once upon a time, when I was in the process of calculating death stats, I was chatting with a friend about it and they asked me who the most innocent player in 3rd life was. an interesting question, but first we had to define what "innocence" was.
in the end, we decided that "innocence" was, more or less, "goodness." it was primarily based on whoever had the fewest kills, but to narrow things down further, other factors would be considered. did they ever try to kill people? were they loyal to their allies? did they steal? cheat? grief? who truly didn't deserve what happened to them?
according to that definition, the most innocent player in 3rd life was Jimmy. as you all know, he was also the first one out.
on to last life. Jimmy is out first again, yes, but someone actually narrowly beats him for the Most Innocent Player award.
it's Tango.
and then, in double life, the two of them are soulmates. it's as if the universe took the two players who would not play its game viciously enough, brutally enough, cruelly enough, and doomed them by giving them each other. it cursed them for their innocence because the life series is not meant to be a game of kindness and mercy. it is not a game of making vows with your ally. it is not a game of giving your life away to save others. it is a death match. and so, for their goodness, they will die first. together.
#just two guys doomed by the narrative together#they're a perfect ally match honestly#jimmy has a history of preferring small alliances#and tango is so incredibly loyal and will never ever back out on a promise#and the soulbound is a promise in a way#a promise to keep each other alive#and well. they tried their best.#double life#life series#team rancher#overrainylyzed
