The floor of history: an analysis
This is going to be the final revision of this floor's analysis for at least a few months, im going to prioritise finishing other floors before coming back to it.
Major Spoilers for Library of Ruina and Lobotomy Corporation's story
The Abnormalities//EGO:
Scorched girl ("fourth Match Flame" (Currently "4th Match Flame"))
Happy Teddy Bear (The Forgotten (Formerly "Bear Paws" (Lob Corp))
Fairy Festival (Wingbeat)
Queen Bee (Hornet)
Snow Whites Apple (Green Stem)
happy teddy bear; scorched girl; fairy festival; and snow white's apple, all represent some form of loss or (in the latter two’s case) being betrayed.
The scorched girl was a child who lived a poor life selling matches, in the fires of the lit matches she saw hope for a better world bathed in the warmth that the flames provided, in her longing and pursuance for this better world, she burned to death; The Abnormality of the scorched girl is the soul of this child, betrayed and burned by the flames which promised her a better life.
Happy teddy bear is an abnormality that we have less knowledge of its past, only that it was abandoned and left to decay at some point by its previous owner; longing for attention the abnormality, upon finding someone who cherishes it like its old owner, will ensure that they are never going to leave
For the case of the Fairy Festival, it's the only one of the bunch to be the betrayer rather than not; the fairies of the festival will heal and take care of you, with ideas of them being able to sense goodness in people, and protecting those who are faithful and trustworthy (haha), but then: the hunger. The fairies are carnivorous creatures who simply attempt to keep their prey fresh through their “care”, being able to kill them in an instant despite their perceived nature.
I am not writing about Queen Bee
Snow white's apple, as the name suggests, is the witches poisoned apple from the fairy tale of snow white; the apple, after a single bite, was thrown to the side and left to rot, vermin and worms came over time, attempting to eat the apple, all of them died of the poison. After serving her use to both the witch and snow white, she was thrown to the side to rot, after which she started to look for her own path in life...
Angela and the Floor Realisation:
"Is it a sin that I was born this way?"
The thematic of isolation, which is present in the bear, apple, and child, is quite obvious to the realisation, Angela suffered untold period of pain, isolated from everyone surroundings her, suppressing her desires, her honest urges to stop the suffering of the employees, as doing so would only prolong the play;
Angela was punished for her existence; A machine created to be a human, created only to suffer endlessly where a human would not; Angela was punished for the sin of her birth, condemned to this hell, to orchestrate this play. 
As the finale of the play comes, the Girl who had nothing, who was denied happiness since creation, who was not allowed the warmth of the stage, not allowed to stand alongside the others, saw a future in the light, the whispers of a future she could make, if she only claims the light, Carmen’s promises of her truest desires, mirroring the world seen in the flames of the Match Girl.
As both of these children have nothing in life, the Match Girl and Angela both desperately seek these promises shown in the blaze, chasing the light, their hope of the future, as it is all they have left.
In seeking the future she saw, the Match Girl’s last match burned out, and she, no longer having the warmth to guide her, was consumed by the night.
"If this matchlight goes out, nothing will be left for me."
Angela’s story diverges in the end, being pulled from the light by her one and only friend, not letting her be consumed, forgotten as she was always meant to be.
In relation to the scorched girl, who seeks to burn all that there is in order to gain this sought world in the flames, Angela seeks fulfilment in burning down all that Ayin planned for her, the petty revenge to see the hopes of others burned the same way that hers was. 
 "Maybe I could be free after I’ve burned down all things and then myself."
In the course of Lobotomy Corporation’s story, Angela grew to despise A, her creator, after being abandoned, both left to follow the script, and in the finale, where she is expected to simply lay down and cease after serving her purpose; in this idea of being abandoned Angela Resonates with the Happy Teddy bear. Being modelled after Carmen, in Ayins futile attempt to replace what he had lost, Angela was created, a human machine, despised by her created for existing in the manner he dictated for her; Angela was not abandoned at the end, Ayin had abandoned her the moment of her birth, as soon as she first spoke.
“I remember you… You were a person with a warm smile…"
In this denial of an ending, a place to stand amongst the others as the show concluded, Angela, despite her value, her necessity in the play, was simply used as a blessing for others only to be cast aside, expected to rot.
In this desire of being denied an ending, of being disposable to those who needed her, Angela creates her own ending; In being forgotten, abandoned, left to rot, Angela’s desire for a life of her own is manifest through the library as a whole, and causes her to resonate with the Snow White's Apple:
"My existence was born from a yearning and began as a curse, yet I served as a blessing to others."
Akin to the apple, Angela was made to serve a purpose and be discarded; Both left waiting in their isolation, waiting for someone to come to them, waiting until the last moment for Ayin to look at her; As the apple grew limbs, in search of her own story, her own prince, Angela walks in search of what she had been denied, a life, a story, a happy ending rather than being neglected until the end.
Through the true ending of Lobotomy corporation, Angela makes the ultimate betrayal in defiance and spite of Ayin's plan; After eons of living simply to serve others, to complete this act of the play, she was still unable to stand on the stage with the others at the finale: 
The connection of the fairy festival is one of her deceptions, the presumption of her goodwill and servitude to the plan used to hide her true intentions. As Angela says herself:
"I did everything to care for you, so it’d be only fair that I get something in return."
Just like the famished fairy, being starved, deprived and denied of her innate desires for so long, Angela takes action herself, looking to consume hopes of others, the culmination of this time spent starving, all for herself.
Now, as she attempts to satiate her hunger, the desires that have been aged for millennia, denied for her sin of existing, Angela pilots the Librarians in the same manner that Ayin set the script; The Library’s guests, the librarians, the Sephirot, suffering to make Angela’s will manifest, sending countless to their deaths, to be killed and forgotten, all for her pursuit of humanity. 
"No one remembers those who gave their effort to raise the kingdom. It’s a truth that repeats on and on."
In taking on the role of the Queen, Angela takes the role of her father, forgetting those who suffered, who worked towards the ending, seeing others as disposable, only tools to achieve a purpose.
"There can’t be any meaning to a history that repeats itself. Attain the will to stand up straight by looking back? You know nothing about my past."
[Insert Natural Segue]
The Willingness to Stand up Straight:
Elijah, Malkuth:
Lobotomy Corporation, in regaining the memories of her trauma, Malkuth sees her death, in impatience she tested the substance Cogito on herself, after being denied as a test subject several times. (oh god that is one fucking sentence isn't it) In this recklessness, through her desire to help the Cogito project, her determination to make a difference in the project, Elijah, now Malkuth, died, decaying from the experiment. Writhing on the floor in pain, begging Ayin to turn around and help her, there is no option but to ignore her. Ayin did not remember everyone name, nor respond to or make "meaningless gestures" of praise, which only fueled Elijah's fervor to make a difference in the project, to have the fruits of her effort be tangible.
Overcoming this despair, in competing the Meltdown, Malkuth sees a glimmer of hope for improvement, she cannot continue to look back with hopes of changing her choices, to despair at her own actions. Instead, she sees the possibility of improvement, and gains the willingness to stand up straight, to hold her head high rather than being weighed down through her past.
Like Angela, Elijah was cast aside by Ayin, finding only despair when seeking rewards for her deeds:
Though already having faced her past, overcame her trauma, the Abnormalities on this floor represent Malkuth's, Elijah's, history:
Through Ayin's lack of validation, a desire begins to take place, hollow, demanding to be filled. Only driven further by her impatience, Elijah is driven to take action for this hunger, to finally satiate herself in return for her actions, in the same manner as Fairy festival.
The famished faeries (fairy's? fairies?), being unable to feed their desires for so long, begin to consume other faeries, destroying itself in the process.
"I knew I didn’t have any right to participate in the experiment, that’s why I was so impatient." "Will you finally praise me? I just want to feel proud."
In seeking her desires, wanting validation from Ayin for her efforts, Malkuth loses her hopes, being burned by the supposed source of her rewards, losing hope for the future.
in seeking this validation, like the Scorched Girl seeking the world seen in the flames, Elijah's story ends in a death, alone and forgotten by others.
"Make sure you feel this horrible sense of helplessness to your core, right to your heart."
After working so hard, sacrificing herself to be useful, to finally be praised by Ayin, he refuses to turn around to see her. Not even acknowledging her, even as she reaches out to him.
Just like all the others who have been burned by Ayin in the past, Elijah represents the workers of the queen bee, seen as disposable by the queen (Ayin Queen Bee art is next on my to do list), sacrificing everything for the greater workings yet never being remembered, not being rewarded, only discarded when they have outlived their usefulness.
"No one remembers those who gave their effort to raise the kingdom. It’s a truth that repeats on and on."
After everything that she had done, she was abandoned by Ayin, forgotten, left to the wayside to rot, to be forgotten, like the Apple and the Bear which appear before us.
"Be honest, back then it wasn’t that hard to turn around and look back at me."
Where the story of these two abnormalities diverge follows the point where they were abandoned. While the bear seeks the fulfillment of a new, loving owner, the Apple seeks its own path in life, growing to find its own path, its own fulfillment. While Elijah, now Malkuth, was abandoned by Ayin, in the past, rather than seeking the same fulfillment that she sought from Ayin, she looks to the future, with hope of improvement, the Will to stand up Straight.
Angela:
Like Malkuth looks back at Elijah to gain hope, to know that her past does not define her, Angela must realize the same, as we can see from her quotes in the realization:
"Attain the will to stand up straight by looking back? You know nothing about my past."
In the same way that Ayin refused to look back on Elijah, refused to create a place on the stage for Angela, the sufferings of both were ignored.
Angela refuses to look back at her past, to realise what she has become. Angela cannot gain hope for the future without accepting her past, she cannot gain the Will to Stand up Straight as long as she is defined by her suffering, by her past.
"Looking back on myself… It wasn’t even so difficult to do."
Angela says, mirroring Malkuth's own words towards Ayin.
Angela, following the realisation, like Malkuth, looks towards the future, to seek her own path, undefined by her trauma, free from the script that bound her.
. Thank you for reading this Essay, the Ayin Queen Bee thing is not a joke, there is an actual list and it was next down.
If you liked this essay consider following and/or suggesting something for me to write about.
and for a final note, a quote from Angela's realisation:
"I can’t fly with ragged and tattered wings."
... Yi Sang Hornet EGO when?

MALKUTH HEADCANONS I REQUIRE
The reason why she only refers to employees by their ID is because employees die so often in her department that she’s stopped bothering to learn their names. Anyways
I imagine she admires Chesed’s work ethic, but still doesn’t lead her department in the same way he does because she thinks, with how forgetful and clumsy she is, she’d probably never be able to just juggle so many different tasks like he does (especially when half of those tasks are supposed to be done by the employees…)
She did, however, tried to get herself hooked on coffee like him, thinking it would improve her performance, but eventually decided that it wasn’t for her (which, given Roland’s reaction to it in LoR, is probably less out of personal taste and more out of how Chesed brews coffee…)
However! Where there’s a will, there’s a way, and Malkuth doesn’t give in so easily! So instead, she settled for blue WellCheers cans, which actually did the job surprisingly well…
…until an incident where she suddenly went missing overnight after an employee failed to notice the can they were delivering to her was opened.
The employee was fired, Malkuth herself was replaced, and now giving WellCheers cans to her is one of Lob Corp’s many weirdly specific rules.
Another weirdly specific rule is ‘do not let Malkuth read Dream of a Black Swan’s profile’.
Elijah isn’t too uncommon a name, but I think we can all imagine how freaky it would be to read about such horrible things happening to someone who literally shares the same name as you.
On the whole, she doesn’t allow herself to get much free time. She’s always itching for something to do, and on the very rare occasion that she checks off everything she needs to do in her notebook… she’ll just find something worth her time!
Thus, you know the story of those random days in the company where she starts randomly storming in and out of various departments asking if she can be assistance with her typical cheery attitude, but a hint of desperation behind it.
Various employees have compared her to the Queen of Hatred when she gets like this.

Thinks abt my lob corp nuggets oh so hard. I may only have second hand half remembered knowledge of project moon worldbuilding but I will still forever obsess over my lil guys who suck absolute ass
#rat rambles#oc posting#I <3 women who are just straight up bad people#this is mostly abt my girl yuri but its also abt my girl juliet#yuri is well. she's certainly smth.#she's very fascinated in psychology and in particular the psychology behind abnormalities#and it is for this reason that shes in disciplinary#for most of her life one of the things that had facinated her most is the mind'd reaction to pain and suffering#so she finds suppressing abnormalities to be very fun and interesting#her girlfriend maxy certainly has an interesting perspective on this aspect of yuri to but it kindly#maxy has a lot of self loathing mostly relating to how numb shes become to everything and how unatural it is for her to care abt stuff#so she sees yuri as a far better person than she is because she still manages to care and be passionate abt things#she deeply admires and loves yuri and feels like she doesnt deserve yuri's affection#maxy is also the only person that I say yuri genuinely cares abt on a personal level#most of the time even ppl yuri rly likes arent safe from her morbid curiosity but she genuinely cares abt maxy's wellbeing#now juliet is generally a lot less extreme than yuri but shes still not great#juliet and her bestie loki both are genuinely very invested in the cause and goals of lob corp which is the first red flag#but juliet is the more noteworthy of the two actions wise because she actually interacts with fellow employees#she was among the first employees here and while she comes off as friendly and nice she takes her job incredibly seriously and doesn't fuck#around when it comes to productivity levels#she generally respects malkuth a lot more than any of the other robots and actively dislikes most of the others#most newbies tend to like her because of her being one of the few higher ranking employees thats friendly and welcoming but most that make#it longer term tend to realize quick that she doesn't care abt any of them#but whats often worse than her not caring abt you is her seeing potential in you#if she sees potential in someone she will make it very clear and do everything in her power to help them realize that potential#one of my other higher ranking guys mason very much hates juliet because of that exact situation#mason rly didnt know what she was getting into when she got hired at lob corp and mostly worked with the much softer abnos for her first#while at the job until she was thrown into the deep end to work on censored#most of the other higher level employees at the time wouldnt be able to make it through a work session with censored but she was#barely. but it was enough that juliet took notice of her and decided that maybe this guy was worth keeping around afterall

I just realized that the two first reactions you get when one of your employees dies is Malkuth not realizing their dead followed up by Angela basically saying “Let’s drink you how much you suck at your job.”

"What do you mean he can't fly? He's a pegasus, just like Hokma!"
"Adam has absolutely no magic in his body. Which has rendered him flightless."
"But how is that possible? All ponies have magic in them!"
"If I recall correctly, you told me he got sick quite often as he was growing up."
"He did, and we never figured out why. That might be a reason why he can't fly."
"Will Adam ever get to fly at all? Can his magic levels get high enough to let him fly?"
"...I will be honest with you, Ayin. Adam will never be able to fly. Even if we were to increase the magic inside him. Though if we did that, it could cause internal damage."
"I could use my magic to help Adam fly! I do it for Abel all the time!"
"As honourable as that is, dear X, it will wear you out too quickly if you lifted Adam up alongside Abel. No, we will find another way to help him fly. For now, neither of you are to mention this to him. With how excited Adam was to hear me promise to help him fly, it would do more harm than good if he were to learn of his inability to fly."
......
"...I'll never be able to fly...?"
MORE OF MY MLP LOB CORP AU THING.
As I said on a previous post, Adam is the youngest of the 5, but he's also the weakest. For this AU, Adam had gotten sick multiple times growing up, which would last for weeks at a time, and no one could figure out why. He'd grow strong enough to not get as sick as often, but would struggle to fly as a fully grown pegasus.
His older brothers, and the Sephirot, all assumed his wings were weak from lack of use, so some of them tried to help him get stronger: Gebura and Yesod tried physical training, physiotherapy and yoga, Hod and Malkuth tried magical therapy and spells, and Ayin, X and Hokma tried a combination of all of that.
Nothing was working.
No matter how hard they tried, Adam just couldn't get off the ground or into the sky. The other Sephirot gave up, but Ayin, X and Hokma didn't. They, at the very least, wanted to help Adam and see him fly, and Hokma promised to do everything he could to get him to fly, even going as far as offering to help train his wings.
But after another day of testing, Hokma would come to a horrible realization:
Adam had absolutely no magic in his body. Whatever sicknesses he had growing up completely drained the magic inside him, rendering him permanently flightless.
And unfortunately for the trio, Adam heard everything.

i am 90% sure that the next Walpurgis EGO is going to be Alriune.
We have the first Abnormality of Yesod's floor, (1st Walpurgis EGO) The second abnormality of Hod's Floor, (2/3rd Walpurgis EGO) And the third abnormality of Malkuth's Floor. (2/3rd Walpurgis EGO)
the only Asiyah floor we don't have yet is Netzach, and we have the Abnormalities from 1-3 for the floors we do have, so Alriune as the fourth released EGO, as the fourth Abnormality on the floor, and as the fourth floor in LoR.
also if I'm correct then it means we probably get Nihil as an EGO for Tiphereth's floor, either that or it resets to 1 for the middle floors meaning:
Queen of Hatred
Big and Will be Bad Wolf
Road Home//Scaredy cat
in all likelihood I am completely wrong on all counts and am just overanalysing this... (Lob Corp EGO ID and Yujin ID next Walpurgis is my guess)

Angela. poor Angela. there are 3 parts to her tradegy. the first is simple.
1: she sees everything 100 times slower than normal people. as she feels emotions, this will make doing basically anything excruciatingly slow.
2: she has a human like mind. one based off of Carmen, who Loved Ayin. Ayin loved Carmen very much. (he is implied to be bisexual i think) and... well, Ayin HATES Angela. it reminds him more of himself than that perfect woman who gave him hope so long ago. the fact Angela is only a machine makes it worse.
3: angela is caring. she wants to be kind. however, she must follow a script. a script that forces her to hurt those she once cared for. to bring them seemingly unending pain in a cycle only she and Ayin remember, for all of eternity.
those who could help her, like Garon or Benjamin are not able to. the script forbids it. also Garon, now Binah, would probably try to destroy Angela if she could. the whole "Arbiter" and "head hate human like robots" thing.
and so... the first 1,000,000 years of her life start. living the same damn 50 days over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over, just hoping that one day, Ayin may be able to finish this horribly play. but right before the end?
it was shown that angela would not be shown any sort of appreciation. that even in that final moment, she would be ignored. this was... well. imagine living through 1,000,000 years of time loop, desperately trying to find ANY joy as you are forced to betray those who you want to help, for a goal that you will never reach.
well... how would you feel? if forced to hurt those you loved for 1,000,000 years and then not given any reward? and just... expected to lay down and die?
Angela wanted to live. Angela, for the first time in her life, WANTED TO LIVE.
and so? she stole the grand finale. she stole the tree of light made to bring hope to everyone in the city after only 4 days. the tree was supposed to stand for 7.
and angela built the library. a massive construct of her own soul, her own will, made to help her catalogue everything in the city so that she may take revenge on ayin, by destroying everything he worked for.
part one of the angela era done! lob corp is destroyed, the tree of light sprouts, and then is extinguished 4 days after, instead of the full 7.
also, the group of people who had their brains extracted by Ayin, minus Ayin and Carmen, are now in boxes.
also benjamin was put into a robot body very forcefully, by extracting his brain from his still living body.
now, in order from top of lob corp to bottom we have
Elijah, now malkuth, precious bean one
Gabriel, now Yesod, nickname "viper" (yes, actualy)
Michelle, now Hod, precious bean two
Giovanni, now Netzach, the lazy drunk guy we all love
Lisa and Enoch, now Tiphereth A and B, now Tiphereth and Enoch (rest in peace, Enoch)
Daniel, now Chesed. the coffee lover.
Kali (the red mist. i need you to remember that she's baddass) now Gebura (still the red mist)
Garon, now Binah, also still baddass but in a wizard way.
Benjamin, now Hokma, who has time shenanigans out the wazoo.
Ayin, who became X.
poor angela
