post im sure everyone had read or written themselves before, but can we talk about how fucked up it must have been for pebbles to be activated after his construction was finished, and how one of the first things he must have learned is how he is a replacement for someone else, and an unwanted one at that. how the concept of him was hated before he was even completed, how he was attached to another iterator because he was meant to function as her double with a different coat of paint.
he activates into a world that already knows and hates him for something he had no control in. ancients hate him because thats not their iterator, thats not their home. iterators hate him because thats not their friend, thats the new shiny thing meant to make her obsolete.
his citizens aren't his, theyre hers. his systems, his water supply, his grounds, they arent his. theyre hers. he was just placed here afterwards, an intruder into somebody elses home despite how welcoming she is. imagine having a reputation like that before youve even begun to live.
why wouldnt he be bitter? how long does it take for anyone to see him as something other than "moons little replacement with a bad attitude we didnt ask for"? how long does it take for someone to treat him as more than an extension of moon? was the name erratic pulse only to talk in sliverist chats, or maybe used way before that, to escape everything attached to the name five pebbles?
maybe if he was the next one to find the secret to ascension, he would be looked at differently. he would do something that moon has not. his peers speak sliver of straws name with reverence and respect, and maybe, if he followed in her footsteps or at least got close, he wouldn't be five pebbles, little sibling and replacement to moon. he would be five pebbles, the second iterator ever to send out the triple affirmative.
this isnt a "wah pebbles is innocent and can do no wrong!!" post. i just think its interesting to consider exactly the kind of world pebbles was brought into. how he must have been seen before he was even more than an empty metal box.
i think he was so reckless, so attached to suns, so avoidant of moon, and so unwilling to stop his work even when it risked moons life, because he needed to prove that he was worth something as his own iterator. prove it to everyone else, or maybe just himself.
he may be "godlike in comparison", but that kind of treatment would give anyone horrible self esteem issues.
[A pale pearl, well preserved in a waterproof case. It’s metadata reads “SHORT OBSERVATION NOTES 035 - EELS”]
Approximately 6 different variations of deep sea eels have been sighted, of varying rarities.
Large mouthed eels
Small eyed eels
Spiny eels
Bioluminescent eels
A form of eel I have dubbed “angler eels”
Lunging eels
Large mouthed eels - observations
Large jaws, taking up a large portion of their body
Dark in coloration, not much variation seen in color or pattern
No noticeable teeth, likely swallows prey whole or holds it open to collect marine snow
Small eyed eels - observations
Most likely blind, may locate prey through scent or is sensitive to movement in water
Is hostile towards anything it perceives
Lighter coloration on its lower half
Spiny eels - observations
Fins have short spines, possibly for defense from predators
Firmer spines also located on head
Hunting behaviors include trying to corner and pin prey, using head spines to impale it aftwards
Quick swimmer compared to most other eels
Bioluminescent eels - obersations
Scavengers and slower swimmers
Glow, possibly to scare predators or to attract others of its species, perhaps both
Can present many colors, though majority appear to be blue
Angler eels - observations
Has a small light lure on its head, can flicker and change in brightness
Size of the light itself seems to vary slightly between individuals
Large teeth and mouth, almost similar to previously listed large mouthed eels
Very uncommon to come across, I’d wonder if they were going extinct, if not for the cycles
Lunging eels - observations
Very slow movement unless chasing prey
Hunts with some sort of pump propulsion, appearing to pause to suck in water to then expel it and launch itself towards prey
Longest observed eel, adapted to be streamlined to ensure speed at lunge
Expels enough pressure to reach velocities of approximately 48-56 km/h
Optical data to be stored in a separate pearl
Semtinel.
