am i cooking or am i rotting
oh my god i cant believe i left this in my drafts.
u could say i was suddenly inspired by an idea. but i managed to clean up the ending of petscop 8 a little more! this is edited from the sock muppet video i mentioned, but also w the help of @petscopping and a friend of theirs who also cleaned up the audio from the actual upload a little!
i love how clearly hear her inflection. the attention to detail in this series never fails to impress me. every time i rewatch it i find something new. whack
Okay but I don't see ANYONE talking about this scene where Care is placed in the machine and, instead of playing Care's Melody, Paul plays Paul's Melody, and CARE TURNS INTO A FUCKING EGG.
Not only that, it seemed to me like Paul felt almost uncomfortable when attempting to play Care's Melody. He couldn't eve get past the first note. It seemed like it didn't feel right to him. But with playing Paul's Melody, there's almost a kind of confidence in it. Or acceptance that this is the melody he should be playing.
And then of course Care becomes the egg which, mind you, is covered with yellow and red: the colors representative of both Care and Paul within the series.
IDK if you can get any more trans than that I'll be so honest
Petscop 14
Petscop 14 really scared the shit out if me ( And I swear to god it's an hard thing to do )
I just can't understand what the fuck is going on.
For the whole first part, it looks like Paul can't see what he's doing. I think this has something to do with the DEMO thing, maybe he's stuck in the hall of the house ( the room with the calendars and christmas tree ) and somehow the screen won't move from there so he has to make assumptions on what he's doing when entering the bedroom?
I really can't figure out how that thing is.
But the scariest part of all this is that ... god, there really seem to be something wrong with this game. Something almost supernatural.
I am a fucking skeptic and I don't believe in anything I haven't seen with my own eyes : God, ghosts, aliens, illuminati... I basically don't believe in the supernatural world at all ( and yes, I'm interested in wicca nevertheless but that's another topic and it's complicated. )
But Petscop really has some ... strange vibes on it. Especially this episode. It's like something is wrong, missing, or shouldn't be there... I just can't make up my mind.
Has anyone had the same thoughts? Does anyone know what's happening in the beginning of this episode and why Paul can't see what we see?
Watching Petscop 11, I had to take a few breaks inbetween. This is probably the most confusing episode yet it answers so many questions we've been dying to hear. The ending (in the school) was somewhat confusing and brings up even more questions.
This is also the third or fourth time we've gotten to hear someone mention Tiara.
It also mentions that possibly there is a version of Michael that exists that is still alive and that care may be his sister, or Rainer may be related to him or the both of them. And that there are multiple cares. So far we've seen Care A and NLM. The next step is to go to the school. I also have a lot of questions about the school.
This has been quite the interesting episode and I feel like there may be more soon!
okay so im making a new post abt this since its a little different from my last analysis post. but @petscopping brought up a very interesting point in the tags! that being "nobody is innocent" and he is so fucking right abt that
that was in regards to the objectification of care, and how paul also contributes to that. but like, even characters that aren't explicitly on screen are culpable. specifically belle.
i always get this impression that shes hiding something. she knows far more than she lets on, and i almost have to wonder if its in a way to protect paul? which is interesting since we know how in denial he is about Literally Everything, which is actively harming himself in some way.
she knows. a LOT about this game. like, paul is only recording gameplay to prove that hes "not lying" about the weird game he found. then later down the line after paul gets to the other side of the quitters room and tells her tiara is gone and her reply is "of course." the way paul replies to that too is telling since hes confused as to why she knows somethings up. even earlier than that paul mentions how he was shocked to find "his room" but isnt anymore since it makes sense that the game would be connected to him through belle. not to mention she knows an older version of the game that had the passageway to the caskets. she had played it as recently as 2004. why lie at first?
a little tangential, but i really gotta wonder about her connection to rainer. obviously they were close enough for him to be doing...whatever the fuck happens during a rebirthing event. or whatever he thinks is supposed to happen, i should say. shes heavily connected to tiara in some way, and has a stupid amount of play time on the damn game. if you ascribe to the theory that tiara and in game marvin are based entirely off in game behaviors of real people playing the game, its no wonder tiara seems to be almost...sentient? all marvin does is run around and say shit and like be weird and the game was literally made for him. tiara like. can edit texture maps, and use that to also speak directly to paul thru tool. and because of that, she can speak more directly, and isnt hindered by the p2 to talk mechanic like marvin is.
point is, belle has logged a crazy amount of time into the game. sure you could probably say the hours played is inaccurate, maybe she just had the game left open on a console for what. 17 years was it? even rainer admits its dubious. but imo, it feels more...symbolic? like sure maybe she wasnt playing it for that long. but she had some kind of passive connection to the game in that time. she is/was in contact with rainer. she HAD to be. (this also might imply the game was still being worked on after 2000. but thats a whole nother can of worms)
i cant think of any other motive for her lying about that other than to protect paul in some way. which, in a way, ties back to cares objectification. paul is absolutely denying any humanity to his child self. its ingrained in the very code of the game.
and in some way, belle is also participating. maybe im reading too far into that, but with how much the series is able to tell us abt characters who dont even fucking talk is really impressive so its not completely unrealistic.
unmmm um so. thoughts.
rainer has a clear distaste for rotation. either metaphorically bc the cycle of abuse/trauma, his association with some sort of trauma, or both.
paul struggles with direction. especially with perspective.
im drawing connections where there probably arent any at all.
okay so actually. petscoppers gather round i have a question. wanna know yalls ideas on something. its the note in petscop 3.
whats everyones take on this? ill share mine after ^}^
