more doodles from last night's stream. I'd never heard of VGHS, and honestly?? super entertaining.

Dream SMP? Did you mean MCHS? Yeah, y'know, that show the Dream Team produced in like 2012?

Welcome to MCHS! The most prestigious Minecraft academy in the world. Also known as possibly one of the most unhinged things I've ever created! An AU combining the show Video Game High School by RocketJump and the Dream SMP, because I am very normal.

More is on the way (I've got like 5 more scenes to redraw), but for now here's the line up for the main cast (sans Dream because his design in this au is incredibly basic)

tommy having a creeper backpack is so important to me

no wilbur and tommy don't have a romantic subplot. for the purposes of this au, wilbur is just someone tommy really looks up to and wants to impress

Will Campos will write the gayest character ever, ask "Is anyone going to play that?" and then not wait for an answer

there are about 10 seconds in the new superman movie where johanna braddy is on screen and i said out loud in the packed imax theater "that's jenny matrix. what."

[piedpiiperr]

got to the part where jenny can't think of what to write about her mom because she has nothing and i remember how much this made me cry the first time i watched it

every several years, i feel compelled to rewatch VGHS. it's apropos of nothing, every time. but every time i rewatch it, it always happens to be when i needed to watch it. like, in a cosmic, karmic way

is it a silly show about video games and the internet and high school? yes. are most of the memes outdated now? yes.

but underneath all the jokes it's also about cheering for the underdogs. it's about following your dreams and ambitions despite what other people want for and from you. it's about defeating capitalism (with a perfect, impossible headshot). it's about found family. it's about finding the humanity in the people who hurt you, even when they were doing it intentionally. it's about the changes inherent in life and how people enact change on the world around them, whether they want to or not. and there's always a moment in every rewatch that feels like therapy for exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment.
