It was obvious with how she treated Marina when they first met. It's also seen with the fact that she's friend's with the agents, even calling Eight a really good friend of hers. But it's also still present to this day with Damp Socks.
Damp Socks could've been formed in many different ways. But Pearl actually found everyone on social medias. These people were just random dudes she found cool and that she got into a big adventure Imagine if Lady gaga randomly came into your DMs and went "yo wanna make a band ?"
Five, Pearl's wealth is so stupidly big that it's often played as a joke. She has a bus line stopping specifically for her house. She was gifted a giant boat when she was like 10yo. She also designed camp triggerfish and made the theme song because why the fuck not
Same for her new outfit in damp socks. She spent like half a million dollar's worth on her new jacket. Why ? because she wanted it to be made out of the same material as actual astronaut jackets. That's like. STUPIDLY precise but you do you girl you paid those designers well
Six, Pearl works hard. She was born into wealth, but nowadays, the reason why she has money is because her band is successful. Pearl has always shown a desire to improve herself, to change and try new things, to work into building up a future for herself and Marina.
That's one of the reasons why she wanted chaos. She refuses to get stuck in a box that would keep bringing her wealth and fame but that would ultimately make her feel like she doesn't improve anymore. Damp Socks is a manifestation of Pearl's wish to grow up.
And finally, and most importantly ... Pearl has never, NEVER used her money to oppress people. She did the opposite. That's actually really simple but that's also the reason why people hate the rich in our world. They maintain their wealth by oppressing others.
Pearl doesn't exploit her workers. If anything, her being willing to pay 500k for a jacket would show the opposite : she values other's work and is more than ready to give them what they're worth. And we know for a fact that she uses her wealth to spoil Marina.
It's also why Pearlina works so well despite the power unbalance in started on. Pearl doesn't see her money as a throne, but rather as a tool to bring the ones she loves happiness and used it to elevate Marina to be her equal. This is what makes Pearl a good person.
Oh and also she screamed at a terrorist so hard that he blew up. I guess that helps.
If that thread seems familiar to you, there's a reason for it ! This is a repost/rework of an old Tumblr post of mine, hope you enjoyed it ~
Gasp how could I forget Pearl's a raging lesbian too She can do whatever she wants as long as she kisses her wife and I'll be okay with it
