megneato:

Mollymauk digging himself out of the dirt 2 years ago, without a name or memories. And then having to quickly learn how to be a person again, craft an identity for himself from scratch, and eventually ending up being happy with and liking who he’s become; informs so much about him.

The way he presents himself to the world, the colourful clothes, decorated horns, tattoos. That he’s made his appearance and his body 100% his. To make himself into something he likes, that he feels satisfied and comfortable with. 

His dismissal of people’s pasts and life stories, which I previously assumed was arrogance, but instead is a deep understanding and belief that knowing a person’s history isn’t important, it’s the person who’s standing in front of him, and who they are in the present, that matters. 

His ‘I’ll try anything once’ chaotic mode of operation, to fill up his mind again with memories, excitement and experiences, and maybe to take away any of the lingering emptiness he feels.  

I really love Molly, and love the way this episode explains so much about his character
