Im So Normal About This Series - Tumblr Posts

Here have my shitty attempt at that trend that’s probably old now

[This is Panik & Henry and their dynamic is so filled out in a way that makes me cry.]

More info on their dynamic and my hcs and opinions down below

[!Warning! Mentions of alcoholism, Toxic friendships, abusive friendships, etc ahead, be aware and cautious if any of these things trigger you. ]

So Panik and Henry have a complicated relationship from the start, due to Henry being a reformed villain and Panik kinda stealing his lab and stuff. Panik also blows up Henry’s 2000 dollars that were in his car (he lived in his car due to homelessness.) in the first episode of Panik & Henry but y’know that’s fineeeeeee-

Panik and Henry at first have a chill employee and Uptight boss dynamic, but it evolves into more of a Father and Son dynamic, which then eventually evolves into more of a toxic friendship.

Panik does care about Henry, and Henry does care about Panik, but they often have arguments and falling outs’ that usually end in them either leaving for a bit before reforming their friendship or they forgive eachother.

One of the bigger arguments they had involved Henry comparing him and panik to Rage and Jim Davis (Saying that, he was Jim davis, and Panik was Rage [Rage took Jim davis' whole life from him.]) Which then ended up in panik saying Henry needed to leave the lab (henrys therapist was present and thankfully resolved the situation somewhat, but also Henry was drunk, so he forgot what happened.)

It's one of my biggest headcanons that has some evidence backing it up (I guess that makes it more of a theory? Idk) is that Henry WAS a recovering alcoholic until he met and started working for panik, and then he started drinking again (This is shown in the Christmas episode where he drinks a lot whenever panik makes him upset. Henrys therapist also makes notes about this saying, "Henry started drinking again, I thought we talked about other ways to relieve stress like painting." Which implies that he's had an addiction to alcohol before, and this is his relapse.)

Back to their relationship. Panik and Henry often argue and bicker, I made this a more prominent thing in my family dynamic au, but this often results in more... harmful situations. Panik has often told Henry he'd hurt him if he doesn't do what he says(this is shown in the Backrooms episode prominently, and I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't the first time paniks said that.) And usually hasn't cared if Henry gets hurt, but often in life or death situations where it's just them two he depends on Henry to stay alive (Probably because he doesn't like being alone.). Henry loses control of his emotions often, usually crying at the end of some adventures, and getting angry or panik feeling a fake form of sympathy and trying to help Henry, this once resulted in Henry locking panik in a vault for three months I believe it was (panik could've gotten out but how frantic he was to get out didn't help him, since he tried to open the locking numpad side to henrys vault door). Henrys a bit pushy towards panik at times, but paniks often mean to Henry, and I don't mean to say this balances it out but... it kinda does.

Panik also uses Henry often to get what he wants or needs, which Henry does since paniks giving him a home. There's also an ongoing thing after Henry blew up paniks golden vault door that panik wants Henry to get another one, but Henry just makes other doors in place of it, which is a prominent thing in their everyday conversations.

Panik has a clear attachment to Henry, shown in Redstone Ridge prominently, due to him immediately walking up to Henry, unlike anxiety(where they bumped into each other, i think) and trying to get Henry to remember him, I don't think Redstone ridge Henry likes panik all that much honestly. (OFF TOPIC BUT MY MOM MADE SOME BOMB ASS CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES-) but this is also shown in the final showdown war with Jim davis in block city, where when Jim davis tries to hurt Henry, panik Blasts him with his main gun (TFG 10K) and tells him to back off (he also said he had no ammunition just before that). Henry also has an attachment to panik, at first it seemed due to the fact that he gave him a place to sleep, but now it seems like he sees him as his son in a way (He's canonically said to have a daughter, so he's probably got fatherly instincts in him), and usually engages in watching him when panik wants to show Henry something, and he also doesn't mind doing things for panik, or protecting him.

Oh by the way the two people at the end (before the family guy death pose) are Doctor Kalm and Henric, they appear on Frosty's channel!(another character in block city/horrormashfriends) and Kalms first essential goal was to get henric back awake and alive since he passed out and stopped responding entirely. (Also random thing I saw in the first episode of the series Dr kalm and henric appear in(Its called merge city), there was a comment asking "What's this version of henrys name going to be?" And someone answered "Roostery because Henry=Hen [insert a bunch of other rooster and hen stuff]" (Which just fuels my trans dad hc for Henry more.)

I could go on about this for a while but I'll stop for now
