Hi I'm back on my Little Nightmare bs again ODJSOID
SO, The Crane Wives' "Coyote Stories" and "Foxlore" albums remind me a lot of Mono and Six's silly little relationship, and now I'm here to ramble about it to you.
Never Love an Anchor - Coyote Stories This song, I've already had a storyboard ready for, but it's old as hell so I ain't showing it lmao The song feels like it's a song Six would sing (if she had the skills to L) to Mono, after The Fall(tm). "On some level I think I always understood that these hands of mine were clumsy not clever. And I tried to do the best that I could, but try as I might, I couldn't bring myself to hold you." I've always imagined that in canon (so not my personal feral-child-Six headcanon), Six has always struggled to show affection to people, especially after the events of The Nest. As a result, she's been very quiet and distant with Mono. I personally believe it's because she's become way too familiar with (always understanding, perhaps) people she's cared about meeting an unfortunate end by her "clumsy not clever" hands. She's scared to be friends with Mono, she's scared to hold him and his hand. And as much as she may try to overcome the fear, she could never "bring myself to hold you". "There's a secret I keep tucked inside my chest, with this heart that's guilty not remorseful." Six feels guilty for every misfortune that came to everyone. Raincoat girl, Mono, and most likely some more people. Of course, she wouldn't share this with anyone, they don't need to know, it'll forever be "a secret I keep tucked inside my chest". "There is love it doesn't have a place to rest- but it would've buried you if it settled on your shoulders." She does love people, there is that in Six, but she's afraid of showing that affection, because from her experiences- sharing that with anyone, Mono included, would've buried him alive. It would've hurt and most likely, killed him- at least that's what Six feels/understands. "On some level I think I always understood that a ship could never really love an anchor. So, I did the only thing that I could and severed the rope to set you sailing from my harbor." On some level, Six understood that she fucking sucks ass bro. Loving anyone like her is a death sentence, she'd lead anyone who wanted to be friends with her to their eventual demise, because that's all she's known. No one could really love an anchor who'd weigh them down beneath the waves and drown them. So, Six concludes that the only way to save them is to take the first step- to start removing the rope (bond) to set them free from her. (…) "And you'll never see the reasons I had for keeping my claws away when they were close enough to hurt you." Mono will never, ever know the reasons as to why Six was so distant, because he's gone- and Six can't really… change that. I also wanna draw attention to the word "claws". Six sees herself as a dangerous monster, with claws and fangs and teeth so sharp it'd hurt anyone she met. She wants to keep Mono safe from her. (…) "Do you ever look at me and my two hands and wonder why they never soothed your fevers? And wonder why they never tied your shoes? And wonder why they never held you gently? And wonder why they never had the chance to lose you?" Six wonders if Mono ever wondered why she was so cold and quiet towards him, when he's been practically anything but mean to her. She wonders if he hates him for everything she's done, or more accurately- everything she hasn't done. Six wonders if Mono hates her for not showing him the kindness he showed her.
Okay that was... a lot. As you can see, this post only analyzed "Never Love an Anchor" from the Coyote Stories. This is simply because the original plan of analyzing three songs ("The Moon Will Sing" - Coyote Stories, and "Allies or Enemies" - Foxlore) wouldn't work out. I' may or may not make two other posts talking about the other two songs I had in mind. I'll probably make two other posts about the songs in the future. But for now, I'll leave you with that non-sense. Have a nice rest of your day/night!!

My Head...
WARNING!! BRIGHT COLOURS, possible eye strain???
(I don't know how to censor images please forgive me OIJDISJDOS)
---------------
I love impulse drawings mmmmmmm
NEW AU IDEA JUST DROPPED!!
SPOILERS FOR BOTH GAMES (but I'm sure you guys are chill with it, right?
.
..
...
For those who don't know me, I absolutely ADORE Little Nightmares and OMORI. They're both such silly games and I love them both dearly... so what if... I combine them? Best of both worlds am I rite?!
I do remember seeing something similar, where Mono took the role of Sunny with a Headspace and such-- But what if Six took up Sunny's role and Mono took up Basil's? (and Mari's too I guess but shhh)
Not only were both Six and Mono best friends before an unfortunate event that tore the two a part, just like Sunny and Basil, but like-- One of my friends pointed out that Mono can totally pull off being a Stranger/Headspace Basil in Six's hypothetical headspace. Like... LOOK AT THESE LINES IN THE BLACKSPACE ROOM--
"I just... I waited so long for you to come back, SUNNY... but... you never did."
THAT. MONO WOULD TOTALLY WAIT FOR SIX IN THE TOWER BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT SHE NEVER DOES COME BACK--
"Even seeing you now... It's hard to think straight. I can feel my heart hurting and I want to cover my face and hide."
Mono covers his face, he of course he'd feel hurt. And of course he can't think straight because he's bi-- /hj /hj IT IS JUST-- IT IS JUST HHHHHHH
Okay that's all I can think of regarding Mono-Basil stuff. Anyways have this thing that I drew for this thing. Ignore that I used Hero's expressions instead of Basil's shhhh
I might call this AU idea "Little Akumu" Tell me what you think of it :D
Interests
This is a MS Paint redraw of a traditional doodle I made in class. I kinda just like to think that Mono and Low would get along pretty well because they like to talk a lot. And I feel like they'd both be really interested in what each other likes. Mono and Low can both be bird-nerds and Low can listen to Mono's rambles about music and how cool it is :D
Also, no way in hell are either of them neurotypical. There is simply no way. I refuse to believe.
I don't quite remember where the colour palette used was from. I got it from a collection of multiple colour palettes so--
Alright, that's all I have to share, hope ya'll have a nice day/night!
Reblogs appreciated :D

Ultimate Good Dog Left Side round 3
HI
Here to add some things to the list--
Noone is a bug-enjoyer. During school break, she goes outside to eat her food and just watches bugs crawl around. She also sometimes gives ants crumbs of bread and just watch them crawl around it. I also just want her to love isopods. THEY'RE SO SILLY <3
Low has percussion skills ✨ (Drum-boy)
There was a idea I had where Noone's school tried implementing some extra "culture courses" (spoiler alert, these lessons happened once or twice and then never came back). The most notable lessons was a languages class teaching German and French, as well as a choir-lesson. (choir was a mess and way too loud. Noone hated it)
Mono probably has a lot of trouble sleeping. (Wakes up frequently in the middle of the night, has trouble falling asleep, etc) Late at night, when things are just too much, he'd go somewhere quiet and play guitar.
Low probably broke his arm at one point... I wouldn't really put that past him ngl--(also forgor to add this, but he/them user)
Runaway has a raspy voice
At the old apartment, Noone would hide under her blankets and read books with a flashlight her grandma gave her. She lost the flashlight during the move to the fancy house
Noone is a plant-enjoyer as well Doesn't like carnivorous plants because they eat bugs, and she likes bugs so >:(
Noone was near the top of her class before the water sickness. She doesn't care too much about her grades regardless.

They don't like what they see...
Near the end of chp. 6 of the sounds of nightmares, as Noone gazes upon the giant red eye entity/all seeing eye and its many eyes, Noone takes note of them staring into her...and knows they like what they see....but what exactly does this mean? We have always theorized the eye entity and its many eyes had always maintained a constant watch over the children,
and with Residents like the Ferryman pushing children like Noone to realize the cruel and hopeless reality of their lives, to persuade them into believing the sanctuary they so desperately desire is in the Nowhere, we finally know now more than ever of one of the most crucial details about the eye entity...its preference.
Back when Little Nightmare 2 released, we theorized structures like the Tower and Maw always had a consciousness of their own and were some of many extensions of the eye entity, they were some of the many eyes theorized to have existed and remained linked to the eye entity itself.
When we thought of the Tower, we realized it had been observing Mono and Six through the t.v.'s, throughout their entire journey...and it didn't like it one bit. It disliked seeing Mono and Six together, their teamwork and above all...it disliked knowing they could overcome anything if they stayed together, and had they stayed together, well...the Tower wouldn't be able to keep Mono anymore.
In chp. 3 of the sounds of nightmares, when Noone met the Mall, another living structure like the Tower and the Maw, it tried to offer her everything she could ever desire, only to be left in a state of devastation and frustration as Noone told it she did not want anything from it and never intended to stay. Now, what does all this mean exactly? It means the eye entity has always presented itself as a being who could fulfill the desires of its visitors and Residents...though to a twisted degree...but it could never claim them so long as they did not fully grasp and fall into despair over the true devastating reality of their situation and the world around them, all so they could succumb to its hypnotic light and accept it as their only means of escaping a life filled with nothing, only suffering.
We have always theorized the eye entity detested those who did not crumble at the reality of their tormented lives, who denied the comfort it could provide them, but if what we have theorized over the years is true then, it didn't just hate it...it feared it. We have seen what happens when a child learns to accept their reality for what it is and reject the eye entity's comforting light. Not only do they become capable of resisting the eye entity's influence, they become capable of becoming far greater monsters than the Residents who tormented them, but above all... they could even become far more powerful than the eye entity who continued to watch over them. Much like with Mono and Six, we theorized other children could take the power of other Residents for themselves and harness it to cause devastation onto the eye entity and everything it has built.
We have seen Mono use his power to drag the Tower towards himself and we have seen Six lay waste to every Guest who dared cross her path as she made the decision to leave the Maw, making I and many other theorists realize something...children such as Mono and Six, have always had the capability to destroy the very structures which were desperate to keep them...they were always capable of destroying the world around them...they needed only to realize and accept the opportunities and the truth which stood before them.
We have always theorized structures like the Maw and the Tower feared the loss of their host, because without a host like Mono and Six, and the power they inherited, the Maw and the Tower could not survive, they would be doomed to die...just like the Mall from chp. 3 of the sounds of nightmares (more here), leaving the eye entity to suffer at the the loss of the most powerful structures it was linked to. Although Mono and Six's story remain unfinished for now, this does beg the question...what's going to happen to Low and Alone, our newest protagonists for Little Nightmares 3 ?
Despite spending years in the spiral, Low has never lost hope in finding a way back home, and despite the horrors we know he has faced during those years, Low appears to have managed to persevere through it all thanks to two things, 1. a single piece of paper which we have theorized details the "mythical place" he is obsessed with finding, a place he believes holds a gateway home and will finally allow him to escape the nightmarish world he has been trapped in, and 2. his friend Alone, the incurable tinkerer who can't help but uncover the secrets of the spiral, down to its very source. From what little we have seen in the trailer and limited gameplay, Low and Alone's teamwork has allowed them to surpass obstacles neither would be able to overcome on their own, an all too familiar partnership and an all too familiar scenario we have seen in Mono and Six as they journeyed together through the Pale City to make sense of the Tower/Transmission. Such friendships between characters have always been a comfort to see in the world of Little Nightmares, it has always been a comfort to the characters as well. However, it is this very sense of friendship which has made I and many other theorists realize a cruel and unforgiving reality time and time again...such bonds...are detested by the eye entity who continues to watch over the children.
The eye entity and all extensions of itself, have always been theorized to maintain its survival and control over everything and everyone through the use of its hypnotic light and its many corrupted Residents.
But it is precisely this level of control which has allowed the eye entity to break the will of others and leave them vulnerable to its influence, allowing it to continue to survive and thrive.
It separates anyone from those they held dear and forces them to accept the only hope they have in escaping their cruel reality is by giving themselves to it. Those who fail to realize its existence and the control it has had over everyone and everything, are doomed to fall prey to it and its world…so then....what would happen to Low and Alone if their hopes were crushed??
As mentioned before, Low wants to find a way back home and escape the spiral, while Alone wants to follow the secrets of the spiral to its source. The two of them have thus far been shown to be loyal to one another, determined to accomplish their goals together...and yet...perhaps it is this very hope and drive which has displeased the eye entity.
What am I trying to say? Well, if the eye entity truly has a preference for those who have lost all hope in their lives, if it truly wants children like Noone to surrender themselves to it, to its world, and if the Residents are truly devoted to helping the eye entity accomplish it all, then...what would happen if everything Low and Alone believed in was put on the line?.... what would happen if whatever it is they found at the end of their journey... was not at all what they hoped it would be? Would they fall into despair, turn against each other and relinquish themselves to the Nowhere, to the eye entity itself? ... just as Noone did near the end of chp. 6...just like Mono did to the Tower near the end of Little Nightmares 2?(more here).....or.... would they discover the same truth Six did about the all seeing eye(more here )? Discover what it planned for them, what it did to them, and if they did...would Low and Alone make the decision to accept their cruel reality for what it is.... and fight against the very creatures, the very world, which has and will continue to torment them?....honestly who's to say.
At the end of the 18 minute gameplay which was released to the public back in 2023, we see Low and Alone together as a dark mist slowly surrounds them, the same dark mist Noone saw in the Halfway place(the space between the human world and the Nowhere), the very place the eye entity has always been hiding in.
As Low and Alone stay close together, fearful of whatever is behind the mist, they take comfort in each other's safety as they hold each other's hand. As the two hold hands, all we hear is the sound of whispers beyond the dark mist, whispers we know all too well as the whispers of the eye entity and its many eyes...the eyes are watching Low and Alone, two children who continue to surpass the spiral together...and they do not like what they see…and if they do not like what they see, then....what will they do to Low and Alone?...I guess we will have to wait and see... For now, it's just a theory...a Little Nightmares 3 theory.
Cheers to another year of little nightmares! 👁📺🎶
Mono and Collector Doodles 📺🌘
There's something charming about these two possibly immortal and most certainly traumatised children. Like... They're both stupid (affectionate), absolutely terrified of being alone, overprotective of their one and only "best friend", AND they both were locked/trapped in a liminal space between time and space for an undefined amount of time! They have so much in common! They'd be besties 💖
'It's been an eternity in here.. Six' i think Mono/Thinman would make a good analog horror monster
Little guys :'3c
isn’t it funny how the little nightmares fandom is where you can freely demonize a child
you know, the fandom for the game where violence against children harms the children and makes them develop unhealthy coping mechanisms that furhter feeds that cycle of violence
and where children left to fend for themselves aren’t always making the most rational decisions for problems they shouldn’t even be having at that age
and where children sometimes make those irrational decisions at the expense of others, especially those who have hurt them enough to earn this sort of clouded judgement and twisted morals.
so really they should at least be understood why they would make such decisions in a situation that the dangerous world forcibly put them in in the first place.
but that’s just me
