“I think my mom used Lion to carry her things around, like a living bag.”
“[Pearls are] for standing around, and looking nice, and holding your stuff for you.”
Possibility: Rose created Lion to fill the gap left when she told Pearl to be her own gem, to stop serving her, to live her own life. He was kept a secret because if Pearl knew Rose still needed help, she’d insist on providing that help herself.
So she evacuated from Pearl all of the things of hers she’d been carrying, claiming she could take care of it herself, but having that much in her gem stressed her out, tired her, so she made Lion to do it, and kept telling Pearl she was fine. Because she was. She had Lion.
5 photos this time! (I’m trying to limit how much I take because I still don’t know where I stand legally and I don’t wanna spoil the whole book, so I’m pacing myself haha)
