#also sorry for saying 'i'm not successfully articulating anything' and then immediately having a whole paragraph of text.

i am not really successfully articulating anything about it but i'm soooo :pleading_face: about mcsos. it's really good. i like when they are friends and they play the game and it is just the game, nothing so special about it. they know that they will lose all the beautiful things and joyful memories they have put together here but that's okay. even the pit left by the pillagers' explosion is still there. i think about how often minecraft is about something happened here. you may never know what. i think about the broken chunks of rock at spawn and how there's no answer to what broke them. why is that incredibly flat cat standing straight up? who decided to core out the earth and leave it hanging in the sky? what happened here, in this dimly-lit tavern stocked with potions, where perhaps a group of friends gathered during a storm, and wondered if they might laugh, or hold hands, or fight, before the world ended? the game ends, but it was fun, right? and the beautiful things are still there, in someone's video footage or in our memories. and we will meet again. and there is one more line in this love letter to the universe.
