Omg I cant believe I never noticed that theres a war going on outside the window on the second season opening!

And when Twilight notices, he closes the curtain:

And Yor is seeing him do it, while Anya (who has never seen war) is just happily looking foward.

I am so deeply unwell right now like😭😭😭

hey... horrifying thought... Romeo never actually died before becoming the king of puppets

end of the DLC there's a post credits scene that has Geppetto show up with the nameless puppet box, and while we don't see it crawl out we do see a shadow walking toward Lea before cutting to black and we know Geppetto uses the nameless puppet to fight for him, so it fighting and killing Lea isn't a far stretch.

but Romeo was there, what happened to him?

he's only barely consious, he doesn't even open his eyes, he had a forced double amputation + massive prosthetic attachment done in probably the last few hours, he's not really waking up for a good few days, maybe even a week or two, and even then there's infection to worry about, not just normal bacteria but also the petrification disease... the boy could easily lose a good two-three months to minimal recovery alone. That's not counting physio and PTSD management

but we do know that geppetto worked with the alchemist, and the alchemist were capable of removing a brain and keeping it alive and aware, there are diagrams all over the place and even in his office of the human brain and skull. so... possibly, geppetto takes romeo, and either chips away at his body because of the petrification disease (real or just a lie) or he takes romeo's brain and puts it in a puppet, claiming to have saved him from bleeding out at the Rose estate... He wouldn't have to convince Romeo to fight the alchemist or stop the disease, he already knows what both are capable of. But also now he's hooked into every puppet in Krat, can communicate with them indirectly, gets a notice from the train station that someone's wandering around, not looking sick but everyone else is (or they're dead) and eventually he learns what this person looks like and what train car he walked out of and realizes that those vague half remembered bits and pieces weren't his mind playing tricks on him, geppetto was there after Arlecchino, Lea did really yell at him and fight him or a puppet or something.

he probably has a rough understanding how Ergo and Ego work, He knows the rules all puppets must follow... so he figures (at least some of it) out.

but he also knows Carlo, knows that if Carlo's ego awoke in a puppet capable of killing, of lying, of independence, he wouldn't listen to a damn thing geppetto had to say... but if that Ego was awoken in a puppet WITH the Grand Covenant implemented, Carlo wouldn't be able to say no

notes in the DLC imply that an ego awakening can be helped along if the puppet looks like the person, so Geppetto made P (because he's not Carlo, not anymore) look just a bit different to stave off a full awakening until he could get the arm of god.

also, in the second phase romeo says he's burning up, now I know I saw a post before the DLC that figured maybe Geppetto didn't install fan's in Romeo's man body as a means of control, keep him in the big King costume that can't leave the theater (it's got a giant fan attack guys) and maybe that along with an ego awakened made him feel the burning... like it was psychosomatic. but what if there are still some sensory nerves still there and still firing?

Castiel smells like a rainstorm and talks like rolling thunder.

OH ALSO,,, just while I’ve wriggled my way into here, fierce headcanon that John hates!!!ALL!!! NICKNAMES!,, ALL OF THEM!!! HE JUST ABOUT CAN HANDLE ‘JOHN’ making him, ironically, THE most nicknamed by his cruel cruel brothers

He gets that annoyed lil scrunch of his nose he does when he’s irritated by something but he’s far too patient to mention it. Use of “Johnny” on missions gets met with a short, sharp reprimand though because it’s just not professional to use nicknames on the airwaves. Not on his Comm lines anyway. Plus, if Scott calls him “Space Case” one more time while the GDF are listening in he’s going to set all the showers on Tracy Island to cold for a month. Father would sure have had some things to say about it if he were here… but he’s not so John’s just going to have to maintain some kind of semblance of sensibility in this organization or he’s going to go crazy. (Why did it have to be him who gets siblings who just love to wind him up? Honestly.)

He minds it a little less when it’s a soft, worried, “Johnny?” coming from one of his youngest brothers, when things have gotten rough on the job and he’s shaky and done and just wants to go home. He minds it a little less when he’s tired to the bone and Virgil’s fingers in his hair remind him of their Mother’s ones and there’s that warm, soft; “Ack, Johnny, how’d you even get this so tangled up here? That’s not like you.” He minds it a little less when Scott shucks his shoulder gently against John’s, full of warm camaraderie, and checks “Alright there Johnno?” when he knows his brother has been feeling space-sick.

He minds it a lot less when it’s his siblings and it feels like home.

Nova?

Nova: When were you happiest?                

“Happ…” John blinks, taking a moment to reflect. He’s happy up in orbit. He feels a sense of happiness to be amongst his stars, drifting in 0G knowing the world is safe under his careful watch. But there’s always another rescue or another book to write or observations to make and, while John likes to be busy, it doesn’t always make him happy. He’s happy on Earth with his brothers though. Happy keeping an eye on their shenanigans and making them breakfast and stopping Gordon from putting bleach in Virgil’s hairdye. But gravity is just so much and he’s always got this yearning that he should be doing more. Should be working on something up in space, keeping an eye. Perhaps being on Earth isn’t always happy, as such.

But when was the last time he felt a true, total complete sense of bliss?

“Maybe when I was a kid.” He thinks aloud, “Kids haven’t got any worries or responsiblities or anything like that. Some of my most precious memories are of playing with my brothers as a boy. Of learning new, exciting things in school and of being with both of my parents.” And perhaps that’s why it’s the thing that he associates most with happiness.

“Being a child was swell,” He decides, “But we’ve all got to grow up and find happiness in what we have now too. I love life in space and I love my job and I love my family.” John adds. “I don’t think I could possibly ask for more.”
