For a couple years we had Actually analyzing Phil's income and he was pretty much spot on with it. So Kat knows how much Phil makes if she has so much as come here to read up on us calling her a zombie raccoon or whatever the insult du jour was. It's been said before, but for Kat, Phil was nothing but an improvement over her situation. Some bankrupt conman who will probably not do jailtime is better than a hard working dude if all you care about is money. And of course, let's not forget: Kat has a criminal record and is on happy pills. Both of them can't really do much better than each other, but Phil could easily get a much hotter gold digger if he tried.
I don't know if Kat is about as dumb as a rock or what, but I figure she can understand Actually's analysis mostly because it was VERY easy to understand even if you were a math thickie. Much like Phil, if she somehow eventually proves that she really IS that dumb, I'll be flabbergasted. Of course, it's not impossible.
In short, this year has been great for Phil. He's out of debt and gets to keep more of the money he makes; this is one of the bigger reasons he's cranked up the begging to 11. We know he's still whaling on gacha, so that and takeout is where the money goes. We know he treats Kat to meals a lot, and bought her some basic stuff as well as some entertainment related things. It's ironic, but I honestly think Phil spends more money on gacha than on Kat. Making himself a victim of the same "Why don't you just blow your stacks on an e-whore who will at least do stuff to herself for you" paradox that his paypigs suffer from.
As for love and the relationship being on, it's impossible. Phil has made a couple of attempts at saying Kat was REALLY hot. "She could be a swimsuit mahdel", Phil told us. "I'm really lucky to be with her." Hilariously, this was before we saw her. The collective laughing fit that was had on kiwi and detractor chats alike nuked Darksy's ego and made Kat ghost the internet. When she had potato'd out and appeared as a witch for Halloween, there was another collective pants-shitting laughter fit, Kat ghosted us for good and it was Tevin's (and his shithead fanbase's) fault. To be fair, there was a lot of chat about how ugly she was and how she was getting blacked in a yellow thong caw, but nothing really too terrible. Being a streamer's girlfriend is a rough situation where even legitimately charming people earn some ire from the public. A 7/10 hottie who had recently started talking shit to one of the thinnest skinned people on the internet was a pretty tough act to follow, and for all the talk of change and maturing Dark did even back then, Leanna actually grew out of being an annoying She-Fadil into her own person, and even on her channel, when she dropped the Darksy-style commentary, was far more bearable than he ever was. Kat was just bad at games, didn't even take the controller from Phil once, and had a boring, charismaless personality. Total winner on camera, people.
The interactions between Panda and Phil showed that she at least was interested in him for whatever reason. Phil really was a dead fish at the best of times, but Panda ocasionally leaned in close, touched him, and showed she was comfortable enough around him. Kat being an autismo makes her body language a bit tougher to read, but she mostly behaves around Phil like traumatized dogs do around humans. It looks like she's ready to try to dodge a kick to the snout at the drop of a dime. And to be real: "I'm really happy to be here with......... Phil." and the borderline flinching when he touches her, as well as the only kiss she gave him live being a completely chaste peck on the cheek, and her needing to mentally prepare before doing so HEAVILY implies they haven't even fucked once. That is not a couple that has been intimate. This is a big part of Phil's newlyfound Flanders-like opposition to sex, romance and intimacy. Sour grapes is really all it comes down to. My machoor adult horsemaid doesn't want to touch me, therefore anyone who touches, kisses, hugs or enjoys being close to their partner physically is an immature child. Pigroach luck didn't even manage to strike and even the Derichiest of wheelchairs called Kat out for what she was: A clear Panda downgrade in every sense.
To me, the final nail in the coffin of what Phil and Kat were all about were the marriage pictures. Phil bursting out of his prom suit, nice and alcohol bloated, looking very robust, sticking it to both us detractors and Pandaree since he married around the same time he pulled the last chance marriage attempt with Leanna. Kat giving her generic toothy smile, not really looking happy, but looking well fed. Makeup by Homer Simpson's shotgun, as usual. Shitty dress and rings from supposedly the mall. Met the parents and married at their house on pretty much the same weekend, then went for takeout. Her eyes say "Look at me ma, I nailed me an open wallet!" No squeezing each other, just a shoulder grab for the picture, not unlike the first stream Kat was on. No feeding each other cake. No dancing. No kiss picture. We haven't really talked in depth about just how much of a sham Phil's marriage is, but I figure it's about time we laid out a big analysis like this. Oh and Phil, if it makes you mad, prove me wrong and bring Kat out to do pass the controller streams with you. Or you can play A Way Out together. C'mon, dude, look happy and joyful and so. Maybe for the next big reveal stream you can introduce us to Tyrone if your wheelchairs hit the 3K tips goal.
