WAIT tell me more about life series Gempearl…they sound so toxic and intriguing…i must know
!!!! Life series gempearl oh they mean everything to meee
they’re narrative parallels, basically, so Pearl in double life (season 2) had a persona(?) called “Scarlet Pearl” because she was brokenhearted that her soulmate (soctt) left her, and went a lil bit insane with lonliness and whatnot, and because she won that series, Scarlet Pearl became something everyone feared/saw her as, even though yk she’s usually not like that,, while Gem also has a similar thing because she’s one of the best pvp-ers and new, plus in secret life (season 5) she had a task to kill everyone and almost succeeded, so everyone ALSO views her as something worse than she is.
the difference there is that Pearl doesn’t quite like being Scarlet Pearl, that is something that was born from desperation and being on her last life, while for Gem she likes being overestimated/seen as a slightly crazy pvper :) and gem also expects the same from pearl, and expects her being scarlet pearl to be something that’s fun.
so they have that going on, and gem’s character in the life series is a very socially adapt player, and she often downplays others to make herself seem better, (similar to scott but thats a whole nother thing-) and sometimes sees pearl as a wet cat lmao
pearl uses that (being viewed like a pathetic lil wet cat by players) to her advantage too like no one in those life games is sane
and and and secret life finale happened, where pearl “betrayed’ gem by 2v1 ing her with scar ultimately leading to her death/elimination (i put quotes around it cause some people don’t see it as a proper betrayal cause they were never properly teamed) and thag came over to wild life (season 6) where gem was still angry at pearl for the past betrayal, leading to them having a toxic ex situation for a bit in that season
like in summary they always wind up near each other (wether as unofficial allies or allies or actual teammates) and also end up hurting each other cause of they way they are and it’s so intriguing to me cause what do you mean you two always end up near each other and WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE PAST FOLLOWS YOU (gem special thing, she’s i think a jumper between timelines/worlds and therefore remembers past seasons easier? The unofficial but still official cause it’s a creator’s thought au is the eyes and ears au where the games are created by the Watchers and they control the players in a way so they don’t remember past seasons (so they can like, not continue the same ally/enemy thing every season) so that plays into that, and the world jumper (?) things is also gem’s au on it (esmp (empires) and life series and hermitcraft, or something i thinks) <so pearl either doesn’t expect gem to still be mad, or doesn’t know why she’s mad at her
yeah i love them a lot they make me sick
