Crosshair Misconceptions!

Seeing as we seem to be getting some new Crosshair fans in the fandom, let's quickly run through some of the things people get wrong about his character!

1. He's heartless and evil.

Nope! An asshole? Definitely! Heartless? Absolutely not. He says a lot of things to purposefully piss people off ("besides... he's just another reg") but he doesn't truly mean half the shit he says. You can dislike him because he's a prick, but he's not straight up heartless or evil.

For example! 👇

2. He enjoys/enjoyed working for the Empire!

Once again, nope! Crosshair didn't enjoy what he did for the Empire. He was traumatised and didn't feel like he had a choice. "We do what needs to be done." It's about following orders. Crosshair can't imagine a life outside of being a solider and sometimes being a solider means putting the mission before anything else. Crosshair did what he was told to do, and yes, a criticism can be made for what those actions entailed, but to say he enjoyed them is incorrect.

3. His change of character in Ep 12 The Outpost was sudden and unpredictable.

We've been predicting that this would happen since season 1! Sure, we didn't necessarily know how or when it was going to happen, but we knew it was coming. It wasn't just because we wanted it, there was evidence there. This links back to the "evil and heartless" thing. Crosshair's moments of emotion are what let us know that there's a part of him in there that isn't happy with his choices and those are little bits that feed into his change.

I've said before that a redemption/recovery arc for Crosshair couldn't happen without Crosshair accepting who he is and the choices he's made, as well as him acknowledging the fact that while not everything was his fault, he still needs to work on himself. I also said that that realisation would most likely happen when he hit rock bottom. Which happens in this episode.

It wasn't a sudden change. This change was a long time coming and Crosshair finally snapped.

°•°•°•°

These are the main three misconceptions that I see surrounding Crosshair that I wanted to clear up. I'm very happy to see people appreciating this character more but there're still a lot of misunderstandings surrounding him that I hope will dissipate over time.

Saying that, I also don't want to say that you're a bad person if you don't like Crosshair. There are plenty of reasons to dislike him, but dislike him for the right reasons!

And there will always be subjectivity to what he needs to do to be "redeemed". The vast majority of Crosshair fans are fully open to acknowledging that his actions were wrong, we're not trying to claim he's completely blameless, but the level of things he needs to do to be considered "redeemed" is going to be different for each person. And for some people, he just can't be; for them, the things that he's done can never be forgiven and he can never be redeemed. And that's okay! This element of his character will always be subjective. But like I said, if you're gonna dislike Crosshair, dislike him for the right reasons. :)

Gonna point everyone to this article again because it's the best analysis of Crosshair that I've seen. 👉 Article.

Also gonna tag resident Crosshair stan and expert @eriexplosion in case they want to add anything that was missed and that they deem important!

sorry but this design is so fucking ugly

Hadn't gotten to experiment with Clip Studio's timelapse feature before! Timelapse is below the cut 🐙✨

(Definitely proud of how the shading on this one turned out)

Kon WILL have a fat ass. That’s just the prophecy.

The way you draw Micolash looks like an absolute corpse of a wet skinny gremlin that got ran over by a bus at least two times and then was left in the rain for three days while being mawed by a stray dog but not eaten since he hardly had any meat anyway (aka he looks perfect with his vibe flawlessly captured)

THIS ASK. This is the one. I’m sobbing respectfully, thank you so much! You’re very kind, I’m so so happy you think he looks disheveled and soggy (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎) the description of him is killing me, it’s also very flattering! I’m glad I can capture his scruffy demeanor, that’s always something I hope to achieve!

It’s a small hc of mine that Micolash was very frail in youth and got sick really often(also contributing to why he’s not great at socializing and is somewhat awkward, being bedridden all the time as a kid instead of interacting with others) which is why he looks so ill in my Byrgenwerth era art. I know it probably fits better to draw him healthier/““nicer”” for that time, but I personally really enjoy keeping his distinct scruffiness in my drawings! It’s such a relief and a huge honor to hear I portray his essence well, even when my style is pretty far from the semi/hyper-realistic style of Bloodborne. Thank you again! I hold this ask close to my heart ♪( ´▽｀)

Norel vs WL. who shall win

Mentally ill rat vs God

I love Norel but there's no way that pathetic little wet tissue is winning this one, he's gonna fold like origami papper. The only reason he's as dangerous as he is is because he's an influential political figure with the backing of an entire kingdom, its army and personal criminal ties. Only reason he's able to overpower gods in this story (well, canonically only one fledgling god, but there are different flavours of AU I made for fun) is by setting traps and by literally throwing an entire army against them, the only reason he still lives and keeps getting away with this shit is because he's not in the main line of fire when something inevitably goes wrong, it's the people he has working for him that are ripped to shreds and not him. The two only AUs where he does manage to capture her was done through magical traps and use of void to significantly weaken her to the brink of death.

1 on 1 though? That cunt's folding like a lawn chair. The second he's in a room with any of the vessels (that can fight and aren't Whisper) he's dead dead.

Nothing in my life has ever tasted as good as how I imagine cartoon meat that looks like this tastes

Every now and then I’m like “oh I haven’t seen this person on my dash in awhile, must not be active anymore :/ “ but then I go and they’ve been active within hours! They just never show up on my dashboard even though I’m definitely following them, why does this happen and is there any fix for it

Okay, tell me what you think of this:

lanky eclipse watched chubby bloodmoon eat and then bloodmoon shoves a piece of cake or something in eclipse's mouth and they both share.

Absolutely. Lankyclipse gets given amazing Lunar-made food as well and Blood Moon doesn’t hesitate to share immediately.
