hey....

Made a different version :D

No one is safe from me, not even the lord of the flies

Important to note that not only did he see his friends die, but he saw his friends die by the hands of another kid he used to consider his friend and that he deeply cared about.

And not only the death and the contemplation of that loss of innocence but also the betrayal, for all the kids that were rooting for him but again, some that he considered friends. The most blatant example is Sam and Eric, and while it is true that they were forced to betray Ralph, in his eyes it was still betrayal.

Also I consider that not enough people talk about how he was in a hostile environment where he couldn't experience grief in a healthy way and that probably backfired later on in his life.

Pd:Lele you have no idea how happy I'm that you are doing deep analysis of lotf <3

Not enough people talk about the trauma Ralph would have as well due to what happens in the islands fr. Like Jack of course has some severe problems as well, but Ralph watches multiple friends die, kids his own age and younger be overtaken by the situation, committing extremely cruel actions that no child should watch.

Besides the fact he would not clearly grasp and comprehend the deepness of what he's been through until a later age.

He also experiences fear, abandonment and confusion in a really extreme way; watching how most of the kids end up leaving for Jacks team, knowing that Jack is acting in a way he does not approve off (yes I know it's not jacks fault and it's all commentary, but I'm talking about Ralph's perspective as a child and as a later on adult).

They all have that fear and confusion, simply following the one they think has a higher chance of helping them survive, but Ralph watches them all slowly leave for "the brute" and idk, just friendly reminder that Ralph is pretty fucked up in his later life, probably.

Please get out of my house

It's my house

Get out of my walls !!

(I don't know why I did this, I just thought it would be funny)
