My Brain Is Still A Bit [dial Up Sfx] Rn But I'll Be Back To Normal Tomorrow. In The Meantime I'm Thinking

my brain is still a bit [dial up sfx] rn but i'll be back to normal tomorrow. in the meantime i'm thinking of henry's whole thing with "family". i think i mentioned it in my one long post but in my opinion he views family as like... a bargaining chip, something that every animal and person looks for but something that means relatively little to him comparatively. he's above that. he doesn't need to rely on people. it only wounded him and clearly anyone who still counts on others instead of their own logic is just foolish. animalistic. primal. so he calls william "family" and pushes this idea of family, but then when dave actually wants to be family (in a true, human sense rather than just as an abstract concept), henry grows disgusted and infuriated. because the idea of family is beneath him. or at least he thinks it is

do you have any Dave Miller headcanons you'd like to share with the class ... :3

oh god DO I. please note a large portion of these are influenced by my sister since she's The dave miller writer to me she's so good. as always under the cut since idk how long this'll get

this goes against some things directdoggo has said sort of? but i don't really care i respect doggo as a creator heavily but i personally find this interp much more compelling. davetrap and flipside dave are basically two extremes on the same scale and at the end of the good ending of DSAF3 the two halves of dave's soul "gelled" together -- the bitter acceptance of the fire on davetrap's end mixed with dave trying to accept that jack was leaving forever let them finally "agree" and click back together. so the "thanks for putting me back together" was literal unbeknownst to either of 'em

i also headcanon dave as asexual . he does it with hookers for the adrenaline and jack's like you know you can just stop if that makes you feel shitty. and dave's like. Holy fuck sportsy

he made his organs himself after henry removed them! dave just figured that they were nonfunctional after how many times he'd died or something like that -- he honestly just avoided thinking of it too hard. so he made his own mechanical organs! that's why they're ourple. he has a color motif to keep

he hung up that photo of him flipping off the camera in the spring bonnie suit at every 80s location he worked at. Hate him (lying)

i dont actually personally interpret him with a lot of the more monster-y features that ppl sometimes do like a tail. nothing against people w/ that headcanon of course but a big part of dave's arc to me is how he was always human and he was made into a monster by henry ("william is a monster. MY monster.") but that doesnt remove his humanity especially when he does want to be seen as a person deep down. idk. hes cool

tying into my "jack is so autistic about fazbender's" idea i think that's part of why dave(trap) made the tapes. he knew jack would immediately jump on something like that

post-dsaf3's good ending i think dave would prefer going by bill. william feels too professional and will/willy obviously have connotations. same with dave/david

dave believes that using cameras to watch those you love because of a misinterpretation of henry using cameras to watch over him. dave found them after henry disappeared and was like oh he was doing this because he wanted to keep me safe! hence why dave ends up doing it w/ jack. in his arc in dsaf3's good route i think he realizes this is weird and unnecessary as his view on henry is broken down

i like to think the flipside lets you change and influence your appearance to a degree so initially dave presents himself as more "ideal" because he wants to be viewed as good without actually confronting any of his bad deeds. its also why he acts like davetrap is so much more seperated from him than they actually are. flipside!dave shows himself as having no scars, less spooky eyes, a shinier badge, neater clothes, etc etc. sillier more davesport-y headcanon: dave ends up slowly becoming more like his real self because he keeps hearing from dee + steven/overhearing convos between them and jack about how jack kind of misses how dave used to look. by the henry fight, dave is largely back to his normal self!

he/it. gender: inconclusive

remember when dave says in dsaf1 "nobody leaves [fazbender's] outside of a body bag"? me and my friends have a running gag that before the kiddin killing dave tried to propose a plan where jack just threw dave out of the restaurant in a body bag

i do believe ive found myself into a new fandom

dsaf is pretty cool im gonna play the games

Hello, tumblr user. Before you is a tumblr post asking you to name a female fictional character. You have unlimited time to tag a female character, NOT a male one.
