What are your thoughts on Cairngorm in Houseki no Kuni?

Alright, let’s talk about Cairngorm Houseki no Kuni

First and foremost to understand Cairngorm you must understand Ghost. Several things established about Ghost from the get go, they have little self confidence, they idolize others especially Lapis, and they see Cairngorm as the embodiment of their flaws.

When Ghost is musing to themselves about Canrigorm, they suggest that being able to be with somebody who is perfectly suited for you is true happiness and Phos agrees with the musing.

Ironically, Ghost and Cairn already had this relationship where no matter what they would be together and be able to understand each other, but ironically they are too similiar and because of that they clashed too often and loathed one another in the form of self loathing. Which is why Ghost clings to Lapis so much they see Lapis and their own relationship in idealized terms, that when they wee following Lapis they did not have to rely on their unreliable self. 

Which is also why Ghost blames themselves for Lapis’ departure. After all if Lapis was perfect then it could not be Lapis’ fault, it must have been something wrong with Ghost, for it is always something wrong with Ghost. To escape their own self loathing though, ghost blames all of their flaws on Cairngorm the quartz inside of them. 

The only praise they give to Cairn is how dependable they are, and wow… this is also the strongest trait that Cairn shows around Phos. It’s almost like something led them to believe that their dependability was their own good trait, and thus Cairngorm shows his dependability by being utterly devoted to Phos. 

To the point of self sacrifice and self ham to an extreme extent. However, their bond is not just Phos taking advantage of Cairngorm’s complete and total loyalty towards them. It’s very much a two way street. The same way that Phos projects antarcticite onto Cairn, Cairn projects Lapis onto Phos. They are from the beginning both looking for other people who once gave them a place of belonging in each other, and in that way as well both looking for a place of belonging in their roles to each other.

The same way that Cairn is Phos’ partner that will never leave him after losing the previous two, Cairn’s total devotion to Phos gives them a job that will never end and a reason to keep on being, when they were used to just being the inside of Ghost and having no purpose or use beyond that.

Which is why what Achmea says in this chapter is partially a manipulation on his part. It was not just Phos taking advantage of Cairn’s loyalty, Cairn got something out of their relationship as well.

Cairngorm is in the end, somebody who shares Ghost Quartz’s flaws. That applies to the way they deal with others as well. Cairn wants to escape themselves who they always see as poor and flawed, and instead cling onto somebody who sees them as better than they are. 

It’s just as likely to be their own low sense of self worth that drives their abnormal devotion than it is a phantom promise from Ghost Quartz.

Aechmea even suggests that nobody notices Cairn’s loyalty is unhealthy, almost as is to suggest they did not want to notice. Then, immediately afterwards they are the first person to compliment the dark nature of their quart which Ghost in the past referred to as a black thing and ugly.

Immediately afterwards, Cairn completely attaches themselves to Aechmea. It’s almost like… the symptoms are being treated but not the cause. Cairngorm’s central tendency is still to attach themselves to others to make up for the self love they can’t give themselves. The just chose a new target this time around to the point of completely losing interest in Phos, the same way Cairngorm lost interest in Lapis after moving onto Phos. 

So, Cairngorm regaining his sense of self is probably not going to be achieved only through the prince, and there’s definitely an element of manipulation to it, but it’s still important progress for them to let go of what they once clung to for a little while in order to eventually re-evaluate it and then redefine what those things mean to them on their own terms, and not just what Ghost told them to feel, or what they wanted to cling to to avoid thinking about themselves.

whelp i finished Hazbin season 1. Don't plan on watching more of it, just wanted to see if my theories about it were correct (they were). It's not very good, and feels like an adult cartoon made for children. Its pacing is poor, the characters range from decent to terrible, the dialogue is bad, there's too many plot inconsistencies and the approach to Christianity feels incredibly juvenile and poorly thought out. Just watch Moral Orel.

I cant believe people sent me death threats over this show.

Nifty is best girl.
