Okay, I have some more thoughts.

First off, I was wrong about Alex. Because of his almost robotic behavior in #80, I thought he was just a puppet of TO, with no will of his own anymore. I think this shows that while he's completely batshit, he is in control of himself.

He claims to want Tim dead because "this" ,which I presume means the whole Operator situation, won't end until then, because Tim is the source. But before that, he says "I thought it was me". That begs the question: if Alex thought he was the source of the trouble, why didn't he kill himself? He obviously thinks the source dying is the proper course of action since he refers to Tim burning to death as "the right thing". Is that just bare-faced hypocrisy? Or something else?


Alex is looking out for one person: Alex. He doesn't care how many other people suffer, so long as everything returns to normal for him. Killing himself wouldn't have been an effective solution (since he'd be dead). But killing others isn't an issue.

 		So for the on topic first, I feel Alex truly is a good guy. At least he started out meaning well for everyone involved. I guesstimate then escalations happened from "I can't save them all, one death for many lives." to "They're all corrupted, I can save myself, no THE WORLD!!! If I finish off the source"

Then for the off topic

No matter how disliked Totally Not Pravado is, that's no reason to tell anyone to kill themselves. He's obviously already a troubled person, what if you really did push him just that little bit farther?

Wishful thinking. But hey, I'm not the puppet master. He's obviously so awesome being the master of his own destiny-- it's ultimately up to him to do the right thing. R.I.P.

Oh, come on, that's pretty harsh. I don't think that's true. Alex's actions don't look like those of a stone cold methodical killer. They look like those of someone who doesn't give a fuck about anything except satisfying some vague sense of justice for an ever widening circle of Operator victims that includes everyone but Tim.

Joseph wrote or said somewhere that "Alex is a victim." He may be completely batshit, but he's still a victim of TO, even though he seemed to be working along with TO at some point.

 		I'd rather not be associated with those telling others to kill themselves.

I have never said anything of the like.

You are all terrible people.

Maybe he's doing all this for Amy. We still don't know what happened to her.

I'd thought that at first too, and I read that a lot on Unfiction. But I think she's totally fuckin' gone. I think Alex was keeping her photo to remember her because she was somehow one of the people "infected" by TO.

It's not like Pravadohornets has the balls to actually do the world a favor and saunter off this mortal coil, so stop worrying so much.

Yeah, but perhaps he's doing this as some sort of revenge for losing her.

 		I'm honestly not sure Alex even understands any of what's going on. His rant this latest entry about how Tim left Jay and Brian behind may have just been projecting the blame, but what if it's what he actually believes? What if he doesn't even realize all of what he's done, or honestly believes that for some reason it was necessary for him to kill those people?

 		Before I post anything here...

I want to post my theory in this topic but it quite long. Do I have to make new topic about it or can I just put it here?

And I want to know can I put Fanfiction here? I don't know who to ask... Sad

 		Hmm. I wonder what spot Alex was referring to when he said that Tim knows where to find him. A lot of people have said the hospital, which would make sense, but I much prefer the idea of it being at rosswood.

The other side of the long culvert where Bruce was killed comes to mind rather quickly. It seems to be a very important place. It's where Jessica went through before being taken, and Alex called Jay and told him to leave when Jay and Tim showed up.

Who knows. Maybe they'll end up going through it and it will end up being hooked up to somewhere strange. I'd really think it would be cool if it ended up linking to that dark world where Tim came across Bruce's body.

Ok, I'm going to regret posting this, but here goes: while I do wish MarbleHornets the user would be more polite, at no point has he said anything that would make me tell him to kill himself repeatedly. So, Serum, may I ask, why do you hate him so much?


On a more serious note, I feel that the inconsistency of Alex's behavior can be explained by him being completely insane. Entry 49 established that a long time ago.

Because everyone else is afraid to voice their hatred for him. You all hate him every bit as I do. So let's just drop the facade, lift the veil and digitally kick his ass all the way back to the cunt he crawled out of. He's nothing but infectious human waste and you're putting him up in the Ritz for it instead of doing what you ought to do and voicing your true feelings. I mean that for everyone. We all hate him, let's not pretend we don't. End of discussion.

Honey, I just don't care enough to feel hatred for him. It's not that I'm afraid. I just give zero fucks about him and skip over any post he makes. You have no idea how much less stressful it makes life.
