Man Far From Home, Aunt May works at a homeless shelter for those who lost their homes due to them being gone via the blip.

In the game, Aunt May is doing the same with boss or coworker (I can’t remember at the moment) Martin Li, who later turns out to be the villain Mister Negative.

So here is my theory, what if the MARVEL is going to introduce Martin Li into the MCU to, later on, become Mister Negative and face either Peter or another hero.

you need to read this.

Okay this is gonna be long, but I’ve got a lot of ground to cover so please bear with me. In a real way, this is my series thesis.

I’ve said before, many times now (like a cycle) that for me the most important scene is ep 1 act 1 scene 1. There’s something There that I have been struggling to see clearly, struggling to articulate, and s2e9 really finally gave me the last pieces for it.

I think that Pit Girl is the point of the entire story. But not in the way that I thought going in. I feel like I’m rambling, so I’m going to try to structure my thoughts.

Imagine you’re a new viewer. You haven’t watched yj start to finish 30 times, you’ve never even buzzed before. You turn on the tv and the FIRST thing that happens is you see … brutality. A half dressed girl chased through the freezing woods, murdered without a chance. They drag her through the snow, string her up, pour her blood on the ground. Hack her into unrecognisable chunks. Sit around in scary outfits and rip at her, with a huge focus on the teeth, as horror music plays. Then, Misty takes off her mask, puts on her glasses, and does the worst possible thing. She smiles. Directly at you.

Again, forget everything you know and go on vibes. You’re seeing the teens pre-crash, and you’re seeing them in the third timeline, fully formed, with horror motifs and covered in fur. You’d be mistaken for thinking that you were seeing start and end. Except that… we know, and you know, that Pit Girl is the middle. These monsters somehow came back from this. How? When they’re so so so far gone?

Hence the show. I know I’m not breaking new ground here, but bear with me. I’m going somewhere.

Apartment 21 Theories and Headcanons

Let’s overthink Lyle’s weird as hell living space.

First off! The titular Lyle! Going to try to keep this section limited to what we can learn about Lyle through his apartment rather than just thoughts about Lyle himself, as he is possibly the single most-discussed character in the whole game. And we can infer a lot!

Jeanne’s dialogue confirms that apartment 21 is actually Lyle’s apartment, seeing as she does consider him her neighbor. It’s not a situation where Lyle moved into someone else’s abandoned apartment after the apocalypse started.

The D&D stuff makes it clear that Lyle’s a fan of tabletop games! Do you suppose he’s part of an ongoing group, or is he looking for people to play with? It can be so hard to find a local playgroup! I like to think he and Edwin had a group going, maybe with a few other astronomers involved.

Considering we get the crossword book from him but also that it’s completely unstarted, I assume that it’s one of those things that’s he’s been meaning to get around to but never quite found the time (been there, buddy).

Funnily enough, one thing that we don’t see in his apartment that we should be in there is the zoom lens that Edwin’s loan log says Lyle is currently borrowing! But considering his partly mechanical form, it’s possible that the zoom lens is simply part of his body now.

Lyle’s dark room! I’d wager Mr. Henderson wouldn’t exactly approve if it’s existence if he were to ever find out. This strikes me as something that breaks some kind of agreement found in you average renter’s agreement.

Notably you can only ever access the dark room if you kill Lyle to get the key! He doesn’t grant you entry under any circumstance, and it’s not exactly hard to see why considering what his ‘special project’ is.

On that note, Lyle will never attack you! It is impossible to get him to be the one to instigate a fight, you have to attack him out of the blue.

The photos of Sam make it clear that Lyle’s affection for Sam isn’t a new development by any means.

More concerningly, though, is the key you can find between two of the bookshelves. It’s SAM’S apartment key, which the more eagle-eyed and elephant-memoried of you out there will recall is the spare that’s missing from the plant outside Sam’s apartment! It’s dubious as to whether or not Lyle has ever used the key.

As far as I’m aware, the key has no actual purpose other than to serve as an ominous reminder of Lyle’s obsession.

What the fuck is Lokjaw’s deal. Seriously. Lyle. Why do you have a man in your unlocked closet? I can excuse the hamburger man you have locked in your bedroom (we’ll get to him), but this is just ridiculous.

My thought on why Lokjaw hasn’t just left the (completely unlocked) closet is because their mental state has deteriorated to the point where they cannot operate a door. Maybe they don’t even recognize that a door is a thing that leads to another place anymore.

But that’s assuming Lokjaw was ever human to begin with! I’ve seen theories that they were Lyle’s dog (credit to @crankyteapot once more), which would explain the mutant’s posture, strange lower jaw, and why they’re in Lyle’s closet in the first place!

But considering that there’s no dog bowl, no collar, and no reaction from Lyle if you kill Lokjaw? I’d wager that if they are a dog, they’re not Lyle’s dog, but rather just some random already-mutated dog he came across! It went sniffing around the closet and Lyle just shut the door behind it. This making it a problem for future Lyle.

Lokjaw does drop raw pork if you kill it, which is… hmm. Something.

I… don’t think there’s any pleasant explanation as to why it drops raw pork actually.

Something about Lokjaw, whether human or canine, makes me think they had a very nervous disposition. There’s something so defensive about their posture, and their facial expression seems so scared! Unfortunately for us, this translates to the mindset of ‘kill the thing that is scaring me’.

Unfortunately, the reason for Tumorhead’s presence in apartment 21 isn’t any clearer than Lokjaw’s! If anything it’s stranger because he’s in what appears to be Lyle’s bedroom, and he’s even locked in there by those strange fleshy growths.

On thing IS clear: the hamburger found around the room is pretty clearly implied to be meat that’s fallen off of a Tumorhead himself, judging by what happens in battle. Sam is the bravest man alive for taking this meat and cooking it.

@crankyteapot pointed out a few visual similarities between Tumorhead’s clothing and the Onlookers, and I could see there being a connection!

I really love the idea that Tumorhead, having looked outside but while still human, stumbled drunk into Lyle’s apartment and collapsed into his bed (with Lyle being too timid to correct them). The poor guy nursing a splitting headache that manifested very viscerally as his metamorphosis completed in his sleep.

Located in Lyle’s bathroom, we finally have an easy-to-explain mutant presence! The broken-down door makes it pretty clear that this guy forced his way in from F1 through Lyle’s shortcut.

Since this guy is pretty clearly implied to be from F1, I wonder if he has any association with that one gigantic eye in the unnumbered rooms? On one hand there’s some surface level similarities, but on the other hand Eyecluster’s eyes are functionally distinct: they’ve been modified into acid-launchers and it’s unclear if he can still see out of any of them!

My favorite detail is how Eyecluster’s posture seems off balance from the sheer volume of eyes he has, it’s a neat touch that conveys just how ungainly their newly added parts are! And I adore how the Visitor’s effects clearly don’t care about what an organ USED TO do. Your eyeballs spit acid now. Your hair can eat things. Your tongue is easier to get around on than your legs.

This is nothing but pure headcanon, but I like to think that on the morning Eyecluster beheld the Visitor, he woke up wearing contact lenses that he’d left on overnight by mistake. The unpleasant sensation in his eyes ended up heavily influencing the results of his transformation.

It’s what you all came here for, it’s LYLE BATHTUB THEORY TIME!!

So. Lyle’s bathtub. It’s weirdly long, right? And that’s not just sprite perspective weirdness! The comically long bathtub has actual inspection dialogue that reads ‘huh this thing is long as hell, weird huh?’ and it also points out that the whole room looks stretched. Sure enough, the less conspicuous but still very conspicuous counter across from it is also weirdly long!

But why? I’ll tell you why. I think Leigh stretched Lyle’s bathtub. it’s not what’s INSIDE the bathroom, but rather OUTSIDE!

The other side of the south bathroom wall is the hallway where Leigh chases you. You know, the hallway that she supernaturally lengthened so she could have more fun chasing Sam. Not only that, but this chase is required in order to access Lyle’s apartment in the first place, you cannot access Lyle’s bathroom without having done the Leigh chase!

So Leigh’s space-warping chase tunnel seems to have had some lasting effects on the adjoining rooms! Which makes sense. Sure, Leigh has some kinda of vague elongating powers, but you can’t tell me she knows how they work or how to use them in a way that doesn’t have some lingering effects.

Hopefully it’s helpful to Lyle! I mean, he’s larger now. He definitely would not fit comfortably into a normal bathtub, but on the other hand it’s also questionable if he even can bathe, what with all his mechanical parts.

Look Outside Posting part 3: Inside

Today we'll be discussing the warping of interior spaces in the apartment.

Credit to this post by @bunnieswithknives about Sybil being the flesh moss. I REALLY like the theory that floor 1 is an endless maze because Sybil is unconsciously trying to keep everyone in away from windows- it's delightful.

But that being said, it's not enough to explain the sheer number of distinct room-distortion effects happening in the building. Many of them seem notably indifferent or hostile in intent, and not all of them are from people who are actually physically fused with the rooms.

To review some of them:

The Grinning Beast's disappearing doorway and stretching hall. (And quite possibly Lyle's stretched bathroom too - credit to @contract-crawdad for noticing the similarity there.)

The landlord's apartment: time dilation, more and more rooms being inserted, the door in the back returning to the front, and a false "outside" battlefield. Almost certainly connected to the mutated landlord.

The infinite floor 1, and the infinite hallway in apartment 13. I actually think these are thanks to Rat Hole and his twin, the Mouth - they're entwined in the walls there, the two phenomena are similar, and Rat Hole mentions something about "infinite length" in his horrifying ramble about how he got this way.

The Stargazer's dark and light versions of the same apartment, including the dark version somehow extending next door into what should be Sam's apartment 33.

The dark pits that there is definitely not space for between some of the floors (rat rooms and teeth apartment, especially).

Possibly some of the themed room environments, like the taxidermy walls and the abundant greenery in the plant room.

The point to all this: this is a recurring phenomenon, and it crops up in different ways, in different localized areas. There's a mechanism behind it, beyond just the unexplainable powers some monsters get.

Isn't it weird that interior rooms are changing? They're practically defined by being places the Visitor can't see. Maybe that's the crux of it?

The common factor is areas frequented by certain Witnesses - possibly ones that are less than sane in particular, as Mutt's Fish and Chips and the boiler room camp seem fine, or possibly places that are the stomping grounds of only one particular mutant or type of mutant.

Per Part 1, witnesses have become, in effect, tiny extensions of the Visitor. It can't see through them that well, or being seen by them would be enough to transform you too.

But, maybe, the places they're familiar with can be picked up by it a little - enough for the warping effects of its perception to manifest.

I do wish we saw enough of the outside to say whether anything comparable might have happened to Earth's landscape, which the Visitor saw directly. Maybe its view being filtered through an unfamiliar brain and senses is necessary for this to happen so dramatically.

Look Outside Posting Part 2: Infectious Mutations

Today we're talking about the contagious mutants. The tooth family, the rats, the hands from the bus, and so on (including those, like the SWAT truck, that fuse with their victims as part of the process).

These, I suspect, are more common than we actually see firsthand.

I think the likeliest explanation for most of the groups of enemies with similar themes is that they're from one or two people getting witnessed, and then attacking everyone else around until they're all a big, happy monster family. People just looking together, if they don't merge into a single amalgamation, doesn't appear to necessarily give them similar monstrous forms.

You would also expect a lot lower than a 100% mutation rate for, say, Vincent's party, which had at least seven people present, and not that big of a window in the apartment - someone would avoid the window where weird things were happening, try to flee, or at least get killed by one of the Onlookers and end up as a corpse on the floor. Same goes for the taxidermy or frozen apartments.

I think Vincent's party had two primary witnesses: Vincent, and the Gawker in the bathroom (who's at a later stage than the others).

And for something a lot of players might never find out about - the concealed eyeball gang is actually the one and only non-ending chance Sam has in the game to get infected by a monster himself, to my knowledge. There's a random event that can occur at the table, where Sam has an intrusive thought to cut himself open and see if he has eyes inside him like the wounded man at the beginning - and there's a 1 in 3 chance that his hunch turns out to be correct. Neato!

Anyway. It also struck me as strange that, in the endings where something doesn't literally, physically, personally grow to reach around the entire earth, there isn't a whole new zombie apocalypse with whichever infectious mutation happened to fare the best in the arms race. We know that this mechanism still works after the Visitor leaves, because of the Truth ending... so what I think is that in order to be an infectious mutant, you have to be a primary witness, i.e. people you infect can't continue to spread it - naturally limiting any potential outbreaks to direct contact with their single carrier.

I searched for a counterexample, but couldn't find any among the game's enemies. Rafta was a witness herself, the pipe men that got Placide were witnesses, the Rat King has plenty of mouths to be responsible for all the rats (though I still wonder where all those people even came from).

I thought for a moment that the landlord's attack might disprove it- HOWEVER! From Memorial's account of events on the bus, all of the mutated passengers were infected by a single witness, who exploded into dozens of tiny crawling hands that climbed on everyone. Very similar to the ones that that attacker was keeping in its stomach to release onto the landlord! How...... sweet? Some of the passengers literally scooped up a little of their primary witness to share. I guess it's nice that tiny hands guy is still alive?

It also makes it a little more plausible that Sam (and whichever companions) got through hand-to-hand combat with so damn many potentially contagious creatures without anybody getting turned.

Why this happens in the first place, seems to follow pretty naturally from my previous post's theories. The Visitor isn't great at telling individuals apart at the best of times. If I hold you close, or draw your blood... the division between our separate flesh blurs, and something might slip across.

Tags for Easy(ish) Navigation

Warning: I like nsfw/lewd jokes and might reblog them. You can blacklist the tag nsfw if you want.

(If this pops up in any tags, you can ignore this post. This is just for me)

OnS theories. First theory - Cross shaped daggers.

Well, as you might recall, in chapter 68, after Yu managed to save an Angel, a dagger popped out of his chest. Meanwhile, Saito himself had two. But who else has this dagger? Of course, Mahiru.

But what’s the function of this object? Have you noticed who has the daggers Saito had? Easy, that’s Yuichiro Hyakuya at the end of chapter 77.

As you saw, Yu had two long spears on his back. But if you zoom the image, you can see the small dagger turned into a spear.

This dagger, allows the person to recover their memories. Also, it allows the person to not lose their memories or essence.

This is a mayor spoiler for those who aren’t aware of the newest light novel but Saito himself threw a dagger to Mahiru. This dagger entered in Mahiru’s neck but it allowed Mahiru to not forget who she was, what she did, and what she was aiming for.

And this is the sole reason why Mahiru teases Guren, remembers that she killed Guren’s friends and why she ended the world along with Guren.

Now, in the case of Yuichiro Hyakuya, these two daggers are working for two reasons. The first one, is to make Asuramaru remember who he was and what happened to him after he became a demon. Therefore he’ll remember his sister, his past and everything he lived.

The second dagger might allow Yu to finally recover all his lost memories and finally erase the altered ones that were made in the Hyakuya Sect while they were experimenting with him. 

There’s a high possibility that he might remember his past life but at the same time, this dagger will allow Yu to not be influenced by Sika Madu, because the first Yu had empty eyes as he were hypnotized. Therefore, there’s a high chance he’ll find a way to resist and fight back.

Now, who else has a dagger in possession? Yes our loved vampire, Ferid Bathory.

But in his current state, he has no legs, no arms and he’s literally a living head with torso. It seems like Sika Madu enjoys slaughtering Ferid since it’s the third time he does it. The first one being in chapter 61. The second time being chapter 76 and finally chapter 77.

Now, do you wonder why Crowley Eusford didn’t appear in the recent chapter? There’s a high chance that Crowley might be badly injured but will be able to stab Shinoa with the only dagger left. Which will allow them to have a limited amout of time to kick Shikama Doji out of Shinoa’s body.

But how will this work if Shikama Doji is currently possessing Shinoa and has all his memories?

Well, the reason is simple. Shikama Doji once stated in the light novel that Shinoa is a reflection of himself. This is because Shinoa asked him once why he knew what she was thinking. Which the mentioned only replied with: -That’s because you are me.

In general, all the demons we’ve met so far are the reflection of human’s negative energy or bad memories. But in this case Shinoa is like the human reflection of Sika Madu. We could say that Sika Madu is on his original body again but Shinoa is like the counterpart of that body.

Let me know what you think guys. I’ll update the next theory in an hour or so!

Zexal Month Day 19: Illuminati Confirmed

(I am using the sub names in this post, don’t ask why I just felt like it.)

I have many of these so get ready.

Theory 1-Yuma doesn’t become the king of games, IV does.

Zexal is the first Yu-gi-oh to not end with the protagonist becoming the King of Games. In the last episode, we are told that he returns to school, and eventually fights a threat in Astral world. Nothing is said about him advancing his dueling career, but you know who does?

Everyone’s favorite puppet boy. This isn’t the only evidence though, in Arc-V episode 14 Yuya and Skip (Zuzu’s dad) are playing on an action field containing famous card names and other various Yu-gi-oh references. In one shot you can see the name ‘Quattro’ on a building.

Quattro is IV’s dubname, and since there isn’t any other ‘Quattro’ in Yu-gi-oh I think it’s safe to assume it’s talking about IV. What would make IV so famous as to have his name put up next to StarDust dragon in an action field? Probably his duel achievements, specifically becoming the next king of games.

Theory 2-III’s deck confirms the 5Ds/Zexal alternate universe timelines.

This theory starts with a timeline created (or at least thoroughly explained) by the Youtuber Yu-Gi-Oh Everything. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToJEAdnOWls

While everything might not be perfect, it is a pretty accurate representation of the YuGiOh timeline. It shows Zexal being in a completely different dimension than 5Ds, the two dimensions being across from each other. Now I never watched 5Ds, so if my knowledge is lacking I apologize, but what I do know is there was an Aztec dragon named the ‘Crimson Dragon’, along with other Aztecian references. You know what else has Aztec references in it?

 III’s deck. In fact, he flat out states:

“The deck I am using is called OOParts. OOParts are evidence of a connection between this world and a different dimension! In this world, there are multiple dimensions overlapping each other! And some people believe that OOParts come from there.”

Zexal Episode 46, Subbed.

“Chronomalys are mysterious artifacts that could link this world to other dimensions. See, this world is apart of a multidimensional matrix, and chronomalys may have come here from another dimension.”

Zexal Episode 46, Dubbed.

Even though he may be talking about Barian world and Astral world, I highly doubt it since his deck focuses more on Aztec monsters, not monsters Barian or Astral themed. 

Now who gave him his cards, and his curiosity in his deck as a whole? His father.

Byron Arclight was a researcher and went on an expedition to find a gateway to an alternate dimension, along with Yuma’s dad Kazuma, and Kaito’s dad Dr.Faker. Perhaps the world they were looking for wasn’t Barian or Astral world, but instead the 5Ds dimension.

Theory 3-Every being has a counterpart in Barian world and Astral world.

This one is probably the biggest stretch, but hear me out. We already know reincarnation exists, due to Nacsh and Merag reincarnating as Rio and Ryoga, and Rio reincarnating as Iris, but what are the chances Nacsh and Merag would look exactly like the twins? My theory is that every person has an astral world and barian world counterpart, someone who looks nearly or completely identical, and when one being dies, their counterparts do as well. 

Using the example from earlier, Nacsh and Merag not only look identical to the twins in their human forms, but they also died around or at the same time as the Kamishiros.

And what about Iris? I believe she is Rio’s third counterpart, who would originally be in Astral world, but die along with the twins and be rebirthed in Barian.

Theory 3.5-Mizeal is Kaito’s counterpart

Going off my last theory, I believe Kaito’s counterpart would be none other than Mizeal. Why? Both have the same blonde hair, ridiculous white pants, and same blue eyes. Each also wields a Galaxy-eyes and are prideful and arrogant. “Don’t they die at different times?” I hear you asking. Well if it’s believed the counterparts die *around* the same time, instead of exactly, then the theory still checks out, as Mizeal died fighting Don Thousand less than an hour after Kaito’s moon death.

So these are my theories for Zexal! I’ll probably have more soon, I think about this series way more than I should.

Okay, this is very funny.

Now, apart from the occassional piece of fanfic I'd seen as a teenager, I was very much a Romione girl. As a girl who had been hopelessly in love with her best friend, they were my beacon of, "See?! It all works out in the end! It can happen!!"

But now as an adult, rereading HP and also stumbling headfirst into the world of fanfic, it never would have worked.

Harmione would have been ridiculous, for many reasons, but Romione is the relationship that would have worked for a while, but not lasted. They loved each other, absolutely, but they wanted different things. As much as I adore the ending of the HP series, in a more nuanced setting, it wouldn't have worked.

They'd have been bonded by their trauma, yes, loved each other, yes, and yes, I think they suited each other - as teens/early twenties. But I don't believe Hermione would have given up her ambitions to build The Burrow II. I don't think Ron would have been capable of stepping back and letting her shine.

They would love each other, but after a few years, they'd realize it didn't fit.

I think that's why people gravitate towards Dramione (along with the obvious chemistry between the two actors who brought them to life on the big screen and their friendship off-screen - hell, I'm still holding out hope for them). I think people can more easily imagine an organic, adult relationship growing out of their dynamic. Every fanfic seems to have a similar thread - a rivalry that eventually evolves into respect and into more. There is a power dynamic that ebbs and flows between the two characters, as opposed to guilt tripping and the over-familiarity between her and Ron. I realize this could be me going way too far down the rabbit hole and overthinking it, but I genuinely think this is why.

i just know hermione will put y'all in a jar for this
