I’m Sooooooo Normal About Re-animator

okay so. the “tmagp fears are actually desires” theory is very popular, and while i think there is something to it, i don’t think it is,, accurate?

we know from Needles that fear is what is being sought after, and i have a slightly different theory on this.

i think that the Fears are a relatively new to this world, or don’t have as much of a foothold yet (i do think they are present throughout this worlds timeline due to time-fuckery but they aren’t as firm as in tma, and will get firmer as the series goes on) and as a consequence they can’t prey on any random person they want to, but instead they must seek out people already inclined to them, be it as an avatar or a victim.

this, combined with the lack of survivors bias that was present in tma (only those who survived got to make a statement vs in tmagp where the incident reports are found online, uploaded in whatever form documenting incidents as they happen rather than after the fact (with a few exceptions)) creates the sense that the fears are fuelled by desire, because the victims and avatars were inclined to the fears before they were ever touched by them.

artefacts act as a catalyst (in chemistry something that speeds up the rate of reaction without being used up in it) for someone becoming an avatar, and might be one way that the fears can seek out someone to “turn” into an avatar. (this connects to what i think the magnus institute was doing but ill expand on that more in the future)

i just couldn’t get this image out of my head

image description for Malevolent fanart that would exist if I could draw: Arthur Lester, a skinny white man with dull brown hair whose expression and demeanor suggest that he hasn’t slept in 10 days and might murder you, in business casual 1930s men’s trousers & vest with ragged brown shoulder bag; clothes, bag and self have all been been torn and rubbed in dirt and blood. Leaning over his shoulder and kind of coiled around him is John Doe, a humanoid-ish shadow figure in a golden robe topped with a golden coronet. John’s open mouth is a flat yellow shape against the blackness inside his hood; a speech bubble says, “Oh, Arthur” in squiggly letters that imply a delighted sigh at the thought of murder. John has no eyes on his face; instead, where Arthur’s human eyes should be, there are flat yellow eye shapes in a style matching John’s mouth (clearly John’s eyes on Arthur’s face). John’s right hand—black, looks more like tentacles pushed together in the shape of a hand than a real human hand, sharp golden nails—rests on Arthur’s right shoulder, somewhere between supportive affection and possession; his left doesn’t cover Arthur’s left hand but rather replaces it, Arthur’s hand disappearing where their wrists meet. The front half of Arthur’s right foot is likewise replaced by a distinctly tentacle-like half a foot coming out from the bottom of John’s robe.

Just finished painting in my previous reanimator post as promised!!
