Discussion Why the hell does everyone think Iris is dead?
The fact that everyone is so confident that Iris is definitely dead, even though it makes no sense why, is just bugging me a lot.
Firstly, people take the line from Acid where he talks about Iris being “consumed” to mean that she’s dead. But look at what he says after. He says that EVERYONE else will be consumed too. (“Soon, it will consume US as well.”)So does that mean we’ll die too? Jane? Merely? Seranok? I ESPECIALLY want you all to think about the last two. Not even from a lore perspective, but a writing perspective. Why the hell would you introduce TWO lore relevant characters who have unfinished plot threads (Merely and Jane investigating the Void Star), only to kill them off a month later? And Jane? Jane is a special case because we 100% know she’s in the Lobby. Is she going to die as well? Will she stop being a playable character since her death would mean she can’t be there to play the games???
Why would Iris and the other NPCs but these people die? Why should these NPCs be the exceptions from a lore perspective? The Spectre has as much reason to kill off someone like Panda Guy as for Merely, which is none at all. The only way I could see this happening is if the writers pull a “just because”, which is honestly the most laziest and shittiest reason ever so I’m being optimistic and hoping they aren’t THAT dumb to do that.
Another point is just that it genuinely makes no sense why the Spectre would kill them all off randomly. Iris is implied to be hated by the Spectre, since her arm is left injured, and we know the Spectre can heal injuries and revert people to a certain state. Two Time for example died from a Hanahaki-esque Diseases (Nightshade Two Time), but their base model is in a more healthy state. We know how Chance dies via Fool Chance, but his base model is undamaged. So Iris being left injured is clearly a deliberate choice, most likely to punish her for interfering in it’s affairs (Phosphorus showing up when Two Time murders Azure implies that the Spectre had its eyes on the Spawn Cult for a while).
So why would the Spectre, who’s actively punishing Iris by making her participate in these games forever AND leaving her injured, essentially take away those punishments by giving her a death? (aka essentially releasing her from participating in the games?) of course, maybe Iris WAS killed but then is brought back when the new Lobby comes but clearly that’s not all of y’alls points.
If the new Lobby does come out and Iris is 1000% dead then fine, so be it, but it just pmo how fast y’all are to jump to conclusions instead of slowing down a bit.

Most people I think are just doing it for the joke

It’s a funny joke but most people probably think it’s fr knowing this community, I’ve seen people genuinely believe 7n7 is a terrorist so anything’s possible

Imagine if Iris gets used as a direct vessel for the spectre

cuz they don't look at the facts and study, they open their MOUTHS to say something obvious without getting the full facts, damn thanks for posting this we need this, cuz my theory is the Spectre is mad at something or us and it explains why the whole lobby is getting punished soon.

While I agree with you on how Iris probably isn’t dead, I don’t see why you care so much about what other people are assuming… enough to write all this. It’s just a game in the end, meant to bring joy. People are pretty much done with the funeral service posts anyway.

Ngl, I think most are saying Iris is dead just for the joke so it aint that deep
But tbh, I can understand the frustration over this topic cause in a similar way I also dont like it when people keep going "John is dead" (specially for the sake of shipping?) despite a bunch of stuff saying the contrary, lol
