#Yorick is too useful to just be another convenient lantern

[countdown-til-sanders-take-over]

Yorick is so interesting to me. Just like first of all its thing seems to be it can see through people's eyes? And John is Arthur's eyes.

Yorick's vast knowledge combined with its mechanics gives a bit of a sassy vibe. It definitely gives me a "greater picture character" with it telling them about the talisman and saying (or implying) that it will indirectly help with finding the black thingy and then literally leading, to what Yorick atleast seems to believe to be an unavoidable, doom fate for arthur (he'll get better 🙄) We definitely already saw some od the dangers of trying to use it this episode but it's helpful.

Its definitely a pushingly devoted servand type character, referring to Arthur as "my master' and John as "my king" and insisting on a name for an identity perfectly fitted to be what they want. It has Arthur and John on pretty equal footing in terms of loyalty instead of only serving one of them, saying it serves "the dies irae" their "combined force"

"Gently please" when arthur had to put it down was pretty cute.

I think Yorick is vying for a top three spot in my favorite malevolent characters with Kellin rn. His skeleton charm and um actually personality have captivated me
