And you can even see the part she lost of herself watching her whenever she eats
I now see why people thought Six would eventually become the Geisha. I’m so glad that Bandai Namco decided to continue this game series!
Little Nightmares 2 made me really sad about both Six and Mono tbh, future Mono just wanted to prevent the betrayal happening to him that would lead him to that state, but at the same time it would result in Six doing these as well, which is a vicious chain that can't be broken. I wonder how Little Nightmares 3 will be 😢
Six gains the memory’s of whoever she eats. The nome is they boy from the dlc who already knew where the lady’s residence was. When six ate the nome she then knew where to find the lady
I don't see many people talk about how kind she is when we first meet her again in the tower. She's so trusting that she not only offers to share with Mono the music box (and what that represents) after being coaxed, but in the case that Mono misses the music box when swinging the hammer and slams it into the ground next to it, she doesn't go to shield it. She doesn't even flinch. In her most animalistic form, when her body - and probably mind, too - have been contorted practically beyond recognission, she still believes Mono won't hurt her. The decision to betray him happens after he hurts her in his attempt to free her and escape together. And Mono, of course, had to save her. He cares about her. Why would he not? Judgement cannot be passed to him. He did what he did out of love for the friend who has been there throughout this whole nightmare. These are children. Children who have absolutely no guidance trying to survive in a hateful world of severe and disgusting cruelty. It's hard to ask a five year old to make logical decisions about who to risk trusting when they've been hurt so unbelievably much both mentally and physically throughout their entire life. I don't believe this story is one of villains and heroes. It's a tragedy about the perils of childhood and what can be lost to it. It's hard for me to look at any of the children in this franchise (even the school children, honestly) and see true evil. The only evil that can be found comes from the hundreds or even thousands of adults who would rather escape from reality than fix the world when they have all the power now that they likely lacked as children.
She also is scared to trust anyone again after realizing the one person she trusted (Mono) was the Thin Man, so she couldn’t trust the gnome helping her
Man, if Shadow Six is basically Six's soul then it would make so much sense that she would just let mono fall, in fiction people who lost their souls are always portraited as people who are barely or not capable of feeling emotions, so what Thin Man took from her was probably her capacity to feel empathy for others, which is why she left Mono.
When she eat she absorbed the memories and the skills. When she eat the rat she learn how use sewers. When she eat gnome she learn the mirror was the weapon. When she eat the lady she got her power
I remember someone brought up a point that mono/the man’s feelings towards Six are pretty ambiguous since when he grabbed her the man turned Six into a monster but also left her in a room filled with comfort items like her music box and stuff so it could be he resents her but understands on some level what she did
Seven ate Nine, but Six ate Seven.
Certainly a good example of “a child who is ostracized by the village, will burn it down to feel its warmth.”
If Mono escaped with Six, the time loop would break and they would both cease to exist.
I have read the theory that she unintentionally let go of Mono's hand because felt the urge to eat him and got scared. She would have attacked Mono if she didn't let him go
This also happens a while after the kitchen, meaning she probably realised the sausage was made out of other children, so the gnome was better in her mind because she didnt know it was actually another child.
It also kind of makes sense when your are being chased by mono but the tall version he takes six and leaves because he wants to keep her trapped and chases mono to not let him free her and have to experience the pain that the tall mono had to suffer
Spoiler for the final boss fight of little nightmares 2: The saddest thing to me is the boss fight with her in little nightmares 2. You have to destroy her music box, which was something that she was using when you initially find her as a coping device. And in order to get to that music box, you have to use the call command, which was a tool that you used to get her to follow you as a sign of her trust to you. Essentially, you have to constantly betray her trust in order to save her. And then afterwards, when she comes back to normal Mono, doesn’t get the chance to explain himself before everything starts closing on itself. So whether or not, she knows that Mono eventually becomes the thin man is irrelevant. They are both essentially trapped in a time loop cycle of revenge against each other.
Plus, throughout the entire first game, it's very obvious that the monsters are killing kids, turning them into food (such as sausages), and feeding them to the guests. So Six knows that the sausage was made of her own kind, but she didn't know that the Nome was too. So Six, in an attempt to not commit cannibalism, eats the unknown creature instead of the child-meat sausage. Which unfortunately, we all know how that worked out.
The poor gnome just wanted to give her food ,always breaks my heart 😭😭😭😭
I like the theory of her realizing that the meat on the maw is made of children and chose to eat the (to her) weird looking animal instead of human sausage.
