Please Don't Ask Me For Anymore Context - Tumblr Posts

Yep. Now that I got into The Owl House Fandom...I've seen shall we say...questionable "fan" content of The Wittebane Brothers and I just....can't.

But honestly. I can understand how Philip can get hurt from Caleb leaving the Human Realm with Evelyn. Philip possibly looked up to him and aspired to be just like his brother as a child.

But Caleb had to sacrifice literally A LOT for him. Caleb was possibly only a few years older than him (like maybe 5 or 4 years at best.) and he had to grow up at a very young age to provide for him when he probably wasn't able to do the same for himself.

Which also means that Caleb also pushed aside his love life to devote himself to his little brother. Maybe when they had met Evelyn, she had "dazzled" him by not only showing him magic, but he actually fell head over heels for her to the point he gave up being a witch hunter to be with her.

In Philip's eyes, Evelyn's the evil, sorceress who parents tell their children about at night. And that he was going to "save" his brother from potential death.

But, when he actually saw that Caleb and Evelyn were actually happy together, chances were that he was in a really bad state of denial, and felt as if Caleb had purposely left without telling him, or worse...abandoned him.

It was probably that mindset that drove Philip into a rage that eventually cost his brother's and Evelyn's lives. (I think he might have killed her as well, but I'm not sure.) Because at that moment, he didn't see his brother. All he saw was nothing more than a backstabbing traitor, to not only their own people, but to him as a person.

Philip loved his brother, yes. But it was not "that" kind of love, like some..."fan" content has shown. Little siblings can become too attached and possessive of their older brothers/sisters because if they were to get into relationships, or have friend groups that help balance the responsibility of taking care of their siblings, then the younger sibling would feel as if they are being abandoned or left out as it were.

And when you throw in the fact that it was highly implied that Philip didn't have any friends besides Caleb as a child...it isn't surprising that you're going to get one hell of a mess that would spiral out of control sooner or later.

And with the grimwalkers of his brother...it was highly possible that Philip was trying to re-live his and his brother's lives through that clone, but with each time having failed, it just caused him to fall deeper, and deeper into madness, in a way that he can never, ever be redeemed.

However, there could also be a chance that there is a part of him that really is devastated over all the pain and suffering he put millions of innocent people through. But until that happens...he still needs to be held accountable for his crimes.

y’all ever see a piece of fan content about your favorite character that is so horrifically different from what you personally believe and you just
