Iron Lung and Project Hail Mary as "men who persevere against impossible odds and find courage in the depths of despair"

Versus Obsession and Backrooms "men will willingly stay in a literal horror movie situation over confronting their mistakes and taking responsibility for their actions"

update when markiplier announced he's producing the dvd/blu-ray himself i was like cool he's personally supervising the process and then he was like no i mean i'm making them myself at my house and i imagined some kind of complicated gargantuan contraption dutifully chugging along 24/7 blowing up this man's electricity bill and then he was like

anyway if you buy an iron lung dvd/blu-ray: it was made on a printer-sized machine. at markiplier's house.

Saying Brian/hoody was suicidal is low-key making me upset because that man didn't spend years and years trying to stay alive to hunt down Alex Kralie for that.

If he wanted to he could have stayed dead and gone instead of focusing on helping jay/Tim because let me tell you, that man's MAIN objective was killing Alex. The comics give him some nuance, sure, but that doesn't change the fact he's corrupted by anger and hatred.

"I don't care. Bring down with you. As long as you are gone." Using this as proof he was suicidal is.. questionable! Especially when before that panel he was desperately trying to get out of the ark and LIVE again. He was only okay with dying there because his mission would have finally be completed. His entire character revolves around Alex and how he wants him dead. He makes so many mistakes because of it too, he prioritized THAT over saving Jessica, over keeping Jay and Tim safe.

Hoody is a character that desperately wants to live ONLY to get rid of Alex.

Once he was sure he was indeed dead, he was able to get closure and let go.

Even in the comic, he's UNABLE to let go of Alex or jump in with him because he's SCARED.

Him trying to climb down from the window was his LAST resort! He knows how to climb! He was sure of his skill - the only reason he fell was because Tim WAS ABOUT TO HIT HIM WITH A METAL ROD!!!

I don't care about ppls HCs but saying it's heavily implied or canon makes me go insane. All this is /lh btw
