#dsmp november 16th

[lilyminer]

I keep trying to summarize or make grand, all encompassing statements about dsmp-c!Philza as a character but I keep running into the same problem. And maybe someone more skilled in character analysis than me would be able to work around this issue. But everything I try to say about how c!Philza was actually played by Phil keeps getting thrown off by Fucking November 16th. And it’s so dumb because it was originally planned that c!Wilbur would die in the actual explosion, which means my carefully constructed character analysis keeps being thrown off by god damn minecraft-based technical issues 🥲.

C!Philza is such a morally complex, tortured, strangely empathetic (despite the circumstances) character but it’s so hard to reconcile any of his actual character motivations and actions with the objective fact he murdered his suicidal son after like, a minute of begging. I’m not saying without this he’d be a morally good character, of course not. I just find him so much more compelling as a character when removed from the spur of the moment actions which ooc wise, were never part of the plan.

Idk, I just look at his character after the end of his story. I look at the doomsday attack and think “yeah that’s totally in character for him” but I just can’t say the same for the 16th. I’ve never been able to get in the characters head in that moment, only the cc’s, which, ya know, kinda takes me out of the fiction.

You know the dsmp fandom had its several negatives but it's still one of my favourite fandom experiences of all time. It was so chaotic but it was so earnest. It felt like everything was some big fandom inside joke. It was so silly. It was poetic at times. I don't think I've ever seen a fandom with so much literary and metatextual analysis (though some have gotten close). It honestly is what got me into narrative analysis. I just love how some of us made jokes and we all ran with it. It was a mess at times but God it was so fun. DSMPblr. I will always love you.

November 16th.

welcome back pogbur

I don't know why, but today I dreamed about L'manberg. I was very confused because I haven't thought about L'manberg as a country for a while, you know?

But then I remembered, today is November 16th. Of course something happened today that many will remember.
