  1. I have such a soft spot for Linus because of one incredibly specific situation in my childhood, where my neighbors decided to allow a homeless veteran to camp out in front of their apartment.
    It became sort of a ritual for my brother and I to bring leftover food from the cafeteria to him after school. And in return, he’d tell us stories about the army or his living arrangement as an unhoused person.
    Eventually the landlord caught on and he was asked to leave, and I lost touch with him after that. I doubt he’s alive now, but I never forgot him.

  2. I never thought if this theory before, it does make sense to me, Linus is very knowledgeable about many things and the way he speaks and acts does show a lot of humility, patience and a sense of respect and integration with nature, instead of taking from it, as if he's learned a lesson during his own journeys throughout the world. I'll always love Linus, he's always the first resident I become friends with and I'm not even gonna elaborate on his dilf effect (can't help myself hehehehe). Loved the video!

  3. This is awesome, I dig it.
    What if…..we all know Linus hangs out in the mines to revive us (steal our open cans of soup we keep in our pockets). He hangs out in dangerous places, could be he has more ties to the adventurers guild and protection of the valley which might also mean pirate hunter if needed. One day he had enough fighting, found some leaves and made himself some camo lulu lemon leggings and dropped off the grid.

  4. huhhhh, I wouldn't have expected Linus to dislike the Pirate egg since he does 'speak' in the same squawks during the Leo cutscene where he offers to help mentor him should he move to Pellican Town. It does seem like there might be a pattern to his dislikes there.
