I missed my chance last year. Not gonna let it happen again

Weekend break

I'm haunted by feelings of things I can't remember

but what would I be without the ghosts?

The opposite of a haunting is something very lonely.

"Oh, what a lovely boy... You're not really going to shoot me, are you?"

The red light pulsed in his hand. Fumes sizzled up from the floor where acid and desert dust begged to be ignited. I looked into Hendricks' eyes and everything suddenly seemed so clear.

"Yeah, Eliah, I am. Unless you put that down. Carefully. Right now."

I was waiting for him to laugh at me. Or to drop the orb. Or to say that I was bluffing.

He didn't.

"Yes, boy. I believe you will."

[id: art of Fetch Phillips and Eliah Hendricks from Dead Man in a Ditch. The two stand in a cavern on opposite ends of a rocky bridge. Along the left side of the bridge is a decrepit railing that has broken away on the rest of the bridge. On the right metal piping extends from the floor to cieling.

On the left of the bridge is is Fetch, wearing his modified opus jacket and holding a gun aimed at Hendricks. He wears a hat and flowing jacket as he holds a glowing orange orb in one hand, staring back at Fetch. end id.]

I made this pretty quickly but I’ve been thinking a lot about the sprite similarities specifically in aa4 (I would’ve made more connections but then it would be too big) so I slapped this together with all the sprites I could find (some may be more of a stretch than others) and it’s just made me think. If I shared my thoughts about every one of these this would be a really long post but the ones I think aren’t mentioned enough are the ones between kristoph, miles and phoenix. ive seen people talk about kristoph and apollo’s confident sprites and kristoph vs klavier’s body language and how they have very little in common except for a few things but some similarities i haven’t really seen talked about before are between these three. (miles was not meant to be on here cause I was keeping it to aa4 but I noticed nicks angry sprite looked like his so I had to add it and then it got me thinking, so i made this)

I think it’s interesting to see how phoenix is sort of a mix of both miles’ and kristoph’s influences on him. miles and kristophs similarities I’ll save for another post (I also have to involve dahlia for the parallels between phoenix’s “love interests) but yeah especially looking at their smiling sprites at the bottom you can see their similarities and differences. kristoph has a very “angelic” but fake looking smile that is always as fake as it seems, phoenix has a laughing face that is sometimes used sincerely but often is hiding something or laughing at something apollo doesn’t find funny, and miles has a shy smile that isn’t used very often but is pretty much always very sincere. i think it’s neat to see how phoenix’s sprites reflect the people closest to him, the good and the bad, and then how his sprites carry over to trucy and others. you’re free to make your own interpretations about all of these but I thought they were cool and thought I’d share. if anyone has more of these feel free to add on :)

there's something about how freely hendricks admits that fetch was a project for him. it's 6 am so obviously the only comparisons my brain can draw right now are to victor frankenstein w the creature and frank n furter w rocky. something about taking this man who was nothing, who was gutter trash, and seeing just how far hendricks could elevate him, just how much he could create from what little was there. something about asking didn't I teach you to be smarter than this. something about saying you're no better than when I found you. altruism and arrogance. high chancellor eliah hendricks and his pet human, fetch phillips, the monument of his own egotism. something about hendricks' twin poles: a wonder and zeal for life unparalleled, and a coldhearted pragmatism equally singular. half an encouraging sentence-- a tease, really, dangling bait-- and instantly fetch floods with hope and validation and a desperate need to please. something about I wondered if you'd been using me the entire time, if it had all been a ruse, but no, you're not good enough to have pulled that off. something about my boy. my boy. mine. always, you have been mine.

ye so this is from a few months ago and i posted it to twitter, but i thought i should put it here too ^_^

That withering stare. the fucking disdain
