Hey hey! Silly drawing request, but how about Elevator Thing? I have this whole elaborate headcanon where he was a normal guy like Sam but ended up never becoming the hero. Abandoned in the elevator after seeing the visitor show up in the news, awake mere minutes earlier than Sam and thus destined to be cursed. Alone, abandoned, but never promised that friendship it so desired. Heck I RP the guy in the RP server I’m in
Anyway I love my boy Elevator Thing hugging it and giving it a nice blanket, letting it live
Damn, I mean, it works, too, its design even has some parallels to Perfect Ritual Sam (fractal tendrils).
This is one of those enemies where I wish there was more context than "oh, there's something in here, you can't use the elevator until you kill it." Like I'd almost consider it plot-significant (since it's gating what's effectively fast-travel) but it's just... there.
