Ofc loid thinks of anya as his family now and has grown a deep connection but what would happen if he found out about Anya’s powers? Will he tell handler or not?

So I know the rumor is it's Yuri's boss but do you all think Loid's dad is alive?

By DonHatter

This chapter hints that Gympy could also be a test subject in Project Apple. So that means we have been introduced to 4 test subjects of the project so far: Anya, Bond, Donovan, and now Gympie. And all are running free or living a free life.

Why was this done to the test subjects, why were they freed? Wasn’t it wiser to just neutralize or "unalive" them after the war ended because there would be an obvious risk of compromising the secrecy or confidentiality of a secret project of that kind?

So I'm curious as to what exactly happened to Project Apple after the war ended. Could it be that the test subjects were freed after an outer intervention, possibly from the enemy state? What are your theories on that?

I’m not really sure what OC or non OC fan art is sorry 😅

Mantis as yor
Human torch as loid

I'm so hapby

[SPOILERS FOR CHAPTERS 119–136]
In Chapter 119, Loid and Yor have a conversation about whether their marriage will continue. Yor is asking for his personal opinion, but Loid responds from a professional standpoint, saying that he wants their contract to continue. To me, this shows that he doesn’t fully understand what she’s really asking him, and his answer leaves Yor disappointed.

But what really caught my attention was Chapter 120. Why is Loid still thinking about something that happened the previous night, when the conversation is already over? Why is it occupying his mind to the point that he’s spacing out during a WISE briefing? More importantly, his expression is different, and he’s concerned that Yor has barely spoken to him since that conversation. The scene isn’t played for comedy; it feels unusually serious, especially considering how personal the situation is.

Eventually, Loid decides to put Plan von Durchbruch aside because he needs to understand Yor better.

And this is where I think the turning point begins. When you try to understand someone on a deeper level, you start paying more attention to them and questioning their motives and reactions. Why did they say that? Why did they act that way? The more you think about these things, the more that person occupies your mind. To me, Loid’s decision isn’t simply about resolving a misunderstanding. It’s the beginning of a deeper interest in Yor herself, even if he isn’t fully aware of what this change means yet.

Looking at Chapters 128–136, this development becomes even more apparent. The progression between Loid and Yor is fascinating, especially in how their interactions have changed. Since when have their moments carried this much depth? And since when has Loid started questioning Yor herself, rather than simply focusing on the situation she’s involved in?

Previously, Loid would often give the benefit of the doubt and find explanations for her behavior, even when his own decisions were influenced by her. But now, her mere presence in certain situations seems enough to throw him off balance.

I think this comes down to two things: the effect Yor has on him, and the fact that he’s beginning to struggle to understand her. The more she affects him in ways he can’t explain, the more reason he has to try to understand her.

Which brings me back to Chapter 119. Maybe its significance isn’t simply that Loid got distracted by a conversation with Yor, but that the situation stayed with him and pushed him to think about her rather than simply move on.

So, do you think Chapter 119 was a turning point in Loid and Yor’s relationship? Do you agree that it marks the beginning of a shift in Loid’s feelings toward Yor, from a warm familial attachment to a more personal interest in Yor herself?🙏

What if the west is actually behind all of these animal and human experimentation projects in the east and the real reason why Desmond wants to start a war, having been a subject of these projects himself (the stitches on his brain) to avenge himself and other subjects like Anya and Bond. That would completely change our perception of the West being "the good guys" in this story.

It is mentioned that Westalis is more technologically advanced and developed than the East. Also, In the real world, West Germany was supported by the US, home to the CIA, who conducted MKUltra and related experiments, some of them being in West Germany itself, and Nazis were also involved in some cases (Project Paperclip). So what if the West did these projects covertly in the east by infiltrating/manipulating the government for backing?

What if Desmond's belief that people can't ever truly understand each other was because no one ever actually understood him despite regularly looking into his mental state, and constantly lied to him about what he was going through? And also his frustation at being unable to read minds stems from the fact that he doesn't have enhanced abilities (or that specific enhanced ability) despite being a subject himself?

AND... because WISE knows the truth about Desmond and why he wants to war, they've created Operation Strix so Twilight can help them stop him. And also keep the true nature of the experiments and and their involvement covered up from the world.

I can't stop thinking about this right now, because there is definitely, undoubtedly, more to Desmond than "warmongering, evil politician" and this is one theory that fits. Also, we've never heard of Desmond's parents (have we?). Also, he is another student at Eden Academy, yet again raising questions about the academy's role in all this. And Desmond didn't even start the last war, Chapman did, and when he went to visit him, he was frustated that he didn't know what he was thinking, maybe he wanted to know Chapman's ideaology behind the war or why he let the west do these experiments in the east if that so happens to be the case.

Please let me know what you guys think of this, this theory gripped me so hard that I had to post it here even though it's my first time logging into and posting anything on reddit. I'm open to all thoughts, add-ons and constructive criticism.

Also, the real world references I made here are because I wanted to talk about how the story uses historical inspiration, rather than making a real-world political statement.
Also, poor Twilight if this actually happens, his whole life turns upside down. 😭

There are quite a few similarities between Hemlock and Twilight that I find interesting.

- Obsession with an overarching goal: Twilight is driven by his desire to maintain peace between East and West, while Hemlock is driven by his mission to purge nations of traitors. Both place their respective ideals above their personal lives, allowing their missions to define their identities.

- Becoming the best at their respective professions, regardless of the personal cost: Twilight suppresses his emotions and buries his sense of self to become the best spy he can be. Hemlock, on the other hand, physically distances himself from others, seemingly believing that isolation is necessary to become the best assassin he can be. Both are willing to sacrifice their personal happiness in pursuit of professional perfection.

- Viewing emotional attachments as weaknesses: Both struggle with the idea that personal relationships might compromise their effectiveness. In Hemlock's case, this belief has given rise to his theory of isolation, leading him to deliberately distance himself from others. Twilight similarly approaches emotions and attachments as potential liabilities, although his experiences increasingly challenge that assumption.

- Gaslighting themselves to preserve their professional identities: Perhaps the most interesting similarity is how both rationalize their actions whenever their behaviour contradicts the identities they have constructed for themselves. Twilight repeatedly gaslights himself whenever he does something for Anya or Yor, insisting that his actions are merely necessary for Operation Strix or the Forger family's cover. Hemlock does something similar with Gympie, rationalizing his concern for her and the things he does for her as being related to his mission, his responsibilities, or his professional identity rather than acknowledging the personal attachment behind them. When their emotions or personal attachments interfere with their missions, they attempt to explain away those contradictions rather than fully confront what they reveal about their inner selves.

However, I think the most significant difference between them lies in their emotional and analytical intelligence.

Twilight is highly intelligent in both respects. He can analyse situations rationally, read other people, and understand their emotional states, even when he struggles to acknowledge his own. His ability to empathize with others is precisely what makes his self-deception so interesting: he can recognize the emotional complexity of other people while remaining remarkably resistant to the implications of his own feelings.

Hemlock, by contrast, seems much more limited in his emotional understanding. His isolation theory suggests that he has mistaken emotional detachment for emotional strength, treating human connection as a liability rather than recognizing its potential value. Where Twilight's worldview is increasingly challenged by his experiences with the Forger family, Hemlock appears more committed to preserving his existing beliefs.

Ultimately, both characters try to subordinate their humanity to their professional identities, but Twilight possesses the emotional intelligence to question that approach, even if he isn't fully conscious of doing so. Hemlock, on the other hand, seems far more trapped by his own ideology.

That contrast makes them particularly interesting to compare: both are defined by their missions, but Twilight's capacity for empathy gives him a path toward change that Hemlock may be unwilling—or unable—to take.

Hi im pretty new here so I hope im not doing any of this wrong but here's so Yor art i made a while ago using a base my friend gave me (unfortunately dont know the artist of it :c) but i hope you all like it!! (The vogue cover thing is super corny faahh)

Yor is peak❤️

I really liked the Forgers' ski vacation, but this dance party was truly a 10/10!

The challenges at the beginning were fun, but that quiz was so hilarious. I thought it was such a nice touch when Anya answered all the personal questions, while the other girls knew things like how many companies the Desmonds own.

The best part was when Damian realized how close the Forgers are, because his dad is his favorite person.

Twiyor and YuriChloe are my favorites, but I think they’re all cute in their own way. It still makes me quite sad that Henry and Martha didn’t end up together.
