Just thought I could throw this out there. I saw 2012 The Lorax a few times this week and I never knew how good it actually was since the last time I saw it at 10 years old when it came out in theaters. For anyone who knows what I’m talking about, you’ve probably heard of Oncest, which is a onceler x greedler ship for anyone who doesn’t know. Although I’m starting to ship it (not in a sexual way, in the most fangirls ‘i think they should have s*x’ kind of way, more of hugs and kisses every now and then), the number one question everyone including me asks is how can this be if they both are the same person? Well I’m here to try to debunk this with my own explanation using my story writing skills.
I like to visualize Greedler as a spirit of greed or should I say, a deadly sin demon since he is usually described with sharp teeth and claws. The reason he’s in love with the onceler is because he “grew attached to him” when the Lorax and animals left. In which in Greedler’s old world, it is the number one rule he was not suppose to break, “don’t grow attached to your victims,” just do the job of corrupting their soul and do it right. In honesty, who wouldn’t fall for the Onceler? He’s so hot.
Anyways, as we know, there are seven deadly sins for anyone who is Christian like me, which means Greedler would not be the only deadly sin demon. These sins are Pride (vain, Narcissistic or putting yourself above others), Envy (like anger only Jealousy involved), Sloth (laziness), Wrath (anger, pure hatred), Gluttony (wasteful), Lust (rape, bestiality) and of course Greed which you all know the definition of that. That’s all I’ve got to say.
