#“the fandom's greatest expert on felix” lol

[wackus-bonkus-maximus]

So Wackus idk if you’ve already seen them but when representation first came out there were some anons theorising in flightfoot’s ask box about whether Felix knew about Adrien’s amoks being in both rings or not. Since you are the fandom’s greatest expert on all things Felix, I wanted to ask your opinion on the “Felix thought Adrien’s amok was just one ring” theory, which overall contends that:

- Felix only has one amok and may very well assume that’s the same for all sentis

- He and Amelie both treated the Graham De Vanily rings as family heirlooms and nothing else; neither knew or believed they were Adrien’s amoks, especially not when Amelie kept asking Gabriel to give them back

- Gabrie deliberately pretended they were just rings so Amelie or Felix wouldn’t figure out they were Adrien’s amok

- Amelie and Felix probably thought that Adrien’s amok was either MIA with Emelie or just another object kept by Gabriel

- Felix realised one ring was Adrien’s amok when Nathalie gave him (disguised as Adrien) an order in Risk

And

- Assuming Adrien had only the one amok, and that that was the ring Nathalie wore, Felix gave the other ring back to Gabriel without any qualms

This is the first theory for Felix giving back the ring that actually makes a lot of sense for me - I especially wonder if Felix lashing out at Adrien during his titular episode was partially from envy - he has never seen Adrien controlled with his amok so blatantly and perhaps assumed Gabriel didn’t have it or didn’t use it (and imo almost definitely thought Emilie didn’t)

you know, i was thinking about this too! it's the only theory that makes sense to me as well, given how felix views sentis and how he feels about adrien especially.

this was ring 1, which felix stole from gabriel in "felix."

gabriel then took ring 2 from emilie in the same episode.

i do think amelie thought the graham de vanily rings were just normal rings. however, i think felix believed they meant enough to the agrestes that they would use one of the rings as an amok. and i'm sure when felix showed up again in "gabriel agreste," he realized that adrien was still being controlled, that probably confirmed his suspicions that it was ring 2 and only ring 2. so he ruled out ring 1 as being adrien's amok and went snooping around for the 2nd.

it probably blew felix's mind when he realized adrien had 2 amoks. especially because he'd realized he already gave one back to gabriel. my guess is that dusuu told him the truth - and maybe that's part of the reason he was so angry in "emotion."

i definitely think this season could have used some more felix-centered episodes, especially tracking the progress of his hunt for adrien's amok. however, they did give us enough clues for felix's actions to make sense now, especially that trade in "strikeback!" i don't wanna say felix did nothing wrong, because he certainly acted a fool, but at least with this theory his goal to keep adrien safe is consistent.

would love to know what your thoughts are now, @flightfoot!
