NEW BETTER LIFE CHAPTER !!!

and new favorite character dynamic >:)

John should be allowed to be a little evil, for good

My favorite thing about the Witch episode is the whole John embracing both sides of himself, he can't be only good and doesn't have to be only bad and all that stuff. I especially liked how we got to see this at the end with how the Witch was defeated cuz lbr, John isn't much of a threat by himself or even in general. If Arthur is dead or otherwise knocked out, John's just a disembodied voice that only a few select people outside of Arthur can even hear.

So for him to be able to defeat the Witch in the only way he can was a really cool feat for him. Even as the King in Yellow, I think he preferred mind games and manipulation before resorting to violence and the way he manipulated the Witch into offing herself with the gun by seeing that he can take advantage of her hubris/ignorance and lie to her about what it does shows that he can still be a threat in his own way

And I want to see more of this. Arthur is the one with any agency, it's his actions and (mostly) his choices that push the plot, John's mostly just there to provide the scenery and maybe drop some lore insight here and there and because of this I think he can sometimes feel more like a narrative device than an actual character. Obviously he's had his own character growth and arc, but idk, for the most part there's not much he can actually do besides provide description, be introspective, or just be there as a sounding board for Arthur as he works things through.

The Deal episode kinda showcased how I think John can take on a more active role when Arthur was trying to distract the Butcher away from Daniel. Arthur was just throwing things at the wall hoping something stuck while John kinda coached him on what to say to really get under his skin. I like when John is shown that he can be really insightful on these kinds of things, just able to clock people's insecurities or fears and weaknesses, knowing which buttons to press to get them to behave or act in a certain way that benefits him/them

I had a dream about Arthur going on a murder spree of a cult that worshiped trees and I was an escapee that joined him on the murder spree.

Didn't wanna hijack someone else's post but on the topic of Malevpod x MLP crossover and possible Arthur Lester cutie marks. Consider perhaps

(Also something something Arthur's often symbolized as a rabbit so double entendre that he kicks his enemies just as much as he runs away and he's lucky in the ways he survives many things other people wouldn't, but also in that he is a prey animal that acts as a distraction/good luck charm for someone else and that comes about by him being Fucking Dismembered)

((Also I imagine once he opens the book the metal on the pendant of his cutie marks turns gold and is extended into a chain or something))
