#IM ALWAYS HARD-PRESSED BETWEEN WHAT I FIND FUNNIEST ABOUT HUNGER AU WORLDBUILDING

[definitelynotshouting]

i've been thinking so hard about your worldbuilding about most players spawning in from the universe vs a few being born to parents, because the implications here are incredible. like. straight up the majority of people in this universe had no parents other than the universe. the Concept of parents and children exists, but most people will have no frame of reference for what it's like to be a child in the care of a parent. or like, the concept of caretaker responsibility for a child, at all. two spawned players trying to raise a baby together must be such a disaster. god i want to see what the parenting advice forums look like in this universe. is this why grian and mumbo were so fucking weird with grumbot.

THE UNBRIDLED COMEDY OF TWO SPAWNED PARENTS TRYING TO RAISE A BABY IS INDEED A GOOD PART OF WHY I WENT WITH THIS WORLDBUILDING TBH

the other half is an even split between "i truly cannot conceive (HA) the concept of the hermit characters having parents (with notable exceptions Joe Hills and TFC for the bit)" and "i wanted to tie in with the actual spawning game mechanic"

Ur completely right the hypothetical parenting advice forums would be off the chain in this universe WKDHWKDJEKDJEJDK currently picturing some reddit-styled post a la mc/parenting-advice like "my partner and i are trying to teach our baby how to punch trees, but it doesn't seem to be taking. what are we doing wrong????" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Anyway all that to say this is exactly why Grian and Mumbo are Like That with Grumbot. Someone fucking help him (and them)
