Why We Never See Elendira's Story

In a story that emphasizes the human or otherwise sympathetic aspects to its focal characters, it’s very intriguing that Elendira remains an enigma right up until the very end of her story.

We receive some tantalizing hints that there is much, much more to Elendira than what we’re explicitly shown – asides from her apparent sole interest in witnessing the end of the world (to which she'd prefer to see Knives' chosen ending, but is prepared to act herself if he fails), she looks somewhat resigned when saying that nice men “die so easily”, that no matter what Vash does, humans will “ruin it”, and so on and so forth.

[ID: Two screenshots from Trigun Maximum Volume 11. In the first, over a rocky ground, Elendira says "I liked you better when you had nothing to lose. What a shame." She looks down, somewhat resigned, and continues "I don't like nice men. They die so easily." In the second, she stands, frowning and saying "No matter what Vash the Stampede does... there will always be those..." On a close up of her right eye, she says "...who ruin it." End ID.]

Elendira seems to have little to no faith in humanity, and in that sense, she seems a lot like Knives. Knives, who aims to become more and more powerful, and in the process, severing all meaningful ties he has with others on his quest to ensure no one can take advantage of him or use him. We know, of course, that Knives doesn't quite succeed here... but Elendira has. She is the peak of human (or part human? We never get an answer to her unexplained abilities) capability in speed, skill, and strength. The only reason Livio stood any chance in that fight was due to his incredible regeneration.

(As an interesting aside, she also has an interesting commonality with Vash - what comes to mind is her telling the kids to bury Livio because he "died" trying to protect them. Why does she care about that? Why does it matter? None of the other GHGs do this. This is not important to the point I'm making here but it's just interesting to me. There's very few characters who explicitly make a point of burying the dead.)

The point being, Elendira is the height of strength... and at the top, she is alone.

[ID: A panel from Trigun Maximum Volume 13. Elendira is in the action of dropping her white coat, which she has taken off to reveal an underarmour suit that is almost skeletal in appearance. She looks confident. End ID.]

In a story where characters' motives and pasts are told through their connections with others, through their memories with people they cared for, and through the eyes of the people who care for them...

Vash's story is eventually told in pieces to humanity through Meryl, through Luida, and through his sisters. Rem survives in Vash's memories, and we see the part of her story that young Vash saw, just as we also see his own past from this recollection of her.

Milly is a clarifier and communicator who sees so strongly the sides of Meryl and Vash that they suppress, all that grief and fear, for the sake of remaining steadfast. She is the one whose eyes we see through. It had to be seen to be told. Wolfwood does this too.

The rest of GHGs get some elaboration also. Hoppered is defined through his loss of the woman he cared for in July. Midvalley is defined by his fear and contention with Knives. They also have a dynamic between them that few of the other GHGs shared - and it's likely for this reason we received more elaboration on the two of them than many of the others. But even characters like Rai-Dei, for whom we don't get very much at all, has at least his sunk-cost fallacy explained through the memories of the people he's killed to get to that point.

Chronica's story, though largely removed from the people of No Man's Land, is given definition and stakes through the loss of Domina, and we are told about her incredible determination and strategy she has through her reputation with the Earth fleet.

Legato, desperate to play a singularly important role in Knives' story, tells his own through that lens and that lens only. The moment his life changed was the moment Knives entered it, and that is likely the most important memory to him - Knives is the only meaningful bond he has (sadly for him, this was not reciprocated). Well, an argument can be made for the contentious dynamic he builds with Vash too.

Even Knives, for all that he tried to separate himself from others, is known and seen through his connection with Vash - and his acceptance and unwillingness to fully lose this connection is not only what eventually saves him, but also the reason we, as the audience, know his story so well.

We see characters' stories in Trigun mainly through the bonds they share with others - never the whole story, but the sides that others knew of them.

So, who does Elendira have? Every interaction she has is shallow, dismissive, and exceedingly temporary. Through her dislike of Legato, we get that she may be somewhat bitter about his important status to Knives... but there is no elaboration, because it goes no further than that. Knives calls her directly on the phone, and she is very invested in his vision for the end of the world and intrigued by him... but it goes no further than that. He does not really seem to care about her beyond her effectiveness, and she does not offer any information about herself. Even her allegiance is kind of flimsy. She's only there because she wants to be.

During their final fight, Wolfwood lives on through Livio, through his actions and resolve. It is the teamwork between him and Razlo, in the spirit of Wolfwood, that eventually overpowers Elendira. Amusingly (at least to me), Livio is quite literally never alone, because he always has Razlo - and now, Wolfwood too.

"Yer too strong... and that's why yer gonna lose."

[ID: A screenshot from Trigun Maximum Volume 13. Livio narrates over a shot of his eye, Razlo's eye, and finally, his whole face, with Wolfwood's final vial of serum between his teeth. "...to me... to Razlo... and to him." End ID.]

Elendira has succeeded in separating herself from everyone – she is the most powerful of the GHG, and every battle with her is basically one-sided – but she’s alone, and that’s not only why she loses… it’s also why we never get to know her in any meaningful way.

Because no one knows her. She has no personal connection with anyone. Her motivations never get any clarity. We don’t even know who did her modifications or how she gained her power. Even if she did have someone she cared for in the past, she apparently does not hold onto their memory. And maybe that's the reason she told the kids to bury Livio - not out of respect, but because to her, that is where the past belongs - dead and buried, soon to be joined by the rest of the world and humanity as it all comes to an end.

We never see Elendira’s story… because there is no one from whose eyes we can see it in any capacity.

#storyrambles #just my two cents lmao i'm sure there are far simpler explanations such as 'the author just didn't write it out' hdfbvdsh #but i like this one thematically #elendira is so cool. she's one of my favourites fr #trigun #trimax #trigunbookclub #elendira the crimsonnail #trigun meta #call me ace detective the way i am ace. and also a detective. #can i get all my analyses done before october ends? let's find out!

My Our headcanon for the "Viewer" those lil voices they hear. The vessel of the our voices. Unseen to the untrained eye but heard. ~When multiple people of us say similar but different things, our body splits to accommodate each voice while remaining the same whole. ~Is not tethered to any one world ~Became interested in your journey the second you made the obvious mistake of standing under the hollow. ~a part of us does not know why they we are always looked at but not seen, but is ecstatic to be heard.

I promise you i am not asking you to draw us. We are shapeless. This fragment of a voice just chooses to present a. . . shimmer. . . of how we imagine ourselves. It is only fair? We are quite enamored in they way you look.

!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!Iebdlsbslsbdldbels this is awesome!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Oh i love this!! Yea no this is totally canon now and the voices might show up in the following ask panels!!!!!! Also you drew em so so eerily cute, love that! Omg eclipse is so shaped in thisssss

I am shaking you aaaaaa

this is based off that one sonic fandub screenshot you might know the one-

id: a digital drawing of characters from dimension 20: mentopolis. imelda pulse is on the left. she is bubbly pink in a coat dress with a blank speach bubble over her head. next to her is hunch curio. he is a smokey blue in a green trench coat and suit outfit and he has a blank speach bubble over him. between them opening a door is anna lysis. an old lady with bright blue hair and wearing a doily sweater. there is a speack bubble from her saying "What are you two fucking talking about?". end id.

i found the image -

id: a screenshot of SnapCube's real time sonic the hedgehog fandub of rouge and shadow talking and eggman saying "What are you two fucking talking about?" end id.

Hi, I was the recent anon about borrower!soap credit. As soon as i'd sent that off it derailed, thanks to a friend saying he'd bite me if i squished the tiny soap (affectionately), which made me think of my baby cornsnake that is very very very bitey (and of course your naga aus).

Now we have tiny!naga!soap au (aka opinionated hoodie string). There's actual fic thoughts happening....

Enjoy!

OBSESSED WITH THIS ACTUALLY!!! SCREAMING & HOWLING INTO THE CLOUDS!!

an assignment from last semester! it was a "style emulation" project, where you pick three shows from a list the professor provides, as well as two from a list of:

objects (one handheld size, one person-sized); animals (one small, one large); and celebrities (one male-presenting, one female-presenting)

i'm happy with how these turned out!! 😄

#gravity falls #powerpuff girls #spop #stanford pines #J. K. Simmons #jamie lee curtis #bigger post than i expected! #i'm actually really proud of the chair lol #and these were supposed to be colored but i got a pretty bad injury during this assignment so my prof was cool and #let me turn in just lineart as well as gave me a few deadline extensions. #i also really wanted to do bold outlines for more of them especially the ppg drawings but aaaaaa. #i actually haven't watched much spop asqjskskks and i haven't watched much ppg since i was a kid #outside of gathering refs for this assignment #but they were the most interesting style-wise in the list for me #outside of course Gravity Falls :3 #rexan's art
