[Spoilers for the Introduction of Book Two!]

[Alternate Text: A GIF of the iconic evil or dark side kermit meme. Regular Kermit seems to be lost in a foggy area, but he is soon confronted by another version of himself in a black hood.]

Iโ€™ve been waiting to use this meme, so now is the perfect time after the first alpha content drop!

Itโ€™s almost a little too perfect, isnโ€™t it? But donโ€™t worry, this didnโ€™t inspire what Iโ€™m sure many of you will feel to be a major twist within the first few pages of Book Two. Typically, this meme is used with Me: โ€œ...โ€ and then Other Me: โ€œ...โ€ to represent a devil on your shoulder type of dynamic. Like, Me: โ€œI should probably go to bed now.โ€ Other Me: โ€œNo, write one more section.โ€

There are likely some opinions on whom you meet at the start of the next book. Could they be a devil on your shoulder type, a different kind of devil, or perhaps a guardian angel? I have a feeling that the levels of trust are going to vary widely across readers as we learn more details.

(At least they have a cool robe/hood! ๐Ÿ˜‰ Also, as a quick clarifying point: I will refer to them as โ€˜Doppelโ€™ when/if I mention them in writings/reactions on here since I know their name varies. )

I TRUST THEM! โ€ฆI'm gonna regret it, aren't I? (please say no)

Hmm, how about a 'maybe'? ๐Ÿ˜ I do think it's interesting that you trust them! You likely triggered some less tense scenes because of that effort to be more trusting of them. I'm excited for you to see Doppel again. ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ’š

I do not trust them ๐Ÿคบ Sparrow doesn't even trust nor like himself what makes you think he'll trust some 'doppelganger'? ๐Ÿ‘€

Oof, I feel like Sparrow's reaction would fit J's if they were confronted with this. >.> Perhaps, Doppel will earn Sparrow's trust? (Or the two of them will have a contentious dynamic?) Who knows. ๐Ÿ˜‹

I love all the hints you give us! I love a good Detective thriller. Please don't make this too horrific, I couldn't stand it if any of them died ๐Ÿ˜ญ

It makes me so happy that you're emotionally attached and deeply invested in the characters. The 'found family' trope is important to TFS. ๐Ÿฅฐ I wouldn't fret too much; however, there can be consequences and butterfly effects to certain choices. ๐Ÿ‘€ You can use my hints to influence your MC's decisions, possibly to help inform them. :D
