i have a billion things to do but i'm tired and really want to show you my updated ✨️tmasona✨️. the dark aligned journalist who mostly interferes with the institute, maybe helps from time to time but they still don't really tolerate her there. doesn't know about the fears and most likely only knows about three or four entities. certified monsterfucke- monster hunter, half of his life hunting creatures of the dark and maybe something else recently. :) not related to the eye, but due to the specifics of her job sometimes unintentionally feeds it
i really really like how michael and helen represent two sides of the spiral.
michael speaks slowly, emphasizing everything, giving you the idea that he's lying to you, but you're never quite sure. and that's the fear. that your own mind is lying to you, that you're going insane, that you can't trust anything you believe. this fear was present in michael shelley's life very prominently, from his childhood all the way to the very nature of his death.
after a while, though, helen speaks with confidence and certainty, leaving no room for doubt, you know she's lying. you know she is. but you can't prove it. and that, too, is the fear. that you're right, but nobody will ever believe you. that it's all fake, everything society is built on is fake and you're the only one who knows. and i feel like the little bit that we know about helen richardson also embodies this fear: she was a real estate agent, a very stereotypically deceptive job. i don't think it's far-fetched to say she probably lied quite a lot to her clients, all while aware of the reality of the situation herself. the idea of being the only one who knows just how fake everything is but never being able to tell anyone.
i think it's so cool that they both became the source of the fear that marked their lives.
thinking about this one au where michael distortion continues to work in the archives after michael shelley's death because apparently you can't leave the archives even if you aren't you anymore
