THE ALT IS BASICALLY SMOKE'S FANTASY WORLD AFTER HE WAS LET OUT OF THE ISLAND

I would expect more DOOM, DEATH, DESTRUCTION, HOMICIDAL CAREBEARS or something for that to be true. D:

[despedida]

well... maybe hes painting the alt to be all sweet and contrite bc the destructive death homicidal part is the island timeline~*

[exmemoriter]

I just don't know.

Really, the Sideways world confuses the helllllllll out of me.

Only when it doesn't make my brain seep out of my nose and ears .. lol

Nah, Darlton said it's real, those things are actually happening.

If this is the case, I want to know what the problem is, because things seem pretty peachy there.

[lostsailors]

Oh I just meant all the people who aren't dead, who have a second chance with their loves. Like Ben and Locke's lives are 10 million times better than their Island counter-selves.

I definitely prefer the Island story and those characters are the ones that feel "real" for sure, but I don't really think Locke will be happy to remember he is dead or Ben will be happy to recall he's a murderer or that Charlie will like to know he's also dead and his OTP is insane etc, etc. That is all I am getting at with my comment. The Island versions of these characters seem infinitely less happy/dead than some of their alt counterparts. I much rather watch the Island characters deal with stuff though, if they come out the better for all their misery, that's the best situation of all!
