Crack Headcanon: A lot of Alastors behavior (his want for deal-making, his behavior towards men and women, his protection regarding the Hotel) can be explained with Alastor being a red deer stag. Meaning that in a purely asexual way, his instincts tell him that he has a 'harem' that needs expanding, the Hotel is his territory and that's also why he gets rather angry when faced with another men challenging his authority/position.

Herd of Deer under an Oak Tree, Thomas Rowlandson, 1775-1827

[homosherb]

Natalie and Lottie are constantly butting heads, vying for control of the group. Lottie wants everyone to understand The Wilderness and how it works, and Nat is trying to make everyone realize that it’s all bullshit. (is it?)

neither of them asked for it — to be opposing each other, locked together in a possibly never-ending battle — but it’s how it has to be.

but agreement and opposition are two sides of the same coin. they can’t escape each other even while they try. they’re forever interlocked by their contrasting opinions.

and interlocked by the crash. a plane fated to fall with both of them inside, alive in the aftermath. angry at being in the middle of nowhere, fighting for authority in the situation, stuck together nonetheless. unable to escape their circumstances or each other.

stags do the same thing.

they battle — literally butt heads — for a mate or for control of the herd. it’s a constant back-and-forth, back-and-forth; antlers trying to wound bad enough that the other will back down, or kill if they need to. if one thinks he’s better for the group than the other, this is how it has to be.

but sometimes they get stuck. the complex structure of antlers intertwining and locking them together.

it’s a great juxtaposition; angry, fighting, stuck together. unable to escape.

eventually, they’ll find a way to escape they grasp they were locked in. but the anger remains. the fight remains. and they fight again and again until one remains; victorious or surviving. the other defeated or dead.

Lottie and Natalie may have separated after their rescue, but they’re still angry. Lottie doesn’t understand what The Wilderness still wants, Nat still thinks it’s all bullshit. they battle until they finally reach an understanding; one surviving, one dead.

reblogged tags on a post of mine inspired these thoughts!

Is this... Normal behavior around here? ... Obviously I blend right in. I think I befriended the group with the smaller antlers? They seem nice.
