hey did you guys know its the pines twins’ 23rd birthday today? I had no idea.
anyway, here’s a thing I’ve been working on for a while. This was originally supposed to be for the show’s 10th anniversary back in June, but I definitely didn’t anticipate how long it’d take and had to push it back to the end of August. It feels like an appropriate way to send off the summer :]
ps: as per gf tradition, there’s a hidden message along the first 10 pages
stay weird etc etc
Thinking about the implications of EP 8, Jerry, a little too much. The idea that death without life is meaningless and life without death is terrifying. The concept of technology and ai surviving far beyond our mortal human existence, and the loneliness and confusion that stems from not being confined to time.
The idea of a bloodthirsty being, such as the Lich, getting absolutely everything he could dream of: all life eradicated in an instant, only to realize that he has nothing left to do for the rest of eternity. The idea of being the only other being in existence, made of metal and wire, and being forced to grapple with why YOU survived. Out of everything in the universe, the trees, the grass, the animals, the people, YOU are all that's left. You and Jerry.
To be in the room with the being that killed all life, and the one being you can't kill. Sure, maybe it'd be easy. You just need to hit them hard enough, and they'd be gone. Forever.
But then what's left?
You. Alone. You'd be the only tree left to fall in the forest, unable to make a sound. You can cut yourself down, but what, then? What. Then.
You see this creature made of electricity and love, talk about the world like it's still there. And for a moment, it makes you believe that you still have a purpose. To have one last person walking around in the fossilized forest is enough, because maybe, if they're lucky, they'd find an axe and cut you down. Maybe you wouldn't know if you could make a sound...
But they would.
Okay, the ending of Fiona and Cake was cute and all, but how the hell are the citizens of the real world Ooo gonna react when they see a show other than Cheers playing on their TV's ?!
Like, imagine waking up, constantly just watching Cheers, and then you hear the damn Law and Order intro for the first time. Like yeah, beating Scarab, and not dying horribly and painfully was cool and all, but I'm more psyched about the new cable channels.
Simon Petrocov has two hearts, and the very existence of this fact implies that Golb possesses an infinite glitch, specifically when it comes to organs. Let me explain my horrific thought process.
During a spell, Ice King, trying to "steal Princess Bubblegum's heart," accidentally brought his own heart to life. If you watched the early seasons of Adventure Time, you probably remember him. Ricardio, the smooth talking heart.
But the one thing I didn't realize was that Ricardio actually never fused back with Simon, meaning that up until Come Along With Me, Ice King literally didn't have a heart. But once he was broken down by Golb, presumably, he was reset back to a time where he did have a heart. Because yknow, humans need those.
So basically, my thoughts are that it'd be insanely easy to harvest organs in Ooo if you ever came across Golb, and yknow, could survive that encounter without being zapped into puzzle pieces.
Maybe it only worked for Simon because Betty wished to have the power to be able to keep him safe at any cost, and maybe that means Simon literally doesn't have a heart anymore, and my whole theory is debunkable... But if that IS how it works: infinite organ farming.
Ultimately it's a beautiful thing~
