How'd the conspiracy team meet?
I think I might write a shorter fic at some point about Cub and Ariana meeting and all that, but here’s the general idea:
Ariana and Oli met in their freshman year of college (or university for you non-Americans). Both of them were music majors, and they grew very close very quickly. By default, Oli also became friends with Grian since Ari and Grian are pretty close.
Cub tried working as an assistant teacher for a while at a local high school, but it didn’t really work out. It wasn’t challenging enough for him, and he started looking for other labs to work at. However, he doesn’t regret his time there because he met one of the brightest (and most unhinged) kids he’d ever met—Tubbo. Tubbo was always eager to learn and use the scientific method, and the two kept in touch after Cub left so that he could recommend Tubbo to big companies looking for outstanding interns.
The Conspiracy team started off with just Cub and Tubbo. Cub asked Tubbo for his assistance since he’s sharp and is able to connect dots and catch little things that Cub otherwise would’ve missed. Tubbo agreed to help to avenge some friends in a sense (remember when Xisuma mentioned a few subjects had died and some families pressed charges?).
I’m still not sure how Ariana and Oli get involved in the team, but it’s something to do with Ari meeting Cub one day. I just.. have to think about how that works..
