Abraxasverse Headcanons - Ghidorah
Some headcanons of mine about Ghidorah’s possible influence in the Abraxasverse. ;)
After the main fic, I imagine that:
1. Whenever Ghidorah Comes Back, in the flesh for real instead of acting through the Zmeyevich or the Many remnants, it’s a guarantee that two things always happen: (a) At least one major city is wiped off the map for good, and (b) at least one major character is Killed Off for Real. In KotM, that was Boston and Washington D.C. / Stenz, Serizawa (sort of) and Emma; and in ‘Abraxas,’ that was Berezniki / Jonah and Thor.
2. Ghidorah returns in the flesh and at full power one more time before Godzilla’s swan song against Destoroyah/Baragon. Maybe they’re literally the penultimate Titan crisis before the Destoroyah or Baragon crisis where Godzilla has his swan song.
3. Following up on the above two, maybe when Ghidorah Comes Back next after Berezniki and before Godzilla’s swan song; the next major city that they annihilate per 1) is London and a good chunk of southern England, which they target because they know from the Many’s hive mind that it’s where Vivienne was born and grew up.
---
Oooh! Yes, these make sense... I approve that a Return of Ghidorah scenario would result in Vivienne’s childhood home being destroyed. Thanks to the Many, Ghidorah can list every single location Vivienne would’ve frequented, from the streets she walked to school to the museum she explored as a girl. YOU DON’T BELONG THERE ANYMORE. YOU DON’T GET TO REMEMBER IT. YOU DON’T GET TO BE ANGRY ABOUT IT. THE ONLY PLACE OF YOUR BIRTH WORTH REMEMBERING IS ME.
you have become one but you can never go back to being you

I’m curious to know why Swap!Sasha’s being healed after being stabbed, seeing as the Core wanted Canon!Marcy for her super-intelligence. Are Andrias and the Core planning to use Sasha as bait to lure Marcy back to Newtopia?
In this AU Andrias targets Sasha due to her "soul of a conqueror," leadership capabilities, and willingness to aide in his takeover of dimensions (she knows of his plan to invade other dimensions, but where she draws the line is when he targets Earth). That Marcy would be a better host doesn't cross his mind because of how little time he spends with her.

Brief dialogue challenge. Abraxas meets Stenz from a timeline where Stenz survived KotM. :)
Monster X:
Stenz:
Monster X:
Stenz: ...ah... D-Dr. Graham?
Monster X:
Stenz: That, uh, is you in there, yes?
Monster X, San: Sister is restraining herself. You will speak to me.
Stenz: Why?
San: Because every thought she's had of you since her rebirth has been particularly angry. And violent.
Stenz, sighing: ...understandable. Do you have angry and violent thoughts about me?
San: That depends on what you have to say. I don't know you, I don't care for you, sister doesn't like you, and I'm inclined to like you even less.
Stenz: Again, understandable. I haven't exactly been supportive of Monarch and their stance on coexisting with these mons... Titans. But you have to understand the perspective of someone who hasn't spent decades studying these creatures, who's priority is defending human lives.
San: You supported the Oxygen Destroyer.
Stenz: There have been multiple instances in human history where one supports a certain course of action because "it seemed like a good idea at the time". Titans are impervious to conventional weaponry, let alone bombs. Governments and militaries felt desperate, and in our desperation nearly sealed extinction for our species. I understand that now. I nearly paid for my hubris with my life.
San: Good.
Stenz:
San: Well, not "good" as in you almost died. Good that you learned your lesson by now.
Stenz: I hope so. I... also hope we never meet again. Not for personal reasons - it's... well. You terrify me.
San, smiling: Good.
Stenz:
San, still smiling:
Stenz: S-So, is Dr. Graham centered enough to speak, or...?
Monster X: *closes eyes, inhales deeply, opens eyes; both green*
Stenz:
Monster X, Vivienne:
Stenz: ...Dr. Graham?
Vivienne: I had to dig through some radio frequencies to get the words right.
Stenz: Which are?
Vivienne: Foxtrot Oscar Charlie Kilo Yankee Oscar Uniform Hotel Alfa Romeo Delta Uniform Papa Tango Hotel Echo Alfa Romeo Sierra Echo.
Stenz: ...that's fair.

Abraxasverse Headcanons - The Titans
Some headcanons of mine about the Titans, specifically their differences. ;)
(1) How Titans understand each-other - As the TV Tropes page on Animal Talk points out on the “Playing With” page and in the first paragraph of the main page, the “all animal species understanding each-other” aspect of the trope isn’t exactly realistic to real animals. Even we humans can only understand our own species’ foreign languages by learning them. But I think there’s a way that the trope can be justified in the case of the different Titan species which all have very distinct-sounding vocalisations: telepathy. We already know Ghidorah, their shed skins and the Many have very potent telepathy that enabled Ghidorah to pick up information like Vivienne’s name in Antarctica, and Mothra seems to show pretty strong telepathy too. Then there’s the KotM end credits’ mention of the links between some ancient humans and Titans being telepathic in nature.
I can imagine that most of the other Earthborn Titans at the very least have some low-level telepathy (how powerful it is varies from species to species, but mostly it’s nowhere near Ghidorah and Mothra’s levels), which is enough to act like a kind of “anti-language barrier crutch” when they’re communicating with Titans outside their own species or Titans they’ve never heard before. It probably isn’t half as effective at bridging human-Titan cross-species communications as it is at bridging Titan-Titan cross-species communications because of some explanation like human neurology being much smaller than Titans’.
(1.5) Fitting with a semi-realistic take on Animal Talk, I can imagine that it’s not just Titans of separate species that need at least low-level telepathy as a language-bridging crutch to communicate. I can imagine it also applies to Titans of the same or very similar species meeting if they’re from different cultures that haven’t interacted in aeons, such as Kong meeting the Scarred Ones.
(2) Why most Titans don’t make technology - Perhaps because, as intelligent as Titans are, sentient species that feel compelled to craft tools and use them to adapt their environment to suit themselves (humans, Kongs, Thor’s species) instead of the other way round, are in the minority. To other Titans, the idea of crafting any tools more sophisticated than, say, hurling a piece of wreckage you find, is just alien. Maybe for some Titans, their mindsets are fundamentally “you adapt yourself to your environment or suffer the consequences,” and “your tools are within (body and biology), not without.”
---
Nice! These make a lot of sense, yeah. It’s also possible that members of any given Titan species can have “accents” - not like human accents obviously, more like the difference between, say, how a European wolf howls vs an American wolf howl. It’s not as noticeable with endlings like Rodan, but might definitely be a factor in species with larger surviving members like the Scarred Ones sounding similar enough to Kong but just different enough to give him pause. Body language is also a key factor, and that alone can vary from species to species as well.

Abraxasverse Headcanons
And a couple more headcanons from me. ;)
(1) Destoroyah and Bagan. You mentioned considering swapping Destoroyah out for Bagan as the final Big Bad for Godzilla’s swan song. Well, you could maybe merge them by having Bagan fuse itself to Destoroyah, kinda like a dark mirror image of how Mothra’s ashes fused to Godzilla in Boston.
(1.5) I was always into the headcanon that Destoroyah is like the Michael Myers of the Abraxasverse - no-one knows why he commits his evil, and he’s not speaking, he just does. Bagan could be the personality of the duo.
(2) The Hollow Earth Core World/Realm Below/Zohar realm is extremely radioactive. What if the Hollow Earth’s Core World/Realm Below is mostly steeped in radiation which nourishes Titan life, but which mundane humans from the surface can’t survive long-term without protection, like the Apex infantry gear or a HEAV’s protective shell? The Iwi or other tribal humans who’ve been living down there would be exceptions, probably because they’ve adapted to the radiation over generations, and/or implicitly because one of the lepidopterran “divine”/“god”-type Titans (Mothra, Battra, etc.) had a hand in making those humans able to survive the radiation similarly to how Mothra’s link to the Chen family influences their Preternatural Twinhood? (I reread Abraxas: The Clash of Silver’s Hollow Earth scenes to see if this has any contradiction there, and Maia is wearing the infantry gear throughout.)
(When it finally occurred to me, it seemed kinda odd that GvK forgot about the Titans’ radiation, like that which the Mutos caused in Dagon’s grave in 1999, when portraying the literal realm of the Titans.)
(2.5) Maybe while military personnel use the gas mask-toting infantry gear that Maia’s plans depicted in the ending of Abraxas, scientific and non-combative personnel sport slightly friendlier-looking versions of the suit, with a full-face transparent visor in place of the gas mask?
---
Ah, interesting thoughts... Bagan and Destoroyah having an evil symbiotic foil to Godzilla and Mothra has potential. And it makes sense that the Hollow Earth is more radioactive compared to the surface world (I figure GvK and GxK “forgot” about the Titan’s radioactivity because iirc even the classic Toho movies could be inconsistent with how safe it was to be in any proximity to Godzilla, whether you end up dying in his path or not). Food for thought.
Oh, and one more thing on the subject of AbraxasVerse... welcome to TV Tropes, friend. :)

Speaking of Ghidorahstan64... what if in Abraxasverse, they're a Zmeyevich?
Oh my god, a Zmeyevich listening intently to each and every one of Bernie's podcasts and smirking every time the topic turns towards Ghidorah, cracking their knuckles and prepping a long-ass copypasta, chuckling to themselves. "Joke's on you, bitch - Ghidorah's my dad. I know more than you."

Abraxasverse Headcanons - Titans and Classification
Some headcanons of mine about the Abraxasverse’s monsters. ;)
1. After Godzilla’s crowning at the end of the Mass Awakening, with both Protectors and Destroyers submitting to him, Monarch needed to instigate a new Titan classification system to distinguish the “ally” Titans from new “hostile” Titans. Apart from Alpha Titans whom are their own category in this new system, the other Titans, Sub-Titans and M.U.T.O.s fall under two distinct categories:
(a) Monsters that directly acknowledge and submit to an Alpha Titan like Godzilla or Kong as their head honcho, and serve them when called. (Shall we call this category Subjects? Lord Titans? Subordinates? Thralls?) Rodan, Scylla, Methuselah, Barb, and the Hawk Monster from the Skull Island series (if it exists in Abraxasverse) would all fall under this category.
(b) Monsters that don’t answer to/won’t answer to any Alpha Titan, and strictly serve their own wants, urges and ambitions even if it brings them into direct conflict with an Alpha. Camazotz, Skullcrawlers, the 2014 Mutos, and creatures which fight to the death trying to kill Kong like the Mire Squid, and Killer Chameleons (if they exist in Abraxasverse) would all fall under this category. (Shall we call this category Rogues? Independents? Autons? Solitaries?)
2. The Titans/Sub-Titans/other M.U.T.O.s overall vary in intelligence and sentience depending upon the species:
Most to all of the “big ones” (Godzilla, Kong, Ghidorah, Rodan, Mothra, Thor, most Mass Awakening Titans) we already know are human levels of intelligent and self-aware.
But a lot of other creatures, mostly lesser M.U.T.O.s and Sub-Titans have much more primitive, basic, simple and animalistic minds - they’re just animalistically semi-sentient or non-sentient. If Abraxas or another Titan tried to communicate with a semi-sentient lesser M.U.T.O., it would only be able to understand or communicate back select things mostly related to their natural instincts and habitation and memories, and its Animal Talk would probably just be broken words and phrases rather than the fully-intelligent Titans’ complete “sentences.”
---
I dig it! “Lord Titans” sounds cool honestly, as it indicates a position of power and responsibilities that being a lord would come with, albeit from a giant monster standpoint. Rodan would love being called a Lord Titan, of course. “Rogues” seems an appropriate category for Titans who are only interested in doing their own thing. Sub-Titans having more halted communications is a good idea too, as it shows they’re still intelligent but in a more clearly animalistic way.
Man, you know the brainrot ain’t letting go anytime soon when you read “communications and airwaves [...] mindscrews” and your knee-jerk reaction is hearing the Three Note Oddity play in your mind... which I can imagine Gigan or even his followers employing for more subtle fuckery. Gigan handles the more overt and visceral radio mimicry when tormenting his prey. The members of the fleet however are fascinated by these old number stations humans used, adopting the old transmissions and adding their own subliminal subtleties to them...

Out of genuine scientific curiosity, what's the "Madison becoming... that" gripe you mentioned having with her role in GvK?
I don't dislike GvK Madison, love that she's more competent and proactive than Mark, but at the same time it can be easy for someone to be exasperated with her; I showed the MonsterVerse movies to some friends a while back and one of them got fairly annoyed with her. And considering my personality, I wouldn't take kindly to Madison jumping into a cyberpunk train going goodness-knows-where without running a plan by me first or taking the word of a guy she just met who plays up the Ancient Aliens Conspiracy Theory act over Josh who is supposed to be her friend, so yeah. Just a bit of Your Mileage May Vary, something to consider when Abraxasifying a character!

Something that I only remembered after my last Ask-comment about Godzilla's voice. To me, the debate about Christopher Judge (Kratos) and Keith David being the voices of Gojirans in Abraxasverse is even funnier for the fact both those actors voiced physical gods called "Titans" before, and the characters were rivals, here. XD
Oh shit, meta humor! You love to see it!

I have a brief dialogue challenge for you~! ;) Abraxas!Madison and/or canon!Madison (one of them or both of them, your choice) meets Graham-Lives!Madison.
Canon!Maddie: Oh hey, a new member of the Multiverse Madison Menagerie!
GL!Maddie: There's a club?
Abraxas!Maddie: Hell yeah, we got movie nights and game nights. So what's the deal with your 'verse?
GL!Maddie: Well, uh... my mom exploded Ghidorah out of the ice and he killed my dad...
Abraxas!Maddie: Oh god, I'm so sorry. You doing okay?
GL!Maddie: Yeah, I'm seeing a therapist about it. Aunt Viv's basically my mom now, so that's pretty cool.
Canon!Maddie: Lucky... Aunt Viv died in my 'verse, so I'm stuck with my dad being... you know. My dad.
GL!Maddie: How was... is Dad, anyway? I didn't really get to spend time with him since the divorce, but we emailed a lot.
Canon!Maddie: That part is the same, but for a couple years he oscillated between "I want Godzilla's head on a platter" and "Maybe Godzilla's okay," with a heaping helping of "Maddie is forbidden from doing everything forever because I am never wrong."
Abraxas!Maddie: My dad had a chat with him about that, though.
Canon!Maddie: Yeah, he still needs aloe vera for all the burns that got him.
GL!Maddie: Wow. Well, uh, I guess there's... hope for him yet? How about your dad?
Abraxas!Maddie: He word vomited all over Aunt Viv and she yelled at him.
GL!Maddie: ...that's it?
Canon!Maddie: Don't leave out the fact that she was 130 feet tall at the time.
GL!Maddie:
GL!Maddie:
GL!Maddie: I... I'm sorry, I must have hallucinated, what was that last part?

Abraxasverse Headcanons - Infrastructural/socio/political consequences
Some thoughts and headcanons of mine, this time about some of the possible lasting impacts of the post-2014 major Titan crises on humanity’s infrastructure and zeitgeist. ;) (Bear in mind, I’m not an expert on politics or the military myself.)
(1) After the Mass Awakening, the U.S.’s military DON’T have the unexplained recovery that they seem to have had in GvK with the naval fleet. Having thrown all their home-based personnel except for last reserves and those out of contact at Washington D.C. and Boston, and having lost the majority of those forces to Ghidorah and Rodan’s counterattacks and to Ghidorah’s Boston wing-lightning respectively, while most of their abroad forces including those at Monarch outposts were likely called to assist the local militaries in trying to push back the other Titans on the other continents… After the Battle at Boston concludes, the U.S. military’s total personnel is probably reduced from over one million to just somewhere in the thousands - and even with a surge in new recruits joining up after the world caught a hard glimpse of the existential threat that Titans like Ghidorah can pose, it takes the U.S. at least a decade to built its military personnel back up to anything NEAR a pre-Mass Awakening level.
(1.5) Ghidorah’s involvement makes the U.S. military’s decimation a lot worse than that which other superpower countries’ militaries suffered - other countries just had to contend with one or two baseline Titans rampaging on each on their respective soils. So in the meantime after the Mass Awakening, the U.S. has officially lost its position as the world’s number one military superpower, and it probably isn’t even the second or third biggest military power comparatively speaking at this time. The good news is that almost every country is much too focused on global cooperation against future Titan threats to even try starting fights with each-other anymore.
(2) Sooner or later, once people at large catch on that the worst of the Titan clashes and incidents usually occur in cities, I can imagine LOTS of people will start emptying out of cities and moving into the countryside (areas of it that aren’t claimed by territorial Titans that is) and into more rural population centres. The cities are left HALF-abandoned but are still standing, ripe for being toppled by Titan battles. I don’t know whether this exodus will last, or if it’ll reverse due to major Titan clashes still finding their ways to people in the countryside.
(3) After the Mass Awakening, Monarch have lost at least half their global personnel. Whilst there are a lot of people willing to sign up with them after the Mass Awakening, Monarch are in dire need of new personnel. To the point where, I can imagine, some of Monarch’s higher-ups who didn’t learn anything from Emma Russell take a “quantity over quality” approach to new recruitment and evaluation requirements. Which could enable an infiltration of Monarch by a nefarious lot down the line, or it could enable a Renegade Splinter Faction forming and stealing some of their resources with them when they split.
(4) Birth rates after the Mass Awakening haven’t fallen much at all globally speaking, but it’s widely believed that that ISN’T a sign that people at large are feeling hopeful about bringing children into a post-Mass Awakening world of Titans, where hundreds of thousands seem to die every several years in a crisis-level Titan conflict that wipes a city off the map. Rather, there are rumours that the Titans’ radiation affecting humans is massively bolstering human fertility much like it affects other life in the environment and that’s making it a lot easier to conceive, so the whole thing balances out.
---
All interesting thoughts! I imagine the influx of new Monarch recruits would even result in Titanics (Titan cultists for anyone in need of a reminder) joining their ranks; this could result in anything from friendly hangouts that may or may not end up in religious pamphlets being found all over the place (”The Church of Old Gods wants YOU!”) to groups secretly meeting up for practices after-hours a la DOOM 2016 but with less Hell Bullshittery, to some loonies trying to replicate Dr. Graham’s ascension to Abraxas under the delusion that mankind are children of the old gods and divinity is their evolutionary birthright. Never a dull moment at Monarch.

Got a couple new 'Abraxas' questions, on a shared topic. ;)
(1) Considering how intelligent and sentient the Titans are in Abraxasverse, what do you imagine Hokmuto and Femuto were thinking when they went on their natural order-threatening rampage to hook up and reproduce just after hatching into their adult forms? Did they know what they were doing? Were they okay with it or were they slave to their instincts? Did they care either way? Did they understand the damage that their species breeding would do?
(2) How do Godzilla and Barb feel about each-other?
Ohohoho! Well, the first answer's a big one...
Considering both halves of the couple had only recently hatched, it's unlikely they really understood the state of the world or had anyone to teach them what they should or shouldn't do. I'm tempted to say that Hokmuto and Femuto were the equivalent of teenagers who were kicked out of their houses through circumstances outside their control and forced to deal with the world alone, with no advice or help from anyone. A rather daunting idea.
Teenagers can be impulsive and often imagine themselves invincible if only because the world has yet to humble them; Hokmuto might very well be riding on the high of surviving the Honolulu encounter with Godzilla, who he might only instinctively recognize as a threat and/or potential food, but otherwise doesn't know him from Adam (heh). Teenagers also get horny, and I think it's a common occurrence for one to do daring if incredibly stupid things on the off-chance that someone they find attractive may notice (unless of course sexuality circumstances dictate otherwise).
They weren't stupid, though - if they'd met when the world was more densely populated with Titans and they were naturally taught the ways of the world, Hokmuto and Femuto would've made pretty good parents. They had chemistry, they knew how to work together, they put up an excellent fight against Godzilla, and if not for a certain lucky-as-hell lieutenant blowing their nest sky-high, might've won the day and doomed us all. Unfortunately, they wouldn't realize the gravity of their actions until it was too late. How would they? No one else of their kind was around to teach them. They only had each other. Things might've been different if they had experienced adults like the MUTO Prime or even Barb around, but they didn't. Either way, they weren't stupid; they just didn't know any better.
Speaking of Barb! Tensions between her and Godzilla were certainly high, especially early on. But neither of them were keen on starting a fight that could result in serious injury or worse; it's simply easier to leave each other alone and go about their day. They at least have an accord: Don't start shit and you won't get hit. Plus, Barb is much older and wiser than Hokmuto or Femuto, fully aware of what could happen if she were to mate and start a clutch of eggs. The world in its current state can't handle such an infestation (loathe as she is to refer to hypothetical offspring as such).
Sadly, this knowledge also brings loneliness with it. Suddenly Godzilla has offspring of his own in Ladon and Shin, and Barb remains alone. There could be a surge of resentment. Why does he get to be a father again? Why can't she be a mother? Oh, but she knows full well why. Barb envies Godzilla having a family, but she doesn't take out her emotions on others because that wouldn't help her species-wide reputation as a parasite. Naturally, she develops a melancholic disposition. At times her depression is palpable enough for humans to pick up on it.
It takes time for Godzilla and Barb to be near each other without the instinctive, ancient grudge between their species getting in the way of things. They still don't really like each other, and some days "tolerate" can be a tall order, but the accord still stands. She'll still run to his aid if he calls for it. Privately, Godzilla might actually feel bad for Barb. It wasn't that long ago when he was the last of his kind just like her, after all.

A Monsterverse "Actor Allusion" AU ;)
Vivienne Graham originally got recruited into Monarch because of her interactions with a humanoid fish-man at a government facility. She gets a lot of ribbing from her colleagues over it, especially on account of her passion for a certain Titan who’s also aquatic and reptilian-looking, and the internet got in on the teasing to an even worse extent after Monarch went public.
Admiral William Stenz was secretly born 120+ years ago, he studied faeries, made a field guide about all their most well-kept secrets, and got frozen in time in the faerie realm for 80+ years to stop him upsetting the faerie world’s balance. He found his way back to our world in a way that doesn’t make him age to dust, but at a price. He’s as hesitant as he is to trust in Protector Titans like Serizawa says they should because it reminds him of how he was too idealistic and trusting of malevolent faeries like Mulgarath when he made his faerie guide, and it almost enabled dark faeries to learn how to take over the world - he fears Serizawa is making the same mistakes that he did.
Madison Russell, despite often being told she looks like both Emma and Mark, isn’t their biological child - she’s a telekinetic child test subject who escaped from a government lab, and they adopted her after she came to their attention.
Another part of why Emma went insane is suspected to be because she used to be a paranormal investigator before she was traumatised by a case involving a demonically-possessed doll.
Packard has his own extra reasons for losing his marbles in addition to Vietnam. He used to be a hitman who could talk for hours about often-pulpy rubbish, until he had a near-death experience which he took as divine intervention, and after that, he had another close brush with death when a hyperintelligent mutated shark almost gobbled him.
---
Nice! And let us not forget...
Ishirō Serizawa used to be a detective in a certain city filled with monsters before he joined Monarch... of course, these particular monsters are much smaller and easier to get along with; pocket-sized monsters, one might say. Thus he naturally has a pro-monster bias that puts him at odds with Stenz, but he’s not as naive as the Admiral thinks. After all, some of the monsters Serizawa’s dealt with come in such varieties as Dark, Ghost, or Fairy...
Ford Brody grew up with comics and, in order to deal with the issues inherent of a not-all-that-present father going full conspiracy theorist (and also may or may not be a meth kingpin), took to the streets as a costumed vigilante in his high school days. He ends up becoming an EOD with multiple steel implants and reduced nerve sensitivity, both of which come in handy when he gets involved in the whole MUTO mess.

Abraxasverse Headcanon(s) - The Skull Island Kraken
Some thoughts I had about how the Kraken from ‘Skull Island’ could be adapted into the Abraxasverse, not least when musing on its chimeric fish-cephalopod-lobster-bird design and origin, and its psychotic personality. ;)
What if the reason for the above two things is because the Abraxasverse version of the Kraken’s design doesn’t turn up in the world for the first time until the 2020s. (Of course, this would have to mean that if the events of the 'Skull Island’ series DO happen in Abraxasverse, they’ll probably have to have another Titan or at least Titan design in the Kraken’s role, like you said about wishing the Kraken’s design in the show had been more like a 'Gamera’ sea monster. ;))
Why the dating change? Well…
What if the Abraxasverse adaptation of the Skull Island Kraken is the result of a Many remnant assimilating various animals and/or Hollow Earth Titans/subtitans - mostly sea creatures like octopi, fish, squids and crustaceans, and also a bird - into itself, and then with time and some other influence, the Many instance’s DNA and biology stabilised into a permanent, fully-realised and fully-functioning organism?
Obviously, if the Abraxasverse Kraken still has its canon personality, then it very much succeeded in taking after Dear Old Triple-Dad Ghidorah.
Maybe the Ghidorah-like personality in the Kraken could also be because the Many instance which ultimately became the Kraken was part of the Many that were involved in transporting MaNi’s unattended-to head away to safety after Abraxas sucked MaNi dry and MaNi’s head ran out of power, and that Many instance had enough Many-ish physical contact with MaNi’s head before separating to permanently soak up some of the personality that had been inside the head?
---
This would certainly cleanly explain the Kraken’s bonkers design and overall being Like That, and massively up the stakes regarding Mike’s poisoning and uncertain fate in the series, not to mention a huge bump in the danger everyone on Skull Island is in!
(Also you know damn well that an AbraxasVerse take on Skull Island’s events would absolutely ensure Dog gets out of that mess safe and with his best friend Annie because I love Dog and I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t give him a happy ending! He’s a good boy!!)
