Chip and the loree
Guys ohmygosh the lore has me on a chokehold and I have never typed a post on Tumblr before but like I need to say this because the concept of snail lore is the best thing ever.
During the fight, the way chip stands in the back, watching, despair and shock on his face. Too shocked to move, to react even. Glued to his spot. The look of betrayal.
and then after bad left the fight. Chip was also left behind. Alone. Surrounded by the people who just tried to kill his dad (or just guardian) but was bad even his dad? What did they mean when they said he killed Lukey? Chip thought they were the good guys. They only killed the bad guys. They would never hurt friends, that went against the code. Chips’ whole life had been flipped upside down and the only people he had near him were the people who just tried to ambush Bad. But they were his friends still, right? Water would never hurt him, and Pangi, well Pangi was the first person to join green.
As Chip stands there, frozen to the ground he looks over at the group, hugging Pangi, comforting him. Chip makes eye contact with Pangi, wanting to join the comforting group hug. He didn’t know where to go. Go back to Bad, who betrayed him, or at least, Chip didn’t understand Bad’s motives yet. Or stay with them. As he stares at the group hugging, Pangi noticed Chip was still there. Standing. Staring. ‘Insert the moment where Foolish was a comedic relief and he joined the hug’
Pangi: you have 5 seconds to run
and just as if Pangi just noticed Chip’s presence,
Pangi: You too Chip.
chip, who was just standing there in a frozen stupor, seemed to snap out of his trance. He blinked and turned away, stumbling towards the lake, his world upside down and he didn’t know who to turn too. So he went back. To the only person he knew would be there.
but chip DIDNT understand. He didn’t understand why any of this was happening and he wanted answers and he was scared. The one person he thought he could always trust, he couldn’t.
a quick pause. Do you see what im getting at here? Chip’s lore. He is like a child caught between morals. It’s like that one trope where it’s the child of a serial killer or a wanted assassin and all they have grown up with is the kindest mom or dad and then they have people saying that their parent was the cause of someone’s death. At that point, who do you trust? And then Bad reassures Chip and gives him a crystal apple to hold onto, to remember him by and to give to Bad when he comes back.
THE ART POTENTIAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL. Chip is just a scared lil snail and the snail lore is awesome. Imagine a story or like a comic or a fic from chip’s pov?? Cinema
