Inktober 52 2021 - Week 14 - ‘Shield’

After the last week's picture of Bonzo (https://i-am-worm.tumblr.com/post/647178995460341760/inktober-52-2021-week-13-brave-the-brave ) I felt like drawing him again. :>

You don’t have to think. Just tell the truth.

How easy it would be to succumb to Mr Richardson's seductive suggestion, but of course Drake has been taught how to resist: by answering the interrogator's questions with complete honesty. According to the game they have both agreed to play, Drake's answers are the exact textbook responses a trained agent would be expected to give, while the interrogator is following his own well-rehearsed protocol. The point of divergence, and the basis for Drake's underlying advantage, however, is the assumption, on Richardson's part, that they are both playing the same game.

 They begin the simulated interrogation by assuming their respective roles of enemy interrogator and captured operative. The set-up seems predictable enough, but from the get-go the intended victim has the upper hand simply by virtue of his triple agent status. Richardson's suspicions re "Mr Fuller's" simulated claim of innocence soon cause the boundary to become blurred between simulation and supposed reality, as Richardson's standard questions continue to yield only standard answers, even under extreme duress. Paradoxically, and to Richardson's chagrin, it is the narrow remit of his inquiry, and the focus on party membership, which allows Drake to answer truthfully, as Drake, and in character: as "Mr Fuller," and as the captured agent in their simulated game.

 Seeing how Drake's true identity is protected by layers upon layers of artful deception, I can only speculate as to how I would fare, underneath that pile of protective bubble wrap I've amassed instead, were I ever to be questioned about my own true motives: my insane passion for high-definition digital media, the beauty of 35mm analog film, and the perfect union of the two in a carefully scanned, cleaned, and restored 2, 4, or 6K image that conveys a keen sense of, yes, intimacy no audience before us - and certainly no interrogator - has ever been invited to share. How easy it would be. To succumb.

Skyrim. It's so old and buggy, but it's still kicking despite that. A lot of the issues can be fixed with mods, and I think that it being so moddable makes for great practice for any future game-dev-would-be.
