#but instead of just qcellbit now it’s him AND qroier

[somebluemelodies]

if cc!Cellbit is gonna be taking a break from qsmp and cc!Roier has the experimento hardcore event for up to 3 weeks… we have two potential routes here

spiderbit goes mimir for a few days and gets some much needed sleep together

OR

they’re actually technically awake (see: q!Cellbit murdering workers “off-camera”) and we potentially get hints at them preparing for (or even actively killing) something, just off-camera

either way, methinks they’re not leaving each other’s sides

[osarquivosmagnus]

A couple of cute/funny things that happened while qroier, qcelbit and qrichas were out exploring together (mostly for me because all I can think about is Them and this was so funny I had tears in my eyes as I watched them interact) -

Qcellbit said he wasn't laughing at qroier's (lack of) hair from the haircut he got from qmike, he was just smiling a lot from how beautiful qroier looked

Later on qcellbit laughed again and when qroier complained, qcellbit said he looks cute, beautiful guapissimo, and assured him he wasn't laughing (he 100% was)

They got lost and qroier said he could never be lost because he found qcellbit/now he had qcellbit

Qroier asked for food and qcellbit said something that in portuguese would sound like "you want me to give you food" but also "you want me to fuck you?" and didn't explain to qtoier, but richarlyson hit him and tried to explain it to qroier.

They sang. A Lot. Roier rapped for a while.

Qcellbit walked into a room and heard qroier calling him names, so he yelled "I can hear you, idiot". Qroier said "idiot??? You kiss me with that mouth?? Rude!!" (But he said "grosseirinho" with inho in portuguese which means tiny/cute... like in gatinho lol)

Also cellbit was saying sometimes the english translator translates his name to celibacy, and he tells roier it means when someone doesn't have sex. Roier says "ohhh that's why you're called cellbit, then now I get it"

Also. Roier tells cellbit to go to the next velada (the event in spain roier was). And then they start talking about fighting each other, but then qroier says "oh we should do a besada" LOL (beso as in kiss, so he's saying instead of fighting they should do a kissing event)

[insomniackel]

Keep in mind that for some reason English is failing me idk why it’s my first language and I never spelled so wrong in my LIFE that im like?????? So any mistakes in grammar or misspelling please tell me

~ This is me over analyzing Doied in moments that could be just the admin being silly and torturing us ~



- Doied kinda acts like how qroier hides his pain by jokes but it comes off a bit….

(For example when the whole moment of qCellbit saying how he thought that qroier was better off without him, he wasn’t in the right state of mind, and Doied was like “I’m fine, I’m like a new person now” and then “I missed you I missed you” like how qroier acts when he’s sad but it’s reversed, qro usually says something deep and then plays it off as a joke but Doied didn’t do it in the way qroier does he did it reversed )

- Doied doesn’t immediately find caves for armor/weapons, he immediately finds a crop and then separates from the group to explore the world and collect crops to plant. Anyone who was watched Roier play hardcore Minecraft or purgatory or the start of the qsmp back in March-April from Roiers pov knows he usually gets geared quickly after an hour or two but Doied instead sees the world gen and the types of crops there are.

- Doied got downed a lot when in the spider cave. Now, that that cave was hard as shit but it’s crazy the amount of times he got downed xd, too be fair there was new mobs like that mimic chest de verga.

I dunno what else to over analyzing cause I made this post in the morning before going to a aquarium and I’m very tired -^-

[unmotivated-student]

Hey, take what I say with a grain of salt

It's not an analysis, it's more like my point of view, you may not agree with everything and that's perfectly fine :D ♡ [feel free to give your opinion in this post].

qRoier has been through so much [pain, loss, betrayal] and the emotional scars continue to accumulate.

He lost his son [Bobby died in his care], he lost Tilin and Juanaflipa too, also during purgatory he had to do horrible things like kill and hurt people who were important to him, all this in the hope of being able to save the eggs or at least some of them.

But in the end, he lost everyone who had cared about him [qFoolish, qJaiden, qCellbit... to mention a few but qCellbit being one of the "losses" that have the most weight in the current state of qRoier] and they could only save a single egg, it couldn't even have been one chosen by the winning team, it was a random choice by a roulette wheel making the whole purgatory thing feel even more pointless.

He left purgatory feeling alone and also with the feeling of having been used just for entertainment by the eye guy.

qRoier lost everything without gaining anything and that's the worst...

No, scratch that, one of the worst things for him may be that with the return of the eggs he's not even sure if he really lost these people, he doesn't know if they are alive, he doesn't know if they are well or if they are dying in some hole and seeing eggs in a coma is [maybe] a reminder of that possibility.

So it's no surprise to me that he tries to convince himself that those in the hospital are fake eggs or something like that.

It is easier to try to accept that they are no longer with him and that there is nothing that can be done than to think day and night how much they are probably suffering and that HE cannot do anything for them, it is easier than hoping they'll return only to have that hope mercilessly taken away from him.

Now, why do I think the possible loss of qCellbit has relevance to the current state of qRoier?

When they got married it was like making a pact to be there for each other through thick and thin [which Roier was willing to do] and they always trusted each other. Just before purgatory qCellbit confessed to qRoier that he had been killing the federation workers and asked him if he was willing to help him and accompany him down that dark path [obviously qRoier accepted], they went through a lot together during the purgatory [they even they decided to blow up together when the meteor didn't crush them] so I think qRoier was confident that if they didn't leave purgatory together, they would both die in it TOGETHER.

But that didn't happen, instead qRoier managed to get on the boat in the hope of finding qCellbit there and a few seconds before the whole egg island went to hell he only received one last goodbye and one last "i love you".

qCellbit decided to stay on Egg Island with Richarlyson but wanted his husband to be well.

He wanted him to be well and to live, to be safe back on Quesadilla Island, it was probably fine for qCellbit to leave like that, after all he no longer had many things tying him to Quesadilla Island and surely qCellbit didn't want qRoier to get hurt because of his own selfish decision.

Buuut, for qRoier that was the most selfish decision qCellbit could have made, it was like he had left him out of his plans, it's no wonder he feels abandoned, qCellbit He broke that pact they had and broke qRoier's trust [in a certain way] by not telling him that he didn't really want to go back to Quesadilla knowing that qRoier was willing to follow him wherever he went, knowing that qRoier was willing to stay with him, together.

And then there's Pepito... Oh Pepito.

I think qRoier has mixed feelings about Pepito, on the one hand he doesn't trust the federation at all [or anyone in general, but mainly the federation after everything they've done and what they did to him and Jaiden when Bobby died, not to mention that Roier probably believes that the federation was also responsible for purgatory [I'm not sure either if the eye guy is from the federation or not xd]] reason why I think it is understandable that he does not accept Pepito in the first instance, another thing that is not in Pepito's favor are qRoier's emotional scars [We already know, Bobby died and he doesn't want to replace him, he just lost a lot in purgatory [a very recent scar], his possible fear of forming bonds with other people or eggs, the fact that Richarlyson and Leo are in a coma and there is nothing he can do..] Pepito's arrival simply couldn't have been at a worse time.

I also feel that a part of qRoier knows that Pepito is not to blame for anything [or at least that's what part of him wants to believe] and deep down he cares about Pepito. Maybe seeing Pepito so happy and innocent, makes him think it's best to treat Pepito so roughly, not only to avoid getting too attached to Pepito [due to trauma, because it would be painful if Pepito died and also because the federation gave Pepito to him out of nowhere without prior notice] but also because he knows how much that island [and the federation] can break you and how much it can take from you, it is better to take away that innocence little by little himself than for the island to do it all at once, right?. [All those times qRoier has said that Pepito reminds him of him, makes me believe that qRoier sees in Pepito reflected the same innocence that he had in his first days on the island, excited to make friends and meet new people but what did all of that lead him to? To loneliness and pain, a lot of pain in fact].

He could very well walk away from Pepito completely but instead he keeps him [kind of] close because he knows that HE is the only thing Pepito has and maybe the closest thing to a family Pepito can ever have on that island.

At this point I think qRoier is afraid of loneliness, but he is even more afraid of being abandoned. He is isolating himself from everyone on the island, limiting his relationships so he doesn't have to have to go through that feeling of abandonment again.

Or rather, Quesadilla Island has taught him how dangerous and painful trust and the bonds one form with others can be.

And he doesn't want to feel any more pain so he is being even more careful about those things.

And today's stream highlights qRoier's trust issues for me.

They are a lot of thoughts thrown together in one post. I hope it makes sense ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ.

[pamela-lntt]

please ramble to your heart's content on spiderbit and orpheus eurydice

Sorry for the late reply, I needed to get home first before I could properly write this all out xd

First of all, I wanna preface this by pointing out that this whole ramble will be based on putting qCellbit and qRoier in the position of musical Orpheus and Eurydice (to be more specific, the Broadway version of Hadestown since the character's personalities do vary on every album) and I've been a HUGE fan of Hadestown for years now (my first introduction to this musical was the live album, I heard it for the first time while at the airport but that's besides the point) and I connect basically anything I like to it in some way so I've given this a lot of thought and love.

Ramble under the "read more", I can't promise to be short:

Alright so, the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, as told through the musical, in short is: The seasons are off-balanced making summers short and winters long due to Hades and Persephone having a rocky marriage, Eurydice arrives to wherever Orpheus lives in search of warmth from the winter, Orpheus and Eurydice fall in love, Eurydice makes a deal with Hades in exchange for protection from the harsh weather aka she dies, Orpheus travels to Hadestown by foot instead of taking the train like others would to get Eurydice back, Orpheus convinces Persephone and the Workers to hear him out which leads to Hades hearing him out, Hades and Persephone's love gets re-ignited by Orpheus' song, Hades lets them leave with the condition that Orpheus can't look behind him to see Eurydice is coming with or else she'll stay in Hadestown, Doubt comes in and Orpheus turns around.

With just the plot in mind, people would immediately jump to qCellbit as Eurydice and qRoier as Orpheus because of what happened at the end of Purgatory (qCellbit staying on the island), but I see it as the other way around especially when taking into account Orpheus and Eurydice's backstories, personalities, and train-of-thoughts, in other words, why they chose to do what they did.

I'll justify both of them separately and at the end I'll weave them together on a nice little conclusion

qRoier as Eurydice

I'll start with qRoier since I'm more familiar with his character because I watch Roier's streams a lot.

Eurydice in the musical is introduced as "a lonely girl coming in from the cold" and her whole character has an emphasis on loneliness being a prominent constant in her life before meeting Orpheus alongside always being followed by The Fates (which is a more poetic way to say she is always on the brink of death due to her nomad lifestyle). I see qRoier as a survivalist, which is my way of saying that if he lived in this universe (the Hadestown universe) he'd definitely take a similar approach of survival as Eurydice especially if qSpreen and qQuackity's betrayal also occurs in this storyline: "People turn on you just like the wind / Everybody is a fair-weather friend / In the end you're better off alone / Any way the wind goes"

When it comes to meeting Orpheus, at first she jokes with him due to how upfront he was on proposing to her the moment they met, but ends up being wooed by him with the help of Hermes wing-manning a bit and Orpheus' song alongside Orpheus' positivity of the world and devotion to her. I'm positive qCellbit wouldn't have as much positivity as Orpheus does, but the devotion and the song is still there and the song was what sealed the deal for Eurydice because she was impressed and captivated by how a simple melody could create a flower out of thin air. Whenever I hear Eurydice's jokes in the song Come Home With Me I can totally see qRoier making the same jokes and playing along just like Eurydice did in Wedding Song.

Jumping ahead to Eurydice's decision to take Hades offer of going to the underworld, Eurydice has faith in Orpheus, faith that he'll finish the song and spring will indeed come again, but they still need to survive the winter. qRoier has faith on qCellbit, always has, even before they got married: "I can give you time, man, no worries. I can trust you, 100%, man." But, as the Fates say "You can have your principles when you've got a belly full / But hunger has a way with you / There's no telling what you're gonna do when the chips are down"

I'll talk about the rest of the story soon...

qCellbit as Orpheus

Like I mentioned before, I am positive that qCellbit doesn't have the same positivity Orpheus has, but the devotion is still there. He was the one who proposed to qRoier (thanks to some nudging from Richarlyson) and constantly brings up they are married. I'd even take into consideration that one clip of Cellbit telling Richarlyson that it was obvious they would get married by day 2 of them knowing each other, like Orpheus sings: "I don't know how or why / Or who am I that I should get to hold you / But when I saw you all alone against the sky / It's like I’d known you all along" Even his wedding vows are similar in meaning to something Orpheus sings to Eurydice: "I'm gonna hold you forever / The wind will never change on us / Long as we stay with each other" and both qRoier and qCellbit would 100% go to the ends of the Earth for each other.

But just like Orpheus, qCellbit can get engulfed in his work and not notice the things happening around him: "[...] Poor boy working on a song / [...] He did not see the storm coming on" which was ultimately what led to Eurydice's death, Orpheus was too preoccupied trying to finish his song that he didn't hear Eurydice's cry for help. And yet, if qCellbit found out qRoier was in trouble?: "Just how far would you go for her? | To the end of time / To the end of the earth" + " [...] But that ain't easy walkin', Jack / It ain't for the sensitive of soul / So do you really wanna go? | With all my heart"

I'd even consider Orpheus' ability to get Persephone and the Workers on his side something qCellbit is fully capable of doing as well, especially with the knowledge that in Quesadilla Island he's a pretty respected person due to his determination of taking down the Federation and leadership in The Order, a mindset similar to that of Orpheus towards Hades and his industrial empire: "And the ones who speak the words / Always say it is the last / And no answer will be heard / To the question no one asks / So I'm askin' if it's true / I'm askin' me and you / And you / And you / I believe our answer matters more than anything they say"

qCellbit & qRoier as Orpheus & Eurydice

From now on I'll focus more than anything on Orpheus and Eurydice's trip out of Hadestown and it's conclusion and how it fits with the actions qCellbit and qRoier would take in their respective roles.

Just like I've mentioned that qRoier has a deep trust and faith on qCellbit, qCellbit does as well on qRoier, but qCellbit knows he himself is flawed, something he got reinforced with the whole situation with killing Abueloier and how everything went downhill between them after that only for them to pick up the pieces and try again. qCellbit told qRoier about his past, and qRoier accepted it and didn't love him any less for it and reassured qCellbit about it (even supporting him on his hunt for the Federation workers).

But, anyone would question if their lover trusts them the same way after betraying them, in a way. qCellbit, just like Orpheus, was unable to come to their lover's need which led to their death and they can't be sure if their lover even wants to go back with them after that. However, of course qRoier and Eurydice want to go back, their trust didn't waiver because they came looking for them, they came to get them back: "Are you sure you wanna go? | Take me home."

Nevertheless, that doesn't stop doubt from creeping in from the corners: "Every coward seems courageous in the safety of a crowd / Bravery can be contagious when the band is playing loud / Nothing makes a man so bold / As a woman's smile and a hand to hold / But all alone his blood runs thin / And doubt comes- doubt comes in"

qCellbit, just like Orpheus, would start questioning whether this is true, if the literal god of Hell actually allowed them to leave or if it's simply a trap, it's in his nature to question, after all: "Who am I? / Who am I against him? / Who am I? / Why would he let me win? / Why would he let her go? / Who am I to think that he wouldn't deceive me just to make me leave alone?" + "Is this a trap that's bein' laid for me? / Is this a trick that's bein' played on me?" And within that questioning would resurface the uncertainty of qRoier and Eurydice's trust towards them: "Who am I? / Where do I think I'm goin'? / Who am I? / Why am I all alone? / Who do I think I am? / Who am I to think that she would follow me into the cold and dark again?"

Meanwhile qRoier and Eurydice are right behind: "Orpheus / Are you listening? / I am right here / And I will be to the end" + "Orpheus / You are not alone / I am right behind you / And I have been all along"

In the end, qCellbit and Orpheus turn around, and lose qRoier and Eurydice forever, but qRoier and Eurydice's love for them never faltered.

"Think they'll make it?"

"I don't know"

"Hades, you let them go"

"I let them try"

(I hope this makes sense I tried to not write too much / ramble about Hadestown itself but I have a lot of feelings for this musical aaah)

@atthebell's SPIDERBIT WEEK DAY SIX: it couple | enigma revisiting the coffee shop au for this one, which you can read here! consider this a couple months or so post first date :> featuring: qroier being hopelessly in love and qcellbit being a total fucking nerd (/affectionate. and also hopelessly in love) this is a little lengthy like the last one my apologies-

"Roier, I can hear you thinking from here, man."

Roier abruptly stands from his spot leaning against the counter. "Perdón."

"Keep thinking that hard and you're going to destroy your last functioning brain cell." Mariana eyes his best friend. "Are you still trying to ask that guy out?"

"Yes," he answers, exasperated. "I don't know what the fuck to do."

"Just fucking ask him, man! It's not hard."

"I don't want to just ask, man! I want to do something cool for him, you know? He deserves it." Roier eyes Mariana right back. "Besides, I don't think you're allowed to offer relationship advice. You and Slime just started making out every day and eventually slapped a label on it."

Mariana looks smug and punchable. "And we're engaged now."

Roier only flips him off, leaning back against the counter and returning to his moping pondering. The other barista huffs after a few seconds, finally attempting to make himself useful. "Well, what does he like?"

"He's an investigator," is how Roier answers, "he—"

It's like a flip is switched in his brain, and he shoots back upright. "That's it! I know!" And before Mariana can question it, he's rushing out back to grab his phone.

When he returns, he's near-silent for the next several minutes upon grabbing a pen and napkin, save for occasional mumbling to himself as he studies intently whatever is on his phone screen.

Mariana doesn't bother stepping over yet, watching as Roier eventually starts writing something down on the napkin. Only when the pen has been capped, and Roier sighs to himself, seemingly satisfied, does he finally question the other again. "Happy now?"

Roier nods, smiling. "Sí."

(And so it goes.)

...

“And someone left this on one of the tables?”

Roier nodded. “Sí. Shortly before my shift ended.”

Cellbit seems mildly skeptical, but he doesn’t question it. Besides, who would he be to pass up solving a jumbled mess of letters?

“Well, it’s not a Caesar cipher. Doesn���t make sense. But…” He leans down, reaching for his satchel and rummaging through its contents before he finds a piece of paper, placing it on the coffee table alongside the napkin.

Intrigued, Roier scoots closer from their spot on his couch, hooking his chin over Cellbit’s shoulder. It looks like a table, but it’s full of letters instead of numbers. “What is that?”

(It’s just to get a closer look.)

(Cellbit wills his cheeks to cool down.)

“It’s for a Vigenère cipher. The letters in the middle are for all the encrypted letters. The left-hand column is the alphabet for whatever the key is, and the top row is the plaintext, or the 'normal' letters, if you will. In this case, it's what we're going to solve for."

(Cellbit explaining is leagues better than reading a bunch of words on a screen.)

(He could listen to Cellbit talk all day.)

“So how exactly do you solve it?” Roier asks. He has somewhat of an idea, but it was mostly him filling out the criteria on the website to encrypt it for him.

“I want to try and figure out the key first. I’m guessing the little coffee cup in the corner here has something to do it.” Cellbit points to the little doodle in the bottom right-hand corner, thinking for a moment. “It might not work, but let’s say the key is the word café. Vigenères are polyalphabetic ciphers; it utilizes multiple Caesar ciphers inside of itself, but the increments depend on whatever the key is— sorry, not important— polyalphabetic just means that they—"

“Use multiple alphabets?”

Cellbit smiles, and warmth blooms in Roier’s chest. “Yes!”

He pulls a pen from his chest jacket pocket. “We’re going to repeat café until it matches the length of the message.” He starts writing the letters underneath the cipher, continuing to talk. “We’re only going to be using the C, A, F, and E letters on the left-hand column, none of the others. Let me just finish this…”

Roier waits patiently until Cellbit gets to the last letter. When he does, he reaches for the table he’d pulled out. “Okay! So, now, to actually decipher it, we’re going to take the first letter of the key, C, and we’re going to locate the first letter of the cryptic message, Y, in C's row.” Cellbit’s pen lands on the letter Y. “Next, we’re going to follow that up to the top row for the plaintext.” The pen travels up. “W. So, the first letter of the decrypted message is W. Does that make sense?"

The barista nods as the investigator glances over to check. "Yeah. You're very smart, gatinho, you know that?"

Cellbit chuckles. "Gracias, guapito."

With that, he starts to work on decoding the rest of the cipher. Roier can't help but marvel at the speed he's able to work at - and doing it manually at that, not just putting it through online like he did. But Cellbit solving it fast is doing nothing for his nerves, his heartbeat starting to pick up.

He lets the other work quietly, trying not to shuffle and shift too much from his place leaning against him. He can't tell if he's regretting this or not, with the way the anticipation is killing him.

(But he also knows shit like this makes Cellbit happy, so maybe it won't be the complete end of the world.)

When Cellbit gets to the last word, though, he starts to slow down, processing exactly what the message is in front of him. He becomes acutely aware of Roier's head on his shoulder, the way his dark eyes are flitting back and forth between him and the papers, and pieces start clicking into place.

But he finishes it, because he knows Roier made it. Because he's stunned someone would go to this length for him. And so, the decoded cipher stares back up at him.

(WILL YOU BE MY BOYFRIEND)

Cellbit reads it back over to himself, once, twice, heart hammering in his chest as a haziness washes over him. He feels Roier lift his head, momentarily mourning the loss of contact, but wills his voice to work. "Roier..?"

"Well?" Roier asks after a moment, and Cellbit feels brave enough to glance over at him. They lock eyes, and he looks just as nervous as Cellbit feels, if not more. "Will you?"

For a moment, Cellbit doesn't move, expression unreadable, and Roier wonders if maybe this was a mistake after all. But then he sits upright, and orients to face him. "Cellbo—?"

He's effectively cut off by lips pressing against his, one of Cellbit's hands cupping his face as the other rests against the back of his neck.

Roier's eyes close immediately, melting into it as one arm wraps around the investigator's neck. His other hand goes up, threading through Cellbit's hair and subconsciously deepening the kiss.

(It feels warm, it feels right.)

They only pull apart when their lungs demand oxygen, foreheads resting together.

"Does that answer your question, guapito?" Cellbit breathes out.

Roier grins. "I think I need a little more clarification, gatinho."

Cellbit can't help but laugh. "Let me try again, then."

"By all means."

And somehow, the second kiss is almost better than the first.

(Enigma solved.)
