I lurk here ^-^

So, this all started cuz of Sausages talking in this clip and Penroses comment about Sausage and his magic in the summer kingdom The two he's talking about is Beep Boop aka Robo Sausage and tf!Sausage. "There's two different people technically." "We'll get into more lore about why there's two of them later on, but you know he did- There was a lab explosion.... and maybe, you know, whatever was being done didn't get finished. So, that's why there's not... They're separate. Whatever was happening didn't quite go according to plan."

As for the comment Penrose made it was after Sausage told the professor he harnessed the power of the sun. "Oh! You must be feeling very important then in our glorious sun empire."

It reminded me that one of the earlier books made mention of a solar prince and I figured it might be worth rereading. I'm glad I did! On April 30th Zam found a book in the secret secret library titled Double Soul by Prince Solar. Juniper was the first one to read it though Sausages reaction is interesting "Oh! That's a good one! pick that one up." even more so after he hears mention of solar magic and the author of the book. On top of that it was actually Sausage who suggested that this book could be related to the doppelganger. That the book mentioning Solar was him, Legs is Iron, Bless is Graecie, but then struggled to place who could be Mana and goodness. This then turned into telling the others about the whole doppelganger thing though Sausage said he felt it was really important.

Now this might all be wild coincidence.... It's very very possible that I'm connecting dots that aren't meant to be connected but another interesting thing to note. This was also the same stream that tf!Sausage first shut down in front of Zam and the other Celestial Metals.

Now I'm not saying Sausage is a doppelganger, but I do think this Double Soul book might have been foreshadowing. Two souls within a body, two different people. We also don't know what type of person tf!Sausage was before the lab accident. The reason I bring that up is the book Megii found in a tower on June 11th. Last Tower by The Last Captain.

The tower rose above the capital like a dark spear, its crystal heart glowing purple and white against the blackened sky. Long ago, many towers guarded the kingdom. Dragon riders brought mana from their bond with their dragon, and dragons breathed ancient fire into the crystals, turning raw magic into a shield bright enough to hold back corruption. But the riders vanished. The dragons grew old, scattered, or died. One by one, the towers went dark. Only the tower outside The Capital still worked, though no one truly knew why. We suspect the Queen knew... Its mana crystal pulsed weakly casting a great shield over the city walls. Some nights it shimmered like glass. Other nights it flickered. And when it flickered, things slipped through. Twisted wolves with hollow eyes. Birds with too many wings. Ghasts from the Nether. Whispers that crawled under doors. Everyone feared the day the final crystal went dark. Because when the last tower failed, the kingdom would stand alone.

After reading this Megii asked if captains potentially guard the towers and Sausage said each tower could have had a captain in charge of keeping it safe. Megii then brings up when their roots mentioned a captain. However, they don't fully discuss what that could mean as they get distracted talking about over thinking things. Though this makes his earlier comment of the tower being familiar even more interesting... Did you used to protect a tower tf!Sausage?? This is what Megii said during the roots convo

"My roots spread out into the floor. Three unknown names. One a tree, one a cat, one a copper. Three shadows.... No names. A captain! Three shadows.... three shadows. No names..... Wait, they're slipping? Wait, wait, wait! This is new... The memories are fading? My roots... they're freezing. No memories, a memory forgotten." Before they can think more Megii is freed from the earth and jumps back. Megii is confused as that was different. Like the roots were done with them, not wanting to say anything else. Juniper adds sometimes nature is funny like that as Sausage asks if something blocked it from saying anything else.

Megii continues "No.. They just said there was a freeze with no memories and a memory forgotten by purpose, not by accident." tf!Sausage as explained by Sausage has no memories until he woke up in an apothecary lab warehouse looking building in the middle of nowhere that was exploded with lab equipment and wires everywhere. That he doesn't know what caused the explosion or who, if someone tried to stop it, if he short circuited, or who created him. That when he woke up he saved a mother and her child from the rubble and felt like the sun gave him energy after he got them out of there. The family took him to their home an hour walk away and he carried the child back cuz they were hurt and Sausage was also beat up. He stayed in the barn for about a week to recover and the kid gave him his name silly little sausage. He doesn't know his real name or if anyone is looking for him. He walked around the area for miles and no one knew who he was or why he was there. His backstory before that is completely blank right now. We know he knows one song on the piano, that he has fighting skills, is good with a blade, and knows how to build.

He's gone from thinking he just had a robotic arm and leg to thinking he has more robotics than he thought. Ooc with Mark he confirmed that maybe even one of his eyes is connected and MrMadSpy could blind him if he goes back into the crypt. That something in tf!Sausages head makes him switch.

Now I know thats a lot of info!! But.... That's because we still need to piece together who Beep Boop aka Robo Sausage and who tf!Sausage was before this all happened. This is why I look at the Double Soul book again. One half calls like salvation, warm and radiant, promising healing, truth, and peace. The other half devours hope, feeding on fear, guilt, and longing. Sausage is constantly flipping between being reassuring and optimistic and then saying devastating what ifs that have been known to cause fear and anxiety.
