YAAAYYY, finally, someone caught on! Not gonna confirm whether the choices actually have points or if I’m just messing with you (enjoy spiraling over that XD), but…
The weapons actually follow the order of the pixies in the painting CG, so: Yulen > Helios > Merka > Kai > Adonis > Rosario. I’ll leave it up to you to decipher what each one means in correlation~
Im gonna go with the « a chekhov’s gun» option. Or an Easter egg that tells us something about the pixies personality
A taser for Helios. A weapon that jolts the victims and paralyze them. Such a fitting weapon for Helios. Foreshadowing of his future treatment of us probably
A camouflage knife. Sneaky, hidden, got camouflage in its name. Works for the brat green pixie
A gun, boom, dead. Everything about Kai is about death. No matter one of the most deadly weapon ever is associated to a guy like him. « A single pull of a trigger » as the script says
A spiked whip. I peeped the BDSM elements tw in Adonis’ list OFC a spiked whip would be associated with him. That aside, the whip can be deadly but across history it was mostly used as punishment and torture without killing, unlike idk a sword or a gun. Since it’s used as punishment, it’s tied with humiliation to. Humiliation of the body and the soul
Tactical baton : uhh uhhhhh phallic symbol ? More seriously, I think a tactical baton, like a whip, is mostly used for punishment, and since it’s wildly used by policemen and soldiers, to make victims comply. It’s certainly less deadly than a whip and could be used as defense, as Sev thought of doing. So the difference between the whip and the technical baton is punish vs make comply
Weaponry aside. I always wondered what’s Merka’s deal with Rosario. What kind of spell did Rosario cast on him to make him so, uhm, complying. I mean, as soon as Rosario gets a little stern with Merka he gets immediately silent. WHATS GOING ON
Oh my wow, it’s like you’re inside the characters’ heads with how spot-on your analysis is XDD I’m honestly blown away! I’m trying to hold back from saying too much so I don’t spoil anything, but I have to answer the last part.
Just imagine it, what does Rosario have that Merka doesn’t? Something that could make the Hero of Envy rely on someone else. It’s actually something Sev picks up on during their conversation too~~
Who knows, maybe I have telepathic access to what’s going to happen next …
And oh ig Rosario tolerates him because he stitches up his outfits, and it’s fun to tease him.
Or maybe I’m saying bullshit and it’s linked to ehsas
