Unfortunately obsessed with Eclipses

carme presents himself as a put together almost picture perfect moon, enough to be seen as disparate from his variants.

moon, as we know, is not the most intelligent on an emotional level. he’s a constant work in progress with determination to change, but he’s still very flawed and especially naive.

he might fully believe carme to be that exact vision he tries to display. mostly because carme does not give any opportunity to believe otherwise.

so, however it plays out, might moon be genuinely suprised if not slightly doubtful learning of carme’s sorrows? moon possibly puts carme on a pedestal unknowingly. he refers to carme as an “interesting individual” and pushes his interest for his character because of his subconscious drawn to carme.

understanding his counterpart, at least to me, would bring not only huge growth for carme’s character but as well as moon’s.

moon begins to realize that not everything is as black and white as he makes it out to be. everything carme has taught him or encouraged him to concider could come back to him all once.

anger for the consideration that someone could even treat carme so badly, the only moon he considers to be pleasent. someone he might be quick to defend without knowing the full story and knowing a side of carme that can be just as hurtful as his oppressors.

guilt for the way he preaches “all moons are the same.” his negative perceptions of himself bleed into other moons and of course, carme. he believes carme to be different or even above other moons without considering that carme at his core is still a moon. even if carme does not believe the notion, self loathing is continuous between them all. fears developed of if moon would view him to be just as bad as everyone else if moon knew what he’s done.

emphasizing that in this moment, what matters is carme and his pain. they are not so different as they might think. if anything they are exactly what the other needs. someone who has been at that low point and has grown from it. someone who moves for change and willing to try to live, to try and love.

assuring carme that nothing would change between them, because how could he ever hate him?

carme has done so much for moon, i’m sure moon would want to return to favor.
