What is your headcannon about adults (especially Lewis? And can you please tell me more about your theory of Lewis’s reverse unification?
( I actually sent those questions few days ago, but it seems like you haven’t received them yet, so I decided to send them again. If you have already received them but still haven’t been able to answer them, yet then… I sincerely do apologize for spaming )
hi! i actually did get your other ask, it just takes me a while to answer sometimes 😭 these last weeks i've had a lot to deal with in general, but dw you're not spamming. i don't have a lot of headcanons about the adults (or headcanons in general), though i CAN talk to you about the reverse unified lewis theory!
i first came up with the theory right after lewis was first introduced. there's a scene where thomas comments on how quickly lewis was able to catch up on facial expressions after having just become an adult, since shadows usually leave those to their living dolls, and edward and co have been adults for a while and their faces are still kinda stiff. this is evidence #1 and yes, this offhand comment was enough for me to come up with a whole theory that lewis is in fact a reverse unified living doll. though in my defense why else would they include that dialogue
evidence #2 (though this is a bit more shaky) arrived when it was revealed that lewis was working with anthony all along. now, as influent as christopher was, and still is, anthony is still human. if lewis is a shadow, anthony would be a faceless doll that isn't even supposed to speak in the first place trying to use christopher's memory to convince him that a system that completely benefits him is wrong. if lewis is human, anthony would be a fellow living doll, somebody he probably talked to before christopher was invited, showing up to save him from the monsters that want to kill him. we've seen that work on maggie before. the reverse unification part of the theory also fits well into this, it would make a lot of sense for lewis to fall into this insane level of devotion if anthony literally saved his life in unification, perhaps showing up midway through the process like lewis himself did with lou and louise
which leads us to evidence #3! before louise gets her monster transformation, lewis word by word tells her that the shadow that was invited with him died in unification, and that he doesn't want that to happen to her. you can certainly read this as "lewis and his living doll were invited together with another, unrelated pair, that failed unification" but, judging by the reactions i've seen, i certainly wasn't the only one to interpret it as the most solid piece of evidence towards reverse unification so far!
this was about it for the theory so far, but if we get any updates in the next chapters you can trust me to be annoying about it again 👍
