Do You Guys Think Kevin Kaufmann Could Have Foreseen The Impact He'd Have? Did He Know When He Became

What the Hell is going on? Today started so cheerful with Peacefields being released online and now the fandom is imploding?! I know that every fandom goes through this type of phase but Goddamn!

Ghesties? What does this mean? It scares me.

Oh Satan, that is so sweet!🥹

STOP I JUST REALISED COPIA KISSED CUMULUS ON HER HELMET AT THEIR FINAL SHOW IN THE RE-IMPERATOUR BECAUSE HE KNEW SHE WOULDN'T BE COMING BACK.

SECONDO'S SOFT, FEMININE, ROMANTIC SOUL....

Placeholder until I finish. But what if epic 80s movie?

Who knows when I'll pick this up again, cos the technique I thought would be cool, is actually a pain in the dickens, it's bothered me every stop of the way and now I'm gonna have to fix it

I WAS RIGHT! PRIMO IS NIHIL'S BROTHER! YES!!!!

THOUGHTS FROM GHOST’S LONDON SHOW IN NO ORDER AAAA:

The way when they were played Satanised he was clutching his head and swaying when the chanting happened!

HE DID SHY MUMMY THRUSTS THEN A BIG ONE.

Talked about “my uncle” (Primo) playing Camden 15 years ago and when I tell you I sobbed!

Had a very in and out Copia/Terzo accent that was so hot.

Lots of GROWLS. Man was growling and speaking rumbly!

he also said “do you want an Easter egg up the Keister. A Keister egg” ASDFGGH.

When we were asking for more songs he told us very snappy but playfully to “shut up” and SHUSHED us.

He was shy, bit snappy and quieter. He yapped a little but not much. He seems a little reserved and when he was moving around the stage he was less bouncy than Copia but still lively!

IF ANYONE WANTS TO ADD PLEASE FEEL FREE!

I just realized something! Since fumata means smoke and it is reported that there is a smoke maker on the billboard. The livestream is meant to show the moment the smoke appears, and after that, maybe we will finally see Papa V or a single will released!

I know we're all hurting about the prices but here's what I found. I don't think Tobias would just up the cost without a very good reason and it turns out that reason is the shitty application fee. And that little note at the end about there being no refund if an application is rejected? He's just as much a victim of capitalism as the rest of us. I understand the insane VIP price point with guaranteed front and center barricade now.

At this point, I think we can just go with our own interpretations of the story because of how loose it is. In the end, it's the music that truly matters. I would love a more coherent story, of course, but I'm not going to lose sleep over this anymore. I'm satisfied with just enjoying the music and concerts now. Although, it is still sad that I will never see Terzo having any influence. At least we got quite a few Meliora songs on the tour set list. Maybe Papa V Perpetua looked up to Terzo and wants to subtly carry on his legacy?

I think a retcon with four brothers is a bad plot decision, and here's why.

1. In the Meliora era, Nihil was introduced as the father of the other Papas, and that's important for many reasons. Tobias himself repeatedly emphasized that Terzo and Secondo had a common father but different mothers, and presented this as an essential characteristic. Nihil he referred to as "the bigger fish in the sea." Terzo once even promised that sooner or later we would see his father - and so it turned out. 

2. The subject of Meliora is a world without God. Tobias described it as a pre-apocalyptic world. It ends with the end of civilization when God returns and punishes humanity for its complacency. The last song of the era, "Bible," tells how the people of Babylon forgot about God and he unleashed the world in his wrath. The next album, Prequelle, is a logical extension of this - it's about the return of God, who brings punishment (plague) upon mankind. Considering this, metaphorically Nihil is the very God-father who comes to "close the party".

3. By coming on stage, Nihil is saying that a new Middle Ages is coming. His return symbolizes the rolling back of political systems to more archaic ideas and ways of government (I guess I don't need to tell what from real life that looks like). Modernization is replaced by conservatism. Democracy is replaced by more rigid and authoritarian forms of rule. The older generation here symbolizes conservative ideas, while the younger generation symbolizes aspirations for the future.

4. Terzo's image is largely based on the image of Lucifer, there are many references to that. Lucifer was thrown out of heaven by God, his father. It makes sense that Terzo is also cast down by his father, Nihil.

The Meliora - Prequel system worked fine until they needed to change key elements for some reason. I hope TF scraps this idea, because obviously it offers a bad alternative to a good story.

Guys, I'm actually getting scared. They have all worked so hard for this tour. What if Tobias is forced to delay or even cancel concerts for safety reasons? These lunatic "fans" are out of control. We know they are not just on Twitter anymore. I feel powerless to stop this.

I'm sorry. I've been looking forward to this tour for so long like you all have. Again, I'm sorry for doom-posting. I just don't know what to do.
