Description There we are, bonus number 5 in all its glory. Had to work into the night to polish this one off since some asshole (me) promised it'd be done... Yesterday.

Shit.

Frequenting streams like I do is really starting to cut into my arting time :/. Well it's only slightly late, so whatevs. I'll post it in the Nuzlocke forums as soon as they stop being stupid (lot of that going around lately, I'm looking at you Bulbapedia >.>)

This page is mostly an extention of a scene from chapter 17, there seems to be some confusion about what exactly's going on at the end, but this should clarify that.

Nah, not on purpose anyway. Steven's team are all named after Shakespearean characters, but I'm only familiar with Romeo & Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Much ado about nothing (partially), Othello, Julius Ceasar, and Hamlet by way of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern (Excellent book) and the "Poor Yorick" speech. I've been meaning to get into Macbeth and Hamlet, but haven't so far. :/

Which part did you think was a reference?

The Last part where T says "I wash my hands of this whole horrid business"- that is so like

Wait, spoilers? Should I say?

Macbeth's been out long enough that it's past the spoiler phase

I said that because you gave the impression of not being familiar with Macbeth- I'd rather look like an idiot covering up something unnecessary than spoil it for someone.

That was...horrible...but honestly I feel bad for T. He may have done it...so gruesomely murdered Zato...but I have the feeling that he'll regret it. He'll feel guilt. Someday he's going to have to face his beliefs and the reality of what he's done...and if they're really worth it...and they won't be. And then what will he have, but blood on his claws?

April I have no pity for. Maybe a Skarmory will eat her.

ZAZL In reply to DragonwolfRooke [2012-07-10 19:47:19 +0000 UTC]

T's a complex character.

He's got a lot of conflicting ideas and moral qualms. From T's point of view he may have saved the whole team from a gruesome death by sacrificing Zato, not to mention that April would have killed Zato if T hadn't, but in a much slower and less pleasant way.

He's very much modeled after a crusader, perhaps a Knight Templar. He has to reconcile his faith with his actions, with his morals.

Despite what he did to Zato, I still think I like him, mostly because of how well-developed his character is. I just feel sorry for him.

Oh, gross! T, you're lucky you didn't get sick from eating all that toxin stored up in Zato's tail. And I thought you could've been above all that, you twisted, metal gremlin.
I'm still interested in his character though.

Still interested? Well that's good, he's a pretty prominant part of the story, even if most readers hate his guts at this point.
His breloom-filled guts

Yes, still totally gross.
It may sound strange, but I like the characters that get under my skin. They just add so much to the overall story.

If you like that kind of thing, I should expand on April some more. You'll REALLY like her.

T, you just PLUMMETTED on my favorite characters list in this Nuzlocke. I hope someone rips you a new one, you metal-headed, fanatical BACKSTABBER.

Even WORSE. I mean, it'd be bad enough that he killed Zato... But EATING him?!? That's an all new low. >_<
