Yep. Theory.... Ha. Okay, all stuff is from patchy_bug. Spoiler btw, go play 1 and 2 of Cirque de Cat games. Let's start. We jump into theory, because yes. Current timeline, of what I have gathered. 1st game is set in dream, second ambiance game is set in show room of circus. We know that Luna ran away from the circus, maybe too much responsibility, or she hated what the ringmaster (Igo) made her do. So Igo is the ringmaster/ mastermind behind it all. They might have made Lio blind Thimble, just because, or made Luna do something she didn't want to. Lio does hate what Igo is making them do, but... They love the fame- Oh also... Lilo is YOU. Not Lio, not anyone else. Lilo is you. You might be another circus member, and maybe Luna's punishment was that she couldn't speak anymore. Both somewhat got in trouble with Igo at some point. But yeah, Luna ran away. Probably because of Igo, and she's trying to intervene between Igo and Lio's relationship, or have them run away with her too.
Theory | | | | Okay, Now I have a semi timeline. Lio, Lunacie, Thimble, Lilo, and Igo, Both Luna and Thimble did something to anger Igo, and one of their senses got poofed. They all were apart of a circus, They each had a bell on their neck collar looking thingy, like a security card. (as Lio said.) After Igo took away Luna's voice, She ran away from the circus, only contacting Lio via Morse letters, wanting to have Lio run away with her. And Lio planned this too, But Lunacie wanted to bring Thimble with them, Though Lio thought they were a Liability. I guess they might have also gotten Lilo to go with them (Not confirmed yet), They ran away to some place, (Also not confirmed yet) where Igo couldn't get to them. The first game is a dream about Lio's past. But with some modifications, No eyed Thimble, rat, and lamp, Owl. Bells. A mix of forest life and circus life, (Btw Lio probably lived in the forest before the circus) A memory of his old home, Yet he wasn't the same either. Instead of blue, (Which could symbolize innocence, or freedom, with red showing evil/ being caged? The shift from forest, freedom, home, to circus. Fear, caged, want.) His eyes were red. This dream was a dream of his old life. In the forest, with his true friend. (Ladybug) And many others. Now, we have a cast of 5. Lunacie, Thimble, Lio, Igo, and finally, Lilo/you. 5 members, 5 bells needing to be found for the true ending. Maybe it is him letting go of his old self, or the circus, or forgetting his innocence, past, the forest. All of that. Once he wakes up he finds a broken bell, and Lunacie. That's her bell. She moved on, yet Lio still has his. Maybe it's his desire to be loved, noticed. He wants to hold onto that love, despite the fact that Luna and Thimble, (His bell was blacked out in the dream world, so maybe.) And this ties into the quote from Thimble, "You know Lio, honestly, how's it feel? Does it feel good to have the whole world watching your every move, criticizing your every misstep? I hope you crumble under the pressure. I hope you fall off your game and Igo decides it's because your eyes aren't marketable enough, and he blinds you too. I hope you find what you're looking for, and then I hope you lose the ability to see it. Good riddance, Lio. I'm glad we're not real brothers." Thimble is referring to Lio's want for attention, Lio's looking for attention. (Probably. Also Igo is a he, so he can't possibly be the one who wanted to bring Lilo somewhere, probably Lunacie.) They want him to move on. But he can't. Oh alsoooo, Thimble may have been acting like Lio's brother in the circus. ANYWAYS :) I'm done now, go check out the game in 's Cirque de Cat studio.
