Frothing at the mouth what do you MEAN pearl gave Scott a life in ll for their alliance to be sealed oh myg od THAT MAKES EVERYTHING SO MUCH WORSE AND SO MUCH BETTER

#pearl literally gave him part of her life and they ended up soulmates and he REJECTED her even still like. ow #what fascinates me about the divorce quartet and specifically pearl and Scott is how more than any particular slight the thing that stops #them from coming together is their stubbornness. scott was prolly too harsh on pearl but he’s not backing down no way besides she’s lost it #now and is hostile right back and so they hurt themselves to hurt each other and build up more and more animosity #cleo concedes a bit to martyn bc she knows it’s practical for survival but scott and pearl are the messiest of messy friendship breakups #you witnessed in hs because they’re both (mostly scott tho ngl) are so STUBBORN #and with how he and cleo seemed to be so eager to go off from their soulmates maybe it’s also like. it doesn’t really matter who their #soulmate was. at that point scott was sold on the two seasons in the making full time alliance with cleo and vice versa #they wanted to cause problems on purpose and they found the perfect reason to split from fate even if it was a tad of an overreaction #pearl and martyn were collateral. and with the context of what she did for him in last life you could argue she’s one of the reasons he won #at all by giving the yellow name a life. so no wonder it stings so bad they’ve done so much for each other. SHES done so much for him and #he throws her away over a nether excursion? did their bond really mean that little? ough. ough man #double life #pearlescentmoon #scott smajor #last life
