I mean Porter tells Audrey that he learned it, & the fact Heidi gave her the fast travel power by touching her face the same way the Memory of Joey did to teleport her to BATIM Ch1 always struck me sus. So, this part of his bio always struck me as 1: a response to the popular→

I like to think he mastered it by being revived by the dark puddles so many times. For all we know his “first death” in Batim might not have been his first. He must have died so often that the more he was exposed to the ink the more he was able to flow through it naturally.
@Xorithix
Idk, but in chapter two of batim you see him walking when you’re in the inky hallway, i think it’s referring to that or the musical puzzel when he’s in the balcony.
