Hey do you think that the reason Till is constantly so angry with himself is that he lost his mom but he never learned why. And no one ever bothered to tell him what really happened so he always blamed himself and he was taken away from her so young he barely remembers anything. And he barely consciously remembers her face anymore but every time he looks in the mirror he recognizes her face because he's the spitting image of his mom and can't help but feel a pang of love and recognition and despair and anger all at once. And he never can fully understand where these emotions really come from. No? Okay.

[astoria-rese]

ok we’ve see the parallels between the two already but what if I told you we had a THIRD parallel

ok maybe not but I find it interesting that the one hand Till is able to reach is the one he lets go

[ide4m4chine]

The way that Ivan was the kind of love that Io prayed for their son to have. The way he loved freely and without bounds and gave an unconditional love to Till, no matter what happened he would always love Till and be by his side. Io's prayers were answered.

In a way Ivan was like a guardian angel. No matter what, there would always be someone there to make sure Till was loved.

If there was any purpose to Ivan's guardianship it would be, "Never forget that you are adored."

Ivan had never experienced love before. Usually, his crushes were short and fleeting, but with Till… It was different. Ivan thought throughout his entire life, his sister would be the only person to truly understand him. But when Till came along, he made Ivan feel new to the language that made up his entire being. Like translating text over and finding nuances to words you never would have known beforehand. Until someone took a close look at you and appreciated you in full. After only a few months together, Ivan doesn’t remember where he began or where Till ended anymore. They were emulsified.

Everyone thinks Till and Ivan are dating, which is impossible when Till is in love with Mizi. Hijinks Ensue.

Im on the art drugss

[theboredhooman]

sometimes I wish I could actually draw or edit or be creative in general...I've been thinking about Till and Io with that song "mama's boy" that was trending on TikTok a while ago 😭

[mirrorcatcreditcard]

I just am curious why the fandom thinks Io should be referred to with she/her when they have no such pronouns attached to them. Calling Io Till's mom is understandable because that was the role they played in caring for him, but why are we feminizing a gender neutral person again? The original comic does not specify Io's gender. They're also flat chested from what I can observe in the comic. And Luka has gorgeous eyelashes, so don't tell me that the eyelashes make the gender of a person.

Fandom, give me answers why you're doing this, and I hope it's not erasure enabling.

till’s mom has Donald Trump ear im so sorry

[bluemoonscape]

Actually devastated by the central theme of the Io and Till comic.

Io loved him and yet she knew she couldn’t protect him. She couldn’t keep him. In this world, she doesn’t have the luxury of keeping something as precious and fleeting as Till. He’s a tool and she is his maker. She brought him into a world where she fears he will only suffer. And Till has suffered. Till has suffered so much.

But Io wanted him to be loved. Prayed that someone could ever possibly love her baby as much as she did because she knew one day she couldn’t offer him love anymore. All a mother can hope for is that someone will love you like you deserve when I’m gone.

And someone did.

Someone loved Till. Someone protected him. Someone’s entire life was driven by love for her baby.

Someone on Twitter pointed out that Ivan’s name means “gift of God.”

Ivan was Io’s gift from whatever being she desperately prayed to.

Ivan didn’t think he mattered to anyone, but look.

He was everything Io ever hoped and begged the universe for for her child.

“Are we trying to match the living room?” Till looks at Sua for confirmation. It makes Ivan raise a brow, but it doesn’t bother him. More like makes something itch at the back of his mind, he thinks is just normal poutiness of not getting any attention from his lover. He doesn’t want to think about it too much, or it would worry him when it was clearly nothing. He was just being possessive. Or maybe Till had made him spoiled from all the times he’d plant himself at his hip. Their morning activities made him especially needy, like he’d somehow wilt and die without Till there reminding him he’d catch him when he fell.

Spring break brings spring cleaning… and other things.

I'm still hung up on this

Every character that has died in Alien Stage so far has all gotten a comic from their own perspective.

Sua got one where she wants to tell her 'sister' that she found paradise in the hellish place.

Ivan compares his love with Sua's and thanks Till for being the victim for his shallow feelings.

Hyuna makes sense of her love for Luka, and tell him to take his time solving her puzzle.

All of them got to tell their perspective in some way.

...Except Till.

From start to finish, he never had interviews done, he never interacted much with other and just never...spoke.

The only time we ever see him outside of the videos in in the comics from other POV's.

His own death comic was not done in perspective. It was done in his mother's.

And Io loved her son. She cherished him and wanted him to find his happiness wherever he went.

But she never truly knew him. He was snatched away from her far too early for her to ever know him.

Till is a character who we, as an audience, only know from surface observation and the thoughts of others. We have no idea of what was actually going on in his head.

We have ideas for everyone else who are dead, except Till...

...WHICH IS WHY IN THIS ESSAY, I WILL PROVE TILL IS ALI- [gunshot]
