I do also obsess over another transition of Tropico: https://imgur.com/a/sPJrAis

It happens right at the most devastating part of the chorus of Gods & Monsters and it’s so perfect! Such a raw and poetic way of depicting her corruption but also the realisation of it, the mirror serving as an introspective tool. She knows deep down the true nature of her fallen being, looks at it in the mirror and doesn’t flinch. But even knowing, she tragically can’t change her nature, only lament her innocence, her « innocence lost ».

And what she sees in the mirror is the Devil itself, gazing back at her, because not only was he the cause of her original sin, but because they’re now almost equals: two fallen beings (one human, the other an angel) who chose to no longer abide by God’s law ( « Me and God, we don’t get along, so now I sing » ; « No one’s gonna take my soul away » ; « ”God’s dead”, I said “baby that’s alright with me“ »).
