Catch the latest, cherish the timeless
Season 4 of Tower of God will be interesting as far as lore building goes. Because Baam's been told about his parents multiple times. Data Edahn specifically told him about V. Cha told him about Arlene. And while Data Edahn probably only knew early V, Cha would've known Arlene (or heard of her) during the Great War. Baam has an idea as to who his parents are. What kind of people they were. So, I'm wondering how much of his interactions with V is going to contradict/reinforce the image Baam has of them in his head.
I know it probably won't be the case, but I would love it if, in Tower of God, Arlene is revealed to be a very caring and doting mom to Baam. Like, she can be bat shit crazy and will destroy you for looking at her wrong, but when it comes to Baam, I would love it if she was a caring parent with a legitimate reason for not being around (improsioned or something like that). One, because he deserves a good parent. And two, it would be an interesting character dynamic given that every other parent in the story is competing for the worst parent of the year award.
Instead of working on what I’m supposed to, I wrote a short one off theory/”What if?” scenario for Tower of God of Arlene being Phantaminum’s real identity. If your interested, give it a read and tell me what you think.
