HI! This is my little lego side blog that I run. I do character analysis' here, along with talking about a bunch of Aus. I will occasionally do fanart, but we'll see if I start doing it more regularlySuffer with me:D
Actually, during the scenes at the beginning of the first and second movies, you can often see Emmet doing his best to contribute in some way to other people's lives.
He's kind of trying to assert himself in a way that makes it hard to forget him (Well in the first movie they still do), and he's trying to build relationships with people because he's so afraid of being alone.
I mean come on, he was so lonely to the point he substituted a plant as a best friend. That's not healthy.
So, y'know... watching these people easily forget him wasn't ever going to end well, regardless if it was him or others getting hurt.
*Deep breaths in fictional character psychoanalysis* Wow isn't it wild that in getting stuck in Un-Dar the Dri-Ar and being forgotten from his point of view validates Emmet's fears of being forgettable and unimportant and how when he learned to move again out of spite he went on to modify his previously generic appearance and name and become a raptor trainer-spaceman-action hero-etcetera-etcetera so that he would never be boring or uninteresting and he'd never be forgotten again?
