"Pre-twist, it's not just a study in Alfonse -- it's a study in Kiran, how they conceptualize Alfonse, how much they must know about him, to successfully act as him. Either subconsciously, almost reflexively (my interpretation first run, as a defense mechanism), or intentionally with full knowledge that they aren't who they claim to be (REALLY FASCINATING ANGLE. MUCH TO CONSIDER)."

^^^^^^^^ highlighting this in particular like This is how the Loadbearing Alfonse Wish Lore can still win. This is how I can implement this to still be true to Alfonse's character and lore while ALSO staying in-line with the Kiran Twist. <- COPING

#book 4 lore #SORRY THE WISH SCENE. THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE WISH SCENE. DO DRIVE ME INSANE #AND SO MUCH OF MY PERSONAL LORE. THE EXTENDED HEADCANON LORE. LIKE. I FUCKING MEAN IT #WGEN I SAY THOSE LINES/THAT SCENE IS FUCKING LOADBEARING‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️#like it connects back to moe it connects back to mani it connects back to triandra it connects back to peony #it connects back. to sharena.#it. somehow. always fucking does.#but adding this extra layer instead of just taking it at face value like i did for So Long.#WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!!!!!! WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!#is this something alfonse has confided in the summoner somehow? was it just a offhand conversation that stuck out to the summoner?#is it something the summoner is extrapolating from what they know about alfonse? which MIGHT NOT EVEN BE TRUE? (BUT MIGHT ALSO BE?)#THE. THE ANGLES.#SPEAKING BROADLY BC. you can apply this to kiran. goes insane i do think i have to like.#like i am starting to conceptualize kiran as their own character seperate from moe. which technically has always been the case #but now i'm insane about it.#BUT ALSO! ALSO! SPEAKING BROADLY BC!!!!!!! MANI. BOTH MOE AND MANI. BUT MOSTLY MANI #like. mani really is some of moe's most autistic traits personified. or maybe just the perfectionism flavored ones #but a little bit of funny mani lore is that it's more likely to pick up phrases and mimic them. like immediately.#LIKE. OVER TIME. you DO notice more of alfonse's vocabulary in moe. but moe has a VERY distinct sense of self #even as it flips and fluctuates between speech patterns. it's still undeniably moe.#mani has a VERY carefully curated image. LIKE MOE DOES TOO... IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. BUT #mani. that extremely carefully curated image. is all it has.#is all it is.#THE. DEFENSE MECHANISM. IT'S THE DEFENSE MECHANISM‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️#moe lore #ALWAYS. ALWAYS ON MY MOE BULLSHIT. I'M SO SORRY .
