Seil directory rant (very opinion based)
I feel like Seanâs character is one of the main ones that get heavily misinterpreted, he is at times portrayed as composed or rational/cold but I donât believe thatâs the case, so after watching the web series/ARG and seeing other views of analysis (Senprista and other analyses), this is my conclusion.
Sean is a very dramatic, impulsive character as a whole rather than the âcomposed/nonchalantâ way some in the community portray him as, and is very sensitive
Of course I will take into account his life/condition before nilspace, he suffered from many mental illnesses, (I.e, suffered from severe anxiety, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and epilepsy) due to that itâs safe to assume he didnât exactly have his emotions composed or under control, and this reflected on him in the series. One of the way Sean expresses this is through the many written poems, or codes he leaves out, the way he describes his situation is very poetic and well undeniably dramatic, example, in the âFragmentationâ entry, the description he describes his sufferings to the viewers.
The following is said description:
Sean has a unique way of description, and it is apparent early on that this is his way of portraying anger, using metaphors to describe his never ending purgatory, but it appears as one of the calmer ways he expresses himself, as after memory capture 2 & 3, in the âNiobeâ entry, he has fully lost it, and has a quite visceral and emotional reaction/response to those who voted âyes(risky)â on Rebeccaâs(crimsonblade2/directoryuser2) tumblr poll to see if they should investigate further in the game files of Sail the High Sees.
.VERY SEVERE FLASH AND LOUD NOISE WARNING IF YOU PLAN ON WATCHING NIOBE ENTRY.
In the entry, the screen places on text that says:
âThe road to hell is always paved with good intentionsâ
âEverything and everyone wants me down a certain pathâ
âJake was never in controlâ
âRebecca was never in controlâ
âClyde was never in controlâ
âI was never in controlâ
âWhat am I to you all?â
Then he proceeds to scream at us for another minute before Medula who clearly didnât appreciate his words caused him, what I believe is an epileptic shock, or another perspective is the spawn halo that is pierced into his skull rapidly began to spin which perhaps hurt him, but I donât believe that may be the case, as in the âNeurosisâ entry, the spawn halo also spins very rapidly as jx1dx1 says his usual antagonistic bs and tryâs to get Sean worked up which does work, however Sean does not have the same visceral response to the halo as he does in the âNiobe entryâ which most likely makes it more accurate to be an epilepsy shock, another proof of this is in âmemory capture(2)â entry, where Sean is bothered by the small flashing light of the computer that had even desaturated colors, so if he is bothered by this small thing, the horrible flashing lights in Niobe. This is all my evidence and I still have more to proudly say that Sean is VERY VERY much expressive of his emotion unlike how he is portrayed in the fandom.
Anyway, this is all my opinion, you donât need to agree, I donât really mind, this is just what I observed, if I got anything wrong, feel free to tell me how you feel in the comments, Iâm only writing all this for the sake of ranting and Iâm bored, Iâm open to discussions about it if you want, once again all my opinions and thoughts, believe what you want Iâm not the seildirectory fun police, believe what you wanna, ok ciao ciao
