Heavy burden

Please blindfold the faint of heart, the rest of you, sorry))

Well, here's the first drawing in year 25! I actually went a little crazy while I was finishing this art, and I still feel like it's not three-dimensional enough, but the future will show whether I fix it or not, so for now you have a chance to gaze into his eyes and remember this moment for the rest of your life

...

Damn.

Wait.

WAIT A SECOND.

So, it turns out that there's a possibility that Thriffith WAS at the evil party for a while, too, and it's entirely possible that he made a lot of new acquaintances there. And when Goodsword found out about it, they could have had a scandal even on that basis.

Fucking hell, another piano from the bushes, I don't know. Why I'm only thinking about this now????

1) The musical themes of Thriffith and El Moco are identical to each other. But it's important to keep in mind that the rhythm in the music probably applies more to Scimitar, since it is his theme that features heavy drum beats and a sound reminiscent of the clanging or clanking of steel. After all, they both share the same weapons, with which they both had no problem (logically).

Certainly El Moco has his own theme, and we've heard it throughout the seasons (it features an electric guitar, and a combination of Mexican and wild west motifs), but as for Thriffith it's… it's weird enough. Weird in the sense that it's often intertwined with the Scimitar theme, which makes it hard to know which sound relates to which. If you leave out the evil sword theme (hello synonyms), Thriffith's theme sounds a little ominous, tense, and it's basically uncomfortable in itself. When he appears you can hear echoes of drums, a battle cry, and you can also hear brass instruments well, and the music itself is similar to those variations of villainous themes when the hero wanders into the lair of the enemy, or the enemy on the contrary surrounds the hero with minions (for example, you can listen to the soundtracks to the movie "Ultraviolet", as they just use something similar (especially "Chapel fight", "700 men" and "Unarmed")). During the story of Goodsword, about how he and Thriffith discovered the old temple of Scimitar, you can hear multivoiced choral singing in the background. It is also present in the background during the fight with the cats. When he repented and told what was really going on, the music was quite gentle and quieter. In general, the music in his presence depends on the situation, his interlocutor, and the place in which he is present. The rest of the time he has no definite theme. It's silence (there was also an isolated case when music denoted emotion, and specifically aggression and resentment, and this also contained the echoes of the trumpet). In other words, Thriffith's theme has the sound of wind instruments or polyphonic choral singing, and it can be said that his musical theme combines several themes, as it is ambiguous and influenced by circumstances.

Anyway, I already told you that El Moco and Thriffith have one weapon in common.

2) Thriffith and El Moco appear in the same series, only in the same season.

It’s a pretty amazing phenomenon, bc, look, Thriffith is just as much a "villain of one series" as most other villain characters and its appearance in three seasons is justified as follows: in the first season - he’s the villain of the day; in the second season - he is included in the story, which can be considered a "record of the victories" of Puss in Boots (all the villains in it united in one mince, if I may say so); and the third season - he was supposed to be a warrior in the team of Puss, but, lmao, he is not really going to participate in all this, he’s tired of everything, just leave him alone, he’s been through an abuse and he needs a break, not all of this :D

El Moco, unlike Thriffith, appears in all seasons (not even because of his cameo Danny Trejo), and is a key figure as he is primarily the Bandit King and has a very complex story arc. However, the fact that he appears ONCE in the entire third season is strange, as he is usually given 2-4 episodes. When he appears only once during the whole season, it is something like a rare phenomenon (at least it happened in seasons 1, 3 and 5), something that is not typical for his figure.

However, this is a very interesting detail.

3) Thriffit is "creepy". (who in this series is not creepy? : DD)

Okay, okay, let’s get serious. Thriffith is called weird for the third time. Or rather, the Duchess confirms that he is, to put it mildly, "out of his mind", or rather, she said that he is "a creepy weirdo". Judging by what the Duchess learned from thieves ("villainy party" at which all villains must hang, including thieves), this confirms the fact that: thieves love to gossip and also contribute to spreading rumors, and besides, they discuss everything within their evil-thieving circle.

The fact that Thriffith is "creepy" and "weird" is his trait. It is known, perhaps he always was. As early as season one, he said that Goodsword selects those who have "no killer instinct". Which means that Thriffith himself has a killer instinct, and he deliberately left Goodsword on his own. This man can actually slaughter anyone, and it’s just been a stretch. He’ll either apologize for committing the murder or not, and it all depends on his personal relationship to his opponent. So he may have chosen to kill for himself because it’s more interesting to live like this (perhaps) because murderers and villains have more authority in society than heroes who risk their position every day.

(I'll write the translation to make it easier for you to read /Yes, I forgot to do the English version, but okay/)

T: Have you ever heard of a thing like "Porridge from an ax"? S: /wha-/ S: First time I hear…

T: It's such crap when you trick people into gypsy tricks to share food with you. S: Ah… Clearly, unusually… T: Aha T: In general I did not want to say about this. S: What about then?

T: I just thought, what if…

T: I will make SWORDS SOUP

T: Well, in sense, not the one that is from the sword-fish, and which is purely from the swords

S: I understood you. S: In general, it sounds delusional, but this is genius delirium, so I have no doubt that you will give out another masterpiece of cooking.

T: Great. T: It remains to understand who will be the first to spend… One or both?… T: If I boil broth from Scimitar, then it will surely be sharp; and if from Goodsword, which, most likely, I will get either boiling water or chicken broth…

S: Gosh, Thriffith, don't make it up. S: You will get an ordinary soup, because we will have hot broth and room temperature vegetables. T: And still…

T: CaReFuL...

/I don't regret what I did, honestly/

Fix: Thriffith walks away from the Goodsword.

Actually, he was right to leave. Toxic types like that should be sent away.

" - I made him what he is! He's too selfish to admit that I did all the work! And all the glory belongs to me!"
