slides into your inbox do you have any headcanons about the room games? anything you imagine happening outside of what is shown in the games or thoughts in general (im sorry if you have a post abt this but id like to hear you ramble abt these games :D)
HEWWO FRIEND this is such a good question whlskdjf!! ty for asking!!
I actually have Not made a post about my thoughts on The Room because half of my thoughts are just. musings about The Protagonist and the story I've created about them in my head, but I don't really consider those actual thoughts on the game since it's far more of an OC at this point 😅 I have drawn them though, and I did actually make a cosplay, even though I haven't posted that one lmao but here they are:

In terms of Actual Headcanons, let's see! (under the cut bc this got long)
Starting plausible/simple, I initially thought about A.S. as a former scientific partner, perhaps from the field of astronomy? His star projector sits heavy in my memory always. In other possibilities, I thought A.S. could be family. Perhaps a father, trying to get his child to follow in his research (they do mention having a bit of a tense history, but The Protagonist still came to his calls and he still dies to save them ;~;) or perhaps a brother. I think it's really poignant either way. Auuuugh I love A.S.
Also, less of a headcanon, but more of a note, I looooove how the victims of the Craftsman still seem to have some agency, even within the mockeries he forces them into. The scene where Maggy writes "HE DECIEVES YOU" on her window even though she's just an animatronic is soooooo dope. This ALSO makes me wonder if A.S. was ever actually captured by the Craftsman because I think I remember something about that before his death in TR2, so.... I wonder if some part of his soul was conscious and active in TR3 trying to help you. Maybe that's where the hints come from. Waaa idk I miss him.
Onto an Actual headcanon of mine that I Know is a long shot: so ok, Abigail Lockwood's survival of Old Sins is one of my faaaaavorite things in game, and I wish we got to see more of her. From this, I always thought it could be fun if she becomes the protagonist of the VR game to keep investigating what took her husband/almost took her.
It is a little ehh to think about Abigail going on to become to a cop lol, and also not very realistic to imagine a woman getting that job in the time period, but I was disappointed to be playing as a cop anyways, so one with lore I liked was a step up. I Also saw the theory on the wiki that Abigail is the Witch, however, The Witch is also one of The Craftman's victims, so it's unfortunate to think that she escaped The Circle and The Null only to be caught by him. It does slay to think that she was smart enough to deceive him and find someone who could save her from that imprisonment though.
I really like her either being the one to save others that The Craftsman entraps, or one who dug herself further in and was Almost caught by him, only to be saved by another woman(The Witch). I do like that consistently, the people who resist The Null and/or The Craftsman the most are the ladies (Maggy, Abigail, The Witch). Even if they don't all make it out, that's always been cool to me.
All that aside, genuinely I feel like there's a lot about these games that I don't understand lol (like girl.... what is the royal institute and how well known even is the Null, what even Is It??) but I kind of enjoy that mystery and getting to learn about it a little more every time I replay.
Like, in terms of what the Null Actually Is - you've been the one to make me ask the questions - is it sentient? What does it.... actually have to do with all those ominous tentacles? Are those manifestations of it or are they separate entities in partnership? Why is it from Mars ? Also. The Circle are worshippers of the Null? How did they find out about it without being eaten by it?? Many questions in the field that I think you have put more thought into than me. So please, by all means consider this a reverse ask if you want 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀 I am looking soooooooo normalstyle
Por fin después de tanto esperar, tengo el privilegio de tenerte de nuevo a mi lado al dormir. Pero esta vez de una manera diferente, sin alcohol que influya, sin sexo, sin deseo. Solo por el gusto de estar, de tenernos y desnudarnos de la manera más poética, abrazados y sientiendonos plenos. Solo cuando estás tú puedo descansar, sentirme en un estado de paz que la naturaleza estaría avergonzada.
