Man's an avian, of course he'd smash a chicken
yknow as an ex-dsmp fan i've been finding the contrast between eret's and ren's kingship extra funny
i mean. eret got the crown through betraying people and being ascended by the people he was previously revolting again and ended up being one of the most noble and accepted kings who was ultimately a pretty good guy minus the whole betrayal thing
meanwhile you have ren who was ascended by someone for actively helping the community and ended up enforcing taxes and making everyone outside of his court hate him, accidentally triggering the local resistance guy to make a "not a resistance club"
on that note. i wouldve loved to see technoblade and grian team up.
that sounds like hell. (affectionate)
but yeah the fact that the guy who gained the crown through shitty means was a good king and the guy who gained the crown though good means was a shitty king is kind of poetic in a fucked up way
Two years.
Two years without him.
In August of 2022 I was hanging in a VC with a close friend, when both of us have trouble sleeping we will often hop in a VC and chill until we get tired. During one of these sessions he introduced me to Technoblade by showing me the Sad-ist animations, and I was enthralled *instantly*. Then that bastard /aff left for a week, leaving me to dive headfirst into one of the longest running fixations I have ever had.
I watched a single EvanMCgaming video about the DSMP lore, then proceeded to binge the rest and the rest is history.
My first few videos of Techno's content were : Doomsday, the jail podcast and Techno & Ranboo's excellent adventure, kicking off my love of Boreal Trio. I consumed every bit of content I could, falling into watching both Phil and Ranboo who regularly streamed between long sessions of watching every Techno video I could.
I found a dynamic in that trio in the north I will forever be fond of, eventually extending to the Syndicate as well before I found SBI. I then mained SBI for about two years until...well...y'know. [Wilbur, for fucks sake, you rat bastard /neg].
I found so many people who I enjoy the content of through the silly pig man with an honourable nature and silly banter. At first it was simply just Boreal Trio, then it slowly extended to include so many : Eret, Sam, Tubbo, Niki, Fundy, Jack Manifold, Badboyhalo, Quackity, Karl Jacobs, HBomb, Foolish, Slimecicle, Michaelmcchill, Tina, Seapeekay, Aimsey...
Since then I have accomplished so much. I became a Twitch Mod for Eret [still am, they are an amazing person and streamer]. I've written over 700k on A03. I have made lifelong friends. I found my passion for creativity and was able to channel it once more. I found a home and a safe place.
It lead me into following DSMP to the bitter end, same with QSMP and now I mainly hang around Hermitcraft while still indulging my past fixations.
And it always comes back to Technoblade. He was the key to me finding a sanctuary to be myself in this crazy world and provides me comfort to this day, a little bit of his soul living on through each of his friends and every time we tell his stories.
So do this Voice a favour. Keep telling those legends. Speak the tales far and wide about this fantastic man who was gone too soon but fought a fantastic fight. He brought joy and light to everyone, inspiring hundreds of thousands. He is special enough to be remembered by millions, and has helped bring funding to a rare form of cancer after his death.
Technoblade changed the world, both mine and everyone else's.
I miss Technoblade, but he will never die in our hearts.
I just wish I could tell him thank you, just once, for how much he helped and inspired me.
No but can we say how huge this is for c!Tubbo? c!Tubbo described as a yes man, as c!tommy's sidekick, as someone who goes along with the plan, who overapologizes, who almost died over two discs. c!Tubbo seriously stood back and said "hold on i'm pissed you kileld me" and set boundaries, and demanded apologized, and is not letting up on his anger towards them that he held back for so long. I am vindicated as a c!tubbo enjoyer.
In the words of c!Techno...he is based.
we are safe another day, thank u king
