Black Swordsman Guts + Golden Age Griffith 

I was talking on the server about how I’d love to read a fic where GA Griffith somehow switches places with NeoGriffith, and Guts only realizes who he’s about to stab when he gets close enough to see his eyes. Anyway, decided to draw it ✨

Give me a character and I will answer: Griffith

I just remembered that this was in my drafts it’s so old now sorry @bscully 😭😭😭

I’mma still post it tho

————————————-

Lol you have NO idea what you’ve just unleashed

Why I like them

Ngl, I have a fondness for ambitious and cold characters who are willing to achieve their goals by any means necessary…but Griffith stands out in that he serves as an absolutely BRUTAL deconstruction of this trope/archetype, even before the Eclipse. 

Why I don’t

It’s pretty obvious: he r——d Casca into insanity in front of Guts and tainted their child. And bear in mind, unlike sacrificing the Band of the Hawk, this action did nothing to get him closer to his kingdom. It was just an atrocity he committed out of spite and sheer evil. Tbh, that sort of destroyed my ability to see him in a positive light. There are moments where I flat out can’t even LOOK at pictures of him without wanting to cuss him out lol

Favorite episode (scene if movie)

The scene when he’s bathing in the lake after what happened with Gennon. I think it’s a good example of his duality

Favorite season/movie

The Golden Age in the manga (until volume 13. I’m never getting over that.)

Favorite line

During this exchange with Gennon, it’s pretty obvious that he doesn’t completely mean what he says. He says he feels nothing towards Gennon, but we as the audience know how his experience with Gennon truly affected him. And I think that highlights a very important aspect of his character: what he says is how he would LIKE to feel but it doesn‘t reflect how he TRULY feels. Ideally, Griffith would like for his emotions and humanity to not have an influence on him as he tries to gain his kingdom. But in the end, he was an emotional person, whether he liked it or not. This desire to completely bury his self-doubt, guilt, trauma, and emotional attachment towards his men (Guts specifically) is part of what led him to becoming Femto.

Favorite outfit

Ngl, the outfit he wears when Guts leaves is pretty nice. Asshole that he is, he looks nice in blue :p

OTP

Griffith/Rickert’s palm

Brotp

It USED to be Guts but then he went and fucked everything up 🤦🏾‍♀️

Head Canon

He’s a polyglot. He‘s got a knack for languages.

Unpopular opinion

I don’t know if this counts but…………..Casca’s prettier than him :p

A wish

I hope that what he did to Casca during the Eclipse comes back to bite him in the ass. I think the Moonlight Child might end up being the key to his downfall.

An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen

If Guts and Casca ever do end up killing Griffith, I hope they don’t lose their son in the process.

5 words to best describe them

Complex, ambitious, possessive, charismatic, hypocritical 

My nickname for them

Everybody’s Favorite Asshole

Griffith's Motives

So this isn't going to be a long post, but...

I'm wondering if this "Abduct Casca" plan was a spur of the moment thing or if Griffith was planning this all along. I would like to think that it's the latter, since it's fucking Griffith, but even though we've grown to know him as this master strategist we also know that he is not immune to "moments of irrationality" a.k.a. stupid/mean emotional decision making (whether it's sleeping with the princess out of wedlock and getting caught or R-wording your friend's lover just to be vile and spiteful) and that he can't still spin things in his favor (i.e. no Griffith wasn't planning that R-word scene in some master scheme like how some would like to apologize away BUT he definitely took advantage of the aftermath b/c causality).

Of course if that's not the case, I just wonder at just what moment Griffith decided, "Ya I need to kidnap her." I guess we could potentially get a better perspective if we get into Griffith's perspective (which we don't really get a lot of post-reincarnation) and how he and the child became one body, but not necessarily one soul/mind.

Back during the post-Conviction Arc, at the confrontation on the Hill of Swords, it's evident that Griffith is aware that baby whose body he stole in order to reincarnate into the world is still aware itself. BUT, now that I think about it, was Griffith even aware that the body belonged to Guts and Casca's child? Was it something that he also had to piece together over time? Like, he's not going to say this in front of people (because it's a sign of weakness), but he most definitely was experiencing lapses in memory and black outs during the full moon. Maybe at the beginning he had no awareness or control over these transformations but somehow he figured stuff out.

I guess maybe it was in chapter 358, right after he and Charlotte shared some "tea time" together and she fell asleep. He was anticipating the transformation and that was the last time we saw him in Falconia before the arrival of Moonlight Boy on Elfhelm. If he was seeing into Moonlight Boys mind bit by bit over the duration of these last few arcs, he definitely might have been piecing together Guts and Casca's travel path, their activities, and more importantly, their relationship to the boy and the boy's own feelings toward them (which would surmount to the conclusion of the boy - whom he stole the original body of - being Guts and Casca's child). Of course I'm remembering the world tree has a lot to do with cosmology of the Berserk-verse, though I'm not sure how much either Griffith or Moonlight Boy know about its function as a sort of ethereal super-highway (if the Moonlight Boy was operating independently from Griffith up until at least very recently, how was he compelled to use the world tree to find Guts and Casca wherever they were in the world?).

Okay I said this wasn't going to be long so I'll stop there, BUT just to add I recall there were some fanfics from waaaaaay back that I really enjoyed that utilized the theory that Griffith is not in control - or at least not in complete control - of the Moonboy's thoughts and actions.
