I was just thinking of the silly idea that if Romeo and Carlo/P dated, since Romeo is the King of Puppet that would make Carlo/P the Queen. But then I realised that this statement as some truth in it compared to chess : in chess the King is the most important piece in the game and if attacked you lose - it made me think of when we beat Romeo suddenly the other puppets didn't have anyone to guide them and the monster took over (aslo the King don't move often just like Romeo is practically always in the Estella Opera House) , as for the Queen she is the most powerful piece in the game and can go practically however she likes - which made me think of Carlo/P who move around the city and defeat everyone in his way. They are also some other things that make me think of this but if I go on I'm going to rumble and this will take forever to read.

I also like to see the whole story of Lies of P as a giant chessboard with two side opposing each other : one is Simon and the monster, the other is Geppetto and the puppets. With how manipulative they both are I find it interesting.

Might talk more about the other characters as chess piece and their importance in the story so tell me if you would like it.

Mid spoilers (beware)

Might sound wild but do you think the Black Rabbit Brotherhood actually want to kill us at the beginning because we're not Carlo (or at least that's what they're thinking)?

We don't really know the different ways someone can become a stalker, it's explicit that you can become one by going to school or having special type of education, but I'm thinking about the more older stalker : did the stalker thing appeared with the arrival of the alchemist or was it already install? We don't have an actual answer to that but if yes that mean only education could do, if not it mean that you can become stalker with other ways but anyways going back to the subject now.

With the attitude of the Black Rabbit Brotherhood it would seems that they are poor children or orphans (surely both) since the youngest said her elder bother always looked out for her or something. Also they all appear to be between their late teens to late twenties, as for Romeo and Carlo/P they also look in their late teens early twenties (but other people might argue about that because of their appearance so I'm basing myself on the fact that carlo had a graduation necklace - don't really think they would graduate at 14). We know that the Black Rabbit Brotherhood were actual stalkers before turning into criminals (find out in a wanted poster).

But where I'm I going with all this, huh? I think that to become stalkers the Black Rabbit Brotherhood were actually student/resident of the Monad Charity House since they are likely orphans and we know it was a refuge for orphans and poor children like Romeo before. Carlo also was a student there and I think the fact that the son of the "genius" who build the puppets was in the same boarding school as you was not something you could really ignore. So even if they didn't really knew each other personally i think that they knew at least who it was. And it seems like Carlo's death was also a public affair, since he's the son of Geppetto, they obliviously knew about his death, (maybe not the cause since the petrification desease was still covered up but at least that he died).

So I think that seeing him going around killing puppets must have been a little unsettling. The liar coffin can also be a clue : the fact that P is not really Carlo (at least not yet) but it can also mean so many things and be references to other so I'm not really betting on this argument.

In fact do I have a single valuable argument in this? No, because it's a theory and maybe it's not that or maybe the devs didn't even thought about it. It's all speculation with the little amount of information that we have throught-out the game but I still find it interesting.
