Rainix is the femslash ship between The Girl in the Yellow Raincoat and Six from the Little Nightmares fandom.
Canon[]
Very Little Nightmares[]
The two met after Raincoat Girl witnesses Six standing across from her on pipes, and as usual, Six is distant in the beginning. But as time pursued, their partnership grew stronger. Six is seen assisting or stalking Raincoat Girl whenever she can, whether the latter is aware of this or not. The two are only present with each other in Very Little Nightmares. When Raincoat Girl encounters the Pretender towards the end of the game, this is the last time Six ever sees her; the Pretender immediately pursues Raincoat Girl with violent intent. With nowhere else to run, Raincoat Girl begins descending the cliff hovering just above the ocean.
Six manages to bump into her in the midst of this predicament. She spectates her from a distance on a hanging rock, but the stone gives way beneath her. She clings desperately onto a branch until Raincoat Girl rescues her yet again. Six assists her friend in gratitude. Just as Raincoat Girl finds herself cornered on the edge of the cliff with an enraged Pretender gradually gaining up on her, Six drops a massive boulder atop her attacker. The plan seemed to have worked for a few seconds, but Pretender lunges into Raincoat Girl and sends them both falling into the water.
Before Six can reach the shore, both have already drowned. Her deceased companion's raincoat can be seen drifting inanimately across the surface.
Fanon[]
Rainix is one of the most popular ships in the fandom, and the most popular Little Nightmares femslash pairing. There are many theories surrounding the two regarding their origins and correlation with each other. In Little Nightmares 2, Six obtains her symbolic raincoat in an abandoned alleyway. Many fan theories surmise that Raincoat Girl's, well, raincoat, washed up into the empty city after her death. A more bold yet sensible theory came into place regarding the two and the Lady.
In Little Nightmares, a portrait showcases a small girl wearing yellow garments, presumably a raincoat, standing stiffly next to the Lady. Players immediately assumed this was Six considering no other kidnapped kids wear bright clothing, and the girl in the photograph just so happens to be wearing a yellow coat. But what left most confused was the hairstyle: The girl had a braid, and Six has a bob-cut. To support this theory, players suggested that Raincoat Girl is the child in the portrait. People instead claimed that Six isn't the Lady's daughter or related in any way, but Raincoat Girl is.
This allows a stronger, more interesting subplot and secret that may or may not influence entertaining shipping content. Though not everyone ships them romantically in response to this. Some prefer them as friends or even adoptive sisters.
