Ok but I really like that there's like so many eras of Philip Wittebane and fans of him get a attached to specific ones and it's just so sweet and fun to see.
I love seeing kid Philip with Caleb and how different people portray their upbringing as orphans in the 1600s. I love seeing Philip as a young man coping with his brother's absence and how different fans interpret him navigating the isles. I love seeing beard Philip and how fans interpret his confrontation with Caleb and his spiral into depression and madness. I love seeing Preacher Belos and how fans interpret his interactions with the first grimwalkers and how he slowly conquered the isles. I ADORE present old man emperor and how utterly insane he is and everything he's done is finally coming back to haunt him.
He's falling apart and maybe he feels guilt, maybe he's actually having delusions, maybe he really thinks he's the hero and Caleb's soul can still be saved, maybe he's lying to everyone including himself, maybe he's gone through so much pain and suffering that accepting that he didnt have to go through all that is too much to bear so he has to keep believing his own lie.
This character is so fun and complex and everyone interprets him differently to the point anyone can see and point out a thing that no one has ever even noticed before and I think that is so beautiful.

anyway I think zedaph’s like. plotline. character arc whatever is so funny to me. This man shows up to hermitcraft after being in a singleplayer world for 100 episodes and the first thing he does is turn around and build a hole in the ground and not talk to hardly anyone. And the second thing he does is trap the door. Excellent. So then he spends a season or two being a genius and inventing new mental illnesses for his viewers to have and etc etc. Dresses up for Halloween as the embodiment of death and goes up to people and asks them to die. Like. Normal things. He builds another hole in the ground and builds a complicated redstone device that can tell the time for him so he doesn’t have to go outside. And of course he traps the door again. Then in season eight he decides you know what I’m going to start regularly interacting with people other than my two (2) close friends. And you know how I’m going to do it. I’m going to put them in a box and psychologically evaluate them. Awesome. Wonderful. We love to see it. You know what that is? Growth. And so now we’re at season nine and he’s pretty regularly teaming up with the others and being silly and everything. And you know like trying to spy on them without them noticing and normal stuff like that. But at the end of the day he still lives in a hole

Separated Halves
There’s something wrong. Ever since that accident with his parents’ new device, Danny can’t transform into his ghost form.
Heck, he can’t even his powers at all. Not even the ghost sense.
Even with access to his parents’ ghost hunting devices (which have helpfully (if inexplicably) stopped targeting him), can he really protect Amity Park like this?
………
There’s something wrong. Ever since that accident with his parents’ new device, Phantom can’t transform into his human form.
And to make things worse, he has no idea where he is, either. He’s never heard of “Gotham City” before, nor has he been able to find Amity Park on any of the maps he stole borrowed unofficially from the library.
He might have better luck going on a computer, but they’re currently locked down for the night and he wouldn’t exactly blend in during the day. Even with invisibility, someone could still notice his actions on the computer.
He could maybe overshadow someone to use as a disguise, but that could bring attention to him too, even if he tries to make it quick.
The last thing he needs is ghost hunters after his head. Sure, he’d probably win, but it’d waste time and there’s no reason to risk it in a situation like this.
He’s already waiting for the other shoe to drop and some ghost to come at him for entering their haunt unannounced. A city with emotions as heavy as this must surely have some ghosts. (right?)
Well, no matter what, he has to pick a course of action soon. He can’t afford to leave his haunt Amity Park unprotected for too long. The mere thought of his haunt home at risk while he wasn’t there to help burned at his core.
He shoved the anxious feelings down and forced his form to stabilize. His emotions were running higher than normal here, but he could control himself.
He was fine. He would find Amity Park. He would get back. He would.
He had to.
His obsession couldn’t take any other outcome.
