I'm not sure I understand your definition or the point of your "head games". Is it still a head game if they really wanted to test Michael's blood? Given Walt's special abilities, testing the dad's blood makes sense.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

What is even happening?
I'm not sure Walt has special abilities. There's a mechanasmokeasaurus and polar bears on that island. I think it's all head games, and by that, I'd say I meant 'psychological experiment' except I think that's too respectable a term.

But then why all the Hanso website and such?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The bird thing at his mother's house was just coincidence?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I do wonder if the astral projection (with Shannon) was actually Walt's abilities, or the Others fucking around with a hologram (or something). Because how else would they know?

No, it was leprechauns.

Michael never saw Walt when he was somewhere else, right? Just Shannon.

Sayid saw Walt?
I honestly don't remember. That seems like a really long time ago.
So, these 4 people that Michael is supposed to bring back - are they the good ones? Ooooh, they've all had hallucinations - Jack and his dad, Hurley and Dave, Kate and the horse, and, um, didn't Sawyer see Kate's horse? Or something?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
what would be the purpose of head games with Michael?
