Life Series Headcanon - Blog Posts

I have an idea that I wanted to share!

What if Oli (OrionSound) isn't part of the Life series because he's actually one of the Watchers controlling it? Before you dismiss it hear me out:

In Jim's series Border Hoarder, Oli is so impulsive and acts almost EXACTLY the way that I imagine Watchers when he gets mad. Most of the time he's just a chill little guy, but when he gets mad, oh boy does he get mad.

Border Hoarder spoilers under cut read at your own risk!

There will also be occasions where he seems to slip out of his mask of innocence and act like someone or something completely different. For example, that one time where he stared at Jimmy while he had his back turned and said, and I quote, "Only one of us is gonna make it out alive, and it's gonna be me." What Oli‽ This series doesn't have one set winner?? And he said it in such a tone like he knew it as a pure fact and with such hatred...ahhhhhh. And the fact that it was directed at Jimmy too is crazy (CaNaRy~)

And that one time that Joel got an item before Oli did and Oli got so angry that he just went and killed them all (meaning Joel, Lizzie, and Jimmy). Joel tried to speak but he was never given a chance. Lizzie was silent. Jimmy tried to hide and, the moment he thought he'd convinced Oli to spare him, Oli turned around and killed him too. Now take note they all respawn but yet, the moment Jimmy is dead, Oli yells, "I HAVE WON! I'VE FINALLY WON!"

So definitely something Watcher-like going on.

In addition, he also voices the snails and trivia bots in Wild Life - the two NPCs with the highest kill counts.

Also I think Border Hoarder needs more appreciation lore-wise. There's so much to work with.

Anyways thus concludes my Oli Watcher rant. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

From the Ashes

Based on the hybrid ideas of @fifthhaemony! I love the idea of Jimmy as a phoenix so I had to draw him

Was I researching bird anatomy late at night for this? Yes. Do I have any regrets? Absolutely not
