A Very GLORIO 2020: Euri says this year wasn't dramatic enough
A Very GLORIO 2020: Euri says this year wasn’t dramatic enough
Thanks to certain, uh, worldwide events this year, I’ve not actually been to my place of work since mid-March. I was already lucky enough to work remotely 60% of the time, but with my twice-a-week three hour round trip commute no longer in the picture, I in theory had a lot more time on my hands to really get through my backlogs. Believe me, whether it’s anime, drama or video games, my backlogs…
Hello and welcome back to chapter 3 of this magnificently cursed journey! I’m quite enjoying revisiting this odd series so I will be doing more chapters of this in the coming months. I hope you all enjoy!
title: take it past the limit (watch 'em fall)
wc: 4813
summary:
mcc is a highly popular, mostly competitive, for-fun sort of situation. so noxite and scott built a limiter to keep those who are overpowered on the same level as everyone else.
of course, not every piece of technology is without it's faults, so what happens when the limiters break mid-mcc?
“aye aye, captain! no way in HELL i do not do that. he didn’t even need to say anything, he could have just breathed and i’d be like yes sir. absolutely. he could tell me to go into a vault and just run in there bare ass naked, and i’d do it. you guys think- you guys think people followin’ philza off a cliff? i’m telling you, jordan is my philza, okay?”

As you can see, the timeline is pretty messed up. It folows how each Pokemon game was released with an exception of HGSS and ORAS.
I would like to over-analyze this messed up timeline, and hopefully, everyone will accept, or at least, understand how the timeline goes. Remember, I will also be providing the previous Pokedex holders’ ages despite their arcs having already finished.
Disclaimer: The ages specified in this file are not accurate. The timeline is pretty messed up and I only approximate some stuff here. Also, I don’t know how to speak nor read the Japanese language, so this is going to be a tough one. Thankfully, there are numbers there to indicate the time skip, so I’ll be following that. I apologize if I’ll ever make some mistakes here.
Another note, I’ll be using the intended Japanese names of Blue and Green. This means Blue is the girl, and Green is the boy and Professor Oak’s grandson. Also, everyone has their own opinions about the given timelines, so there’s no need to attack me if you think this is wrong.
We all know Sparklez won’t be on the Dream SMP, He’s been doing a lot of on going series at the moment …But that that doesn’t stop me making an AU about it!
Introducing Bones In The Ocean AU, Where The Captain has been the SMP resident Ghost for a while before Ghostbur Joins The Limbo!
Kingdoms Fall
Empires Break
The good, the bad
The price we’ve paid.
I am posting these sketches bc I dunno If I will start making a clean version. I just wanted to attach my ideas together. Like Sparklez being a Captain (or Guard Cap) in the Fallen Kingdom, he fought the Herobrine like guy, lost & got thrown into the ocean and in the depth is where the Goddess finds him & pulls him into the Mianite lands.
Considers themselves the balanced one willing to hear out people
Manipulated by those with more perceived knowledge
Concerned with wars and wants the peaceful and often easier option, regardless of signs it might go poorly
Considers themselves good
The differences, age and breaking points
Jordan (CaptainSparklez)
Older, with the territory comes he realizes some actions are intentionally misleading
His foil is antagonistic and rarely from Jordan's side does he trust Tom to act as he says he will.
Jordan is extremely independent and when pressed between a cause and friendship or percieved friendship will choose the cause. While Tubbo has done the same, their reasons differ. Jordan considers himself noncommittal and even his goddess or a friend is inconsequential if something else takes priority.
Greed. While their balance/middle ground looks similar, Jordan's is largely surface level and he will forsake a level of neutrality for his own advantage
Isolation: Jordan often willingly prefers being left alone to his own devices
Tubbo
Tubbo's age unfortunately translates to a greater threshold for how much other people can push him before he stops
Tubbo trusts his foil, Tommy, and Tommy likely will not betray the trust
Tubbo isn't dependent so much so as he values other people's presence and seeks it out naturally. This sometimes comes at a cost of choosing the wrong people. People pleasing, pretty much
Much more selfless. Not likely to give up his friends for a sword or in his case, a disc
Tubbo would not survive left alone to build a reactor
Overall, Jordan in his older age and actions is more comparable to Philza now but in his early 20s was similar in his spirit, nativity and gullibility, presenting more center protagonist than Tubbo, but often being more sinister and corrupt than Tubbo with his motivations centering more around himself, than his friends or the greater good.
I can see why people think he'd make a good canon fatherly figure, and can also argue Jordan would likely let Tubbo die if Technoblade offered him a fully enchanted netherrite sword if he got to kill Tubbo. Who knows, maybe Jordan's mellowed out enough to not let friends kill children.
This of course isn't a criticism of Jordan's character in Mianite. It was always a joy to see him "sink so low" as the best part of Mianite was none of the heroes were necessarily ever heroic or consistently good or evil. Tom might change heart on a whim, and Jordan had no qualms about ignoring the signs pointing to "this is bad." Dream SMP has more stagnant and defined evil and good, with many popular characters forgoing redemption or changes of heart to keep being villainous.

He’s had many names given to him over the years. Some fit better than others.
His first comes from his parents. He arrives in the dead of winter, howling in his mother’s arms like the cold wind outside. His father tells him years later how with pride, knowing deep in his heart that his firstborn had the drive to survive. He is told how his mother, exhausted but delighted, gifts him with two syllables.
