What theories do you have about AP?
Personally, I kinda subscribe to the idea that AP takes place on a post-scratch earth.. Due to the like. dominos stuff and other interesting althistory things that we've seen
I'll let terminallyTabescent post the full thing here if she sees this thread but I really, really like the "Null was groomed by Mnemosyne to be the perfect SBURB player" theory.
I am an artist, but more importantly, a friend.
i'm pretty partial to the "null is in an exile station in the future" theory. just for vibes.
first of all 100% seconding untoldultimatum's theory like direct quotes from pg 862 https://mspfa.com/?s=56631&p=862
"NH: Well you see, idiot, my fathers have seen fit to leave me with quite an extensive slate of important duties to which I must attend, and at this particular moment there are indeed tasks which demand my attention more urgently than wiping your ass.
...
NH: I’ve been preparing for this day since I was born."
my main theory (idk if it a theory or just textual and subtle but) wren and jess having a major falling out/friendship break up in the past and that possibly leading to jess being excluded from the friendgroup for a while
spoiler warning for the rest of the post for anyone not caught up, the next bit is all quotes and citations up to the june 26 2025/[S] GH?: Cloudwatch update
first of all in the flashbacks on pgs 953-955 or pgs 978-980 they seem pretty close when they were younger
versus on pg 36 where jess says "She just texts you out of the blue every couple of weeks"
and pg 48 "AG: ... i haven’t even talked to half of these people in months"
then on pg 140 https://mspfa.com/?s=56631&p=140
"AG: i’ll make it easy for you, i’ll straight up leave the friendgroup!!!
AG: head hung low in shame
AG: wouldn’t be the first time, i can take it"
then in the [S] GH?: Cloudwatch flash we see (#:## are timestamps on the youtube mirror)
1:09-1:18 wren looking in horror(?) as jess floats towards the horrorterrors/outer ring
1:34 wren about to block jess
plus jess' repeated hesitance/nervousness on messaging wren
and i think that all i have on that one for now
re: binarybard
agreed and i am pretty sure it's related to Wren coming out as trans; jess seems to have not been sensitive about these things when she was a kid and may have responded awfully at the time.
Sorry to drop such a massive spoiler, but I'm pretty sure Null is the Noid.
got bandersnatches? i,uh, can handle that for you,
what if gene's car crash happened because he forgot he was in britain and started driving on the wrong side of the road
Other than an Exile staton, Null might be in a Skaianet laboratory on Earth, or somehow already in the game in a lab in the Furthest Ring. Unless she's actually from one of those places in another session altogether. Possibly a survivor of a failed session trying to crash this one, which might explain how she knows so much. I'm still not 100% sure she's even human, though Jessprite would probably have mentioned Null being an alien.

a little crazy to me that i've never considered future null until reading this thread LOL
i really, really want null to have a cueball for a head. or that one of her dads is a doc scratch.
also adam is going to be a host for lord english.
