Griffith Character Ask 1

Of course there are a lot of royal characters in the Studio, but I know this Subscriber has wanted to see Griffith and Canute together in the past, so that’s the direction I went. It’s a pairing that makes sense in the vein of the characters having some parallels, mostly due to them being pretty/effeminate friends/rivals of the protagonist who go on to become antagonists. I don’t know enough about Canute’s story to know how far he goes into that territory, so I assume he’s not as bad as Griffith, but the connection makes sense even if they might not actually get along. And, of course, Griffith has a rocky history with romancing royalty, so I figured I’d play into that a little in the response.
