“They never left the desert” “they never left dogwarts” I’m still stuck in Pearl’s tower from double life

Here is ALL my hermit a day may as im ending my part early

what a colorful bunch, i wish i couldve done the entire month but burn out got the better of me, im just glad i made it to half way!

tell me which one is your favorite!

I’ve always interpreted Scott’s sacrifice at the end of Double Life as a kindness (or at least both Pearl and Scott saw it that way when it happened). 

Even though Pearl doesn’t want to win anymore because she doesn’t like the loneliness of being the last one standing, during Double Life, she did want to win. However, I think the reason Pearl valued winning over not being alone in Double Life was because she believed there was something about her that made her inherently alone. She had given up on not being alone so she wanted to win. And I think Scott’s sacrifice here partially broke her out of that mindset because she saw Scott as an enemy at this point and genuinely did not expect anything from him, so the act of kindness basically coming out of nowhere made her rethink the idea that it was her against the world. (Which makes it a bit of a catch-22, huh, Pearl wants to win because she believes she has to be alone, someone shows her she doesn’t have to be alone by helping her win)

On Scott’s side, I do think he was trying to do something kind for Pearl but also I don’t think this decision was all that specific to Pearl, like I think he would’ve done this for anyone he liked at all. Like I’ve seen people read this as a guilt thing and as an attempt at cruelty as well, but I don’t really see it. Given that he became self-sacrifice georg in the next two seasons, I think this decision was less specific to Pearl and more the first instance of a pattern of behavior. I think this was more Scott realizing how much he didn’t like being alone. With Cleo dead and Pearl coming to fight him, he realized he doesn’t really have any motivation to fight anymore. On the other hand, Scott figures Pearl really did want to win. So it just made sense to give it to her.

I also don’t think it was intended to be cruel either. Like I don’t think Scott would have considered that Pearl wouldn’t have enjoyed being the last one standing either. Like sure, Pearl had complained a lot all season about being alone but I still don’t think Scott would have thought she’d be upset about it. For one, Pearl was clearly trying to win so why would she be upset about it? For two, I don’t necessarily think Scott has the most objective view of Pearl in the first place. Like I think Scott’s view of Pearl is a bit warped because from his perspective, if Pearl really didn’t want to be alone, she wouldn’t be acting the way she does. She acts like she’s upset that her and Scott aren’t friends but spends her time antagonizing him. She says she has other friends but never seems to spend time with them. She betrays her only solid alliance in the endgame to try to join a more powerful group. So I think by the end of Double Life, Scott didn’t really believe Pearl cared that much about her relationships and thus, she should enjoy winning.

(To be clear, I don’t think she betrayed Scott with her decision to leave because she clearly communicated her intentions to leave before doing so. But Pearl was explicitly allied with Cleo and Martyn who she did not communicate with and is now trying to join a group that is trying to kill them. Even if she never succeeded in joining that group, she clearly intended to betray them)
