Analysis Ep95 to Ep99 Vex and Percy are hiding something

I very much caution against putting the cart before the horse. Speculation can be fun, but remember that it’s very prone to error, so don’t get your hopes up. I also advise Ockham’s Razor: the simplest explanation is usually right. And the least dramatic possibility is usually right. That said, it’s very obvious that Vex … Continue reading Analysis Ep95 to Ep99 Vex and Percy are hiding something →

Transcript Ep96 0:22:16 Grog’s Whitestone Tour Hat

Transcript: Hallway drinking party + analysis of Percy’s current mental health, CRC1 Ep084 1:11:11

NOTE: Making conjectures about anyone’s mental health from purely observational information is inherently flawed. I emphatically suggest you don’t do so for real people. It can cause us to make incorrect assumptions about them, misinterpret their intentions, incorrectly assess their abilities, or invite bias against them.
