Motive: Loneliness and shame due to isolation and manipulation.
Methods: Tommy built higher and more slowly, as if to represent how long this feeling had been building up inside.
Midfall: The fall was far enough for regret to hit him midfall, so he intentionally spared himself by aiming for the pond.
Reaction to Survival: (Externalized Negativity) He expressed bitterness about who he was hurt by. He had to accept that nobody was there to save him but himself.

2: Katieb [ QSMP2 ]
Cause: KFC business sabotaged / crushed dreams.
Motive: Loneliness and shame due to rejection from community and failed goals.
Methods: Katie's attempt was impulsive and impatient, in a race to jump before she could be stopped. So, she hurriedly set up multiple shorter heights to jump from.
Midfall: She was embarassed to have an audience while in crisis, and frustrated that they foiled her plans.
Reaction to Survival: (Internalized Negativity) She scolded herself for failing to die. ("I wanted to do one thing right and I literally couldn't even do it.") She was disappointed that she was saved by water buckets placed for her.
every so often a Pokemon au rotates around my brain, but can never figure out what I would want to do with it.
like, sure, it would make the most sense to turn all the prosecutors into gym leaders and making some of culprits in an evil team or smth, but it would be much funnier if literally nothing changed but Pokemon being there.
Nothing changes, the plot is identical, but everyone gets a Pokémon co-council. Phoenix’s Gallade and Miles’ Gardivoir spend every trial telepathically shit talking their trainers across the court room. Pearl has at least 10 ghost types hovering around her at all times cause of her power. Athena’s widget is a Rotom that airs out everyone’s emotions at the worst times. Simon’s falcon is a big ass Corvknight he threatens people with.
Something I noticed when combing through all of the prophecy panels is a difference in wording between Ralsei's and Chap. 4’s version that might have major implications.
In chapter 1, it says "Only they can seal the fountain, and banish the angel's heaven". We know now that dark worlds are shaped by their creator's will, so maybe they could be someone's perfect world, their heaven. So, we can assume "banish the angel's heaven" means to seal the dark fountain made by whoever the angel is. Using this reading, it makes it sound like sealing this dark world will end the roaring.
BUT in chapter 4, it says "The Angel, banished, will finally meet with its desire". In this version, we aren't just banishing the "angel's heaven", we are banishing the angel itself. It goes from "close the dark fountain the angel made" to "banish the angel itself". Slightly different but an important distinction.
The next part is foggier, trying to figure out what the desire is. It could be just another way of saying a dark world, as something made from the creator's will could also be called their desire. It could also be something entirely different, maybe the banishment is what the angel wants in the end, or don't know they want until they get it.
The two main theories are Noelle Angel, which is more supported by Ralsei's version, and Player Angel, which matches better to chapter 4.
A common theory is that something terrible will happen to Noelle, like Rudy dying or her finding out what happened to Dess, and she will create a dark world that will start the roaring, maybe at the festival. The others will have to seal her "heaven" to save everything, but what the tragedy is isn't covered in this theory.
The other is that the player is the angel, and the only way to save the world is to banish us from Kris, maybe killing them in the process. That would be the tragedy, but how the roaring is involved is unclear, as it's not like the soul can make a dark world. We seal them, which seems like a good thing at this point.
I'm not really making a point here, just laying out all the pieces for smarter people theorize about. Who knows, maybe it was just some weird wording on Toby's part, and it means exactly the same thing both times
This probably sounds. silly. But we saw that States SMP post you made about s2.5 and were wondering, 1. if you've seen the other seasons, and 2. if you have, do you have any good playlists or videos from other non-Ish perspectives saved anywhere?
We're getting into States after experiencing the. Everything that was Ish's 2.5 video, but don't really know where to go from there, and you seemed knowledgeable to us.
Hello! Yes, I am an OG Ish fan. I think it's of utmost importance that all S2.5-only fans must watch at least Season 2.0, as the intertextuality there is heavy.
Even though the direct asker may not be a S2.5-only, I'm still doing some disclaimers.
If you haven't seen my Season 2.5 rec list first, here it is.
Masterlist for everyone:
Season 1.0 - the first one and the one with Solev
Season 1.5 - stranded on an island and the one with Solev
Season 1.7 - Prison experiment and the one with Solev
Season 2.0 - the one where Solev is an Admin (I'M JOKING ALRIGHT ALRIGHT) the one with Elanuelo and The Aculon Empire.
Season 2.5 - the one where— ahem, Fluxarata. oh, and the one where Solev is an Admin.
More Non-Canon Events:

ish's 1000 Player Parkour Challenge! (featuring 2.5 characters!)
LORE:

The Battle of Aculon (RAW FOOTAGE)
More deleted scenes, cameos, and cuts can be found on Ish's second channel!
Oh, and Sidefall, Saparata, ItzzEnder, and Lampeyre goof around.
Just some S2.0 facts to preface:
Saparata was the First President of Theria and committed suicide by jumping off a tower, alluding to his attempt in Season 2.5 in the tundra.
Alongside that, Fluixon and Jophiel were the Second and Third Presidents of Theria respectively. The way they are intertwined is insane.
It all comes to this family tree; The House of Aculon. (Cyn refers to Cynikka, by the way). For more information, consult either @cro-fiishy for this fascinating, intertextual family, or me if I decide to get off my ass and propagandize this entire fandom.
NON-S.25 RECOMMENDATIONS

Season 2.0 Slander PART 2 (IGN: Cyr6x)
Might make a Slander Masterlist HAHA.
That's literally all. Unfortunately, pre-S2.5 POV's are disorganized and independent, so I can't do anything about representing entire nations and their narratives with just one POV. That's why Ender is the goat, though.
If anyone has more pre-S2.5 POV's that are worth watching for lore, especially Season 1 and 1.5, please reblog!
