PREACH OML SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

however though, I don’t quite agree with your statement that “both of them are morally grey”

Primarily because a lot of what Mono does that could be considered morally darker was out of self defense (this applies to Six as well! But you already talked enough about Six!) Killing the doctor, killing the porcelain children, killing the hunter, those were all things that had to be done or the two kids would’ve died. It’s also important to remember that those entities aren’t really people, not anymore at least. They’re basically creatures- monsters, designed to attack and be hostile towards any kid they come in contact with. I don’t really think their deaths should be put on the same moral high ground as the death of a kid. And I don’t think it’d be fair to say those two are morally grey just for trying to defend themselves. Mono has consistently been portrayed as helpful and kind. He went out of his way to free Six from the hunter, he went through the school to save Six from the porcelain children, and greeted her rather gently when she woke up. And ofc he freed Six from her corrupted form in the signal tower. I agree with your point on the double standards between the two. People forget the way Six pulled Mono out of the TVs consistently, the way she pulled Mono out of the ruble when that building fell upon them, or overall the way she continually chose to help Mono through out the game, the fact she even stuck around.

I can pull more examples for the two, but I want to try to remain within just LN2 for clarity’s sake.

maybe its a bit of my own personal bias, but I don’t exactly like referring to any young kid as morally grey.

Mono and Six are only about nine years old, that’s incredibly young. I’m no expert in child development, but from my previous research, proper decision making skills, and emotional/social skills are only beginning to mature at that age. Mono and Six aren’t clueless of course, they understand what is happening but they wouldn’t understand the why of it all. They of course wouldn’t be able to process it emotionally either.

and that’s completely disregarding the effects long lasting trauma has on children and they’re development.

it doesn’t feel fair to expect these nine year olds to make morally sound decisions. Especially highly traumatized ones.

and I’m not saying your saying or trying to imply a lot of this! But I wanted to add these in as a response to the “they’re both morally grey” statement. I see a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings that come from that perspective as well. So I wanted to clear the air a little

I got really frustrated in a debate about Little Nightmares with someone so I’m drawing a whole comic for getting my feelings out.

Reblog this if you would not only accept, but welcome fan art, moodboards, etc. of your fics

All of these used to be so common for people to show their appreciation of different fics and authors, and I think it’s a shame people don’t do it anymore. I love seeing fan work for my fics!!

Saw a post just now about characters who can change tires and

Jacob 100% can change a tire, he would've been taught for sure in the military at least, there is no doubt about this. Will he change yours? No, because he wants you to know how to do it, so he will take you through it until you get it right. He's not a bad teacher, to be honest, but he will definitely make you change it multiple times to make sure it's stuck.

Joseph I'm less sure about. I don't think he would've personally owned a car before, and the Book of Joseph doesn't really give any indication that he would've been in a position to learn before creating the cult. That being said, I think he may have at least observed someone else changing a tire - perhaps on the buses to Hope County - and so I can see him being able to figure it out if need be. He wouldn't change yours though, he would get someone more experienced to do so.

With John my kneejerk reaction was no, but then I thought about it a bit more; he owns a car, but I personally don't see him working on it too much himself. But it's a different story with his plane; I definitely think he's the plane equivalent of a horse girl, so he would've learned to take care of it himself. Nobody else is working on his plane. So even if he hasn't changed a car tire before, he could probably work it out with minimal guidance - Jacob would have experience with both, so he could tell him the differences. Would John change your tire? I think yes because he wants the validation of your gratitude.

Faith probably not, but given how intelligent and adaptable she is, I can definitely see her figuring it out pretty quickly, possibly even just through observation. Would she change yours? No, I don't think so; she'd either get someone else to do that work, or she'd try to convince you that actually walking is much more enlightening and helps you see the world clearly so who cares about tires.
