Round 2: Match 9
"Two Sides of the Same Coin"- Two things that are regarded as part of the same thing. Even if they're very different, they have at least one common thread that helps them fit into this trope.
Propaganda (under the cut):
Hajime Hinata and Nagito Komaeda:
"Both of them grew up talentless in a society where talent is basically everything, where the prestigious Hope’s Peak Academy believed and enforced that if you don’t have a talent then you won’t ever really amount to anything or live a fulfilling life.
The difference between is that Nagito accepted his place as a “stepping stone” for people with talent, viewing himself as worthless unless used as a tool, while Hajime tried to get into Hope’s Peak Academy and discover a talent so he could be confident in his future, taking drastic measures (signing up for an experimental project that ended up erasing his entire personality) to become something more. the parallels between them make me unwell"
Stanley Pines and Bill Cipher:
"They're both conmen voiced by the show's creator Alex Hirsch, but while Stan is just a shyster who spent his life selling vacuums, going to prison in Colombia, and impersonazing his twin brother for 30 years, Bill is a demon who makes deals with people.
Bill throughout the show tricks people into making deals with him that they often regret. He makes a deal with all 4 of the Pines' family members, but only Stan was the one to trick and out-con Bill, which leads to both their demise (Stan got better).
In his last moments, Bill invokes "AXOLOTL", the "ancient powers" so that he may return. In the choose your own adventure book, it turns out that the Axolotl is a giant cosmic being, that made a deal with Bill. It says,
"If he wants to shirk the blame, He'll have to invoke my name. One way to absolve his crime. A different form, a different time."
This lead to a lot of speculation, but one of the most popular theories is called "Same Coin" theory. It says that Bill was reincarnated non-linear into the past as Stan, which explains them having the same voice actor, (tho so do other characters), both of them being conmen, Stan "redeeming" himself by defeating Bill, and why Stan's memory returned so quickly after being mind-wiped to kill Bill."
You are not immune to Narry propaganda on this blog. Y’all do not understand how much I want The Narrator to win this thing! I’ve thought of Narry as the perfect Web Avatar months before this poll and I’m so happy to see others agree (I believe him to be a part of this Tri-Avatar system I’ve created which I’ll link if you’re interested!) . I’ve got a funky AU that I like to call “Welcome to the Stanley Archive” which is a WtNV/TMA/TSP crossover! Cecil already won The Eye poll! If The Narrator wins The Web, I promise to post the first chapter to it!
Onto the argument!
Think about it! He literally controls the entire Parable! Stanley is a perfect source of fear for The Web. There are many theories and talks about how Stanley fears that his life isn’t his own and how his existence is a video game. Narry is shown throughout multiple endings manipulating Stanley into doing what he wants, retaliating brutally when he doesn’t. He’s obsessed with being in control. It’s perfect for him!
Also it’s The Web poll which is my favorite Entity! So go support!

The Narrator (The Stanley Parable) "He literally controls the whole game, while the player is technically in control of Stanley, the narrator does have control of the world around him. He actively manipulates Stanley's feelings and surrounding to get what he wants. He makes a fake wife for Stanley to play with his emotions, he gets angry and spiteful when he clicks the button to turn on the mind-control facility so he blows it up while giving Stanley the illusion he can stop it just to play with him. He also wants to hear how he's the best and his game is the best in the game causing to him to suffer in the skip-button ending. While he's not fully connected to spiders there is a ending where he's connected to tape-recorders and makes it look like they are just him to play and manipulate Stanley more. There is also a bit of the dramatic irony that is the fact he's also trapped in the game which is funny."
Clarimonda (The Spider) ""Die Spinne" reads like a Web statement, and like a statement it can be hard to parse what's really happening from the perspective of someone who is actively being mind-controlled. As such, who or indeed what Clarimonda is is extremely ambiguous. We know that, at the beginning of the story, she had already mind-controlled three people into hanging themselves from the same window in the same hotel room on three successive Fridays, and that a spider was found on or near all the bodies.
When the narrator moves into the room in order to investigate, she appears to him as a pretty woman in the flat across the street and slowly takes control of him. He compulsively watches her through the window and imitates her actions, believing at first that she is imitating his as a kind of Simon-Says-like game. Over time he realizes what's really happening to him and goes into great detail about his helpless terror. At one point he calls for help in a moment of lucidity, and afterward she makes him cut the telephone cord. His account concludes with him writing down that he has imitated her in the tying of a noose and is trying to focus on writing because he knows what will happen the next time he looks at her."
Dude I'm so glad I desided to look at you page after you promised that wonderful bribe that was cross-over fanfiction. Cause your pinned is 100% very cool and swag and right. The narrator is 100% a web and eye avatar n id argue the parable itself is a domain of the spiral. You know, loopin madness n all that.
Ah!! Thank you! I’m so glad you did and enjoy my funky system! Trying to “pspspsps” votes for Narry anyway I can!
Absolutely! I’ve seen The Parable used as a Spiral domain a few times so I absolutely agree! I’m mostly focusing on the people in this AU rather than the places so, Spiral Narrator it is!
I do hope that The Narrator wins so I can talk about The End/The Lonely Stanley as well! Hehe <3!
VOTE FOR NARRY!! HE MUST WIN!
As I painstakingly wait for The Web poll from @bracketsoffear to close, I simply extend a last bit of propaganda for The Narrator. A bit of art I did for my Welcome to the Stanley Archive AU which includes a Web Narry!
Come on fam!! Narry is still in it! We can win this!
