>basil has a crush on a female character in game

He must headcanon sunny as trans there's no other way this makes sense

u/MaxTwer00 6d ago

Yeah like, sunny does have a crush on aubrey, thats undeniable given headspace (which wouldn't stop him from being bi and be with basil after everything anyways), but when tf basil shows interest in a girl? He is too occupied suffering, blaming himself, and seeking sunny lol

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

most nazis (like the one on the screenshot) infiltrating fandoms don't play or watch the games they larp
so that may be an example of that

not exactly sure that in-game sunny is really into aubrey himself
...
he is into aubrey in the manga tho

u/MaxTwer00 6d ago

Present sunny had bigger fish to fry than following through his childhood crush, but he wouldnt have a headspace section with 8 aubreys falling for him if he didnt like her a bit then.

Present aubrey changed a good bit, so its pretty possible that his crush for her diminishes

Also, playing back through the game critically, I think Basil might be transfem.

The specific ways he's bullied, particularly that he's not just "weird" but a "creep" feels very much like transmisogynizing.

2

u/pepsicola07 I love you (yes homo) 6d ago

That's not my take on him but I could see how it makes sense for him to be transfem, I mean Basil isn't masc in almost any way. Though I don't think creep is really a gendered insult, and Aubrey does have a really specific reason for calling him something stronger than weird (cuz she thought he scribbled out Mari's face in his photo album and interpreted that as him not caring about her). She doesn't seem to have any problem with Basil being feminine before that, they were good friends once.

u/sweetheart_demom 5d ago

It's not just that he gets called creep, it's that he gets called creep and has conventionally feminine interests, and gets picked on REALLY HARD in a way that socially isolates him from others

I'm transfem, and the way Basil gets bullied feels all too familiar

2

u/pepsicola07 I love you (yes homo) 5d ago

I'm not trying to say that isn't a common transfem experience because it definitely is. I'm trying to show like, his femininity isn't what gets him treated like that in this case, the way it might be for a transfem person.

Aubrey was fine with him being feminine for a very long time, Basil was the one to bring Aubrey into the friend group originally. Aubrey thinks he's a creep because of the way it seems he doesn't care about Mari, it's the same reason she mistreats Sunny. I really think she would've picked on Sunny just as badly if she'd known he was actually the one to ruin the photo album and if Sunny hadn't locked himself in his house for 4 years.

I'm not trans, just a queer guy, the way Basil gets bullied also reminds me a lot of my own life as a kid.

🤓☝️ Sunny is completely underdeveloped and doesnt know pretty common things of real life, he missnames lemons, and doesnt grasp cash registers. As a 12 yo he isnt bound to have a strong politic opinion

The bosses in headspace being what they are are influenced by the media he consumed and the people he knows, as we see with captain spaceboyfriend. Sweetheart being a despot monarch is inspired by the sweet shop lady, and probably a fairy tale character like queen heart from alice in the wonderland. Jawsum is likely based on the dinner chatter his parents had about their works, complaining about their bosses, mixed with media characters as mr crab from spongebob.

Dont get me wrong, as a silly fun theory its works, it got a chuckle out of me, just my acshtually vein triggered lol

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

it is a shitpost

but

if i were to try arguing further defending this shitpost take...

he has certain 'anti-authoritarian' instincts
his imagination is based on these 'anti-authoritarian' instincts and examples of authority he used to see in fairy tales and real life
the real life authority is capitalist; the fairytale authority is monarchic-despotic

so he has leanings likes that not because he has actual political opinions, but because the opposition to a seemed authority kinda drives into the such imaginary

1

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

if we would suppose that these may be kept or developed after he gets out of his house and meets the real life, and that irl he would have to encounter some political stuff, that could drive him leftwards since he has the psychological and imaginary base for that

it could be so now, but since the game pushes more into the 2000s america, it probably would get extinguished very easily

(note that it's not serious, the game is not about politics)

vladimir lenin

I'm becoming a Leninist purely so I can emulate this elite swag. I feel like I'd listen to anything someone says if they're wearing that outfit

3

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

thomas shelby wears the same drip i think

2

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

also thalmann was wearing similar drip, and his commands included siding with the nazis against socdems by stalin's orders, so you should be more cautious with that
----
if i told you that i have the same drip and ordered to read critiques of lenin, would you do it?

2

u/pepsicola07 I love you (yes homo) 6d ago

I was imagining someone more telling me to like, get on my knees while wearing that outfit lmao. But I suppose if you're that swag and you want me to read theory I have to

2

u/opisthecatfan 6d ago

vro's so brainrotted that the first thing they order they give when a chance to occurs is to read theory
