Description
It's been a really long time since I did one of those fake screenshot things, so I wanted to do another one. Originally was planning on making a gif but I went a little more crazy with coloring than I had hoped and it would be a pain to animate.In this case, it's based on Orion's death in Greek mythology and Sagittarius' reaction to it. Orion was killed by Scorpio after Artemis summoned the scorpion to kill him. Sagittarius is sometimes associated with Enkidu, while Orion is based on Gilgamesh. The two were considered close friends after Enkidu gained respect for Gilgamesh and they went on journeys together. So for this I imagined the two to have been good friends, with Sag being devastated by his death.
According to the legend of how Scorpio and Sagittarius' constellations are placed in the sky Sagittarius' arrow is pointed towards Antares, the heart of the scorpion, in order to avenge Orion's death.

Yeah some of the signs have some sadder stories to them.
It wasn’t Scorpio’s fault though. He was ordered to do it

My friend's working on him actually. His clothes are being redesigned at the moment, but here's her rough sketches of him.
