do you think Shaw (Bitch) is an expression from Pharloom (which Hornet would have learned from the weavers) or does Pharloom and Hallownest just speak the same language

I maintain that all of Hornet's lines when you fight her in Hollow Knight are swear words

@sierra she doesnt say shaw in silksong does she

keen-eared gamers will realize that the stilkin tribe in bilewater (biggest haters in the galaxy) also say Shaw. and make the connection that it's a bad word

@autumn I like to imagine she either does (out loud, under her breath, or in her head) and we just can't hear it. but she's probably just matured a bit and realized that she doesn't need to yell MOTHERFUCKERRRR when fighting

@autumn she probably only does it when fighting the knight tbh. cause she’s also a bit of a hater

@sierra i saw someone say that it might just be a name for the knight

@sierra calling her opponent slurs as she's fighting them

@autumn nawww I don't think so . first thing she says to it is "Dross'ye Khalimo" (Come no closer, Ghost.) and I'm pretty sure she says Dross and calls it ghost at least one more time (after the abyss?) so like. it has to be bad words

@sierra that's so crazy you even remember that you're so tapped in

@autumn well I played hollow knight *after* silksong so it's still fresh in my mind 😭😭😭 I've been on this since day 1 tho there's this one vid where she tells the knight, like, "ghost be serious" and the knight turns into a stag beetle (TOO SERIOUS!!!) and the video uses the "dross'ye khalimo" voiceline so the . seed of knowledge is planted deep within my mindJesus christ I'm autistic

@sierra i played it just before but i never pay attention to stuff like that
