tr!Water tells tr!Pangi about the Thing she used to have for tr!Bad and he goes “I should try that sometime” girl what

I had this whole post in my drafts about how I don’t think tr!Water ever had true romantic feelings for tr!Bad, she just craved the exclusivity that’s typically associated with standard romance (aka monogamy). So I’m just gonna post it now.
She’s not well-versed on romance, but the version she knows best is the fairytale version. It’s the version where tr!Bad favors her above his friends because that’s just how it would work if they were in love (in her mind, anyway - this is almost certainly not how it would’ve actually gone down if her confession had been accepted).
It’s the version the knights would talk of as they invaded her cave - their mission dedicated to one very special princess somewhere. If she could just become that very special princess, that significant other, than she’d have actual justification for being possessive (NOT ACTUALLY but that might be her thought process). She’d have justification for wanting tr!Bad to place her on some special high tier above everyone else (a tier that he just does not have).
Basically I don’t think that tr!Water feels romantic attraction and therefore she’s easily made jealous, rather she’s easily made jealous and therefore she assumed her feelings must be romantic. If that makes sense.
Well I was half right

haven’t entirely been paying attention but if this motherfucker falls for the same trick 3 times
I don’t like that stream title
#I don’t think tr!Bad should succumb to corruption. it’s a liitttle overdone and his character should definitely know better by now#also there’s no stakes. the cure is known. for all we know he can opt out as easily as he can opt in. what’s the point#what’s the narrative purpose besides reducing the character’s autonomy slightly#and making him ourple#the ourple part is the only upside

#maybe this is cope because I don’t want to watch her mental health deteriorate#because she’s now futilely pining AND struggling with her dysphoria#the way she reacted when Pangi logged on makes me think the whole jealousy problem is far from solved#that along with the fact that she still has ‘win back her treasure’ on her to do list despite seemingly having done that already#and the reason she probablys still struggling with it#is because she’s attributed it to romance when that’s NOT EVEN THE PROBLEM#maybe now that she’s done the equivalent of slamming straight into a brick wall at mach 3 in regards to that#she’ll explore a different path and maybe make more friends but probably not lmao#tr!water#watermunch#waterhalo#holywater duo#disclaimer: amatonormativity bad.
