#gameoden spoilers

[laiqualaurelote]

bringing back my very first DBDA fic in the light of Recent Cameo Revelations because, as @tumblerislovetumblerislife has pointed out, I have now been hit by Apollo's dodgeball of prophecy not once, but twice, and I will make it everyone's problem:

in this city there's a thousand things I want to say to you

“You’ve not been to see that Cat King again, have you?” Edwin clears his throat and adjusts his already-perfect bowtie. “And what if I have?” “Mate,” says Charles in dismay. “I thought that was trouble we were well shot of. What could you possibly want with that tosser?” “Research,” says Edwin, like butter wouldn’t melt in his mouth.

not to mention talk dirty to me, in which @mirrorleaf fills in the blanks for me. Anyway I'm going for a hat trick, anyone want to guess what else I've accidentally prophesied in my fics, taking bets now

that gameoden, huh?

[resourcds]

the glory of a cancellation is that if u don't like what they hinted would've been in s2 u can simply ignore it bc it did not happen ❤️

George: "What's a server?"

Jayden: "I'll explain later."

Hi, huge thanks for doing the cameos! Here’s the asks, but no worries if you can't answer all of them:

What hobbies do you think Charles & Edwin picked up over the years?

C & E go on a 1 week holiday. Where do they go what do they do, etc?

Could you talk about something you like that the other doesn’t like/get?

And could you pretty please say hi to our server mod Nix for being wonderful?

Thanks again for taking the time to do all these, we really appreciate it. We hope you had fun this week! And thank you for being so wonderful in DBD, it really does matter a lot to us. We're excited to see your future projects, love to Raffy and Luna!

Did I have a really bad night last night in no small part because of a s2 spoiler? Yes. Did I have a Payneland Meltdown? Sure.

But this morning I have gained clarity, and a couple of things have made me feel better about some of the spoilers. I'm going to share them with you in hopes that it will quell some anxiety.

George and Jayden seem extremely excited about the season 2 that they read. It appears super genuine in the new Gameodens, and even if you wanted to argue that it was For the Hype, George also seemed really pumped about them before the show was canceled. They don't seem like performative people regardless, but past behavior also indicates that, yes, the excitement is real.

Both Jayden and George expressed that Charles and Edwin are soulmates. They have read all of the available scripts, and they are still expressing that (very true) sentiment.

They also explicitly said that Edwin and Charles are basically married anyway and that "dating" would be a "step down" for them.

Re: the "fight" that triggered my Episode last night: there is genuinely no way that the boys would have fought for an entire season, let alone forever. It wouldn't make sense and would be antithetical to the entire point of the show. Not to mention George and Jayden having professed them soulmates! "Tense for a lot of it" could mean many things, including that things were tense for a lot of the fight (rather than the season) and got less tense as the fight progressed. "A lot of it" could also just mean 1-2 episodes since they don't really fight.

George and Jayden also explicitly said that disagreements could be healthy, so I'm going to believe that they meant they came out stronger on the other side.

Also, as a kind soul in my comments last night said, there's really nothing for them to fight over besides each other. It probably would have been out of love anyway.

Re: the Catwin sex. Disclaimer is that I don't mind this because I've always thought it would be an interesting plot point. BUT, as a hardcore Payneland shipper myself,I understand why people might not like it. Please remember that it's part of a story! It's the middle of a story, not the ending! Catwin is likely, as I hoped for, a step on the journey toward Edwin figuring out that he only wants these experiences with Charles. Every road leads back to them.

I actually think that Jayden and George might have said that all roads lead to them as well in one of the Gameodens, but I don't know where. Maybe I dreamed it.

We are getting tiny little snippets of 8 hours worth of television. We have maybe a collective 150-character Tweet and 1.5 minutes of out-of-context video spoilers. Catastrophizing doesn't make any logical sense. (I'm not talking down to anyone here, I promise. I'm repeating the mantra I told myself for like an hour last night.)

Season 2 was also not intended to be the last season! They wanted 6! This is Act 2 of 6. It's not even the middle of the story!

My final cameo of this season featuring a cameo within a cameo, some vague Season 2 spoilers?? (🦊🐇) and a comic close-up.

See you all next Gameoden Season! (manifesting)

"Shoutout to my Nandos Periperi Truthers😌🙏 Cat King themed Gameoden 👑 with a season 2 spoiler 😱😱 #SaveDeadBoyDetectives #AsTheFrenchSayMerde

"Heading out for an appointment but I am also taking a step back and wondering if this is an allusion to the Gay Bar scene that was already spoiled? Because that would count as an adult experience too🤔🤔

#SaveDeadBoyDetectives #AsTheFrenchSayMerde"

Because we saw George wearing the Cat King bracelet on Gameoden Day 2 and Lukas Gage seems fun to work with, here's some CK questions: Would Edwin tell Charles about his and CK's last convo in episode 8? How would C react? Does E still feel animosity towards CK? Do you think CK truly fell for E, and if so, why (other than just appearances)? Can C ever be friends with CK knowing CK saved both their lives (in a very hands-off way)? Thank you both for this very fun-filled week :)

"here’s my gameoden that i am totally so normal about :) second clip contains kinda spoilers that i’ll probably never stop thinking about #OuchMyGhostSkin #SaveDeadBoyDetectives"

Hi Georgeden, my questions are silly.

If you swapped bodies for a day, what would you do? I'd love to see a Jayden impersonation of Edwin/George and a George impersonation of Charles/Jayden.

If you could work in a film together again, what would you like it to be?

[deadboydetectives-confessions]

Originally, I avoided watching all the Gameoden videos being posted because it left a sour taste in my mouth, knowing Jayden won't be interacting with the fandom anymore after this. It just didn't feel right?? But then we started getting s2 spoilers and now I'm just sad all over again because if they're able to give out spoilers like that (no matter how vague) it lessens the probability of having a s2 more and more, no? Now I don't watch the videos, nor do I scroll through the fandom tag daily anymore because as much as I love this show, I've just lost all hope
