Alright. Spoilers for 'Sun has a Plan to KILL ECLIPSE in VRCHAT'.
This is gonna be a fun one.
Trigger Warnings Below for: Cursing.
They really gotta set up, like, a teleporter or something so they can get to GF's faster. I know they don't have magic but, like, get a car? Something? Marathoning over here to the point that an animatronic is losing it's breath is, like, just do something so your not dying every time you have a magic question that's gonna take less than ten minutes to answer.
I know GF wants his privacy and also he's being hunted by every government in the universe or something, but also, like, come on man. Are you really hiding all that well at this point? You get visitors at least three or four times a month, you know? You have kids who wanna come see you.
Oh! I ALSO thought GF wouldn't be affected by the wish. He'll probs figure out real quick what's going on.
That or he's fucking with Sun.
Oh yeah there he goes, literally not even a second later.
I never thought the fucking 'bippity boppity' could be threatening. I'd be nervous too.
"My boy! How ya doin?" Awwwwwwww.
*serious conversation about the power of the Newton Star* *Golden Freddy jamming out on the stairs* Sometimes you just gotta boogie down, I guess.
"You'll need to find another primordial source" Like this one I conveniently have in my backyard!
Sun does not care for magic lore. RIP Sun
didn't they say at one point that there was only one Star per universe? And, that's, like the reason you can't use it in another universe because it's tethered to the universe it belongs too or something?
Newton Star out here with the most confusing backstory of any character on any of the FNAF reactsverse shows.
Maybe it's more of a 'the folks in other universes who have acquired a Star have used it's power so that no one could oppose them.' Lord Eclipse, Lord Lunar, Lord Monty are all the most powerful people in their respective universes, I'm sure they would have just eradicated any other stars/ returned them to their source form so they couldn't be utilized.
Maybe it's different objects. There's just ONE Newton Star. There's Just ONE Star of the North. There is only one object that can do a thing, one star that can grant wishes.
bit cnfoosed.
"You are *dolphin noises* me!" LOLOLOL
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm wasn't a faaaaaaaan of the Stan Lee thing mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Look, okay. The magic shit is always so out of pocket, because, like they just keep adding onto the rules and stuff of magic in the FNAFreactsverse. It's probably one of, if not THE most complicated system in the whole thing because it's built by just slapping more stuff onto this ball of what magic is and how it can be done and stuff. So every episode where they talk about magic or they meet w Golden Freddy is a treasure because I can't take ANY of it seriously.
They just make shit up and it's so fun.
LIKE, DRAGON BALLS NOW EXIST IN THE FNAFREACTSVERSE THEY JSUT MAKE SHIT UP IT'S GREAT
GOLDEN FREDDY IS LAUGHING LOLOLOL
aaand then they ruined it by bringing up the submarine god dammit.
two for two on jokes that were maaybe not so great
Ayyyyyyeeee do you know who ELSE would have the knowledge to make the star via residual memories and stuff because they were in the same body? Someone who has outright been stated to have absorbed all of the magical knowledge Moon had? HMMM?
Golden Freddy is so fun too. He's like. He's timeless. He's been around for a long ass time. He's been divorced, multiple times I think. He's a dad. He has several kids, all of whom are magically inclined. He's lived through the events of the shows more than once and knows what's going to happen. He's from a different universe. He lives in the middle of bumfuck nowhere in a spooky house where it's always raining. He's surprisingly nice. He's the most powerful entity across several universes. He's nearly omnipotent. He charmed his house to jumpscare people randomly because he thinks it's hilarious. He laughed at Moon getting punched in the face. There's a Dragon Ball under his bed.
Sun did the thing! Where you accidentally use a different name casue you've got too many siblings/family members to keep track of and then have to correct yourself. My family does that all the time!!!
Killcode's off enjoying life to it's fullest. I hope getting dragged back into all this shit doesn't end in tragedy for him. We only want good things for Killcode in this house.
It only has to be a good enough reason for Eclipse. Eclipse's reasoning doesn't have to make sense to anyone else. It just has to make sense to him for it to be the thing that drives him.
Sun bobbling his head while he's sarcastically asking GF "Hey! Freddy! Can you zap me home?" was great lol.
Sun this man is a GOD. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU NEVER THOUGHT TO ASK?
DID YOU NOT THINK HE COULD?
HE SHARED A PIECE OF HIS SOUL WITH YOU DUDE TELEPORTATION IS A BABY SPELL TO HIM
WHAT WAS THE THOUGHT PROCESS HERE Im laughing lol
What fucking voodoo doll?
What?
Is this going to become a legit plot point in the future? I fucking hope it does that sounds real funny.
Poor Sun he's so fucking stressed. He even looks stressed in the thumbnail. Of course the second Moon's gone he's out trying to solve the problem.
That was less stressful than I thought it was gonna be. This was a fun episode. Lore heavy, moving the plot forward, but like not heavy heavy you know? It's a nice reprieve.
I CANNOT take the serious moments w GF seriously at all. I can't do it. "How do you know this?" "Maybe it's because I lived through it once already." "You're not from here are you?" "i'm from many. I'm an amalgamation. I've seen a LOT." My DUDE. You are a FREDDY FAZBEAR. This cryptic shit DOES NOT WORK.
Eclipse has been through the fuckin ringer. He needs a break too. Shit.
NEW COMPUTER LETS GO collecting them like shiny rocks
Okay, so is he building/ creating new bodies and they keep wearing out? Or is he still using Solar Flare's body and it's failing? Because the idea of him making bodies and them just decaying under the weight of the star's power to the point that he's racing to make new forms to sustain it sounds REALLY cool to me.
Oh.
Never mind. ;-; lol
"What's stopping the thing from going? I can do it, just tell me what it is."
I have thoughts about this line. It's very...
Like, the way he
He's dying. He's in pain. He's on the ground, because he's exhausted. But when the AI tells him there's a problem, he pulls himself up anyway. He's still insistent he can do everything himself? It was almost desperate sounding.
I dunno. I kinda, like,
It reminded me of Sun. A little bit.
So way the heck back, right after Eclipse 'killed' Solar Flare, there was this really tiny moment where Solar Flare broke through again and Eclipse was like 'I'm still working on eradicating his code completely. It'll be finished soon or something.' but we never really 100% got confirmation that Solar Flare died died, so I'm not super surprised they're back. I won't say I anticipated it, I forget about Solar Flare a lot (poor dude got five minutes of screen time rip) but I'm not surprised because that small moment explicitly left it up in the air that they were probably alive.
Good for them. Good for Solar Flare. This is a concrete attempt at taking Eclipse down and one of the most solid attempts I've seen so far. Taking Eclipse out while he's weak. Solar Flare is stuck in Eclipse's body, scattered and ruined but still kicking, and they're gonna make that Eclipses problem. They got handed a short end of the stick but by god their gonna make sure to use what they got.
We got so little of Solar Flare, for meta and lore reasons alike, so this feels like a vindication for the character. A 'Your time to shine was taken from you unfairly for reasons out of your control, so this? This is for you.'
Good shit.
He's nervous about confronting Solar Flare. He's unsure of himself, which is so cool to see from a character like Eclipse who is usually so self-assured in the way he talks, in the way he carries himself. He's running on empty, time is running out, and he KNOWS it. He's fumbling.
Which changes completely when he turns and starts talking to the AI! Before he goes into his mindscape.
That annoyance! That bravado! That smooth talking confidence! IS he working himself up to talk to Solar Flare? Is there some other reason he's nervous? It was a very distinct change in demeanor.
One one hand, I like specific numbers. I'd like to know how many uses Eclipse has out of the star.
On the OTHER hand
ANY use of the star could be his last. So now we, as the viewers, are sitting here waiting to see which Jenga block is the one that topples the fuckin tower and isn't that just SO MUCH MORE ENTERTAINING??
Also, quick aside, what IS Eclipse doing with the Star? Like, we've only seen him use it a couple times right? We've seen him teleport, he wiped everyone's memories of himself and Sun and Moon and replaced them and he's teleported other people. He's GOT to be doing something else with it if he's at the point that he's right at the edge of irrevocably damaging himself. Right? Or is the star really just that draining?
Insert various quotes about the prodigal son.
It's been THREE MINUTES Faffers sit down and watch the damn episode already!
He's banking on being scary. He HAS to be scary. IT's all he has, but Solar Flare can read him so easily.
Solar Flare is interesting. He started gaining self consciousness at the point he was 'killed'. but he was also still very much a product of his programmed functions. We left off with him taking the first steps towards full self-functionality like the rest of the animatronics but he never quite got the chance to fully blossom into his own person beyond being a robot. If... any of that makes sense.
It's cool that he's STILL THERE in terms of growth. He's been stagnated all this time inside Eclipse. He's still a robot, built for a coded purpose (protecting Killcode), still teetering on the verge of becoming more than that.
ECLIPSE IS SO FUCKIN BITTER OVER BEING BETRAYED
He's so upset about being fucked over by his creations. He's got so much hatred for them.
It's
Like.
I don't know WHY Eclipse needs Sun and Moon alive.
But he is a creation of there's whether he sees it as an intentional creation or not.
I wonder if he's jealous that he needs them but his creations don't need him?
Good Shit
Good Shit
Good Shit
Good Shit
Good Shit
Eclipse has fucked over a LOT of people.
But I'd say, more than anyone, he's fucked over Lunar and Solar Flare.
Watching one of the major victims of his torment stand up and say, 'You do not scare me anymore. You do not have power over me anymore'
If ANYONE gets to make Eclipse face his actions, however that comes about, it should be those two.
Mutually assured destruction, with no hesitation it's so fucking good this whole thing is fucking great im going insane
Good Shit
GOOD. SHIT.
'It's like talking to a goddamn brick wall with you!'
Eclipse
Honey
Please
(like father, like son hmm?)
That's not a very good deal bro.
Like, Solar Flare literally just explained WHY he wasn't going to let Eclipse go into his own body.
Eclipses response was literally just, "But what if did anyway?"
And he didn't even offer anything like bro that was such a shitty deal my duuude
I am adopting 'piss ant' into my vocabulary of insults
I was literally in a call with other people when he said that and I started laughing and we agreed that that is such a CHILDISH insult
I'm getting
"But you won't"
"Bitch"
Vibes from Solar Flare. Lol
Seriously now.
What is he using the star for?
He could build a new body, eradicate Solar Flare, and do so in a way that prevents any damage to himself. Continue using the star, experimenting until he figures out how to use it completely, like Lord Eclipse from the other universe. He could wipe Sun and Moon from the face of existence, eradicate even the memory of them, subject them to their worst torments for eternity for his amusement, tear apart worlds to fit his image, torment those who oppose him or even those who just perturb him. The star has always been upheld as this object of ultimate power and Eclipse has it IN HIS HANDS! ANY problem he has could be solved with the power of the star SO WHAT IS HOLDING HIM BACK??
Is he.. really just that incompetent? Or have I just misunderstood the actual power of the star at this point?
There HAS to be something else. Right? Like, there HAS to be??
'Who taught you to cuss?'
'You did.'
LOL
He gets read like a book at the end and tries to bare his teeth in response and Solar Flare shuts that shit down.
He's so reliant on being scary, on being in control, that even when he's turning tail and leaving, he's still acting like he has any hold over Solar Flare. Because he needs it. He's wrestling for ANY sense of control right now.
He's been so affected by the people around him betraying him
His creators abandoned him. So he made others to love him. But they betrayed him because of who he was. And now he's worried everyone will. It folds into his plans, so much so he's afraid the AI he made to serve him will turn on him too.
I'm excited to see how he's going to give them 'false hope'.
Oh hey, I just noticed Eclipse has these little spikes on the back of his upper arms, that's cute.
Spoilers below for The Sun and Moon show Episode 'Killcode's DARK SECRET in VRCHAT'
Trigger Warnings Below for: Cursing
Killcode! My boy! He's back!
and he's in the middle of nowhere! Hooray!
Why do these animatronics keep runnin' out of breath? Who synthesized lungs for them?
"It has been awhile." It sure has! If I'm not mistaken, Killcodes last appearance was in the episode 'Killcode HAS A BODY!? in VRCHAT' which aired on May 19th, 42 days ago! Killcodes been out helping folks, workin at soup kitchens and perhaps repairing Moon's less than stellar reputation.
I'm very happy Killcode's had such a nice turn around.
Him pretending to drink tea is adorable.
He's so kind now! He really is taking advantage of this new life he's been given. God damn. Preparing an extra serving for someone else, even though he can't actually drink? Because "you never know who might stop by"? That's... such a wonderful outlook on life. He can't even drink the tea but he still makes two because it's the experience that matters.
I'm also happy for him.
"Not... entirely true, but go on." >:) Give me star lore I want it nomnomnomnom
That makes sense to me. The star's power is mostly magical in nature, according to Golden Freddy. Magic seems like a more abstract material/concept in the Fnafreacts Verse so... Like, it's imbuing. Which sounds like what Old Moon probably did to make it in the first place. As long as you have a physical container you can put the magic inside it. There's probably no limit on what that could be. Could be a shard of wood or a living animatronic.
I always thought that the star was indestructible because of the sheer power of the thing, but it occurs to me as of this episode it's indestructible because Old Moon made it that way.
...
Old Moon's kind of a dumbass then isn't h
Moon didn't make a decision immediately. He wants to speak with Sun first, because Sun is a part of it. :)
Gotta catch up with Sun and see how he's doing looking for Eclipse with the help of AI1 who is totally not Eclipse fucking around with him
I have thoughts on the episode, which I'm still writing out, but uh.
Sun saying that the barrels are super important to him and that cleaning them is 'the only thing that keeps him busy now a days' following a whole bunch of discussions about how they can just change the barrels or get someone else to clean them so he doesn't have too or Sun being told that it's bad/ a problem that he's so fixated on wanting to keep them clean by the two people who are constantly trying to make him feel better and making excuses, reasons they need to be cleaned, most of which was played off as jokes or lighthearted scenes, was
I KNEW this was going to come back to bite him in the ass, auuuuugh consequences. Lying to Moon, I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO COME BACK TO BITE HIM AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Moon's crying AUUUUUUGH OH MY GOD
THE FUCKING ANGUISH AAAAAAUGH
This is the culmination of several things. Old Moon, Sun's lying, how Sun sees New Moon, How New Moon sees himself, lying about the star.
THIS IS SUCH A GOOD EPISODE THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANTED YES YES YES
