#day 5: blood

[thefourchimes]

to lose your path (is the way to find that path)

In a flash, throwing her right back to the present, Robin immediately took it all in: Nancy still had a tight grip on her gun, but was now also holding one of her own tomahawks to her neck. She then saw the way Nancy smirked at her. Robin really wanted to stop finding herself in situations like these.

They fight as they have been ever since this all started. Except more blood is spilled than usual.

Nancy watched the blood trickle down her hand. Her eyes seemed attached to the crimson red splotches in her bathroom sink. It was better than looking at the wound. She was meant to be washing it out. She was meant to be taking care of herself.

On the other side of the bathroom door Robin Buckley was waiting. Nancy knew that. She could imagine Robin pacing the floor. She had been worried. Worried enough to warm Nancy’s cold, frozen heart.

Very Evil Stafford Gambit ❗

(Symbolism breakdown undercut)

(Watching the original video of the song will probably help so I recommend looking it up on youtube shorts!)

The Stafford Gambit starts with the Petrov's Defence, which has both players repeating each others moves, this represents the fact that Akechi and Joker are two sides of the same coin, equally matched.

White is Akechi. Black is Joker

But as the game unfolds, white makes mistakes by being greedy or acting without thinking. This is a game where black uses aggressive play against white.

So as Akechi starts slipping, that's when the PT prevails, even if there are certain victories Joker gets from Akechi that don't feel good. (Engine Room Sacrifice)

The game is set when Akechi comes back to life.

But the Stafford Gambit is about sacrifice. To achieve victory, Black must put the Knight at risk (the PT) and allow his Queen (Akechi) to die. In the end, they both thought that they were playing the same gambit and would win because Akechi too has made plenty of sacrifices himself, but he messed up.

But it all comes down to the line of 'Take the Queen' by white, the one who has to be greedy and make the move that dooms himself is Akechi. Taking the queen will be his loss, by 2/2 he already knows there's no winning-so he is encouraging Joker to finish the game and win like he is meant to. White takes Queen, as self-sabotage. Giving up on the game.

The thing is that Akechi is wrong about one thing. He is not helping Joker win against Maruki by doing this, the game of chess is between the two of them from the start. And Joker does win, but his win is against Akechi by proving to Akechi that he survived on the last three shots. From belief alone.

Joker wins the Stafford Gambit. He sacrificed, Akechi took bait, Joker uses his two weapons, metaverse and being a hopeful fool, so they get their happy ending.

(Hope this made sense AND hope you enjoyed the animatic <3)

ULTRATOBER /// FIFTH REDESIGN

Additional design notes below the cut:

Rough concept sketches, plus a "phase 1" that I didn't end up drawing:

The idea was to make the minotaur into something more akin to a statue of Theseus killing the minotaur but as a singular being, as opposed to two: warring figures in a stalemate.

The idea was similar to antler-locked stags: the only way to end the brawl is for both parties to die, or for one of them to decapitate the other, which happens in phase two as it wrenches the torso from its back to put its head back into place. This of course is representative of the actual myth itself, but bonus points if the "human" torso on itself looked like Minos's real human son (a war between the mythological and physical version of his greatest mistake that ends in it pulverizing what remains of the human version that only Minos knew in a desperate bid for freedom. This version, too, only wishes to see the sky).

In the final, I changed the hammer from the intial sketch into an axe, and added teeth into the blade to resemble the Flesh Prison. No real reason behind this one, the hammer just looked weird in the end composition. I could have emphasized the snake tail a little more, but it looked a little jarring so it's just kind of hinted at.

Anyway, this design was REALLY tough to come up with because I adore the in-game minotaur. Genuinely one of my favorite designs in the whole game (though every Violence design knocked it out of the park imo). I do, however, have a reputation to upkeep and that reputation is drawing progressively sadder cows.
