ALSO THIS IS NOT SHIP ART!!! THIS IS ART SPECIFICALLY FROM A SOURCE DIVERGENT FICTIVE'S MEMORIES!! its just a bonding moment its not meant to be romantic in any way please dont be weird or accusatory.
that being said
Dude I completely forgot about King's own potential injuries on his back due to being turned away from the beam upon the track seq, your big brain brings me awe..... I would honestly LOVE! a replica of these scars on our beloved quintet but unfortunately they would most indefinitely disappear (like every other inflicted injury) due to them having an obligatory origin respawn upon shenanigans death sigghhh
I enjoy your headcanon with pixel scarrings a VERY normal amount., i swear your honer I SWEEEAAR!!!!
THIS IS SO SICK /pos
Thank yoooooooou
The pixel scars are a beloved headcanon of mine because like,
With how destructive the beam of light was, theres no way Purple and King would come out of it unscathed
As seen in my "In the Week that Follows" fic
King would have his on his back since he was turned away from the staff while Purple would have scars on their front, mainly on their hands from blocking and a large chest scar from when King initially fired a bolt at them to make them let go of the staff
I am also SO normal about this, trust and believe

Been thinking about Agent for a while and how he's really the character - character ever. I'm really enjoying what they're doing with his arc of survivors' guilt and vengeance.
His design is so extensively simple that it's a bit intimidating. Glued to his profession of business and fixated on his target, Chosen. He is as stern as he is anonymous as a person. And then it's with appeal that you note how he is in this position of authority between these new cast of animations - primarily the word of command and the follow up of Victim's line of leverage. With how gorgeous and elaborate the cast is, your eyes stay intrigued towards this one character. Despite the simplicity he pops up as unique.
It's rather how he's always the bold and center of the cast in every shot. Always held high with precision. He acts as the voice of control in the animations; a carrier. He has a strong passion for his ambitions. And then you get to his objective for Chosen, but with the longer the sequences carry on, it appears as more.. personal when referenced towards his role of precise profession. Especially in comparison to the rest of the group.
And of course; his abilities with the Adobe tools. He's fast, strategic, intelligential, and quite proud of his judgement. He pirouettes around combat with such ability - you can beg that he has much experience. All the animations have such uniqueness and natural abilities and quirks. And then you have Agent; who comes just as skilled in compliment despite the set of tools being just an add on towards his attire. His great combat makes up for the comparison. But with such a manner, why would Agent gain such a material, and how come him as this executive messenger and leader out of the cast? When factually compared to their abilities, he's left as the most.. uninspiring.
But then you get to the topic of his relationship with Victim, and suddenly the idea becomes much more clearer. Agent being this predecessor of delivery. How he is noticeably walking in the same accuracy as Victim; side by side. Everyone else but behind. And Victim allows it. He's moreso comfortable with Agent out of the entirety; directly giving him more flexibility, space, authority and commands. He trusts him and he treats him as though he's on the same level as him, because that's what he believes. Everyone else below their invisible barrier. Agent is very evident with what he's given. Hyperaware of his surroundings and with the implements and gear.
With such bounded delicacy it pushes scenarios and questions. Who is Agent without his occupation in mind, but as a person. What is he like? Or rather much, was he like? If you ask me, I think it's worth asking as much as it is cryptic in context.
And then it strikes you all too somber.
As a role of a security guard for Victim, Mitsi and their blooming business of quick and improved repairs - he's still so expressive. And surprising enough, he's so, so close towards the couple despite his working position. He truly admires and cares for the two. And it's mutually returned. It's so oddly affectionate when steaming from someone who you familiarize as so utterly closed off and precise.
These strange origins passed off as he's stranded - downright frozen in fear from the terrorism and murder of Mitsi and hundreds (if not thousands) of others. Only looking up when it's directed towards the source, Chosen. (From his perspective after all.) And despite being someone of a role who does nothing but help and protect; he's left so small and useless. All he can do is run.
Time and time again, memories replaying over and over again. It's this obsession. Everything that he could of done in a loop, everything that he didn't do lingering close by. And he won't be that same person who does nothing.
Even when it's not at all his fault. Far from it.
And then everything just.. clicks in a way, no? His odd relationship with Victim, Victim's utter trust in him, his personal introduction and conflict with Chosen, his strict combats, his weaponry?
When you think Agent would stem from a place of deep turmoil and lament and act out towards these, he proves you wrong. He's so utterly petty, cocky and a bit immoral when finally opposed to a scenario of karma. When you think he stepped an area of low, he goes lower. It's honestly quite humorous. In my opinion, Agent's greatest offense is Second.
Agent is relentless when it comes to irrational interference, it shows in how he handles Second. He has no basic compassion or regard for the poor kid, nor any sympathy to spare for him either. He's ruthless. There was no other reason to humiliate and tease Second the way he does other than it being for his own satisfaction after finding out Chosen cares for him. And it's quite sad even.
And then, really? The huge, intimidating terrorist who was the source of sleepless nights, trauma, destruction and such influence is an irrational, confused fraud. His hazard reaction brings some odd amusement towards Agent.
An evident narrative callback is how Agent looks up towards Chosen, frozen. Under his reign, he's powerless. And now when finally up against this source, he can only ever look down on him.
Sometimes I beg if Agent can bitterly empathize with Chosen. The only difference being how Chosen is strong willed and desensitized - willing to push bounds if it means he can protect a loved one. Something that Agent can reminisce with. Envy of the audacity, it really reeks. And he freezes him on spot; a bit similar to how he was that day. It doesn't feel good, now does it.
But at the same time he leaves it up for Victim. He really holds him valuable and prioritizes him. It wouldn't be much of a stretch to say it roots from a place of guilt of the downfall of the buisness, or Victim's utter change in demeanor, or the thousands of suffering animations from the tragedy. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
In this very small way, he's a bit like him.
I had this stupid hc that Purple used to work for CD Guy during the time span of Orchid's illness to take a load off her shoulders in finances (much to her dismay of it obviously) but no one in the city seemed to partically enjoy the idea of child labor as one would, but CD Guy took this as an opportunity and said "ykw hell yeah"
He would give Purp encouragement talks on what makes a great cooperate management, how to market, gaslighting your customers, you know - all the good stuff. And luckily enough for Purple, none of the vents went out in vain because he used the tactics and strategies for his stupid trade buisness in the village because you know, con artists make con artistsss (and because I refuse to believe he went from a sad runaway orphan to a manipulative little shit so suddenly, he must have had someone at least because that's a rough transition,,,)
(Ooc: that is so big brained of you like seriously... /gen
im taking this hc though sorry /j)
