Phil needing to feel secure and safe, doing this by perching —> Phil starts perching on Etoiles whenever he‘s around
Problem fixed WHEEZE
I‘ve seen a couple of people draw qEtoiles with a tail and I am SO NORMAL ABOUT THAT
Usually for most characters I headcanon to have a tail it serves either for balance and / or combat purposes. On occasion I headcanon Phil with some kind of tail, because I‘ve seen people do that and I am so normal about it (lie), usually a long fluffy tail that he uses for various things ( attaching lil bags on them to carry things, balancing his perching and flight, etc. ) just because I love fluffy tails that you can wrap around your fellow friends <33 KAJAJ
With Etoiles I think it‘d have no direct purpose like above and it is just an appearance thing, but I love it either way
If Etoiles doesn‘t see Phil at least every few days, especially in my Code au after everything that’s been happening there, then by the time they do interact again he just instinctively wraps his tail around one of Phils arms because. You sir. Where the fuck have you been AJAKJA
It‘d be funny if Etoiles doesn’t even notice it himself sometimes, it just happens and Phil gets used to it eventually that he just tags along with Etoiles & follows him around
It‘s late.
The room is dimly lit, the only light that was offered being the few shroomlights that were hanging around the bunker.
The room is quiet, followed by the soft rustling of feathers every time he brushed his fingers ever so carefully through the black and tattered wings.
A yawn escapes him and he momentarily stops his movement.
Etoiles is angry tired.
His eyes glance down at the soothing weight against his legs, watching the smallest of movements every time the curled up figure took a breath.
Phil is still here exhausted, and passed out.
His head rests on one of Etoiles‘ legs, arms curled around himself and a blanket barely draped over his resting figure.
The floor wasn‘t the most comfortable to sleep on, but Etoiles didn‘t want to move and wake Phil up on accident either. He deserved at least some kind of rest because he‘s sure the Federation didn‘t even give him that. Sick assholes.
The screen from his communicator lights up and his attention wanders to the whispered message.
FitMC whispers to you: Wdym he wanted to go back?
He blinks.
He thinks back to earlier that evening, sun setting and his return to the spawn area. Etoiles knew that Phil had a tendency to stay up late, so visiting him in a couple of hours was not a problem.
He briefly wonders what would‘ve happened if he hadn‘t seen Phils heavy steps in the distance, directing his pathway to one of the buildings constructed by the Federation.
Etoiles sighs and goes to message Fit back, mentioning his encounter with Phil insisting on walking back there and waiting until they take him back in.
He doesn‘t mention the way Phil was not even listening to reason at that moment, or the way he kept mumbling about how imperfect he is and insisted on being fixed, or the way Phils eyes didn‘t have this light in them anymore and how out of it he was, or still is.
He‘s seen Phil laugh and chuckle in amusement, yell and scream and shout in anger, but seeing a fellow fighter he looked up to, his own friend so.. broken down like this. Gods, it stung.
Phil moves a little in his sleep and pulls Etoiles out of his thoughts. He sighs and after a few seconds pass by, Etoiles’ hand goes back to brushing through the feathers.
He wasn‘t sure if he was doing it to distract himself from his anger or if he was attempting to subconsciously soothe the asleep avian, but he knew one thing for sure:
He wasn’t going to let them take Phil back again.
Silly conversation thought I had for QEtoiles & QPhilza in regards to my silly Code!Philza idea
I was tempted to make a small writing with the title „I am your arms, so let me be your shield“.
It would be a conversation a little while after everyone finds out about Phil being a partial Code, so he isolates himself from everyone until Etoiles goes there to basically drag his fighter buddy back.
Cue a conversation along the lines of Phil asking Etoiles if he’s here to kill him - it‘d make sense to Phil, y‘know?
Etoiles starting to question Phil with „Have you ever hurt the eggs? Or the others?“ and obviously Phil has never done so with malicious intent. For the funnies he’s fought with other Players, but otherwise it was never for malicious intent.
Just imagine Phil going „Of course not!“ and Etoiles immediately snapping back with „So who cares if you are part Code then?“
Just imagine Etoiles going „Then let me be your arms again, Philza. Let me be the shield that protects you.“ and Phil can‘t help but crack a laugh that‘s an attempt at not crying, a small memory of something something For you the world, Phil and To the gates of Hell replaying in the back of his mind.
It‘s either that or Etoiles makes Phil fight him to let out the feelings Phil‘s been building up ever since. Give your sparring buddy a good smack in the head to get him to his senses WHEEZE
Phil is distressed.
He is not just distressed, he is panicking and overwhelmed and everything is just too much.
He is pulling and pushing, trying not to hurt anyone as he tries to remove himself from the situation. He can feel the stares, hear the whispers and he hates it, he hates it so much, just please let him go, let him go and let him disappear and -
"Phil, c‘mon, it‘s okay," comes a voice so soothing, so unlike the bear he knows and yet no matter how many times he gently tries to pry from the grasp the other has on him, he can feel his stomach turning and his mind yelling at him to stop.
Stop moving, stop fighting - go back, he needs to go back. Be a good crow, be good and obedient, stop fighting.
He needs to fight.
But he‘s not supposed to, he can‘t.
"Please," Phil whimpers in between his erratic breathing broken up by the quietest of sobs, hands grasping at the bunched up clothing between his fingers, unsure of whether he is trying to push the person away or keep them closer to himself. "Go, let go- please, need to go-"
Hands steady him at each of his side and Phil lets himself be guided down to sit on the ground. One of his own hands finally lets go of the person he had been trying to get away from - or to get closer to, didn‘t want to let go from - and instead comes up to brush away any stray tears, to hide his face.
"There we go, just stay for now." For now? What happens after that? Does he go back to the bear, to the cage they‘ve put him in like the good little crow he is?
To where he doesn’t belong?
Maybe staying is good. They need him to stay, so he‘ll stay- he’ll stay and listen, like the good little crow he is.
He won‘t cause any more trouble, he‘ll be good, he promises.
He won’t fight, he won‘t flee.
He‘ll stay -
"I‘m here, you‘re safe," Etoiles mumbles and slowly adjusts their positions until Phil is properly curled up within his arms.
Etoiles.
Friend, Flock.
Good, protective, safe.
Phil starts paying more attention to the way Etoiles is rubbing one of his hands along and over his arm. To the way Etoiles is basically hiding him away, body used as a way to shield him from any outside gazes. To the way Etoiles‘ tail is wrapped tightly around Phils own, tugging at it occasionally, that he‘s not going anywhere.
Etoiles is here.
Etoiles isn‘t part of the Federation.
His mind feels a little clearer at that realisation, eyes slipping shut in exhaustion and defeat.
"That‘s it, there you go. Everything will be okay, it‘ll be just fine," Etoiles mumbles, head leaning on Phils own as Phil tugs himself further against his flock.
His wings feel too heavy, his body too tired from being on a constant edge and now becoming almost entirely unresponsive.
His breathing slows down, the last of tears quietly running down his face until they too eventually dry up and stop.
He can hear other people talking, especially once flock starts answering questions, but he just listens.
He doesn’t have to speak, flock is here. Flock will take care of him, keep him safe. Flock always does.
"Do we know what triggered his reaction?" Another of flock asks, kneeling down besides them and getting closer. Phil lets out a coo at this, which causes flock that is holding him to start gently rocking side to side.
It feels nice.
"No, don‘t think so. Fit, can you ask Foolish? I think he was last to talk to him."
The agreement is quick, leaving only him and flock holding him to their own.
Not that Phil minds, he likes flock. Very good flock.
Phil doesn‘t take long to doze off.
Good morning, I‘m on another brainrot about QSMP Code!Philza
Imagine the others finally being able to put a reason behind Phils odd occasional behaviour, the way he just randomly passes out or freezes up with no response for a while, the random explosive behaviour of whatever emotions suddenly come out and the occasional bloodlust he feels even when he isn‘t fighting and hunting - only to find out he’s partially made out of the thing that they‘ve been fighting all along to keep the Eggs safe.
Hell, did Phil himself even know it before then?? That he‘s partially a corrupted Code while having been fighting against the Code Monsters all this time????
The uncertainty of what ifs following Phil everywhere - and so many people can‘t help but no longer see Phil as the Philza they once knew.
The doubting and isolating that begins as soon as Phil notices, questioning when and if the Eggs return, will they too be scared of him? What about his Children?? What about Missa???
Would Chayanne refuse to call him his Father now? Would Tallulah be scared of even coming anywhere close to him? Would Missa abandon and leave him again because surely Phil is no longer a safe person to be around with, right? At least Missa has a good reason to entirely leave him now, right?? Phil has and would give anything for his little Family and yet imagine it breaking away so easily because he is the one thing that he swore to protect them from.
How do you protect someone when you are that thing?
I AM SO INVESTED IN THIS IDEA. PLEASE
since i haven‘t felt able to make a proper story out of this writing wise, here‘s my entire ramble regarding Phils origins within the code au :D
i will give a small warning that i‘ll be talking about ( child / experiment ) death, as well as general inhuman treatment and lab things such as experiments, etc. i won‘t go into details, but i will be mentioning them!
I imagine if anyone tries to comment on the aspect of phil being partially code- etoiles will be the first one to pull up with his new sword in front of him, defending phil as much as possible. which would definitely garner different reactions from the members of the island :O maybe some would trust him more bc if the man who battles the codes himself says he's fine then who else is more qualified to approve him? but others may see the coded corruption lining up etoiles arm from the shield and think something much more sinister is brewing up between the two. whether it's believing that they've both been teaming up- or that phil had done something durring their convo while isolated. who knows :> (I love any code related phil aus this is great) - 💿
THISSSS, I AM VOUCHING THIS SO HARD
The more Etoiles shields Phil every time the code aspect is mentioned, the more rumours start to spread on what if Phil has somehow gotten to Etoiles and is using him?? What if Etoiles himself is starting to be corrupted now too??
Which brings even more questions because appearance wise Phil doesn‘t really show any signs of being corrupted or being a partially code, so why is Etoiles starting to look corrupted? Which people could suspect as a side effect of maybe mind control or something like that, which makes people panic even more.
Would People now start to lose trust in Etoiles because of it or would they start plotting against Phil because they want to save Etoiles?? There are SO MANY possibilities and I am living for all of them!!
I also feel like a lot of people, even those who still show their trust in Phil, often have an „what if“ thought in the back of their head no matter what and tend to be more on edge when Phil is around
Also you and me same, I absolutely adore the thought of code related Phil AUs and I have so many ideas around it >:D
I will definitely speak more about it and maybe draw more things for it soon <3
