i haven't watched pearl's episode yet. but there's something to be said about the fact that she knew scar well enough to know that, when it was the two of them, he would have too much pride to accept a sacrifice.
she doesn't want to win, and she tells him at first before she quietly tucks that secret back into its shell after scar's indignant reaction to her first attempt at self-sacrifice. she lets scar forget about it as they kill gem, and then as scar kills pearl. at no point does she try to say here, let me give this to you. she knows scar, but she also knows the pain of an ending like that.
but she misses a few swings, doesn't she? her legs don't move as quickly to duck away from his arrows. and isn't that familiar? isn't that something like a cactus ring, with two unrelenting fists and two half-hearted ones: a fight with two unwilling participants, a fight that was over before it ever really began at the insistence of one of its patrons
pearl is all too familiar with the sting of sacrifice, but then on the other side of things... scar knows all too well the tragedy of gifted victory, doesn't he?

Grian stream highlights!!!:
Mumbo is learning guitar + was recommended to be Grian's right hand man
Skizz was recommended to be Impulse’s right hand man
Grian can you please say one of your classic lines? -Ollie. Uhm….hi? -Grian
Scar discovered that you can use goat horns and everyone used them at the same time so noxcrew took them away
Being put on hold on gri’s stream
The Ghana school is doing really well!!! There's jobs and a trolley for the kids to be picked up, it's really popular, and they're opening a primary school class there :D
And it's semi-cheap to run the school, which is $15,000 pounds to run the school a year. I love gri <3
Meltdown (which definitely didn't happen)- “oooo Jimmy’s clutching! Oh- he's dead now.” -Joel
Awkward breaks because they're 5 minutes
JOEL SLAYING IN HOLE IN THE WALL (2ND!!!!!!)
The whole team getting 2nd in Grid Runners :D
Everyone getting so hyped about Mojang potentially saying the next update was gonna be the end update and getting so incredibly disappointed when it wasn't (they literally convinced themselves it was HILARIOUS ALFKAKGAK)

“I'm so happy for her :333” -Grian

Real life is everything to me. Scar, Cleo, Ren and Skizz look like they’re children. No one can run. Combat is horrific. 90% of ppl are on red life within thirty minutes. Grian randomly sometimes shows a facecam for the first time in what feels like years. There’s a sleepover and club you can only enter upon dying. BigB is freakishly tall for no reason. Grian is falling and then ascending like Jesus Christ on easter. All of them are going to puke
