Has Sigurd Done Anything Wrong?

Day 429

I can only find one of the approved arts that I submitted on the mass collage for fgo’s 7th anni but at least it’s the most important one

AWWWWWWWW hell yeah!

Arjuna enjoyers I'd like to hear your thoughts on why you like him so much 🤔 not as in "ew why" but as I'm genuinely curious, I want to get deeper into the arjuverse, give me food for thought

it’s about the like crippling dedication to trying to live up to an impossible ideal of perfection for the sake of everyone who supported and believed in you while grappling with the fact you definitely aren’t perfect and in fact have done some incredibly horrific things

it’s about survivors guilts and believing you’re a monster when in fact you’re just some guy, but bc of the scale of the events that occurs in your life and the way they weigh upon you you never got the resolution and catharsis you needed

it’s about struggling with feelings of guilt and inadequacy and thinking bc you feels those things you’re lesser bc of the burden of the expectations you had placed upon you, and feeling like bc of the love others held for you you have no right to feel any dissatisfaction or pain from anything that happened to you, no matter how traumatic it might’ve been

It’s about feeling selfish for feeling hurt and exhausted, and bc of that craving isolation while simultaneously not wanting to be alone bc at the end of the day you crave connection with someone who understands and accepts the side of you that can’t live up to the image of the ideal hero

it’s about being an incredibly human reflection of what it means to try and be a hero-someone who struggles with the burden placed on them but continues moving forward anyway bc despite it all they still feel love for people they meet

It’s about feeling incredible guilt for killing your brother but still whacking him upside the head every chance you get cause he’s a little punk, and getting way too into every new thing you try, and doing cool archery trick shots, and being the most fashionable man at chaldea, and having brown eyes, and buying cutesy souvenirs bc it reminds you of the time you spent with dear friends, and occasionally jumping into things head first, and being a fan of dragon idols, and taking silly roles you get roped into very seriously I promise I’m not having fun 😤, and-

interesting! thanks for answering. if this is bare bones (which I 100% believe and relate to with other characters) then I'm definitely up to reading more if you ever feel like it
