#unless the sword is entirely ceremonial you're telling me she put back every scratch and sign of wear and tear????

thinking about how ballister's sword was given to him by ambrosius to aid him in becoming a knight and possibly as a token of friendship or love... and the director yoinked that shit and replaced it with a tool of destruction that almost cost ballister his life and resulted in ambrosius cutting off the arm he was going to wield that gift with

also let's not forget the director would've also killed ambrosius with ballister's actual sword if nimona hadn't gotten there first. she literally would've used something he gave ballister out of love to murder him.

man like. there's a 'g' turned to a 'b' carved on that sword. that's their names put together. that's their history together. that's nearly their whole lives spent together. loving each other. taken away and used as a weapon against both of them. this movie's great. i love this movie

#welcome to cilly's house of looking too deep into things #nimona #goldenheart #ballister boldheart #ambrosius goldenloin #props to the director for apparently recreating bal's sword perfectly tho like. #unless the sword is entirely ceremonial you're telling me she put back every scratch and sign of wear and tear???? #i'm reading too much into this but like. if someone gave me a replica of my sword they could swear up and down it's the same sword #but i'd be like 'the guard doesn't have that random wobble i'm used to but nice try' #i'm definitely reading too much into it they're ceremonial for sure LMAO
