Hey, wanna see if I can make some tears happen?
Because here’s some depressing angst from a much later chapter of the fic.
FYI, it’s 1st pov Mr. Puzzles, with some Smg4, 3 and Mario cameos. No context but for the fact that Mr. Puzzles screwed up badly by making some poor decisions. Also, typed this up on the phone, but since it was flowing really well kept going; so possible typos.
-
There was something of a numbness that had fallen over me the moment my neck suddenly, and quite miraculously, no longer ached terribly as it had before. 
The enormity of what had just happened…
What had just been done, and just where it was I was now…
I could not make sense of it, even if I knew all of the pieces that had led up to this point, and it was only my fault that it had happened due to foolishly believing I could het away with one more passenger to my mind, without malicious intent for once. 
I understood why I was here, even if it hurt me more than I thought possible to know that it was because of a misunderstanding I doubted I would ever have a change to explain, or make up for. 
I’d been at rest, so I’d been within my mind when I had been forcibly (painfully) dragged back to my home world. 
As much as I didn’t want things to end between us like this, there didn’t appear to be much hope that I could get back to your world without assistance, when I still wasn’t at my best.
There were a number of things that could have been done in that moment. 
I could have done a dramatic emergence from my metal head, all dramatic flair with a showman’s smile to hide all the pain and regret and grief that had not yet had time to settle in.
I could have just come out and faced whatever consequences for my actions in my world and your adjacent one, as I figured you’d been the one to ask Smg4 to bring me back home.
A home where I would only ever be alone due to my actions that had sent me careening through the air into your world. 
I could have run; been a coward and faced nothing but loneliness and a loss to do much more than just exist, now that I wouldn’t be actively dying in another world because a man with a tv for a head shouldn’t have been able to survive there.
I chose…to do nothing. 
Attempting to do anything, whether for good or my own purpose, led me to here, so I just wouldn’t come out from my mind. If I didn’t do anything, then I wouldn’t hurt anyone, and I could be left to my misery if what could have been if I had just stopped and thought about anyone apart from myself. 
There wasn’t even a plan to have my screen turn on to face anyone who’d be there upon my rather dizzying return to this world. 
Not even that plumber’s grating voice, which normally would have had me on the defensive, did anything to draw me out of hiding.
Nothing, until there was an incessant tapping on my metal head, and with memory of the last time (dratted trash compactor and its nightmares) I reluctantly, and wearily, turned on my screen. 
Smg4 was there, standing a healthy distance away from me, while wearing a nervous expression as if expecting me to do something. 
“Ugh, great, you just had to try and talk to the tv freak.” Smg3 was a little closer, glaring at me and were it possible, bristling as if he were holding back a tirade of words and possible desire to get into a fisticuffs situation. “I could have already gone back to my cafe but no, you had to bring him back right now. My poor little Eggdog is all alone at the cafe!”
“Don’t you have any customers?” Smg4 appeared grateful for a distraction.
“Yes.” Smg3 turned his ire on the other man. “My cafe had lots of people when I had to leave there, and come here, with you.”
“Mario doesn’t think he saw anyone.” 
Ordinarily, I would have grimaced, but upon seeing that my screen was on, Mario, who, up until said screen turned on, brightened upon. “TV man! Hello! Play Mario some telletubies!”
I don’t say anything to that.
I say nothing at all.
I merely waited for one of them that wasn’t Mario to address me, already resigned, if pained, over the idea that he was likely never going to see you again. And then, Smg4 unwittingly drove that point home with a remarkably reasonable question. 
“Why did you do that?” 
I shut my screen off before any of them could see the broken expression that was about to take the place of the more weary one. When I spoke, it was soft, nearly inaudible, all bravado and spark gone. “None of you would believe me, so I won’t waste your time.”
Smg4 was quiet.
“Are you kinnfing me?” Smg3 scoffed. “Oh that’s rich. You love to hear the sound of your own voice, so why not boast about all the lousy tricks you used on someone that trusted you there.”
I…said nothing, nor did I do anything.
For all intents and purposes, I likely resembled a simple old television that was turned off.
There was some murmuring, but that wasn’t enough for me to bother to turn my screen or to even listen in as I allowed myself to drift within my mind. 
It was a cold comfort. 
Artificial.
There was no one here but myself, and the countless tvs that surrounded me, floating and doing nothing. 
Much like I, myself, was no longer doing anything. 
I didn’t even look or question way that someone had picked up my metal head and carried me along for quite some time. 
It was relaxing, in a way. 
I didn’t have to do anything, because if I did, I would only make things worse.
Everything was already such a mess.
Were I to attempt to explain myself, after what I put Smg4 and his friends through, the explanation would only be hollow words to those them; they didn’t have the whole picture, so how could they judge me without that?
…but they could.
Smg4 and the otheres already had enough to judge me for, no matter the progress I’d made in the world adjacent to this one. 
It didn’t matter that this was all a horrible cluster of connected misunderstandings, but I wasn’t a fool. 
I knew that trying to talk about what really happened in the other world with you at present wouldn’t go over well. With what I was perceived to have done, and how quickly Smg4 and 3 had been to devise a plan to wrench me from your world back to my own…it was too soon to try and mend what had clearly been broken by my own arrogance by believing that things would be just fine, and that there’d be no consequences other than a light scolding.
Perhaps I was a fool after all, to believe that I could experience one of those happy ever after endings I’d watched of so many shows. 
The long walk ended when I felt my metal head being placed in some quiet place.
As before, I didn’t bother to turn on my screen. 
I didn’t want to see where I was.
It was cold.
I could sense it distantly.
There were footsteps that receded from me, as Smg4 could be heard calling out to someone else farther away. 
He’d said nothing to be.
I thought I may have heard the sound of a door close.
That was it, then?
Nothing else was said or done to me, apart from placing me somewhere like an unwanted piece of hardware?
I wasn’t sure whether to feel relief or disappointment, but if even Smg4 had no need for any further conversation with me, then I would remain exactly where I was. 
Within my mind, I curled my body up as tightly as I could. My wrapped wrapper firmly around my legs as I tucked my long limbs up to my chest. I pressed them to my chest snugly.
A static, glitching noise slid out of me.
With a fumbling hand, I forcefully muted myself  before burying my screen into my knees. With the extra silence I tormented myself with the fact that even my mind couldn’t block out the pathetic tears I could no longer even shed.
I would stay here, in my mind, where I couldn’t bother anyone trapped in any of the channels either. 
It had been made abundantly clear, over and over, throughout everything from first finding Smg4 to being punted into your world, and all the way to now, being back here that…that…
Curling my frame up into as small as a ball as best I could with my lanky limbed body, I kept kept my face pressed to my knees despite my whole body being wracked with tremors from unalloyed the emotions battering into me at once. 
Unshed tears were witnessed by no one. 
Anguished, despairing screams of grief, anger and self-loathing were locked behind a muted voice, unheard by none but myself. 
Because even muted, I could internally hear everything in this place that I’d created within my own mind. The tv screens all around me went dim, and the vibrancy of everything in my mind dulled. 
My shoulders slumped, even as I kept my arms wrapped around my legs beneath the knees. Screen staring at nothing, I felt a squeeze within my chest I’d not felt before, as I came to a concussion I’d been avoiding for some time now. 
No one needed me.
No matter what I did, no matter how hard I tried, and no matter how much I attempted to understand…to try to see more than just myself and my need to meet perfection by any and all means.
I had nothing to show for it.
I was alone again.
The area around me grew dimmer than before, greying here and there in place of the vibrant colors of before. 
I just…stopped. 
Tv head and screen sagging against my knees, I made myself as small as possible while something seemed to crack and shatter into pieces within me as I finally just…stopped moving. 
Hanging suspended in my mind, my face eventually shut off while still muted, as I drifted.
It was safer for everyone that way, wasn’t it?
It was safer you and your roommates; for your whole town.
It was better for Smg4 and his crew, to not be reminded of the bad times that I’d orchestrated and been a part of toward the end of it.
It was better for both worlds if I just stayed away, and didn’t bother anyone anymore. That way, no one would have to put up with me any longer.
The channels that people were trapped within when I came here within my mind?
Gone.
I released them back to their homes, since this world would accept them and because, much like Smg4 and the others, they didn’t want nor need me. 
And you…
You…
There was a traitorous twinge in my chest, of unfamiliar grief yet bitter understanding of your actions due to my foolish assumptions and decisions I’d made so carelessly.
After all was said and done, my own arrogance and confidence led me to the same conclusion as before, despite the struggles to have it be otherwise. 
No one…
…wanted me.

The Goomba Who Sold the World AU
Through some cosmic fluke(or just an accident during 3 and 4′s SMG training) an average Goomba with an average life and average ambitions gains the ability to see the Code and use Commands.He doesn’t really do much with it at first, just experimenting with the Commands to see what they do and using them for some minor quality-of-life improvements.
Then he gets to thinking, if these powers can improve his life maybe they can improve other lives too. So he starts subtly changing more things, giving the people around him what he thinks they need in a seemingly selfless gesture. But it...doesn’t work? They’re not happy, despite (because of) the changes, and he doesn’t understand. They should be happy! They should be grateful! Can’t they see that things are better now?! So he doubles down, trying to find something in the Command list that’ll fix things. And then he finds it, way down at the bottom of the Last Resorts section.
[command]>Manual_Override: Characters who see User will obey User without question and defend User at all costs. Does not affect Guardians, Avatars, Administrators, or Outside Entities.
And just like his previous commands, he uses this one as quietly and subtly as possible, not wanting to be a leader(or so he tells himself) but willing to become one for the sake of his Better World.
All of his happens so quietly that it goes completely unnoticed by the crew until they see a broadcast showing The Goomba Who Sold The World telling everyone to Find Mario and the four SMGs, along with instructions on how His World is going to improve.
The only ones not affected besides them are Lil Coding(since it’s the manifestation of 3 and 4′s code so their protection extends to it), Melony(its the one good thing that came from her getting possessed by Niles) and Steve(his Minecraft Server is a separate universe that happens to be connected to the main one, and he didn’t get uploaded like the Newgrounds characters did. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it). And despite there being quite a few powerhouses in the group, it’s still them against Literally Everyone Else(or at least everyone who saw the broadcast), so they’re definitely not gonna have an easy time of it.

SMG4 Simulator Thoughts - Spoilers Ahead!
SMG4 is like me fr when I post a new video
SMG3 hating on his boyfriends video (shame you on you 3, shame on YOU!)
Damn 3 being classed a negative point catch (bro is not doing good today 😔)
PERFECT? PERFECT VIDEO? 😭😭 (NEVER MENTION THE WORD PERFECT TO A SMG34 FAN EVER)
CONTINUITY OF SMG4 WATCHING THOSE ASMR GIRLFRIEND VIDEOS XD (he really needs some one damn)
We love a FNAF reference here
UNDERTALE REFERENCE? AND A KAREN CAMEO? LET'S GOOOOO
START AN ONLY FANS? HE'S NOT THAT DESPERATE 😭
SHREK ONLINE!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Mario being Donkey reminds me of that one SMG34 Shrek AU fanfic. (Mario is sooo Donkey)
Overall thoughts: A fun, silly video that was enjoyable to watch. I honestly didn't expect much right after Mr Puzzles return and I was right in those thoughts.
I do hope for when we get another episode where clench appears (hopefully soon) but I don't know if that character was just a one off bit (I hope not to be honest)

im gonna dump so much au lore OH MY GOD
okay ive been cooking up a little SOMETHING
BASICALLY A 50 FOLLOWER SPECIAL 💥💥
rubs hands deviously /j
SMG4 SHOWTIME AU!!
SMALL HEADS-UP: MOST OF THE AU SURROUNDS AROUND MY OC'S (ST4RSTRUCK, CALLED STAR IN THIS AU) LORE
MAIN STORY:
CW: BRAINWASHING / GORE
( i don't know if its heavy gore but there's some headcutting here so yeah )
its really long 💔💔 its basically a fic idk
This all started when Mr. Puzzles had finally taken the SMG4 cast and brainwashed / forcing them so they can participate in his goofy cartoon TV parodies.
As he released more content for his company, he realized that SMG4 and his crew weren't going to be enough to hit his beloved five star rating.
That same day, he received a text from his daughter, Star. She had asked him if they could meet up, since they haven't seen each other in almost two decades.
After the two had their father-daughter chit-chat, Star mentions that she got the main part in a musical that was happening in a few hours. Intrigued, and happy to be there for his daughter, Mr. Puzzles decided to go to said musical.
That's when Star's talent was truly shown, and the idea clicked so fast in Mr. Puzzles's mind it would have made his head spin.
"Why force a group of amateurs to do something when you have your own star right in front of you?"
That same night, after the event, Mr. Puzzles asked Star if she wanted to work for her as the star in his entertainment company, Puzzlevision.
Star declined, with the reason that she wanted to finish college before she did anything big.
Mr. Puzzles was furious. Not furious at the fact that Star didn't accept, but furious at the fact that he won't be able to get those precious five stars.
Mr. Puzzles thought, why even ask when I can make her participate unwillingly?
With that, Mr. Puzzles brainwashed Star and forced her to become the singing and dancing mascot of Puzzlevision.
But something was wrong. The way she looked, her appearance.. It didn't fit the company's vision at all. Mr. Puzzles thought of an extremely gorey solution to make sure Star fits in with the rest like a puzzle piece.
HE CUT OFF HER FACE AND PUT A TV IN ITS PLACE.
But he wanted Star to be happy in his little circle of entertainment hell. So Mr. Puzzles kidnapped and also brainwashed Star's friends SMG6 and Amber. Mr. Puzzles erased Amber's memories, and the well-being and status of SMG6 is currently unknown to the public eye.
As for the SMG4 crew, they're still stuck in Puzzlevision.
EXCEPT FOR FOUR.
And thanks to Star, Mr. Puzzles had finally gotten his precious five stars.
SMG3, Boopkins, and Luigi escaped Puzzlevision somehow. And thank God that Mr. Puzzles hasn't noticed yet. Mr. Puzzles has taken notice of Melony and has brainwashed her as well. As for Saiko, she stays with 3, Luigi, and Boopkins.
SMG4 STATUS AND INFO:
SMG4: Mr. Puzzles decided to keep SMG4 in his perfect video craze. He's much easier to control that way. The difference between the normal SMG4 and SHOWTIME!SMG4 is that he is way more aggressive and has a light-blue scarf with stars, and star earrings. Both whom he acquired from Star. SMG4 has a necklace with a puzzle charm on it, just like Star, Mario, and Amber do. I wonder what that's about.
MEGGY: Meggy is still stuck in the Western Spagetthi Simulation with Tari and One Shot Wren. Like ever since she has arrived in the simulation, Meggy has been being shot repeatedly by her "idol." Meggy has begged Mr. Puzzles for mercy many times, she had eventually found out that he was the one behind the simulation all along. She has seen Star make a few cameos in Western Spagetthi due to her popularity throughout Puzzlevision. Meggy does not wear a puzzle-charmed necklace.
TARI: Like Meggy, she stays in the Western Spagetthi Simulation. She is attempting to make a small safe spot where the two can talk to each other and relax. But that hasn't been easy since Clench has been malfunctioning lately. It's terrifying having to watch your best friend, and coach, be shot and die in front of you over and over again. The emotion was just so raw. Tari does not wear a puzzle-charmed necklace.
MARIO: Mr. Puzzles despises Mario. He keeps Mario on full lockdown (completely brainwashed, and locked in a room) when he isn't on air. When Mario is on air, he usually does his goofy shenanigans, since he is completely oblivious to what's going on. Mario is kinda sad that SMG4 won't talk to him. Mario sometimes flirts with Star as a joke. Like he always does when they're paired together for a scene. Star is just confused. Mario wears a puzzle-charmed necklace.
BOB: Bob can mostly be seen in the comedy scenes, he's not too popular in the Puzzlevision community. Like Mario, Bob is completely oblivious to the crew being brainwashed. He asked SMG4 if he was on crack when 4 asked him if he remembered anything before Mario's Mysteries. Bob does wonder where Boopkins is though. Bob does not wear a puzzle-charmed necklace.
MELONY: The only reason Mr. Puzzles brainwashed Melony is because of how powerful she is. A deity that could foil his plan in seconds cannot do! All Melony really does is sleep in the Western Spagetthi Simulation. Melony does not wear a puzzle-charmed necklace.
STAR: Star isn't doing too well. She had most recently found out of her father's true intentions. And she is mad. But, sadly, there is nothing she can do about it since Mr. Puzzles has eyes everywhere. Her relationship between her and SMG4 is complicated. She has tried contacting him and telling him what he doing isn't healthy. Yet he continues to work on his computer all the time. Star is worried for SMG4. Star has tried contacting anyone outside of Puzzlevision, she has reached someone outside once, but they didn't respond in time. Before 3 escaped, she gave him her star necklace so he can remember her when he, Saiko, Boopkins, and Luigi break the crew out of Puzzlevision. Star wears a puzzle-charmed necklace.
AMBER: Amber works for Mr. Puzzles, since she doesn't remember anything before waking up and being sat down in a vacant office. Except for the fact that Mr. Puzzles was sitting at the other side of the table, telling her that she worked here. Amber feels a familiar feeling when she is near Star. She's not sure why though, she's never seen her before. Right? Amber writes scripts for Mr. Puzzles's cartoon parodies. And is one of the best workers in Puzzlevision. After Star, of course. Amber wears a puzzle-charmed necklace.
SMG6: N/A
AHHHH THAT'S IT
my fingers hurt KDJFKFKFKFK

any thoughts on the new episode and what did you think about you know Mr. puzzles creation…
not gonna lie I fucking hate that motherfucking puppet
I kinda liked today's ep, it was not as bad as I thought it would be, judging by Puzzles in the thumbnail lmao
Mr. Puzzles made a Classic SMG3-ass plan, it was like a big mix of Shell Shocked, smg4 vs smg3 and SMG3's Gauntlet of Gloom; I dont know if I really like he becoming so much of a non-threat and I would really prefer Marty in roles like this, since his powers come more from...capitalism I guess
Since this ep was co-written by Paul/Medi, there was a bunch of cameos from characters with basically no screentime, something always nice to see, and he always put characters people like to see together hanging out and sitting together (like Saiko and Tari, Bob and Boopkins and 3 and 4)
And X, who also co-wrote the ep, is not beating the "I can't write SMG4 episodes if theres no Bob in it" allegations lmao (not complaining, I love Bob)
As for Pedro, I dont have much to say about him, if he appear again as one of Mario's weird friends/pets (like Slenderman, Siren Head, Greg, Simon the Skibidi Toiled and Marty) I really wouldnt mind lmao
ALSO, we had Mar4, 34 and even Mar34...I felt like it was a w to me; I love to see 3 and 4 scheming together, morally gray boyfriends ftw

I wanna add some more to it but I totally agree with this theory;
both Are You Okay and Trash Friends = shows SMG4/SMG3 having a crisis over their struggle in pursuing success with the other helping him back on his feet and encouraging him to continue (however both with dire unintended consequences?). The target is then temporarily reduced to a background character until his breaking point.
both Mario Goes To Ohio and The Day My Arm Went Psycho = a seemingly unrelated episode focused on Tari and Mario (though less Mario this time) with the last episode’s conflict being nodded to via a small cameo of the targeted character (in the latter case, 3’s advertisement billboard).
(prediction) Mario Delves Into Anti-Piracy Screens and [2/28 Crew Ep] = a mostly disconnected crew episode with foreshadowing of the target’s stress’ upcoming breaking point at the end (in the former, 4 kicked Mario off the computer because he was slowing the WiFi down while he was trying to work).
(prediction) Mario Steals The Constitution and [14x08] = a fun Mario-central episode with a small and ominous further foreshadowing bit involving the target character thrown in (4 last time and most likely 3 this time).
(prediction) Mar10 Day and [14x09] = an episode that, no matter the events of the rest of it, ends with the target reaching their breaking point and lashing out at those closest (and eventually making a deal with the Adware out of desperation). It’s possible that another lengthy livestream could start immediately after the latter episode as well.
can’t wait to see if this is how things unfold!
TL;DR: the current episodes are intentionally mirroring the buildup episodes to IGBP in preparation for the next movie, which should be on March 16th if this ends up being correct.
Hey! Kinda newish to posting here, but I just realised something..
Due to what happened in the new video and it being centred around Tari, it reminded me of something..
Date/week wise, the new video aligns with the Ohio video, and before "Mario goes to Ohio" was "Smg4... are you okay?"
What does that video align with?
Tumblr media
"Trash friends"
My theory is that the video order will be similar to last year's, and if my theory is correct.
Next week, we could get a video like "Mario steals the Constitution," where the video itself might have little to do with the problem character(most likely Smg3) while hinting at the conciquences of the character's issues.
Then, we get the video where said character reaches his breaking point (aka smg4 in Mar10 Day)
We'll likely get a livestream, and then on Wednesday, we'll get a trailer for the movie.
Recieving said movie on the Saturday of that week.
