#spy x family predictions

[fijiwater33]

So I believe Damian will believe what Anya said after testing it out. I see it happening in either another action arc for the Eden kids where they both need to be silent for them to be safe, but they still have to communicate in a tap your nose for yes strategy. Or in a not as high stakes sport arc for another star, where Anya makes a game winning goal because she hears from Damian the strategy he has in his head that he hopes she hears.

But hey only time will tell.

I adore Spy x Family. I’ve been following it since the first couple of chapters were released. It’s adorable and it can sucker punch you right in your heart’s solar plexus and you will thank it. Chapter 95 came out this morning, and I decided to try my hand at predicting what’s going to happen next chapter.

Spoilers under the cut:

Just some brief context for those who don’t follow it: it’s the end of term school dance, and a good chunk of these first-graders are politically savvy. Anya and Damian have each gathered a number of potential dance partners. Anya would like to dance with Damian to ensure world peace. Damian is a tsundere. Damian’s besties, Emile and Ewen, have decided that the best way to wingman for their bro is to hold their version of The Bachelor. The chapter ends.

Here are Anya’s four potential dance partners. Only one has a name:

Twilight, because of course he is, rates the four boys in terms of potential sources of intelligence. Arnold Crowley is a B tier source, the unspecified Hyatt boy is a C+, and then he notes that the other two boys are B and C tier respectively. If I had to guess, the Hyatt boy is probably the first one to have asked Anya to dance, and I circled him in green. The boy with glasses circled in blue is probably the B tier while the boy with the Naruto grin circled in red is probably the C tier one.

My guess for chapter 96 is that Anya will participate in The Bachelor Jr™️ until one of the first four boys references Bondman, her favorite show in-universe. Little miss “Let me smack the fuck out of the fake bomb that only I know is fake to fuck with Damian, and guess I’ll save everyone using my ESPR powers to my advantage,” has the impulse control of a coked out squirrel running across a busy freeway. She’s probably 5 years old and is the only Eden cast member to routinely act like a child, she would ultimately choose to rave about her favorite show than try her hand at ensuring world peace. My money is that red boy will win. He seems the most on her level of “I’m here for a good time, and to the dismay of these snobs, a long time.”

Ultimately, it doesn’t matter who she chooses, just that Damian feels that it wasn’t him, and Damian will once again pronounce the whole dance as stupid (which sounds right for a 6-7 year old boy) and stalk off. I think Demetrius will reappear (probably sneaking away from the 8th grade dance as many middle schoolers are wont to do) and the two brothers will have a talk of sorts. Twilight, while in disguise, will hang around in the shadows to eavesdrop. The two brothers will talk until Damian mentions their father, to which Demetrius will shut down and storm off again. The chapter will end with Twilight learning that Donovan Desmond is distant to both his sons and question the viability of Plan B: the Friendship Scheme, or maybe Operation Strix as a whole.

Yall don’t think I have a type, right? 🧐 //sarcasm

Needed a dose of them

Calling it now, I’m making the prediction that Donovan Desmond also has Anya’s mind reading ability. The way Anya was a test subject is still a unresolved plotline unbeknownst to the cast beside Anya. The way that he is extremely paranoid and recently stopped making public/social appearances. The way he has symmetrical scars on both sides of his head. 

The way he is able to work with and around Loid’s introduction. The way that Anya fell asleep right before this entire scene so she couldn’t be there to read his mind confirming that he’s reading Loids mind. 

Loid projects his inner thoughts and actions constantly, Anya takes advantage of this. A spy isn’t much of a threat to a mindreader and Donovan was just standing there as Loid secretly revealed himself.

The only thing is if Donovan does have anya’s ability. Why is Loid able to get out of this encounter scot free and nothing happens after? Is Loid going to be used to accidently uncover all those that work for WISE?

[schwirrymartz]

Anya's face this chapter be like 😌🤨😯😦🤩

[shiuefha]

Wait, what if the next chapter will be about the Quintet spending their vacation together with Demetrius as their babysitter?

Well, Melinda probably will take both of her sons to go somewhere to spend the vacation together (rather than seeing their busy father, Donovan). Demetrius doesn't really have friends so he doesn't invite anyone, but I can see that Damian will invite both Emile and Ewen, while Melinda asks Yor's permission to bring Anya with them. Of course, Anya just wants to go with them if they invite Becky as well, so yeah...

Now we just need to wait and see.

So I've just read L's sxf liveblog that covers Twilight's past. And my heart broke to million pieces just like the first time I read the chapter 😭😭

But it got me thinking.

Storytelling wise, Yor's past will also be similarly heart breaking. And despite we already have little snippets of Yor's backstory, we actually haven't had any clear idea of how Yor or Briar siblings past went.

Before chp 62 is published, all we have regarding Twilight's past is just a story of his mother's lullaby and how safe he felt in his mother's arm.

Take notice at how this can be considered as one "happy" memories of [redacted] that Twilight was willingly share towards Yor.

When chp 62 came, we finally know how "rare" this happy memory of Twilight is. And that his past were full of hardships and anger and vengeance until he finally found new "better" goals when he joins WISE.

Now if we compare the situation with snippets coming from Yor, we first have a scene of Yor wilingly share her past to Loid

Take notice that this is also one of the "happier" memories coming from Yor's satisfaction towards Yuri's achievements. Yor is seen complimenting Yuri, and The Briar siblings looks happy.

Several other snippets of Yor's past come from Yuri's memories:

Take notice how in these memories all we have is the bright - always cheerful - always happy - smiling Yor. The smile that can brightened the world but even Yuri himself (and us fans) know and notice how Yor must have hiden her burden and thoughts alone. Which is one of the reason Yuri wanted to quickly become a capable man so he can return all the favor.

We know that both Twilight and Yor are very similar in never letting others know what burden they were thinking. They are so used to keep it hidden, that the only times we know they are having a deep thoughts, the only times they let it shows in their faces are only when they are alone:

Those dead eyes..... I can't...... 😭😭😭

When will this two learn to share whatever burden in their minds?? 😭😭😭

Anyway, nobody expected it when Twilight's past suddenly come to us in chp 62. Especially not after a silly second Tornitrus disaster.

We will never knew when will Yor's past came to us.

But we can be sure it will also break our heart. 💔💔💔

Tbh, I can't wait till Endo do that.

Oh, and when Anya's past came??? I'll be sure to be broken beyond repair. Because it is one thing to read or make or imagining the angsty past of the parents. But angsty children story??? 😭 Idk how to handle that.

[lavalamp-juice]

Oh uh before the next chapter comes out a prediction:

I believe since Henderson is talking about pretty serious stuff he is talking to an adult about it, so not Damian and his buddies.

that probably leads to a coworker...or

a psychiatrist!

[mareposie]

As the Spy xFamily fandom's official prophet, I declare that my "Visiting Yor's childhood village" headcanon shall happen !

[fijiwater33]

Alternate prediction for the test results. Anya does not get a Stella for best score in classical language, and Damian gets another for History. However! Anya gets a star for most improved because the classical language score boosted her rank more than anyone else. So Anya will still be in Damian’s class, and Loid will be proud. Meanwhile Damian is going to be jealous that Anya will get praise and attention from her father for something his would call a meaningless achievement

Just knowing how most mangas troll their audience, I highly doubt that we’re going to get an identity reveal in the next chapter where Yuri finds out that Loid is Twilight.

But even with that in mind…there’s still a small part of me that can’t help but think about how intense that would be if it actually does happen!

Like, think about it! We know that Yuri has it out for Twilight because he deems that spy a threat to the country and consequently, his sister’s safety. And he has it out for Loid too because of how protective he is of his sister! So if Yuri finds out that Twilight has been undercover as Loid and thus, has simultaneously been directly putting her life at risk and actively deceiving her both about who he is and, as far as he’s aware, how he feels about her to trick her into being in love with him for the mission? He would go apeshit!

But I also think that Yuri would at least take a moment to pause and think about how killing Twilight would affect his sister. Either by his own volition or through Loid pleading with him to stop and think it through. Because while Twilight is actively deceiving his dear sister, as far as he’s aware, Yor loves him. So just like with Anya in the bus hijacking arc, he doesn’t care too much about what happens to Anya for Anya’s sake, but he does care about what happens to Anya for Yor’s sake. He knew that if Yor lost Anya she would be devastated. Because to his knowledge, the love Loid has for Yor is a lie, but the love Yor has for Loid is true and real. So losing Loid would break Yor’s heart, and the last thing Yuri Briar would ever want is to be the cause of his dear sister’s broken heart.

So I think for that reason alone, Yuri might let Twilight go if he found out he was Loid. Not let him get away completely, but I think he would make some sort of a deal to keep his identity a secret from the SSS for however long he feasibly can in order for him to break things off with Yor in a way that hurts her the least, and then he’ll go apeshit on him!

And honestly, I feel like Loid would probably agree to those terms too. Because as much as he tries to deny it and fight it, he does care deeply for Yor and Anya. He dreads what will happen to them once his mission is complete. And he also dreads something terrible befalling them because he’s put their lives at risk by being with them. So I think he would also be more than happy to work with Yuri if it means he can limit the emotional carnage that would befall Yor and Anya by him leaving.

And it’s for that reason, that I think what is likely to happen in the next chapter, is Twilight pulling his punches with Yuri. Because yes, the mission comes first and he has to take out whoever he has to in order to protect his identity to continue Operation Strix. But he does really care about Yor. He knows how close she and Yuri are. They’re each other’s only family. And so losing him would hurt her, badly. And he already knows he’s going to have to hurt her by dismantling their fake family once the mission is over. So if she lost that and Yuri, she would be completely alone and heartbroken. And I think the knowing that, would make him falter or hold back in some way when fighting Yuri.

And I think that when Twilight’s worst fear comes true and he lets his feelings get in the way of the job, he will falter, and leave some sort of a bread crumb behind for Yuri that connects Twilight to Loid.

So you know how in the first episode Twilight says "I figured out why I hate the sound of children crying. It's because I end up remembering my own childhood" and at first I was like seriously it took you all this time to figure it out??? but then I thought that hey it's not like his job allowed him any time to spend with kids especially young ones so maybe he had listened to so little crying over his years as a spy - esp from kids that it wasn't his place to comfort, while when Anya was crying in his arms he was literally brought to the point of offering her comfort via reassurance and a soft pat on the back - that he never put so much thought into that. But again, with Anya crying in his arms and him feeling so overwhelmed he actually comforted her (or at least did the best his emotionally detached self could) because there was a part of him that felt RESPONSIBLE for her... It was a long moment that he couldn't extract himself from, with a girl he was already feeling responsible for, so all that combined had him have this revelation about himself.

So a) bro was so detached from his own feelings that he'd genuinely believed he hates kids and their crying instead of thinking "I just don't want them to suffer like I did" and b) this mission forces him to experience this - a crying kid for whom he is responsible for - over and over and over again. That's not hurting me at all, nope :)

I know this ship has an extremely low chance of becoming canon, but as a multi-shipper I was just wondering if anyone else is amused by the idea of shipping Franky and Yuri? I'm not sure I'll ever do anything with it, but I'll admit that I have this fic idea about them that starts with them running into each other at the Forger's home and Yor introducing Franky to Yuri as Loid's best friend. This leads to Yuri attempting to get revenge on Loid for stealing his sister by trying to steal his best friend.
