I didn’t realize that Yancy and Mark were two different characters at first, so I thought getting punched through a wall made Mark adjust to prison life really quickly
I keep having dreams that Yancy's not in AHWM 2 I swear to god, if my dreams are right, I'm gonna be mad (My dreams, for some reason, also keep saying that the sequel won't be as good as the first. But there's *no* way that's true)
Something I noticed: Yancy has been watching you the SECOND you got into the prison. He knew which cell you were at, which either means he overheard, or you're in his cell! Cool, right? So I'm guessing from how the cell looked that you're assigned to be in a cell with him! As you can see from the look of the cell, there's another pair of black and white striped pants hanging up, white shirts, white tank tops(hoooo boy), and a pair of black dancer's shoes(i think) by the beds. ------------------- And something funny I noticed. When Yancy shouted "DUCK!!", there was a duck noise. *comedy* Edit: in fact, they were not dancer's shoes. They were slippers 😂
So today I rewatched “Who Killed Markiplier” and ya know at the end Spoiler warning I guess When you get shot and it shows “you” are now Darkiplier. I started thinking “One day we’re gonna get another one of these Mark story videos and one of the marks will talk about an old gunshot wound or will take off their shirt to reveal a scar...So after that I went to watch the Explaining livestream for WKM...and in that during the first part explanation Mark says the viewer character’s name is Y/N or “Yancy Nancy” which made me immediately think of th character in AHWM I definitely cant be the first to have noticed this but the blood spot on Yancy’s shirt caught me off guard and got my brain goin.
Okay but which stream was the "Yancy Nancy" thing in since that's honestly hilarious- Also this is an awesome theory! I've wondered what could've caused that wound on Yancy's chest. I was thinking possibly broken glass, since obviously a punch can't make that kind of wound. A gun shot also makes sense, sorta. (Now that I think about it, it could be blood dripped from his cracked lip. If you look closely, you can see a little black mark on his lip)
I love how Mark keeps unintentionally creating really good characters to connect with without even understanding how. 😂 Mark has repeatedly said Yancy's popularity has confused him, but for me, Yancy is another Ego-in-arms that actually clicks with my experiences in psychiatric treatment. Mark has been, unintentionally, probably not only my biggest support but also my biggest backbone for figuring out my cPTSD and other issues from childhood (I'm 21 now as of the 20th) so Yancy has been helpful to assign exactly how I started to sink when I was in abusive treatment. Yancy, in my opinion, has the same vein of abilities as Wilford/Colonel does, but instead of Wilford's method of refuting trauma, which is to just cover it up or skip over it (causing him to not exist in any one place or time with stability; he chooses not to follow the script because he doesn't want to accept it, therefore he can just fuckin' teleport around when it shouldn't be possible, because he can't even remember WHERE he was in the room at any given time,) he instead decided that staying in a single grade of hell was better than dealing with reality, which is a goddamn rollercoaster, and therefore trapped himself in that level despite knowing how to get out (all of the bullshit you have to bob and weave through I think is shit Yancy has put up to deter HIMSELF from leaving this "happily-upset place" so-to-speak, making it needlessly complicated to discourage himself from trying. But since you wanted to get out, he brought you to the gate, but went no further himself.) This is why he somehow gains the full maps of whatever choose-your-own he happens to appear in as tattoos, but never chooses to follow them, at least in my mind; unlike Will who disregards the entire plot and therefore kinda bounces around in it nonsensically, Yancy knows EVERY possible choice, but has decided to not move forward from this single cell, this single choice, because he'd rather stay in one static position than deal with change. When I was hospitalized from Halloween to mid-March in Springbrook Behavioral, back when I was 15, I was being horrifically abused by staff as well as other patients. But eventually there became moments of "glossiness" or a daze, I remember, where despite how much I fucking hated my situation, I DID feel better being constantly beat up, sticked in, sat on, and screamed at, in that rotting mouldy building than I did at home with my shitty parents. And I did have moments of "I have a trash pedigree; but in here I'm bourgeoisie," both in Springbrook and in my first hospitalization because I would always quickly become a leader, just like Yancy, and I'd end up helping around more than the actual damn staff (the first hospitalization I was actually de-escalating most of my pediatric patients from the staff picking on them, including preventing a 10 year old from needing to be strapped down and sedated for "their own safety" by simply explaining to him calmly that there was a misunderstanding while we were playing Candy Land and that he did pull the winning card before walking him back to finish the game [and I was telling the truth; the staff got confused on the card and when he tried to debate them on it, they deemed him to be "distressed and a danger to himself",] and in Springbrook, just one of the things I was known for was striking a deal with one of the patients to get her recipe for "Jailhouse Oatmeal," so we could actually eat something with fat and carbs instead of just protein all the time due to the starvation diet we were all on.) Because I felt useful in a shitty situation, felt comradary in the chaos, and the pain was predictable rather than terrifying and striking from seemingly nowhere at home, I started convincing myself I'd rather stay there than ever leave. And Yancy is the same way. Break out? Of this place? When everything outside is so pointless and cruel? Nah... I'll stay here... where I can take a shower in peace... I have my own room... I have friends... ...Hence why I visit every third Sunday. The only way someone will come out of that, and I know personally, is if they have someone and somewhere to come out to. And maybe Yancy is fictional, but it's the thought that matters, right?
' maybe i was wrong about youse .. maybe i was wrong about alot things .. '😭😭 4:54 he looks so sad :c 8:30 I HATED THIS ENDING I WANTED TO STAY W/ YANCY😭😭
I think he might be a combination of all marks for example he has mark and dark on his knuckles and the tattoo on his arm looks like the map of all endings
