Ahti might just be something other than a human or a board member entirely. In the Oceanview Motel he has his own room, where it is said that no other door but the pyramid door could ever be opened. I actually wonder if the Board even knows of his existence...?

[@thelandpiranha4108]

I have a theory that he is the personification of the oldest house, I mean, how else would he know how to fix everything, and his vacation is in a restricted, and greatly unknown part of the map, plus it seems like he can see right though Jesse's mask of being the director, and to top it off, the casset that he gave her so she could pass through the maze, the oldest house really does know how to make a likeable person.

I always find it so funny when he puts his hands in his pockets and does that little sniff in 0:10 - he's just so casual about singing a total Finnish banger. Like he does it every single day.

[@arandomsanti3228]

Older finish men sing karaoke regularly and it's always these kind of songs so yeah. Probably does it all the time

[@DeltaSilver88]

To be fair, Suosalo is this casual all the time. My mom and I have seen him on stage several times and his monologues are always relaxed and full of dry wit, like a real life Ahti. He's also just as casual with his audience... I once approached him after a monologue for an autograph and it felt comfortable to talk to him. And this is coming from a naturally shy person who usually just gets rattled from chatting people up. :D Not to mention he's a great actor in general, so this IS "every single day" for him. There's a reason why he and Mika Nuojua have been performing Stones in His Pockets to sold-out audiences for 19 years.

I just realized that Ahti probably sung this himself and then listens to this and Take Control all the time while doing his janitorial duties

[@SITSIndustries]

I just realised that this recording is the version Ahti is listening to on his walkman as he's mopping at the beginning of the game (we don't hear this very clearly). In-game Ahti is softly singing along to himself.

[@zegareg]

Isn’t this the only version?…

[@Tzen03]

I like the idea that Ahti is the mysteriously powerful caretaker keeping everything from falling apart, until he can subtly guide key people to where they need to be, when they need to be there.

I remember one theory for him is he’s not a Janitor of the Oldest House, he’s the Janitor of existence in general, that why even the entire bureau is still just seen as “assistants” to him.

@@naKuhito "Once, I mistook an ocean for a lake", he recited a poem In the mystery's depths he spent his life. Under the dark sea, in shadows, he wanders Searching for his way to light, to his beloved, forever. Alone, the hero travels deeper into the night, away. That burden on his shoulders would remain there always, like a promise. In this game, this fool is beaten down, again and again Only a moment's rest in death is given, already being summoned back. Time shatters, a shot echoes into eternity. They/she/he will never encounter a happy ending. So many times this story has been told already Hero has a thousand faces, a hopeless path ahead. Alone, the hero travels deeper into the night, away. That burden on his shoulders would remain there always, like a promise In this game, this fool is beaten down, again and again Only a moment's rest in death is given, already being summoned back.

He got a very expanded part in AW2 and we're all better off for it!

[@Cinetyk]

I don't know why I've only found this video now, since I've played Control over 4 times now. I'm Portuguese from Portugal - I can't really understand the words he is singing, but somehow the music and flow I feel like I get. When meeting Ahti in the game it's kind of the same thing: first sounds very harsh, but you kinda get it. Also, in the english subtitles in the game: yes local provincial proverbs translated sound so weird and alien - but if you take a second you can kind of get the intent. It's both weird and particularly wonderful that AW2 comes along and it ignites this all again within me. BTW, superb game, such an unique experience. I'm still processing it

[@vksasdgaming9472]

In addition to Finnish swearing Ahti uses literally translated idioms which make him appear otherworldly.
