Sir Hans vs Sir Pans: if Henry baked breads.

He can say this in response to the ex-scribe Lumir to convince him to tell you more about the murders. This is actually the highest difficulty skill check there, but it's the one I chose in both my playthroughs cause it feels so very Henry to me. Lumir asks him why Henry thinks he'd be more successful than him in finding the killer, and to me, the above is the most honest option.

The other options are like "because I can use my brain" or "because justice must be served" or something like that, but the truth is that Henry has a better chances because of the trait Hans and Istvan both bring up liking about Henry:

He is stubborn and he never gives up.

And I just love hearing Henry acknowledge that his stubbornness kept him going. It got him up and moving as his whole life burned behind him. It got him to spur his horse onwards as he bled and arrows shot past him on the way to Talmberg. This innate stubbornness and inability to give up, this tendency to keep going is what allowed him to keep his hope even when he had nothing and tell Theresa "there's always hope". It got him back on his feet too many times to count.

Henry's scholarship is new, his skills with a sword are new, ridign a horse, trainign a dog, all new — these are all stuff he had to learn to adapt, stuff that allowed him to live and prosper. And it's all because of his stubbornness.

stubbornness that was always there and part of him and allowed him to push himself and do everything he does and learn all he's learned. Henry is 100% right. If he wasn't the stubborn man that he is, he wouldn't have been where he is with the scholarship skill you can chose as a reply here. So, this, despite being the most difficult check here (not that difficult, it was just a medium difficulty but the other 2 where easy) is the most painfully Henry one.

Saw @grimnovas tags about different dialogue so I went back to check my screenshots and yea now I'm wondering what leads to the different dialogue. I found a video of the dialogue I got and Hans has an even tone the whole time, he doesn't get super boisterous at the start, and then all quiet and flustered when he talks about the spurs. I'm dying, this is so cute of Hans, getting shy about giving such an extreme gift.

ever since finishing the game I've been pondering my headcanon/au for how erik's post canon situation would look like if he lived on and I finally sat down to sketch out some concepts for it... still got thoughts forming on it but in short he does not get better! also just an excuse to draw him in all black + his red. my favourite edgelord <3

don't look too closely at the historical accuracy of these I was chasing cool factor for now... will be putting my reasearch glasses on now
