#yeah if you ever see saeran with a trope of some kind that's oddly specific

I've seen so many ppl write that Unknown likes having Mc sit on his lap but has this ever happened in-game or is this smthn everyone just agrees on lol

It cannot happen in the game because your time with him as his would-be assistant isn't covered the same way it is with Ray. You wind up with a Bad Ending red screen before you're dragged to Mint Eye. So, basically, I'm the one that started writing those snippets all about Unknown using the MC as a weighted blanket. This isn't canon because we know nothing about Unknown's Assistant.

This came to me one day in two ways. 1) Unkown wants you to feel afraid of him and what better way to torment you than to show you his work? Why not make you watch the next person go into the damn apartment like you were supposed to? Why not scare you with what's to come for them? That's the kind of person he is. Good luck dealing with that. He wants you to be frightened.

2) Unknown struggles with dissociative states. Do you know what can keep you grounded? A weighted blanket. Sensory help can be critical to keeping you on Earth when you feel weightless. Not that he's ever going to admit that he finds the pressure of having you by his side helpful in any way... but it adds to his fear tactics and power play to make you squirm.

If you combine the two of these, it adds more facets to Unknown as a person. There's a reason he's not a romanceable route, so when you write about him in that way, you have to find the means to see where he's vulnerable and how you can fit between the lines to reach this man who is otherwise unreachable.
