I like the idea of Big as a sacrifice—willing or not. Although animals given in sacrifice don't have a choice, Big chooses to put himself in the way of a bullet meant for Porsche. It is some of the only agency he has.

In the story, he attempts to change his circumstances, to stop events from unfolding in the way they do, but he has so little power that he is unable to stop the inevitable. He must follow the orders given to him by the Theerapanyakul family (and even Tawan, when Kinn insists) even if he disagrees with them. He attempts to warn them that Tawan is not trustworthy, but is disregarded. The way Big struggles to stop the incoming tragedy—and is unable to—is haunting, to me. I don't think he is doomed by the narrative in the traditional sense, but I do think the story insists on blood, on a death that has some emotional impact (whether that is lasting for the characters in-universe, or the dead ever get mentioned again… well, don't worry about it). Someone has to die, and because Porsche cannot die, someone else who loves Kinn must die in his stead. Big makes that choice, substitutes himself for Porsche, and becomes the sacrifice.

Because of this choice, Kinn will get to live on with Porsche, even if he's still trapped into a role he does not enjoy but feels obligated to play. Vegas will nearly die trying (and failing) to become the person his father wants, to earn respect and love that he will never get from him. And Big will die for Kinn, who will never see him or care about him the way Big wants him to.

The question here, and at the end of the story is, 'Was it worth it?'

POV a cute gerudo offers you a durian

(redraw of that one hulk taco meme [Image ID: A two panel comic, with a top and bottom. The top panel has a confused young Ganon with long hair in a half ponytail wearing a cloak and voe armor, holding a durian andstanding tall over a tiny Link, who is attempting to sit up from a wooden bench and is surprised at his approach. Link is wearing protective leather armor over his tunic and large boots, and appears to be an older version, with grass and pebbles at their feet. The bottom panel shows a framed close-up of young Ganon attempting a friendly yet awkward tusked smile, with further detail on his cloak, pauldrons, armor, jewelry and collar necklace, as well as his circlet crown. His eyes are winged with eyeliner, his eyebrows bushy, his hair long and sleek with flyaways, as Ganon offers the durian to Link from his giant hand, a pinky politely extended}

I had the delightful experience of a coworker who has no connection to ttrpgs seeing me showing dice to someone and instantly reaching toward them, eyes wide, going, “I just want to eat them. Why can’t I?” 🥺

In case you ever wondered if the Forbidden Candy experience is universal.

[alphynix]

Araeoscelis gracilis was a superficially lizard-like animal that lived during the mid-Permian, around 275 million years ago, in what is now Texas, USA. About 60cm long (~2'), it had a slender body, proportionally long legs, and a solidly-built skull with strong teeth, suggesting that it was a fast runner that specialized in cracking open the carapaces of thick-shelled prey.

It was one of the last known members of a lineage known as araeoscelidians, which are usually considered to be very early members of the diapsid reptiles – but a recent study has proposed they might have even more ancient roots than that, possibly being a branch of stem-amniotes instead.
