TW hot take this rant is about Pen! He's my favorite object character in bfdi. I saw someone else rant about this topic a couple days ago, so I wanted to as well. ok so hot take coming (not targetted ofc) below!! I get a bit annoyed when people baby pencil about her actions. I get she suffered, but pen's here too. He matters as much as pencil does. He's having a very relatable and somewhat depressing arc rn that I can personally relate too and many other people can too. Pencil is mostly the one getting the attention because she's the fan favorite. Well she was tpot 15-19, I feel like. I'm not trying to put aside Pencil's issues, she's extremely relatable and I feel bad for her. But I hate when some people overlook Pen's struggles (no one on scratch but i've seen some on yt and other sites) In TPOT 19 he starts shaking because of pencil, he builds up the courage to talk to others just to be dismissed. He grips his arm up to 4 times, probably showing his distress, often doing it when he's put in a hard situation. Yes I get Pencil lost all her friends, but that happened because of the consequences of her actions. Pen lost most of his old friends thanks to the game, drifting apart from them slowly. When he tried to reconnect with Snowball and it wasn't like old times, it literally hurt me </3 I headcanon that he has autophobia because of the way he reacts when there's a chance his friends might leave him, and the way he depends on the few friends he has, mostly Liy and bottle. And he doesn't even know bottle is out yet. So yeah I don't really like how (SOME NOT EVERYONE) of the fandom babies pencil and doesn't acknowledge Pen's problems and mental health too pen is me ok??? he's my only self insert in bfdi except four I think is this rant valid or stupid idek press the pen screenshot for pen art (when u press flag)
