[SKETCHING STORIES №1: ROBBIE'S HAIR]
Hello, fellas. I just decided to start a new segment where I tell the stories from creating character redesigns, drawing locations, etc. Today, I will tell the story of Robbie's hair redesign (click on the image to see it in better quality).
Tumblr media
You must have noticed that Robbie's hairstyle looks pretty atypical: like a huge bow behind his head. At first, I did not have any particular difficulties with drawing such hairstyle, but then I realized that it was getting harder and harder for me. And plus, my AU needs more character redesigns. This has already been done to Impa, Craig and Clyde, why not do the same to Rob?
Tumblr media
This collage contains my very first sketches with Robbie from the end of 2020 to the beginning of 2021. Everything seems to be fine, but... This hairstyle seemed TERRIBLY UNREALISTIC to me! How does it keep its shape? Due to what? Hairpins? Electrical shocks? So I decided to experiment with the poor mechanic's hairstyle.
I decided to emulate the style of other artists such as @/ranger-kellyn or @/artisticzaati, but at the same time I tried to add something of my own. And on the very first picture you can see the results of these experiments.
Tumblr media
It turns out that Robbie looks best when he's not wearing goggles and his hair is down or messy. But of course, he can't appear at work in this form, so I still have to improve and improve his everyday image.
And if anything, I'm working so hard on the image of a young Robbie to illustrate fanfiction Hyrule Warriors: The Backstories (Wattpad) and Afterlife (Tumblr). In his eldery form, the mechanic will appear in the third chapter of the first season of the comic.

Imp Midna and wolf Kevin Stoley
After the release of the first TotK (back then BotW 2) trailer, I (like many others) thought that this game would be more like Twilight Princess than Skyward Sword. And I, like many native folks, hoped for a return of Midna in this game😅. Generally, I decided that due to the break in the space-time continuum, a lot of characters from other games will appear in the second season of Hyrule Park (I already talked about this in the ninth day of Linktober), and Midna is no exception. What you see here is just a concept, as I'm not sure if she can turn into an imp again. But this is my first time when I drew Midna in this way. I can't guarantee that she will actually appear in the comic, but I will try my best to make it happen because Midna is one of the most beloved characters among Zelda fans😁

Hooray! I can't even believe that Linktober has already come to an end. And since "Free Day" fell on Halloween, why not draw something themed and not related to Hyrule Park. What we have here is Gregory as Link, the girl from the upcoming DLC ​​(I call her Daisy) as Saria, Glamrock Freddy as Navi, and a combination I'm personally proud of - Vanessa as Sheik. The badly drawn Glitchtrap as Ganondorf was drawn by Gregory himself.
I made this crossover as a sign that I decided to take a break from Zelda and focus on FNAF (and on the original characters too). Of course, this does not mean that I will postpone work on @welcome-to-hyrulepark again. But FNAF MA and GI.F.ON are also waiting for their creator.

In honor of the 8th anniversary of FNAF, I finally created a poster for my AU, whose characters I managed to introduce in one of my early posts (which set an absolute record for the most posts on Tumblr). I'll tell you about the plans for the animated series: of course, to make this idea a reality, I need a team of talented animators, preferably FNAF fans. Despite the endless stream of new theories that refute the previous ones, I was able to come up with a coherent plot for the animated series, in the finale of which Afton's finale will come.
The animated series will have 2 seasons - the first season will take place in the Scott era (FNAF 1 - UCN), that is, from the 1970s to 2024. The second season will take place in the SteelWool era (Help wanted - Security breach DLC). The season will be dedicated to Gregory's adventures in Mega Pizzaplex and his interesting discoveries about Fazbear Entertainment.
By the way, I'll be spending more time on the FNAF topic on my Deviantart (while on Tumblr I'll be talking more about Zelda), as this platform is arguably the main home of FNAF artists. They even styled their 22nd birthday event as FNAF!
And here is some songs from series' soundtrack:

After the release of the trailer announcing the postponement of Tears of the Kingdom to 2023, I saw a bunch of comics where Link from Skyward Sword was about to kick his later reincarnation's ass for failing to keep Fi from getting damaged. And all this gave me the idea to make the spirit of Skyward either a grumpy grandpa who considers the new generation to be irresponsible losers the personification of Link's sense of unfulfilled duty to dead friends, or some kind of ghostly mentor who will help Link not to make fatal mistakes. And yes, I came up with my own design for Link in Tears of the Kingdom, exclusively for my AU.

Sudden @artisticzaati appreciation post.
Everything he makes and does is always with such passion and dedication. Always driving to do better and more each time. Sometimes he goes WAY out of the ballpark with pieces and it's absolutely inspiring every single time!

So lately, I’ve been feeling extremely grateful for those on the server, those that I follow, etc.
So I’ve decided to do a quick tribute to the five people that got me started on Tumblr. That made me join just so I could compliment their work.
First, and you were literally THE first (like, you were the blog i started looking at first) is the amazing: @arkon-z !!!!!!! I love your blog so much, your posts make me so happy, and you make me happy on the server. Thanks 🥰
Next up is the second person I joined for. The second blog I bookmarked and payed attention to. The wonderful @artisticzaati . I know I just said this, but I have to say it again: your art is so, so amazing. It brings me so much joy. Never stop arting, friend, or being the amazing person you are. (People, get to his blog rn and reblog/like at least 1 of his things if you like it. don’t just say, “thats cool” or “i like that” and move on. HE CARES ABOUT THE LIKES. So please, please support him if you enjoy his content. He needs a morale boost 🧡)
His blog led me on to discover two incredible and inseparable people’s blogs: @purahstechlab and @akkalatechlabs . You guys make me so, so happy, and everything you post does too. Love you guys 😊
And last, but not least (nor are any of these least!) is the blog that helped me work out my own ideas of a Malice!Impa fic, and provided me with wholesome (and deliciously angsty) content. @lady-impa , step forward. Your writing is some of the best ever. I looooove all of your AU’s. Keep on writing! 🧡
Y’all, you’re the best! And don’t think I forgotten about the rest of you on the PuRobbie server. I love you too 🧡 (And my followers, like thanks so much, frankly I’m surprised that I even have followers lol)

Imagine Victor putting a spoon under the sink and the water just comes right back and hits Roman in the face. Victor is no longer allowed near the dishes.
Oh my god.
Just imagine it though...
Roman just spent like 200$ on that new custom suit then Victor by accident just... splashes Roman's face and new suit with one single spoon, ruining the suit just like That.
Quickly turning the sink off and slowly turning to see Roman with his hands by his sides glaring at Victor with water just dripping off his face.
"Harmless alright." Roman mutters to himself, wiping water off his face.
Victor slowly smiles innocently. Whoops.

I'm sorry but I love no matter the relationship some us have independently yet collectively decided Robbie is polyamorous.
Like me with Puroblink
@redshift-corridor with Cherry x Robbie x Purah
@artisticzaati and @akkalatechlabs PuAstorRobbie
Like Robbie loves Purah but has more than enough love for whoever else people ship him with and that's beautiful.

Sometimes I do feel alone with this to be honest, but thank you. We both lost someone really special for sure..

Tagged by @ranger-kellyn, thanks pal!
I don't ship on principle (that principle being I'm aroace and romance is an utter enigma to me), so I'm going to change the rules to friendshipping instead. Now let me tell you about my favorite pairs of besties.
3 (friend)ships: Purah & Robbie. No question. I love their dynamic and everything I've invented for it. Zelda & Impa, also to the surprise of no one who follows me. Impa is my favorite character of all time and making her nearly the same age as Zelda in AOC was a brilliant move by the devs. Finally, Samus & Pikachu. There's something so wholesome about this little mouse finding a way to get along with this outsider human, and their friendship works because they're so different from each other.
First (friend)ship: Harry & B'Elanna from Star Trek: Voyager. The top of the class honor roll student meets the dropout from a troubled family, and then they get lost together. They seem like natural enemies but they aren't - she's nice to him because he's so naive and he's kind to her because he thought she needed a friend. A+ tier dynamic.
Last song: That I remember the title of? "I'll Be There For You" by the Rembrandts, aka the Friends theme song. Also, do yourself a favor and listen to the whole thing. It's actually really wholesome.
Last movie: A Muppet Christmas Carol.
Currently reading: ST:VOY: Battle Lines, by Dave Galanter and Greg Brodeur. Number 16 of the Voyager licensed novels.
Currently watching: The Ace Attorney 3: Trials and Tribulations Livedub VOD from Sonicmega's twitch channel. With a small break for the Miitopia VOD. Look, you try to commit to a TV series with ADHD and unlimited choices, okay?
Currently consuming: chicken nuggets and fries. I love our air fryer.
Tagging (if you feel like it, no pressure): @narbevoguel, @lordsooga, @strawberry-science, @swoodthis, @akkalatechlabs and @artisticzaati.

The weak point smash attacks in Age of Calamity are cool enough, but I wish the camera didn't lock the way it does during the animation, because it means we miss seeing details like this:
The Blademasters wave to Kohga after they toss him, which you don't see unless the camera gets stuck at a different angle. Like, that's a fun detail! Why would you hide it where we can't see it?

Good news! I'm slowly becoming a fan of the Metroid series. This started shortly after I was exposed to the idea that Samus and Pikachu are pals ever since she rescued him in Smash Bros Brawl in the Subspace Emissary story. Which I know isn't part of the Metroid lore, obviously, but it did make me appreciate Samus as a character.
She is an ice-cold, unflinching badass in her games (which I need to finish playing still, so no spoilers) and relies on no one but herself. That said, I love the idea that she has a soft spot for this fuzzy yellow critter with the world's worse case of static. She saw he was in trouble, broke him out with no hesitation because it was the right thing to do and now they're inseparable.
And I know that has nothing to do with Metroid proper, but like I said, it makes me appreciate Samus that much more. That's the power of fanfic, baby.

Perhaps a spicy take:
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity did more to make Hyrule feel like a populated, living world to me than many of the mainline games.
I'm serious. This version of Hyrule feels like it's full of people, and as you play, you really get a sense that you're helping them out. See, to earn things like health bonuses and attack combos, you have to complete these little text-only quests. On every level where you actually fight enemies, you earn materials, and different quests require specific materials for completion. And all these quests have a little blurb about a task that needs to be done that requires the materials you provide. When you complete the quest, there's another blurb talking about how you helped the people out.

Random BOTW headcanon:
Master Kohga faked his death in his fight with Link so he could go back to his nap.
He's not incompetent by any means and is in fact a skilled and powerful warrior. The fight was a sham to get the Thunder Helm out of the hideout so the Gerudo would stop raiding it. His lackeys stole it because it's treasure, but he obviously couldn't just say, "Take it back, you're making it worse around here." After his 'defeat', the rest of the Yiga played along, accusing Link of murder and making their attacks more personal.
In conclusion, Master Kohga is actually very intelligent and despite being the leader of a cult of personality, he watches out for the clan and acts in their best interest at all times.

The Rise of Amadeus.
So after some talk with @artisticzaati I’ve decided I’ll post the side storyline that blossomed the most Amadeus art and really shows how he is at his peak. It’s written by him and I but I altered it a bit to make it more... readable for tumblr. You’re welcome!
--
TW: Extreme descriptions of violence and major character death.
--
Ravii awaited at the spot they made the deal at; Fort Hateno. The corrupted king sat upon a decaying guardian, looking up at the clouds slowly moving across the moon. Round and bright... Closing his eyes he listened to everything around him, the crickets, the wind blowing into the hollow guardians... it was honestly, peaceful. Not for long however, once that man step foot on the field, the kingdom was going to fall into his hands. If everything fell into place as he planned, like pawns on a chessboard, he would sweep this land and take it by force. It all depended on one man. The one who better hold his end of the bargain. If he did not show however...
Ravii takes out the locket in his pocket, looking at it. Opening it up it has a simple name in it beside the picture of that man and a woman together: 'Purah.'  
"Purah... Hm.." He closes the locket and shoves it back into his pocket, "I will see you soon it seems." He sighs, hopping off the guardian.  
Robbie, far from Ravii looked down at the new sword hybrid in his hands, swallowing nervously. This was all Ravii wanted and it was over.  
  Simple.  
“... Alright. Alright! Get ahold of yourself...” Robbie whispers to himself.
  (HE IS GOING TO TURN ON YOU.)  
Robbie freezes in place. No... not him. Not now!
“... everything will be alright.” Robbie reassured himself and... the other.
Nodding to himself he walks to Fort Hateno, raising his gaze on Ravii walking away. Robbie inhales and runs over to meet him, breathing heavily.  
“Wh-wait-! I am here, as promised! I... I also brought this, as promised!” He holds out the sword bladesaw combination, looking up at him for a moment then bows his head down, holding up the sword over his head.  
“It is light and swift as a normal sword but when you pull the trigger, it activates the bladesaw part...” He swallows nervously, staring at the ground. He can feel the other's gaze on him. Looking down on him. Burning into him... He hated every moment of it. But he needed to protect Purah and their child from this man at all costs.
"Impressive... you made it pretty quickly too." Ravii raised an eyebrow, taking the sword out of Robbie's hands. He takes out his other sword to compare the two blades carefully. Testing out the weight of each blade. He swings the ancient tech sword, humming to himself. Swings his other sword right after.  
Another amused hum leaves the King.  
"You are quite talented. Never met someone who can craft such weaponry like this before..." He glances at Robbie, seeing his head still bowed, "You impress me." He pulled the trigger and gasped as it went off.  
Immediately Ravii dropped his old sword on the ground to grasp the new blade with both his hands. Swinging it side to side, full force. Turning around he looks at the decaying guardian and swings at one of the legs, immediately cutting through it.  
"It is incredible! Such power..." Ravii smiles and looks at Robbie once more, pulling the trigger to make it stop, using the tip of the blade to lift Robbie's chin to make him look up.  
"You have my trust. All of it."  
  That was no easy feat.  
Sweat dripped on Robbie’s forehead as he looked up at Ravii, forcing out a smile.  
“Of course! It is always a pleasure to create new weapons... this was a difficult one but I did it! It is one of my best...” He slowly stood up, carefully pushing the tip of the sword away with his finger and took a deep breath.  
“Are... Are we done here? I brought you the sword. That is all you asked for, right? Is... is there anything else?” The Sheikah regrets opening his mouth already. He HAD to ask if there was anything else... Careless again.
  ... As always.  
Robbie's expression slowly changes to a grin, crossing his arms and shrugs.  
"Not that I would give you anything else. The sword is all yours now, can I leave, your Majesty or whatever you are.”  
Robbie suddenly snaps out of it, his eyes widen and he covers his mouth.  
“NOT NOW... NOT RIGHT NOW... YOU IDIOT” Robbie thought to himself, directing it to the other.
“ ... M-My apologies I... I...” Robbie swallows nervously. The other one was going to get them both killed at this rate.  
Ravii was taken aback by the sudden expression change of the other. His sudden... tone of voice and atmosphere around him sent the King to a genuine shock.  
"... What did you say to me? Repeat yourself." He aims the sword to Robbie's face, the tip of the blade just mere inches away from nose. Ravii leans closer to Robbie, glaring intensely at him. Eyes sharp as the blade itself.
"Say that again to me." Ravii glared at the Sheikah.
Robbie’s eyes widen as he gazes at the tip of his own creation in from of him. Slowly his eyes travel up to Ravii's face.  
“I... erm, I don't remember. I have this uh, c-condition it's uh... very serious. My brain just mutters weird things and I cannot control it!” This was incredibly unbelievable. Lying was not his best suit, that's for sure. But there was half-truth even with how ridiculous it sounded...  
“K-King Ravii, I apologize if I said anything to trouble you. Please forgive me. I beg of you! I'll make it up to you! Another weapon! Or... or... just...” He had to remain calm, this would go very badly if he screwed it up.
“... Th-the guardians. I'll make you a custom one that only listens to you! I can d-do that! Simple!” Robbie held his head down now, looking at his own legs wobbling from the amount of tension and fear he was facing right now. He felt sick, unstable... as if he could faint right here from the high stress.
"... Such disrespect for me will end up being your end. Do not speak to me again like that." Ravii lifts the blade slightly, tilting it to the side, slicing a bit of Robbie's cheek deeply.  
"... Understood? You are mine. You speak ill towards me and you will face the consequences. I do not care if you were to die, I'll get to you and..." Drawing back, Ravii nods his head up, ordering Robbie to stand.  
"... Purah, was it? If you wish to go against my words or even disrespect me even slightly... her blood will be on your hands. Do you understand me?”
All the color in Robbie’s face drained when he spoke her name... He knew her name.
   He... knew her name.
Purah isn't safe anymore.  
More was at stake now. More than he could handle. He couldn't handle this, he wanted to run far away with Purah for safety...  
Swallowing nervously Robbie stood up, wiping the blood that dripped from the fresh cut on his cheek against the sleeve of his jacket. Smudging the mixture of crimson red and a dark glimmer of black color across his cheek, making a larger mess on his face... His eyebrows furrowed as he hissed in pain between his clenched jaw. Being cut by his own created sword, at least he knew it worked... how ironic was that? Robbie forced a chuckle under his breath at the thought alone. How dare this man make a fool out of his work like this?  
Ravii turns around – his back facing Robbie. His cape gracefully following behind him.
  The symbol of the Triforce was on it... Ravii wore it with pride.  
"Now tell me... these guardians." Ravii spoke, glancing at Robbie with a side glance over his own shoulder, "How can they follow only my orders alone? How do you make them listen to your orders? Is it those ugly things you wear?" Motions his hand to his forehead, speaking of the goggles.  
"They do not work for me when I took them. Why do these 'guardians' only listen to you? What makes such a simple person like you so special?" Ravii spat at Robbie, glaring at the Sheikah. He turns around again, about to grab his collar until ... what was that black on his cheek? Ravii clicks his tongue, quickly inspecting the blood and whatever the black stuff mixed with it was.  
"Are you... even a Sheikah?" Ravii spoke as he scoops a little of it on his finger and rubs it between his index finger and thumb, looking closer.
"What is this? And why does it...burn?" Ravii wipes it on Robbie's jacket, frowning. "Ugh...disgusting. Let us go, you strange individual.... Clean yourself up. I don't want to be seen with such a mess of a person."  
Robbie slowly raises his hand to his cheek, wiping the malice mixed blood onto his hand and his vision starts to blur. Taking a deep breath, he shook his head to gain his focus back.  
“Ah... y-yes. The guardians and I are uh, you see... we are linked by a telepathic force. It took a while to master it but with the help of the ma-... ancient texts, I figured it out. It is a technique only the Sheikah can master. Especially me, since I... I have ancient technology built into me.” Robbie smiled a little as he taps his left temple, showing his burnt-out eye as it flickers for a moment.  
“Without me, they will go haywire. Well, the ones under my control. There are still some that I haven't gotten to save yet... but that aside! If you have me, the guardians will also be on your side!”  
 Maybe with that fact he won't get hurt again, Robbie thought to himself.
“Meaning you lied to me just now, didn't you?" The corrupted king looked down at Robbie, his grip on the handle shaking, twitching... aching to cut the man testing his luck in front of him again.
"So, what is the truth? Can they only listen to you or perhaps... they will listen to me if they see who is stronger? Is that it?" A crooked grin slowly arched on Ravii's face, his expression becoming more twisted before the other's eyes.  
"They just need to see who is the true leader here! The true king! I will guide them... I will guide them all... rushing to get what I deserve. I don't think I even need you anymore..."
Robbie’s eyes widened at the King, “No-! No... I am not lying! If I make it from scratch, I can program it to listen to you. The other ones are harder to do that. I swear! If I were to get hurt or..." Robbie swallows nervously, “...worse, they will target whoever hurt me majorly. A simple cut will not trigger them... but anything more severe? They will all go haywire and out of control searching for whoever hurt or killed me. I would never lie about something like this.” Robbie glances at Ravii's hand clenching the handle as he spoke. He could tell this man was clearly unstable. Worse than Astor, even...  
“I will make you many guardians that listen to your orders! I just need more time! More time... I swear it! Please...  
 ... Please...” 
There was a sob slipping in his voice, Robbie was becoming scared and couldn't hold back anymore. Tears were pooling up as he felt he was begging for his life right now.
Ravii shook his head, laughing.  
"Look at you! The real colors come out when I drop you. You beg for a use again... how humbling... but also incredibly pathetic." Ravii leans down, face to face with Robbie and wipes the tears off the other man's cheeks.  
"Fear not... your actions will not be in vain! I know people like you. You only live to be useful for others. Over and over... but there is always someone better, isn't there? A replacement. Just know... that you will always be in my heart. This senseless vicious cycle will end..."  
Ravii smiled, patting Robbie’s chest where his heart was, "And I'll make sure your dear Purah knows how proud you made the kingdom with your sacrifice..."  
Ravii drew his hand back and with a swift movement, he lunged the blade into the Sheikah's chest, leaning closer to Robbie's ear, smiling widely. "A worthy right-hand man you were."  
Robbie's eyes widen at the sharp pain in his chest, slowly glancing down at his own creation... no...  
   Robbie tries to push Ravii away as he drew closer again to him.  
“... ngh!” Robbie mutters out as his gaze started to blur. No... he can't do this. Everything was blurring.  
  The pain was unbearable.
Ravii pulls the blade out and kicks him onto the ground as he takes the locket out of his own chest pocket, tossing it beside Robbie.  
"As promised... Now then... I have a kingdom to take over and guardians to control. Goodbye, Robbie." Ravii turns on his heel, swinging his sword harshly to whip the blood off his blade as he walks away from the other laying on the ground. Ravii picks up his older sword he dropped from before, placing it back by his hip as he carried the new sword in his hand.  
“Pu...rah...!” Robbie whispers as he lays on the ground. Clenching his teeth, he tries to pull himself up - sharp pain would travel throughout his body with every movement.  
 He cannot let him get Purah. No.. No....
Ravii’s ear twitches as he heard Robbie muttering something under his breath.  
"Purah? Oh, that dear one? I'll take very good care of her. She is a pretty one... Maybe I'll make her MY wife!" The King cackles.  
“...Ra...vii!” Robbie speaks a little louder, making sure the other could hear him.
With his final breath he whistles for the guardians, glaring at Ravii, his eyesight clearing on the other man. Focused. Scanning. Making sure the guardians would destroy him from where he stood. Even with his last breath he would make sure Purah would be safe from this man.  
Ravii, still cackling at the Purah comment suddenly pauses as Robbie whistles. Tilting his head curiously.
Robbie slowly pointed at Ravii as guardians flew over him. Ravii, raising his head glances up at all the guardians flying towards him. 
Ah. This was his chance!  
"Hear me, mechanical beasts! I have defeated your... leader. You must listen to me now-" Robbie cuts him off with his last breath, simple two words that made Ravii freeze up.  
“... destroy.... him!" The Sheikah screamed in pure anger and hatred and dropped. He had no more strength to move anymore.
All the red pointers all focused on Ravii - as much as he adored the attention, he knew this would end badly.  
"... You bastard." Ravii clicks his tongue and takes a deep breath, glancing at the lifeless man across from him.  
"You were telling the truth, huh?" Ravii shakes his head. Sighing, Ravii rushes towards Robbie and skids to a stop, sitting beside him.  
"Shoot me. Your leader here is in shots way... want to hurt him more? Go ahead you idiotic beasts." He glares at the closest skywatcher to him dead center to the eye as he pats Robbie's head, cackling.
"Come on! Do it. Or listen to me..." A smirk arched Ravii’s lips.
The skywatcher scanned Ravii and Robbie beside him. Errors popping up on their side of the screen. Not knowing whether to shoot or not.  
“ . . . (bzzzt) . . . Smart.” That was... Robbie's voice from the guardian? No. It was more glitched than his voice.  
  What was that?
“You are pretty smart for a royal pain in the ass, I'll give you that.”
Robbie's hand suddenly slammed on Ravii's shoulder as he used him to sit up, shaking his head and took a deep inhale and exhaled. That same black ink from before was manifesting by the blade wound.  
Ravii flinches at the sudden hand on his shoulder as if all time stopped, he slowly turns his head, seeing the man he watched just die rise as if nothing happened. Like a phoenix from the ashes, he rises again... but this wasn't the same man.  
No. He could feel the overwhelming power from him. There was something dark within him and it chilled even Ravii - nothing ever made him flinch.  
 Not like this.
“That hurt, you know. I told him you would betray us and he fell right into that one, the idiot.” Laughing 'Robbie' pats Ravii's shoulder, leaning his face in front of Ravii's with a big grin on his face.  
“How dare you kill Robbie! We were just getting along too! But fret not, I'll save him eventually...  
 ... but!
   Until then! It's my turn to shine!” The corrupted Sheikah quickly grabs the hybrid sword he made and stands up fully.  
“Time to rock!” He smiles as he swings the sword by Ravii's face
"What?! How are you still alive?!" Ravii screams and goes to grab his old sword just as the other swipes it from him, swinging it by his face - cutting a few hairs hanging from his forehead.  
He was faster than Ravii in the state. What happened for him to change?
"What do you mean? You speak as if Robbie has died yet you - Robbie - are speaking to me right this moment! Have you gone mad?" Ravii swallows nervously as he jumps to his feet. He draws his old sword from his side, holding it up while watching the other closely.  
"...Just who are you?!" Ravii glares at him, standing his ground now.  
‘Robbie’ laughs and points the sword at Ravii while walking slowly around him, gazing.  
“Finally someone asks! But you of all people...” His grin grows wildly as his stare intensifies.  
“... I am Amadeus. I do not know what I am, but I have a body and mind, anger and passion. Am I alive? Who knows what I truly am. Perhaps I am merely apart of Robbie who was caged for so long... begging to be freed, or someone of my own. Malice with mind and soul of my own somehow? Despite it all...
  ... All I know is I am alive....and that we are one the same - two sides of the same coin. Unlucky for you, you ran out of luck with this flip. And now that I have full control again thanks to you, well...” Amadeus flips the sword in the air and catches it by the handle, snapping his stare at Ravii again.  
“I'm going to make sure you regret threatening Purah into this mess. Robbie begged for her safety and trust. I am not so nice like that.” His head twitches as he glares at Ravii. Thinking for a moment his expression changes, a mischievous grin on his face quickly flashes.  
“I'll be kind, I'll pretend to be Robbie for a moment though, just for fun! How would you like to go? A beam from one of my babies here or a sword into your empty void where your heart is supposed to be like you did with us?”  
Amadeus taps his arm in a ticking rhythm. Grinning still.  
“Tick. Tick. Tick... hurry before I choose for you!”
   ... For once.  
For once in Ravii's entire life, he was speechless and terrified. What WAS this man? No ordinary Sheikah... why didn't he sense that power around him? Did he somehow keep it locked away within him? No... there was no way he could have done that. Ravii shakes his head and glances at the guardians above and the ones quickly scurrying on the horizon. More were coming and he was going to be surrounded - no escape. He had to think quick... Maybe if he struck them like last time, he can kill this "Amadeus" as well...  
"You say you do not know what you are... perhaps I have... no, I truly did underestimate you. If you join me, imagine what we could do together - you and I! You could then discover who or what you are! Don't you realize what you can do? With this... with these..." He raises his hands up, looking at the guardians above them, "... we could take over this kingdom so easily. Just you and I alone!" Ravii was clearly shaking and avoiding the choices of his own execution.  
"We can take over together, Amadeus. You have so much potential... and you are wasting it on me. Why not of grandeur scale?!" He was pointing his sword at him now; his voice was panicked - he couldn't calm himself.  
"Please! I beg of you! Work alongside me!" Ravii’s voice was laced with desperation and fear. He stood, watching the other tilt his head in thought as he screamed and plead for Amadeus to join him.
“Oh, what was that? You beg of me? Wow... doesn't THAT sound familiar or WHAT?  
 Say it again, 
     say it again!” Amadeus cackles, clapping and walks towards him as two guardian stalkers follow him closely.  
“Yeeeow... muuuusic to my ears!” Amadeus grabs Ravii by the front of his cape and with his other hand he loops his sword around Ravii's sword, knocking out of his hand. Amadeus then slams him against the wall, glaring at him.
“Tick TICK...
  Actually, that is too bad... times up.”
“Wh-?!” Ravii winced as Amadeus slammed him against the wall, staring at the corrupted man in horror.
Amadeus tilts his head and pulls the trigger of the sword, making the smaller blades go on, rapidly spinning like the bladesaw.  
“You said you want to see who I am? Want to work with me? Well...  
  ... I made my decision. 
You hurt me twice with my own weapon, now you'll see it's ‘true potential’.”
Just as Ravii did to Robbie - with a quick motion he drives the sword into the corrupted king, not breaking eye contact as he does so. Watching Ravii as all the color on his face drains. Just like he did with them.  
Pulling the trigger again the blades stop and he let's go of the blade, leaving it there lodged in his chest.  
Ravii coughs violently as his eyes widened at the horror in front of him. Not the guardians or even the sword... that man in front of him. Ravii has never felt so much fear in his life. The sword he requested was now in his own chest by the creator himself.  
“I work for no one. If anything, I want to see this kingdom in ruin by my guardians. No kings nor queens, no monarchy... nothing. I don't care.  
  ... Oh, and you can keep the sword. It was made for you after all.”
Ravii’s vision was shaking, blurred... he felt panic, nausea... all at once and suddenly he felt ...
     ... Cold.  
Dropping to the ground he glanced up at the glowing eye of the monster in front of him. No, not the mechanical beasts... that monster he let out of the cage. Amadeus' eye glowing a dark, deep red looking down on him.
Amadeus watches Ravii fall to the ground and his grin only grows wider. It would be the last thing he sees along with the guardians lasers aiming at him. He waves his hand as he picks up Ravii's old sword and walks away.
The fallen king watches Amadeus pick up his sword and walk out of his sight. Now focusing on the red lasers of the guardians.  
Amadeus hum one last word that would be the last thing Ravii hears.  
As if all time stopped, everything was silent.
  “... Boom.”
The guardians fire their beams all at once and the king's scream were drowned out by the loud boom of the beams.  
King Ravii was no more.  
Nothing, nor even the sword was left.  
   Like the kingdoms he left behind.
