Guilt

The rot was very inspired by that one scene and Akira and how gods turn into demons in Princess Mononoke. Which, I also thought was fitting because that's sorta what's happening in a symbolic sense kinda.

I've had the interpretation that the rot is a symbolic representation of Five Pebbles guilt [while ofc, still being his quite literal cancer], so that's what I'm trying to portray here

Moon 🤝 me

Finding the clinking of jewelry annoying apparently

I love your version of her to bits !

It is especially bad when your research partner refuses to acknowledge the research part of the deal and does this..

Void save her..

i seriously think saint is like the most deranged hateful violent freak ever but they were born w/ a birth defect and can't throw spears so instead they decided to purify their mind and soul in order to fucking effortlessly destroy everything in existence

[the-real-rain-world-confessions]

Time to be a bitter bitch and roast some iterator ships, i AM the fun police /jjJJJ

Sunstone, SRS/FP: the only one that makes a lot of sense in my opinion, but somehow their portrayal in fanon is absolute garbage so 2/10 (i personally consider them to be a 10 but i am judging the fanon versions). Pebbles is made into a helpless spineless baby and Suns just takes care of him idk what else to say. Their dynamic is heavily misunderstood often portraying them straight up as mentor/protege when in reality they're just not that

Trafficlights, NSH/SRS: very boring and plain, NSH is either a daddy dom or a cutesy little clown guy, both interpretations suck, while Suns is left with zero of their traits displayed in canon other than being anxious i guess, they're weirdly regal and arrogant in a lot of interpretations. Also largely yaoi-ified 0/10

Ragequit, NSH/FP: NSH doesn't like Pebbles and seemingly has little to no interest talking to him, on top of that likely based his entire perception of him on what Moon had to say about Pebbles. Pebbles is made into some tsundere tiny twink that blushes constantly and this is very common problem with his interpretations in general you guys can't understand him to save your life 0/10

Triple divorce or whatever the fuck SRS/FP/NSH is called: one heck of a dysfunctional polycule, considering that Sig and Pebbles straight up just don't like each other 0/10 Ragequit, trafficlights and sustone made shittier basically

Lilypad, NSH/LTTM: might be idk, i personally don't view their relationship as particularly romantic. Since I think they're good friends i give it a 6/10 even though them not being romantically involved with each other is much more appealing to me

Milkshake, UI/FP: how do you even come up with this did you play the game. Innocence was not helping Pebbles in the slightest by blackmailing the guy and the fact that Wind mentions that its likely an attempt to be mean says plenty. Although not much is known about Innocence it's safe to assume they do not like Pebbles or have any intentions to help him out. The yandere UI fandom stuff is ridiculous 0/10

Moonstone, LTTM/FP: im not into incest 0/10

Eclipse, SRS/LTTM: only exists because of a somewhat cool name

Pebbles/Straw: another nothing burger ship entirely dependant on one's characterization of Straw, not ranking it

Conclusion: 90% of the tumblr rw community needs to play the game

hi, hey. my name is hollow and i have opinions

can't guarantee this blog'll be at all active But i wanted a place to ramble and/or rant about my rain world interpretations (and, sometimes, how i dislike certain aspects of fanon, because im salty), along with a place to analyze certain aspects of the text . er. game. you know what i mean. also i just thought this url was good and wanted to use it for something (it is a mechanisms reference)

my pronouns are they/them

im a minor pls don't be weird

tagging system:

proship dni this is not ur land

!! while i may come across as aggressive at times, i do not condone harassment nor do i intend for my posts to be mean to anyone, including people i disagree with !!

i just struggle with tone and hold my opinions very strongly. also this is my blog and as such i post my unfiltered thoughts, as they are not directed at anyone and--if need be--you can just block me if i make you uncomfortable. in fact, you are actively encouraged to do so! i won't judge, lord knows i've blocked for less

🫵 FELLOW silly Sliver of Straw HEADCANONER????

I have been for ages hehe hoho

It started from me thinking of how someone that bets on lizard fights can and should be super giga silly, I have maaanyyyy headcanons on sos I love her sm!!

Here is some of my silly sliver content if you're interested!!

[x]- latest comic, smaller appearance

[x]- Moonie managing to fluster her <3

[x] Sliver headbanging

[x]- Sliver being an epic gaymer and more headbanging!

[x]- Silly explanation on why one of her antenna is broken

[x]- My first ever comic depicting her- sadly it's sketchy and unfinished, but if you enjoy the dynamic of her and Moon you might like it!

And lastly!

A less fun one, but since this is already a psuedo-masterpost for her here is this one [x]

#there was also some chibi art u can find through the tag #ALSO ALSO #all of my saint content is sliver of straw content too technically #since they are the same in this blog 100% of the time #have drawn a lot for that too! #hope this is fun and helpful anon!!! #ask #anonymous #the amount of rw ive drawn wows me sometimes i rlly love this game aaa

[snailfen]

7 and 25?

HIII SKITTY idk if you want this to be abt pokemon or rainworld, but youve said you like seeing my incomprehensible nonsense sooooooo! im going for rainworld cus choosing violence on pokemon opinions Scares Me (i still might do it if someone asks but ough. Scary)

7.) what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

hmm... cant think of one honestly! i can say there's a lotta interpretations im not fond of for characters like five pebbles, seven red suns, sliver of straw or some of the slugcats but Honestly. im a big boy. ive been a rw fan for a long time, ive been in fandoms longer than i should have, im long past letting fandoms ruin characters for me. fuck it we chill

25.) common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

im sick of hearing older fans complain about downpour actually. like... i know the influx of new fans is overwhelming, i know some things about the lore arent the best for some people! but its so exhausting to see people act gatekeepy about a game because of other older fans who made a fanproject (which was originally going to be FREE, people made this for FREE until videocult brought it in-house) which was a love-letter to this game. im sick of them treating it like some mod when it has been referred to as an official alternative canon.

maybe you enjoyed the days when the rain world tag was flooded with unrelated aesthetic posts and other fans were impossible to find, maybe you enjoyed the days where the only fandom was either the main world server, the subreddit, or your group of friends who all got into it at the same time, but buddy, i cannot understand being angry about your experience no longer being limited to those options.

i know the community might have been more tightly-knit to you when barely anyone knew about the game, but a fandom is ultimately a community of people who love a piece of media. newer fans belong here just as anyone else does. the best thing you can do is make newer fans feel as welcomed as you did.

[eliias-bouchard]

U were v nice in my asks so! Will u perhaps tell me abt Rain World lore 👀 (if you want to ofc :))

OOHOIHOOHOHOHOOHOHO YES I VERY MUCH WANT TO im going to use this an excuse to talk about my rw ocs because i love them dearly

so. rain world takes place in a world where death is never permanent. every creature - microorganisms and leviathians both - is stuck in a cycle, never capable of truly dying.

there was a civilisation on this planet referred to as 'the ancients'. the ancients drilled deep into the earth and discovered void fluid, which was capable of truly erasing something from the world, as well as being capable of producing significant power.

now, the ancients felt an obligation to the 'lesser beings' of the world; those that were not capable of ascension on their own. they could erase themselves with void fluid, but that wouldn't help the lesser beings (this is known as the 'great problem'; how to achieve total global ascension of all beings).

the ancients created iterators to solve this.

[id: an iterator can as seen from very far away. it's a supermassive, rectangular metal structure supported by multiple 'legs'. /end id]

this is an iterator can. iterators are biomechanical - they're robots, but they also have cells and dna and such. they're very complicated.

[id: an iterator puppet, a humanoid figure suspended on a long robotic 'arm', with wires coming out of their figure. /end id]

iterator puppets are what the iterator uses to speak to their citizens. this one is five pebbles! he's the guy in my pfp and i love him dearly.

because iterators need huge amounts of water to survive, the surface world quickly became harsh and unlivable, so the ancients built cities on top of iterators. also - this isn't explained in game but around the world you find shelters which are completely watertight, and protect you from the rain. i presume the ancients built these for the wildlife that still lived on the surface.

(also, small tidbit that'll become relevant later - the ancients created many 'purposed organisms', which were beings designed for a specific purpose. as far as i know they did this for everything that needed doing, rather than do anything by hand and/or automate it with purely mechanical machines.)

eventually, the ancients all decided to ascend, leaving behind vast iterator populations (moon says there could be thousands of iterators; because iterators 'breathe out' as much water as they take in, the last couple generations of iterators could be placed almost completely freely because water was available nearly everywhere) still trying to solve the great problem.

at some point an iterator called sliver of straw broadcasted the 'triple affirmative' - that the solution was found, that the solution was portable, and that the solution was technically implementable and generally applicable. she is also the only iterator ever confirmed to be dead, which is not an easy feat.

multiple groups split off from the ensuing chaos. the two we know about are 'triangulators' - those who believe the solution itself is dangerous, and should be inferred without being directly known, and 'sliverists' - those who believe death /is/ the solution, and that the self destruction taboo should be destroyed. (the self destruction taboo makes it impossible for iterators to self destruct, due to genetic code in every one of their cells.)

so! that's the basics. now onto my ocs

glimmer of sea salt (she/any) is an iterator situated atop a lake. she's technically a part of the local group headed by stormclouds overhead, but due to her distance from the rest of them her communications are not strong enough to talk to them directly; instead any messages must be passed on via her neighbour, three tears of a fox. glimmer is also a triangulator. she's generally quite calm, speaking bluntly and clearly and not getting openly excited over much. when she's upset or angry she does start to openly express emotion.

[id: whiteboard drawing of an iterator puppet wearing an orange and blue cloak. their face has a circle w/ 3 lines coming out of it. on the sides of their face are two triangles, with things that look like antenna coming out of the top. /end id]

here is the she <3

two scavenger clans got into a war on and in her can over who would be allowed to live on/in her can. she made a purposed organism, the protector, to go and drive the scavs away through any means necessary.

[id: whiteboard drawing of a slugcat (a four-legged mammal with a cat-like face, and a slug-like tail) holding a spear, with three spears on their back. they have visible fangs, a bite taken out of one of their ears, and oval-shaped eyebrows above their eyes that make it appear as though they are angry. /end id]

the protector is so very autism btw.

so after it got rid of the scavs, it saw three tears of a fox's can and was like "huh that looks neat lemme go check it out" and immediately set out on a journey (where glimmer had inteded for it to live out its life as a housecat.)

SO. three tears of a fox.

[id: an ms paint drawing of an iterator puppet. they look upset or bored. there are red-coloured tentacles coming out of one of their eyes (of which they have three; two in the normal position and one in the middle of their forehead. the last eye is the only one with a pupil, which is cat-like.) there are two circles on the side of their face, with ears similar to a fennec fox's. there are two triangles on either side of their face, on their cheeks. on their cloak is a symbol made of an upside-down v, a line directly down from the middle, and two lines going to the side. /end id]

[id: a whiteboard drawing of the same iterator, without the tentacles, and with one of her ears pierced. /end id]

i love her so much she is HORRENDOUS. so she HATES the ancients with a passion. i hc that there are taboos preventing iterators from expressing this hatred (if they even develop it) or harming iterators. however, fox got damaged somehow, and whilst fixing herself, she accidentally managed to get rid of these taboos. she immediately attempted to put all of her citizens in a death loop, which caused a mass evacuation event to glimmer's can (which wasn't intended to have a city on it, so they arrived to like. 2 hastily built houses yknow). fox had managed to trap almost 1/3 of her citizens however, and it was many cycles of negotiation between glimmer and fox before glimmer could convince her to let them go.

i think because of the way she got rid of the taboos, fox is like. full of hatred. all of the time. she can feel emotions other than hatred, but she doesn't like acknowledging them, and she especially doesn't like others acknowledging them. the other iterators in the local group don't necessarily like talking to fox because of how tricky she can be to talk to. glimmer is the only iterator that fox allows to acknowledge that fox feels emotions other than hatred. fox is also trans and she and glimmer are in gay love.

fox also has a purposed organism!!

[id: an ms paint drawing of a slugcat which is noticeably furry. there are circles on their tail, as well as webbing on their tail to aid with swimming. beside this is a close-up of one of their paws, showing that their paws are also webbed. /end id]

this is cub! cub is a bit smaller than the average slugcat, and purposed to be able to design iterator cans, specifically to function as communication between glimmer and fox. cub is also very very nervous, and got super attached to fox, whereas the protector was not very attached to glimmer.

i don't have any art of him but stormclouds overhead is the local group senior. due a malfunction in the processes which create rain, his can became damaged and parts of it collapsed before he was able to fix the malfunction. a clan of slugcats moved in and he was like "well, making purposes organisms out of these Beastes is all the rage nowadays. maybe ill give it a try" and he makes his librarians! he gives them like. harnesses which allow him to access a camera on them. they can also edit and read pearls (a form of data storage) at will!! have you seen that video of when the person put a camera on their cat? it's like that.
