#i so desperately need more falin centric fanfics that explores this

[chickemz]

Though the adventure bible says Falin hardly registered the villagers fear and harassment, I still think she sensed something about their unease about her and her classmates avoided her, being othered from people at a young age is a very isolating feeling that sticks with u and could definitely lead to having low self esteem. she doesn’t really think much of herself, especially if she thinks she wasn’t worth saving if it puts everyone else in grave danger.

She understands why her father sent her away and she understands why her brother got angry and left that’s why she doesn’t seem to bore any grudges against either of them. But to me, that just seems like she rationalizes any hurt she’s experienced at the hands of her loved ones. She probably suppresses any feeling of loneliness and betrayal she may have felt and immersed herself into her own interests, similar to laios.

People with low self esteem are also often influenced easily. I do think falin’s interest in dungeons and magic are genuine, but it’s a wonder why she never really explored anything outside of it. I think it’s great that we see a snippet of Falin’s character growth with her response to Shuro. Falin is finally able to explore herself, her identity, outside of being laios’s little sister or marcille’s friend.
