crow releasing their pov sent me back into the mindset of thinking about how their weapons are SO PROMINENT in parallel life so ramble time! smack me if i get any info wrong i need to rewatch parallel life i forgot some details abt it

so a little while back i rambled in tibby's inbox with an analysis of crow's sword, ghost slayer, and the 'broken hearts club' that was formed in ep 4. but while watching crow's pov today, i had a realization that somehow i never really noticed pitchfork was crow's weapon?? meaning that both of crow's main weapons have symbolism???? so im gonna yap about these two weapons now (mainly the axe)

pitchfork is the diamond axe that crow used to kill e in ep 3, and the same weapon that was used by e in ep 5. ghost slayer is the diamond sword that crow named after teaming with the polycule, which after her death was passed on to e, and eventually tibby.

the contrast between how ghost slayer is used and how pitchfork is used within the plot is wild. ghost slayer is more of an emotional attack for people like tibby and e: where it never actually killed anyone, but harmed them mentally as it got passed around after crow + ghost's deaths already affected people. pitchfork, however, was MUCH more of a harm as it was used for actual kills against e and middy. with ghost slayer comes mourning, and with pitchfork comes betrayal.

you can see me talk more about ghost slayer in the ask i sent a while back (may rewrite that in the future) but pitchfork is shaped around betrayal. crow took ghost killing her the second as a betrayal. she was betrayed, and wanted revenge. she kills e with pitchfork out of her anger from the betrayal but then teams with e and the polycule. however in ep 5, under ghostfoam's influence, e kills crow. another betrayal for crow. two of the people she'd put so much trust into despite knowing they weren't truly trustworthy. despite ghostfoam promising to kill her and "make the crow curse real". despite e having just teamed with ghostfoam, pretty much already betraying the polycule (besides crimson!) in the process. after crow's death, e gets the axe. replaces their own with it. and the next episode, uses the axe to kill middy. yet again, betrayal. it's like a hex on this axe.

i cant quite find a good word to label the symbolism of pitchfork itself but i also find it interesting the influence ghost and crow still have after they die. whether its them directly being a devil on someone's shoulder or just kind of. always having a piece of them being there since their weapons were used for so long. if i remember correctly, e was influenced mainly by ghostfoam, but also partially by crow to kill pickle and emerald with the portal trap. you can also see crow in chat every now and then during ep 4 & ep 5. of course ghostfoam leaves a big influence after/through his death, but we don't see crow's death directly influence much other than the polycule's trust of e (which was already pretty low for some polycule members...). crow is more of how i mentioned influence through the weapons. influence through the mental toll ghost slayer hit tibby with. influence through the axe that was used by the betrayed then being used to betray.

someone remind me to do a full analysis on parallel life crow because OH MY GODDDD todays crow episode changed my brain chemistry & my view on crow's parallel life character in general i NEED to talk about it more in the future

also sorry if this sounds a bit out of order or doesnt make sense i yapped too much and then changed the paragraph order and i cant tell if it sounds good still

hi its cc ramble time yayayyy! anyway the differences and parallels (haha) between the two duels in parallel life are honestly so interesting to me (pickle vs. scott in ep 3 and withersun in ep 4)

mind you im mainly gonna talk about pickle's pov in this so go watch that

so they both have that level of intensity to them - a red name showing interest in wanting to kill a green/yellow, and then both parties settling on a fair fight. and again in both scenarios, it's a red risking their season just for that kill to satiate their bloodlust, without their soulmate's say in it at all - in fact, emerald even points out the fact that pickle didn't give him any say in that

now i will say a minor difference with pickle and scott's fight is that it wasn't downright "oh lets fight just axes and diamond gear" - which it probably couldve been if scott hadn't initiated combat first, since pickle's idea was like "oh i'll walk you home and then we fight!" but instead scott starts the fight in the middle of the forest during night

but i think the biggest difference between these two fights and their impacts is because of how the red in both situations were seen at the moment. ghostfoam was seen as an almost server-wide enemy, especially at the time of the duel because it's when even tibby and ghost are pretending to hate each other. meanwhile pickle is more of a server-wide friend. him and emerald wanted to be seen as the friendly reds so that they could backstab later and even before the fight he's talking to scott being like "well i'm not quite allies but im basically allies with the whisps... and charlie... and the polycule" BASICALLY naming off nearly the whole server to scott, explaining how scott can't really "help him get a kill on someone else" because he's friends with too many people.

the funny thing about this is besides having different impacts and stuff, it still follows the same basic building blocks or storyline - a red says they wanna kill a non-red (specifically in front of other people. in pickle's case, one yellows and two reds - luca, haunting, & emerald. in ghost's case, one yellow and one red - tibby & crow), the non-red agrees as long as it's an actual 1v1 battle. the red is victorious in both scenarios, and after the battle the other person comes back and the two talk about helping each other. now this is where it differs again, as scott begins asking pickle for help since all of the polycule wants ghost dead (i think scott uses specifically ezra and middy as examples?), whereas after the withersun fight it's less of requesting help and moreso ghost telling e that they have to stick to the deal that was made. (queerbait yaoi hooray!)

honestly this ramble was a little smaller than i wanted it to be, mainly because i took a nap in the middle of writing it and completely lost my train of thought... 😭 (i also didnt read over this after writing it so some might be a but messily explained sorryyyy)

and i know i could totally just be reaching with some of this comparing stuff but parallel life has taken over my brain i cant help it

i might add to this depending on what pickle's ep 4 looks like when it gets posted since it's not out, but for now this is what i have for you!! big fumbs bup 👍 (blame robin for that being put in my vocabulary)
