#like why is claptrap so tragic? why is he the most miserable character in the whole series?

[handsome-john]

Everyday I think about the ending to Claptastic voyage and how it ends with Shadowtrap offering Claptrap power and how claptrap refuses this, wanting to stand with his friends and then how shortly after those friends turn around and kill him and his entire product line just as Shadowtrap said they would and how much Claptrap truly believed his friends were his friends and how they hated him and how even Athena who was neutral towards Claptrap did nothing to stop him from being destroyed and how the only reason Claptrap even survived was because of Shadowtrap and how Claptrap is just supposed to be an annoying side character that the audience and the characters could laugh at and make fun of but the writers turned him into the most tragic and heartbreaking character ever written and holy shit I hate borderlands

#claptrap #borderlands #i have so many emotions about this dumb little robot #his story is so so miserable #even in the comics hes a goofy side character that waits patiently for his only friend to wake from a coma and ends up sacrificing his life #like why is claptrap so tragic? why is he the most miserable character in the whole series? #he's just a funky little guy
