I think it's really sweet that people portray Noob and Guest's bond getting stronger after the whole apocalypse thing and holy carp why the flipperdoodle is this girl trying to get us, cause like, who else can they trust. They've been shown to be friends before the Xploit gang showed up in their renders and the shared trauma caused by the same person allows them to relate to each other on a whole new level.
But like, I've always wanted to see the opposite of that. Guest's paranoia pumped to the max, who can he really trust? Who's to say someone wasn't sent out by 666 herself to trick them; that every good little thing in the abysmal wasteland they live in isn't just some fantasy made isn't her head to make them feel better. And then there's Noob, can it bare to be in the presence of Guest anymore? Someone you once trusted bares the resemblance of someone who whispers promises of power and freedom, of actions Noob would never dream of. Their bond feels so strong yet so fickle, Noob wants to trust them, but all it's reminded of is red and black. Sometimes they just sit and wonder, does she look like Guest, or does Guest look like her.
Hi welcome to trud confessions, this is my #slop
hello my #slop, this is welcome to trud confessions
it's true the noob&guest bond has been ubiquitous throughout every roblox game like. ever. in the scrapped lore I think there was more focus on bacon and guest being friends (52nd bacon reference where it doesn't belong) but I've still seen way more to do with noob and guest even then.
but to be honest how far can that bond go when you're also being chased by a vicious murderer who just happens to look just like your buddy, only amplified by the fact that said friend is ALSO having their paranoia ramped up to the max. can you trust anyone?. might unleash some unpleasant outbursts sometime soon.
but still, it's not like they have anyone else. if they're not sticking together then they're completely alone in the barren wasteland. if they ever officially break things off it's still likely they'd have to see each other often. there's probably a couple places neither of them can afford to avoid frequenting. and turning survival from cooperation to competition is a surefire way to hasten the painful deaths that probably await them.
and each of them have probably weighed this decision, quietly, in their minds. and separately, they each come to the conclusion that they have to stick together. no longer because they find joy or comfort in each other anymore. out of necessity.
but still, the paranoia runs rampant in their relationship. they've tried to mitigate it. things like code symbols, signals or handshakes from before that only they could know. it works for a while, and then it doesn't. guest666 is too powerful, has eyes on everything. there's no putting a stop to the unending fear always lingering in the back of guest's mind. or the visceral reaction noob has developed when they see someone's who's supposed to be their longtime friend. one day, all noob can see in guest is the red and black.
