hi I’m WSD \o/!! this is a little sideblog I’ve created to recap Felps’ arkanis streams!!
some information:
what this blog will NOT be:
an updates account (if you have bluesky, go to arkanisfelpsupd for something like that)
on time (I have a job… I will try my best though)
formal—as mentioned I’m kind of low on time and will be focusing more on conveying information than conveying it formally
timestamped—If there’s an important conversation happening I might try to timestamp it, but it’s not at the top of my priority list
I’m not fluent enough in Portuguese (and don’t have the time to) to accurately transcribe and then translate things. any quote you see is non-verbatim and is more there for the vibe rather than accuracy, although I will try to be as close to accurate as possible
this blog is essentially a summary of Felps arkanis streams so people can keep up to date with what happened on them if they don’t have time to watch \o/
however I’ll probably be writing down a lot more information than necessary for just that? I will also try to include moments that help with characterisation, moments that showcase his relationships with the other characters, and in general enough information to help people pinpoint things they might be looking for
if anyone wants to use these posts for a wiki or something like that feel free, but please let me know first?
links to each vod recap under the cut (will be constantly updated as I post them):
(once i catch up i will go back and fill in the vods i missed)
hi guys! just putting an official statement here I suppose that I probably won’t continue with this project? at least any time in the near future
unfortunately I am just too busy + there isn’t really enough interest in the project for me to want to prioritise it during the few hours I have off
if you would like me to continue it you can show support via sending asks or reblogging the recaps I do have up currently. I am happy to try and continue the project if I see there is genuine interest there
half of this vod was wandering around Valigma and talking about upgrading his items, while the other half was going through the dungeon to find denix \o/! (well… other stuff happened between and around all that, but this is the bigger stuff—see below for more information!)
a little note that none of the quotes are verbatim transcripts or translations but are instead meant to convey the vibe of what was said as accurately as I could do quickly
reblogs appreciated \o/
-Felps has a shader working and either that or some other settings has made it so the horns’ sparkles keep getting in his face. He switches them out for the cat ears again before switching those out for the flower \o/
-he doesn’t spend much time in the base today and heads straight to valigma
-he uses the mirror to teleport back to his bed because he wants to try upgrading the mirror. then goes back to Valigma
-talks about the different items he has + some of their upgrades for a bit
-stops to fill in a creeper hole a little, then continues running around Valigma and talking about the items
-Felps decides to go to the modded abandoned mineshaft he was at a few vods ago. he also confirms that he won’t go to the cube without Meiaum
-he runs into a “bubble entity” which looks like some kind of flying fish that keeps putting him in a bubble (the bubble just lifts him up for a bit before popping. with the bunny slippers he doesn’t take fall damage, but it doesn’t go that high anyway)
-he looks at an enderman and runs, but the bubbly entity is still bubbling him while the enderman attacks him
-he doesn’t have a sword. It broke sometime last time he was streaming on arkanis and he never replaced it (his armour is also nearly broken)
-he managed to get away from the bubble entity but the enderman is still chasing him and there are other monsters
-He tries to use the mirror to escape back to his base but the teleport keeps resetting when he takes damage
-he does manage to get away enough to use it though \o/ with two and a half hearts to spare pfft
-he looks at backpack upgrades. he can’t make any yet, but it seems like he wants the crafting upgrade + maybe the automatic feeding upgrade
-he smelts some more of his iron so he can make some armour
-he puts down one of the skeletons he got from the graveyard at the cube and it makes an ominous sound
-he keeps picking it up and putting it back down. He’s keeping it in his hats backpack in case he needs to play a dramatic sound effect
-makes himself a new set of iron armour + makes a diamond sword (he took a look at the other types of weapons you could make with the mods but prefers the classic sword) as well as an iron pickaxe
-him and guaxi talk via walkie talkie a little \o/ (even though he starts the conversation guaxi still scares him a little when he responds pfft)
-guaxi says he’s at “Felps’ stone” and Felps teleports back to base thinking it’s a code name for that pfft
-Felps tells him to refer to it as cubão and heads there to meet guaxi
-as he’s walking there he tells guaxi he’s arrived. he keeps trying to argue that he is there and guaxi is calling him a liar pfft
-Felps admits he isn’t there. Then a few seconds later says he’s arrived (he still hasn’t)
-once again “now I’ve arrived! Hi”-Felps, who still hasn’t arrived
-when Felps says again he’s arrived even though he technically hasn’t yet Guaxi starts robbing their chests pfft
-Felps is climbing up to the cube now
-guaxi puts back the stuff he stole and Felps arrives on top of the cube for real now
-Felps shows guaxi around the various rooms of the cube. they watch meiaum’s livestream for a moment but Felps tells guaxi to stop because there’s spoilers since he isn’t with them pfft
-Felps continues showing him around
-Felps tells guaxi the theory that the rooms here weren’t originally inside the cube and were teleported in somehow
-guaxi says he’s staying at Choke’s house now since he got expelled from the city and that they’re friends now \o/
-Felps takes guaxi up to the platform above the cube and tells him about the book that says someone entered the factory. Guaxi, who has entered the factory, starts laughing
-he reads the book out to guaxi properly
-Felps goes afk for a bit. guaxi leaves pretty much straight away
-he contacts guaxi via walkie talkie and guaxi tells him he’s in the city. He leaves the cube
-Felps asks what his name is and he tells Felps it’s “Cleopatra” (from what I can tell. Not sure if there’s a different spelling)
-Felps runs into Guh \o/ Guh shows him around his house! when they get to the bedroom Guh tells Felps he can lie down on the bed next to him if he wants and after a bit of hesitation he does
-Felps suggests he should hold an event here and Guh says he’ll plan something and make sure to send Felps an invitation \o/
-as soon as Felps leaves he asks guaxi if he’s okay via walkie talkie
-guaxi responds but is also clearly speaking to Felps while in the middle of a sentence he was already saying. Either because he was trying to respond without the person he’s talking to knowing or on accident
-Felps meets guaxi, Alice and cleber at the front of town hall. Guaxi doesn’t have his mask on, but does have an eyepatch on (apparently he has a bee trapped in there)
-guaxi asks if they take their masks off to sleep but they don’t answer
-Felps asks them to describe their faces perfectly so he can see it in his mind. Cleber’s response to this is :>
-Felps asks if they can paint over/customise the masks and Choke teleports in—quickly followed by Gabe and bagi and Wuant
-the players all walk away from Alice and Cleber
-“in a nutshell: things are happening”-Bagi
-they’re going to go fish? Which could be a code word for something else pfft
-Felps mentions that they should go get Guh
-gabe has a book with coordinates + a short message that he throws to Felps. (54:30-ish to read the text)
-bagi says she heard someone saw bia and asks who. Wuant says it was him and Choke
-Felps tries to pass on the information that quel can understand what bia says
-bagi tells them that Jota and Bia used to be friends, then Bia was accused of witchcraft
-Felps advises bagi to talk with quel about bia
-bagi says the guy from the factory must be trying to use this witchcraft too but in a different way
-wuant says it’s probably not the factory owner because he welcomed wuant very nicely
“he told me to leave the factory”-Guaxi
“I think it’s because you didn’t speak well to him”-Wuant
-bagi asks what’s in the factory. wuant says all he’s seen is Mr. Arnaldo’s room
-(Felps puts a jar of jam on the ground)
-Arnaldo told wuant that the factory is for cars and that they only manufacture engines
-wuant has a lot of faith that Arnaldo is good, while the others aren’t too sure. Choke says she wants to meet him to see and Wuant says he’ll try and talk to Arnaldo to make it happen
-the others notice the jar of jam
-Guaxinim breaks it “it’s mine now” but gives it back to Felps immediately. Felps places it back where it was
-i think they’re heading to the coordinates. guaxi and Felps race a little
-“we left everyone behind”-Guaxi
-they stop so everyone else can catch up pfft
-they find a little clearing of mud with a chest in the middle. Felps waits before walking onto the mud but guaxi doesn’t. nothing happens though, but a creeper does show up
-I think someone opens the chest? a loud sound happens and it starts flicking between night and day
-and yes the mud does drop out from underneath them pfft. they fall a long way, but it’s into water (bagi hits a block on the side though and gets downed. They manage to pick her up)
-there’s a waystone and what looks like a modded abandoned mineshaft
-i think they’ve been dropped into a dungeon of some kind. Corrupted pillagers start spawning
-Felps is breaking a lot of the spawners and getting spirit orbs \o/
-choke falls into lava and Felps tries + manages to help her (after a lot of scrambling)
-below the mineshaft is a crypt of sorts I believe? still part of the dungeon. Felps loots a little, mostly grabbing iron + a hat bag that gave him a monocle
-Felps has to go afk for a bit
-the others must do something during this because a little cutscene of a green ghost (denix I believe?) plays (Felps is still not back for this pfft)
-Felps meets up with the others easy enough. the ghost is there!! He’s following Gabe around
-Felps is invisible now due to the low light of the cave + his cloak
-they found a pillager in an “arkanya field”—which acts as a forcefield but may have other stuff going on with it? They leave it alone because guaxi is calling for help somewhere else
-the thing he’s fighting is a giant warped fly. He’s downed when they arrive and Felps picks him back up
-Felps “dies” but his totem ability activates and teleports him elsewhere close by instead of him actually dying
-the fly is killed but I think bagi is saying there’s still two left?
-Felps goes back to see the arkanya field. the pillager in there died presumably from touching the field too much…? It hurts Felps a little everytime he gets too close
-Felps instead leaves to loot a bit more. A head on a very very very long neck attacks him?
-he calls on the walkie talkie for people to come up and see but it’s still chasing him so he starts running down the stairs to where the others are pfft
-this thing is a “murmur” and has 1024 hearts of health (what the vod is named after)
-they kill it \o/
-I think Meiaum contacts them via walkie talkie? Very briefly
-It seems like they needed to kill these things to open the arkanya field—As Denix leads them back over to it and the field is gone. there’s a glowy purple chest there. Guaxi opens it and gets a sword I think
-denix via signs tells gabe the sword is for him (guaxi throws it to him but i think someone else magnets it oops)
-Felps opens another hat bag and gets a crown \o/
-there’s a hole where the chest was and they all jump down it
-i think there was a scroll in the chest that has been given to gabe now
-they are struggling to figure out what he has to do oops
-gabe I think places down a waystone so they can all get back to the city hall
-okay never mind. They go to the entrance of the place
-a brief talk, and then they climb up some water to get to the top again. while felps is trying to look in the chest guaxi hits him off pfft (he doesn’t fall far luckily)
-it turns night unnaturally
-felps briefly stops to eat irl while the others walk away. Except bagi who stays with him and says: “be careful with the dangers of the night. Felps? Be careful. it’s very dangerous”
-they’re all following Denix who is taking them further away from Valigma
-despite how far away they are from Valigma they run into Gomez?
-Felps notices there’s a little place nearby and goes to check it out while the others talk with Gomez. Guaxi goes with him
-they don’t really find anything interesting and go back to the others
-small chat with Gomez then he leaves. Denix is missing during this entire interaction I think, but they find him easy enough after
-he continues leading them somewhere
-they find a little village of sorts and felps takes their iron + bread pfft
-denix takes them to a place similar to where felps + the other people on the boat had to go to before getting to Valigma
-now denix will explain \o/ (1:37:27) basically he says it’s a ritual
-felps sends the location to Meiaum and tells him to come there. also tries to contact him via walkie talkie
-there’s some kind of little puzzle with books here. It’s a bit hard to describe especially because felps is mostly taking the opportunity to eat pfft. If you want to look at the details go to 1:38:00
-when denix says he chooses gabe Felps says goodbye to him pfft. “It was great to meet you”-F
-denix is getting gabe to use Arkanya I believe?
-felps says goodbye to him again pfft
-it works \o/ they’re put into a cutscene. it just says something in a different alphabet i believe? It looks like it’s made up of faces for about half of the letters
-gabe can use the ability again and summons the cutscene again
-bagi suggests it’s the language no one can understand, and that bira said bia kept speaking in other unknown languages
-according to denix the pact is complete
-denix says they have a connection and choke I believe says gabe’s become a father? Felps congratulates him. Denix calls him pai
-while the others are talking with Denix guaxi points out there’s water on the ground. felps does a running emote on it, then they go back to paying attention to the conversation
-felps gets a text from Meiaum saying he’s coming
-I think denix says Gabe can connect three other people to the connection? So get 3 other parents for Denix basically lol
-while they’re talking about all that felps realises guaxi and bagi have left the group and follows after them
-guaxi tells bagi about how he was kicked from the city
-bagi reacts to this information like she has experienced the same thing guaxi did or heard of someone else experiencing it
-Felps is the only one crouched during this conversation
-felps asks if bagi knows about guaxi going back to the other island and then says that the spirit who spoke to him said they shouldn’t go back there/he shouldn’t leave Guaxinim there
-choke and Wuant show up at the end of the conversation and because Felps’ last word was “lá” he pretends he was singing pfft
-they all start walking away leaving gabe and denix by themselves
-felps asks them to wait because he told meiaum to come here pfft
-Felps goes to look at a nearby village \o/ and releases a spider from a spider egg pfft. bagi goes with him \o/ they loot some chests
-guaxi and wuant show up \o/
-Felps places pancakes he found in a chest on the floor then destroys them and they disappear oops… (cake physics I suppose)
-felps finds soap in a chest and then asks where Guaxi is + calls him dirty pfft
-he finds guaxi and eats the bar of soap in front of him
“disgusting”-G
“It’s delicious!”-F
-they lose each other briefly in their looting then meet up again. I think Felps walks in on guaxi saying his name and tells him to stop (which he does not do pfft)
-felps accidentally sleeps in one of the village beds and resets his spawn
-Felps finds a hunter’s belt (same mod at the cloak + mirror) and puts it on! one of it’s abilities is giving him another slot to carry wearables. unfortunately he needs a pet to use it’s other abilities
-felps goes up the tower and messes with the windmill a little before destroying it when guaxi gets there. they both leave quickly
-he opens up his phone to a message from meiaum—something about a camera?—and resends his location
another short one! this is a lot of mining the cube + finding new rooms \o/ mostly chatting about irl stuff in between, but there’s some theorising too
recap under the cut, also reblogs are appreciated so more people can find these recaps \o/!!
(quick note that nothing I write here in quotes (unless it is books Felps reads) is verbatim + accurate translation. I will try to be as accurate as possible, but it’s more about quickly conveying vibes)
-vod continues on from the previous one
-more donation + timer pains from Meiaum
-they find a room that just has a recent photo of them digging in it. Felps takes a photo and sends it to the groupchat with him matt and Meiaum
-they find another room—a music studio with a book (6:00 if you want to read the book). they play the disc \o/ it’s some kind of custom disc
-in the room Felps finds a bowler hat that changes colours
-the room has a working piano and drumset—apparently you can connect your keyboard to this? Meiaum said he’ll try and do that sometime
-felps takes the sofa, which is also colour changing
-they talk about meiaum’s subathon while continuing to dig
-Felps found a miner’s hat with a beard (dwarven miner hat it’s called)
-still talking about the subathon
-Meiaum finds a room! This one is a graveyard. there’s four graves that all say a word on them + some ghostly whispering sounds. The words say “eu estava vendo tudo”
-felps takes a photo and sends it to the groupchat with him, matt and Meiaum
-there’s a coffin with spirit orbs in it! Felps only takes three… (you need four to get an upgrade)
-Felps wonders who the person who’s watching them is
-Felps finds a game room!
-felps wonders if this is all the rats or if they’re just one part of the picture
-felps tries to dig specifically to find a room, but goes back to digging normally before too long
-matt raids Meiaum so they talk a little about what they’re doing/what they’ve found, and then keep talking about the subathon
-Meiaum finds a room with perry the platypus \o/ the room is probably supposed to be the secret base
-felps takes a photo and sends it to the groupchat with him matt and Meiaum
-felps wonders if the rooms didn’t originally exist in the block but were instead transported there. He mostly cites the fact that in Perry’s room there’s a door to nowhere but stone
-Meiaum wonders if the rooms belong to them and they just don’t remember—specifically the rooms, not the pictures of them
-from a picture frame in Perry’s room, felps gets a zombie mask. there was also a spyglass in a picture frame next to it which he gives to Meiaum
-Meiaum is still being tormented by people sending him money to make the timer go up by a lot pfft
-AuAu shows up again \o/ he gives them steak!
-they show AuAu some of the rooms around the cube
-felps realises there’s a small square platform above the cube
-when he gets underneath it he hears a noise and starts digging down to find it (looking for an elevator up to the platform)
-they find a room with a giant frog named Pepe (and no elevator)
-they tower up to try and get to the platform. Felps doesn’t have enough blocks
-Meiaum gets up and throws Felps some blocks one by one
-they find a floating book and quill on a pedestal of some kind
-the book says: “alguém já teve acesso a Fábrica. Vocês ainda tem muito a explorar em Valigma. Todo canto guarda um secreto.”
-there is now a working elevator
-Meiaum wonders if they should go to the factory
-Felps thinks Guaxinim is the person who’s entered the factory that the book is referring to, since Guaxinim mentioned he had
-they get back down to see a lot of monsters have spawned oops
-Meiaum is downed and felps goes to revive him (he can’t see Meiaum at first he just hears him calling for help pfft)
-i think AuAu goes around killing most of the monsters. Felps gets a new hat called “poggers”
-AuAu calls the pictures of irl felps and irl Meiaum pretty
-they show AuAu the screen that’s streaming meiaum’s live. Felps tells him they’re being watched, and AuAu is scared (they are too)
-they take AuAu to the gorilla room and he feeds it bananas
-felps hears fire and starts looking for the next room
-they find a bakery \o/
-Meiaum didn’t break his tower up to the platform so Felps breaks it for him
-to explain his pain with the timer in arkanis, Meiaum is saying he has allergies
-AuAu leaves to go sleep
-for a while now Felps has been using his hand to mine the blocks since he has the claw that lets him mine blocks quickly (I think it’s as efficient as stone tools)
-Felps sees invisibility particles and hears a villager. He manages to click on them and realises the baker turned him invisible
-Meiaum suggests joining a group call again, but Felps says he’s going to leave for today
-Meiaum confirms he won’t break anything without Felps. they say goodbye to each other and head to their houses \o/
-as soon as Felps gets down he runs into two creepers (that do explode. luckily he was okay pfft)
-Felps sleeps through the night, then takes stock of his inventory a little
-he looks through meiaum’s chest in the base but doesn’t take anything
the recap here is quite short! mostly just a lot of mining of the cube + irl sorts of discussions. they find a lot of things \o/!!
recap under the cut, also reblogs are appreciated so more people can find these recaps \o/!!
(quick note that nothing I write here in quotes is verbatim + accurate translation. I will try to be as accurate as possible, but it’s more about quickly conveying vibes)
-this vod continues on from vod 11 \o/
-“hey matt. The moon looks strange. What did you do.”-Meiaum (it’s just a new moon)
-Felps kills a zombie and knocks it off the cube. Then jumps off after it to get the loot bag pfft. it gives him crystal horns which he puts on!!
-he goes back up to the cube to mine and they find a small room that only has a photo of Felps in it (the one he puts on his vod thumbnails)
-“this is lore, I’m certain”-Felps
“do you think this is the mayor without a mask? or is it the other (meiaum’s photo)?”-F
“prefeito jelps”-M
-felps asks if the cube was always here or if it appeared, and Meiaum said it appeared. felps says it doesn’t make sense
“you have horns”-M
“Yes. They shine”-F
“Beautiful”
-felps gets some creepers that spawned on the cube to blow up and destroy some blocks
-finally they go back to talking in a group while mining pfft
-they talk about Twitter a bit, which leads to talking about meiaum’s subathon timer. felps googles how many hours 5 billion minutes would be to see how long Meiaum would have to stay if he was donated 5 billion dollars (at least 9000 years)
-they talk about liking bluesky and seeing the Felps updates blog + the fanart + Meiaum updates blog
-some kind of lore is happening tomorrow morning according to Meiaum?
-they spend a bit of time talking about chats \o/ (Felps’ chat for example, but others too)
-Felps is talking about the paradox of the Time Machine
-felps and Meiaum get distracted from mining because they hear a noise. they start digging to try and find the source of it
-after a lot of digging around they find a small house with a gorilla in it (appears to be two rooms—a bedroom and a main room)
-felps takes a photo of the gorilla and sends it to the groupchat with him matt and Meiaum
-felps wonders if this is the gorilla’s house or if someone else lives here and takes care of the gorilla. Meiaum suggests maybe someone lived here the gorilla killed them
-Felps is confused as to how the gorilla even got here because there’s no path to the house + it doesn’t even have a door
-felps irl leaves to go get food. Meiaum continues mining + tries out some shaders. felps has towered up near the corner of the cube so you can see Meiaum moving around
-the video cuts here to when Felps is back.
“I broke five plates”-F
“I heard!”-M
-Felps finds another room \o/ it has a gaming chair + desk. with a screen that’s playing Felps’ livestream I believe? Meiaum broke the screen accidentally so they didn’t really get to see what was on it
-there are holes in the walls and floors…? Ant nests
-the screen is put back by an admin. it is playing Felps’ livestream \o/ I think this cube wants to give akfelps and akmeiaum an existential crisis
-the screen is now playing meiaum’s live
-like with the pictures, they say they don’t know the stream versions of themselves
-felps calls the person streaming (Meiaum) um menininho and Meiaum disagrees pfft
-Meiaum stays staring at the screen for fun visual effects (stream in stream in stream in stream, etc)
-“it’s worth noting this room was full of ants”-F
-Meiaum sounds/acts like he’s in physical pain when he gets high amounts donated and added to the timer. every time this happens Felps runs over to the screen to watch his live
-“i can do something funny to Meiaum if you give me permission”-a felps chat member—And they sent Meiaum $1000
-felps found a room with nothing
-just when Meiaum recovers from the $1000 someone sends $600 bringing the timer up to 400 hours
-“don’t support your streamer”-M
-Felps found another room—this time it’s an aquarium. there’s a shark with a name \o/ thúbaraum
-vod ends with Meiaum suffering. It continues on in the next vod
lots happened in this vod!! Half of it group lore and theorising*, half of it finally starting to break the cube with Meiaum
*for a little bit of contextualisation: this is the one with the ghost boats + bia teleporting them all into the lake
recap under the cut \o/!!
-continues on from vod 10
-Matt summarises the endless night mystery for Meiaum
-Felps asks if the others have seen Mike because he hasn’t since the first day
-Matt says that if they go to pac and tell him Mike’s cursed pac probably won’t trust them over Mike pfft so they’ll need to properly think about their approach
-Matt hasn’t met Quel. Felps hasn’t met AuAu, but Meiaum and Matt have
-Meiaum tells Matt what he told Felps about the Quel house + book (from end of last vod)
-Matt mentions the voice they heard and Felps repeats that he thinks they’re constantly being listened in on
-connecting the theories of Matt thinking the masks will brainwash them + Meiaum and Felps thinking quel’s mask has something to do with her not remembering stuff
-the ancient language is mentioned
-basically this whole conversation is them just trying to connect up everything they have found out so far into some kind of consistent theory
-connecting Jota telling Matt the specialists have potential + the book about quel mentioning “I thought she had potential”
-their theorising is cut off as a group of people (Quel, Wuant and Alice) walk by
-Felps and Matt watch as the others try to kill a baby zombie
-Felps introduces quel and matt “this is who was dealing with that business (the endless night) this is the demon, matt”
“now that i see you I’m less scared”-Q
“You were scared of me?” -M
“No, no of the sun turning to the moon”-Q
-Felps likes to use his double jump to climb the streetlamps
-Wuant tells them that Jota saw Quel and got sad. Quel says he was scared
-matt takes them (specifically Quel but the others can + do join) to the library* to try and jog quel’s memory (*to the place with the ancient language code books)
-Quel says that whoever wrote the books uses masculine pronouns so they go back to their theory that Jota was the one who wrote them
-Felps mentions that he’s already translated all the books and summarises what they said—specifically the fact they didn’t say much at all and were just tests of the languages
-also someone has taken one of the books
-they move to outside
-Felps messes around with his teleportation mirror. Matt asks him to take it out again and then screams a little like he’s scared to see himself in it. “ah, because you’re ugly I get it”-F
-Meiaum asks to talk with quel for a moment and the two of them leave. Alice leaves as well
-Wuant tells Matt and Felps that Jota said the mask Quel wears belongs to Bia/is Bia’s*
-matt doesn’t know much about Bia so they catch him up on her
-*they theorise about what that all could mean
-matt suggests they all meet up at the bar as like… a get together thing. and during that they try to get more out of Bira about the situation since he talked fairly freely about Bia earlier
-based on the fact Jota said something about how “there’s a doctor here but they don’t know who they are yet” Felps thinks they can be specialists in stuff they’re not aware of yet. + that maybe Jota wants to turn them into specialists in something—as in maybe they put on a mask and then become a role in the city
-matt says if quel is immune to the mask’s effects (they currently think the masks have brainwashing effects) it wouldn’t make sense for her to lose her memory. + mentions that the question is: did the mask take her memory, or did they (Jota + co.) take her memory
-Felps reiterates his theory that maybe there’s some way to jog her memory and matt suggests music
-they think Quel is maybe on their side/here to help them. “If the mayor is scared that’s good”-F
-matt says she probably wants to find out what happened to her too, and Wuant says that Jota said he’d help. Matt and Felps both think he was just saying that and that he won’t actually try to help
-Felps goes to look at the gallery while matt catches Wuant up on some other stuff that he’s already told Felps
-chatting a little with Wuant and Matt and then they notice a boat moving close to them with seemingly no one actually rowing it (it’s moving like it’s being pushed somehow)
-“the spirits communicate in many ways, it’s getting difficult”-M
-apparently when they get in the boat it starts rowing properly, but they are not actually rowing it
-they find another boat
-apparently Meiaum stole a book of Matt’s? No time to focus on this as Meiaum and quel run into view and when Felps goes to beckon them over Meiaum is just yelling “run”
“do you want to go to a place that’s more secure?”-Matt
“Here here let’s go here (moves a few blocks to the side) okay this is good”-F
“No I’m not feeling it here let’s go here (moves a few more blocks to the side) okay good”-Meiaum
-another boat
-Meiaum gets in the boat and it starts rowing and when Felps asks if it’s him driving Meiaum answers no
-Meiaum is struck by some kind of thought and then runs off alone
-Quel freaks out a little about him being alone and starts following him so they all do
-“what happened to you guys that made you run?”-F
-they catch up to Meiaum and tell him he shouldn’t be alone, but all of them (except quel) get distracted by creepers so they lose him a little again—still can see where he is though, just out of earshot
-another boat appears
-“it’s the ghost of the boat”-Q
-when Felps gets in the boat it doesn’t start moving by itself though
-okay never mind. when he leaves the boat he is teleported somewhere else. The boat went with him (I guess to other people it might’ve looked like he rowed away?)
-matt checks in with him via walkie talkie since he just disappeared pfft
-he gets in the boat again to see where he’s taken (/is hoping he’s taken back to the others?). when he leaves the boat again he hasn’t moved this time though
-“am I going to another place? Or is here the place?”-F
-said place appears to be a small cave with water in it (timestamp 30:00 if you want to see). he explores it a little, but doesn’t find anything of interest
-the others find him and they explore the cave a little
-another boat (this one is spinning)
-theorising about what the boat is trying to take them to
-apparently there was a ghost following them—or specifically Quel?
-matt asks if maybe the ghosts could be friends of hers from before that died (Felps doesn’t hear the rest of this conversation)
-Meiaum explains that there was a ghost shouting at them to leave and that’s why they were running
-Felps suggests maybe the ghost telling them to leave is the same as the voice that told them they had a good theory (Arnaldo)
-Felps goes back to matt and quel to overhear matt asking to exchange numbers. remembering his own struggle with that he wishes matt luck pfft (it goes better because it’s Quel sharing her number instead of trying to put in matt’s)
-while the others were elsewhere a boat spawned on Quel’s head. matt thinks the ghosts are there to help her
-they leave Quel in the cave then Felps beckons them all to try and spy on her a bit
-they give up on spying when they can’t see her, but they do wonder what she’s doing in there
-they lose track of her name and wonder if she disappeared somehow/how she left
-Felps also realises Matt is no longer with them and is more panicked about that. they try to find him and fail
-they did disappear—felps is also teleported away \o/ he ends up with Quel and Matt in some black with purple accents square room?
-“I think it went wrong guys”-Felps one second before disappearing
-apparently Bia appeared in the room
-i think every other player online is also teleported into the room at once
-“it’s a partyyy”-Meiaum
-… they are all then teleported into the lake that they’re not supposed to go into because it’s too dirty
-also during this there’s been some lightning sounds despite no raining. after they are teleported to the lake the sky starts blinking between night and day for a bit before landing on night
-“it’s not me, it’s not me”-Matt
-the others haven’t seen Bia but Matt confirms she wears a mask similar to Quel’s
-someone goes to get Alice accidentally so they all leave
-okay matt is saying he can’t understand bia but that quel can—which she agrees with. Felps suggests it because she has part of a mask similar to bia’s on
-quel says bia was saying something about her being a disappointment
-quel says that bia gave her a present (and accidentally throws a pickaxe oops)
-a lot of theorising here
-“I think she (bia) likes Matt”-Q and then they all take that as in a crush pfft
-they leave Matt and Quel to deal with the things bia gave Quel. Meiaum and Felps leave together
“what the fuck was that”-M
“I don’t know”-F
-they go back to the other group of people and get distracted with Coreano being almost-invisible
-Meiaum and Felps leave to go to the cube
-… Meiaum lost the base and has been making another house pfft. they go here so he can organise some things before starting to dig
“you have ten hamburgers”-F
“I got them from Cleber. It’s good to make friends with him”-M
-Felps clears up his inventory and throws a bunch of stuff he doesn’t want into meiaum’s house pfft
-matt talks to them very briefly via walkie talkie. seems like he is quietly updating them about what him and quel are doing but they’re talking a little too quietly for me to tell exactly
-arriving at the cube Felps sets up a crafting + furnace station and starts smelting iron
-Felps and Meiaum both confirm that they don’t want to use the digging method that gets rid of a lot of stone at once and that they’re prefer to do the “Felps and Meiaum content” method (one block at a time)
-they start mining the cube \o/!!
-Felps wonders if there’ll be anything in the cube and Meiaum says he doesn’t think so—that it’s just a cube. they’ll be upset if they don’t earn money for doing this pfft
-“every time we get an answer 15 more questions comes up”-F
-while they mine they talk a little about the situations they have found themselves in (lore + digging the cube). Matt updates them on what is happening with him and Quel
-they make a group chat with the three of them called “grupo da pelada”. Matt sends some photos
-apparently Quel did the thing she was supposed to do wrong and they’re softblocked a little
-Felps remembers he can dig with his hand because of the claws he picked up in the modded abandoned mineshaft. He sticks with using the iron pickaxe because it’s faster
-AuAu appears \o/ Felps is wary until he find out that this is AuAu
-AuAu gives them 6 diamonds each!!
“AuAu for mayor”-F
“you guys are funny”-AuAu
-Felps gives AuAu a hug, and AuAu helps them dig \o/
-matt tries to contact them again but the audio is all distorted
-AuAu leaves, and Matt’s walkie talkie audio is still distorted. felps can hear Meiaum okay, but Meiaum can’t hear either of them well. throughout all of this they are still mining the cube
-Felps hits Meiaum off the cube (thank god they placed it above water pfft). Felps thinks Meiaum died and jumps off after him—they find AuAu underwater under the cube, but say goodbye to him again
-Meiaum puts a block where the water source that they use to get up is (probably in an attempt to stop Felps from being able to get up) but he uses a stair so it just waterlogs. felps makes fun of him a little bit for failing pfft
-while digging Felps falls into a small room with blue and green (tazercraft) sofas \o/ this one just has the two sofas + a lantern. Meiaum takes the sofas for his house I think
-they’re wondering if maybe the cube came from somewhere else. as in: it was in one area and then was teleported to here
-Felps creates a voice chat group so they can easily talk to each other while mining. “but if someone arrives we have to leave the group”-F
-there are small crabs scattered around the top of the cube
-they’re talking about how certain animals can regrow limbs. Felps brings up Theseus’ ship
-while explaining what Theseus’ ship is, a picture of a cat appears. They leave the group to try and talk to it
-not sure if maybe one of them scrolled to the walkie talkie accidentally, but Matt asks them if they’re okay pretty much right after it appears pfft
-the cat doesn’t speak to them but it does get bigger \o/ they are very wary of the cat
-it keeps changing size. they’ve paused mining to see this
-it gets very tall + skinny and starts cloning itself (4 of them) before going back to just one
-“are you looking for the rats?”-F + M
-it clones itself again to circle them + gets closer to box them in
-it lets them go free and goes back to being one
-they start meowing to try and communicate
-(during this Matt says the code word for danger)
-it transfers to being on the ground, gets very big, moves around, then leaves
-“I think he was just taking a look”-F
-they chat with Matt again briefly
-they continue mining and continue their conversation about Theseus’ boat as if they never stopped it. they both think it’s the same boat
-matt arrives \o/
-they try to explain the cat to Matt and then the cat appears again to examine him
-they tell him to talk to the cat via meowing
-the cat clones itself and surrounds matt
-matt passes \o/
-matt tells them what he was doing with quel
-Jota wants to take the mask off of her. He doesn’t like her, and she doesn’t like him but she doesn’t know why exactly
-they think that quel was probably Bia’s apprentice
-Felps tells matt to ask Guaxinim about Bia because apparently Guaxinim knows a little more about her
-Meiaum asks why Quel can’t take her mask off because when he’s asked other Valigma citizens they’ve said that they can take their masks off
-matt wonders if bia is a ghost and Felps suggests she’s maybe just far away + using magic to appear to them
-they all agree that Quel should keep her mask on because being able to talk to Bia could get them more answers
-“it would be very bad for us to lose information”-F
-matt says he scared of what Guaxinim wants to do here? Felps also says his scared + explains it (This feels kind of important to get the tone of conversation right: 1:44:50) I think basically they’re worried about what he’ll do to get answers—putting on a mask for example
“you wouldn’t put one on right?”-Matt to Felps
“I would”-Meiaum
-Meiaum is arguing that it could be important for them to know what happens when you put on a mask, but Matt and Felps are worried about the consequences—what if they can’t go back to normal afterwards?
-Felps thinks it’s better to try and talk to Quel about what it’s like before any of them try putting on a mask. essentially just try to use all their options first and that it should be the last thing that do
-Meiaum brings up Fe and Felps lags for a bit and misses whatever he says. he gets back to matt saying he knows very little about Fe
-Meiaum tells Matt about the conversation he overheard with Jota + Fe (the thing about him having a son + not remembering anything)
-Matt says the citizens all remember things before they put on the mask and Felps suggests that maybe they’re implanted memories
-Felps finds another hidden room—a rat house made of cheese
-Meiaum tells them that they’re all wearing masks—social masks (Felps leaves)
-they keep mining and decide to mine around the house
-they about the citizens (Alice + Gomez)
-they tell Meiaum about the danger code
-Matt thinks maybe the cube was specifically meant as a distraction for Felps and Meiaum so they won’t try to solve mysteries (aka things Jota might not want discovered)
-they disagree and say this is a very important task and Matt apologises for trivialising it
-Felps shows Matt the extremely broken tools Alice gave them pfft
-matt leaves to go do something else and they promise to tell each other via walkie talkie if anything happens
-Meiaum says he trusts cleber
-and then adds on that Cleber took him to his house + changed his clothes in front of him…? “Not in that way”-M
-felps is implying some things about their relationship and teasing Meiaum
-during this he falls into another little room that just has a picture of irl Meiaum in it
“what is this????”-M
“I’m the one who should be asking you that”-F
“it’s not even me”-M
“Who is this?”-F
“I don’t know”-M
-Felps takes a photo and sends it to the groupchat with him, Meiaum and matt
for a quick summary about this vod: chatting with quel + starting to tackle the cube project with Meiaum \o/ as well as some theorising as they go along
(quick reminder that everything in quotes—unless it was written in a book that felps reads—is not a verbatim transcript or translation. I try to be as accurate as possible, but I’m just doing it quickly so please don’t take it as 100% accurate)
full recap under the cut \o/
-woke up! Smelting some of the gold + iron he got as well as upgrading and organising his backpacks
-(Felps has very organised backpacks/inventory/chests)
-he notices himaru and quel’s name tags nearby and crouches so they won’t find him + the base
-he tries to listen in on them but can’t get close enough without giving away where he is (he suggests they should have an emergency exit pfft)
-himaru and quel leave without noticing him and he decides to grab his things and leave
-he starts whistling “casually” as he walks away and runs into quel (she has a base nearby)
-He circles a creeper hole or something for a bit and continues to whistle ignoring that she’s said hi. in general just continues to walk (around her base) and whistle without acknowledging her even though she’s trying to get his attention a little
-finally says hello like he’s just noticed her
-they talk a little—very casual stuff
“you’re living here?”-F
“Temporarily. I stole it”-Q
“Ah okay—it’s easier right?”-F (then I think he continues on to say: “I know what it’s like—no actually I don’t know what it’s like, I don’t know what it’s like”)
-Felps mentions the fact they met before and now they’re talking about how the island is a little scary (quel doesn’t know some of the examples Felps is talking about and asks him to explain pfft. Although she has met some rats)
-Felps offers to take her to the cube and she accepts
-while they walk Felps mentions they also need to find Meiaum
-they run into Meiaum, Choke, Cleber and Gomez)
-meiaum and quel go off to talk together and Felps waits
-he walks up to himaru and Alice talking neaby. himaru says he needs to show Felps something—which is a skateboard pfft
-Himaru points out that Felps and Alice have the same ears \o/ he takes a photo of them \o/!! (The image on the vod thumbnail)
-they talk a bit about being busy + the renovations in the city
-Alice starts using signs to talk when Felps confirms he still can’t read the bubbles
-himaru says he was hearing voices and then tells Felps he’ll tell him about it later
-choke and cleber join them
-I think cleber apologises for forgetting that Felps can’t read the bubbles
-felps shows off his magic cloak thing and cleber takes a photo for him
-choke distracts them with skateboarding skills
-Felps suggests choke and himaru race \o/!!
-“I’m going to be the hot girl who does the countdown”-F
-a bit more chatting and then Felps leaves to look for Meiaum
-he finds Meiaum and quel easily enough right at the end of their conversation and takes them both to the cube
-Felps stops halfway through to ask if Meiaum first saw the cube in a vision like he did. Meiaum did not have a vision of the cube
-just before they get there: “Wait—who are you?”-Meiaum to quel. Despite having a conversation before this they just now introduce themselves and talk briefly about how they both ended up at Valigma
-apparently Jota took Meiaum to the cube and just told him that it’s something for him and Felps and they have to resolve it pfft
-Felps shows Meiaum the sign and then they realise quel didn’t follow them up
-while Meiaum is looking down trying to see her Felps hits him off the cube
-quel comes into render distance again and immediately dies… she drowned in the water stream that takes you up to the cube
-Meiaum gets up and immediately hits Felps off in revenge
-Felps and Meiaum talk about quel—her mask + the theory about her being bia but not remembering
-Meiaum changes the subject and now they’re talking about trying to get equipment from Jota or Alice so they can break the cube
-before they do this Meiaum irl goes to get food and Felps waits for him. Quel still hasn’t come to get her items and Felps is worried they’ll disappear
-they leave the cube and while running from monsters Felps loses Meiaum, but finds quel (and Alice) and tells her to get her items
-quel leaves to get her items and Felps asks Alice for another phone because his is gone
-Felps goes back to the cube to try and find Meiaum and complains about the fact Meiaum isn’t looking at his phone. probably unrelated but as he’s doing this the sky unnaturally turns to sunset
-Felps recalls the situation with Matt from the previous vod—how it was night until they got rid of that thing
-he finds quel at the cube \o/
-Felps tells quel a bit about the cube (the things he knows about it at least)
-quel says she doesn’t like the mayor and Felps agrees there’s something (implied: weird/bad) about him
-Felps tells her to be careful and keep an eye + ear out for things
-Felps notices that the moon isn’t moving and is stuck at midnight. Lightning strikes when he talks about this with quel and he immediately changes conversation tracks away from stuff like that and back to mundane stuff (needing to find Meiaum)
-Meiaum messages Felps telling him he talked to Alice and she isn’t going to give them any equipment—Felps thinks it’s because Jota didn’t tell her about the cube and tells Meiaum to come to the city hall
-Felps tries to exchange numbers with quel but she is struggling to put his number in correctly (65 becomes 6x5, etc)
-she gets his number in correctly as Alice and Meiaum appear then leaves
-Felps tries asking for equipment to break the cube again, mentioning it’s a mission from the mayor and (lying) that he promised to give them incredibly valuable things
-Felps (whispering) points out the night being stuck at midnight to Alice and Meiaum
-they start blaming Matt and saying it’s his fault pfft (since it’s connected to him). Meiaum says they (Matt + others maybe?) are going to resolve it though
-Alice says she’ll look for equipment for them. they chat a bit while they’re waiting + the day comes back
-Meiaum asks about quel again then says he needs to tell Felps something but Wuant and Gomez appear so he doesn’t
-Alice comes back and gives them 3 so so so close to broken diamond pickaxes
-quel joins them again and says that bira disappeared—that she went to the bar and he wasn’t there—but Felps says it was because he has back pain (Cleber had already mentioned to Felps he wouldn’t be at the bar because of this)
-felps also tells her that the night being stuck is due to Matt and that Matt can explain it better
-Meiaum says he needs to talk to quel but he needs to talk to Felps first pfft and asks her to wait for them to talk
-Meiaum is talking to Felps about quel—they go to the house she first appeared at. Meiaum was apparently there before anyone else and took what was in the chest—a book that he reads out to Felps (1:25:00)
-Felps tells Meiaum about Guaxi going to the other island + finding the captain + the entity that spoke to felps
-Felps doesn’t remember anything really about the boat. he doesn’t remember what happened before (I’m assuming he means just before the boat, not that he doesn’t remember anything at all). He just remembers going to the room with the captain and then they crashed. he doesn’t remember why he went there or what exactly happened which is why he wants to talk to the captain (except he doesn’t want to go to the island where the captain is staying because the entity told him not to)
-Meiaum also had someone talking to him but he isn’t sure who it was
-they’re wondering if there’s some way they can jog Quel’s memory
-Felps brings up the fact he had a vision of the cube and suggests maybe there’s things here that can manipulate their memories, but he isn’t sure
-Meiaum brings up the conversation he overheard with Fe and Jota—about how Fe apparently has a kid he doesn’t remember having and how maybe this is Quel?
-they decide to talk to her and ask her about her family, then go to the cube
-Felps realises Matt sent him a message about how he went to some coordinates and found something important
-they go to Julia’s store while they wait for Matt to give more information. He contacts them via walkie talkie and recaps the endless night situation + an update \o/
-this is the information about the book telling Matt that Mike is a werewolf
“I only interacted once with Mike, he doesn’t trust me”-Matt
“Me too, me too”-F (maybe on the interacting once, more than the not trusting him?)
-Matt is going to come to Julia’s store and Felps updates Meiaum
-they try looking for garlic to repel a werewolf…
-there’s no garlic, but there is silver \o/
-Matt appears right at the end of this vod, next one continues on from here
recap for this vod! At the time of first posting I haven’t posted vod 8’s yet, but I have already written up some of vod 8’s recap so some things reference that. nothing majorly important though—you can understand without
as it’s quite long I’ll put it under the cut \o/
-continues on from vod 8
-felps continues to mine to try and find stuff
-not learning from the centipede, Felps hears a strange noise and starts digging towards it. it was sculk this time!
-walkie talkies with guaxi. guaxi explains why he’s kicked out of the city (the signs + the book telling him to leave + he knows too much)
-felps mentions he saw another ghost and then explains what happened to him (the sign with the '-' face appearing while he was mining)
-guaxi was trying to talk to bagi but his phone wasn’t working? “I would call. I would realise you weren’t there”- felps (not verbatim translation)
-he tells guaxi about ratinho-o-o
-they share photos of their experiences
-they talk more about guaxi being kicked out of the city and Felps suggests he talks to Alice
-felps continues mining
-felps finds the Kirby hat \o/!! And finds diamonds after!!
-guaxi is going back to the city and says he’ll yell on the walkie talkie if he runs into trouble. Their code word for danger is “pepino”
-during this time while Felps is mining, guaxi and felps both say the code word as a joke
-felps finds a cave and runs around looking for diamond. he mostly avoids attacking monsters (except for skeletons that shoot at him + sometimes the crabs) and instead prefers to run away from them
-he tries to contact guaxi during this time and guaxi doesn’t respond for a bit, but he does eventually respond and tells Felps that he took a mask from a monster and is undercover in the city. Felps tells him to be careful
-guaxi says the code word for real this time, but doesn’t seem to be in immediate danger
-immediately after this Felps almost accidentally blows up his walkie talkie… he opened a trapped chest and threw it in a panic
“I’m pretending that I’m crazy”-G
“You don’t need to pretend”-F
“What?”
“You don’t need to pretend”
“I don’t understand”
-felps changes the topic
-he finds a modded abandoned mineshaft and explores that, meanwhile guaxi is trying to find Matt
-felps finds a magic robe + digging claws!! + a magic mirror!! The magic robe makes him invisible in the dark (optifine torchlight not included) + the digging claws mean he can break stone with his hands (these are outfits he wears). the magic mirror teleports you to your respawn point
-felps calls the warden “Wagner”
-continues caving, but runs into a tower as part of the same mineshaft mod that takes him all the way back to the surface \o/
-continues exploring the mineshaft
-he finds a plant hat which he keeps on for a bit
-guaxi calls out the code word again, but seems okay…?
-after more caving and looking for diamonds Felps uses the mirror to go back to his respawn point (a random bed in the middle of nowhere, but at least it’s not a cave)
-felps is heading back to Valigma and realises he doesn’t disappear in the moonlight, only full darkness
-felps is back in town (guaxi is still looking for Matt) and now he is being hit by someone/something he can’t see (only for half a heart or so though)
-he is hiding behind Julia now. and is now trapped in the store? He tells Guaxi to come to him
a book is thrown by an invisible force that reads “eles te contaram né FELPS….” | “they told you right FELPS….”
“What?”
thrown another book: “seus dois amigos, voltaram… Voltaram pra lá…”
“Ah, no…? ...I think lying to you won’t change anything right? You know everything” (not verbatim translation)
Next book: “exatamente!”
(I’m not translating the rest of this to this detail—timestamp 1:07:00 should get you there for this conversation. just know Felps is asking questions. I’ll summarise a bit, but best to watch for yourself)
-the invisible force starts using signs to communicate (maybe to not crowd Felps’ inventory—he was saving the books he was thrown though)
-Guaxinim shows up but he can’t get in so he’s just looking at Felps through a gap in the store
-the invisible force asks if Felps can trust them and he says he doesn’t know
-the invisible force is probably the same as the one that kicked guaxi out of the city? They want Felps to leave “like [them]”. They tried to leave, but didn’t leave in time and are now stuck here
“Don’t you think it’s strange that only you new ones who arrived here see these things?”-IF
“Of course I find it strange!!!”-F
-he continues on to say that his curiosity is stronger and that of course he could leave but he wants to know what’s going on
-the invisible force lets him leave the store and tells him to be careful and think about things
-silly thing: when the walls blocking the doors leave a firefly flies into the building and Felps treats it like it is the invisible force
-felps meets up with guaxi who was still outside the building to talk about what just happened
-briefly gets distracted by the fact his waypoints give Guaxi’s skull mask eyes pfft
-Matt joins them \o/ they currently are keeping up pretenses that guaxi is a new arrival to the city and not actually Guaxinim. “he has nothing to do with Guaxinim”. before Matt can really respond to this they reveal the truth that this is Guaxinim pfft
-they tell Matt about guaxi being on the run. Felps was about to mention it then checks with guaxi to see if he can, then tells Matt
-(guaxi and felps have matching Kirby hats on. important)
-guaxi catches Matt up on his adventures (going to the factory + all the events leading up to him being kicked out of the city)
-Throughout this entire meeting because it is night they are constantly being attacked by monsters. They try to go somewhere inside but are being chased by monsters still
-they hide out in Alice’s house for a moment, but guaxi doesn’t want to speak there. instead they are going to the “pedra do Felps” aka the cube. nevermind—they are going to a player-built house. as they go Felps is explaining the cube
-okay they reach this house and finally guaxi is explaining things to Matt
-ratinho-o-o appears, interrupting them
-gabe also appears (it’s his house they’re at I think pfft)
-another rat
-someone with a mask in the pool? Disappears before anyone can get a good look
-wuant teleports in
-pink sign rat points out that the night seems to never end (I think)
-Matt explains that he found a book with coordinates that led him to a construction. Music started playing and he found a chest with 9 buckets of blood in an L shape
-another rat (3 now)
-they are going to the coordinates Matt was talking about
-“man where will Matt take us? I don’t trust him very much”- Guaxinim (not verbatim translation). this was potentially said in earshot of Matt, but was said to Felps
-Matt isn’t sure if he should be taking them but is anyway
-the rats gave them bread and cheese
“I don’t think he knows where he’s going.”-F
“Oh hey—respect me, Felps”-M
-they arrive at the coordinates and Felps figures out what the song is (I think)
-they have to destroy everything and leave no trace, but Matt wants to keep the chest to see if the letter keeps changing (it’s O this time)
-Matt says every time he’s talked with spirits it’s been with a red candle, felps says he spoke with a spirit but not with candles
-they run off elsewhere chasing something that was seen in the sky? It becomes day while they do this. maybe the thing Matt was sent to created an unnatural night so when they destroyed it things went back to normal?
-Matt thinks the spirit he was talking to is someone who died at the accident
-Matt explains his theory about the city + what happened to it + the masks (1:37:00)
-some scary distorted disembodied voice starts talking to them?? it just says one thing then Matt goes back to finishing his theory
-“they’re listening to everything all the time”-Felps
-Guaxinim has heard this voice before in the factory I believe
-felps takes a photo of Matt
-gabe says the voice’s (factory owner) name is Arnaldo and that he deals with the bank and the factory… I think
-they continue theorising and talking about things along these lines (Matt’s theory + factory owner)
-(Felps starts looking at backpack upgrades during this pfft)
-wuant doesn’t trust the rats, Felps does—mentions they gave him cheese
“It could be a bribe”-W
“I accept”-F
-Guaxinim also trusts them purely because they don’t wear masks lol
-basically Matt is saying not to put on the masks if they’re offered and guaxi says something about if he puts one on they need to help him take it off or something. Guaxi essentially wants to use himself as an experiment on what the masks do because he’s already been kicked out of the city
-rats come back \o/
-more talking and such about the important stuff, but mostly closing it off. they all start going somewhere
-Matt and Felps stop to talk about the cube (in the rats’ accent). this does mean they lose track of the others, but they find them again easy enough
-Felps is busy trying to figure out how a magic item works (blazing flask) while the others plan in the background
-they all go their separate ways, and then Felps runs into Matt and wuant again. At Matt’s prompting, Felps explains why the city hall is closed
“were the people who set fire to it specialists?”-M
“No I’ve never heard of anyone who set fire to the hall. I’ve never heard of anyone who set fire to it by pressing a button and dropping a lantern”-F (who definitely did drop a lantern and start a fire)
-Matt and Felps finally exchange numbers
-wuant leaves and Matt sends a photo of Quel to Felps asking if he knows who it is.
-felps explains what he knows about quel, but mentions that guaxi knows more because he was there longer
-they say goodbye to each other but Felps keeps watching Matt from a distance a little. Felps listens in to Matt and Guaxi talking through the walkie talkies briefly—they don’t say much
-felps continues to try and figure out how the blazing flask works
-matt guaxi and Felps talk a little via walkie talkies
“sometimes I feel useless”-M
Neither say anything for a second then guaxi says “no, no” kind of unconvincingly…? pfft
-they tell Matt the danger code word
-felps figures out how the blazing flask works \o/
-felps finally puts down a bed in his base, resets his spawn, and logs off for the day
