“In my experience if you want to help but don’t know how you only need to ask”
Ok thanks for the hot tip Loial but Perrin will spend 14 books not asking anyone what they need ever so
Faile: I need to you be more open and assertive
Tam: I need you to be a leader for the Two Rivers boys
Rand: I need you to deal with the Prophet
Perrin:
Hopper: I need you to practice in the Wolf Dream, foolish cub
GOD right?? He’s so frustrating. You know how the other boys have a thing that they think they do that is different than their actions? Like Rand thinks he respects women but he acts in ways that take away their agency? And Mat thinks he’s not a hero but he is? Well Perrin thinks he’s super thoughtful and considerate of others and then he is just NOT like next reread keep track of all his outbursts and all the times he physically picks some woman up to move her out of the way like Perrin STOP it drives me crazy
The second someone said his super empathy means he’s always reacting to how people feel but not what they’re saying or acting, his irritating behavior snapped into place. I still don’t like it, but it made waaaay more sense.
Grow up man. Listen to what your wife is saying, she isn’t actually really jealous!
Totally like I have many emotions during my day that I don’t act on because like …. I have learned not to as an adult? Just because Faile smells jealous for two seconds doesn’t mean she actually is she had a fleeting normal human emotion that she then moved on from? Don’t base your whole life around it??
