OVER THE GARDEN WALL

Somewhere lost in the clouded annals of history lies a place few have seen. A mysterious place called the Unknown. Forgotten by time, yet, still well remembered by those who travel through the wood.

The power is out and it's cold which means the beast DEMANDS to be tucked under three blankets before I leave

Happy 10 Years <3 (sorry for the compression, the original image was 2 FREAKIN GB)

I remember seeing these air live so vividly, it's crazy to think it's already been so long!

I tried doing a more storybook style art piece, and I'm really happy that I finally get to use my watercolor brushes!

Since you sometimes make a distinction between the two different versions of The Fury and The Wraith as well as the Beast and Witch versions of The Wild, would you care to discuss how you interpret the two versions that makes them worth distinguishing?

Oh, sure!

Honestly, I tend to differentiate the shared Chapter IIIs more often than not in my head, even if I don't always specify in writing. This is because I tend to think of all the Chapter IIIs as continuations of their Chapter IIs -- which is why I also find it increasingly hard to ship things like, say, Witch/Thorn and I find it harder to imagine Adversary & Eye of the Needle interacting, unless it's a case of two alternate universe versions meeting.

But I also make more of a distinction between Chapter IIIs that are, in my opinion, very different from one another in some key way. This is definitely most obvious with the Greys, who flat-out have names specifying which is which in fandom (Burned Grey and Drowned Grey are by far the most common in my experience)... But the two Furies and two Wilds also have very obviously different driving desires and motivations, in my opinion.

Adversary!Fury feels empty. She has lost you. If you make it through her torment, she makes it clear that's what she's so upset about. She had a moment of fleeting happiness with you she's clinging onto, she thought she understood something about you, and you left her feeling alone and empty.

On the other hand, if you make it through Tower!Fury's torment, she makes herself clear as well, and it's different. She was furious that you denied her, furious about what you did to her. And now she has broken your will, the way Tower wished, but she's found it to be hollow. It hasn't made her happy. "I am forever a piece unfinished," she says, "A song with no refrain." The song that she wished for, of you choosing to free her, release your goddess upon the world... That can never be. And she is in despair thinking that you will never be able to understand her.

With the two Furies, their differences are also more obvious in The Pristine Cut given the drastic differences between their routes. Yes, there are some similar endings you can get in their chapters (if you have the right voice with you in Adversary!Fury, that is). But it's only with Cold or Broken in Adversary!Fury that you can leave with her, or leave without her, or bury your blade in her heart. And Adversary!Fury's reaction if you defeat her with Contrarian is very different from Tower!Fury's reaction if you defeat her with Cold. And, notably, Broken and Cold only reach the stage of empathizing with Adversary!Fury.

The differences between the two Wilds are more subtle, but IMO are still a significantly different driving force. In Beast!Wild, if you look at what is in your now-shared heart, after she begs you not to make you remember what she was, you find your own fear. But in Witch!Wild, if you choose to look at that concealed thing, after she begs you not to make you remember what you both were... It's hatred. It's both of your hatred. Beast!Wild doesn't want to go back to "the fear and the hunger and the pain"; Witch!Wild doesn't want to go back to "the doubting and the hatred and the schemes." They are both avoiding different things, Beast!Wild seems to more be wanting to avoid thinking about what she had been while Witch!Wild wants to ignore what both of you had been, and while both Wilds feel like it's right to be a single being now, Beast!Wild is the one who specifically talks about having put things back how they were supposed to be. While Witch!Wild shouts about remembering herself, going back to hating and hurting you, before... "I wish I didn't have to."

In comparison, the two Wraiths aren't as blatantly different, but they still definitely have different dialogue before possessing you. It's also possible to get to them in... similar, if backwards, ways. While you can get Spectre!Wraith by just straight-up trying to slay her first thing every time you meet her, well... You can get to Spectre!Wraith by killing her ASAP and then trying to abandon her, and get to Nightmare!Wraith by trying to abandon her and then killing her ASAP. It's easy to just not bother differentiating between the two! But I think the fact that Spectre, even the harsher version of Spectre, has such a different personality and approach from Nightmare, means that Spectre!Wraith and Nightmare!Wraith are still definitely different people even with their strong similarities. They've become quite a bit like each other, though, after everything you have done to them.

...TL;DR honestly I always tend to make a distinction between the different versions in my head, since I think of them still as part of/an extension of their specific Chapter IIs. But some of the shared Chapter IIIs are very very different from each other, in a lot of ways or in a few key ways, and so I tend to differentiate more often with some of them than with others. Because it feels way weirder to talk about "the Fury" without saying which I mean than to do that with "the Wraith." (And I can't imagine doing it with "the Grey" at all.)
