My brain has once again decided to get attached to a character that had AT MAX 15 minutes of screen time and has barely any information on them at all. Why do I do this to myself?

That one Arthur and entity pair dying immediately after opening the book, then dying again immediately after stepping into the Dark World is hilarious. Boy failure x boy failure enemyship, I'm starting a fan club for them I love them

Here’s what’s in Essex, MA so far, and I tried the little logo outside of LA a couple days ago (then got intimidated and realized I’ve never done pixel art before and gave up) but hey there’s still good space in Essex if anyone else wants to join :D

Is anyone doing a malevolent drawing on wplace????

[unnamedcorvid]

I saw someone had drawn a little John Doe near Arkham, MA (North of Boston) and gave him a little Arthur to follow. When I came back someone had drawn a little heart

[unnamedcorvid]

relistening to 54 and I just realized while Arthur's talking about Jack and the Beanstalk and mentions "our friend, the butcher" there are some banjo notes that I think are Peggy Gordon being played very quietly

[unnamedcorvid]

Some religious dreamland goon: I said that if you missed this mortal so much you should fill a cathedral with hymns

John: [misunderstood that as cathedral of him's] uh,

[unnamedcorvid]

Are they capable of acting normal

[unnamedcorvid]

so 54 dropped which means i can finally share the line that, for two months, has been making me uncontrollably sob every time Ive thought about it.

[unnamedcorvid]

Do you think the Dollmaker has any extra Arthur parts?

I think they should. Not enough though

[unnamedcorvid]

Okay I have some thoughts about John hunting down and killing all the alternate Arthurs

While I’d love to think he did it to make Arthur stronger, to make him a god, I don’t think that’s what had been going through his head at the time. he makes such a point to talk about how the Dark World fucks with your head, your emotions, stripping away all the good parts of you and twisting you into the worst version of yourself. I think he was doing it out of his feelings for Arthur, but after the Dark World twisted them into something befitting such a place.

What if he did it out of obsession. as he split with Arthur, as he fought the King, he did everything he could to cling on to the memory of Arthur, keep his face in his mind, as a reminder of the humanity and life and what good he had. But after he was sent to the Dark World, it got twisted. He could only think of Arthur, couldn’t get the image of him out of his head, needed him, needed to have him. And so he hunted him down, searched for that face he couldn’t get out of his mind, until he found him. or, found one of him. when he looked closer, he saw this wasn’t right. this didn’t match the Arthur he knew so well. And in his rage (and despair and loneliness? twisted forms of love?) he killed him. and the hunt continued. Over and over and on and on, hunting down an Arthur just to see it wasn’t His Arthur, killing him and adding his bones to his citadel, the symbol of his growing power. his regression to the King, throne and all.

what if Arthur being the most powerful because he’s the only remaining version is just a byproduct, something good that came out of what John sees as his worst moments?

[unnamedcorvid]

So I think narratively it’s probably that John was just killing Arthurs because the darkworld took any positive and negative emotions and focused all of his rage on the man who put him there the second time, but I think it would be interesting for someone to play with the idea of John finding versions of Arthur because he feels dependent on Arthur to exist, and then when that Arthur isn’t his perfect idea of Arthur, breaking them for being wrong. Just a concept. Just an idea.

[unnamedcorvid]

Well I guess there goes my headcanon that John slowly started to forget what Arthur's reflection looked like in the Dark World until it was a blurry mess since they hadn't really seen themselves in a mirror since before the pits so what he saw out of his eyes and what he remembered didn't line up and so he longer he was there the more messed up those memories got! A big reason why "What If I Forget Your Face" is in my John playlist and Malevolent playlist is that and I was Just About to Add "Who Is She? (reprise)" to at least one playlist based off that headcanon (and also the potential idea that Kayne shapechaged to look like Arthur during the deal to drive home how far John's fallen) and !!! No he found multiple other Arthurs. Over and Over and Over. He hunted and killed and ripped out their bones and made a cathedral out of them. (note- I like how he calls it a cathedral not a citadel) and. ... Wait actually I can still have the headcanon. Different Arthurs are bound to look slightly different. And these weren't his Arthur (oh the ourthurchestra was just a kick to the face for John wasn't it). Was the scar below Arthur's right eye more like this one or this other one? This one has a mole on his left thigh; did Arthur? Can he trust any of these?

I am. I'm having . I'm processing this reveal of information. It's . It will take time to process. And then I can theorize. But also. I need to talk to put some thoughts outside myself.

THIS

you know?

[unnamedcorvid]

How does one describe how bad of a sign it is that Arthur’s body will be provided by a Dollmaker, making him a doll? He is a body to be manipulated by malevolent forces once more, woven in their webs and pulled where they will.
