Self obsession and self hatred go hand in hand. Though I do wonder if others— specifically non Dirks ever suffer from this overlap.
might be a prince thing honestly

Yep. It's a prince thing.
Is there a larger sample size to prove that, or is it only based on you and Eridan’s comments? I’m curious. I’m not sure where you’d get that knowledge, but I’d love to look into it.

We're destroyers it's kind of in the nature of destroying to be arrogant but also hate yourself cause of it.
my thoughts on that wwould be that princes are destroyers of their owwn aspect, thus inherently detrimental to themselvves wwhile also bein ruled by themselvves. a prince does not reign ovver his aspect, it reigns ovver him, and he cannot escape it no matter howw much destruction he leavves behind in his crusade
Sure, I understand we’re a destructive class. But I figured for us it was because of the heart aspect and how much we are superseded with ourselves. I just can’t imagine a destroyer of doom having the same sort of narcissism and self hatred. I mean, by your logic, is everybody who works in demolition suffering from the same mindset? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but it feels like confirmation bias.

Maybe. Idk I'm way too high to be having this kind of conversation.
okay yeah maybe i am also a clinically diagnosed narcissist so maybe thats the reason and not the prince part
I do understand what you’re saying. I just think it’s still presumptive in a sense to make it a class thing. I’m not against it, because your explanation is an interesting theory, but I’ve only really known two princes, and one is myself- a heart player. The other is a version of you, who I barely know. But I’ll think on this more and try to draft up more thoughts on the matter. Thanks.
