After seeing your picture, i really wanted to draw a reply. I know you have this elaborate idea of how Ty responds, but i hope this imagery of mine is okay. Mine's not heavily laced with symbolism like yours is, but i have my own touches.
The cat's cradle form Ty is holding is the Manger: meaning he would choose to start a new game over ending it. The blood symbolizes that, even if near death, he will continue to play. And just as a side note, Ty's eyes are fake, therefore he can never cry or shed a single tear. And there are times when he wishes he could cry...
BAWW I DON'T HAVE A ELABORATE IDEA I LOVE SIMPLE THINGS THAT GET STRAIGHT TO THE POINT BUT BWUHHH I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE THIS IT MADE ME WANT TO CRY THOUGH.. MAYBE CAUSE HE'S COVERED IN BLOOD AND THAT TEAR /WRATFACEdaiconswhatdo why's he crying lowahhhhhh AND WHY'S HIS TIE GREY--AM I OVER THINKING THIS OKAYOKAYSTOPSSELFNOW bwuhhsobsintohandsss IT LOOKS MORE SAD THAN BEFORE/GROSSLYCRIES that red string still around his pinky buhhhhGUSHESANDXPLODES what else to say what what i have too much caps already THERE'LL BE A HAPPY ENDING I'LL FORCE ONE HNNNG TOO MUCH TO HANDLE\CANT
