not forcibly assigning phil a dad role in every single rp relationship regardless of if it actually makes sense is not just about not being annoying and forcing ooc headcanons onto characters, but like character wise it’s actually extremely good for characters to have relationships on equal ground. this is why c!emeraldduo Not being family is so good, because both phil and techno’s characters lacked equal-ground relationships and so having a closely trusted friend who is an equal was a very powerful dynamic. in both dsmp and qsmp phil Is a guiding or paternal figure in a lot of ways for a lot of other characters and because of that, him having relationships that are Different than that is really important and good

#because this is a topic being discussed on the dash today #i can speak for d smp a lot more than q cause i really Only watch phil on q lmao #techno and phil were literally kind of Above it all by virtue alone of just being immortal #techno was isolated and used as a weapon and put on a pedestal which meant he had very few equals #phil was a paternal figure for at least two major people; was untouchable by virtue of his proximity to techno too #when involved with others phil often took on a nurturing if not meddling sort of role where he intended to help and guide people #of course he’s a little bit deranged so his perception of Helping can be wacky kekw #but yeah both of them lacked equals #techno Especially #so cemeralds was so special……..

btw as an inniter how do you feel about c!Tommy being immune. Personally I like to see it as random chance/luck and not him being god's special little guy. c!Tommy isn't the only one on the server with partial or full resistance. But also his immunity being used by c!Sam or c!Puffy, to justify treating former eggpire members with suspicion or hostility. After all Tommy was immune, why couldn't they have just fought harder. It must be a moral failing. :)

I do have a lot of thoughts (both science related ones (think like last f us) and also his relation to Prime/religion ones bc i am a big fan of religious ctommy forever hehe).

But I also see it as a connection to his narrative at the time. The point of the Hotel arc was to go back to his roots. Connection. To start a project and open his doors to everyone. To be a part of the server again. to people, not to wars, sides, whatever. He invited everyone cemerald, ctubbo in snowchester, and even cdream. he was free and invited cdream to visit it when he got it. Hotel Arc was hope. And his immunity to the egg stood witht hat. There was at ime during this immunity he took a part of the Egg (without being injured) and was going to keep it in the hotel so that the hotel was welcome to the Eggpire as well. Though Sam Nook told him to "be a hero to stop the egg" he told him he didnt want to be a hero. He wanted to be a cause of no war.He wanted everyone to be happy, to come to this hotel, and for him to shrug off the weight the narrative put on him. SO his immunity fits with that, with his will to want to be connected to everyone (not saying it was his willpower that prevented egg infection im just saying the fact he was immune fits with this narrative).

Also the moral failing thing fuckkk youre making me ill and the suspicion against the eggpire who was LITERALLY MIND CONTROL makes me ohhh im going tobe a major lorehead and defend these guys again esp channah.
