I hope this is the right place to submit. Sorry if not. But what if hermit!Tommy one day finds about the S6 demise game. I reckon he doesn’t believe it at first, bc even though he knows there’s no canon death here, why would they play a game you would die in? I reckon he would question why anyone would want to be a ghost like his brother?
It does sound a lot like the principle of canon death, which is why the hermits are so reluctant to tell this story at first. They emphasize that it was all pretend, a little game. Get killed once, then you have to dress up like a ghost and take out the others. Last one “alive” wins. They have pictures. Not of the deaths, but of the moments of life. There’s pages in Stress’s photo album of the hermits playing risky Demise games, goofing around in a giant floating haunted house, sewing their ghost costumes. Tommy critiques said costumes, judging based on accuracy.
