>The knight confirmed to be wearing a helmet, heavily devaluing the antlers as an identity marker
You know that this is cope
>The entirety of the knight's body shape and size being completely and utterly out of whack to the rest of the holiday family.
Noelle and her mother are both relatively tall and slender. They also have hooves which are closer to The Knight's tapering legs than normal feet. Noelle's interaction with the Shadow Mantle implies that Dess is even taller (and that the Mantle is meant for her).
Also if your argument is The Knight (who is just a generic slender humanoid figure with antlers) doesn't look at all like Dess that's defeating the "The Knight is FRIEND possessing Dess's body/imitating Dess to freak out Kris" theories. It sure as hell doesn't look like a cat.
>The chapter 3 ball fortune about "that chair is going to kick your ass"
Why are you focusing on this tangential connection to FRIEND more than the direct reference to Dess's guitar or the whole 1225 secret where you get an entire sequence about Kris's connection to Dess?
>in the chapter where kris and the knight are explicitely working together on an elaborate scheme.
You can apply this same argument to all of the references to Dess we get in Chapter 3
>The "one-eyed" theme
What the fuck does this have to do with FRIEND?
If The Knight is supposed to resemble FRIEND in any way where's the pink and yellow? Where's the teeth in it's smile? Why not show us the same face it's been showing everywhere else? It's not exactly shy about showing off.
