This is going to be disorganized as fuck, I don't actually have a point, but I just rewatched MPN Story Mode and I'm going crazy, so I'm going to word vomit on this post

Ok so we all know the meeting scene between Jeb, Doc & Hank, right?

Fantastic scene, go watch it if you haven't (and if you did, rewatch it. It's just great). Anyway.

So, one thing from that is that we get this

So, ghoulish huh? A quick search on Merriam Webster tells me:

1: : a legendary evil being that robs graves and feeds on corpses

2: one suggestive of a ghoul

especially : one who shows morbid interest in things considered shocking or repulsive

Which... interesting. Of course, we already knew this, didn't we? After all, we had Krinkels' poster:

Bit hard to see, but right under NOT A DOCTOR, where I marked it, says: MORE OF A GHOUL

So that's curious, right? But, well, nothing too out of the ordinary. I mean, ofc Doc would have morbid interests, absolutely nothing surprising in Nevada.

EX - FUCKING - CEPT

You see, usually in the stage before a flashback cutscene, we have something slightly leading up to it. Hofnarr notes before a Hofnarr flashback, meeting Jeb before a Jeb flashback, etc. You get the point.

...But the stage right before this is The Last Leg, a Deimos & Sanford stage. Now, the other stages before this one did have plenty of Christoff's back and forth notes against Dr Crackpot. ...But there's none in this chapter. In fact, the only not-S&D main character is Tricky, who is notably absent from the flashback.

And here's where it gets weird.

Because The Last Leg is only focused on introducing robot enemies. The only note we have is from an employee, complaining about the things turning against them:

They are specifically complaining about insolvents:

(From the Merriam-Webster site again)

1

a: unable to pay debts as they fall due in the usual course of business

b: having liabilities in excess of a reasonable market value of assets held

2

: insufficient to pay all debts

(Bolding mine)

What it is to say, they are more dangerous than they are useful.

Alright, but what does this have to do with the flashback?

Well you see, The Last Leg has a boss fight. Against something, very, very interesting:

VERY interesting design, isn't is? Red eyes, fucked up mouth, a black mohawk...

Ok, ok, but surely I'm reaching. I mean, what could this thing have in connection with Doc at all?

...Oh.

Yep. This enemy shares design, as well as a ghoulish connection to 2BDamned.

In fact, in concepts designs (from the wiki):

Earlier concepts of the Ghoul depict it as a feral Mag zombie, and then later on a quadrupedal Mag unit with cybernetic augmentations. Early concept images assigned him the subclass of "Carrion Eater"[1]. This, combined with how early concept artwork of it depicts it holding a corpse with it's head eaten, implied that it would have eaten corpses in the middle of battle.

And sure enough, it's the first definition of ghoul.

All of this? Means the connection to the flashback wasn't neither Jeb nor Hank. It was Doc.

So. What the fuck does this mean? Well, first of all, fuck me if I know. This is the bare facts, and I hope anyone besides me can gather anything from this, because I'm stumped.

...Sort of.

You see, I have another connection to make. This one, I recognize I might be reaching (but then, maybe I'm not?) (Idk man)

After all, as we come to find out from Arena Mode, Doc is very much meddling in the godly affairs of Nevada.

And, well. Those are Nevada's gods. The Maker, who's Doc benefactor, and...

The Machine.

And now, I'd like to point out your attention to the fact that, while I called the enemies in The Last Leg robots, the only way they're called in game is...

(From the Insolvents log)

And the only other time (as far as I remember, correct me if I'm wrong) we fight waves of robots, and the final boss is a giant robot is...

(also, notice the Grand Steward has a grunt-like face with its faceplates closed off)

...when we meet The Machine itself.

So. Once again, what the fuck does this mean?

Ultimately, I just don't know, really. But I have a very strong feeling there is something very, very important we don't truly know about Doc's connection to the Machine.

Hank's psyche deteriorating throughout the show, driving him away from any hobbies and activities he signed up for previously. Dying so many times it doesn't matter which version of him is revived because any of them is violent enough to carry on with the killing. Doing what comes natural. Man I don't fucking know

If I could put any fictional character I know to put in Genshin Impact, I'd pick... Hank J. Wimbleton!

It's wishful thinking if im being honest -

I might make some for other characters in madness combat it was pretty fun to do jxjxjxjxjsksk -

Also, heres a constellation :)

I couldn't think of anything ° _ °

thinking abt thematics i personally think project gestalt and project kobold should be like. foils to eachother.

project gestalt is this massive, nightmarish genetic mess born of flesh and blood, made for rending skin and crushing bone as painfully and messily as it takes to get Phobos to where he wants to be. they're enormous (made to grow indefinitely), loud, and always make a huge entrance when they appear-- however, the s-3lf eater is this pristine, poignant figure that moves with the same sort of stealth i imagine a crane stalking fish in the water with. you often don't even realize she's appeared ingame until she's right up on you- the only warning you ever receive that she's encroaching is that ominous ass toll, precisely like some kind of reaper.

gonne died quietly, erased completely- not even her office survived. no one speaks of her, not once is she brought up by the other three head scientists until she's literally right in front of christoff's face and hunting him down with a scythe. (even then, he only addresses her by name after she's already sealed away again....)

on the other hand, phobos went out screaming- in the wake of his death the entire city was turned upside down, and his visage haunts the area for years to come. his men continue to work for him as if he's alive- his corpse is still able to be found in the room he died in, left bloodied and on display.

i dunno i dunno. red and blue, the carnality of flesh and the perfection of machinery..... perhaps something to be said about nevada as a whole with that last bit, considering what the universe's creator is called! im just thinking about them. huooo.....

#also gonne is 100% all those visceral ass posts about sacrificing your imperfect body for the immortality of a machine #not really a ship thing. i dont personally think they work out together at all but thats just me #pory turgles #madcom #madness combat #director phobos #dr gonne
