#wlwdwtys ask

[nomsfaultau]

I just realized that The Blade has almost the same power and Lion-fricking-Blaze from warrior cats. I realised that and laughed for like a minute straight imagining the two fighting. Specifically, Lionblaze is said, in the prophecy, to "be more powerful than Starclan" (place where dead cats go. Basically cat religion.) and to "be undefeated in battle". As far as I know that just means he's ridiculously strong, he doesn't have the reality bending abilities. I think. But I haven't read any books with him so yeah. So. Question. Who would win if they theoretically existed in the same universe? Can we get a literal cat yeeting The Blade? Pls pls pls. I'd love to see your sketch on that. Or just a description. Whatever you wanna.

hold up I think hes in one of the few WC books I’ve read! …..great question if he’s subconsciously part of The Blade’s power set

Since I joked that The Blade is a form of afterlife, and Lionblaze is stronger than starclan, checks out to me.

🎭— sorry im in a song roll today. and that means im spreading my "who lives, who dies, who tells your story" & cheong myeong agenda here because boy do i love mashing two interests of mine with zero things in common

main notes:

"Let me tell you what I wish I'd known, when I was young and dreamed of glory. You have no control, who lives, who dies, who tells your story." — Self explanatory tbh. cm has many regrets and things he'd never known back when he was the pbss. he had no control in the ones who remained on hwasan, the attack on mount hua, nor the people who still talked about the past glory of their sect.

"Every other founding fathers' story gets told, Every other founding father gets to grow old, And when you're gone, who remembers your name? Who keeps your flame? Who tells your story?" — Everyone else who participated in the war continued relatively normal, and it was mainly only Mount Hua who suffered the most afterwards. Nobody was there to keep their legacy alive, and iy was really only the beast clan who truly remembered their name.

"I put myself back in the narrative. (Eliza) I stop wasting time on tears, I live another 50 years, it's not enough. (Eliza)" — (ignore the name) Basically just .. you know, Cheong Myeong living once more, not having time for grief and pushing away any feelings to build the sect back up.

"I try to make sense of your thousands of pages of writings, You really do write like you're running out of time." — I interpret this as either.. when Cheong Myeong first saw the vault, or when him just constantly writing technique books for the sect.

"I ask myself, what would you do if you had more time. The Lord, in his kindness, He gives me what you always wanted. He gives me more time." —Cheong Myeong asking himself what his Sahyung would do if he were still alive. He was given more time and he dedicated it all for the Sect, because the sect is his home and the only thing that ever mattered to him, the only place that cared for him.

"Oh, can I show you what I'm proudest of? ...... In their eyes I see you, Alexander. I see you every time, And when my time is up, Have I done enough? Will they tell your story? .... Oh, I can't wait to see you again. It's only a matter of time."

— Cheong Myeong, who is so proud of his sect— his children. Who asked his sahyung if he was proud of him. Seeing the ghosts of his past in the eyes of other people. His sahyung in Hyung Jong and Yoon Jong, Tang Bo in the other Tang family members, etc. And, of course, inevitable, Cheong Myeong will have to leave the sect to the hands of the other sect members. It will be up to them if they will be able to carry onward, to tell the stories of past sect members. And of course Cheong Myeong just missing his Sahyung and family....

this might be too long. im not sure though. Anyways..... WLWDWTYS CHEONG MYEONG CANON BABYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! MY AGENDA WILL SPREAD

Things Ash Hunter does as Hamilton that are perfect:

- The wonder in his eyes and the grin he makes when he sings his name for the first time

- The way he looks at Burr with awe and fear before he speaks to him

- “Oh am I talking to loud” cringe face

- How he powers through the final my shot rap without breathing

- The bromance with Lauren’s and how he nearly kicks him in the face in the story of tonight

- Hey hey hey heyyyyyyyyyyy

- “Schuyler???” Running his hand through his hair when meeting Eliza.

- The way he sings Eliza in helpless. Also Angelica tried to take a bite of me face scrunching.

- The lingering glance at the end of Satisfied.

- Pushing mulligan away from kissing him and mouthing BAD BREATH during SOT reprise.

- “OH SHIT” seven octaves higher than any other Hamilton.

- The pout he gives when Washington says “Have Lafayette take the lead!”

- The hug push he gives Lauren’s to stop him going inside with him during Meet Me Inside

- The immediate shock and regret face after screaming “CALL ME SON ONE MORE TIME”

- The way he belts out “there are screams and church bells ringing” in the most perfect singing voice ever.

- All. Of. Dear. Theodosia.

- The smugness throughout non stop.

- How up in Burrs grill he gets when asking him to help him write the essays.

- Lezzzzz go

- Waving the audience to cheer him on in Cabinet Battle #1

- How Phillip can basically lift him off the ground in Take a break and he bursts out laughing as Phillip runs up the stairs.

- The extremely loud “yes Yes YEs YES” in Say No to This that make me wanna look away.

- The salute he gives Burr in Room Where it Happens

- The “he’s not even worth it” face he gives when Jefferson goes “Daddies calling!”

- The adoration he shows Washington in One Last Time.

- Hurricane. All. Of. It. It. Broke. Everyone.

- Singing “Slow down” in Blow us all away.

- I can’t even talk about Stay Alive reprise and It’s Quiet Uptown cause he was so damn emotional and just wowwww.

- Kissing Eliza’s hand in BoWaBoW

- His face lighting up for Eliza in WLWDWTYS

So yeah he’s pretty great and I have no desire to see any other Hamilton again ever.

[whatwouldbeenough]

Why does Ari's Eliza stand out? What makes her your favorite?

I’ll be deadass honest and say she’s even more incredible for me because she was the reason I stopped hating this character and actually fell in love with Eliza. Like that alone makes me so biased to her so there’s that. She was such a change from most of the audios I had heard of Pippa before who was really the only other Eliza I had heard and really really did not like. I think that is one of the reasons for sure she’ll always be one of my if not my definite favorite.

But anyways to what actually makes her stand out. 

I’ve loved her since day one. Like I said because of that other ask I got (which I will eventually answer) I’ve started relistening to every one of the 50 audios I have of her. While I totally get that Burn is Eliza’s song like she’s gotta fuck that up, my only “complaint” about the first like month or so from what I can tell in audios was that Ari hadn’t figured out where she was supposed to let Eliza show her anger in Burn. From the beginning her Helpless was perfect, her WLWDWTYS was great. She got pissy and annoyed in Non-Stop which I love. She took a while to get the scream at the end of Stay Alive (Reprise) but it was clear she was just getting too emotional there to even let that out. 

So. I’ve always thought she was pretty great. But I’ll be the first to say this woman was on an exponentially upward trajectory with her interpretation of this character and her acting and her singing. She did nothing but get better. There was a ton of pressure on her originating this role in a new company and her voice is really nothing like Pippa’s (both beautiful but they’re different) and I love that Ari never tried to make herself sound like Pippa, she let the strength in her voice add to Eliza’s strength. She doesn’t have the same soft presence really ever that a lot of Elizas have (huge differentiation here with her and my other fav Solea).

Her Eliza was not fucking here for Hamilton’s shit and I loved that. 

I always really love her in Stay Alive (Reprise) when her worry/sadness turns into spitting fire at Alexander when she asks who shot Philip. It’s not something she did every time but that song is never 100% consistent with any Eliza because it’s so emotional there. There are tiny specific things she does that I love that I’m not good enough at words with to explain. 

But there’s a short essay I’m sure you didn’t want.

[nomsfaultau]

(Potentially) daily ask №9

Random scenarios edition!

Everyone in the fault crew suddenly turns fully human. No special abilities, no nothing. So Wilbur doesn't have the void thing anymore and has a fixed height. Tommy doesn't have the red anymore. Philza turns completely human with no ability to turn back to a dragon or a god anymore, also mortal now. Blade gets the pink hair anime girl-like fanon C!Techno design, with blood god getting a new vessel (some sword. Which is now sentient and posessed by him.) and the voices just getting wrecked along with the blood god. Tubbo gets turned human (system still stays though), and if they don't have any prosthetics then their legs get magically restored as well just cause it'd be cruel not to cause their only option would be to yk crawl. What would happen after?

Ace attorney aka the court game. Tommy's the one getting sued and the rest of the crew serve as the lawyers, and they're standing against all the prosecutors in the game at the same time for funsies. Alternatively if you don't know the characters of ace attorney, you can put Tubbo and Phil as the lawyers, Tommy as the suspect and Wilbur and Techno as the persecutors. Who would win assuming that murder and mind control isn't allowed in court?

They have to make a high school group project/presentation for whatever reason. The project is on sharks. Just different kinds of sharks. Tommy seems like the guy who'd like sharks. How well does it go?

1.Wilbur is having a CRISIS. This is everything it always longed for and refused to admit it wanted. This whole tangle of jealousy, envy, discrimination, self loathing, and now it's just exploded. Wilbur's brain probably breaks for awhile, doesn't know how to handle being very suddenly confronted with his self deception. Wildly running hope and hatred in nearly equal measures. I don't think it would ever get over the oppression at the hands of humans even once it had privileged.

Techno is also having a crisis for funnier reasons, since bruhh he's a bishōnen now?? Where's the muscle? Where's the FAT?? He's utterly baffled with how weak and tiny he is. Really likes how small his metabolism is now tho, since he has to put in wayyy less effort given he needs like 2% of the calorie intake he used to have (rough estimate I've done a lot of math over how much this man needs to eat but can't recall atm). And he has fingers. Like proper fingers!! He can TOUCH AND FEEL THINGS. And COMPLETE BODILY AUTONOMY! Take THAT! Meanwhile The Blood God is desperately trying to get the sword destroyed so that it can escape and get a better vessel because it did NOT agree to this! ...but also wouldn't kill you, because The Blood God's relationship to The Blade was not what it'd hoped it'd be.

I'm going to say Tubbo has prosthetics now since instant magic healing without consent has a history of uh connotations. Plus now they can actually go to a hospital and get proper prosthetics, although probably not without a lot of medical hassle. I don't think Tubbo would actually know how to move their body like at all? Since their previous method of movement was so alien from muscles. The human Hive members would help in that sense, and probably front a lot for awhile while Tubbo tries to figure that out since they don't know how to speak or eat or

Philza is having a panic attack on the floor because he's not immortal anymore and that is a LOT to deal with for a man who is ~4 billion years old. He's probably going to handle this the worst of everyone. Also shaken deeply by the fact he'll die before his children do, unable to protect them. That he has to pay mind to pain now, not just push past for the sake of his Collected. Philza is...probably not going to ever recover tbh. He's familiar with grieving for others, but never for himself.

Tommy is psyched as hell and hugging everyone. Pretty similar to the bracelet ask. Plus now the Foundation has no reason to study him, right? ...right? (the Foundation will be going insane about this new development, and will probably have a very easy time capturing them now. Everyone would be released afterwards....but probably amnesticized to hell and back.)

2. I have ~some familiarity with Ace Attorney, given Mandatory Family Reunion turns into a surprise crossover with it for like two chapters. Turns out Edgeworth and Quackity are PEAK comedy duo. ...And technically Tommy does go on trial in Fault, though it's halfway between that and a confessional with Rhodes acting as judge jury and...not executioner, since that was Tommy's job in the Foundation 😬. I think Tommy would be terrible on stand, and at some point just start cussing Edgeworth out. I imagine 'muffin' censorship would pop up like hold it and objection bubbles. Tubbo is tearing their hair out because the ace attorney system is NOTHING like an actual court room and Rhodes is really enraged at the injustice of it. I think Wilbur could have fun on the investigation side of things, and Philza could be the teen anime girl sidekick of the week whose random anecdotes about old immortal stuff helps solve the case. The Blade only believes in the second amendment so he's probably just eating popcorn and plans to break out Tommy when he inevitably loses. Because well the guys and flies would certainly try but the ace attorney courts are hellish. Franziska's whip probably got ate by Wilbur, which is good before it triggered The Blood God. Tubbos' near omnipresence could probably really prove how corrupt Debeste is. Manfred Von Karma....'s body turns up in a dirty alley oh noooo welp can't be helped it happened outside the court 🤷

3. Tommy declares himself the group leader and tries to boss everyone around to some success, since he does have a talent for ringleading, but there's definitely a lot of bickering and teasing that are not the mark of an effective leader. Wilbur doesn't know what a school project is but will provide eldritch sharks and can probably speak Evil Shark which would involve turning his mouth into that of a sharks, which they use for demonstrations during the presentation. The Blade adores procrastinating. But also he's beaten up a shark before probably, Cali boy and all that, so bonus points for personal experience. Philza is fairly goal orientated and wants them to do well and kinda carries the group tbh. But also he mixes in historically believed myths about sharks oops. Tubbo is insanely good at multi-tasking but the dyslexia makes research more painful. Tubbo pushes for a (much needed) extension on the project deadline on the basis of disabillity accommodations and thus is the sole reason it's completed before the due date. It's not informative but it is a very entertaining project. B-

I Need Your Opinion!!

So as I approach 1,000 followers (*screaming*) I’ve been thinking on how I want to celebrate. I’m going to do a few things that I won’t reveal yet, but one thing is for sure. I want to do something that I’m more nervous to do than I was to post my first story. Sing a Hamilton song!

So I don't know what song to sing. Honestly, I should just upload me singing the entire musical by myself. Anyway, I want to sing one or two songs so I need some help choosing. I could sing:

1. Helpless

2. Satisfied

3. Eliza’s part in Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story

4. Congratulations (this is an Off-Broadway song that didn’t make the final cut.)

So let me know what you guys want to hear. (I was thinking Congratulations and then either Helpless or WLWDWTYS) Either comment or send me an ask and I’ll take all of everybody's suggestion into consideration. You can also suggest any other song from the musical. Thank you!

Have a fabulous day!

[nomsfaultau]

First ask since the daily ask ended hehe

If you had to make fault into a time loop story, what time period would you choose for each character and how would it go?

Clarification. You get to choose a time period (ex. Hour, day, couple of days, event, week) that each character has to repeat for over and over until they get out of it somehow. You get to choose from everything that has happened in the character's lives so far, whether it be in text or just living in your head. For clarification the character from that point in time has to repeat it, not the current character getting teleported into the past. And you can choose the rest of the circumstances for the characters, how the time loop works, how to break it, etc etc.

I just got this idea spontaneously and got curious. (Psssttt I was watching a In stars and time video essay)

Technically the amnestic arc is reverse ground hog day for Phil lmao. 

Anyway I thought the 1st part worked best for this ask considering it has a very defined start (Tubbo captured) and end (they escape). Since we don’t see anyone but clingy duo during that time, and because Tommy has limited capabilities, I elected to shove the time loop on Tubbo given information gathering and ability to effect things outside their cell. So the moment Tubbo is carried outside, they wake up smoke drowsy and half dead in their cell. Or say a month, since otherwise it could be years or lifetimes between the loop restarting given difficulties escaping. 

Tubbo naturally assumes the way to get out is to escape without anyone being killed. This is their chance to do it right. So simple things like asking the Farmer for permission to eat the potatoes to prevent a slaughter. At least…until armed with hind sight Tubbo is able to realize that’s The Blade. And they still have that trauma from losing their legs even if it’s now been undone, are terrified of The Blade above all else. It’s going to be many many loops before they can properly talk to him, and maybe could eventually have an easier time getting to bond with him, particularly with the lack of intense pain and the investigation done into trying to figure out how to prevent attacks. Cause just have Tommy Collect them before hand or it’s fine. Or they’ll have Rhodes adopt Jasmine it probably counts and would be permanent. Now. This would have to be a topic I handle very delicately, since the ‘magical un-do button’ on injury/disability is a very ableist trope, one which I haven’t always handled with grace. Things like erasing disabled representation at the very least, and at most catastrophic could imply things like ‘in the GOOD timeline Tubbo isn’t disabled because they did everything right this time’ which is pretty icky to me for the implying disability as a punishment/intolerable outcome angle. Idk how I’d try to go about it though. 

Also they’d try to get to Tommy as soon as possible. Small problem on that front: Tommy will not leave his cell unless compelled through the sirenic properties of an invitation to join the Hive. And Tubbo is hella traumatized from Rosalind, so that probably wouldn’t happen for a loop or two. But they need Tommy so so badly. Repeatedly asking Tommy and waiting for that rejection is probably painful as hell, but probably more in the cringe way as time goes on. Since originally Tubbo did it very much out of survival desperation and changeling instinct, which is embarrassing to reenact. 

Tubbo would also like immediately try to figure out the deal with UnCollection. Maybe not necessarily like trying to stop it since they think Philza is awful (though not terrified of him like they are post amnestic arc which won’t happen until time loop is broken) and Tommy is better off without him. But when Phil is like immediately ‘what no I would never’ and then Tommy is UnCollected anyway and he doesn’t know what’s happening, then they’d do investigated the 2-4th loops and figure out it was Foundation plot. While still shaded by murder from the Hallway and escape, they’d begin to find him a very useful source of information and strategy. Plus he is like. An actual source of good mental health advice unlike Tommy, and starts feeling like an emotional support unlike Tommy who is more like clinging onto a fellow drowning person. Might actually come out of it neutral to pro Philza. 

The real question is…does ALL of Tubbo remember? Because presumably you’d want Rhodes and Jasmine aware of what happened, and all the bees to be on the same page. Which leads me to believe that Rosalind would still be part of the hivemind. A separate body, somewhat, but still Tubbo. Which could mean that both Tubbo could take control of Rosalind’s body, and she could take control of theirs. Potentially? But they definitely can communicate telepathically. 

Because I like that death march for both of them, of knowing this ends in her brutal death, of knowing this ends in the shattering of their morals. They can’t ever fully undo it, the mistake irreversible, a permanent stain that both have to live with. The horror of Tubbos’ biggest regret born from survivalistic terror, having to ask if they’d make that choice again and again without the pressure of panic. A conscious and controlled choice to destroy someone, not driven by instinct and desperation.

Technically, this gets into the slightly nebulous territory of if Rosalind is even part of the Foundation at the start of the loop, since her first day of (interacting with the anomalies at least) is a week after Tubbo is captured. From what I can tell she joined willingly as opposed to the more standard ‘oh you’ve been traumatized by an anomaly hire time’ approach. This could mean she simply…never steps foot in the Foundation again. Walks away from Omelas as it were. For a couple loops that’s what she does at least, but Tubbos’ line of what happens to us if all the good people leave? would haunt her uncontrollably, as would their determination to rescue everyone plus constant appeals to her. Rosalind would willingly return to the Foundation and begin helping under the promise that Tubbo won’t kill her.

And I can’t imagine the look on Tubbos’ face when they realize they could have survived the beheading. That Rosalind didn’t have to die. Cycle after cycle of cutting off pieces of themselves over and over, pushing themselves to last long enough to make it to the reset no matter what they have to sacrifice. The long term effects would be so unique. Do they stop using their left hand if it’s gone more often than not? Does the phantom pain remain even if the limb is still there? 

It’s poking around in information she shouldn’t be that gets Rosalind Keter duty with Tubbo, and early loop investigations would keep this part consistent as they try to build info. With better handling of Lawrence, Clingy Duo and Rosalind escape. Only for Tubbo to wake up again in the cell. 

Okay. So now they start trying to figure out how to get The Blade, Wilbur, Philza, Skeppy, Halo, and Charlie out without murder. Hella complicated but they could get very clever between small bees infiltrating everywhere seeing everything moving stuff around and having a Foundation employee working with them. They have a month and literally all the time in the world to figure it out. And then they get everyone out and wake up in the cell again. 

They get intensive about it. Running over schemes over and over because they and Rosalind can get obsessive about planning, and could get really perfectionist  with it. Could get to the point where they find a way to get everyone in the Foundation out. Probably convince Philza to help with it if they explain the ‘Tommy Collected us and it’s a time loop’ since he does have enough control to fight without deaths. Now he would be planning to come back later and raze it but they’d never find out because after years of loops and they finally break every single anomaly out and they. Wake. Up. In that cell again. Do it all again and Tubbo stays, Tubbo chooses to never step foot out even when everyone else is free because Tubbo above all places the collective above the individual.

Because my partner in crime decided Tubbos’ win condition: every last Foundation worker is dead. 

My partner in crime insisted that at some point in eternity Tubbo would start killing people, but believe me I wrote an entire play about the whole time loop serial killer thing and it takes a certain set of character flaws to get there. Tubbos’ flaws are literally exactly what it takes to not become a time loop serial killer. They are stubborn, and determined, and murder is what stuck them in the time loop in the first place by their logic. This is the chance to absolve their guilt if only they can get it right. The whole ‘fleeting pointlessness of human lives that are eventually replaced/reset’ doesn’t work with Tubbo because they’re literally made of bees that live a month, indistinguishable multitudes. The lives cannot lose value to Tubbo, ESPECIALLY as they get to know each one so painfully intimately. 

Tubbo never escapes the time loop. They can’t. Tubbo is self sacrificial to a fault and cares far more for the collective over an individual freedom. And so much like in that original loop so long ago, they fall into disassociations and escapism, each loop fading into one another, indistinguishable fog blurring everything into nothing. 

Cool Anyways we decided if The Blade was in a time loop only the voices would know, and The Blade would be freaked out after a couple hundred loops where the voices gather enough cohesion to just fully speak in unison complex precognitive sentences. They straight up unionize in order to escape the time loop and The Blood God becomes obsessed with replicating that cohesion bc man loves the power of team work. Very much giving infinite monkeys type writers situation. We tried to make Philza’s win condition literally just not torturing Webb to death for one single loop but he’d wait however many loops it took for the Collected Covenant reparation period to pass before he started enacting hellish revenge, so Webb would live the first few times and it wouldn’t work. Also if Tommy was in Tubbos’ time loop he deffo would find a way to kill everyone and hate himself about it. Like he straight up tells subsumed Rosalind to her face she’s lucky she was dealing with Tubbo cause he would’ve just murdered her.

I just spontaneously manifested an au for you. So yk how the whole not-Tommy's character arc is hanging onto Phil being kind and protective? Yeah so what if he actually got into a family where that wasn't the case? For the purposes of this au, it's DadSchlatt au. So yeah, Schlatt and Tubbo. And Tubbo gets replaced by the demon kid. And not-Tommy/Tubbo then proceeds to learn that apparently the blood connection doesn't, indeed, force parents to protect their children. What happens next? Also it'd be fun if not-Technoblade and not-Wilbur still get to sbi and how their story goes on there without not-Tommy.

“Tubbo” picked the mark because it was easier to hide if he was already meant to have spiraling horns. “Tommy” had never expected blood protection to go further than not actively attacking children for the most part, so it wasn’t a shock to him. To “Tubbo” indifference was still godly compared to what he went through in hell. His guard was slower to lower, but also he didn’t have those hackle raising moments of confused wariness compared to with Philza. It would still be a process of slowly learning he didn’t have to be bracing for the hit all the time, and there’d be a degree of finding safety in the cover. “Tubbo” didn’t take Tubbo to be loved, though, only to have a disguise to hide in to avoid the consequences of various heinous crimes. So it kinda went exactly according to plan. Schlatt wasn’t a vigilant guardian, and it was far easier to slip out and cause havoc than with the overbearing Philza. Even better, Schlatt seemed unphased with the violence beginning to plague the land, not drawing his kid closer like Philza would’ve. 

He’d expected the family to eventually notice. “Tubbo” wasn’t particularly convincing, and grew lax with the secret. Why didn’t Schlatt notice? Weeks, months, years, how did he not notice his kid was long gone? Did he not care? 

I’m not your real son. 

“Tubbo” was amused when he finally said it, all jagged teeth and cruel entertainment. An impulsive reveal; he wanted watch for the horror to crawl onto the man’s features. 

You think I’d want you enough to adopt you?

And then Schlatt didn’t seem to remember the exchange the next morning, more concerned with his hangover. Or maybe he just really didn’t care. Either way was fine by “Tubbo”. He liked to toy with the idea “Father” might even like him better than Tubbo, given how passive and meek and pliant he’s been so long ago. Far less interesting than “Tubbo”. But either way Schlatt was useful, ensuring “Tubbo” was an expected, unremarkable piece of the village even as it plummeted into ruin at his hands.

Then one day, “Tubbo” grew bored. He simply walked off, never to be seen again. He didn’t kill Schlatt, blaming his sentimentality on the human having served his use. Because even neglected as he was, apathy was still the greatest kindness he ever knew. The demon integrated into the next family, and the next. Only briefly, once, did he wonder if Schlatt had even noticed “Tubbo’s” absence at all.

“Wilbur” and “Technoblade” were far far better imposters than “Tommy” and were scrambling as their delicate balance was bombarded. The ruse could go on for a very long time, not pressured and panicked about “Tommy” rocking the boat and killing enough people to scare Philza into becoming stricter and paranoid. They’d likely start getting along better, helping cover up for one another. “Wilbur” would additionally be intensive about being a good “brother” to the real Tommy, just like he’s desperate for Philza’s affection and attention. Overall they’re far more chill than “Tommy” and would be far less stressed. 

What eventually unravels the Not-Craft household in the OG is Philza’s unequal treatment of his children. Because part of the reason “Tommy” gets utterly showered in affection in the first chapter is because Philza is scared about the people going missing and is trying to protect his youngest kid. But the building resentment was based heavily on “Tommy” not being real, either, and getting that treatment. With “Wilbur’s” assumption that Philza knew and was still treating him the worst of the imposters, it became something that blew up. But if Tommy were real, and “Wilbur” again unraveled that Philza figured it out…it would just seem natural to him. Of course he loved his real kid more, but that’s didn’t mean he wasn’t treating the other imposters okay. “Wilbur” would be completely content to continue the illusion, although kinda rotting on the inside. Since “Technoblade” would never learn Philza knew, perpetually acting on the assumption he’d have sold them out if so, they’d never get their character development because they’d always dismiss any of Philza’s advice because they wouldn’t trust or respect him. Philza grieved his children, but had far more freedom than in OG timeline. Combined with a lack of transparency, he never developed empathy for the imposters. 

“Wilbur” wouldn’t see his death coming. Neither would “Technoblade,” but they wouldn’t be surprised, either. Just bitterly resentful.

What language does Fault! Wilbur think in? I mean, he can understand.. all of them kinda? As a person who speaks 5 languages my internal dialogue occasionally sounds something like "Dammit, where did ona положила le pomme?? Awh kurwa блять." I am struggling to imagine what that would sound like with all languages simultaneously. Thoughts and prayers to him 😔🙏 /j

What about the other ones? What language does the Blood God think in? The voices? Philza? Rosalind? (I think she has like heritage, ain't sure if she speaks any other languages). Actually are any other characters bilingual?

I...don't know what language Wilbur thinks in. Definitely not any human one cause hello prejudice. I doubt there is a universal/majority void language. Potentially thinks in an absolute slew of eldritch tongues. The grammar must be a NIGHTMARE.

The voices/The Blood God speak the universal language of violence, but it's translated into English for the convenience of the vessel since The Blood God was like 'well I'm picking a cool vessel in the USA so I'll make it the majority tongue for convenience :)' and then picked a PIG. But the voices are how The Blade learned how to speak.

Philza has been using mostly English for a few centuries, though when really mad sometimes slips into a bunch of profanity from across millennia. I believe Mandarin Chinese and Sumerian are specifically mentioned, but unlike Wil he has no magic polygot abilities and simply studies and practices so knows tons of languages...many very out of date. There probably is some void-type speak for fire/fury aligned creatures but Draconic is probably what he more associates as his native tongue given that was his main go to at early stages of his sentience.

Rosalind thinks in Spanish more than English, but it's a mixture. Also has some Latin from prayers/hymns, but it's dusty and less from actual lessons and more exposure. Tubbo as a whole also has some sort of nature pestilence language that they can talk to Wilbur using. Plus Lawyer Jargon.

Tommy claims to speak Spanish but this is simply untrue, just a few words he's picked up. Can recognize a few Draconian words, but obviously can't say them. Red speaks Violence.
