So I've Been Thinking A Lot About Sir Frank. He's This Guy In The Lost Village Area.

ena stop terrorizing the civilians

inspo:

i did this at like 4 am dont judge me

No one:

Taylor Hebert to a group of impressionable twelve-year-olds

Also, "Outworld Red" (idk if that's the actual name, but it's the name of the ost) is a place i really love in ena dream bbq, everything screams "dream-like" to me.

(Well, even more than the rest of the game i mean .)

It's full of familiarity but oddness all the same. It's an infinite network of streets that are noticeably empty. Or at least, there is no one. The doors are closed, and there is nothing on the stalls. The ambiance is oppressive yet calm at the same time. You can run for as long as you want, you will get nowhere.

If you look up, you won't only see that giant dude swimming in the sky, plane looking shapes will appear at some point

They are recognizable as "plane" looking but they are also "wrong", "odd", as if they were the vague memories of what a plane is supposed to look like

I also found some little details, like the electric wires being "cut" at some points

if like me you like to walk around before "going to bed", you will notice strange shape appearing on the street

If you squint, you can try to recognize some familiar things, like eyes, coral, plants, pieces of machineries, playground.... But like the plane, they are twisted, as if they were memories of things

This whole "town" is like what you feel when you remember what you were dreaming about and try to piece things togheter to "fill" the holes of what was lost to dream-land and it's absurdity, and yet remember how strange it was

I tend to "loose time" to walk around there before taking the bed door. I love the music too (WITH sounds effects, sadly they are absent in YT uploads)

Not that i ever got the "blink and you miss it achievment" even if i keep stalling but hey

I can't believe he died just because he hit the griddy too hard

Make worm funnier by killing off just one character in the whole of the book (everyone else lives)

Mr. Gladly. He dies in the first chapter when Taylor shoves him down some stairs, and she gets arrested for murder. But, if I'm interpreting your ask correctly, no one else dies ever, so they have to release Taylor once they realize that she actually killed the avatar of Death, saving literally everyone

Do you do this before or after tequila?

Dear video essay creators. A video analysis is when you analyze a piece of media. No no look at me. A summary, no matter how thorough, is not an analysis. An analysis requires you to draw conclusions about the media such as authorial intent, real-world parallels, discussion about themes/worldbuilding/character motivation, and so much more. You have to stop summarizing something and saying that’s analysis. The Gaylors are doing more critical analysis than you. Is that who you want to lose to? The gaylors?

WHO'S AFRAID OF THE BOSS

If we follow the theory of all Enas being able to be in two places at once, but also in one place at one time, for she would be lost in the other person's mind, and that they're all connected through the mannequins

I kept wondering what the hell she meant by "a giant bathroom, it's not enough for this many bodies" at the end. What bodies? What if she's talking about all the ENAs/mannequins

And the ending at the bottom of the river with the dead Theodora, "i choose to remind you that this place we are in is too far away from your real, physical form. I can only keep you from returning to it", as in, ENA could return to her body all of her own? Another mannequin maybe? And Theodora is the only thing keeping her down in the afterlife?

Then "However, i may make an exception for today. Touch my memories, let me show you a reality, one where you achieved your deepest desire."

First, her memories? So she's actively conscious and aware through all alternative universes?

But most importantly, right after saying that she'll hold ENA's "spirit" here, she says she'll make an exception by showing her memories of an alternative reality. Does that mean she sent this Ena's spirit/consciousness to the one in the universe she succeeded, and the "for he would be lost in the other person's mind" happened and they both "fused"?

And with that ending scene being the exact same as the temptation stairway one. With the code walls, floating mannequins and doors, even flowing bubbles showing that is indeed the same ocean code. Series!Ena glitching in the falling mannequins, and bbq!Ena dropping out of her "skin/shell"

They can't possibly be a hivemind, they'd know too much. But series!Ena glitching in the mannequin for a frame while bbq!Ena is respawning at the post-credit scene, and the other Ena in the cave. They absolutely exist in multiple places at once in some way

Other npcs might be somewhat aware of this, like, they know they can meet multiple times the same Ena, while also meeting them for the first time, because of the whole "two places at once" thing, so they just say "ENA", instead of an ENA, because you never know which one they already met, and which one they haven't met yet, despite them being the same person

And this bit from the horse guy feels way too fitting to be random nothing. Even splitting himself in half like ENAs are

I had to go and delete it myself this morning.

I didn't notice this til my billionth playthrough, but both the text that appears when you interact with this Amoeba Guy, and the ellipses that follow any interaction with any of the NPC's in this room is in Meanie's dialogue text color. Girl is freaked out of her flipping marble
