#the first scene being ivan and till escaping from anakt garden

till’s pupils reflecting red only when he’s looking directly at ivan

#my ramblings #all the little details they put in #the metaphors with the red and the shooting stars #it makes me wonder if part of the reason why they specifically chose these scenes is because of freedom #the first scene being ivan and till escaping from anakt garden #the second being death. the ultimate freedom from alnst #and there’s that whole thing with an eye (with black lashes looking like ivan’s) being injected with something red #sorry. i’m still not over this #in fact i have more questions #alien stage #alnst ivan #alnst till #ivantill

what.... please elaborate i do not understand but i wish to....

So, I'm guessing you're asking about this post, where I speculate about Ivan's relationship with the dog-alien?

Here's a post where I talk about what "The Dog Alien Incident" is (or at least my interpretation of it).

(Long ramble/analysis/theory below!)

Now, this^^ was my interpretation of the scene before Round 6. But then Round 6 came out, and:

The MV shows Ivan seems to have some sort of relationship with the dog-alien. They definitely seem to have a deep level of trust. I mean, the alien is allowing Ivan to touch its teeth, and even going as far as LETTING IVAN LIE IN ITS MOUTH!? (Which like???? Go off I guess??? You do you??? But why would you want to??? He was tempting death at this point).

When I first saw this, I immediately jumped to conclusions and was like "Oh, he's insane, he's just like Luka, he planned this out, he was trying to kill Mizi-" because I was literally just recovering from the event which was Round 6.

But, now that I think about it, I don't think I stand by that theory anymore. I don't think Ivan would actively try to kill Mizi. I don't think he ever hated Mizi, as they've been shown to be quite friendly in their interactions, unlike Luka is with Hyun-woo.

(Would translate these properly if I knew Korean, but alas.. Maybe in the future, I'd actually love to learn the language-)

So, looking back at Ivan's relationship with the dog-alien, I think they were just friendly? Like, Ivan would just go hang out with the dog-alien whenever he wanted, just for some quiet time away from the other kids, since the place that the dog-alien(does it go by another name other than "dog-alien"??) resides seems to be secluded and hidden from the rest of Anakt Garden. I think it was just coincidence that Ivan found Till and Mizi together in that area (Mizi could have wandered off, perhaps to find Till, or Till was trying to follow her?). Ivan may have just stayed watching in the shadows just to see what would happen out of pure curiosity.

Another thing!

Ivan's friendship with the alien (as well as him being allowed to roam freely without a collar) could have benefitted him in allowing him to escape the Garden with Till. The alien seems to be a guard dog of some sort (which could explain why it attacked Till, or it could've been just attacking Till because why the hell not-), and if it trusted Ivan enough, it's not surprising if it would let Ivan (and Till) pass by it and out of the Garden without alerting the AG Guardians.

Long story short: Ivan's very weird, but not as batshit insane as our favourite mentally-and-physically ill blondie, Luka <3

Hope this explains everything..?

#My opinion on and interpretation of Ivan is all over the place #“Awww he's just a sad lil guy in love :(” #“Oh wait he's a little weird-” #“No I think he's just a depressed gay-” #“No wait wait he's FUCKED UP-” #“WAIT ACTUALLY-” #anyways he's such a Disney princess #Sings and communicates with animals #and put in pretty little outfits #Mizi even describes him as a prince at some point i think #alien stage #ivan alnst #alnst ivan #ivan alien stage #alien stage ivan #alnst #alien stage round 6 #toon talks #asks #ask #answered asks #thanks for the ask!
