This is good. I feel bad for Rarity, though. OCD sucks.
This was really good! You did a pretty great job of relaying Rare’s thought process in a way that seemed... not logical but justified.
Not my headcanon for Rarity but well-described. Nice work.
I hope Rarity thinks one day to bring the candles with her. I've heard that people with OCD centered around similar situations have benefited from taking the object they've fixated on away from their home; for instance, one woman was worried that her hair dryer would spark(or something like that) and burn her home to the ground, so her therapist suggested that she take it with her, out of the house, to work or wherever else she needed to go.
Quick mention for anyone who might be interested - with Seer's permission, I did a reading of the story. It's currently here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2z2IZdpc9s
Congratulations, you have accurately depicted OCD. I speak from experience when I say that the coping methods written here, and the worries being faced, are very real. Except the enchanted fireproof box; that would be awesome to have.
The candles are not lit. The taps are not on. And this is one of the best horror stories I have ever read. :') Honest to god, the ending made me want to cry.
This isn’t my particular brand of instability, but the ‘This is silly behavior’ bit really struck home. It is important to know that people can be 100% aware that their actions are illogical, and still feel the need to do it anyway.
Throughout the story I kept leaning back and forth between ‘How is she this bad?’ and ‘I feel really bad for her, because I could totally envision that mindset.’ It’s a scary thought.
