Chromed Seven (Plus Foundation) minus Origin, are probably gonna patrol Chapter 8 and we'll have bosses of them and everything,
if we get Corrupted Scientist and Visitor in the Chapter 8 Season 1 battle pass i'll flip the heck out
Geno's propaganda posters feature The Foundation, The Visitor & The Scientist with OATHBOUND Visors! 👀
So... WHAT does this mean? 🤔
I believe that this is our FIRST LOOK at the Chromed Seven post-resculpting. As for The Foundation, it seems to allude that his absence was actually because Geno or DV abducted him after Shattered.
Personally, that was something I began to suspect as CH7S3 began to come to an end. Foundation's sudden absence, despite him surviving, was very unnatural given how much The Seven needed their leader.
Now that Geno's connections to The Nothing & TLR are becoming more apparent, it seems that the Chromed Seven & Foundation may have had their existence resculpted to actually serve Geno.
I theorize that their new purpose may now be to POLICE Geno's perfection, which was what The Sisters were engineered from birth to do before they were abandoned by Geno. Hence why "OBEDIENCE" is bolded in the poster that shows Foundation, Visitor & Scientist. They are now OBEDIENT to Geno, which also explains why Geno said "The Seven may still prove useful to me."
What's "a fate darker than the worst imaginable" if not a fate where you're forced to go against the very beliefs you held dear and police the beliefs you've always fought against? They'd rather die than do that, but they can't. They have no choice.
The Chromed Seven (alongside Foundation) also returning in their original suits rather than being completely transformed would make things a lot more haunting. Most of the Loopers have always looked up to The Seven to help them escape the Loop & fight the IO. So seeing those same people return, but now police the beliefs of their enemy would make a lot of Loopers lose hope and give in to Geno's Imagined Order.
Also, I'm sure some of you are wondering why Origin is missing here. Personally, I believe it's because of two things:
🔸Visitor, Scientist & Foundation are more recognizable than Origin.
🔸The writers needed to explain what happened to Foundation and that he's under Geno's control now so they showed Foundation instead of Origin.
Or maybe not, there could be a different reason. We'll have to see!
Whatever the case may be, I'm hyped that the return of the Chromed Seven is drawing near. Maybe we'll get some content of them towards the end of this chapter and then the plotline will continue throughout Chapter 8? Time will tell.🤷♂️
