i think the reason i find interactive introverts so interesting is because they wanted to say so much with it that they end up adressing in terrible influence. in interactive introverts they seem to really want to talk about the relationship they have with their auidence and how the nature of a parasocial relationship can be harmful. this seems to be a point they are so desperate to make but also feel the pressure to entertain and give the audience a good time, thus inadvertently proving their point. In a lot of ways interactive introverts is a specatcle, dnp cutting themselves open for the audience and saying is this entertaining? are you entertained yet?! the simulation scene at the start of the show is the appetiser for all that there is to come, and the start of a reoccuring theme. that this action will have consequences

in the simulation scene, the audience puppet around an ai dan and phil who act as they would and still feel the real pain and embarassment the real dan and phil would. dan and phil watch this unfold with a growing worry as the audience seem to pick all of the options that cause them suffering and for some reason take delight in it! this causes them to think about a question, how far are we willing to take this? now the wheel scene comes around and theyre curious about how bloodthirsty their audience could possibly be, so they ask and sit in horror as their audience seems to yet again take this with great excitement. dan watches in horror as this goes on and he's scared, she start pleading, begging to the audience, i'm a person too!! , as they sit there completely helpless to what's happening. this is where the audience experiences some slight trepidation, the words this is your fault and your actions have consequences hard to take lightly or brush off.

now the finale comes and there is nothing anyone can do but watch as the two finally understand that their pain is just a price to pay for others enjoyment and the audience can do nothing but helplessley watch as the two both painfully answer questions wrong. and theres nothing they can do now, dan and phil have been told this is what they wanted, is this not what you wanted? theres no going back now, we told you this would have consequences, its not our fault if you weren't listening. so they have to just sit and watch as dnp both keep smiling, pretending not to flinch from the pain.

they play themsleves off the stage, with the same sort of promise, no matter the pain we will give you what you want, but there seems to be something different in the air, because what the audience doesn't know, is that this is a goodbye.

in a lot of ways interactive introverts is a tragedy of two boys who were burned by the very fire that gave them life (insert dinof joke) and the danger of idolism and celebrity culture. but it is also the light at the end of the tunnel for them, especially dan who can put this all behind him and know she doesn't have to grit a smile anymore and finally gets to rest.

the thing that really gets to me that they talk about in terrible influence is, despite all of this, they still decided to come back! the songs in the preshow playlists about toxic relationships are painfully accurate, and the show itself questions if there is such a thing as a healthy creator audience relationship. the show does not answer this question but holds the sentiment that despite all of this, despite all the bad, they want to make it work, but this time on their own terms and thats beautiful to me.

Interactive Introverts

someone replied to my ii and tit thing like what about tatinof, and i just feel like tatinof isn't on the same thematic narrative as ii and tit. tatinof is very explicitly dan and phil playing characters based on themselves, where as ii was SUPPOSEDLY dnp getting "More Real" and then tit was like. the closest on stage they have been to who they actually are. tatinof also has a sort of hero's journey story (albeit a very loose one) whereas ii and tit didnt really have that structure. theyre more like social experiments without a concrete conclusion. dnp intentionally never answer the questions they set out with at the beginning of the two shows (ii: should we give the people what they want?, tit: are we a terrible influence?) there's no fundamental question trying to be answered in tatinof, it is performed as a story of two youtubers who find themselves in a weird internet-explosion dimension and are trying to get back home. this was at a point where dnp werent questioning if they should give the people what they want, because they were going to anyway. they werent thinking about if theyre bad influences because they didnt see themselves as having a huge influence on us in that way, and their audience was still pretty young so they had yet to see how they have influenced us as fully grown adults.

i guess maybe you could think of the existential crisis moment as the questions theyre trying to answer? and the theme of feeling like theyre not in control of their actions and such, but narratively speaking it was dil controlling them. the only part that was truly controlled by the audience was the fanfiction segment, which i feel is appropriate like we're the ones who write that shit lol but even the audience submitted stuff like the support phone line and weird kid things were still somewhat in dnp's control.
