Five Pebbles is so funny. Shoutout to characters who learn to prioritize compassion but still have the same deep-rooted self-actualization and self-worth issues they always had. Shoutout to characters who use compassion as a bludgeon to hurt themselves with under the guise of self-sacrifice. Shoutout to the guilt that drives one to heap blame upon themself until they feel the only way to atone is through punishment. That’s just as much about inflicting misery upon yourself as it is about helping the person you hurt. Get therapy king.
#rain world#rw five pebbles#rw fp#rw spoilers#This is kind of how I’ve always viewed the rarefraction cell thing tbh. Like I love love love that Moon’s initial reaction is negative.#You don’t understand how much I love that.#But yeah I like Five Pebbles arc. It’s not a fully healthy one imo? Not that his starting point was healthy either.#‘Instead of making myself miserable under the guise of the great problem#I will instead make myself miserable under the guise of rectifying my mistakes.’#Truly what a guy.#none of this is meant to undercut the sacrifice he made btw. it’s a genuinely sweet gesture#but I think not enough people acknowledge it’s also not necessarily a. healthy progression for him mentally
