But wait. Is it Chloe remembering that leads Clair to construct a new layer? Or is it the ACT of remembering—and subsequently shutting out—that creates a new layer?
Aside from the first page, where we don’t have context, every time Chloe started to remember it was after Clair overrode her will: Once after Clair removed the crab race track Chloe built, once after Clair slept next to Chloe and now when Clair took away the book against Chloe’s will.
Clair has remembered once, when Chloe had a sleepover with Pepper instead of her.
What if Chloe is afraid of being controlled and Clair is afraid of being abandoned, maybe as different responses to the same event, and it’s making them push in opposite directions?
holy shit
oh my god oh my god its HAPPENING

Finally, we know what the traumatic incident was: Cutting their bangs.
such a Chloe thing to say
:chloe-sit:
It’s Batty
Working. Even on your birthday. Tut tut
Been a while since we saw the bangs and glasses
I hope Chloe ends up okay after seeing whatever awaits us

Ooo thats a solid idea; each layer getting erased as an effect of the trauma being locked away further
OOOH! I like the way you phrased that!
And once she finally remembers, every layer will collapse down into one all at once. An apocalyptic end to this “heaven.”
Wait shit, “Heaven falling down” was sitting right there.

Giving us vast implications on your birthday is such a power move Batty well done:hearts:
Happy birthday once again batty batshaped (still ur birthday in my time zone) I’m afraid of the horrors :achilles-serious:
I saw his expression wrong without my glasses pretend he is frightened :achilles-licking:
Oshi- the dread is real
Perhaps in the last page, Clair was trying to close Chloe’s eye again in her sleep, but she batter her away cause she was mad?
BIRTH
Happy b-day! :batty-long:
I have a theory:

Ooo. Good analysis.
Noooooooooo😭
Oh gosh I’m scared
Happy late birthday!
Possession leads to subjection, and this subject is ~*trauma*~!
oh god, its been so long since weve seen this room
The warping of vision at the edge of the glasses… I will always be impressed by your illustration skills, Batty
