I'm being so fuckin for real: you should consider writing a novel based on your BB story. (Kinda like how 50 shades came from twilight, just 1000000x better). I think I speak for most of us when I say we would eat that shit UP. You have such a fantastically vivid and enthralling writing style, I just get sucked into whatever you write. The way you mesh the horniness of wanting BB with the liminal horror of the Backrooms and the fact that he's an eldritch entity wearing your (ex?) bf's face is so unique and I'm obsessed.
(To be clear, I'm not trying to pressure you in any way, I just wanted to let you know that your writing is fucking PHENOMENAL)
Thank you so much for saying so! Genuinely that's so fucking sweet, I'm so glad so many people are loving the series 😭🙏
The craziest realisation actually hit me this morning: BB is literally just entity OC with Finn Bennet's face that's like 1.5 weeks old and we all collectively lost our minds over him 😭
ok. so the framing of each finale of the kings arc is driving me completely and utterly insane. especially the titles and thumbnails . they're all such perfect representations of each protagonist's unique personal connection to the arc as a whole so i took a look at them ↓
starting with parrot's: "I Became King of the Unstable SMP"
this title&thumbnail mainly focus solely on parrot's Fuckass Personal Beef with lettuce
everyone on parrot's side is wearing diamond, while everyone on lettuce's side is wearing netherite, despite many of the players pictured on parrot's team (minute, jumper, flame, etc.) having netherite in the actual episode. he's positioning himself as the underdog. add that to his list of 1000 complexes
his thumbnail is the only POV to feature faces outside of the main 4 protagonists, who otherwise just have seas of Default Players. he doesn't gaf about the fighting itself, and his POV has always been focused wayyyyyy more heavily on the interpersonal relationships/politics than anyone else's. also because he is genuinely useless in pvp [<- joke]
spoke's: "4 Minecraft Pros VS 2500 Players"
unlike in parrot's, there is Nothing here representing the law At All. because he Does Not Care. spoke is in this fight to get leo once and for all. that's it. his playlist is even called the BAT arc instead of the kings arc because of how laser-focused on leo he is
the only reason he's even here is because leo happens to be working with the law; to him, this is just another sea of players to fight. he doesn't care about the law itself or what they're doing to the server.
he just wants leo dead and will enjoy the collateral damage he causes during his power trip.
in his previous episode, he says, VERBATIM, to jumper: "i don't care how many people leo sends to try to kill me, because that's just more people that i get to kill. let's not act like that's a bad thing at all for me." <- ARE THOSE THE WORDS OF SOMEONE WHO CARES ABOUT THE PLAYERS OF THE SERVER????
everyone's held item is pretty self-explanatory, but spoke carrying that fishing rod more and more often to the point where it's essential enough to his character to be in a thumbnail drives me CRAZY!!!!!
ashswagg was RIGHT bro. he is Literally Certifiably becoming ash.
LIKE WE ALL SAW THAT ENDING RIGHT. RIGHT.
wemmbu's: "Unstable SMP: The LAW"
this is the title/thumbnail combo that made me go Ohhhhhh there is really some visual storytelling happening here.
although the thumbnail is framed really similarly to spoke's, wemmbu has more of a personal investment in taking down the law itself (which is . Pretty obvious when you look at his pov)
there's still a sea of players, but they're visually affiliated with the law b/c of the castle that they're overlooking. and the title is pretty upfront about it too. LOL
in this case, wemmbu's goal isn't entirely a senseless fight; he wants to get revenge & justice for everything the law has put him through.
also. the fact that flame has a shield instead of a sword. as its primary targets, he and wemmbu are justly defending themselves from the law. it also perfectly mirrors the situation in the 2v1000 video (where wemmbu sees flame as an ally !!!)
notice: SPOKE DOESNT HAVE A FISHING ROD IN THIS ONE!!! that says a lot about him too, b/c no one knows wtf he's up to!!! no one knows what he did to leo.... he's keeping everyone in the dark & we see a glimpse of that through wemmbu's perception of him
it's been a whiiiiile since i've seen the eps, but i think the last Genuine Longform interaction he&spoke had was when spoke broke him out of law prison right ??? hence the pickaxe??? and also he's sneaky and in the walls all the time whatever. there's something there idk
the conclusion for this one is that wemmbu is literally niceys. he sees the reasonable side of flame (and considers him a friend/ally atp), the helpful side of spoke (even if its a facade and spoke lowkey just wanted to use him for his mace), And just the fact that he didn't kill parrot multiple times dude i would've run him over with a minecart by now. im deleting this bulletpoint
flame's: "2500 Players VS Minecraft Combat Master"
flame's whole Thing in the kings arc has been training SOLO to get back at the law. and we see that reflected here !!!!
he says that he's made his whole purpose combat and chooses to face all of it alone
it's a parallel to the way he even framed the first bit of the arc, the 2v1000 with wemmbu. he'll do it begrudgingly, but it's tough for him to acknowledge that it's ok to work together with other people & that it's not always a dog eat dog world. Ok.
comparison of those thumbnails below because imperial fire's respective views on their rivalry has always intrigued me.......
EDIT: a comment on the wiki pointed out that in the thumbnails for every video in flame's training arc, he was either wearing diamond armor or none at all. here, he's wearing netherite again, showing how much he's progressed !!!
Ok. Thats it. all this to say... i feel like the best way to enjoy uu is by watching every pov. because SOME of these guys are unreliable narrators and you have to watch every vid to get the full picture
Big fan of Django being someone who—if he cares about you that is—will get extremely mad on your behalf over whatever wrongs you may have experienced in life. So mad would he get that it could possibly end up with him making things even for your sake as he is a very "eye for an eye" type of person. It's just fascinating to see a man who claims to not give a shit about anything put all of his time and energy in getting so fucking ridiculously pissed off because you managed to worm your way into his heart. And ultimately that's just his really fucked up love language.
hi mary how would you feel if I told you that do to wack circumstances my tuition to my 2 year community college was over 4,000 dollars last semester?
What the actual fucking fuck? Why? I thought community colleges were free. Because. Idk. Communism or something. But that's crazy. I could buy a car w those 4,000, here. A car, a motorcycle and a new phone if I really try, lmao. What the fuuuuuck #whatthefuckamerica
