Didn't draw the last one since I already drew 8 whole images <:D
Q: What would happen if Arto and River had to swap places?
A: Arto was someone brought back to life in a way he shouldn't have. Someone who never asked for this new body and immortality; so he never spoke much about the change. Just went on about his life like nothing happened. River, however, was a broke college student. They need the money. If the same happened to them, Interviews, experiments, broadcasts... They would agree to everything. ...And in the process getting the attention of every business that wants its hands on this new "miracle" lab rat. Whoops.
If Arto was the one that got stuck with Radixius, he would be petrified, but would soon fight against the divine spirit's violent wishes, stepping in forcefully when they try to harm mortals. (Until now he does similarly to what River did) Radixius, then of course, would respond with fury- But contrary to River, Arto would instead submit to Radixius' will, agreeing to obey it as long as it didn't hurt anyone. He would also not harbor any thought of revenge against it. Arto-Ani would act much more like a "traditional" forest guardian- quiet, staying out of sight, far away from civilization.
