We have a lot of theories about Cave Story.
We don't have many about Pixel.


So here it is - one of the questions that has been bothering me the longest in the universe, and the one I have the least idea about.
If you don't think he is a rl mermaid, how about a metaphorical, rhetorical, allegorical, metaphysical, historical, or janitorial one?


Discuss.

I hope he's not, because I don't like mermaids....

But he is in Japan, and japan is surrounded by seawater, so....

*Cough*

No.
But he could be a Merman.
That was just asking to be said though.
Or Mergod, who doesn't pray to Pixel and Cave Story nightly?

Perhaps a more fruitful discussion would be to consider whether his psyche is that of a mermaid.
Or, perhaps, if he wants to be a mermaid.

I know I do.

I couldn't think of an "Eats" sign.

Mermaids = Fish
Pixel loves = Cats
Cats nom = Fish
Confliction?

That sounds more like Vore.

So if he's a mercat, then he's into vore? The more you know...

Wait, Lace.
There are just some things that should not be drawn by mortal hands.

Off topic?

Right, let's go find him real quick.
I'm pretty sure we could at least start with the old Witch tests, like the Salem Witch Trials, those were pretty effective weren't they?

Pixelism forbids drawing a likeness of the prophet Daisuke.

Hence a half-fish-half-cat creature with glasses and a bra of shells.
Unless you're SAYING that's what pixel looks like!

I imagine Pixel is a cat.
A magical floating cat that can shoot laz0rs out of his eyes.
Which fries fish with his laz0r eyes before eating them.
Because Pixel likes fried fish that he fried with his laz0rs.

What did I just type?
