aYE- thoughts on schlatts death? I thought I was really funny but also actually very in character and it made sense for him to have a non-dramatic death in a way.
Sorry if this question isn’t a very good one djfhfh
ALL QUESTIONS ARE GOOD QUESTIONS!!!
Honestly, at first, Schlatt’s death seemed very anti-climatic. They spent months trying to defeat the main “antagonist”, only got him to die of natural causes?
But the thing is, it works so well.
Schlatt’s character was always one who desperately wanted to be in the spotlight. He wanted to able to rule a kingdom, fuck around, and face no consequences. Despite all the threats he made towards Wilbur and Pogtopia, and the character he built up of being ‘dangerous’, he was all bark and no bite.
He let his greed and gluttony get the better of him, becoming so overwhelmed with his own personal accomplishments/pleasures (ie; working out, drinking) that it eventually consumed him
In the end, Schlatt died alone, with power, doing what he loved, surrounded by people that hated him. And for Schlatt, that’s the ending that works best for him.
And as it turns out, Schlatt was never the true antagonist; His death was merely a catalyst for the inevitable victory of our true villain; Wilbur.
