A prevent theory thing I have that I get remined of whenever someone makes a parallel with a hollowhead and Alan is that every one of the hollowheads have a bit of Alan inside of them just from being made by him. They are all so much like him in so many different ways. Weather they like it or not.
As you do put something of yourself in any artwork you make
Their is something about that. I want to do *something* with that theme and idea but I have no idea what so I’m just gonna give it to you cus you seem like you would like it.
I’ve actually theorized for a while that Orange is sort of an unintended avatar/‘sona for c!Alan.
It’s why he came to life when Alan hadn’t intended him to live.
It’s why Orange seemed to know so much about the human world outside the computer despite only having just been born (why would he know that calling 911 when it wasn’t a real emergency would get Alan in trouble?? how would any stick know that? Why does his first attempt to fight back involve sabotaging Alan’s social life?) while understanding comparatively little about the computer he’s actually on (he’s instantaneously familiar with the art program in a way that he isn’t with anything else on the desktop, unlike Chosen and Dark before him who don’t need to take any time to understand how anything works).
It’s why they have similar strengths/flaws when it comes to solving/escalating conflict.
It’s why Orange is the only one of Alan’s sticks who’s communicated with text-speech.
tl;dr DJ commented in an AvG video that Orange is basically just Alan in miniature and I went “okay but what if actually though” XD
But that aside, I’m curious about the other three handdrawns now. What of their creator have you noticed in Alan’s other sticks?
#animator vs animation#using my theory about Orange in the NGD au#unfortunately neither POV character is aware of it so it’s an aspect of the worldbuilding that won’t be explained to the reader#at least not in the main fic. maybe in supplementary material#either way though it’ll still have plot significance despite not being explained#it informs Orange’s character in that au a bit
