OH THANK THE GODS HE DIDNT SEE THE REST OF TWITTER HOLY FUCK-

Ok ok ok… breathe.

So uh, there’s certainly a lot to unpack here, first of all, whoever is behind all of this has higher stakes than we may have realized and I’m very confused, who the hell are they!? Also: “We might be able to get Karl back, see Tommy again, and make sure this world doesn't end up like the last one." WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN!? WHAT LAST ONE? SEE TOMMY AGAIN? WHO ARE YOU DHFGCGFHFH WHAT DO YOU MEAN ‘MAY’ GET KARL BACK? IS HE IN THAT BAD OF A SHAPE? AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Second, finally, finally they figured it out! They know! They know now they know! 24 chapters in and they finally realized it’s not just an ARG dnchchfhcgdgdh. I am so happy. But yeah! This brings up a lot of problems and questions I’ve been stressing over for months now! Like, how Tubbo’s been unintentionally and unknowingly exposing End Kingdom secrets to literally millions of people! Or how they’ve all been watching these people without their consent go through things that they probably wouldn’t want to share with a bunch of strangers! Or how the hell are the streamers supposed to break the news of the situation and will Tommy and co. even believe them if whatever magic doesn’t let them show proof!?

Also, the morality of telling them! I’d be horrified to learn that thousands of strangers have been watching my life and getting entertainment off of it like some tv show without my knowledge, to the point where I’m not sure I’d want to know, especially if I can’t do anything to stop it. On the other hand, it’s their life so as mortifying as it may be for Wilbur to come clean and tell them what’s been going on, they deserve to know because refusing them that truth is refusing them agency in their own lives and allowing a horrible violation of privacy to continue without the people who’s privacy is being violated’s knowledge. Wilbur, you poor fuck, you’re stuck between a rock and a hard place atm, even when the right thing to is pretty obvious.

Also, minor detail I caught, might mot even be on purpose but… worldbuilding? “Who the fuck names themselves Wilbur?”. I’m fascinated by the concept of names in a world like Minecraft because you get to chose your own name, thats how we end up with things like Mumbo Jumbo, BadBoyHalo, or Ranboo, or Stressmonster, etc. and I’ve seen different writers tackle the subject of names in different ways when it comes to worldbuilding and find really interesting what they can come up with. Does this apply to Stream Labs universe as well? Are names there obtained differently than in our world? Are there any cultural norms surrounding names? Does it vary from place to place or from species to species or is it the same around the world?

okay! finally answering the big question here sdafh sorry it took so long dude but again, i had fun rereading the asks in my inbox as well as just, not being able to answer for a while.

asijdha there's a lot of things going on behind the scenes and a lot of things at stake here XD karl's more or less in worse shape than he really should be at the moment. you're gonna have to see for what i meant by 'last world' and 'see tommy again' for future chapters.

24 chapters in and we're FINALLY approaching the subject i know. i'm wondering if i should've done the pacing a bit differently. but what's done is done and we can finally progress a bit faster now :D

yeah the dilemma of the streamers having the ability, choice and decision to tell tommy and thus tubbo what happened- that's a big can of worms that they're gonna have to figure out soon. but they'll try their best!

don't worry, it won't be ONLY wilbur who has to be able do it soon... he's going to drag techno, and phil in because he's NOT doing it alone!! XDD

i'm glad that someone actually noticed that little tidbit! it is worldbuilding, and yeah people in the stream labs world have the choice and ability to choose their names- i'll try to get into it in the future and hopefully it'll make sense but i'll get to that in a later chapter. if i don't then just remind me and i'll get into it then!
