DOG/WOLF JOHN ANALYSIS!!!!

I’ve been going crazy for this idea. I knew I had to wait until part 41 “The Windmill” came out before I could post this (I am a patron). But now I can!!

First off John is narratively a wolf, but from my knowledge he is behavior wise more doglike. I am not an animal or dog or wolf behaviorist, but that would be sick.

Analysis, and some screenshots of the transcript below :3

So for narratively a wolf: he's one of the first wolves. He was enthralled by the campfire, he wandered closer, he found a human and a human found him. And through necessity he was softened, and tamed. He is no longer the viscous, cruel, arrogant wild thing he was, but a loyal, devoted, sometimes kind, curious thing. He isn't a sweet obedient pup and he won’t, he's in the process of being tamed. He's becoming a domestic wolf.

Now dog behavior: He acts alot like a dog that hasn’t been thoroughly trained yet. Acting out when pushed into a corner, being desperate for attention. He behaves exactly like a dog that doesn’t understand the world. He’s pampered aggressive lap dog, never learned no to bite. Now Arthur is showing him the consequences, he’s teaching him how to behave.

My friend made a good point on fear aggression (I would at then but they don't have Tumblr). Some dogs react really badly when scared, biting and barking. This seems the exact reason he used Faroe against Arthur when he brought Emily up. He wa scared of the consequences so he bit back, and made it worse. He fell back on his violent ways because he doesn’t know anything different.

He’d do anything for his keeper (calling Arthur his owner is weird) make a deal with the devil to come back to him. He’d draw him to safety by his teeth, even if that meant dragging Arthur by the neck. He could never see him loose himself, or die. He’d even give up the luxurious life he used to live to be by his side, and keep him safe.

He latches to ideas and will not let go until satisfied, like a particularly stubborn dog. Even if hi assumptions are childish, especially if they’re childish. He sees a movie advertisement like a dog sees a squirrel. At the same time he’s quick to jump to killing, he sees a threat and bites first ask questions later, ho many times has he seen a threat and immediately demands Arthur kill it?

Like alot of dogs I know he only wants Arthur, he’s slow to trust, and feels jealous easily. Like a dog using their muzzle to get you to pet them, especially after petting another dog. (this is targeted) He doesn’t like Lily, or the bright bug like creature in the caves, he only appreciates Lily after he found kinship. He only trusted Noel after he was able to be known.

In some ways in season 4, John is akin to a dog with owners who don’t understand dog behavior. He has no voice no matter how loud he barks, only getting a reaction when he gets really loud or physical. Arthur doesn’t understand his needs, because they don’t have the means to communicate (a place where they won’t look insane talking to each other)

Just like a child being new to the world, he’s a dog abandoned on the streets after living in pent houses. He’s gonna be clueless and misguided.

Now some specific moments that helped me form this theory/metaphor/symbolization: there's more, but I either can't remember them or they're overarching stuff that can't be simplified with one screenshot

i haven't seen anyone say it yet so i will

i need you guys to understand. i need you to remember. im losing my fucking mind.

Oh yeah I did notice that. I am a metalhead so that's kinda the direct opposite. (Folk, metal, psychedelic, and punk are my main genres) Also yeah I LOVE HOZIER & CRANE WIVES, I really have to listen to Lady Lamb cuz of u

You're not the only person with an unhealthy obsession on making a Malevolent playlist (well for me it's 10, +3 unserious ones). I have a spreadsheet of all the songs in all of my Malevolent playlists, and links to those playlists, and what will become (eventually) docs for song annotation.

I thought you'd be interested in it since, you also have a banger Malevolent playlist (and will definitely find some time to add some of your songs to mine)

And I would just like to say, I love your art. It's absolutely beautiful, ANJABSKDNDJ. The way you draw my favorite guys is awe inspiring and stunning. The shapes, and the colors, and the lineart. Ugh, I always love it when I get a notif of you posting art

Do we have any for Parker x Arthur? If not we need to fix that

I have a huge bone to pick with the Malevolent fandom. How did we manage to come up with Arkayne and Angeleyes/BLIND FAITH, THE BEST NAME TO EVER SHIP but still no reasonable alternative to Jarthur???
