Happy birthday Technoblade. We all miss you a lot, I wish I was as talented as other people so I could post some cool art with this but it felt wrong not to say anything especially for how much you have done for me and your whole community. Fly high king.

[qsmpheadcannons]

Congrats Ph1lza Minecraft on 5 years!

So we all know Wilbur isn’t apart of qsmp anymore (for good reason but that’s not the point rn) and so Talulah is now Philza’s daughter permanently.

But how is this working canonically? Like are we erasing Wilbur’s lore from the qsmp completely, which probably wouldn’t be too big a difference since he didn’t do much anyway. However this would affect Talulah quite a bit-

So is Talulah’s lore changed as well and in what way? Like is she erased from existence prior to July when it was official (to the audience) that she had been adopted?

Personally I’ve been imagining it that she was a foster care child for the entirety of the time Phil was ‘baby sitting her’ bc it keeps the importance and emotional significance to the moment when Phil tells her that he always thought of her as his daughter.

Other things I’ve been considering;

Talulah is still Philza’s grand-daughter and not direct daughter (biologically), but instead of Wilbur (who we don’t like anymore), it was Techno who fathered her, but she had run away before custody could be transferred to Phil, causing a sort of mass search explaining why she wasn’t with Phil from day one.

Or Talulah is 100% Phil’s daughter no questions asked, she always was. Wilbur never existed period. End of story. This is kinda contradictory to today’s Talulah lore tho. (Today being April 26, 2024) plus it also eliminates all emotional lore moments between her and Phil. This is more for the extra angry ex-fans who don’t really want to acknowledge his existence anymore, which I understand, it’s a shity situation caused by his own shity actions.

Or is Wilbur like dead…? In this case none of this matters.

[qsmpheadcannons]

Did anyone else notice during Philza’s lore stream Wednesday (dec. 6 for anyone reading in the future) while waiting for Talulah at uppies 2 he says ‘anyone but him’ under his breath, probably referring to the Ender king who he just got a message from.

So either every hardcore stream in season 4 was dreamt of inside of the bird house, or he’s starting to regain his memory.

But will we get to see Kristen in the proceeding lore? Probably not, but I think that would be really cool.

[qsmpheadcannons]

So I’ve talked about the people who were left in purgatory being sent to an actual after life version of purgatory and I would just like to expand on that.

Honestly, even if this happens I don’t think this next part I’m about to mention will, I want to make that very clear- like most things this is just for fun.

I’ve also mentioned how I love how Philza is more of a side character, but in purgatory that kinda starts to change- or at least there is potential for it to. He is picked team leader, he proves to be great at it and then even wins purgatory which puts him in more of a spotlight because of what happens next.

If I’m right and the people left behind really are dead and sent it a form of after life this could prove to be yet another thing that puts Philza in the spotlight. His wife is the goddess of death after all, and we’ve seen Kristen play on servers as Philza before in a canonical way- even if she didn’t really do anything big.

What I’m getting at is; if Quackity allowed, Phil could have a way to save his fallen friends. (And also Kristen content)

If for some reason purgatory killing people or even just purgatory existing was perceived as a crime against nature then Kristen may be able to intervene.

It’s not too wild a thought; because while Phil is primarily a side character his lore does exist, he has had moments in the main character spotlight. And afterwards he goes right back to his spot in the supporting cast almost seamlessly.

From a story telling perspective it would be a good way to not kill off anyone without undermining what happened in purgatory and how it ended.

[qsmpheadcannons]

So I just saw Philza’s end of purgatory vod bc I’ve been busy- and holy shit

So imma talk about the people who didn’t make it on the boat- aka the perspectives I didn’t watch what so ever. Given the nature of the server I don’t think they’re really dead in the way that they won’t be on the server anymore, y’know unless Quackity suddenly decided there was too many people and this was his solution— which I wouldn’t put past this man after everything I’ve seen him do.

I think what may happen is that the people who didn’t make it are just stuck there. The eye said at the end of it all that he decides when purgatory ends and before that he said stuff about having them stay there forever as his play things.

What if that was directed at the people who didn’t make it? I have two main theories;

The giant bomb could have been fake- a way to keep the survivors from going back by making them believe there was no one left to save.

Or maybe purgatory did explode- and they’re now his play things in a different purgatory- a real purgatory. Which would be a creative way to make the deaths cannon without kicking out a majority of the server.

[qsmpheadcannons]

Guys I’m back, so what’d I miss with purgatory. What was up with that, am I right?

[qsmpheadcannons]

So I usually watch Philza and not many other ppl aside from Wilbur. They’re both great streamers, but there is tiny problem;

I have no clue what is going on with other people’s lore.

I watch the support character and they guy who went missing for 3 months- and I’m an English speaker (trying) to learn Spanish.

As much as I try to get into other peoples lore I just can’t. I waited too long to jump into the main story and now I’m doing the mcyt equivalent of watching the last season of a show you’ve never even heard of before. But it sounds so interesting and I want to understand so badly.

I want to get into Forever’s lore so much but I don’t speak Portuguese and have just soooooo much catching up to do. On top of that I’m the kind of person who watches English dub not because I want to, but because I just can’t read that fast- and I don’t even know if Forever has translated subtitles.

I KNEW Philza wasn’t gonna get involved in lore . I knew that I love smps mainly for the lore/storytelling. I KNEW Willbur was focusing more on lovejoy and sorryboys. Yet I still chose them as my main pov’s for the qsmp.

the concurrences of my actions.

[qsmpheadcannons]

How much is cannon on the qsmp? And I don’t mean within the qsmp, I mean like before the qsmp.

Having not been able to be there for the first qsmp stream I am still 99% sure that the hardcore world is cannon. Dsmp might also be cannon, as Wilbur did tell Quackity that he felt like “we were enemies in a past life” but Quackity said he didn’t know what Wilbur was talking abt- which could either be for comedic value or it could be Quackity as the server owner saying he doesn’t want dsmp to be relevant/cannon.

And if dsmp is cannon- is it all cannon? Or just Wilbur and Quackity’s rivalry and some of L’manburg.

Because Earth smp is strongly implied to be cannon in dsmp, so if all of dsmp is cannon, Earth smp would probably also have to be cannon.

list of current qsmp happenings, compiled for organization purposes and my sanity:

at first i was just gonna leave this in the drafts but then i heard apparently there's like FOUR? QSMP EVENTS? HAPPENING REALLY SOON. and the world is gonna explode or something and uhh. Yeah. so let's just put this all on the table now.

i'm also Definitely going to miss things because it would be. Impossible for me to get EVERYTHING, so apologies for anything i do forget!

the eggs are still missing, and the black concrete or "dark matter" has been significantly spreading throughout the server, most notably now to many player's houses, as well as the eggs' ninho rooms and the adoption center. these dark matter trails have previously led to pictures of some of the eggs, which could support the theory that the dark matter has something to do with them

qforever is still Literally In Hell, after being sent in there by cucurucho to supposedly save the eggs. the last we saw of him he was played a cutscene in red and black coloring saying that he shouldn't be there. also walter bob was there.

the bodies of murdered federation workers have been turning up in various pretty obvious places, and with them codes and puzzles. the codes' translations always seem to connect to qcellbit, with them having allusions to his past in prison or in the war with qbbh, and genuinely seem to imply he's relapsed into his murderous tendencies because of all the feds did to him. however, there is the possibility the fed is framing him for these happenings, as cucurucho did tell him there'd be "consequences" for his crimes against the fed. qbagi has also told cucuruchito that she did all the murders to try and save cellbit.

the dice and ticket thing is still happening and still relevant i assume but i don't think anybody's actually been to the room and rolled the dice in a while. we still have no idea who's actually running that thing or what the tickets are for, nor why charlie, quackity, and philza have special tickets. charlie's has slime on it, quackity's has a lotus flower, and phil has black feathers.

the minimes are also a thing. unfortunately. they were project A0 that the fed was creating for some reason, and the island residents are not supposed to have them. in meta, quackity has said that the minimes will be very useful for things later on/soon in qsmp. also, despite the minimes having 6 levels, the federation cinematic only explained what the first 4 levels of the minimes could do.

the unofficially named "revolution", the code's faction that is apparently genuinely against the federation is now known, and recently have contacted etoiles and fit to become initiated onto their side. they have documents on several island residents, where they expressed interest in characters like (again) fit and etoiles joining them, and also cellbit, pac, mike, and baghera. however, they are very suspicious of foolish, jaiden, and forever, and consider them not an option.

speaking of the codes, qcharlie is still being seemingly turned into a code as a result of his closeness with codeflippa. his body is being covered in code and he's having full body glitches and voice distortions. he denies that anything is wrong at all when he's asked.

cucuruchito is also a thing. again, unfortunately. it apparently has the purpose of collecting information that the players give it about island happenings and to give players subsequent answers that they want in return, but it seems to just only say total bullshit all the time. sad.

Those massive fucking alien structures are still a thing. i um. i don't think we've seen a whole lot of anything happen. with them. for a while. but. um. Well i figured id give them a mention at least cause they just showed up and gave us no answers about anything and then just weren't mentioned again. help. these structures were also where some of the glitchy egg pictures were found.

in tallulah's garden, qphil found a super weird book referring to a "child of the sky" whose black wings soared across the heavens, but one day, the sky became silent. "oh, child of the sky, do you remember those days of your journey?" the book then asked, and then whoever's writing it says they and the child will "meet again in a place long lost" and "guide [him] on this perilous quest." a drawing of a deer skull came with this book, and when phil left and came back to these things, they were gone. and vanished from his inventory. Yeah i don't know either. What the fuck.

each of the 4 language specific qsmp accounts have posted teaser images of an ominous puzzle piece, and though it's hard to make out what the pieces are actually depicting, their captions are all very interesting: "it's going to be really fun" by ptbr, "i thought i was the only one" by esp, "this season sends shivers down my spine" by fra, and "you know what i love about halloween? the sand!" by eng. safe to say, we've got an event on halloween.

AND... lastly... fed workers have closed the train station due to "unforeseen circumstances" and are expecting a reopen on november 4th at 1pm pst.

It's so joever.

I don’t like to reblog posts on this blog and try to keep it all original content but I found this really helpful as someone who doesn’t always have a lot of free time.

[qsmpheadcannons]

I want to talk about Wilbur and Philza’s argument in their most recent streams. Philza yells at Wilbur, telling him to leave and find the eggs himself if he’s so upset about it- very much in the way an angry parent scolds a child- causing Wilbur, who was previously just confused and upset, to immediately become defensive, not pissy or angry; defensive.

I’ve mentioned how good Philza is as a supporting character and this is one of the places you really get to see it. Phil is still Wilbur’s father on the qsmp- the last person he should be getting defensive with, which can be taken two ways;

One: Philza is very mature character who is not easily shaken, and even as his son, Wilbur has never seen or is not used to seeing Philza so upset, which in turn is very upsetting to him, (maybe even scary if you want to go further into it). This is the more likely option as they tend to focus on the present in terms of storyline.

Or two: Wilbur is a naturally defensive person who reacts strongly to any sort of implied conflict or threat. For this you also have to consider these types of people typically have some sort of trauma if not other issues like an anxiety disorder or - I don’t know- a poor relationship with parental figures.

Which hits a lot harder when you see how gentle he is with Talulah. He doesn’t even make rules for her; he makes suggestions like ‘maybe we keep armor on outside’, and let me tell you- I am not fully convinced he would’ve done anything about it had she completely ignored him as we have seen other eggs do.

I would also like to point out the fact that Wilbur hates wearing armor, both in qsmp and in previous smps- and what is Phil’s biggest rule? Always wear your armor. The only question left being; does Wilbur hate wearing armor because of issues with Phil growing up, or does Phil have the rule specifically because of Wilbur and some sort of incident that maybe scared him as a parent.

And of course if there ever was an issue between the two in Wilbur’s childhood, it’s very obvious that by the time qsmp began, they had already started to make amends, and are now on good terms even if the effects still linger. And if I were to take a guess at the source of any of these issues, I would probably have to go with clashing personalities and also maybe Kristin’s absence assuming that he being Wilbur’s mum is still apart of the lore on the new server.

[qsmpheadcannons]

I will never get over how much more mature Philza is in his lore than everyone else. He doesn’t have to be, he can choose his own lore, but he chooses instead for his character to always be the bigger person.

And this just goes to show how good of a storyteller he is; he knows the story requires his character to fill a supporting role and he does it without erasing his character’s complexity.

It’s not like his character is never immature, but when he is immature or lashes out, it doesn’t just affect the atmosphere, it completely changes it.

He yells at Wilbur, telling him to leave and find the eggs himself if he’s so upset about it- very much in the way an angry parent scolds a child- and for a brief moment you can feel how scared his character is, and Wilbur who was previously just confused and upset immediately becomes defensive (which benefits Wilbur’s story).

But more importantly Phil apologizes immediately after he’s calmed down, something which we don’t really see from other characters that are described as calm, cool and mature the same way he is. (being more mature isn’t a source of pride for him) It speaks volumes about who his character is, and just how long he’s been around compared to everyone else.

It shows that his character is also choosing to be the bigger person. It shows that he knows better than to wait to apologize to someone he cares about; which taken in the context of his lore can imply that he may have experience with loosing friends or allies in that way.

There’s more I could say abt this, especially with what this can imply about Wilbur and Phil’s father/son relationship, but I think that deserves its own post.

[qsmpheadcannons]

(3:38) In Philza’s stream today will now be interpreted as Philza flirting with a federation member as a distraction for Tubbo and nothing else ever.

[qsmpheadcannons]

All these birds popping up on stream are really getting me worked up. (Writing this mid-stream btw.) the fact that a bunch of birds are ‘randomly’ appearing as they are trying to find and save Forever seems like some sort of innuendo.

Edit: autocorrect

[qsmpheadcannons]

Can we talk abt how Philza called Techno ‘uncle techno’ on stream today?

I know he literally meant nothing by it but I’ve never questioned the SBI family dynamic stronger than in that moment.

Like there are so many possibilities; is he ‘uncle’ bc he’s Wilbur’s brother and therefore Talulah’s uncle, or is he ‘uncle’ bc he’s Phil’s brother and therefore Chayanne’s uncle which makes more sense when you consider that Phil adopted Talulah. OR is he Phil’s uncle and is called uncle like how some cultures don’t distinguish between aunt/uncle and great aunt/great uncle.

And if he is Phil’s uncle, whose his sibling that parented Phil?

Like I said, he probably meant nothing by it, but still fun to think abt.

Edit: I already said this in the comments but just in case it gets buried I’ll say it here too to clear up any confusion; I know the eggs call everyone close to the them tio/tia, this was just a fun thing for people to think on- like an au idea.

[qsmpheadcannons]

Theoretically, if I were to write a fan adaptation combining the hardcore worlds, potato wars, Wilbur’s recreate society series, Earth smp, dream smp, and qsmp, should I keep the setting in Minecraft?

If I were to take the story out of Minecraft I would likely have to switch up some orders of events (all of the smps would stay in order relative to each other) and would rely heavily on popular head cannons and maybe even lore from tails of the smp to fill in some gaps.

However the story would appeal to and be understood by a wider audience, as well as making the story more unique to keep old fans more entertained with the new setting and context.

All theoretical oc.
