the way that immediately after being at the show i bought a ticket for another, and it wasn’t just because i love them and i loved the show but because i met the best people ever and i felt so welcomed in the fandom it was such a safe and wholesome space :,) anyone who’s thinking of getting tickets and is in on the fence because they’re scared of going alone or not enjoying the vibes i recommend it 100% (and you can always find twitter or discord group chats to talk to people beforehand!) i also don’t want anyone to miss this amazing show and the opportunity to see dan and phil at their happiest and most free
awww i’m so so happy for you that’s lovely!!! <3 i agree it’s so incredibly worth it whether you’re going by yourself or with friends, cause either way you’ll be in a room full of people you have something in common with and maybe you’ll even make new friends!! and dan and phil’s happiness is so visible even in videos, i can only imagine how heartwarming it is to see them like that in person :’)

14
14 pls
did 14 already but i will never pass up an opportunity to talk!
once upon a dream has been stuck in my head for EVER like i keep thinking about it i might actually make it tlatm wil's theme like innards is tlatm q's theme but it's not goth so i'm tentative
angsty spoilers below but basically the gist is it's such a great tragic wilbur song ough i feel so deranged
so the thing is sleeping beauty came out the year wilbur was born, so they took him to the cinema and watched the movie with tiny baby wilba. his mother immediately took a liking to once upon a dream, so from that day forward they'd sing the song to calm wilbur down or get him to sleep. even just humming it would make him stop crying
he grew up knowing every word to the song but as home video hadn't been invented yet he'd never truly remembered the movie
that is until the 1970 and 1979 rereleases when he was 11 and 20 respectively and he was fucking ENCHANTED (not the movie the verb) and now dances the song by memory imagining some vague future prince with him
the tragic part is that in 1985, a year after he was turned, he took a 13 year long sleep (not unlike sleeping beauty but he wasn't woken up by true love's kiss and he wasn't cursed by any evil fairy but himself) and MISSED the official 1986 and 1995 rereleases of sleeping beauty in theaters, which absolutely destroyed him when he woke up and realised
so when he awoke in 1998 he was able to get a secondhand tape (from the 1997 vhs releases) and finally have a copy for himself. obviously the fiest thing his dumbass does is memorise the entire thing line by line down to the choreography
fast forward to present day he also has it on dvd and hard drive and has the link for the pirated version bookmarked on chrome (he didn't wanna pay for disney+). movie date night with quackity? sleeping beauty motherfucker
one day they get close enough to the point where they can sing the song together <3 ougg so romantic right where's the angst here???
WELL
remember wilbur's mother that i mentioned earlier?
phil used to tell wilbur a bedtime story, saying that he was a vampire and his mother was a vampire queen / grim reaper / actual God / etc (the story details changed at random), and she blessed him with a human child as a test of their relationship. if the child could live its whole life without phil turning it into a vampire, they could be together
wilbur used to daydream about one day seeing his mother again, because obviously phil would never turn him into a vampire right!!! right???
on november 16, 1985, phil breaks the only promise he ever made.
in that way, once upon a dream is not just about a true love fairytale but also the lullaby his mother sung to him that he memotised and repeated hoping to see her again one day and immediately know her
yippie!

CHAPTER FOUR
Tumblr media
Before Brooklyn knew it, she was allowed to go to her new home. She was nervous. It had been a week since the brunette had direct messaged Dan on twitter. A week of waiting in the orphanage. A week of agony, impatient-ness, and bruised ribs. 
But it was also a week of imagining. Imagining what her life was going to be, imagining what her new adoptive parents would be like. Imagining how this is going to affect her relationships, or improve her life.
She was finishing packing her things as a knock was placed on her door. Brooklyn quickly shoved a small music box into her backpack and zipped the bag. The rest of her suit cases and bags were in the SUV outside.
"You ready to go?" A male voice spoke, making Brooks heart pound with anxiety. She was met with Dan's face at the door. He was taller than she imagined. 
"Uhm.. Yeah. I think so. I just need to say goodbye to Amber" she said, a half smile on her face.
She slung the backpack over one shoulder, and headed past the man. As she walked past him, she was hit with a scent of cologne. It was hard to explain, but he smelled-- warm. Safe.
She walked the hall, and opened Amber's door. Amber met Brooklyn's eyes, and she couldn't help but notice that Amber didn't have a hint of sadness in her face. Brooklyn was given this golden opportunity, and both of the girls knew that she couldn't say no. 
It was something they both dreamed of, and it was finally ACTUALLY happening. 
"I'm so proud of you, Lyn" she spoke, pulling her into a hug.
"I'm really going to miss you" Brooklyn spoke back, a bitter-sweet smile on her face.
 "I know, but we can video chat every day, and I'll visit you every time Ms. Bradford lets me out" 
There was a silent agreement between the two that Brooklyn would sneak Amber out. Its something they joked about, and knew were something that was possible now.
"I know, but is it really going to be the same?" 
Amber's mouth twisted. "No. But I don't think that's a bad thing." 
Brook shifted her weight, pulling Amber into a hug.
"And hey, you better not go and forget about me if you get famous!" The ginger girl fully joked. 
"That could NEVER happen. If anything, you'll be way more famous before I ever am."
The two shared a moment before saying their goodbyes, and she was off.
She shut the orphanage doors behind her, and took a photo of the outside sign.
When she got to the truck, Phil was sitting in the passenger seat, and Dan was sat behind the drivers side. She quickly realized that the two had grabbed a Uber.
"Oh.." She spoke.
"Are you alright?" Phil asked, turning to face her.
"Yeah! I've just never been in an Uber before. Like, Ever." She laughed before climbing into the seat and buckling up, realizing that she were living through a memory she would remember forever.
"Oh, well, welcome to the Uber club!" the driver spoke, smiling. "Is the AC okay? I can turn it up if you need." he finished.
Time passed as they drove, and Brooklyn listened to the music on the radio. She couldn't identify the singer, but she was more focused on the the world in front of her.
She took photos on her old phone, fascinated at all the things she had seen before, but never truly  SEEN. She wanted to remember this forever.
The sights slowly turned into the city as they turned the corner and the SUV came to a stop.
The three all climbed out off the car, collecting all the luggage and bags from the boot. They thanked the driver, ensured they would tip, stood in front of the flats as Phil quickly checked the mail out front.
Brooklyn stood staring up at the tall building, feeling dizzy at how high up and how far back she had to tilt her head to see the top of the building. The three of them soon all carded inside and into Brooklyn's new home.
Her heart was pounding as she walked in, and recognized the house from her best friends videos. 
It was surreal. 
The two walked her to a bare room with a bed frame and a mattress, a desk, a lamp, and a wardrobe. "We can buy some things to make your room feel more like... well, yours." Phil spoke, as she awed at her new room. 
Compared to her room at the orphanage, this room felt huge. There was more space, a closet, and a window on the side. The walls were clean, and it didn't smell of must. 
It was more than Brooklyn could ask for. 
"Thank you.." she said, setting her bags down and sitting on the bed. 
"We have a guest room across the hall you can sleep in tonight, and Phil and I can set up your stuff for you tomorrow" Dan spoke, his voice tired. It was getting late, and the sun had already begun to set. 
"We should order some Pizza" Phil said, meeting Dan's eyes. It were almost as if he were asking his counter part for permission.
Brooklyn still didn't know the status of the two.
But two friend don't usually adopt somebody together, do they.
Soon, pizza was ordered and delivered, and Brooklyn was sat in the guest bed, TV playing in the background; and surrounded by warmth. She took small bites of her pizza every once in awhile as she texted on her phone. 
She filled her best friend in on her day, and her plans for the proceeding day. She listened to Amber speak about her day as well.
The two made plans to meet up, and hang out at the flat, possibly write something together.
That was something the two picked up from the orphanage. Having fun isn't easy to do when you're being worked to the bone the way they were, so they found their own ways to have fun.
They wrote music, and poetry. They sang, and learned how to dance the best they could. Between YouTube videos, and help from some of the other girls; the two picked up some useful skills. They just hadn't realized it.
Not a lot of good came from Brightside. Only pain, suffering, and labored work. Homework time was hell to focus during, and there was little off-time. We cleaned all the time, and did everything for ourselves.
In hindsight, Brooklyn learned to cook, do the laundry, fix a sink, she knew her first aid training, and she was really good at maths. She could sing, and dance, and play soccer. She learned to write cursive from watching the girls around her that had now left or found a family. 
She learned the world wasn't always a nice place.
Soon, the night slowly faded to darkness as Brooklyn fell asleep. Her body finally, for the first time in Brooklyn's entire life, feeling at peace.

sigh. people are still complaining about her and their other editor kris, calling it "gen z culture" and "mr beast style editing" ???
first of all, they aren't going for "quality over quantity". all the videos they put out have been high quality, they know what their audience likes - to me (and a lot of others) it seems like they are just relaxing and having fun with what they are creating. them hiring editors just gives them more time to spend on other projects or hell, even just relaxing in their personal life.
secondly, i know people like to make gifs of moments and that's cool, i think they're great especially on here. but what dan and phil focus on is VIDEOS. they don't owe you longer cuts to make it easier to gif, whether it's them or their editors working on the video. again, i will repeat my point from the first post of, they hired their editors for a reason so maybe chill. you can't expect their content to stay the exact same forever, everything still flows well and they are as entertaining/funny as ever.
last of all i just wanna say something about your constant comments. if it was a one off, like "oh i miss x about their old style" or even just saying "hey, i wish the editors did this a bit more" then fine. but outright stating you hate them because of this apparent gen z thing of cutting everything super fast? and how audio/visual issues are CLEARLY the editors fault, even though 99% of the time it will have been a recording issue on dan and phil's end, bearing in mind they will more than likely have to sign off on any edits before uploading them?? suggestions are one thing, actively shitting on the editors at every opportunity you get is another and it shouldn't be tolerated in ANY community.
maybe it's time for you to take a step back and breathe for a minute, if this era of content isn't working for you then you're free to leave - you don't need to stick around just to shit on everything they're currently doing, just because it's not like how it used to be. they've been making videos for over a decade, plus the hiatus was 5 years long. it's not gonna be the exact same as it was back then, whether it's edited by them, superseizer or kris.
DAPG editing
i find it hilarious that people are out here shitting on superseizer's editing like she doesn't know what's going on and can't see what you're saying. like yes babes she can see your posts about how she's fucking up everything with the audio and the jump cuts and has also seen your totally-not-a-death-threat, maybe don't do that? dnp hired her for a reason and clearly have to sign off on every video before uploading, chill tf out lmao

Excuse some random rambling after I watched Dan’s video again...
I keep thinking about all of Phil’s videos the first half of 2021 - the joint ones of course, but also how personal his solo videos were - and then the Stereo shows too...it really felt like DNP were building and building to something. I just remember feeling like we were all frogs in a pot that was slowly being boiled. And then…nothing. First around the Cereals video in the summer and then even more so by the release of Hometown Showdown, the vibe seemed to change.
But now it all sort of makes sense. From past “quiet times” we know there’s always a reason, but I couldn’t have imagined this. Dan dealing with the slowly dying hope and the canceled plans/”missed opportunities”, whatever they were, and then the final ‘this isn’t happening’ from YouTube. In the video when Dan talks about his response - sending the timeline of what he did - he switches to “we.” “We decided to...” etc. Maybe that’s the team he was working with, but maybe that’s also Phil. Dan was dealing with so much, and there’s no way Phil wasn’t effected by it too, or that it didn’t impact how he was interacting with YouTube. (I keep thinking about the weird-ass Google business videos he hosted...did he feel like he had to say yes to doing that?)
And the biggest thing - the original plan for Dan’s show to be done/start being released on his birthday. What might have happened for either or both of them in autumn 2021 if that had gone as he planned?!

J2 Main Panel Orlando Con 2022
During the Gold panel Jared was sweating buckets so for the Main panel staff put a fan on the floor which he was really happy about and whose idea was it for Jared to have that fan? I'm gonna leave y'all to form your own opinion but while he does not take direct credit when Jared noticed the fan on the floor Jensen tells him 'you're welcome' to which Jared happily replies 'I love you' so by logical deduction we can conclude that Mr. Ackles noticed his boy struggling with the heat and asked staff to provide a fan for the main panel. But like I said y'all from your own opinion x
And then Jared pointed out Jensen's new hair style cause of course he did, his man is looking hot he's gotta point it out x
Getting into the question portion of the panel kickin it off question number one is: Was there any particular scene or episode that was their favorite to shoot? Jared says every scene in Changing Channels, and in the case of the entire ep then French Mistake. Jensen says the Eye of the Tiger scene from Yellow Fever.
Jared mentions Jensen’s working with Phil Sgriccia again who directed that ep, and Jensen jokes to do more music videos because he also directed the Soldier Boy Solid Gold stuff and he teases there is a Robert Mitchum number that’s coming up. I'm excited to see that x
If they could have a superpower what would it be? Jensen says he’s been getting asked this question a lot at The Boys press junkets and he’s heard a variety of answers and explanations but he keeps landing back with flying. Every other power has repercussions; he feels like flying is pure and simple. Jared says he would like to swim like a fish because he’s fascinated with our oceans. That Jensen will take care of the sky and he’ll take care of the water. Even in answers about superpowers they’re such partners 💗
Was there a season, storyline, or episode that they did not expect to be a fan favorite and were surprised when people liked it? Angels. Jared says he and Jensen didn’t want the show to turn too political or religious because it’s not about religion. Then they started touching upon the theme with eps like Houses of the Holy and then s4 happened and the character of C was introduced and they were wondering if that was going to turn off the demo that wasn’t into religion. And they were assured that it wasn't about religion it was an expansion of the universe. Jensen says something they were able to do on the show was take risks and swing for the fences and a lot of the time it was well received.
Then. In the year of 2022. Jared did not miss the opportunity to bring back referring to G as a demon saying he married a demon. But now Jensen gets to jump in on the fun and says he married an angel. Which makes Jared let out a weird laugh and say his demon is really an angel in real life. And without missing a beat or opportunity very helpfully provided Jensen says "and mine's really a demon in real life." And then they laugh. Without a second thought they both took a shot at D and G. All I'mma say is that many a true word is said in jest ☕
Continuing on a fans English teacher is a fan of the show and really likes Dean a lot and they asked the fan if they could ask Jensen to call him a Bitch. So Jensen did 😂
They go from an easy question to a very difficult one. Of all the questions they’ve ever been asked, what would they answer differently?  The boys have no idea how to answer this, they are struggling so the fan changes the question. Has something they said ever been taken out of context and they didn't like it? Jensen replies, "oh yeah, that happens quite a bit." Jared says yes but he doesn't not like it, he understands that communication is difficult. He likes exploring ideas and thoughts and talking things out, and he doesn't get offended by other people's speech because maybe that's what they're feeling or exploring and he hopes he gets the same forgiveness. That sometimes when getting asked questions it's difficult to express yourself the way you'd like to; Jensen answers that they get asked probably more questions about themselves and about their work than most people do, and some of those questions are similar or repeated so they often give similar answers but as they have grown in their own lives as well as professionals those answers have also evolved. x
What is their ultimate favorite prank they’ve pulled and who is it on? The irony of them getting this question right after Jensen makes a comment about repetitive questions but anyways Jensen says a thing to know about him and Jared is that their pranks are not planned in advance, they see the opportunity and take it.
But there were pranks done to them in the past and a memorable one that's one of his favorites was when they had to climb down a manhole that had been built on the sound stage so when they got to the bottom it was closed it was like a 15 to 20 feet hole with a ladder so they climb down and after them came gallons of water. Kim Manners was the mastermind behind it, he had already gotten the shot he needed but he told them he needed another one and the whole crew was in on it to fill up giant buckets of water and drench them; and this thing was planned in advance, one of the crew members made sure to get Jensen's phone out of his pocket and they made an appointment for Jared because he had a cast on at the time so they made him an appointment in advance so he could get his cast changed for a dry one. Afterwards they spent like 10mins chasing Kim Manners around the set till they caught him and put him in a puddle of water and dragged him around. x
If there was a British adaptation of SPN who would they want playing them? Jensen says Tom Hardy. Jared says Benedict Cumberbatch. x
Jensen was asked about the Winchesters. The fan is excited for the character of Carlos and asks was it important for him to see that representation right from the start? And what is he most excited to see? He says yes, and Robbie did a great job on the character adding some amazing details and nuance that the actor who plays the role, Jojo, was able to do tremendous with; what he’s excited to see is what the fans think of the twists. That somebody told him during a meet and greet the day before that John didn’t know about hunting until Mary died and he replied that he’s well aware. That they're not tossing away 15yrs of story just how they're gonna get to it may not be what fans are expecting. I don't believe you sir. x
What’s the best part for them about being dads? Jared jokes going to conventions away from them. Jesus, Jared 😅 Then he gives his real answer which is rediscovering stuff, his kids make him appreaciate the little things and helping guide them as they discover things. Jensen says unprovoked I love yous, that his kiddos will randomly tell him I love you and Arrow will jump into his arms and give him a big hug and then cup his face and say "I love you, daddy" and then run off.  x
Before they move on to the next question Jared says I love you to Jensen because of what he just said about unprompted I love yous and somebody in the crowd says "he's not your daddy" 💀
I need ya'll to see those mens reactions because Jared is just like 'I'm not doing that one' and Jensen with all seriousness turns around and is like 'what was that?' and Jared is literally like 'no, no, no' and turns him around. Jensen was fully ready to play with fire and Jared did not let him 😂
Anyways, do they have funny stories about their pets? Jensen says he only has one pet a 16 year old, part blind mostly deaf 20-ish pound mutt and watching him now is both sad and entertaining because he runs into walls not full force just bumps into them. And he'll also just stare at his bowls, he'll go back and forth between staring at his water and kibble and then walk away, and Jensen doesn't know if he knows what he's doing cause he also has full blown dementia as well but as soon as he picks him he knows it's him, and he'll burrow his face into his neck and he knows its his dad 😭
Jared says Arlo is a trained service dog for anxiety for him, he has been trained for Jared and that he has helped with his nail biting because part of his training is to get him to stop doing that but that Arlo also easily gets stressed out so they joke that he's the only therapy dog that needs therapy. x
When he's talking about his nail biting Jared says Jensen also stops him, and I wanna point out a moment from a con last year that I had not noticed originally it just came to my attention now. But last year during one of the virtual cons that the boys did there's a moment where Jared starts biting his nail and when Jensen notices he knocks on the table infront of him and Jared just immediately stops. Husbands husbanding x
How do they feel going into the sets for The Boys and Walker after SPN ended, and the characters they're playing? Jared says that it would have been really difficult to quicly jump from spn to working on Walker but because of the shutdown he had time to develop and prepare for the show but also his character, and it was strange at first but he's done so much work in the industry that it was like a fish to water just a different ocean.
Jensen says he had a lot less on his plate than Jared did because they had been co-captains for years and now suddenly Jared was gonna be solo captain of a new ship and he doesn't know many people in their profession personally that is more equipped than Jared to that job and he's doing it now with grace and dignity and talent and success. That's lovely Jensen ❤️
Says he had a little less of an order, he was going into a very welcoming home. He didn't feel the preassure to prove himself but he did put the pressure on himself to not drop the ball and to earn his keep, so he did his best and stuck to what he knew and was comfortable with and was able to befriend the cast and the crew. But it was interesting cause it definetely wasn't spn, and he definetely did not have his co-captain there to help him and help guide him through what could have been rough waters. Luckily he made friends pretty quickly and it was a very welcoming crew. Mentions again that Antony Starr confessed to him that he was prepared not to like him but now he really likes him. x
What were some of the more memorable locations they filmed at? They mention places like Squamish, Bordertown, Riverview hospitals which they referred to as Stage 4 because of how often they filmed there, boundary bay which had the crossroads. Jared says he thinks the set he misses the most is the waterfront in Squamish because it was so beautiful. Jensen mentions the church from Sacrifice, that church was surrounded by a large tidal lake so the water rises and lowers and he found it very picturesque. Then when they went to film it was all covered with fog and it was raining, and they had to film the scene of the angels falling down so they were getting drenched and having to look up into the freezing rain 😆
Question for Jensen, how is it the same and how is it different working with Kripke again after so many years? He says there were a lot of similarities and familiarity because they kept in contact with Kripke over the years and he and Jared have remained good friends with the man so when the time came to work together again Jensen felt a comfortable familiriaty that gave him some confidence he probably wouldn't have had in a situation like this but at the same time it was different because the whole thing was bigger. He calls it Kripke unleashed, it's everything he couldn't do on network television. x
Last question! What got Jensen into voice acting? And would Jared do it again? Jensen says what got him into it was that he was given the opportunity. That getting into that genre is difficult but once you get your foot in the door the hard part is over and you get to enjoy doing these roles and it's a lot of fun and different from the on camera work. He just did another voice over project two weeks ago, and it's something he'll continue doing as long as they continue to ask.
Jared replies that he enjoys voice acting to a degree. That with the SPN anime and with Phantom Boy those projects were already done and animated in a foreign language, and then they attempt to translate what's said to English and have the actor say some version of what they were trying to say and it was a nightmare. But he'd do something like Scoobynatural any time because it was them acting together and the animation was done later to match them not him having to match what was already done so he would do it again some time. Jared, my love the part of voice acting you don't like is dubbing. x

Why c!Wilbur blowing stuff up for shits and giggles as a child makes no sense for his character (and why that would reflect a lot more badly on c!Phil anyways if that were the case):
Warning: c!Phil critical ahead, if you don't like that, skip this post
Now, to those of you that decide to read this: Strap in folks! We've got a lot of ground to cover this from and a ton of quotes ahead!
1) Wilbur’s a pacifist through and through. He always preached words over weapons, only fought when attacked first, wanted to ignore a war until it went away, considered giving up his nation many times, etc. A few examples of quotes to show this thinking:
“Basically, we have such a lower opportunity here that we probably just need to accept the conditions of surrender, just so we can save any more bloodshed, any more destruction on our land. They’ve entrapped our land, they’ve set up bombs on our land, they’ve destroyed all our homes. To stop any more bloodshed, I feel I would be a bad general if I didn’t look for conditions of surrender.” - (Wilbur’s The Revolution is Coming: 30:32, 2nd Aug)
“Tommy, we need you alive. Tommy, this isn’t worth it. Tommy, your life is worth more than the revolution.” - (Wilbur’s The Revolution is Coming: 34:57:, 2nd Aug)
“What has made you do everything you’ve done up to this point?” (Quackity)
“That’s a- That’s a big question. Um. I guess it’s just protection for my people. I mean, I- I- I just want to see them thrive, and I want to see them safe.” (Alivebur)
- (Quackity’s Killing My Enemies: 1:03:02, 12th Apr)
“Look, do you know how long and how much blood was shed to get L���Manberg to the point it was at? You know what would happen if we manage to get L’Manberg back again? More blood would be shed, and we would be the illegitimate rulers of a nation.” - (Wilbur’s video Am I the Villain?: 18:52)
“We don’t win wars with battles and with armour. We win wars with our words, Tommy. We’re starting a revolution, not a war.” - (Wilbur’s The Wall: 4:54, 29th July)
“I’m not a fighter, I’m a writer.” - (Wilbur’s The Wall: 1:48:31, 29th July)
“Fighting is not necessary right now, Tommy.” - (Wilbur’s the election results: 43:42, 22nd Sep)
“Tommy, control yourself. Tommy, control yourself, it’s not worth it. Tommy, do not take your shot! He disrespected me, yes! But we’ve talked about this, Tommy…!” - (Wilbur’s techno and wilbur make cave better: 59:36, 23rd Sep)
2) The reason his thoughts about blowing it all up in Pogtopia even hit as hard, the reason all his allies were so shocked about him going through with it IS his pacifism first mindset (which has only been put second when he’s been attacked first and put in the defensive or in the case of his speech to Quackity after the political debate he genuinely thought, by the previous failure of his philosophy and the war trauma spurred on mainly by the FCR and Eret’s betrayal, that the only way to truly win respect and make a change in the world was through fighting and killing, which he was convinced of but was ultimately always too soft to actually go through with (note how he doesn’t kill anyone in the L’manburg explosion and how in the times during Pogtopia in which he declared he wanted people dead, he got second thoughts, regrets, retracted his statement or protected people with his actions):
“If you want to really help people, you’re gonna need power, Quackity. You can make a movement, you can make a resistance, right, you can go out and you can come back, and they’ll give you a ticker tape parade. They’ll cheer for you in the streets, but you will change nothing.” - (Quackity’s Killing My Enemies: 1:05:42, 12th Apr)
“If you have a revolution, everyone will hate you, you will sacrifice everything, and you will lose everything you’ve ever had, but you’ll come back and everything will be changed.” - (Quackity’s Killing My Enemies: 1:05:59, 12th Apr)
“And power isn’t gaining from diplomacy, and bureaucracy, and giant courthouses suspended in the sky, blah blah blah. It’s gained from swords, Quackity. It’s gained from blades, it’s gained from steel, iron.” - (Quackity’s Killing My Enemies: 1:06:19, 12th Apr)
“We blow up the entire fucking place to kingdom come. I want no survivors. God help whoever’s caught in the fucking crossfire.” - (Wilbur’s video, Am I The Villain?: 17:52)
“And, I know you’re scared, Tommy, I understand you’re scared. And it’s scary, it’s scary, Tommy, but do you know what? You know what? In a time like this, when a man has nothing to lose, do you know what that means? It means we can do what we want. We have a man on our side who literally rigged our nation with TNT. We can do the same to them. We can rig this festival with TNT. We can kill them all, Tommy. ” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:15:52, 8th Oct)
“Anyone caught in the crossfire is caught in the crossfire. That’s how it goes, you know? - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:41:22, 8th Oct)
“Chat, do I wanna- Chat, do I wanna, do I wanna do it? I’m having second thoughts about the TNT. Chat, I’m having second thoughts about the TNT. Do I wanna kill these people? Seeing that they’re my friends.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 34:09, 16th Oct)
“Tommy, I’m getting second thoughts. These are my friends, I don’t- Do I- I don’t know if I wanna [inaudible].” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 36:17, 16th Oct)
“Just, if you’re gonna kill anyone else, kill me. Don’t kill anyone else here.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 1:10:53, 16th Oct)
“You sounded like you were gonna murder another person. You sounded like you were gonna go for Niki.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 1:12:34, 16th Oct)
“Oh, yes, sorry, Niki, you missed that part. I was gonna blow up Manberg, I was gonna completely destroy it in a huge fireball. Look, Niki, come to Pogtopia, you’re safer here. You’re not gonna be hurt by anyone.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 1:17:59, 16th Oct)
“No you two can escape, I’ll be the… I’ll- I’ll- I’ll be… I’ll be trapped in here…” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 27:27, 17th Oct)
“I don’t, I don’t, I don’t want to kill you two. I don’t want you two to die.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 28:53, 17th Oct)
3) He was inspired by Dream blowing up L’manburg first with Eret’s betrayal during the first revolution. He knew Dream wanted L’manburg out of the picture and had tried it before. It’s why he knew to immediately ask him for TNT, because either way, Dream would benefit from both side’s mutually assured destruction:
“Here’s the plan, right, Dream. Dream is on our side, Dream has TNT, Dream has everything, right. I say we talk to Dream, and we ask him very nicely, very kindly, ‘Dream, give us all the TNT you have’. ” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:12:22, 8th Oct)
“Remember, how he rigged L’Manberg, like ages ago, during the War? And then he detonated the TNT and destroyed the entire thing? We do that again, everyone, we blow up the entire fucking place to kingdom come.” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:12:36, 8th Oct)
“The only reason that Dream is working with us, is because of the fact that we are the enemies of his enemies! That’s it! That’s all that joins this!” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:14:35, 8th Oct)
“Dream, let me be your vassal. Dream, I understand you have a lot of TNT, a lot of the ol’ trinitrotoluene in your possession, don’t you? You do! Dream, I want to be your vassal, I want to set this up, I want to rig the city.” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:33:27, 8th Oct)
4) Wilbur hesitated a LOT with the detonation, wanted to be stopped, told people his plan in detail and was overall in a deep internal conflict about the whole thing (and didn’t blow it up once to not kill Tommy and Quackity too, this is also the moment in which his suicidal tendencies are the most clear in his lines before the 16th). Ultimately he decided to do it because he was suicidal and deeply suffering from mental health issues, believed himself to be the root of all bad in the server and by extension, L’manburg was too, and by that point his original view for L’manburg had been so twisted by Schlatt anyway that in his POV it’d only be used to hurt more people anyway:
“I- Look, rigging L’Manberg is not gonna help us get it back, I’m aware of that. But sometimes in order to feel comfortable and safe you have to be ready to give up the things that you’re worried you might lose. And in this case, I think I might lose it already.” - (Wilbur’s who are you go away: 1:17:57, 8th Oct)
“I know there’s a lot of people, Tommy! … I’m not telling you where the button is, man. … Tommy, it’s over that hill, it’s over that hill, right there!” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 28:30, 16th Oct)
“Chat, do I wanna- Chat, do I wanna, do I wanna do it? I’m having second thoughts about the TNT. Chat, I’m having second thoughts about the TNT. Do I wanna kill these people? Seeing that they’re my friends.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 34:09, 16th Oct)
“Tommy, I’m getting second thoughts. These are my friends, I don’t- Do I- I don’t know if I wanna [inaudible].” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 36:17, 16th Oct)
“But this is the opportunity- this is the opportunity. If I don’t blow it up now, when am I gonna blow it up?! When am I gonna blow it up, Tommy? But when do- when do we do-” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 36:30, 16th Oct)
“If I don’t do it now, what happens if this is the only chance I get. Everyone’s in this close situation, I can do some proper damage. Look, this isn’t a- He needs a consequence for his actions, Schlatt does, he can’t just keep being handsome and powerful and strong all the time. He needs, he needs to be put down a peg.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 37:07, 16th Oct)
“I can still call off this whole detonating at the end of the speech, dude. I can call it off.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 38:24, 16th Oct)
“Should I show you where the TNT’s laced? ‘Cause in a, in a last ditch effort, we may need to destroy it by hand, okay? So, under the chair, where Schlatt sits, there’s about twenty pieces, right? And then going under, under the main area here, following this red line, there is TNT all the way, and then it jut- and then it- … It darts up here, and over to the dance floor, but it doesn’t touch the water.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 38:29, 16th Oct)
“I have to light it, I’ve got to light it, I’ve got to light it.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 1:08:17, 16th Oct)
“Yesterday I had the perfect opportunity to blow everything up and finally end it, you know. I had the perfect opportunity to finally blow up everything and end it and just completely save everyone, right, from the tyranny of Schlatt and the tyranny of the existence of Manberg and L’Manberg, right.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 25:17, 17th Oct)
“Explain it to me! Give me a reason! Give me a reason!” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 26:50, 17th Oct)
“Who else is it gonna hurt?! It’s gonna hurt Schlatt, Manberg, and-” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 26:55, 17th Oct)
“Why did I bring- I should have just done it. I’m such a fucking showman. I should have just done it.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 27:18, 17th Oct)
“No you two can escape, I’ll be the… I’ll- I’ll- I’ll be… I’ll be trapped in here…” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 27:27, 17th Oct)
“I just- I just want to f… I just wanna end it, I wanna end it. I wanna press that button, man.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 28:08, 17th Oct)
“I don’t, I don’t, I don’t want to kill you two. I don’t want you two to die.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 28:53, 17th Oct)
“Ohh, fuck you! Fuck you, man! Why do you make it so hard?! I should have just- I’m such a fucking showman.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 29:29, 17th Oct)
“Tommy, we’ve tried my ideas. I’m willing to listen to you. I’m gonna follow you, Tommy. Whatever you think is gonna be the best way of taking down Schlatt, we’ll do it. We’ve tried my ideas.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 32:01, 17th Oct)
“My L’Manberg. My L’Manberg. As long- As long as I know the button is here… as long as I know. As long as I know the button is here. It’s just not today. I just need to know that it’s there for a fall-back. I need to know it’s there.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 33:46, 17th Oct)
“I’ve been hasty. But the fact that I know it’s there, and I can just stroke my right mouse button, that’s all I need. As long as I know it’s there.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 34:27, 17th Oct)
“You’ve convinced me, I don’t wanna go straight to Plan B, if Plan A fails.” - (Wilbur’s Speedy Stream Festival What festival: 39:02, 17th Oct)
“Look, Tommy, at the end of the day, if this doesn’t go well, I’m gonna blow the place to smithereens. The place will be gone, I’m gonna detonate it and blow it to smithereens, right, if this doesn’t go well. But it will go well…! … ‘Cause it’s literally- there’s no one on Schlatt’s side.” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 21:00, 16th Nov)
“But none of them have the same anticipatory love of what they’re doing, unlike us. Everyone on our side is fighting for something we’ve loved, and had for ages, right. That’s why we’re gonna win, and that’s why you shouldn’t be afraid. And yes, the whole place is rigged.” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 21:38, 16th Nov)
“I could, I really could, that’s the thing. That’s the bit that I like. It’s the bit that makes me smile the most is the fact that I definitely could.” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 26:28, 16th Nov)
“Chekhov’s Gun. Chekhov’s Gun. I’ll be honest with you, chat, I’ve been wondering this whole time if it still works. I’ve been thinking to myself does it still- ‘Cause I fixed it up for today.” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 1:11:36, 16th Nov)
“Phil, I’m always so close to pressing this button, Phil! I have been here, like seven or eight times I have been here… Seven or eight times” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 1:14:56, 16th Nov)
“Phil, I’ve been here here so many times.” - (Wilbur’s smithereens: 1:15:13, 16th Nov)
“I don’t even know if it works anymore, Phil. I don’t even know if the button works. I could, I could… press it, and it might-” (Wilbur’s smithereens: 1:15:29, 16th Nov)
5) The one time anything about Wilbur using TNT while young (and here the age isn't as clearly implied as in Phil's thing, this could very well be more of teen Wilbur than kid Wilbur) is mentioned in the actual text is this one maybe-canon-maybe-not-so-canon-anymore line:
“Tommy, have you heard of TNT duplication? The flying machines that dup TNT? Phil taught me about them. He taught me about them- I’m sure he wouldn’t have taught me them if he knew what I was gonna do with them. But, he did teach me about them. … They were very useful, in this.” - (Wilbur’s The Festival: 11:30, 16th Oct)
Now let’s pretend that headcanon makes any sense and that yeah, Wilbur totally just enjoyed building shit to detonate and said tendency encouraged in childhood just up and carried into adulthood and manifested as him internally going “I must blow up this thing I made because that’s what I do” and let’s pretend that he didn’t have a big ass internal conflict about it.
Ok, so Phil said that Wilbur blew stuff up when little, so he’d have connected it to the button room. Now think for a moment: How does that reflect on Phil as a parent? Let’s forget about everything else for this one moment (and believe me, I’ve got no shortage of stuff to critique c!Phil on in regards to his relation with c!Wilbur) and just focus on this one action. A man freely lets his son use TNT to blow up some random stuff presumably made out of toys. Just a little kid playing with TNT, yup, that’s his boy. And it was to such a degree that the same man just went “Oh yeah! It’s totally the blowing shit up thing!” in a fraction of a second after seeing the button… And then yeah, saw all of the hesitation, the breakdown, the struggle, the wishes to die and impaled him with a sword, but we can go deeper into those aspects in another post
Then Phil tried to make it better by saying to chat that all kids just break stuff apart, more implying that little Wilbur wasn’t actually using explosives which… makes the whole thing even dumber, ngl, because at that point c!Phil is just saying “Oh yeah, he knocked over his lego houses when he was four, so when I saw that button I immediately went ‘Oh, of course! He rigged the place! What an obvious connection!’”. You see what I’m getting at?
TLDR: It doesn’t fit with canon and even if we shove it in with its implications, then c!Phil is just an idiot, whether it be from letting his kid freely play with TNT to such a degree that he deduces where his most drastic measure resulting from trauma and breakdowns is going just by seeing the button OR whether it be from him connecting dots where there are none if he tries to save his skin as a father and just say “Oh yeah, no, who didn’t knock over stuff as a kid, what do you mean?” not realizing that… exactly… who didn’t…. so it wouldn’t connect with the button room at all

What if in nom therapy au, as a prank, Tommy took a shrinking potion (and set up the ender pearl stasis) and snuck onto Wilburs plate? Would Wilbur even notice Tommy, or just swallow him before he realized there was something wrong?
We can say Tommy made sure Wilbur was eating something soft that didnt need much chewing if we dont want to bother considering Wilbur accidentally chewing on Tommy without being gentle.
Ooooh I love this idea! Honestly, I could see both Tommy and Wilbur trying to pull this on someone when they're tiny. I'll focus on Tommy, though.
It would definitely be a bit complicated to pull something like this off. It wouldn't work at Nom Therapy, of course, since you always expect a tiny in your food. At some point when they're hanging out, however, that might work.
Of course, Tommy will probably need some outside help to really get this prank to work.
______
Surprise!
______
Tommy felt giddy as he crept through Phil's backyard. He and Tubbo had been planning this prank for weeks. Phil was in on it too, of course, since it was his house they'd be sneaking around in.
The cover story was that he was at home being force to work on an assignment he'd put off. It was believable enough... he just didn't tell Phil that he actually was postponing working on homework for this.
According to Phil's mission report- also known as a text- Wilbur had laughed at his plight, not suspicious at all. Bitch. That was just one more reason to pull this prank perfectly. That, and he still needed revenge for the sauce incident.
First, he had to get inside.
Just like they planned, Tubbo was waiting by a window near the back of Phil's house, under the guise of using the restroom. He slid it open, and Tommy climbed through as quietly as he could. Tubbo had a maniacal grin on his face that Tommy matched, barely holding back his laugh.
He could hear the muffled sounds of Wilbur and Phil chatting a few rooms away. He dug the tiny pearl stasis chamber out of his pocket and handed it to Tubbo. His friend had brought the shrinking potion- apparently Eret made really good quality ones. Tommy took the small vial, and dumped it in his mouth.
The citrus flavor was a little more bitter than the kind they had at Nom Therapy, and Tommy grimaced a little. When the pins and needles started, however, it was much less intense. Huh. Guess whoever made NT's sacrificed a little bit of the smoothness for taste.
He hadn't even shrunk all the way down yet when Tubbo crouched down and scooped him up with a gentle motion. Even when rushed, he never moved quickly enough to disorient Tommy. Tubbo always handled shrunken people so expertly; it was easy to tell how used to it he was.
Once the potion had stopped and Tommy recovered from the effects, Tubbo held out the stasis chamber. He chucked the pearl inside, and Tubbo slid into a spare room, setting it on a dresser. Then he carefully slid Tommy into his pocket and walked back to the kitchen.
Tommy couldn't see where everyone was, so he had to use his other senses to guess. He could hear Wilbur a little clearer than Phil, who's voice was drowned out a little by the sounds in the kitchen. He assumed Phil was making dinner now. He mourned the loss of a chance to eat Phil's cooking, but he'd eaten before he came. Ah least he hadn't missed out on a Niki meal.
It felt like Tubbo was climbing up to sit, so he'd probably taken a seat at the bar. Wilbur's voice had gotten a lot louder; he was likely on the seat next to Tubbo.
Tommy played with the remote in his pocket while he waited. The stasis chamber he'd bought didn't have the automatic timer like the ones at Nom Therapy. A feature that fancy was a little out of his price range. It could still be activated by remote, or even just manually. It was probably better this way anyways, now Tommy could stay in Wilbur's stomach as long as he wanted.
This plan had been made very carefully. It wasn't like he could sneak around Wilbur's house while he was tic tac sized, so Tubbo was a necessary part in his plan. And Tubbo and Wilbur didn't hang out by themselves very often, so Phil got roped into the prank as well.
That turned out to be a good thing; with Phil's help, they could plan what food Tommy would actually be sneaking into. There was a reason noms were usually done in controlled environments. There was always the chance that since Wilbur might not notice him in the bite of food, he would just crunch down on the food... and Tommy.
Of course, Tommy would respawn, but that wasn't a fun process. An accident like that would probably traumatize both of them for a while.
But Tommy had been eaten by Wilbur dozens of times. It was a strange knowledge, but he knew how the man ate. He knew exactly the food that was unlikely to get him chomped. Wilbur had a strange habit of barely chewing spaghetti. Very often, he would simply slurp the noodles down whole. Tommy, who was often on those noodles or wrapped up in them, teased him about it. It was one of the few dishes where Wilbur didn't nibble on him for a while before swallowing. It was the perfect meal to hide in.
He wondered what was taking so long. It was hard to follow a conversation from inside a pocket, and he was getting bored. There wasn't much to do besides play with the remote. He'd started tossing it up, catching it with one hand.
Suddenly, his world shifted as Tubbo stood up. He fell against the lip of the pocket, fumbling the remote. It slipped out of his hands, and fell what seemed like hundreds of feet down to the floor.
Well fuck. Tommy sat back, embarrassed. Tubbo kept walking, so he probably hadn't noticed the remote. That meant he'd have to wait for one of his friends to manually activate the stasis chamber. He just knew he was going to be teased relentlessly for this.
He hadn't really been paying attention to what was going on; he'd heard something about Tubbo helping with the plates maybe? So it came as a surprise when Tubbo's hand suddenly came in the pocket. His fingers wrapped around Tommy, gently plucking him out.
He was deposited on the edge of a plate that was piled high with steaming spaghetti. He grinned at his friend before wiggling into the mass of noodles. He felt slight movement as his plate was carried over to Wilbur.
Now came the fun part. His goal was to go unnoticed as long as possible, preferably until he was actually in Wilbur's mouth.
It was hard to move around with the spaghetti curled all around him, but he managed to keep ducking back into cover whenever Wilbur scooped up a bite. During one twirl of his fork, Tommy took the opportunity. He grabbed onto the noodles, getting a couple more wrapped around him. He was on the bottom of the fork, so Wilbur didn't see him as he was raised to his friend's mouth.
Wilbur's mouth closed around him, and he pulled the noodles off the fork, Tommy with them. Like he expected, Wilbur didn't even chew, simply slurping the noodles down in one go.
Wilbur made a choked sound as he swallowed, and Tommy burst into laughter as he slipped into Wilbur's stomach. Their prank had gone perfectly, and he could hear Wilbur's confusion from outside.
_____
Wilbur liked spaghetti. Wilbur also liked surprises.
He wasn't expecting a surprise to be in his spaghetti. Of course, surprises were never expected but they were usually in the realm of possibility.
As Wilbur swallowed another bite of Phil's spaghetti, he felt something warm and squirming go down his throat. He nearly choked on the bite, shocked at the unexpected tiny. He managed to get the bite down, and he saw Tubbo and Phil looking at him with barely concealed amusement.
"I think I just swallowed someone," he said bemused.
Tubbo burst into laughter. He just stared at the teen for a moment, before he heard a faint laughter from his stomach. A very familiar laugh.
"Tommy?" He asked incredulously. This time even Phil laughed.
"You were all in on this?" He accused. Then his attention turned to the teen that was settling comfortably in his stomach.
"Aren't you supposed to be studying?"
"Get pranked bitch!" Tommy shouted, Wilbur listening carefully to hear the muffled sound. "This is payback for that time with the sauce!"
Wilbur heaved an exasperated sigh. He a glare to Tubbo and Phil who were still giggling.
"Your face was so fucking funny!" Tubbo laughed.
"Wilbur! Ask if he got a picture!" Tommy yelled.
Wilbur repeated the question with a roll of his eyes. Tubbo grinned wickedly and held up his phone.
"Better, I got a video."
They continued to tease him through the rest of dinner. Tommy was a little quieter than normal, but Wilbur assumed it was because it would be hard to hear him with multiple people talking.
Once things calmed down, Tommy spoke up. He sounded a little nervous, and Wilbur frowned in concern.
"Um, hey big man. I uh... sort of dropped the remote for the stasis chamber before you ate me."
"You dropped the remote?" Wilbur repeated, worry in his voice. "Wh- do- do you need me to get you out?"
"Nonono!" Tommy protested. "I'm fine right now. I just... need one of you to get me out eventually."
Wilbur realized his friend was more embarrassed than anything. He laughed, poking gently at his stomach. He felt Tommy give a small kick back.
"Aww, and what if I want to keep you here for a while Tommy?" He teased. "It sounds to me like you're stuck with me for a while."
"Willll," his trapped friend whined. Wilbur imagined his face was bright red by now. He continued teasing Tommy, making sure the teen never sounded like he actually didn't want to be there anymore. Tommy remained comfortably nestled against his stomach, and Wilbur could hear the humor in his voice. A while later, once the teasing had died down, Tommy spoke up again, voice almost too quiet to hear.
"Hey, Wil, you won't actually make me stay here the whole time, right?" He sounded just a little vulnerable, and Wilbur put a hand on the outside of his stomach. He gently rubbed and felt the miniscule weight of Tommy leaning into the contact.
"Of course not, Toms," he reassured his friend. "If you really want to be let out, I'll let you out. Promise."
He couldn't hear a response from Tommy, but the small weight in his stomach curled even further into him. Wilbur smiled.
It was supposed to be a prank, but he'd enjoyed his surprise.

Since finishing PSH’s filmography, I’ve been diving into his stage work a bit more — reading the plays he was in or directed, checking out reviews, searching desperately for bootlegs, learning everything I can about them. It’s brought up a mix of feelings.
It adds so much depth to his work. The characters, the projects he selects — many are so clearly identifiable PSH roles yet often unlike anything he did on screen. Reading Konstantin in The Seagull, for example, you’re like, okay yes I absolute get it, this is exactly the character I’d expect him to play. Not in a predictable way, but in the fact that many of these characters are complicated, deeply flawed, uncomfortably relatable. From what you’ve seen on screen, you can almost imagine the way he tantrums as Konstantin or gets drunk and belligerent as Jamie Tyrone. His voice is so clear in my mind, reading these lines.
Theater is such a living, breathing medium and that’s why Phil loved it so much. A fresh opportunity every show, an unreplicable experience with a new audience, an unpredictable energy. That’s the beautiful thing about it. That’s also what makes it hard, now. Not only the lack of accessible recordings or information about those performances — I won’t digress here about that subject, but I could — but the knowledge that seeing a video wouldn’t capture it anyway. Don’t get me wrong, hearing him in Death of a Salesman is a godsend, is something to treasure, but I know I’m not experiencing the show.
The fact that that opportunity is gone forever — when it sinks in like that, it’s like a second death, another wave of grief to endure. The films are meant to be preserved, meant to be a moment in time that lasts forever. His performances are dynamic, and we certainly don’t have enough, but as a medium films are solid, steady, static, something to hold onto. The theater is so alive that his loss is especially aching and poignant. It’s not just missing seeing him in new movies — it’s missing seeing him, knowing that he’s bringing a character to life every night, raw, breathing, breaking down, masterful. The stage is so much closer than the screen, you’re breathing the same air. And realizing again that you can’t, over and over, in different ways, is so crushing. This is just the latest.
What he was going to do next, films, plays, whether he was going to continue acting, directing... he should be here making those choices. I miss him

MCC Teams?
Alright mr. Scott Smajor i’ve got some MCC teams and i’ve never done this before and i think these teams could actually happen so we’ll see. I put effort into this and I think I actually did a fairly good job getting all of the teams in that 8k to 9k average.
Red Rabbits: Dream, Antfrost, Gumi, Puffy (avg. 8,852)- I’ve always wanted to see Dream and Ant on the same team cuz I think they could do well together. Gumi and Puffy have done lots of streams with Ant and I think this team would have fun vibes.
Orange Ocelots: Sapnap, George, Ponk, Awesamdude (avg. 8,718) - hunters + ponk would be really fun. 
Yellow Yaks: TapL, Smallishbeans, IntheLittleWood, GeminiTay (avg. 8,469) - for some reason i feel like this team would get along really well. i’ve seen some pretty out there teams so i feel like this isn’t so out there. i’ve seen harvey appear in joel’s videos and martyn has teamed with harvey in mcc pride. i just think everyone on this team could get along very well. 
Lime Llamas: Quig, Rendog, FalseSymmetry, fWhip/DocM77 (avg. 8,092 with Doc or avg. 8,756 with fWhip) - i feel this team could get along very well. I’m pretty curious how well this team would actually do. On the other hand, I would love to see Doc in MCC with Ren cuz they spent all of hermitcraft 8 together. I don’t think it’s a top five team, but I think it would be pretty fun to watch. 
Green Geckos: Petezahhutt, LDShadowLady, DanTDM, CaptainSparklez (avg. 9,047) - c’mon it’s the OGs how could you not put this team together it’s amazing. also they have the highest average in the event so like the captain could win. 
Cyan Coyotes - fruitberries, Grian, Pearl, Scar/Mumbo (avg. 8,361) - I’ve been wanting Scar and Mumbo in MCC for a long time and I think this could be the opportunity. I also love the Grian and Pearl dynamic. And fruit is a Grian stan. 
Aqua Axolotls: Ranboo, Wilbur, Seapeekay, Solidarity (avg. 8,690) - I really want a Wilbur and Callum team i just think it would be fun. Also Jimmy and Ranboo would be fun add-ons to the team and I kinda miss Wilbur/Ranboo teams. 
Blue Bats: HBomb, Philza, 5up, Jack Manifold (avg. 8,640) - I also think this is sort of a pretty out there team. I know HBomb and Jack have interacted on the Dream SMP, so i think they could be a fun duo. I also want to see HBomb with Phil or any A-tier (besides Scott cuz thats OP). To make things balanced, 5up was a pretty good balancer and I think this team is really balanced and everyone would have to carry their weight. 
Purple Pandas: Punz, Niki, Purpled/hannahxxrose/BoomerNA/Wallibear (avg. 6,950) - so this team’s average sucks but that’s because tiredtwt would be new to the event. I think they would be great additions with Punz being the team leader. 
Pink Parrots: Smajor, Shubble, Tommy, Tubbo (avg. 8,940) - Can i just dream? Two iconic duos with each other? Sounds amazing and fun and i would just embrace the chaos. it’s been too long since a tommy/tubbo team too. 
Overall, Pink, Aqua, and Green are the most OP teams. I just think that the people on these teams don’t generally have OP teams. If I had to guess, I think Aqua would get first, though I might be stretching.

“I hate you Kim Namjoon! Get out!”
Namjoon looks at you with an amused smile as he drops his bags at the door of your bedroom. You’re sitting in your bed, your comforter fully around you, even on top of your head, as you loudly blow your nose, some show blaring on the television. Even though he feels bad about passing on his cold to you, he can’t help but find your red nose and whining adorable. The past few months since Namjoon returned from tour had been few of the best you’d had in Korea. Although you both still had remarkably busy schedules, you had found a routine of spending time together at least once a week, usually ending your Saturdays together to spend as much of the Sunday together as possible. It didn’t matter how you spent your time, whether it was spent going out on dates or sitting silently reading or cuddling, all that mattered was that you were together.
“Aw baby, I’m sorry!” He sat on the edge of the bed, wrapping his arms around your burittoed body. He kissed all over your face obnoxiously, much to your chagrin as you groaned and tried to get him off you, worried to get your snot on him. “Okay. Tell you what. I’ll cancel going to my parents and stay here to take care of you!” He punctuated that with another kiss on your lips. Hey, he’d already suffered through this cold, might as well take advantage of being able to be near you now.
“No! Shut up! You’re not cancelling.” Since things were slower at work, the company had decided to give Namjoon and the boys the week off. He had spent the first day with you, going to the most recent Ji Hye Yeom exhibit yesterday, and was going to go visit his family for the next four days. When Namjoon told you he was planning to spend the majority of his vacation with his parents, he was bracing himself for a negative reaction, a learned response from his previous relationship. His ex would always hate that he would visit his family for extended periods when he got time off and wouldn’t prioritize his relationship with her. He was surprised and relieved to hear you not only excited that he was visiting family but encouraging him to spend more time, upping his initial ask of two days to four. He liked that you always encouraged him to call his mom when he was on tour, as did his mom, so much so that she had started to say ‘my beautiful daughter’ whenever she referred to you in front of him.
Namjoon stood up as he watched you rant about the importance of visiting family, one arm out from your duvet heaven as you waved it about to emphasize your points. He almost giggled at how endearing you looked sniffling through your tirade, hair a mess and voice a little hoarse. Taking off his jeans to get comfortable, he chuckled at your wide eyes and dramatic gasp.
“No! We’re not having sex right now you maniac!” You whine as you lie down with the covers over your head. Namjoon gets into bed, pulling the comforter from over you to sneak inside, his arms snaking around your grumbling form to pull him to his chest. Although you complained, you snuggled into him, feeling the safe comfort that only Namjoon provided you.
“I just wanna nap with you before I leave.” He kissed the top of your head as he tangled your legs with his. You poked your head up from where it was hiding in his chest to look up at his smiling face as he cupped your cheek to place a chaste kiss on your lips. Caressing the skin once he leans away, he looks at you adoringly.  “Sorry for getting you sick, baby.”
———————————-
“Your boyfriend is a tyrant. Please never get sick again.” Yoongi took off his beanie and mask and shook his head to fluff his hair as you went through your phone to finish placing the order for takeout. After talking to Namjoon about how you had spent all of yesterday recovering, and even facetiming to ensure him that you were fit enough to be working again, he still didn’t believe you, forcing the only member of his band that was in Seoul during his vacation to make sure you were truly alright. You would be annoyed if your heart didn’t skip a beat at his overt concern. You were glad to spend time with Yoongi - he was pretty similar to you and you both had been slacking on hanging out lately. A few months ago you had decided to host a whiskey exchange where you would share bottles of your favourite liquor together, only for it to fall apart after two hangouts due to your busy schedules and Yoongi’s new relationship. It was nice to be in his company again, his mellow energy a great contrast to your usually loud friends.
“What did he say?” You question, laughing. Yoongi had called Namjoon many funny nicknames before but hearing him call him a tyrant made you laugh, picturing your boyfriend getting stern and demanding someone pay you a visit.
“You wanna see?” Yoongi chuckled as he pulled his phone out, navigating to the group chat and handing it to you. You couldn’t help but smile as you read Namjoon pleading to the group to check in on you, asking if anyone was around. Yoongi said he was around but refused only to relent once the other boys pressured him and Namjoon pulled in a favour Yoongi owed him from 2015.
“Ooof. Honestly, it’s not that bad. Good to know Jungkook would literally kill for me though, and that you hate to hang out with me.” You threw an ice cube at him from where you were putting them in your glasses.
“He wouldn’t. He’s just a suck up.” He dodged your attack, sticking his tongue out in triumph. “And you know I had to make Namjoon suffer a bit.”
Rolling your eyes at him as he smirked, you watched him pull out his bottle from his backpack. Your Craigellachie 16 no match for his Glenfiddich 30, you chastised him for buying such an expensive bottle for just the exchange. However, you were not going to say no to a glass of that and the two of you sat in a comfortable silence as you enjoyed your drinks. You were the first to break the silence.
“How’s your bae?”
“Oh haven’t you heard? Bae is no more! Broke my heart and left me to suffer.” Yoongi scowled as he dramatically grabbed his chest, before downing his drink. If you didn’t know any better you would’ve thought he was joking but his usual deadpan was missing.
“Shit… I’m sorry Yoongs.” You looked at him softly, making him scoff.
“It’s fine. Going to get a sick album out of this.” Yoongi waved you off, as he reached in his backpack again to bring out three bottles of soju. “Let’s get drunk!”
“That’s… one way of looking at things. You want to talk about it?” You knew he didn’t want to talk about it, it was probably still fresh and you didn’t want to impose but you wanted to give him the opportunity to share if he wanted to.
“Nah it’s fine. It was the usual anyways. ‘You’re always busy.’ ‘Why won’t you share your feelings with me?’ ‘Do you love me more or your career?’ I say good riddance.” He scoffed once again as he poured himself some more whiskey, sipping it blissfully.
“Well good to know you’re not hiding your pain.” You narrowed your eyes at him, but decided to get drunk with him anyways, taking up his offer to refill your glass. You had an extremely light day at work tomorrow with it being Friday and all, plus you knew that once Yoongi got drunk he would tell you how he was feeling. He was a very talkative drunk.
“Oh you know it. I’m nothing if not in touch with my feelings!”
Soon you and Yoongi were wasted, sitting on opposite ends of your couch as the television played the ‘important videos’ playlist on Youtube, laughing maniacally at each random short video that popped up. The food you had ordered was sitting on the coffee table, half eaten and getting cold. Having not heard Yoongi’s giggle in a while you looked away from the screen to see him staring into space, a slight frown on his lips.
“Dude. You good?” You poked him with your foot to break him out of his thoughts.
“Yeah. Sorry just realized I’m single again. Fuck.” He looked at you with wide eyes, as if he had just had an epiphany. You frowned at him, sad that he was feeling this way. In the past six months, you had come to learn that although Yoongi often talked about how much he loved being alone, in reality he put a lot of pressure on himself to find someone to be with.
“You know you’re worth more than a relationship, right?” You placed your hand on his, smiling reassuringly.
“Don’t go all Dr. Phil on me. I’m not that sad. It was like two months but it felt nice to call someone mine, you know?” He rolled his eyes at your concern, but held your hand tighter as he finished his sentence, averting his gaze with a melancholic look. He looked at you again sighing. “How did you get over your last breakup?”
“Um… not healthily. I almost sold my company.”
And so for the next hour, you told Yoongi of how messed up your previous relationship had made you. You don’t think you had talked about it in depth about your breakup with Beomseok for years now, but somehow drunk off extremely expensive whiskey and extremely cheap soju it felt natural to share the details about your most toxic relationship with Yoongi. Beomseok and you met when you were initially still in Canada, visiting Seoul in hopes of expanding. You were busy and he tried to help you as you adjusted to a new country, but as your relationship grew so did his tendency to ensure you relied on him. As hard as it was to admit to Yoongi, Beomseok had made you dependent on him, so much so that when he left you after two years of you accommodating him, you broke down. You started having terrible anxiety, using alcohol and cigarettes to take the edge off. Panic attacks became the norm so much so that you had contemplated leaving your position. You couldn’t see your friends, worked from home, and just buried yourself away. It took half a year of self destructive behaviour and for you to wake up in a bed with someone you didn’t remember to knock some sense into you and get yourself into therapy. Yoongi then talked about his own relationship issues, the two of you bonding over your struggles with mental health and shitty coping mechanisms. It was weird to think that Yoongi hadn’t been one of your close friends before this night.
It was around two in the morning by the time Yoongi left and you felt the emotions of the night catch up to you. You hadn’t thought about Beomseok in years, and thinking about him made you feel extremely sad for past you. You didn’t deserve how he treated you and you wished you could go back in time and shake some sense into yourself, and save the heartbreak. Lying in bed, drunk and emotional, you mourned for your old self and her faith in the world. However, looking at your phone you saw the photo of you and Namjoon - him standing behind you with his arm on your shoulder as he pretends to take a bite off your cheek as you grimace - and you were reminded that you were in a much better place now with a much better man. To say you looked forward to Namjoon returning tomorrow would be an understatement.
———————————-
Namjoon: I’m back!!! Namjoon: I miss you!!! Namjoon: Come over!!! Namjoon: I’m cooking for you!!! Y/N: Um… should I call poison control now or later? Namjoon: I’m back after almost a week and this is the welcome I get? Y/N: Babeeeee you know I love you! Namjoon: Prove it. Eat the pasta I’m making Y/N: Did anyone at least help you cook it? Namjoon: IT’S GOING TO BE GOOD. COME OVER. Y/N: Ok ok. No need to yell… Namjoon: Good. See you in an hour? Namjoon: I’m at the dorms btw Y/N: See you soon jooooooonie Y/N: I miss you too btw Namjoon: I love you too btw
You punched the code to the dorm and were greeted by a very excited Moni as you entered. The white dog jumping up at your legs, his tail wagging wildly behind him. You bent down in the entryway to give him a few scratches behind his ears, cooing and calling him a good boy.
“All this love for Moni, what about Joonie? I’m a good boy too!” You heard Namjoon shout out as you made your way through the large living room towards the kitchen, Moni playfully following.
“Aww is my good boy jealous?” You set your eyes on your boyfriend huddled over a cutting board, concentrating hard on cutting what seemed to be garlic, his jaw set. Namjoon was dressed in a blue overalls under which he wore a black sweater, the hood atop his head, the hair of which was now back to his natural dark brown, his nose scrunched as he attempted to keep his glasses from slipping. You don’t know if it was not seeing him for a while or the fact that he looked so cuddly, but you felt butterflies, your stomach somersaulting. You hadn’t felt them since the beginning of your relationship, and you were a bit unnerved that he still had that effect on you six months later.
“Holy shit. You look like a hot minion!” You almost yelled as you walked towards him, startling him enough to look at you with wide eyes under his black rimmed glasses and yelp.
“Don’t scare me like that! I almost cut my hand off!” He tried to glare at you but was soon smiling widely as you ducked under his arm to stand directly in front of him between the counter, putting your arms around his neck as you pulled him into a kiss. It felt amazing to have his plush lips against yours again, his familiar scent enveloping your senses till it felt like you were drunk off of him.
“I missed you,” you whispered against his lips. Your hands found your elbows as you pulled him in closer and deepened the kiss, making him moan, his tongue massaging yours as his hands went to your hips, pulling you to him. Before you could lose all your senses you felt a sharp poke on your lower back, and you reluctantly pulled away to look behind you.
“Joonie! You’re still holding the knife!” You said in alarm as his eyes widened again and he dropped it on the counter immediately before looking at you sheepishly and apologizing. “Control yourself. I don’t want to spend the night in the hospital!”
“Then stop distracting me! Go sit there and watch me make you the best pasta of your life.” He smirked and his eyes followed as you moved around the island to sit at the stool, bending down to pet Moni as he settled at your feet. Namjoon knew he was a terrible cook, but he had spent the time at home perfecting this recipe, subjecting his mom to the first few horrible tries, till he figured it out. It was a simple five ingredient dish but it was the first he’d learn and he’d be lying if he said he didn’t want to impress you. You always cooked for him, from experimental recipes you had found online to traditional Korean food that was second best only to his mom’s, and though he was always happy to do the dishes, he wanted your reunion to be special. He cooked almost quietly, blushing slightly at your words and looks of encouragement, plating it like restaurants would before placing it on the dining table and sitting next to you with a bottle of wine, anticipating your reaction.
“What the fuck? You can cook!” you exclaim as you dig in for another bite. Namjoon lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding as he grinned at his success, finally digging into his meal. “I love the garlic. But damn, is this your way of telling me you don’t wanna kiss tonight?”
“Baby, I find even your gross morning breath irresistible, a little garlic’s not gonna stop me.” he laughed and you scowled at him, nudging him with your shoulder, as he leaned over to peck your lips. You weren’t trying to placate Namjoon, this pasta was absolutely delicious, the right amount of seasoning and everything. It warmed your heart that despite his firestarter tendencies he went through the effort to make you a home cooked meal.
As you ate, you talked about your days apart. You recovered from your cold within a day and had been back at work, and even though he scolded you for going back too fast Namjoon loved the way your eyes lit up when you talked about how you had managed to renew a contract with a client today, switching the period from their usual 1 year to 5 years. You had been working on this for a whole month, taking it upon yourself to attend meetings with not only the directors of this company but even the interns. He squealed with you at your success, high-fiving you and finding your excitement extremely adorable. You also talked about how after two bottles of soju Yoongi had finally admitted you were now his closest female friend and he agreed that you both should now tease him about it relentlessly.
Namjoon told you about how excited everyone was to have him home for that extended period of time, and how healing it was to be around them after the cacophony of tour. Apparently his sister had recently started learning how to make loom bracelets and he showed off the purple one on his wrist, telling you about how he had a matching one for you in his bag. Namjoon looked refreshed and you were glad you convinced him to spend the extra time home. He had also managed to bring back another bonsai tree to add to his collection, taking the time to explain how in a few years he could potentially tap the mini maple for some syrup. The image of your clumsy boyfriend trying to tap a tiny tree made you laugh. As the conversation continued and you both finished your food, you saw his mood dip a little. You silently lean forward cupping his face, as he nuzzles into your touch.
“My beautiful, hardworking boy. What’s wrong?” You coo with a soft smile on your face as your thumbs stroked his cheekbones and he pouts exaggeratedly before his hands go around your waist pulling you into his lap.
“I missed you.” He whispers as he nuzzles his face in your chest, his arms tightening around you. Namjoon felt cocooned in your sweet floral vanilla scent, and even though he’d been home just this morning, this felt like home too - just being in your embrace. He felt his heart swell with adoration as you stroked his hair slowly, whispering affirmations into his ear, slowly forgetting his worries about not spending enough time with you.
Usually when you both met after being apart, it was all desperation to get naked, but for the first time this felt much more intimate. He could hear your heartbeat and it soothed him. He suddenly envisioned both of you old and weathered in each other’s arms and he couldn’t fight the grin that made it on his face. He showered you in kisses, moving from your chest to your neck to your jaw and finally to your lips, where he stayed, kissing you firmly as his arms wind tighter around your waist. You lost yourself in his touch, wanting nothing more to be consumed by him as you tugged lightly at his hair, swallowing his moans. Before things could escalate you get startled by a loud thud.
“Wow! Right where we eat!” Jimin clicked his tongue in disapproval, as you both sheepishly stared at him.
“Noona!” Jungkook exclaimed as he came over to Namjoon and you, dragging you into a hug as he kissed the top of both of your heads. The two men seemed overly excited, and as Namjoon explained to you how he thought he was alone in the dorms tonight since no one has been around in weeks, the two interrupted to say that they had come to start a movie marathon, hoping to stay up all night since they had the day off tomorrow to marathon the Batman franchise as they had a bet going on as which one was the best.
“Do you guys want to join us?” Jimin asked politely as he munched on leftover pasta on the table. You excitedly opened your mouth to speak but before you could get a word out, Namjoon looked at you sternly.
“Nope.” He refused the boys as he looked at you, leaning in close to whisper in your ear before he nipped at it. “Baby, ignore your obsession with Batman. I want my dessert.” His voice was a few octaves lower than usual and his words made you shiver, a blush creeping up your face as a nervous giggle escaped your lips. Maybe you could skip rewatching these old movies, just once.
Bidding a quick goodbye to the boys and ignoring their smirks, you both made your way to Namjoon’s room. As soon as you were out of sight, Namjoon pulled you into another kiss, slotting your lower lip between his, making your heart race as he walked you down the hallway towards his room. You almost tripped over his bags haphazardly strewn in front of his door.
“Sorry, didn’t have time to go to my room yet.” He chuckled against your lips as his grip on your hips stabilized you. You giggled as you turned around to open his door, his lips on your neck instantaneously as he rubbed his growing bulge against your butt. His touch had you breathless as you moved in his room, Moni following closely behind you. Removing himself from you he picked up his dog and moved him outside murmuring an apology to the whining canine as he shut the door.
Without wasting any time, he pinned you against the door, your makeout session getting heavy. Your eyes were screwed shut as you mewled, his lips along your neck igniting a fire in you. Your hands moved from his hair to the buckles of his overalls, snapping them off as they fell to the ground unceremoniously. “Oh look! Easy access!” you exclaimed as he smiled against your skin.
His lips met yours again, his hands kneading the flesh of your sides under your shirt. You could kiss him like this forever, the way his tongue explores your mouth as if he doesn’t already know every crevice of your body, as if he’s worshipping you. His kiss slows down, turning from a sloppy fiery heat to intentional moves made to make you moan as he moves you towards the bed, dropping you to the middle as soon as your knees hit the back of the bed. He stands above you removing his shirt with one hand as you move backwards and soon he’s slotting himself between you.
“Fuck I love you.” He whispers as he kisses your cheek, moving towards your ear. You moan loudly as he grinds against you. Your hands run over his back, feeling the muscles as he continues to kiss your neck, biting it before soothing it with wide licks of his tongue. You used to be embarrassed by the marks he left behind but somehow as time passed you craved them. Jiyoung had even nicknamed him your vampire, and you’d be lying if that didn’t make you giddy.
Realizing you were still fully dressed you pushed at his chest, making him lie next to you as you straddled him, one of your knees almost slipping off the edge of the bed. You giggle at your clumsiness as he holds your hips to steady you and you slowly unbutton your shirt. As your skin becomes visible he runs his hands up your stomach to your chest, squeezing each breast as he reaches your neck before pulling your face to his.
“Mhmm… my pretty girl.” He almost growls as he pulls you into another heated kiss, his hands cupping your face as you grind on him. Suddenly you feel a tug at your hair, making you moan into his mouth, breaking the kiss. Before you know it you are on the floor, laughing at your clumsiness as you see his confused face, eyes still closed, lips puckered.
However, your laughter dies as you hear a loud screech. That’s when you feel that your hair was still being tugged as you looked up to see a tall, bulky woman, probably in her late thirties calling you a slut. Before you can even register what is happening you feel a sharp pain across your face as you realize you’ve just been punched. You taste the iron before you notice drops of bright red on your chest.
You cup your nose with one hand as you hear chaos ensue. Namjoon yelling your name as Moni barks loudly outside the room. You are aware that you are still lying on the floor but your eyes refuse to open as you hear scuffling before the door being slammed and Jungkook’s voice.
Everything’s a blur and you hear a loud blood curdling scream. Before you can register that that noise came from your mouth you hear your arm snap just as the most pain you have ever felt in your life turns your arm numb. You don’t remember much after, only grunts and shouts of your name. The last thing you hear is Namjoon’s voice calling your name repeatedly as he holds your head.
