I DECIPHERED MORE OF THE BLACK BOOK & FOUND MISS HOLLOWAY LORE.

TW: CHRISTIANITY

SPOILERS: the Black Book, Miss Holloway lore

It’s pretty solid foundation for lore, but please keep in mind that I couldn’t make out everything, and there might be some mistakes. If it’s not, then I’m a fool, and my eyes still hurting from an intense squinting session means nothing.

THIS IS WHAT I’VE GLEAMED:

“[They] warned me I was a fool to seek out the lords and I [?] [?] but I hope searching for [a/s_?] will [?] [wor_?]. [p_?] of Holoy Blane/Blame(?) found a way [?] in Hatchetfield. And I [lo_?] [?] me [?] [?] [?] pages in the [b_?] what [?] [ago/I go?] myself [?] [?] world.”

“And now [?] with my mind and per. [D_?] of a mind. Into the Black and White.”

I know it’s not a lot, but…

Here’s why I think this is pretty bitchin’ lore wise.

If my assumptions are correct, Willabella was warned that she was “a fool to seek out the lords”, and I think the people who warned her were the Hatchetmen. It’s also worth noting the the very first page of the Black Book says, “You are a fool to seek the Black and White.”

She also mentions someone named Holoy Blane/Blame “finding a way” in Hatchetfield. I believe Holoy Blane/Blame (probably pronounced Holly) is Miss Holloway, and that Miss Holloway may have been the first to find a way to directly access the Black and White. In Killer Track, Miss Holloway changes her name to Miss Holiday— an absurdly similar name.

The Hatchetverse is notorious for having characters’ identities blatantly lining up with their names.

For example:

Man in a Hurry = Barry Swift

Greenpeace Girl = Harmony Jones

Lex and Hannah Foster have shit parents.

Grace Chasity is pretty obvious— chastity.

The Hatchetverse is full of religious themes.

Mainly Christianity based, and the name “Holoy Blane/Blame” could be a reference to “being holy and blameless” from the Bible, said by Paul the Apostle.

“He has now reconciled by the death of his body, so that he may present you holy and blameless, and above reproach in his sight.” Colossians 1:22.

Basically, Jesus died in a human body to windshield wipe away our sins, leaving us holy, blameless, and innocent.

There are three reasons for why Jesus’ violent death was the sacrifice needed to save people from their sins. He says the three reasons for Jesus’ painful death in a human body was to, one: present us as holy, for we cannot be holy without his sacrifice on our behalf, two: as we still sin in this life, his sacrifices provides forgiveness for our sins, so we are blameless, and three: something about innocence. I can’t remember, but you get the gist.

So, basically, Miss Holloway’s deal with the Lords mirrors Jesus’ sacrifice.

She sacrificed everything to keep evil at bay. She goes around, helping those who cannot find answers themselves. I’d say she also mirrors what Jesus is supposed to embody, especially considering she can literally resurrect. I would also say the Foster sisters embody the myth as well, especially when you know that Lex and Hannah are both in shop class, and Jesus was a carpenter.

Hello, fwiendy-wends!

I just want to say I'm really proud of Ted for deciding NOT to touch the Bastard's Box

Hey, hello everyone. I'm a Red Stone, and I want to talk about a musical that I recently watched with a friend.

It's going to be a bit messy, I'm not a writer of journalism.

!!DISCLAIMER!!: I LIKE ACTOR KURT MEGA, THIS ARTICLE WILL BE EXCLUSIVELY ABOUT THE CHARACTERS!

Actually, the article is about why Agent Kurt is a Mega -disgusting person with a complete lack of professionalism in his work, and you are ready for this conversation.

Let's start with the first act of the first part. Agent Kurt is a mega adrenaline junkie. He deliberately complicates his tasks. "Hey, it's almost Bondian. How about without explosions?". However, it would be much more fun if he took his spy gadgets with him.

His partner Owen, it would seem, is the same. however, he has the rudiments of the principles of "do not drink at work and do not litter," for example. He was tricked by his lover Kurt Mega about the time on the bomb timer. Maybe if Kurt hadn't been playing with fire, both of them would have gotten out of the building.

"But that's also the plot of the musical. Kurt made a mistake, lost his partner through his own fault."

Yes. But after all this, after 4 years, he returns to work completely out of shape and does exactly the same thing. He climbs where the authorities forbade, he does it on his own. And when he eventually meets Owen, he blames him for everything that happened on this assignment, forgetting about his mistakes. It's "You're wrong, how could you" and not "Sorry, I was wrong. I had to come back, I had to check your pulse, I'm sorry about what happened. But I can't let you do what you're going to do." Do you feel the difference? He didn't even try to come back for it. He just left it in a building that's about to blow up. Yes, that would be dangerous. But doesn't he like danger?

And how does he treat Barbara? I'm not arguing, she's behaving.... strange. For the sake of comicality, of course. But after 4 years of absence, he just comes to the laboratory, treats it and she employees disdainfully, spoils projects (not intentionally).

I cannot call him, as he calls himself, "THE GREATEST SPY IN THE WORLD." But I can do Owen's.

While watching the musical, my friend and I noted the stuffiness, the sea of spreading cranberries (stereotypes about Russia and other countries) and also regret that Owen delayed the torture too much. Not because we felt sorry for Kurt. No. Because Kurt Mega was still alive. Watching him being tortured was a wonderful emotional release.

I repeat, all of the above applies ONLY to the character, not to the actor. Actor Kurt Mega played his role perfectly, and I am always glad to see him in other works.

Well, this is my first post on Tumblr, I do not know how everything works here, because if there are comments here, I will be glad to discuss this topic in them. Have a nice day, everyone!(✿◠‿◠)
