Alas Poor Yorick - Tumblr Posts
Ok this isn’t gonna be coherent at all but I have been thinking about Arthur being resurrected. Obviously he’s gonna come back messed up but I’m wondering about the physical aspects as well.
The amulet was also used to bring the prince back, and although it isn’t clear how long after his death it was used, that guy was in full zombie mode by that point. He could speak a little bit, but he attacked Arthur almost immediately, doing the classic zombie things.
So… is Arthur effectively a zombie now? Or did he manage to escape that due to only being dead for what half an hour? Does he still need to eat, sleep, ect? Will he get zombie like throughout the season, putting a time limit on the season? Like how John started forgetting things and drifting off cause of the presence of KiY, will Arthur start forgetting things, losing focus, maybe even becoming more aggressive while John is frantically trying to figure out what he did wrong, what is happening to his friend.
On a somewhat darker element, would he pick up the zombie diet? That would not be good, considering their “seeing death” power.
Would John not be able to touch Arthur at any point otherwise he would see his death again?
On a lighter note, could yorick walk him around like he did with the witch? That would be funny… and probably useful when John’s narration isn’t enough for a difficult task.
But also! Does he need to eat an sleep now? John has expressed annoyance, if only mild, at Arthur’s need to eat and sleep. It’s a part of being human John can’t access. And it’s part of being human no one would EVER expect to lose. Arthur losing a physical aspect of being human (rather than psychological) would be an interesting element to explore. It would also put Arthur in John’s position: without being literally human anymore, he will only be human in his emotions and psych.
Probably Kayne with reverse it if it does happen, but who knows?
cant tell if what i wrote sucks or if im being too critical
