#her sadness when the mounders were all gone....

GUYS IVE GONE INSANE WHAT A SEASON!!!

The entire time I kept thinking, "He's gonna be gone soon. Scar. Right after Jimmy. He'll be gone." But he stayed. Through wither and warden, round and round, somehow this dumpster fire made it. Somehow he made it to the finale. He made it. When all that was left was the Mounders, the Band, and the lonesome trader, I thought they'd turn on him. But he survived. To the top three. I thought for sure he'd blow himself up. Fall down a pit. He survived. I've got so many feelings about this. He won.

of course pearl goes for the one who hurts her, she hurt herself to make her soulmate suffer, so of course shes going to find one who will hurt her, who will kill her without remorse. and isnt that all it takes to want to be friends? they want to be friends so bad, they want an alliance! even when pearl was being killed by gem, gem said she could stop it. even after gem killed her TWICE. and they have one! the murderous duo on that camel, in their red skins fighting everyone who isnt allied to them but then everyone else dies, and its just them. they have no choice to be against each other. they have no choice but to fight, because its mounders and scar against the band, theyre all thats left. gem is so sad when she agrees with pearl that, no, she doesnt want to do this. they have to fight and they KNOW it. but. even when they ARE fighting, they dont target each other. its teammates being picked off first. they have their moment of looking at each other, of bows being ready to be drawn, and shaking their head, no. they dont want to do this. but fate forces their hand, they HAVE to fight, because their teammates are dead, their alliances are dead and its only them. its only them and scar and pearl wants scar to win, more than she wants gem to. pearl chases her down, yelling that gem is making her do this while gem argues that shes not making pearl do anything, so close to another fight, except it was gem hunting pearl down that time except this time its "What are you doing?! We were friends!" "I don't know Gem, I don't know!" i truly believe that if grian hadnt taken as many hearts from gem as he did, if gem had killed scar instead of gem being killed by him... that pearl would have given herself over to gem. oh, shed have gone down swinging im sure, but gem is better at PVP, and pearl... she didnt want to win! she wanted her friends to win. and without her mounders, without scar... it would have been her and gem, after everything they'd been through. and gem could have taken all three of her lives and it is DESTROYING me
