Does anyone else see how Morbid Hogwarts Mystery Is?

You live your life a few years before Harry Potter joins Hogwarts. He’s still at the Dursleys and is unaware of the magic world. You live a happy life with growing up with Tonks, Bill, Charlie, Percy, all those familiar faces. It’s Snape early years at Hogwarts. Barley in his twenties

But you, as the person behind the screen, know that shit is gonna get very real. You know the truth. That Snape is a double agent. That Tonks will one day die. That Scabbers is actually Peter Pettigrew, and you can’t do anything about it

Just this forty year old man, pretending to be a rat, being played by Bill and Charlie. Just kids playing with someone who is responsible for their future brother in law’s parents dying

You’ll end up growing up to be a fellow teacher, and watch the characters you as the person who controls the play grew up with grow up themselves

You’ll watch Fred and George in their early days before Harry and Ron joined

You’ll watch these people live, but you know they will die

You can’t do anything to change history

You simply ARE part of history

You will watch your newly made life long friends die

You’ll watch the students you raise die

But you know how the story plays out, and can’t do anything to change it

Am I the only one that sees how morbid that all is? Just me?

I have another idea about Amygdala, listen,

Okay so... You already know how internal name in game for Amygdala is 'evil god', whereas for One Reborn it's 'failed evil god', right? And like, notice how every Amygdala has strange stub on their back:

At first I assumed these might resemble some sort of torn wings, since Gardens of Eyes resemble them. Then I thought that maybe these are traces of torn arm (since you do have Amygdalan Arm as a weapon, and all Amygdalas miss second arm on (their) left) - but upon further examining their body, I've noticed that it doesn't seem like it. Not only losing exactly same-row arm is weird (they bothered to make variants of Amygdala models with tentacles and eyes and whatnot, I think they would make some 8-armed ones or ones missing different arm if lost arm was an implication, they don't spare effort on subtle lore?)... But also, the stumps are located more in the middle of the back, rather than to the side.

Basically, seems like Amygdalas are meant to have 7 arms, there is no sense of horrible asymmetry or something missing, it is just how they are!

And then I just,

If One Reborn is a failed attempt to make an Amygdala, there should be some resemblance, right? So, notice how if you compare two designs - what resembles a head of normal Amygdala is a huge lump of skulls. With Amygdala, head formed normally and is where lumps of skulls is. However, there is this 'individual' person, located above 'head', acting almost as a separate creature!

So, like... it seems like implication of Amygdalas' design is that this 'person' above normal 'head' is gone for them, with only stubs remaining where they once were or were supposed to be.

Okay, so,

There is this item... Found in chests or dropped by Loran Silverbeasts, which very conveniently looks like a human(oid) child skeleton, but with lower body missing... And I specified that they are indeed called 落とし子 (otoshi-ko), because like. Remember how Patches calles Amygdala a bastard? That was not an insult or anything - even in Japanese script he uses word '落とし子' as well, so like. He said what he said, this word is to be taken directly.

Also interesting bit is that in beta, Ebrietas' internal name was 'bastard of the moon', with 落とし子 as well, and her design implies that she is a celestial child but grown-up, so like, in this context 'bastard' very likely implies """not legitimate""" Great One, so, a Great One born with mortals mixed in.

So... Yeah, I think Bastard of Loran might be where 'individual person above main head' part of Amygdalas went, however this part is still present in One Reborn. Whatever the reason to tear them off was.

I’m tired.” He paused. His gaze dropped to the cigarette in his hand. “I’m tired of burying the people I like.”

Although he had said he liked her before, it felt heavy this time. Sam’s pulse thudded in her neck. Did he mean he liked-liked her? “Well, I have no plans of getting buried,” Sam said.

Danny resumed walking, flustered, if the speed of his strides was any indication. “Well, good.  ‘Cause you can’t afford me. I have over fifty years gravedigging experience,” he bragged.

As they passed by the gate to the playground, Sam plucked her bike by it’s handlebars, leading it alongside her. She watched Danny joke his way out of whatever that was. She decided to let him. “I haven’t seen you do any digging in the three months I’ve known you.”

“That’s because I’m a professional,” Danny countered.

“Seeing as I’d be dead, I wouldn’t really care about paying you,” she reasoned, shooting him a toothy smirk.

give me the jacket of happiness let it drape on my shoulders, my arms, my back leave it unzipped, let my heart see through the window it creates let me feel the warmth of the sun on my back beneath its worn leather don't zip it, never zip it let me take it off every night let it be temporary that way I can never see its truth that way it can never suffocate

- me

No fucks were given that day. In his mind, "well I'll use it better than they were."
