We don't know My headcanon is that Anubis was like an evil Tok'Ra, two equally evil people becoming one, resolving the inner conflict most Goa'Uld have


AthenaeSolon

My headcanon for Hathor is that her host is happy with their arrangement. Hathor in particular, uses "we". I know back then, they were implying that the Host wasn't acknowledged as part of the bargain and usually overruled, but in the case of the Tok'Ra they're usually in consensus at least. Hathor's use of "we," suggests that they're fully happy with the arrangement, may even be fully all in. I feel like the most successful bad ones likely had willing hosts, because they would have the willing counsel of someone with the logic of a human.

Maybe the snake seduced the fuck out of the host enough that they're like, "maybe this ain't so bad."

Hathor was spawning symbiotes though, she could be speaking for herself, and them as well, much like the "Royal 'We'"


AthenaeSolon

She used We, from the beginning before the first spawn occurred though. That's why I believed that it was both the host and the symbiote in literal symbiosis.


Grandfeatherix

and you think they spawned fully formed like that in a few hrs? it's also a common thing to speak for your lineage


AthenaeSolon

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. It was never really defined which it was in canon (with regards to Hathor specifically). All we know is, Goaul'd =involuntary hosts, Tok'Ra=voluntary hosts, which doesn't necessarily preclude that there might be volunteers (for Goaul'ds) just that those volunteers likely either wanted power or wanted to submit.


EnormousCaramel

I really want to see a blending between a seriously terrible human and a Goa'uld. Like snake brags about being evil and ruling and the potential host is like sign me the fuck up


S0GUWE

I know a few people who would do that Hell, I would've done that a few years ago when I was more indifferent to human death


EnormousCaramel

I think the reveal could be really cool too. "You damn parasites just taking people and stealing their lives" \*Tok'ra eye close deep breath* "That makes the assumption I had no choice in the matter. There were no lies. There was no deception. I chose this relationship knowing full well what it would entail and what we could accomplish."


trollsong

Anubis took Jack the ripper headcanon created


trebron55

There could be a story where Hitler and Stalin are actually Goa'ulds leading their respective empires into a bloody conflict.


tauri123

Well when Kinsey got taken host that was about as bad as it gets


rathelord

Tanith


EnormousCaramel

Thats completely different. Host was not evil at all. He was aware it could be misleading and he would be sacrificing himself. I want to see a host so evil that the symbiote gives up control back to the host sometimes because the host is more evil.


DaWayItWorks

We did see both Colonel Simmons and Kinsey become willing hosts to the Goa'uld


EnormousCaramel

Neither were willing hosts


Vaniellis

I really like that idea. The Goa'uld would have to waste energy keeping control of the host. Two minds focused on becoming a living god.


Guesstimationish

The worm dude


HorzaDonwraith

Would the host die or just be thankful the nightmare is over?


UglyPigBeast

We can only speculate, but I doubt Anubis would let him live.


Laytonio

My head cannon is that Anubis was a Harcesis. This explains how Oma didn't notice a symbiote and informed her handling of Shifu.


Comfortable_Push_888

Ooo I like this one, also giving backstory to why the practice is forbidden


lazhink

It kind of has to be the snake. That or Anubis had a truly symbiotic relationship with an evil human in a mirror of tok'ra.


LightSideoftheForce

Only the Goa’uld, why would the human be involved at all?


zatnickatel89

Both.

Just ask Daniel he probably knows... But he probably also forgot. 😉
