BUT!!! the thing is the freakin screenshots don't match up entirely!! so who are those puppets???
So I had a hunch it was like. Broken fixing the timeline and then we lost it aGAIN
Queries: IT'S DIFFERENT THOUGH. IT'S NOT EXACTLY THE SCREENSHOT IT'S DIFFERENT! Aisha: YEAH ITS NOT 100%, NP’s pose is just a lil off and OP’s hair doesn’t match up. Queries: it can't be pancake broken, it's definitely OP on the ground. Ghost posts a crying Chiikawa gif. Queries: how dare you show us an alternate timeline where things end well /pos. then again i think of her post asking us about a happy ending so like. we don't know. but still owwwww. unless this is a timeline when he managed to fix him??? Ghost: the only thing i can think of is like???? last episode potential????like you said it's like an alternate timeline and who do we know who can time travel (assumedly)? broken... so like..... maybe he's able to change it?? i have my doubts, like i'm REACHING HARD but thats what i think of HJKDHGSAJKD. Aisha: Really stretching this here but: is this pancake Broken checking on NP after Cran stabbed him? Ghost, replying to Queries talking about a happy ending: YEAH SHE SAID IT ENDS HAPPILY LIKE??? MAYBE THIS IS A HINT :O Beta, replying to Aisha's idea: That was my first thought too, but it doesn't look like pancake at all, thought it might be a parallel shot in redux or som idk Beta, replying to Ghost's idea of last episode potential: Honestly this doesn't seem far off at this point lol. Aisha: Maybe it’s a combo of these things then? Final ep potential where Broken gets NP to snap out of the magic control? Queries: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. WAIT. WAIT MAYBE THIS PLAYS INTO "I MADE THEM WHOLE". LIKE LITERALLY I SAVED THEM. Aisha: OH. OH. Beta: OH WAIT A MINUTE Ghost: OH MY GOD Queries: please we need a clutch from an alternate timeline where Broken fixes everything. but it's gotta come at a cost. maybe that's why they're in the well

Then Aisha and me (Queries) had two realisations at the same time and then we ALL really lost it
Queries: oh i thought that was nothing it was so dark I had written it off. CLEVERRRRR. Queries then sends an image of a screenshot from Panguided overlaid with Taylor's version of the image. They almost match. Queries also says: "Y'all are cooking. it lines up when you overlay it. sort of." Aisha posts a photo of the same Panguided still that Queries used in her image, and says "WAIT HOLD ON. It’s giving me vibes of this except it’s NP on the ground instead of OP, anyone else getting this?" Ghost: OH MY GOD WAIT THATS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS. WOAH Aisha: DNCIMSNFKK QUERIES DID WE COOK AT THE SAME TIME Beta: OH SHIT Queries: OH Ghost: HOLY FUCK Queries: OH NO Aisha: TIME TO PANIC Ghost: YOU GUYS COOKED SO HARD OG MY GO Marianara_Sauce: OH GOD. OHHH MY GOD Artielas: OHHHH OH NO Beta: OHHH NOOOO I HATE THAT thats going to be a parallel shot i'm not ready for Queries: For her to post that specific frame means it's gotta be something significant. is this brokenposting hours???? Artielas: IF IT IS?? FINALLY MY BOYS ARE BACK FROM THE WAR Ghost: we should just screenshot these reactions and quote that black photo so she knows that we know and she KNOWS WHAT SHES DONE TO US BECAUSE.... OW... OW MY BOYS.... OUCH... OW /LH Queries: man I was redrawing emotes I was not ready for this. Queries, replying to Ghost: oh yeah I'm on it ghost. Ghost replies with a dancing AOL figure emote.

@thetaylorb.bsky.social coming in clutch with this very well reverse-engineered image too
And then Beta pointed the silhouette out properly and-
Taylor B posts another altered version of the image, appearing in black and white. Two silhouettes are now very visible; one puppet lying on the ground and another leaning over them. Ghost: OOOOOOO Aisha: OH YEAH OKAY THATS so weird Beta: OH THATS CREEPY Ghost: omg his neck looks so thin but i think its just the lighting.... this is so freaky /v pos Beta: It does look more like mirrored NP yea Aisha: Halloween's come early this year fodnfjnd. Aisha posts a flipped version of the image. Ghost, replying to Taylor's version of the image said: ok this might be nothing but does the black part behind NP look like a figure to anyone else?? like someones grabbing or hugging him from behind??? with an arm around his neck????? Beta: YEAA KINDA?! Aisha: YEA LIKE SOMETHING IS IN FRONT OF HIS HAIR Beta: No I see it yeaaa. I'm also seeing this. Beta posts another version of the image where she outlines the silhouette above the puppet lying down in red. It bears resemblence to NP. Aisha says: BETA YOU'RE COOKING Ghost: YEAH YEAH THATS WHAT I WAS SEEING Aisha: OOOOO Ghost: OMG YOU NAILED IT BETA Beta: Heck yea!! Looks like two NP's to me

@c0rrupted-gh05t.bsky.social you're so real for spotting this
user Corrupted Ghost said "sorry if i'm posting this in the wrong place please let me know if i am!! i'm not sure if this has been brought up yet i couldn't find it anywhere but.................... is this like sus to anyone else.............. what secrets is she hiding here....................." and posted a screenshot of Vinane's post Corrupted Ghost posts an altered version of the image attached to Vinane's post. The silhouette is a puppet is barely visible and a white vignette sits around it. They say: "NP IS THAT YOU...." Galandrielle says: "OH DANG I SEE HIM!" and Ghost replies "ARIANA WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE /REF" Galandrielle: I see two eyes, so possible NP...? Ghost, replying to her: it could be but the latest broken doll had two eyes at the end of panguided Aisha: OH WELP THATS A CREEPY SECRET IMAGE- good find tho! Ghost, replying to her: YIIPEPEEEE Galandrielle: Yes, and the hair is mirrored, but I don't think that's a huge deal. Unless it is??? Ghost, replying to her: OH UR RIGHT IT IS. I THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS OFF BetaBun: I think it might just be Op with the hair and the shirt, shirt looks brighter then it should if it was Np I think Galandrielle: I also thought that this could be OP, but the hair doesn't look enough like his. Then again, this puppet doesn't look enough like NP either... Beta: His hair is pointing more upwards then sidewards you're right. weird. Aisha: Secret 4th puppet running around somewhere?

it took us a second bUT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
(more reactions below)
a three panel comic of a stick figure with a smiling expression, which changes to a very concerned, wide-eyed look in the third panel. The word "realization" hovers above them, between two asterisks.

We gift thee reaction images with your favourite puppets for all your undefinable needs!!
Art by the fabulous BetaBun :)
Image 1 description: A two panel comic. Broken from Cranbersher's Guide sits on the side of a table with a divider to the left. Their legs are crossed one over the other, swinging over the edge, and they seem content. The table is on fire and a thick cloud of smoke is in the air. In the second panel we see a bust shot of them saying "This is fine." The text has a chromatic aberration effect to it, using a sort of red and blue layered effect. fire continues to burn. Image 2 description: A two panel comic. Broken from Cranbersher's Guide sits on the side of a table with a divider to the left. His legs are crossed one over the other, swinging over the edge, and he seems content. The table is on fire and a thick cloud of smoke is in the air. In the second panel we see a bust shot of him saying "This is fine." The fire reflects in his eyes as it continues to burn. Image 3 description: A two panel comic. OP from Cranbersher's Guide sits on the side of a table with a divider to the left. His legs swing over the edge, and he seems content, with his hands in his lap. The table is on fire and a thick cloud of smoke is in the air. In the second panel we see a bust shot of him saying "This is fine." The fire reflects in his eyes as it continues to burn. End Image Description.

We are also unanimously agreeing canon!Cran needs to get karma so badly
Also here, two more things i missed that are just appreciating cool details :)
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
And then… we come to the end and what comes after
At the moment it came out we were. Not very hopeful for a happy ending
But we know there will be at least a satisfying one, whatever it is
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
Yeah definitely projecting hard there canon!Cran, what happened to you, why did the world beat you down so bad you decided to do this

Also Cal theory is alive, somehow (mostly joking, we respect the fact FD is private now)

love this shot </3
and some food for thought from Unknown and Churri.
Pancake official name confirmed /j
And also oh God the timeline where that happened sounds. very very bad not good

I really like Unknown’s thoughts here and this note from akiragatr on tumblr. How would that tree really grow? How would Broken form? For growing, it feels like it needs a big sacrifice with such a freeform system like chaos magic…

Also yes we’re writing a wholesome AU to cope, no you can’t stop us

Still the same topic-
Don’t mind how some of these seem out of order in terms of time, I’m just arranging them in a thematically fitting way
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
It’s also this episode where we really see echoes of OP in NP. It’s noticeable in “subsist” with Broken, but here is particularly noteworthy through a lens of grief and vengeance.
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
These newfangled puppets and their blood and bones… back in my day you had to put the stuffing in them! By HAND!!!
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
@artielas.bsky.social noting why NP takes his face and the parallels to walk cycles (and another metaphor too)

The discovery of the spectrogram message in 2020 by Unknown, Sticc and Lumoize came full circle as well, sneaky sneaky (the tree is a WiFi router for souls)

Andddd windows lmao

theclanbersher.bsky.social
Alright here’s the meat and potatoes, we’re talking theories and details here
@midnightnautilus.bsky.social’s thoughts on the voices was really interesting
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
Sidenote: @unknownisaaaaa.newgrounds.com did a tarot reading exactly one week before the episode dropped focusing on the guides, and i had this last minute theory… yeah apollo could you lay off the dodgeballs??? 😭
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
we pet the puppets as a comfort measure (those emotes are animated fyi) and i personally cannot stop thinking about OP’s monologue (amazing delivery but ow ow ow ow ow *crying* ow ow ow)
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
Next up, obligatory emotional anguish posts because. Dear god could OP’s death and NP’s stab have been any more harrowing (the answer is yes, I am so afraid of what worse things could have happened)

Our server icon is currently some art by (beta) with OP reenacting the ‘this is fine’ meme. I think that sums up the state of the server for the moment
June 1, 2025 at 8:35 PM
theclanbersher.bsky.social
Yeah the emotional whiplash uh. Hit like a truck if it wasn’t clear
gee I wonder what could have caused it

Initial reactions! Everyone lost their shit!!
