The NK Purpled Backstory™️
my friends are tired of me chattering about this in their dms so I’m putting it here /lh
—
Purpled’s parents dropped him at Hypixel. They dipped. Didn’t want a kid. So he was picked up by the system, trained until he was eight, and sent into the smaller games with a trainer (the system called them mentors, but no one actually used that) watching his every move.
he’s been through a few trainers, as is custom with the Hypixel system. you cycle through so you don’t gain attachments. his kindest trainer, X, knew everything about bedwars. Purpled was half-convinced he made the game, but he never got to ask before it cycled again.
weekends are the only free time you get in Hypixel. he meets with tiredtwt through running into two kids trying to corner him, who quickly become his friends. every weekend he goes back to tiredtwt- he isn’t even sure why, he swears he isn’t attached. It’s him, Eighty, Chaz, Walli and Sammy. Then Astelic, Hannah, Levi, David, Boomer, Jojo, Squid and.. a lot more, he realizes. a lot of people who care about him.
it’s been amazing, the past few years with the group they’ve made. it’s all leading up to stay that way. until he’s at a game and it’s a 1v1- extra money, if you get out alive. he knows he has this bagged until he realizes it’s Walli, it’s Walli he’s against. it’s Walli, who’s begging Purpled to win, to get the money they need for tiredtwt. for their friends- or, really, their family.
Walli cant kill Purpled. Purpled is at the top of the leaderboard, and both boys know everyone’s bets are on the blonde to win. they know that Hypixel cheats, that Walli won’t make it anyway. Purpled’s numb, but he’s faintly aware of the tears running down his face. That’s his first brother figure gone.
and he’s dragged into the higher system again. he can’t go back, both because of Hypixel and the guilt. (second brother figure gone!) and he meets Punz. they’re like a brother to him, which is a bit ironic as how trainers aren’t supposed to be that. he tries not to think about anything again. he’s an attraction and he may as well act like one. he figures out how to appeal to the viewers, with a sarcastic personality that’s still fun to watch. he’s been earning his own for years, what’s so different about now?
he overhears talk about a new server, made by a famous speedrunner. he knows Punz is friends with Dream, and surely has an invite pending, so when he spots Dream online in a lobby with his little team, he challenges them to a fight. he wins, they let him in. he needs an out, he needs to get out of here as soon as possible. he wins the matches, of course, and gets into the DreamSMP.
he wonders, a few years later to joining, if he’d have preferred Hypixel now. after everything. after realizing he’s stuck here, just as he was before.
