I NEED to know so much more about the illagers. does polly know vinny's dead? does he know how he died? what happened to johnny? what happened to him after the mansion raid? what happened to polly after the mansion raid? your au is driving me fully insane TELL ME MORE
(if polly dies, if johnny kills him we will be meeting at the denny's parking lot)
I shall now take this ask as an opportunity to blab about Steve's Mansion raid. Polly witnesses Vinny's death, and the death of pretty much everyone in that Mansion. It all came down to them, Johnny and their leader, Walda.
And because it's fucking COOL, it's on the rooftop. Thunderstorm. The mansion is on fire, this is the last stand. Almost everyone is dead and there are other Mansions but this was POLLY's tribe damnit ROME IS BURNING.
Steve is up top, injured, gotten the best off after Walda actually used the Totems properly (with fellow illagers as sacrifices), just one fang bite and they'll be gone again. Polly, the little sharpshooter they are, takes aim at Steve to help out.
They kill Steve. Then what? They'll just return stronger.
They die to Steve, lay their life for the empire like how the Evokers taught them to. And then what? Vinny died believing this, and it was without fanfare or meaning.
Polly has been at the mercy of not just Steve but a Villager of all people, and both let them live. What are they going to do with this life?
Steve takes the opportunity and kills the Evoker, and Polly flees by leaping off the roof into the water below, leaving Johnny behind as their witness.
Seeing everything just went from bad to worse, Johnny flees too to live to fight another day. He has to reunite with his own first. Polly... is not going to do that.
And god, my imaginary fuckin animatic with all this.. oohh... OOOHHHHHFFUUUCKKK 1:44 WHERE POLLY SWITCHES HER AIM OUUUUGHHHH- anyways. did this answer all of it? ... eh good enough.
