“lucio had an incredibly rough childhood with parents who were neglectful of his emotional well-being which contributed to him becoming an emotionally immature, less-empathetic adult” and “lucio made his own bad decisions, is completely responsible for his past mistakes and him having a bad childhood doesn’t excuse his faults” are statements that can and do coexist.
Ok listen, I find this thing funny so I will actually show this storyboard, even if I cut the shot at the beginning because it had a few issues. such as: - Ragatha keeps talking even with a goddamn hand on her face shoving her aside (didn't think this through and realized too late) - The laughing poses didn't convince me enough. - There's two very similar shots of Caine close to the camera, with two very different mood, that really don't fit together At the end I felt like this part was still in the Ragatha section, and since Kinger was supposed to be the part I would focus on I didn't bother to fix it :']
I listed the issues even if I shouldn't do that lmao But at least you know why I cut it off, after all this is the nature of the storyboard step, lots of things get discarded and IT FINEE Original post with all the right credits and Context -> HERE I DIDN'T CREATE THE SONG The original song is from St4ticFilms and you can find it HERE (I can't reblog adding a video for some reason)
Anyways :3333
I saw @pinkieriver 's post about a tiny little robot Caine being a little menace in Pomni's house and I was so inspired by it...... And I gave it a small story-
ME. I AM READING YOUR KINGER THEORY. WORD BY WORD. DUMP IT ALL ON ME NOW. ON MY DESK. BY TOMORROW. IN FULL DETAIL.
(oh and heehee may i get a silly kinger doodle as well, thank you, you look so dashing today)
OK, more about this theory, you can read the original post HERE
But I will explain it more in depth now Episode 3 time wooo In my theory I think Caine used Kinger's memories to write the script of the Hunter's recordings. The recordings are actually revealing Kinger, Queenie, Caine and Abel backstories In this case: the Hunter represents Kinger, Queenie is the Hunter's wife, and the two parts of the Angel (Body and Head) are supposed to be Caine and Able.
Kinger enters the game/is already stuck in there, realizes what he has created and decides to terminate the two AIs. In the recordings the Hunter is obsessed by hunting down the creature, his obsession brings him to accidentally kill his wife. Maybe Queenie didn't abstract like the others, but got accidentally caught by Kinger's attempt and got corrupted…?
Kinger manages to terminate Abel, but can't do the same with Caine. A fraction of Abel code survived tho, and it is still lingering around in the depths of the Digital circus, still cursing it. Reason I thought about this, is the way Pomni gets possessed by the souls in the hell section, and IMMEDIATELY taunts Kinger asking him "How's your wife" (There's also another "possession" moment, this time happening to Gangle when Ragatha is high on stupid sauce, the two faces are quite close)
The reason I thought about this theory in the first place, is the way the hunter describes the creature, as "not quite a man, not quite an animal, something unholy". Since in some of the official merch Caine gets depicted as an angel. What I think is, Kinger hasn't lost his memory by staying in the Digital circus for a prolonged period of time but got wiped out/stolen by either Caine or Able's attack, the memories of the abstracted players can be used to train the AI's. In this case to write a whole adventure script.
These two are is not my own theories, I saw them somewhere on the internet, but I feel like they can still fit very well: (From two different YT videos tho)
my take -> ALSO LET'S BE HONEST, Character design wise: who the hell thought teeth (one of the most dangerous/aggressive body part) with eyes in his throat, could feel reassuring and welcoming. They also gave him a Red and Black color palette come on. Saying this, I don't think Caine is evil, he only had to be PERCEIVED as an antagonist/more shady figure. I- feel like I forgot to explain something... and I probably did... So if you still want me to go even further in depth, I will be really happy to share opinions with the Ask box Now have this silly Kinger GIF I animated in like 20 minutes lmao
