Alastor NEVER Truly Smiled Theory/Truth? 🪞🎭🔮
I'm always very fascinated by these theories that Alastor really to some degree is putting on a major act, and a lot of it may be false confidence, because really thinking about it, it seems VERY possible. I don't think Alastor was always the way he was I think when he was even alive he had to work hard and go through trials and tribulations to become the way that he is. He learned how to be confident or at least fake confidence and hide his emotions. (That's why I feel like he understands Charlie because she hasn't really learned yet. He may know from personal experience.)
The fact that he just so happened to become a deer based demon when he died is also just very telling in itself. The lore is that he used to be a murderer and also a deer hunter in his past life, so it would feel very fitting that as punishment he would take on the form of being PREY. For his past actions of being the predator he got knocked to being the prey. That's what I feel like part of his curse is, and I think he knows that.
It was almost sort of a dead giveaway even when his smile was stitched up. Or even when you just look at his eyes and the reaction in them. It's obvious that he's clearly NOT happy all the time. He even admits that a smile can hide anything. Somebody GAVE him that smile. Maybe Lilith, or maybe just someone else idk. There's definitely hidden secrets about him still. It's just ironic to me that Angel Dust was said to be the one putting on an act...when it seems more clear to me that no one could put on an "act" better than Alastor himself.
He's been doing it for awhile and in the end he was practically breaking. He looked like he wanted to cry and actually show other emotions but he can't....
Fuck a fake smile. I hope we'll see him genuinely happy one day....❤️🩹🥀🌇
