Today my obsession is...

Pretty much discribed in the name

[today-my-obsession-is]

I slowly started to fall in love with Yancy from A heist with Markiplier. (+ my flowchart)

All of the characters from Heist were really good. The first one to get to me was Illinois. For some reason, his vibe and flirting was really attractive to me. When I decided that Captain Magnum was also kinda cool. Really strange but so funny with his solid wood legs and "you can call me daddy". Obviously I like Mark in all scenarios especially after all the adventures we had together. And now Yancy.

I actually thought that Yancy was the same character as Mark. They look the same. Almost. So for weeks, while I was working my way to Heist, I was mixing two characters in one. Now I simp for them separately.

I love Yancy's accent. And his songs! And can you imagine how rare it is to see a character who really wants to improve himself and pay for his crimes? I think that the "I applied for parole" line makes us so sentimental because it indicates his growth. He believes that he can be a better version of himself and that he's ready to enter society again. Good for him. I'm glad that we were able to visit him in prison, he was so excited ❤️

Also, I want to share my project! I wrote down every single choice and ending in "In space", "A date" and "A heist" on 2 A4 pages. In this order for some reason. This was so entertaining. I would recommend doing something like this if you want to find everything.

A little about my layout. Pink checkmarks are my first path in space, blue is my friend's. Yes, I let go on my first time. I trusted him more than I should. Bottom right is an order of my endings with "The interview" being the last one. I enjoyed it less than I thought I would because I got scared of pantsless Wilford. And, well, his gun. Some of the notes for "In Space" are in Russian because it was more convenient. When a lot of videos are the same with one different scene, notes are really needed.

I think I will laminate it with scotch tape and keep it as a reminder of how much time I spend with these characters. Maybe one day there will be more projects that I would be able to write down on this piece ☺️

Finished "In Space with Markiplier" and now I'm sentimental 😢

This was such a nice story! I love engineer Mark and all of his variations. And all of the characters in general. For example, Wug. And Celsi. She was so... Sane? Rare occasion in space. I loved all the easter eggs - I founded them all. I wrote down the entire flow chart for this. It helped me find that amazing Warfstache cameo ❤️ I was so motivated to check every corner even after I puzzled together the main story. 

Have to say that I was kinda stupid while playing this. I forgot about my task of delivering an important message to Mark so I zoomed right to the bad ending and was like "Huh?". The second time was so much more enjoyable because I was actually listening. There also was a moment before the final scene of a good ending when I thought that we had fixed all the mistakes but were still going to be stuck in a void. This thought disappeared after I remembered that I needed to finish the video before talking about the ending.

I watched all the videos, when bloopers, and now am going to watch Mark's stream. But it's over. I love huge projects - they give me a lot of motivation to keep going and I can spend days and weeks looking for all the details. But it's so sad when they end. The sentimental parts from bloopers made it worse. Bob's message, that photo with the whole crew and Mark's final speech made it all feel more personal to me. And that song! The Last Goodbye! Stupid and touching at the same time. Big "The Greatest Showman" vibes. Now I will listen to it and think about how amazing this project was.

I'm glad that Mark had an opportunity to create something so touching. Big thank you to him for it ☺️

Want to express my love for Mark's streams, where he explains his projects.

These streams are just as exciting as the original projects. It's difficult for me to grasp all of the details in the video, so having Mark point out little easter eggs or interesting details and the meaning behind all of the scenes makes it so much more enjoyable. Plus, he's so delighted to talk about his work. This is my favorite type of content - just happy people talking about their hobbies.

Right now, I'm watching his explanation of Wilford Motherloving Warfstach. I am getting interesting information, rewatching video that I love, and sharing his positive emotions at the same time.

I can't wait to finish "In Space with Markiplier" and spend 6 hours listening to all the ways he trolled us in this project :)

[today-my-obsession-is]

You get into Jacksepticeye's fandom, and there are 10 videos regarding his characters. You get into Markeplier's fandom and get stuck in there for weeks trying to finish one of his projects.

I love Jack! Really! But I finished the lore of his characters in two days. I've read some fanfiction and moved on. Now I'm trying to figure out Mark's videos. And goddamn, will it take me a minute.

For example, "Who killed Markiplier". So it's 4 videos, when you have "Wilford Motherloving Warfstache" and "Damien". When you have streams where he explains everything. And bloopers. It's like 11 hours of content. After what you can go looking for other mentions of Darkiplier and Wilford. But be careful. "A date", "A heist" and "In space" get progressivly bigger and bigger. I started "In space" two days ago. I already have half of A4 filled with flow charts. I watched about 30 videos. There are 106 in total. I would need some serious dedication to watch it all.

For now, "Fix it from the outside" is my favorite variant. Second place is "Open the door". And the narrator gave me an easter-egg because my decisions were too stupid for him 😂

Yesterday I wrote what I love theories but prefer to solve thing on my own. I take it back. Because now I have MatPat!

Go, MatPat, solve all his misteries!

[today-my-obsession-is]

Markiplier's fandom is too powerful.

I've read a fanfiction with quite a lot of his Ego's and it was fun even though I never even heard about these characters. They all had personalities and was very well-written. And now I started to watch original videos like MarkiplierTV and guess what? Twins Jim and Jim from that fanfic is just a joke about two newsmen with the same name. The Host (who I really enjoyed in that fanfiction) was part of three videos. We know what he can make his narrative come true, what he likes jokes like "Haha, you lost your trousers" and how he looks. There are no story behind how he lost his eyes!

This is a bizarre feeling - realising what character what you enjoy based on two lines of text. Or a joke. But I don't really complain.

It's an interesting adventure - getting to know his Ego's.

I really didn't think what I would enjoy Warfstache. look at this funky man!

My official application to enter the fandom ☺️

Preferred name: Ola

Preferred pronouns: She/her

When did you start watching JSE? Just recently. Two days after Anomaly Found.

Why did you start watching JSE? Originally, it was because I really enjoyed his characters, but later it evolved into a genuine interest in his content. I love his more energetic videos.

What's your favourite things about the channel? The way he starts his videos. It's so over the top.

Do you have a fave ego? Chase. I love Chase. But also really enjoy scenarios with all egos.

What type of community member are you? (lurker/artist/theorist/editor/shitposter/author etc) Very much lurker. Also, I really like theories, but I try to figure everything out on my own. If there would be something interesting in my discoveries, I would try to put it into sharable format.

What else do you enjoy? Video games. I prefer watching overs play. Enjoy horror stuff. ARG's, found footage, YouTube series like Tribe Tvelve and The Walten files. Read a lot of fanfics. Currently reading The Outside by Meowvindite. It's about Jack's and Mark's egos trying to blend in in human world. (really recommend btw)

Are you open to nice messages and new friends? Yes! I am very socially awkward, so it's hard to start conversations first. But I really enjoy the atmosphere of this fandom. You all seem to be very nice people. :)

Consequences of Jacksepticeye.

Is it common to feel motivated by regular entertaining content? Low-key want to be like him. Want to share my emotions, make other people feel better, and inspire everyone.

And that's why I uploaded my first let'splay! It was so fun! Quality is obviously trash, but still. Even if no one will watch it (even I) this video will still exist. It will be a time capsule containing the day when this Irish man motivated me enough to leave my comfort zone :)

I would like to try again. Something what my computer can actually record in normal quality. Maybe a new Minecraft world.

It's so fascinating to me how one person can change so many lives for the better. Even if my current hyperfixation will not last much longer, I will still be grateful for making me take this first step.

Happy anniversary btw! I'm ten years late to the party

Today my obsession is... Sean McLoughlin.

I feel like this time my "obsession" is kind of specific. I'm not interested in Jacksepticeye or Egos. Like i got through it and started liking him directly. Sounds cringe, I'm sorry. I'm talking about a more interview-like type of interest. I'm fascinated by his energy and the way he tells his stories. By his personality and motivation.

But it's uncomfortable. It feels like intruding. Sean and Jack are two different versions of him, and only the second one is a public person. At least for me. I will not think about it anymore, it's hard to form a stable opinion.

I love the way he starts his videos and how "loud" his emotions are. I love how Anti was created. Little hints and pieces for 3 weeks to prepare audience for his grand entrance on Helloween. And other Egos as well? I don't really like them, but I'm glad they exist. Except for Chase. Chase is amazing, and I love him very much.

It's some inconvenient type of interest. I don't understand what content I am interested in right now. Letsplays doesn't work. And! And I was unable to find a fanfic that I would enjoy. There are so many additional characters and x reader (usually I like this type of content, but once again - they are real people. feels uncomfotable).

Even though I can't fully enjoy this fandom, I'm still glad I founded it. Wish me luck with finding an interesting to me fanfiction :)

Today my obsession is... The IRIS Project.

I watched: The IRIS Project stream, half of "Let's talk about IRIS" and two short videos about Chase from 5 and 3 years ago. And it was so good??? Really look forward to everything that Sean may plan for this storyline.

I enjoyed puzzles from the stream even though I decided to not participate when this was happening. But who can blame me? First 30 minutes it's just a computer screen with nothing on it. I thought that it was a "starting soon" type of thing.

It was funny to watch chat lose at tic-tac-toe for 20 minutes 😂

And little video of Chase's life before the anomaly was such a nice addition. I never was interested in Alter Ego so I'm getting to know this fandom just now. It's inspiring to see little bits and pieces of these characters throughout so many years.

Thinking about at least reading wiki. Maybe this will be my next obsession 😉

Today my obsession is... Chase Brody

I'm not happy about that. This character has been around for two days and I already developed a crush? I don't even have crushes usually.

But he was presented in such a nice way? He seems to be... Kind? And not violent? It's nice to see. He seems safe. Just poor unfortunate soul with evil doppelganger? 😂

I may be wrong about him, but god damn. I'm just shocked I got so involved so fast. I guess I need to catch up on those streams that I missed.

[today-my-obsession-is]

Today my obsession is... r/place

I founded a tiktok with history of r/place and once again started to realise its beauty. Apparently some countries put little hearts between their flags as a sigh of peace? God its so cute. r/place feels like pretty telling social experiment.

And when I remember what in recent r/place where was fanart of Dream smp and I felt so delighted by this thought. I really like Dream smp. But more whan Dream smp I like Technoblade. And now he's going to have his little memorials forever frozen for everyone to see on r/place.

I hate when flags or sports team swallow 1/10 of canvas to put something "not-creative" in there. Our community was strong and we were able to keep important things but everyone deserve to put something in this time capsule. Hate the thought of other little fanarts what were lost to wars amongst the flags and huge communities.

Today my obsession is... Welcome to the game.

It's an indi horror game based on the concept of deep web. I can't even explain why I enjoy it so much? I remember reading stupid horror stories about deep web and being friking terrified of all the ways what some of this fictional characters can hurt women just because they can. Maybe it's what traumatised part of me that sees the page of Dollmaker in this game and relives my comparably more happy years? Sound fucked up. May be true.

I still think that this series is cool. First game was pretty simple but still scary. Love the tension. Love little animations of killer and spooky sounds. Second game is even better. It wound be pretty hard for me to play since English is not my first language so I would get haked every time but still. Right now I watch Markiplier struggle :) I think the locations in this game are great and the amount of space what was put where is just right. There are quite a lot of little events what can happen and a lot of dangers around. Love seeing Noir people in all the random places.

Still hate the Dollmaker site. Punch me in the face if I will try to read it again.

[today-my-obsession-is]

I want to try using this blog as a place to rant about media what I currently enjoy. Maybe try and improve my English along the way.

Hope I will not abandon this in two days
