ᯓ "It's all yours" .𖥔 ݁ ˖
C! platonic!odyssey duo W.I.P .ᐟ
a/n: started watching the unstable smp and i'm gagged at how good the storylines can be, I love parrot's perspective the most...also I know how this (these two) end uhm don't remind me :< (also this is based off of parrot's first video with wifies in the UU)
“It’s all yours.” Wifies shoved the spy-glass into Parrot’s hand before stepping on the chunk ban. It happened so fast, even Spoke was surprised. Wifies had been standing right there. He was just here, Parrot thought before letting his lower lip fold under his top teeth. As he chewed incessantly on his lip he stared at the wool, bright red and piercing. The spyglass weighed his hand down as he rubbed his thumb over the handle. Spoke caught sight of the spyglass, letting out a chortle before speaking again, his voice was caustic. The bright red wool had taken hold of Parrot’s attention as Spoke cheered. Parrot couldn’t feel the spy-glass anymore, he felt Spoke clap him on the back, he felt his eyes close for a single moment. Trying his best to regain his vision, everything was dark. He heard his own voice in the back of his head…...
“This is my prized spy-glass, so if something happens to you…that spyglass is gone. If I didn’t believe in this I would not have given you that spy-glass.”
“Ok,” Wifies stared at the spy-glass. Parrot watched as Wifies cheeks perked up slightly. Almost a smile, Parrot thought. When their eyes met Parrot let his gaze drop to the side. “Ok, I appreciate it.” Wifies accepted the offer, there was no going back now.
There was no going back now either. Wifies had banned himself for the sake of the “secret.” He banned himself for Parrot. Someone Wifies had only gotten to know because of the trials Spoke put them through. Suddenly the spy-glass felt much heavier now.
“Parrot, you should be cheering right now! All of your work is now paid off.” Spoke had a maniacal grin, something Parrot had learned was customary for the other player. “You’re the winner! You’ve won! It all pays off now…you learn the ultimate secret. Parrot, you can’t tell me you’ve come this far and you don’t want to hear it? I’m about to tell it to you! First you’re going to have to follow me, alright? Maybe you’ll be in more of a celebratory mood once we get out.” They began walking together, it was silent for a moment. Spoke was clearly excited, there was an energy to his walk that made Parrot insecure. “
Do you have any idea of what the secret is?” Parrot couldn’t muster an ounce of happiness. He wanted to be happy. So, he solved all of Spoke’s obtuse riddles, but had he made the wrong choice? Was this secret really worth it? He found himself stepping out of the trial chambers with Spoke.
“No.” Parrot mumbled.
“Do you have…” Spoke paused. His voice lowered with tickled amusement. “Not even like a single clue of this could possibly be?”
“I mean it’s something big, obviously but-”
“Do you think it has something to do with you?” Spoke dropped his giddy persona for a split second. His brows twitching slightly as he spied Parrot.
“I mean you built massive structures.”
“I don’t know if that’s the only thing.” Spoke had a droll tone in his voice. His persona was growing more fickle. One moment he was oddly excited to share the secret, the next he was looking at Parrot as though he had said something foul. Parrot wondered if he did.
“Yeah, you did so much for this.” Parrot sounded astonished, Spoke noticed Parrot’s hesitance to follow him. He could hear Spoke laugh ahead of him. “But I do have one question.”
“What?” Spoke walked slower now, letting his pace meet Parrot’s own.
“So what Wifies said is,” Parrot’s voice faltered, then he continued. “What Wifies said was that if you actually wanted to hide something big from the server, you’d hide it. Which meant that you designed this entire thing, so that I could find it.”
“Then, Parrot, do you think you found it?” Spoke stood atop the obsidian steps, and suddenly his stance became authoritative. Like a knight standing guard. His smile never left though.
“Well, you’re gonna tell me now. So what is it?”
“Parrot.” A sigh escaped the other player’s lips. “I honestly can’t believe you made it this far.” Parrot’s feet were sluggish against the obsidian steps, the moonlight washed over both of them. Parrot walked past Spoke towards his chest. Despite the heat outside Parrot felt cold, desperately ready to slip back into his armor. Desperate to feel safe.
“Honestly this is the one moment I’ve been the most excited for. Parrot, the chest doesn’t matter, the items don’t matter. Look at me.” As Spoke continued Parrot felt any ounce of security leave him.
“What?”
“Parrot, what makes you think that there was a secret in the first place?” Parrot held his breath. “What makes you think I’d make some fun little scavenger hunt for you to find some secret? Because, Parrot I’m going to ask you straight up, have you ever considered this secret was actually real?” Spoke’s gaze was heavy now, Parrot looked to the side.
“Yeah, I mean if you’re creating…wait what?” Parrot felt his chest grow tight, like a rope going taught.
“Oh man, oh man.” Spoke nodded his head while mumbling, “I’m so happy too.” He perked up again, “Do you miss Wifies? Do you think if he was standing next to you he would be proud of you right now? Let me tell you what Wifies got banned for, ‘cause honestly that was pretty heroic by him. I didn’t have to push him in or anything. He jumped in himself because he wanted you to be happy and for you to find your secret. And what did you find—”
“The secret, bro tell me already!” Parrot lunged towards the other player, his mind suddenly riddled with questions. Spoke is playing a game. He’s just reveling in his glory, he’ll tell me the truth. Spoke had slipped out of Parrot’s almost grasp, dusting off his armour. Why is he still smiling? What about this is funny? “What is this yap!” Parrot's voice broke slightly, clearly unnerved.
“Parrot! There’s no secret!” Spoke let out a cacophony of what seemed to be laughter, Parrot could only focus on the words he just let come out of his mouth. “Wifies banned himself for no reason! And he’s never going to know….he thinks you’ve discovered the greatest secret of the server but instead there’s no secret! You’ve wasted so many hours, so many hours! On this stupid little game, and I’ve just been watching, laughing this entire time because you’ve been working towards nothing. And the best part—”
“Prove it!” Parrot let out, desperately.
“What is there to prove? You don’t understand…” Spoke let out another scornful laugh. “Parrot, think! If it’s a secret why would I tell you?”
“What’s the point of all of this?”
“Where is Wifies right now?
“What do you mean…he’s chunk banned.” Parrot replied indignantly.
“He’s chunk banned. Doesn’t it bother you that he banned himself for you. All so you could get nothing. And I think the funniest part-” He stopped talking for a moment, a huge smile like he was in on some joke that Parrot wasn’t, he was. “Do you even know why I let you have a partner?”
“Why?” Parrot muttered, shifting uncomfortably on his feet.
“I needed to take away something from you as well. I could have done a lot to you, from just maybe your build. But that’s not what you really care about, is it? I realized I needed to give you something, so I could take it away. That’s why I made this riddle so that it could bring you guys together, I really hope you guys developed a good friendship. No, I can tell you guys did! Right before Wifies crossed that line for you, it was clear he was making a sacrifice for someone he cared about. It was clear from your silence that you lost someone close to you. Which means I was successful, I gave you a friend. And where is that friend now?”
…It’s all yours…It’s all yours…It’s all yours…It’s all yours…╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ….╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ…╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ…╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ…╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ…╎ℸ ̣'ᓭ ᔑꖎꖎ ||𝙹⚍ ∷ᓭ….
“Where is he Parrot? Where is he? I’m looking around!” Spoke laughed, his gaze on Parrot looked like that of a lion after its prey. “Where’s your telescope? You gotta find him!” The taunting went on for minutes, only interrupted up by Spoke’s laughter.
