Ok so I think that there is some deep connection between The Oracle and the Axolotl. Originally, I thought they were one and the same, but now I’m not too sure about that… BUT there is still plenty of evidence showing that they are connected somehow.
[SPOILERS FOR JOURNAL 3 AND THE BOOK OF BILL] In Journal 3, it kinda hints about them being connected by her artwork. On the page about the Oracle, in the background of her artwork it shows multiple pictures of axolotls. But then there’s more subtle details that strengthens the theory even more. In a little coded note, on that same page, Ford describes her as “THE OPPOSITE OF BILL”; in The Book of Bill, at the end with the poem about Bill talking with the Axolotl, it says “THE OPPOSITES MET FACE-TO-FACE”.. There’s also some more proof.. On the page where Bill is talking about his Henchmaniacs, the scribbled out one on the bottom right page looks exactly like the Oracle, but because it’s scribbled out and labeled as “NOT important” it seems like they are no longer friends. And when going back to the end poem, there’s the line “HE PLED HIS CASE TO HIS OLD FRIEND”
What do y’all think?
