Ok ok, finally I'm getting caught up on months of eps in EAPs, Femme, ETC etc (I caught up on Laes, new dynamics are insane!)
and I'm on the Ruin - Rusty ark in eaps but completely caught up on tsams and laes. I don't want to spoil anything for people who aren't caught up too, spoilers below!
The virus ark in EAPS. I bet people have talked about this but it's my understanding that Monty just being in the dimension Ruin and Eclipse are in is enough for the virus to spread to the entire world's computers in like....hours, why didn't the virus ever affect the main Sun and Moon dimension? I know there was a BIG theory N.Moon/Nexus was sick in the head because of this virus and like... the way it's described ALL checks out. Even Sun is being strangely aggressive recently in tsams? (I kind of think it's just back pain making him snippy) but also.....what if? Like...why didn't Sun and Moon carry the virus back? I know that they brought back a virus cure and Sun even shared said cure with Monty before leaving Ruin's original dying dimension...but with Monty's current state that 'cure' was clearly some kind of fake or prank by the creator. Or...it just won't work on Monty because the virus IS Rusty-Monty now. That's how it's explained, and it apparently takes months before the bloodlust and madness takes hold. Again, very interestingly lines up with N.Moon's decline on top of D.Sun's own meddling in his downfall.
So, I kind of wonder, does this mean Sun is actually infected? Or is he the key to being immune? Similar to how Ruin is immune? Even thought I'm not caught up on EAPs I did see the episode where Sun and Moon begrudgingly visit their dimension to ask for an illusion disk and Sun very...uncharacteristically cursed at everyone there, including the kids? It just doesn't add up to me. He'll go from being so patient and gentle. With the kids at his new pizzeria, with the kid that NovaFrost scared, with Dazzle, with Jack, with Molten, with NovaFrost, ...etc etc but the moment he's been sent to FEMME and to EAPs he's weirdly super hostile? Yeah they all kind of call him ugly? but like...Sun doesn't usually react like that? It could just be his back pain. But, what if it's more? He was mean to FC, a kid he grew to adore and that adores him right back. He was so kind of EAPs Sunpea and Moonpea (can't remember if this is their canon names) but it's like...all that kindness and patients just evaporated. While it's completely ok to be in mood, to be having a bad day, I just find it really strange. Even Moon talked about how strange it was. Last I checked...Sun had a tenuous agreement of sorts with Eclipse? It's been tepid between them since he brought back Solar. But him straight up cursing Eclipse was so shocking it literally shut Eclipse up. Man locked up and basically blue-screened on the spot.
The strangest thing? The visit prior. Moon first showing up to ask for the favor. Remember how he mentioned Nexus went crazy and came back for some reason? Eclipse said he knew why and mocked Moon for not knowing. Here's the thing, I don't think this was a blatant bluff. Since this happened right after the virus incident in EAPs I'm now wondering if he's implying it was the virus? It probably actually has more to do with the visions of future he had when he possessed the star, but I can't stop theorizing.
Especially because Sun is changing in small ways. He never lost the wither shard radar/immunity. He touched Nexus and mentioned only his arm went numb (a genuinely poisonous substance to everything in existence), when in the animatronic zombie world Sun was touched by one (even if it was just his pants), and in recent EPs he's figured out how to get his magic back just in time for a very thrilling new ark where Solar is more then likely going to be hunted for sport.
I'm very curious where this is all going! Sorry for my rambly rambles. the brainrot be real and I had to get these thoughts out before sleeping.
