It is so funny how like. Almost invariably.

Character introduced or established early on as a/the Bad Guy — is more complicated than that — [ground up and churned out by the fandom machine] — certified 100% sad traumatized uwu baby that’s all

Character introduced or established early on as Good Guy — is more complicated than that — [ground up and churned out by the fandom machine] — certified 100% evil uncaring manipulator that’s all

PSA ! Gentle reminder to read the pinned post before sending in any questions!! You need to meet certain conditions (listed in the pinned post) in order for me to answer them!

I'll also be shifting away from answering Angel-centric questions for the time being, since more often than not, they usually elicit the same kind of response ^^; (Folks often ask how Ren would react to an Angel with a specific profession, personality trait, or interest; and the usual response is that he ultimately wouldn't mind & would cater towards it because he loves Angel for who they are.)

“Advance takes place before both adventure games!!1!!11” my brother in Christ. If this was supposedly set before sa2 then why would Sonic stay Super in space by himself for DAYS & come back w a solemn expression before smiling at the player to congratulate them for beating the game

Sometimes I think about the fact that we have absolutely no information on how long Aventurine actually spent in slavery.

He fled from the Avgin massacre as a young child, and we didn't see him again until he was a grown adult. I doubt he could have survived entirely on his own at that age and Sigonia's conditions seem too harsh for people to randomly adopt orphans, especially from a rival/outcast clan...

We do know that the master we see on screen was not his only master, because he was purchased from someone else, but we have no idea how many masters he had total before his final one, how many times he could have fled and been recaptured, how many times he was bought and sold...

We do know that Aventurine appears to have been kept on Sigonia or somewhere similarly tribal for those missing years, since his first request to the IPC is for Jade to take him to her "chief," but we don't even know how long Aventurine has been out of slavery. He doesn't look massively different in age from his "trial" with Jade to how he looks in-game now, and he did not rise through the IPC ranks over time like Topaz but won his role directly through his gamble with Jade and then later proving himself on Iymanika.

Basically, all this is leading to a big question: Is it possible that the Aventurine we know is only barely out of slavery? That there may be something like five years or fewer separating him from the wastelands of Sigonia? That he learned all these new behaviors, all this new information about how to operate as a free person in the universe, in what likely amounts to 2-3 years of Jade's guidance and his own hard work?

Man, what an incredible character. Really a standout among my very favorites.
