old wip i found today. from pre-s6 times. i actually quite like this

Losers... (i say as i sink into the ground) mapicc is very important to me actually. he is so improtnat to me. i don't write about him enough.

i really like the comparison between planet and mapicc (who are Very Different characters) as bacon's teammates.

especially in the line, "being declared something worth fighting for".

i don't think i completely understand mapicc's character, but i think this is very mapicc. his loyalty, his willingness to let go of his status of powerful scary good pvper to team with bacon waffles zero. the Guy who sucks at pvp. mapicc's selfless in that regard.

while... s5 planet is unable to fight (metaphorically) his desire to be powerful, not even for the sake of bacon. planet is powerful physically at the beginning of s5, but still weak at the end of the day. weak in the way that he cannot face his closest ally in s4 after killing him in cold blood. completely icing him out after everything, like it all means nothing. it's selfish. it's cruel. i'd imagine it would be painful as fuck.

so in s5, we see mapicc, reduced down to a husk of his physical strength seen in s4 by choosing to team with bacon. planet, more powerful than they've ever been. mapicc, who does the things planet does not, sacrificing his status for bacon. planet, who leaves bacon behind, so easily, because hearts mean more. the parallels!! the contrast!!

bacon and mapicc are people from two entirely different worlds (s4) and you'd think they would be incompatible. but they work. they work so well. this is deeply upsetting actually
