WELL…. I spent my first 6 hours of vacations on THIS. For what? I have no idea I'll never finish it, I just wanted to do this fast sketch!

The idea came from the incredible animatic by @ inkzectz

Rhys Strongfork -"The Cool CEO" (not you)

I'm thinking of @krotiation post about how Rhys is strong sm and I'm just wondering of Anu and him

Anu presents herself as genius - after all, she made the device to mimic power of sirens which is just very awesome but... We don't see her genius at all in the game. All we see is that she's dependant on her goggles to analyse for her.

The way the comments are built in the game suggest that Rhys had some doing to them. They are snarky, they get some Atlas marketing in there too and while Echo devices had always existed with some remarks, they have their own character well before Ocvatio puts additional programming in.

Best way to show how dependant she's on them is Episode 4. When she reaches her designed spot where she's made to believe to be seen as genius, she problems solves through... The goggles. She doesn't solve the issues by herself at ALL - everything has to be said to her.

Through Tales, we watch Rhys use the Echo device a lot. But there are many moments, in combat or through hacking in Ep 3 that show its only an enhancer of his abilities, not main source of them. It is of course unfair a bit to say - as he also has the arm that he uses a few times, since it's stronger than his body but, I feel his loss of the devices is very significant. Because at the end of the day - he wanted a manager position from the start. He was sometimes an asshole, a coward, but in the end, he did exactly what he wanted. Through his own hard work, he got to the top.

They both used their echo devices to analyse. Anu however, used it to think for her. Rhys used it to help him think.

Timothy: "You stay positive, you always believe everything is going work out. How do you do it?"

Claptrap: "Well, I'll tell you my secret, Timothy. I lie to myself. Every morning, when I wake up I say "Everything's gonna be okay!" but I'm lying. And I don't know how much longer I can do it. *squeals* Have a swell night, Timothy! *happily rolls away*"

I literally love him I’m gonna sob and throw up and cry
