Finished this piece of my pokemon trainer/myster dungeon character Kib!

how come every time i go outside of my comfort zone its so uncomfortable

If you don't mind me asking, any headcanons as to what happened with Fred? My own headcanon was that they got into an argument and Romeo kind of... lost control. (As if Xara dies and you save him, he says something about how it 'like it wasn't even me') And also, how do you think they even got their powers?

Ok so. Truth is the story of the Admins is a little vague, obviously, but I still think we know more about it than some people tend to believe.

So, I know it's not exactly what you asked, but here's my introspection into the Admin's backstory:

Romeo is a mirror to Petra. Despite Stirpe mentioning that they had to cut a lot of Admin-centric content from the game, the story still does exist. They just couldn't expand on it. And you can tell from just the basic way things play out.

Fred left the cabin with Romeo and Xara after some pushing from the latter two (as stated in his journal). They eventually all formed their own civilizations (Romeoburg, The Oasis, Fred's Keep). Romeo had always been into the more violent aspects of their creations, while Xara and Fred's towns look more humanity centered. The followers of Fred mention multiple times that Fred was loyal and kind to his people (which is why he ended up with such a devoted following).

What's important more than anything is the way Petra's story unfolds in season 2. Her friends are all busy with, surprise surprise, their own towns. Initially, instead of seeing this as something unrelated to her and just the way life is, she takes it as a personal insult. She obviously tries not to, but eventually we learn that she is taking it extremely to heart, even to the point of believing there might be something wrong with her that's making the others not want to hang out.

The thing is that Romeo refuses to believe that there could ever be anything wrong with him, and that instead the fault lies in the others. This too is mirrored in Petra's story, with how she takes her anger out on Jesse and the gang at first, before revealing that in reality she's just insecure and misses her friends. Which... I don't know if you're following along... but is the exact same thing that happens with Romeo.

The only difference between them when you ignore them being completely two different characters is that Petra communicates her feelings and Romeo doesn't. The fact that this scene goes down in The Admin's cabin is one of the most well written parts of the entire game.

So what happened?

• Romeo got upset that Xara and Fred didn't have time for him anymore with their respective responsibilities, while he himself was more focused on the adventures and fighting (glances at Petra) and barely respected their hobbies.

• Getting more and more irritable, Fred notices. He knows that Romeo is well above them in power and that Xara and him wouldn't be able to stop him by regular means if Romeo were to decide to take desperate measures.

• He makes the gauntlet and decides to confront Romeo knowing that there would only be two outcomes--him dying, or Romeo defeated.

• Unfortunately, Romeo refuses to talk out his problems with Fred like Petra did with Jesse, because he sees any method of getting a point across that isn't fighting as below him and "weak." Fred giving him that one last chance to be civil is what spelt the end for the entire Underneath as they knew it. (Even at the end of the game, the only way we ever got through to him was with a few blows to the face. Some people just can't be reasoned with.)

• Xara recalls in episode 4 that Romeo had given them an ultimatum, that being join him in world takeover, or face the consequences. They didn't join and Romeo goes through with his promise.

• (This sort of goes into headcanon territory, but I have a whole post analyzing this point, so it's based on alleged facts.) Romeo is uncomfortable with killing Fred and decides to keep Xara alive, thus beginning his avoidance to direct murder.

• The end???

This is my personal way I see how things played out. I could go a lot more specific, but it'd go wayy more into speculation than this is, and it'd take forever.

As for your last question, I whole-heartedly believe that they spawned in as Admins. Never once human before!!! No way Jose!!!!

I know a lot of people believe that they were originally human because of a line Romeo says at the end; "I hope I remember how the 'normal way' even works." But I think this line has been terribly misconstrued.

I believe the reason he says this is because, back when they first left the cabin, they were much more in-tune with their human community (perhaps besides Romeo, who originally was more lenient with their agricultural interests at first?). If they actually did find some insane way to be all powerful, then it probably would have been mentioned in Fred's journal that recounts leaving the cabin.

And, ultimately, they're obviously supposed to represent creative mode players. You don't find a magical artifact to play in creative, do you? You just spawn in like that.

Thanks for the ask!! I encourage anyone to keep asking me questions!!!

hyperfixating on your own ocs is not for the weak

Dear Pet Rock - TV Room

I feel like this song really fits Romeo 🥹🥹 the guy transforms all the time so I imagine he'd be a little more used to it than anyone else but. Being changed into a completely different body must be an odd experience still. Also he's suicidal. Can we talk about him being suicidal?

New Perspective -- Romeo Animation

My very first real animation with Romeo! I made this one a while ago but I thought I'd have it be my first post because it's pretty significant to me :))

All the areas are from significant points in the game!! The Fred area is where Xara says she watched Romeo kill Fred!! I have a lot of opinions on that guy, but that can be it's own post

Anyway I put a lot of thought and effort into this I hope Romeo would be proud 😞😞

💿 🎶 talking about my character playlists

i love making these so i want to share. scroll down to see my many thoughts about bill cipher, rob from the amazing world of gumball, and... lord farquaad.........from specifically shrek the musical

1. △ Bill Cipher △

this one was built over a loooonggg period of time, on spotify i started it in january of 2024, but i actually was gathering some of the songs a little before then on youtube when i was using that primarily for music. bill cipher has been my special interest for a decade so this one is important to me!!! i think looking back on it now it could be a lot more accurate with its characterization than it is, but i can't be bothered to fix it or change things around since it's 9 hours long. overall the songs do fit him imo but there might be a few stragglers left behind from the times i was immensely hyperfixated on him and got blinded by that

songs i'm especially proud of:

transcendental cha cha cha by tom cardy - self explanatory and one of the most fitting songs for him ever, mixed messages and red flags are funny ones to associate with him too but this one specifically cannot be topped

cows by cyriak harris - as much as i love gravity falls, bill cipher being my special interest for so long has fostered a disconnect from the series he came from and i kinda view him almost like his own thing. that said, this song feels like his actual vibe in the show itself and reminds me of gravity falls a lot

trust me, i'm lying + the bad place by waitress (sounds like his voice but these ones aren't very unique)

peas & love by bear ghost - reeks of manipulative sappy billford ("what are the odds we're both allergic to arsenic? and neither one of us can see in the dark, it's weird! two peas in a pod, no ain't a single flaw, can you believe we're BOTH peas now?!")

he'll use me for his needle show by a verbal equinox

without me by eminem - i can't be bothered to explain right now you just have to see the vision

blank fairy by akira yamaoka - this is just the ambience of the depths of his mind i think, once you pull away the ambience of good vibrations by marky mark and the funky bunch

subterranean homesick alien by radiohead - childhood angst ("i'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me, they'd think that i finally lost it completely, i'd show them the stars and the meaning of life, they'd shut me away")

birdhouse in your soul by they might be giants - i'm your only friend, i'm not your only friend, but i'm a little glowing friend, but really i'm not actually your friend, but i am

deal gone wrong - i'm not sure how fitting this actually is as ambience but i like how the name of the song can fit bill as well as spamton

gallery piece by of montreal - toxic (accurate) billford

like a surgeon by weird al

the more you ignore me, the closer i get by morrissey - i'm honestly really surprised i haven't seen anyone else associate this with him, this is probably top 5 songs i have for him in terms of how much it applies. very billford-y, "i am now a central part of your mind's landscape, whether you care or do not," "when you sleep i will creep into your thoughts like a bad debt that you can't pay, take the easy way and give in"
