episode 100, mr raven what the fuck
obviously since i'll be talking about episode 100 i'm going to just put it out there that if you haven't read episode 100 yet then do not read this. then again, this is all in vague reference to the episode and i'm mostly just using bits and pieces to back up my previous idea.
(this is taken from ep 99 pls chill i'm not dishing out spoilers)
anyways, if we continue to ep 100, we see MORE EVIDENCE FOR THAT WIERD DEER THING BEING THEO.
"and for you, especially" shouts to me specifically about this. as previously stated, i have the most insane and stupid thought that the weird deer-monster-bone-tree thing from episode one (you know what i'm talking about), is theo's spectre.
as stated before, the most compelling evidence i have for this is the fact that theo was known to hunt deer a lot, and the thing we see in episode one looks a lot like a deer skull, just with loads of red eyes placed into the cracks and such. and we know from the first episode that it seemed to flock towards lenore and annabel. or at least i think it sort of seems to go towards them.
and you, know i could've been wrong– except look at this from ep 100:
now, obviously the first part practically proves the fact something is following lenore, and that this something is (potentially!!!) theo's spectre. but i think what proves it more is what mr raven says next.
"close as a second shadow"
someone on tumblr (i cannot remember who) pointed out that annabel and lenore's like fates are almost reversed? and how lenore who once had nothing to loose now has everything, and annabel is vice versa. and you know, first of all, amazing take. delicious. fantastic. whoever this was, please please please make yourself known to me pookie i'm gna worship the ground you walk on because you've given me thoughts !!!
from this "second shadow" talk, i wonder if the idea of reversal spreads through more than just lenore and annabel's relationship. in life, theo was the star violinist whilst lenore was the accompanist, the piano player.
musically, lenore was his shadow.
of course, this is a very generalised take. as somebody who plays both piano and flute, i'm not going to go out and say that the piano player is just background noise when it's a duet, but more often then not the piano stands aside so that the violin (in these situations) can shine.
n life, lenore lives behind theo's shadow, and when he dies she's haunted by it.
when she looks in the mirror, she sees theo as she cuts her hair. she sees him everywhere. in his life, she was the the dark shadow that loomed– but in death he always behind her, always the dark looming figure that follows her. her guilt binds with his memory and forms that dark looming thought that nobody wants to discuss.
and so, to me, it makes perfect sense that this little deer-tree-bone-monster thing is theo.
but then, obviously, as i look at all of this, there is the glaring question of why in the first episode this monster looked like it really wanted to chomp on lenore and annabel's limbs. and you know, typically, siblings don't want to cannibalise each other.
i see your point, and i respond back with these three panels:
lenore goes on to explain that their bloodline has been plagued by madness, misfortune and death. then, take a look at what the raven says of how spirits "oft" are "driven to madness" by their desire for souls.
i think this connects, because idk i just think it does. could be totally wrong, but i think (???) theo (???) somehow escaped to try get back to lenore and go to the threshold (???) but got trapped in that spooky place, and his only defence left was his spectre (???) and so, by staying in it too long, he too was "driven to madness" which probably wasn't helped by the vandernacht curse (???). he might be half forgotten in his own mind, but he knows one thing right now: he wants to find lenore, his sister. he might not remember her as his sister, but he knows her name and an image is there in her mind. so when she arrives, he must get to her.
anyways guys, that's it. ignore me. i yap a lot. i know i don't know a lot and i'm sure there's a few fastpassers out there who are laughing because i'm being silly, but let me delude myself :)

Can I request some Vasco fluff please? Thank you
I can never resist my fave lil cinnamon roll. Thanks for requesting! Me still trying to come to terms with his short hair...
Vasco x Reader: Haircut
Vasco runs his hands through his hair self-consciously. He was never one to care about his looks but he knows you always had a fondness for his longer hair.
He peers at you, awkward and shy, and you feel yourself falling for him all over again.
"You're so handsome, Euntae," you say, combing your fingers through his hair and his face reddens.
"You... you like it, Y/N?"
It's a change. A change you will get used to.
"I love it."
Vasco bashfully ducks his head and avoids your gaze. But you can see the pleased smile poking out.
You understand the need for this. A makeover. After everything that has happened, everything that is happening.
Catharsis.
"Here," you dig into your pockets to hand over your phone.
Your gallery is filled with hundreds upon hundreds of photos of Jay's puppies from your dogwalking duties.
Vasco's face lights up as he scrolls through your pictures, every now and then zooming in on one of them playing together.
You did wonder if he was in danger of losing himself with all that's going on. Burn Knuckles and the shenanigans of J High seems so long ago. It comes as a relief, as you watch him now, that it's still just the same old Euntae Lee you always knew despite the new appearance. Underneath he's still just him.
Vasco looks over to you, completely besotted; eyes darts to your lips, but he hesitates.
Even now, he still finds himself timid when asking for affection. You kiss him anyway, and he sits there in awe, as if you could read his mind.
"Oh and there's chocolate milk for you in the fridge,"
"Y/N!" Vasco eyes well up. He gives you a watery smile as a single lone tear falls down his cheek.
He can't help it, you're too good to him.

ok listen listen listen- whatever grievances i may have with the webtoon (and you guys know i have,, many of those) they did go off with this scene
like!! this is javier realizing he can't stop lloyd from taking risks he believes he shouldn't be taking, it's him understanding that lloyd is taking on a responsibility far bigger than javier had expected him to and it's him coming to terms with the fact that no matter what he does he won't be able to keep lloyd completely out of harm's way.
and it's also him saying "fine, do whatever you want, but i'll be right at your side to protect you whether you want it or not"
it's him saying "do as you wish, just keep me with you so i can protect you while you do it"
and i am obsessed with it, completely and utterly in love with this decision thank you so much whoever put this in may your pillow always be cool and your socks always soft 🙏🏽
