The Informant, Family and his Insecurity Pt 2

I NEED TO GNAW ON WOOD‼️‼️‼️‼️

I have so many thoughts about him oh my god umm I'm not sure where to even start writing this so it might be a bit disorganised

Part 1 here!

seekers notes spoilers under the cut!!

One very very interesting thing I noticed is that throughout Felix and Informant's appearance ever since his face reveal, Felix has refered to Informant as his brother about 4 times up till now, and Informant has only ever done that twice, as if he says it very sparingly

In one of the tasks I'm about to bring up, the context is that Felix wants to step down as mayor because he had previously falsified a photograph of the werewolf (which is informant just to recall) He wants to keep his brother's identity a secret but the townspeople are getting agitated and scared & untrusting of the mayor and the stress was simply getting to him

Informant comes in to tell Felix not to resign because for one, he's a good mayor and for two, if Carl were to take up the role of the mayor, the city might as well go down in flames

Felix insists on it because he doesn't want to lose Informant and Informant turns to me and goes

AND THIS BRINGS AN ENTIRELY NEW PERSPECTIVE ON HIS CHARACTER AND IT'S SO REFLECTIVE OF THEIR CHILDHOOD AND WHERE THEY ARE IN ADULTHOOD IN THE CURRENT TIMELINE.

Felix always taking charge and him becoming the town's mayor and Informant always feeling this inferiority because Felix has never been listening to him his entire life, taking the backseat and is now doing his occupation in the shadows. Oh My God.

SO IT ADDS THIS EXTRA LAYER OF NUANCE TO HIM DOING HIS JOB BECAUSE ON TOP OF HAVING FELT LIKE A MONSTER, HE ALSO TAKES HIS JOB AS THE INFORMANT AS A SORT OF ESCAPISM TO GAIN BACK THE CONTROL IN HIS LIFE THAT HE NEVER HAD AS A CHILD

but despite all that, he still treasures Felix, despite how he has never felt listened, despite how he knows they'll never go back to how they were when they were children, he still cares for felix

(okay the context for this is that he was going to sacrifice himself and turn into the werewolf forever without Felix knowing but the witch stepped in to pretend to be the wolf instead so all is good)

Up to here, I was thinking about how Felix wants to protect Informant just because he was the younger brother since he has been worrying about him non-stop ever since he popped back up

Felix has always been trying to protect Informant when they were young and he's Still doing it now.

IT'S SO WILD BECAUSE IN THIS PART OF THE STORY, HE HAS BEEN REFERING TO HARRY AND INFORMANT AS IF THEY WERE 2 DIFFERENT PEOPLE his refusal to admit that they are the same people

Informant will always be seen as the little brother in his eyes. He will always be underestimating him and absolutely cannot see that Informant has grown and changed as a person

AND IN THIS SECTION, INFORMANT GOES AHEAD AND CUTS CONTACT WITH FELX.

AND OH MY GOD I AM SO INSANE ABOUT THIS SECTION BECAUSE I've been having this feeling, ever since he revealed himself, the reluctance in his words to admit that he was a Smallcat.

This section means so much for his character because it shows how he misses his family, or at least having a sort of solace of people who can support him, But upon reuniting with Felix, he realises that he can't stand being around him because it makes him feel like a child again

being around Felix makes him feel like he's losing that control again back when they were young because Felix just won't see him eye to eye

IT SERVES AS SOME SORT OF REMINDER WHY HE DIDN'T WANT TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO HIS BROTHER ON TOP OF THE FEELING LIKE A MONSTER BIT

HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS FAMILY IS SO AWFULLY COMPLEX TO ME GODDD I AM SO CRUSHED!!!!!!!!!!!!

The thing is, Seeker kept hearing Felix talk about his brother with so much love and pain, that she only ever related to him because her feelings for the Informant were growing and she began to feel similar things, but in a romantic context.

Then when Harry revealed himself to them both, Seeker was like : "Yeah Felix, I get it even more now. We would both sacrifice ourselves in every way for him. Not to mention he would return the favor tenfold. And vice versa."

Seeker and Felix only grew closer after that, not only because they were now in-laws in all but name, because they are the two people who know and understand Harry the best. They truly have an unbreakable bond.

Something I think might be important is how similar Felix and Harry are to their parents, respectively to their father and mother.

While gathering the 'Heirlooms of House Smallcat' collection, we learn that their father gave Felix his sword, and their mother gave Harry her cameo.

Honestly I feel like the sword represents what Felix believes he is meant to do ; protecting Darkwood as mayor. But there is one issue : another similarity to his dad, which is that distancing himself from his family ended up being synonymous to catastrophe ; Edward had strange and scary visions at night in the year before the Curse began and before Harry disappeared, and he never told anyone, including his family, before he died. Meanwhile, Felix became distant with Harry when busying himself with his career, leading to Harry focusing more on his research and finding whatever he was not supposed to and going into hiding. Then with his second family —Darkwood's citizens— Felix hid all the threats he received about the Curse until Seeker came along, and later on he was not really intent on telling people about the substance in the old mine. Maybe doing so would have caused more suspicion to arise around Goodman.

As for the cameo, I am not sure what it could represent. Perhaps Harry's unconditional love for his family and for other people, akin to a (his) mother's love. He is more of an invisible shield than a sword, less offensive in nature, but never hesitant to be if necessary. The gift from his mother implies less glory and power compared to the sword, showing how he is the one operating in the shadows, but without whom everything crumbles, a bit like his mom ; the cameo is the only mention of her in this collection quest (and we don't even have her name yet ffs !!), but she is the mother, and she ran the household and raised those two sons who end up being so determinant for Darkwood. Maybe Harry's proximity with his mom is also why he picked up on hobbies that are considered feminine (embroidery, romance novels, dancing, cooking and baking). Maybe if these help him handle stress, it's because they remind him of home and his mom.
