#dimitri vapnoople

Hey, how many of y’all are caught up with Girl Genius?  Because now having seen him, I think X is just Y having been exposed to extradimensional energy and spent years in another dimension only to atemporally arrive here recently, but I don’t have anyone to share the theory with.  (X and Y under cut for spoils, + images for further explanation)

X = Kjarl Thotep, Y = Dimitri Vapnoople

I mean, it feels almost too obvious so I’m not sure.  Their builds are even extremely similar, Kjarl’s is just an inflated version.

(And I think he IS legitimately good now, not pretending for subversion purposes, but I’d understand if not.  Him having been the one to heal his own mind after not recognizing himself, so he’d hop in the portal and become himself, is just delicious Homestucky time shenanigans.)

I don’t expect to keep having Girl Genius theories or start classpecting it so don’t bug me to make more Xo

EDIT: Added a Kjarl Thotep/Mad page to the wiki for this I guess. I can’t believe he didn’t have one before.
