Tagg: My gender is knives. That's it. Just knives.
Nimbalo: Yeah, but like, what's in your pants?
Tagg: I want you to look me in the eye and take a wild fucking guess.

tagg was supposed to be brutal and merciless and god’s perfect killer. but he wasnt. and when he went to redwall and they recognized who he used to be, in the shape of his face and the birthmark on his hand and the way he spoke- they took his name and they took his knife and they took his tattoos and even his birthmark.
“his real name, his true name, his only name is deyna” his mother says.
skipper gives his knife to the otter fixer.
the otter fixer takes his tattoos and his birthmark.
none of them ask him. none of them know anything about him except that he was one of them for a day- his first day alive- and they think that they have the right.
why didn’t he rage. why did he smile and thank them when he woke up. tagg grew up in a way designed to make him hard and violent and angry. and he is. but that isnt all he is. and the redwallers ignore who he is for who he would have been.
how does he smile when he sees them? how does he stay with them? tagg ran when sawney asked too much of him. why does he stay at redwall?
tagg was violent. he fought gruven and fletch. the juska were all terrified of him. that couldnt all have been from the reputation of taggerung- they watched him grow up. they knew he hadnt killed or tortured before. why were they afraid of him. why werent the redwallers
i cant stop thinking about tagg waking up in the otter fixers hut. his knife is gone. he is unrecognizable to himself. and nobody uses his name. how does he stand it. why doesnt he go with skipper back to redwall and take nimbalo and just leave
#leo.txt#taggerung#redwall#family wasnt that important to him. he wasnt tied to family. if it was he wouldve latched on to sawney rath#he met nimbalo and said yes this one. and nobody else compared

all I can think about today is how bad I wanna see a sequel to Taggerung where he's older and him and Nimbalo work out their traumas together and unwittingly fall in love and also along the way there's an insane amount of violence because it's a Redwall story

“Where's the point in fighting and slaying if you can make a friend out of anybeast instead of a foe?”
― Brian Jacques, Taggerung
Some more of my absolute favorite Redwall characters, Tagg and Nimbalo.

“Why do you tell so many lies, Nimbalo? Don’t you ever tell the truth?”
“Truth? What’s the truth, eh? Just a pack of lies made up by other beasts so you’ll believe ‘em. Of course I always tell lies. What’s wrong wid that, Tagg?”

Tagg: I can’t believe I made it to fifteen seasons old.
Tagg: I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about what’s next.
Nimbalo: Sixteen.
Tagg: Thanks mate.

There's no one following this blog yet, but I have thoughts to liveblog about The Taggerung, so I'm gonna do that. I'm not finished rereading it all yet but I'm getting there.
I loved this book as a kid! I understand potential reasons why some choices were made in the narrative. BUUUUT I'm still gonna critique it and analyze it. I want to try and do so in a way that's still in-line with Kid's Book Reading Level though.
So regarding a theme of Healthy and Unhealthy Family Interactions
Firstly, oh boy, I want an entire section which shows Tagg's relationship with Sawny and how the former managed to come out of it still Pure Of Heart.
Because either:
Life in the Juska Clan wasn't that bad, meaning vermin can be Normal
Or life in the Juska Clan was Very Bad, which is canon but really could use the added detail of: Tagg comes out of this with some Issues
Hell, in the latter, it could give him stuff to bond further with Nimbalo. The message doesn't even have to go that deep into it: "Hey kids, sometimes people you regard as family will hurt you, but you'll find other loving people if you keep being true to yourself."
This also comes up in Tagg going all white savior on meeting the pygmy shrews who Just Don't Know Any Better than to sacrifice a creature to the eel. It was implied that, somehow, the shrews got the idea that their food won't come back unless they do this evil act, but it was framed as their own silliness, ie They Don't Know Any Better. Instead, the eel maybe could have been shown manipulating and threatening them. Showing us this can point us towards an altered message of: "Hey kids, sometimes people you love (the shrews) are bad to you (the chieftain's daughter) because they're also being abused (the eel), but it doesnt give them the right to do bad."
We could have multiple examples to emphasize similar but different family issues along Tagg's journey (the watervoles, Madd, the elderly flatlands shrew, etc).
Once again I love these books and this isn't a bashing post - they formed a great part of my childhood and I'm grateful to their existence tbh. This is more a thought exercise in how it could have been and how I personally would have liked it. I'm enjoying my revisit and it's giving me a lot to think about! (Also, the audiobooks are very well-acted)
Feel free to share your thoughts as well if you see this 🦦

Tagg was bi. Nimbalo was gay. They fell in love and moved into Redwall together.
Seriously though they had such potential

Some old Redwall sketches I'm putting here for reference
I love Tagg and Nimbalo, their friendship is precious. Which is why I draw Nimbalo like he's about to kick his best friend's teeth in every time
#ref for later#tagg#taggerung#the taggerung#nimbalo#nimbalo the slayer#sawney wrath#deyna#i guess#though that name never seemed to fit him#otter#mouse#ferret#my post#my art#oh and that 'aye aye cheiftain' bit was ment as a jab at how very Nature-leaning these books tend towards on the Nature vs Nurture argument#redwall#my redwall art
