#yes i like to stare at him

[pessimisticshapewithablog]

Staring at this photo of the bishop's heights by @faery-the-diamond got me thinking:

Why is Narinder so much bigger than the other Bishops? When standing upright he is significantly taller and larger than all the bishops and witnesses. Why is that?

I have a few theories.

1.

Narinder was always this large as a god. The animals the bishops are based on, give or take kallamar (giant squids), are significantly smaller than the animal Narinder is designed after, a cat.

I also noticed that compared to the bishop statues, Narinder's trophy statue is also larger. So maybe he was just a big kitty....

11.

The size of a god is based on how much power and worship they have accumulated. The bishops of the old faith may not be as widely worshipped as we thought. Narinder may have been more worshipped than the other bishops, even before he left the old faith.

Or

They are widely worshipped and that's why Narinder leaving the Old Faith and gaining significantly more worship than them caused Shamura to fear his growing power. Maybe he was the same size as them but grew exponentially after starting his own religion.

Interestingly TOWW is almost always crouching when we see him. He can and does stand straighter in animations of him trying to break out of his chains

But he immediately drops down into a crouch afterwards.

This little animation led me to another theory:

111.

Narinder was close to the same height of the other bishops and remained that size until after he was imprisoned. Given that he was able to get others to build and maintain cults in his name, he would have gained power and grown in size. But his chains stayed the same so he might be crouching to alleviate the discomfort of too tight chains.

[ID: Digital Art in color of Trigun Maximum, characters included are Wolfwood, Elendira, and Legato in a casual meeting situation. The piece consists of orangey yellow lighting and purple shadows. Wolfwood sits on the left side, facing Elendira who’s on the right. He’s seated on a plain wooden chair with one knee up and he’s holding the strap to his Punisher in his left hand while his right sits against his thigh, He has an irritated expression as he speaks to Elendira. Elendira is sitting in a fancier seat, her right arm rests against Wolfwood’s propped up knee, her left hand holds her suitcase. She’s sitting cross legged with an amused expression. Legato can be seen in the back at the center of the image in his mobile body case, one of his eyes shown to be glaring at Wolfwood. End ID]

[ID: Sketch, uncolored comic. Elendira says to Wolfwood, “I’m not telling you to dedicate yourself to him, but just accept the situation at hand. We could get along better if we were on the same page.” Wolfwood responds, “Don’t peg me me for an optimist. I’m not dumb. But, I’m also not going to just live in resignation. Plus, I don’t have any interest in getting along with ya.” Elendira coos, “Aw, you sure? I have a wonderful shoulder to cry on when the weak people you’re trying to protect eventually dies in the coming months. Though, I guess it’s fine. Someone like you might just die before then anyway...” She snickers in her hand while Wolfwood is speechless and just glares. Legato is faintly drawn in the back, glaring at Wolfwood, muttering “worthless” repetitively. End ID]

2012 and Rise TMNT Crossover Masterpost

This is more just humor than rather what I feel like would actually happen, but—

Rise Donnie, rolling up to 12 Casey and 12 Donnie with a PowerPoint: Why You Should Just Date Each Other and Get Over April, A Presentation

12 Donnie and Casey would obviously get flustered, but Rise Donnie does not give a shit.

He’s like

“Consider the Following:

1) You’re both too good for her and you know that.

2) You two have more chemistry with each other than either of you have with April. It’s your classic Rivals-to-Lovers trope, must I say more?

3) She clearly has no romantic interest in either of you and is just leading both of you on at this point.

4) It would be really funny.

5) I fully believe you two would be a power couple strong enough to kill God and he is terrified of that so he made up this hetero love triangle bullshit to keep himself alive. And if there’s one thing I know, all of us Donnies would love to finally kill him. Probably Casey too.

6) Your couple name would be like Con or something and I think that’s very telling.

7) Your color scheme is Black and Purple, which we all know is a superior color scheme.

8) I can just keep listing reasons if you really want me too, I can do this all day—“

Eventually Rise Raph manages to pull Rise Donnie away leaving the two very flustered and questioning their sexualities.

Just another day of Rise Donnie causing chaos.
