this guy in the ama gets it give him a raise PEBBLES IS WAY TOO MISUNDERSTOOD
I don't think pebbles is an "angsty teen" at all, and that downpour just wrote him kinda shittily. In vanilla he's a somewhat introverted guy who trying to explore ideas and research things considered taboo. He argues against the status quo not to be rebellious, but to try and open himself and others to different possibilities.
He's not constantly going on about how he's "misunderstood", he makes his arguments and he does it very effectively
It just sucks so badly because Pebbles isn't just some guy who's always an asshole.
He speaks to the slugcat with brutal honesty and authority. You're nothing but a bug to him, interrupting his work, but he spares a moment of his time to give you directions and the most assistance he can.
Yes he's very impatient, and can't properly communicate his emotions with Suns- who is probably not even prepared for it in the first place. His desperation and belief that he can just brute force this whole thing is what caused it. Not his arrogance. Not his disregard for Moon. Not because he's some angsty teen that needs to be disciplined
I'm so upset about how fanonized he is- ever since I stopped looking at downpour and just purely thought about vanilla, I've grown to love him so much
I'm not even trying to be a vanilla puritan, I think downpour did a good job at giving him actual interests, and dialogue unrelated to his emotions or other iterators all actually somewhat SOUND like him. Just wish they didn't treat him so terribly. That's a fucking grown ass man!

originally was going to do a simple jelly you eat, but then I someone do a giant jelly for this and got a really good idea! I'm proud of how I did the water :3 also bonus points if you can spot the watcher
annoying to understand everything but it's the only way I could think of thats readable
for clarity by 'has not met' for sos, means they have not spoken to them, most iterators do know sos
also my oc is there, she's the purple one that's madly in love with looks to the moon
this was just a quick art for rwam just forgot to post it, also in the doodle in the top corner is my oc which I ship with moon, I'll post about them eventually, their name is shards of whisper!!.
sunstone canon trust ( feed the delusions )
yes it's messy sigh, at the time I didn't have the energy to do a full drawing so yeah :((
also I'm gonna be posting rw art month less cuz I'm taking a break.
TW - mild gore, bright colours
this was going to be for day 17 of rainworld art month but uh, I feel like it slightly misses the prompt.
was fun to draw tho, this is the first time I've drawn a scav and liked the way I drew them, I promised I'm not biased because they're dead though lol, might do some doodles of them later some point, not dead
rainworld watcher shitpost and some comments \/
HEAVY SPOILERS BELOW
watcher lore meme bc I cannot cope with how rainworld (as the cycles ) ends
you're telling me EVERYTHING just turns to mush? everything is destroyed because of one iterator?. it would have to be one crazy butterfly effect ig.
idk I'm biased cuz it's pebbles and I'm still processing everything too. but honestly I just want to go back to my cosy au where the rot doesn't happen and sunstone make out sessions and its a happy ending 💔
also don't get me wrong the watcher dlc is great btw
sorry for lack of posts, haven't been feeling the best this week :((
also last one features my oc if ur confused lol
I love them I LOVE THEM I haven't drawn them in a while too
my thoughts on watcher in its ENTIRETY
\/
MAJOR SPOILERS
also some watcher art I forgot to post
the watcher. was one fuck ton of a roller coaster. from the excitement of opening the game, to the annoyingly slow progress, to the absolute devastation of the throne and unfortunate evolution. to finally. the first ending. the past ending
I struggled heavily throughout the campaign, progress feels impossible and gameplay wise it's not the best, but it does make up for it lore wise.
I was absolutely devastated over the future ending and Prince and the rot taking over. but now I've taken the time to think I think it's interesting, I at least believe prince is interesting. the rot trying to replicate an iterator, as that's where it's dna is based. and even more cooler, in unfortunate evolution where the rot replicates VOID WORMS. it's such an interesting concept, but it makes SENSE. iterators are powered by VOID FLUID, of course the rot would also imitate it.
as for the past ending. seeing this ending definitely shifted my view in the watcher entirely, and I don't think without it I would enjoy the watcher the way I do now, it's a perfect contrast to the future ending. you get to see the ancients and how they lived. the echo talks about how they were raised with other children by multiple people! overall, gameplay, the watcher is frustrating and slow and so, so much backtracking without any knowledge of where to go, but lore wise and how it's story is shown? absolutely beautiful. to the point it did almost cry lol.
also I believe the past ending takes place on pebbles! the pearls on the shelves are the same colours as the ones in his chamber! but there is definitely no solid proof. I hope the future updates add onto this side of the timeline more, and we can see how they lived more
rw lore... rw headcannons.. five pebbles... my beloved I'm open to small doodle suggestions or asks!!
