SO. TO KICK OFF THE WEEK OF SPECULATION BEFORE THE UPDATE DROPS.

last night i had a bit of a Revelation. literally. i borderline woke up in a cold sweat with this realization. the way i lunged for my laptop to scream at friends... ough. lets get into it

so. i do believe I've made a couple of theory posts about Barnaby not being quite as receptive to his and Wally's "forced" best friendship as Wally - since the show wrote them to be friends instead of it happening naturally. i thought it might be a point of tension for Barn. i thought a lot.

YES SO I'M TOSSING (almost) ALL OF THAT OUT THE WINDOW!

the bios state Barnaby as Wally's best friend multiple times over. it had to be regularly reinforced. their colors were chosen to mark them as friends.

but Barnaby - presumably - can't see the bios, he wouldn't know the scripts. the friendship would be natural from his perspective. how would he know otherwise? even if the relationship started out synthetic, i don't doubt that it became genuine. in the context of their world and perceptions, realistically speaking Barnaby probably wouldn't sense anything wrong.

the reminders to be best friends weren't for Barnaby.

they were for Wally.

i'm starting to suspect that Wally is Barnaby's best friend, but Barnaby isn't Wally's. i think that Wally's "best friend" is Home - or at least Wally has a closer connection to them / Home is more important to Wally than anyone else is.

i remember reading this livestream trivia (from theneighborhoodwatch's doc, if you haven't their resources yet what are you even doing?):

and i assumed it was for Barnaby's side of the relationship. but it's not, is it? it's Wally's? and it makes too much fucking Sense! it fits! i can see it perfectly! i can feel things slotting together in my mind due to this shift in perspective, and i'm scared

Barnaby probably thinks the relationship is natural, just like how he thinks he's a real person in a real world. Wally probably knows that the relationship is a role, just like how he knows he's a puppet in a false reality.

that leaves me wondering how much of it is genuine on Wally's side. i don't doubt that they really are friends, but how deep does that connection go? in the interview, Wally sounded excited/proud about having a best friend, but how much came from a place of feeling, and how much came from a place of Fulfilling The Role? how much of it is performative? how much of it is a mask?

i've been seeing everything differently. Barnaby poses for Wally the most because he has good balance and is good at staying still, not because of favoritism or because he's Wally's best friend. in the 14 (15 including the hidden halloween) audios, Barnaby consistently seeks out Wally and checks in on him. Wally seems more casual about their relationship than Barnaby is.

i'm worried that Wally values Home & You/Us over Barnaby. that Barnaby is second or third place in Wally's heart. that Wally means more to Barnaby than he means to Wally. after all, only one of them needed their relationship to be reinforced on a seemingly regular basis.

i'm confident that Wally cares about / loves Barnaby, but the question is how much? to what extent?

In a 80 or 90s movie setting, what would Yata be considered as? Like the sporty type or a nerd or something?

 My first thought was sporty type, but if we’re talking like stereotypical 80s/90s high school movie that wouldn’t really work for Yata since he’s not a mean jock. Though since he’s into skateboards he could be more the ‘rebellious’ kind of character, he’s sporty but he doesn’t like snooty jocks and probably hangs out with the stoners at the skate park all the time. I feel like Yata wouldn’t work as the nerd because he isn’t that smart (Fushimi on the other hand is 100% the stereotypical nerd character who Yata would have to come save from being shoved in a locker) but he’s not a popular kid either, I feel like he’d be more a side character in that sort of movie. A tertiary character might have a crush on him but he doesn’t get a lot of screen time and most of what he has is either smiling nervously or doing skateboard tricks in the background. Also depending on what part of the 90s we’re talking about poor Yata would probably end up with the cringiest dialogue because he’s supposed to be using all the latest slang and makes his character immediately incredibly dated. He walks around in the baggiest clothes and probably takes his skateboard to class, everyone seems fairly friendly with him but at lunch he’s only eating with his nerdy best friend. He could probably be a support character for the lead, likes he’s at table with the main characters and gets to unknowingly dispense simple advice even though he’s not involved in the main plot (while Fushimi sits there glaring because the stupid main characters are ruining his alone time with Misaki).

So far I think Niffy and Baxter is the only ship I like and care about. And it hasn't even happened yet :{

I like Charlie and Vagatha since they're already an established thing, but other ships I don't really care or even dislike and don't wan't time wasted on it when more interesting things are happening.

Vox and Alastair is funny - I want to see their backstory, but don't wan't to see drama drag on more than necessary.

Alastor and Lucifer - I think fan art is cute, but don't really care about their rivalry or possible relationship.

Pentious and Cherri is alright, but was kind of thrown in haphazardly.

I just flat out don't care about Angel and Husk.

I don't care about Vox and Val. I think Val in general shouldn't exist and has too much importance thrown his way for a nothing character.

i think one of my favorite things about chai is that yeah he’s a scott pilgrim/marty mcfly/ben tennyson/generator rex but instead of being solely a power fantasy or the chosen one or some guy you can project on he’s a character that can be enjoyed by anyone, whether you like the previous kinds of characters or whether you just want to watch a lovable idiot smash things with the power of friendship and a trash guitar
