Listen I love his creepy little slenderman form as much as anyone else, and I do find him adorable at times, but DAWG! AIN'T NOOOOOO FUCKING WAY THIS RELATIONSHIP AINT DOOMED!!!

You cannot convince me that there's a happily ever after ending to this game after the sheer amount of mental and physical damage that it wrought on both sides. MCs drugging and forced amnesia is insane. Khol knowingly making a promise that would destroy him from the inside out to keep you happy is insane. Him being implied to have killed or done something horrible to Phoebe is insane. Aint no way boy.

I'm so sorry but the amount of abuse in this timeline is just gonna have to have that doomed yaoi ending mate.

Human form Khol was physically healthy, mentally healthier (he ain't all the way there but he still had his sanity type shit), and had a much better self view because he was "beautiful" from eating meat (YOU'LL ALWAYS BE GORGEOUS TO ME KHOL), and most importantly, HE WASN'T FUCKING KEEPING YOU LOCKED UP AND DRUGGED IN HIS BOARDED UP HOUSE AND ACTIVELY STARVING TO DEATH!!! That's just a line pushed past the point of return naaahhhhh.

Him and MC was cute as hell in the flashbacks. From the little we've seen, that was as close to a healthy functional relationship as we're gonna get. I love writing fics for this world and this story, but pretty all of I'm I'm going to write will have Khol as a human because that's just the cuter option and I'm not really one for elaborate angst, especially with the fuckery we see in game.

Now☝️... I'm also kind of tempted to write things that have us avoid the events of YMTHAH. I will never not be delusional about this being somehow avoidable. Fandom is a place for my delusions!!!

I don't know what caused MCs original memory loss issues, and I don't know the events that directly lead to the No Human Meat deal. I'll have to wait for an in game explanation for this before exploring it more. Maybe YMTHAH is inevitable and maybe not idk but until we know more about our relationship with Khol, I'm going to lean towards the happier ending. I like happy endings.

That being said I am currently working on a fic that's kind of angsty? Lmao look at me contradicting my own tastes. It's from Khols POV and it's about him coming home covered in blood because he forgot that MC was staying over at his house (they made these plans like a week prior and then both got slammed at their jobs) and MC is both worried and a little suspicious because their boyfriend is covered in blood that. Doesn't seem to be his. And MC just washed his hair and face for him, but they low-key aren't really looking at him and he has to deal with those emotions and try to come up with a reason for all this blood. Trying to get a better understanding of Khols character for this though cause I don't want him to be ooc... (Uhhhh JULIAN IF YOU EVER READ THIS JUMBLE OF BS PLEASE THROW ME A BONE KING 🙏)
