things we know about Q and my theories:

I wouldn’t call Q some mastermind, manipulating everyone behind the scenes tbh Q seems really out of it, always jittery and anxious. I always felt like he’s the insecure type, he never stands up for himself, and he’s always getting dragged around by G even though i’m pretty sure Q is his senior. Hear me out, there might be a reason to that.

Also you’re onto something with it being Q’s pig fat and not eating (I never noticed that). The fact he doesn’t eat is to maybe not allow for his pig fat to grow to a larger size and so they simply feed the entity to maintain his weight? Also, I think him starving himself is affecting him so he always seems not all there, maybe it’s easier for G to manage him? who knows

maybe I wasn't clear in my thoughts but me saying he's willing to fuck with the rest of the farm is in no way me thinking he's doing it cause he's evil, or some big bad manipulator if anything I thought my opinion was clear that I see him as a victim of circumstance and the organisation.

Though now I do think you're onto something with G though. Q being demoted because he turned and G using the meds to control Q but G still having to be the one to feed the fat is an interesting dynamic that feels like Q used to have more power than now.

Honestly this whole story has my neurons firing like crazy cause there's so many hints to things and I love how much the author commits to the insanity of it all.

Also the way he treated that chicken is very science low eq high iq type.

omggg my bad I completely misread what you wrote, but yeah damn I didn’t even realize G was feeding Q pills either like am I reading this half-asleep(yes), anyways i think that’s why Q’s inhibitions are so docile because of the pills? we’ve already seen that his emotions control the blob, they’re like two entities separated, so they feel each other and so maybe the pills are given to Q to keep both of him under control

Also G doesn’t usually feed the fat, that’s all on Q, I’m not sure why G came down to feed the fat… okkk hold on something just came to mind as i’m writing this. Q and the fat are basically one, they feel each other. Remember when G asked Q “Did something good happen today?” I have a crazy theory that G coming down to feed the fat (something he doesn’t do) was the thing that made Q a little too happy. I don’t think there’s any seniority ties to it but rather just Q getting excited by the idea that G can actually show some form of acknowledgement towards him by feeding the blob (since its technically him). Honestly, Q is like this lovesick puppy, kind of. He basically shares a presence with G and lets him do anything to him (not by choice ofc), and the slightest hint of G treating him kindly by feeding him makes him absolutely burst.

Sorry if this got too long but the Q and G brainworms are wriggling in my brain rn

just reread ch 15 cause I thought I remembered it wrong but Q definitely was happy because the cows and K were happy, He definitely has a sensitive sense of smell. Thus also He seems grateful for Little A. You are totally right about him and the fat being one tho cause apparently the fat was being overzealous with G because he was happy before he arrived and G even told Q to control himself and didn't speak as if the fat was a separate entity.
Also I'm now wholly convinced they work together in the formal sense because G called Q Senior when the fat was overtaking him. it's actually insane how much info and implications they put in such few panels.
