of all the characters why did it have to be fucking spamton

#spy's talky things #deltarune blogging #i'm gonna pick him up and put him in my purse #give him a bath while he claws my face off like a wet cat #i say this like it's not the most on brand thing for me

thoughts on spamtenna?

god okay. okay. so .

i feel. like the fandom is slacking. on the spamton insecurity part of spamtenna. like. okay. hold on

so spamtons a bigshot whatever yeah yeah. and in all the art interpretations ive seen hes been this huge sleaze who fucks with tenna for fun but. that wouldnt really make sense for the canonical situation?

like. tenna talks about how his main reason for getting spamton on his show was so he could figure out how he made it. being a """""big shot"""". and spamton is obviously aware of this. knowing tenna he probably was constantly pestering him about that.

and spamton has had issues with feeling used before. the addisons left him when he became big. wouldnt that feel shallow? that your friends are leaving you? that they werent truly your friends?

spamton says to tenna that he "really does care". this implies there was doubt in the first place. doubt that tenna was using him for his fame. that he DIDNT care.

and in a way, he was using him! even if he loved that mailman!! he was definitely, at least on the surface, trying to get him to sign a deal. and spamton was hesitant at first! it took him a while to even accept!

so i feel when people show spamton and tennas dynamic, theyre kind of downplaying the pure insecurity behind it oll for the cool confident sleazeball/pathetic man trope. spamton is NOT actually confident. that man is riddled with paranoia. and i feel like their dynamic would be less of two coworkers being in a undercover gay romance but two pathetic losers who dont think the other actually wants to be around them. hesitant to show actual affection to each other even though they so desperately want to. they dont think the other person likes them and they try to keep it as businessy as possible despite it being obvious that theyre in love. spamton wouldnt be flirting with him and acting like a greaser. he would be insanely wary and nervous too

do you feel me. do you understand. this is what i was talking about earlier does this make sense

#non art #deltarune blogging #thank u op u get it <3 #like man you telling me the little creachur who absolutely cowers the second he brings up the knight is some cool confident guy?#no he's pathetic. he's cowardly. it's all an act and it BAFFLES me how folk are falling for it #when his cowardice isn't even subtext it's full on text #like yeah tenna wears his emotional insecurities on his sleeve but he's still much more confident about being The Boss in the tv time studi #but spamton is way out of his depth. he's only there because a benefactor let him be there #he is a puppet on a string and has 0 control there is NO way in hell he's confident about all this

i hate how any career these days feels like you have to also double as an influencer. maybe i don’t want to be subjected to marketing myself

#non art #delete later #one of the worst parts about being an artist is 80% of it is actually marketing yourself and noone tells you that

Something I’ve noticed a lot in the deltarune fandom (cough specifically on twitter cough cough) is that people are starting to heavily blame Spamton for the Snowgrave/Weird route because he “manipulated Kris and Noelle” and honestly it’s reminding me a lot of how the early Undertale fandom blamed Chara for Geno.

Spamton didn’t “manipulate” anyone, YOU did. You, the player, forced Kris to manipulate Noelle into killing people, all Spamton did was help. He saw what YOU had already done and sold you a ring to further accomplish YOUR goals (and in turn help him accomplish his.) He didn’t manipulate anyone, he didn’t convince you to force Noelle to kill people, all he did is help you finish what you started and took advantage of YOUR crimes to eventually take over Queen’s mansion.

Of course, Spamton isn’t at all innocent in this situation but he didn’t cause Snowgrave, YOU did.

#non art #deltarune blogging #i do wonder if it's due to an influx of new players w 3&4 release #or players watching snowgrave on youtube rather than playing it themselves #which is a'okay! there's a lot of reasons someone might not want to actively play it (i haven't either because i dont have time lol)#but snowgrave is about active play. it's a constant active choice the player makes to impart their own control over the world #it is SO easy to abort a snowgrave route. you must make the choice to choose proceed every. single. time.#there is no evil in the world of dt unless it's the evil actions you choose to place upon it #(this does not make /you/ evil. they are pixels. there's a good vid by tale foundary on the topic of violence in gaming that covers this)#but yeah. when ch2 first dropped we didnt even find out about snowgrave until days later #through people digging into the files #and it was at first considered a hoax! like the absolute secrecy of it was insane. you can't just start it accidentally #i do have more thoughts on how it's kinda neat spamton and noelle are both depicted with angelic motifs #and both are such key characters in snowgrave #which is weird. if the player is probably the angel in the prophecy why are they the cursed angels of the narrative #idk that's irrelevant rambling. my apologies op 😅#delete later

people having terrible media literacy is bad enough but when they then go and accuse others of the same thing despite coming away with the most wrong takes imaginable it's cooked y'all

I feel like people have forgotten everything about Spamton for the sake of Tenna angst and it really saddens me. I hold myself back every day from going on rants about Spamton.

#Non art #deltarune blogging #I only got deep into spamton w the release of the new chapters and boy it's been a bad time to find a new fave #Dunno what it is with this rat but he raids the fridge and eats people's sense of media literacy when they're not looking
