I Have A Theory That The Game, By Years Of Teachings, Reciting, And Playing Has The Potential To Become

I have a theory that The Game, by years of teachings, reciting, and playing has the potential to become something beyond ourselves. you can't really win or lose, there's no ruleset to break or cheat because it's entirely built on your own mind. once you understand you start The Game and you cannot stop.

People will say "haha! You made it! You won The Game!" But that's not really it, is it? That's just a checkpoint, a reminder of the thing you avoid itself, thing you cannot avoid in the first place. so let's make it a literal game. Let's have fun with things we can't forget, watch how far you've gone without noticing and feel disappointment as your imaginary streak wipes clean, time to restart the clock and do it again. It's a game, play it.

Or I might just be roleplaying as a prophet idk

:D

"tord-coming-back" theory time cause we doin this

We've seen the teaser. We know the character. The question is, where does he fall in the story? I'm not talking about the timeline because why would they put a bleeding wound where his bandage was if it wasn't to signify that the teaser takes place BEFORE The End? (Also, the absence of his not-so-injured left arm further proves the timeline.)

What I'm actually asking is, will tord take on a protagonist or antagonist role if he comes back? That's really up to the scriptwriters but I'm on the internet so it's PLOT HEADCANNON TIME!!! It goes a little sumn like this:

He starts targeting/pranking/ew classic bullying style (think Dudette Next Door mixed with Spy vs Spy) his friends from afar with an undertone of revenge cause they blew up his stupid robot.

Eventually confronting the characters trying to get on their good side again after the previous step doesn't work.

And then it splits off from here with different story ideas:

(Protagonist) He actually apologizes at the gang's apartment doorstep after failing so much to kill them, characters react as they would, and the boys OFFICIALLY take him back into the group to do more dumb adventures as the Red Army plotline looms over tord as he keeps it a secret or slips up. The whole "at first I hated you but now I don't but I already sent bombs to your location so now we have to fix this together."

(Antagonist) ORRRRR they reject his apology and he sticks with his classic bullying ways, hurting the gang more than he intended to but has to stick with the whole Red Army leader tough guy attitude while secretly regretting his actions. Not the whole "take over the world" part but the "you blew up your friend's house" part. he finally attempts to take control of the UK while the three try to stop him again as he gets closer and closer to actually succeeding. AND WE AIN'T DOING A TBATF SITUATION HERE. HE'S NOT MAKING THOSE STUPID FUCKING MASKS HE JUST WANTS THE GOVERNMENT.

A quick reminder that this isn't The End. If he's back it only makes sense that he'll be here for a while as another one of the boys. But if not, it's more realistic he'll just keep coming back kinda like zanta, showing up to be an antagonist with an actual background and motivations for an episode then dips again until next time. Hell, it's an absolute possibility that the teaser was just a way to get more people to buy the youtooz.

But I'll be DAMNED AND SHOT DEAD if they don't do SOMETHING with his character. Not after that dope ass teaser all hidden and stuff. It's been 8 years man, make this happen.

love u matt :3
