While rewatching Hardcore Manhunt to better fill out Green's biography, I noticed this interesting detail about Purple.
First image: Purple's about to fight a massive raid, an army of Illagers with nothing but his wings and a sword. He is fearless, charging at them with no signs of turning back.
Second image: Purple sees the glitching chest and freaks out. He is legitimately scared and his first instinct is, "Gotta hide!" He ducks behind Blue, seemingly scared of the glitches, totally different from his aggressiveness toward the Illager raid.
Could there be a reason for this? Why would Purple act so brave one moment against the Raid and so fearful the next upon seeing the glitch? He could be more acquainted with the Raid and knows what he's getting into, while the glitch is new (and more frightening) to him. I'd like to imagine King told Purple about Gold's death and he's scared of meeting the same fate, but that's not confirmed, obviously.
One thing's for sure: This is (to me at least) an interesting contrast for my favorite purple boi.
