- pearl next door - a thread

🥰🥰🥰
I spent the entirety of the premiere of the first episode in absolute joy, and I honestly didn't expect anything less from the marvelous people behind Gameboys. 🥰

Hashtag for the thread: #pearlexOTP because I'm not even gonna be subtle.
I already love her so much and I'm going to love her even more. 🥰 She's such an ideal protagonist, too!! She's active and brave, she stands up for herself and who she loves, and I'm so excited to see the conflicts she faces and how she handles them. I LOVE PEARL~!

#pearlexOTP
Eeeeee I love this little nod to CaiReel and where we are chronologically in relation to Gameboys' plot. Also, just, y'know:

N'aaaawwwwwwww look at themmmmmm. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

#pearlexOTP
BUT THIS AIN'T ABOUT THEM. 😋

#pearlexOTP
Relatable. 🥺🥺🥺

Ooh, and it's 11:11 when she says it! Honesty hour~ 🔥

#pearlexOTP
who wouldn't? 🥰🥺

if there were ever a perfect example of puppy love,

VOILA

#pearlexOTP
I honestly hope this is something they keep doing because it's really, really cute when they go to her for help. She knows them both so well. <3

#pearlexOTP
Uuuugh this is such a good and realistic image of a significant other aND SHE DESERVES ONE. ;____;

👇👇👇👇👇

#pearlexOTP
SHE WAS BEING SO CAUTIOUS ;_________;

#pearlexOTP
NO JUST GIRLS WHO AREN'T GAY APPARENTLY 👁️👁️

#pearlexOTP
I mean, she's right to fear ME. I'm the bisexual who's gonna take her apartment. 👀

#pearlexOTP
y'KNOW WHAT

In the way that BLs tend to focus on terrible communication and whatnot because men, I always hoped GLs would focus on the blurry line between platonic friendship and genuine romantic interest. BECAUSE CONFUSION OVER IT HAPPENS A LOT BETWEEN QUEER WOMEN.

#pearlexOTP
I already know based on the strength of Gameboys' character writing that I'm not gonna genuinely dislike anyone in this show, and that makes the whole experience genuinely heartwarming from the very start. 🥰

#pearlexOTP
Aaawww I like this routine they have. And I looove the special effects choices with the notes app and her purple display settings. It makes the way the show is shot feel super immersive instead of awkward.

#pearlexOTP
Untrue. [cough]

I think you need a magical item or something too.

#pearlexOTP
Uh huh.

I DO NOT FIND YOU RELIABLE, NARRATOR PEARL.

#pearlexOTP
eep sexy voice 😳😳😳

#pearlexOTP
OBJECTION YOUR HONOR

THE PLOT IS UNREALISTIC

WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO DATE PEARL

;__________;

#pearlexOTP
SHE DESERVES THE ENTIRE WORLD

ALL OF IT

THE WHOLE THING

[WEEPS]

#pearlexOTP
OKAY BUT THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT MUST HAVE TAKEN PEARL TO MAKE THIS VIDEO

ALL THE HAIRSTYLES AND THE MULTIPLE SHOTS

anyway she's perfect and deserves the world i'm gonna keep saying it until someone gives it to her

#pearlexOTP
So omg this is the name of her channel, right?

WHY IS THIS SO CUTE

IT'S AN IN-UNIVERSE TITLE AHHHHH

#pearlexOTP
Please tell me she has, like, 100 million subscribers on her first day because honestly anything fewer would be unrealistic. LOOK HOW CUTE SHE IS.

#pearlexOTP
actually i changed my mind can i have pearl's apartment instead

also look at her ;____; pulverizing some pillows ;________;

i love her so much ;_________________;

#pearlexOTP
this ENTIRE scene is adorable 😂😂😂

I love how playful this show is already 🥺🥺🥺

#pearlexOTP
gee who would do something like that

[coughs in gameboys]

#pearlexOTP
Awww now I wonder if she and Gav ever talked about this.

#pearlexOTP
okay so just

so we're all on the same page here

when a loofah is that size or larger, it must have a name

how about Scallop

i'm open to suggestions 👀

NAME! THAT! LOOFAH!

#pearlexOTP
I MEAN LISTEN

She's perfect and gorgeous and deserves the ENTIRE WORLD but she's been forced to watch CaiReel fall in love so SOME INTIMIDATION IS UNDERSTANDABLE

#pearlexOTP
oh wow

okay this is a little late but just so you know, PND, it's a human rights violation to make me watch pearl cry ever so JUST SO YOU KNOW, PND

BE GOOD TO MY GIRL PEARL

#pearlexOTP
I know I'm supposed to be paying attention but mostly I'm just admiring her hair and wanting to know what products she uses.

Welcome to my life in GL Land.

#pearlexOTP
1) I love her sad grayscale self-meme
2) I love the extra background on her relationship with Gav
3) I LOVE HER

.....i hadn't said it in a while what

#pearlexOTP
uh YOU'RE sobbing

#pearlexOTP
REAL TALK: this was one of my favorite moments in the episode because IT'S TRUE, and they DO! Some people think "looks matter" means there's some objective type of attractiveness, but who I find attractive may not be who someone else finds attractive!

#pearlexOTP
Yessss I love this as a message. That there's no objective model of attractiveness for everyone. My best friend and I once made a Venn diagram of the people we find attractive and out of thirty celebrities we only overlapped on two.

#pearlexOTP
tell me more about the cats

#pearlexOTP
TELL
ME
MORE
ABOUT
THE
CATS
🥺🥺🥺

#pearlexOTP
like okay listen

if you had only showed me this single screenshot i would have fallen in love with pearl so

that's where we are on that

#pearlexOTP
🥰🥰🥰

this show is so good it's so good it's so good

#pearlexOTP
!!!! who was the other one???

DO WE KNOW

#pearlexOTP
everything in this show is so deeply relatable ;____;

#pearlexOTP
PLS STOP MAKING EMOTIONS IN MY HEART PLS

#pearlexOTP

👇👇👇👇👇

#pearlexOTP
SHE LEFT MY GIRL ON READ 🔥🔥🔥

#pearlexOTP
okay i ADORE HIM

#pearlexOTP
I'M SERIOUS I /ADORE/ THIS HUMAN

#pearlexOTP
The thought /THEY SHOULD HAVE THEIR OWN SHOW/ just popped into my head and then I had the glorious realization:

THEY DO!!

#pearlexOTP
BEST LINE IN THE ENTIRE EPISODE

THE NOISE I MADE

THE CHOKING ON MY LEMON BAR I DID

#pearlexOTP
Speaking of things that made me choke on pastry tonight–

#pearlexOTP
i mean i was there

pearl's right

i'm not just saying that because i'd take her side on most things

#pearlexOTP
WELCOME TO SUFFERING OF QUEER WOMEN 101

#pearlexOTP
hmph i'll irk you 😒

#pearlexOTP
nnnnoooooo pearl looks so vulnerable and honest and she's so brave i love her ;____;

#pearlexOTP
HELP HER ;____;

then give her the entire world like i asked don't think i forgot

#pearlexOTP
AN OSCAR WILDE QUOTATION!!!!!!!!!!!!

SEE, QUEER MEDIA IS BEST WHEN QUEER PEOPLE ARE INVOLVED IN THE CREATION PROCESS!!!!!

PE. RI. OD.

#pearlexOTP
pfffft the friendship between them is amazing i love how quick she goes from "aww" to "okay but you can chill"

#pearlexOTP
THIS!!! PART!!! 😂😂😂

I'M ASSUMING HE HAS A CRUSH ON A STRAIGHT BOY?

#pearlexOTP

F A C E

🤣🤣🤣🤣

#pearlexOTP
THEIR FRIENDSHIP IS MY FAVORITE

#pearlexOTP
;_________; GAAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVV

Li'l sweetheart. ;_______;

OMG I CAN REWATCH GAMEBOYS EVERY WEEK BETWEEN PND EPISODES \\:D/

#pearlexOTP
[emerges from the forest of BLs Where No One Talks to Each Other into the fields of GL Where ALL THE EMOTIONS ARE SERVED RAW]

#pearlexOTP
I LOVE this as a conflict because I've been on both sides of this multiple times. Both confessing to someone who didn't like me and someone I didn't like confessing to me. And there's no objective Right Answer to every situation. Confess or not? Always depends. 😓

#pearlexOTP
AND NOW FOR THE PART WHERE I HAVE FLAMES.

ON THE SIDE OF MY FACE.

#pearlexOTP
AND THAT'S NOT A BAD THING, SWEETHEART. 🥺

Sexuality's complex and very, very, very precious few people grow up with the freedom and luxury to explore their sexuality with guidance and love from their guardians. It takes time.

Always give yourself that time.

#pearlexOTP
The second person I came out to as bi was a gay friend who told me I was in denial and gay, and I remember feeling twice as betrayed since it was from someone inside the community. The gatekeeping thing is real and it hurts and I'm so happy to see it portrayed here.

#pearlexOTP
And this also exists. Far more than it should. And I rarely see it portrayed. I love this show. 🥺

#pearlexOTP
I'm intrigued by whatever she went through but oDDS ARE AS ONE OF THE TWO GROUPS SHE DOESN'T TRUST I'M NOT GONNA BE SUPER EMPATHETIC. 🙃🙃🙃

I'll hand her the stone though. I seriously want her apartment. [cough]

#pearlexOTP
hey look she's doing an impression of a hollywood director who's too afraid to put same-sex relationships in his movies

#pearlexOTP
PREDICTION TIME:

SHE'S GONNA GET JEALOUS WHEN PEARL GETS CLOSER TO ALEX AND THIS IS GONNA BITE HER IN THE BOOTY.

#pearlexOTP
Okay, y'know what, I can see Kong saying this to Arthit verbatim, so fine: #notallbls

#pearlexOTP
She also flirted with you a LOT.

......

What? I'm helping.

#pearlexOTP
SERIOUSLY THEIR FRIENDSHIP IS GENUINE AND SNARKY AND BEAUTIFUL 😂

#pearlexOTP
ahem

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#pearlexOTP

👇👇👇🔥🔥🔥

#pearlexOTP
[has loud crush louder]

#pearlexOTP

#pearlexOTP
