Good Excuse To Get This Done, No Pressure To Include Him Though!

Adding on to this real quick, Second's "attack mode" (as I call it) is only activated when he feels like his friends are in threatened, right?

Well this fight is probably because Red endangered Second's friends, including himself, by going through the portal. Especially since Second is blaming him in this moment.

Just a nice bit of consistent character writing ^^

I know that everyone and their mother has probably talked about the Lush Caves episode, but I need to add my thoughts or I will explode :)

(this turned out pretty long, so I put it under a cut just to be safe)

This fight has been set up since the end of the Witch episode, where Red basically convinces everyone else to trust Purple, going DIRECTLY against Orange.

Now, Orange had a good point. Every time the CG have gone into strange Nether portals they've ended up on a long traumatizing adventure that Orange has had to rescue them from. Rightfully, he doesn't want to go through that again.

But when Red (and subsequently the rest of the RYGB) don't listen, it causes tension, and sets in motion a time bomb that blew up when those two were stuck in the desert.

(Kudos to Alan and his animation team for getting this all across in a purely visual manner, they did an amazing job!)

They are both hungry and tired, their emotions are threadbare, and it turns into a blame-game.

Orange says that it's Red's fault that they're stuck out here because he went through the portal. If they hadn't, they could have been at home right now!

Red says that at least they had had fun, home was boring.

Orange bites back by saying now he and Red were going to die out here, and they didn't even know where Blue, Yellow and Green were.

Red ignores that and says that it's actually Orange's fault because it was his idea to use the beacons to glitch out of the parkour box.

And Orange snaps.

This is the part during my first watch-through where I was freaking out .

The two best fighters of the CG, in a wonderfully animated fight sequence, BUT THERE'S EMOTIONAL STAKES, and the sun has set.

Do you understand the turmoil I was experiencing.

Anyway this scene is amazing. Red and Orange are only focused on one thing; fighting each other.

It's a little funny sometimes, like when Orange one-shots a creeper, but then you see Orange literally throw more zombies/husks in Red's direction to overwhelm him and you remember that this might have ended in one of them killing the other if they hadn't fallen into the caves.

Because at this point Red has started to try to run away. It's Orange who seems to snap out of it when they stop fighting in the caves.

Maybe the youngest hollow-head has a taste for violence after all.

Anyway, they get a moment of reconciliation/peace before they are approached by alexcrafter28, and then they get their way back home. From here on, they're a team again. However I wish we could hear them speak because I would LOVE to hear the conversations during and after the fight.

SPOILERS FOR VI (Kinda?)

This is how I interpret most of the episode.

My interpretation of that moment:

I like to imagine this was just Green awkwardly flirting. There is no straight explanation for this lol.

for WHAT reason did they make green pull that pose with purple. ok yeah he is a perfectionist and attempts to be confident. but specifically with purple hello????????? HI?????????
