Inktober Day 2 - Discover CATCHING UP

[journey-tothesurface]

It’s probably been said better before, but Eleanor was unusually… clean for a little sister.

Like here are other little sisters from 1&2:

They’re barefoot and covered in miscellaneous grime. Their hair looks unwashed, and the way it’s styled is fairly low-effort (though this is more obvious with the first game’s model) as though they’re either doing it themselves or haven’t touched their hair since they were transformed. Their dresses are threadbare and incredibly stained: there’s blood and muck all down the front, and any white fabric is practically grey from all the dirt on it. If you look closely at the sisters in the second game, their hands are so filthy that their fingernails are almost entirely black. For their appearances to get this bad, little sisters would either be rolling in a mix of blood and coal dust on a regular basis, or no one has been taking care of their well-being for a long time. If it weren’t for Doctor Slug MD living in their stomachs, a good number of these girls would likely have gotten seriously ill from diseases caused or made worse by the neglect of their hygienic needs.

Now, look at Eleanor.

Eleanor’s hair is in braids (which would be a good 5-10 minutes of sitting still to get her hair done while she would otherwise be gathering ADAM), and it looks like it was done up that way fairly recently. Her face and clothes are spotless. For the average seven year old -hell even the average adult- keeping a white dress and white shoes that clean is impossible unless you lock it in an airtight box. If it were any other little sister those clothes would probably be too stained to identify what colour they’re supposed to be, and yet Eleanor’s little white outfit doesn’t have so much as a speck of dirt on it. There’s barely any grime on her, while other sisters created around the same time haven’t been bathed in so long that their fingernails are turning black. Ironically, her skin and clothes are more visibly dirty after she’s been living with Lamb and the Family for 10 years than they are when she was drinking blood and living in a ventilation shaft. So someone had to have been helping her bathe, and do her hair, and keep her clothes clean, for however long she was a little sister, but who?

Considering that Grace had her run-in with Eleanor and Delta some time before the 1958 new year’s celebrations, Eleanor had likely been a sister for at least a month or so when Sofia broke out of prison. However well Grace cared for Eleanor when she was her guardian, she wouldn’t have stayed clean for that long when she spent most of her time crawling through vents and draining blood from corpses. Whoever was in charge of the little sister program probably wasn’t tidying her up either: not when they couldn’t be bothered to make the little sisters less filthy in front of Andrew Ryan himself. Even then, Grace getting her jaw broken when she tried to approach Eleanor proves there’s no way someone in Rapture was getting close enough to Eleanor that they could touch her without Delta severely injuring them in the best case scenario.

So that leaves Delta himself. Even though his only purpose as a protector was to kill anything that got too close to his bonded little sister, Delta was probably the one taking the time to braid Eleanor’s hair, help her put on her shoes, and wipe the grime off her face and clothes. That probably wasn’t a small feat. Those suits are hardly designed for delicate work, and if Delta can crush a human skull under his boot then he could kill a child Eleanor’s size just by flicking his wrist a little too hard. So if it was Delta keeping Eleanor clean, not only was he doing something that big daddies were never expected or conditioned to do, but he also would have been putting in a conscious effort to be gentle with Eleanor as he did. Honestly I lost track of where I was going with this, I’m just emotional about how despite everything he lost when he arrived in Rapture, Subject Delta loved his daughter so much that he chose to braid her hair and wash her face as the city fell to ruin.

physically incapable of being mean to this girl

got a lovely comment on a Horizon Zero Dawn fic of mine that needs an overhaul in terms of pacing and general writing quality. I'm not saying that to be hard on myself - my writing style has changed and grown since, and it's important to me to keep improving and refining.

but this is 1) a good reminder not to be hyper-critical of myself, and that what shines through any work is the intent, and 2) validation in remembering that the sequel fucking SUCKED!!!

You know maybe Flemeth *wasn't* full of shit when she said Morrigan was never in danger from her. But certainly Flemeth allowed Morrigan to think that, and from how she talks in da2 may have even instigated it. Hm. Expected and wanted Morrigan to strike off on her own, go into hiding, until Flemeth was good and ready for the next step in her plot. Freeing Flemeth in a way to run off and do what she wills, away from Morrigan's eyes.

Because I'm inclined to believe that Morrigan thought she was in real danger, even ignoring Inquisition, but also that this was the excuse Morrigan needed to take Flemeth out of the picture. I don't think she ever really planned to return to Flemeth, or at least not to stay with her (and Inquisition implies she never had any real grand plan at all, which is mildly disappointing but it can track, that it would mostly be about having this child on her own terms and not subject to her mother's whims, and meanwhile try to figure out later what Flemeth might have planned to do with it). Honestly Morrigan might even have read what she wanted into that ritual, or assumed due to how Flemeth is, and with all signs pointing to there being one continuous long-lived Flemeth and no other witches of the wilds, that it was something Flemeth would not hesitate to do to her (or her child).

I was inclined to believe Flemeth was full of shit because they give her a kinder vibe in da2 and Inquisition that I find it hard to buy. She was kookier in origins, sure, but there was a definite edge to how she speaks, and especially to Morrigan. So the whole "nice grandma" thing felt weird and I filed that away as "she's full of shit and playing Morrigan" ages ago without really revisiting it.
