Joe: But the thing is, was he really me? I don’t think I’ve ever realized quite so much how I can’t tell if people feel like I do! How they think! Certainly looked and talked like me, but experientially? Totally different! Just as opaque to me as a stranger, or a friend, or a lover! What really is a lover then? Can I really connect to anyone if not myself?

Cleo: Yeah, but did you fuck your clone?

Joe: Oh yeah I mean obviously. Who wouldn’t?

With how much we've seen scar mention teaming with etho next life series I'm more and more convinced that they're gonna start chopping trees together episode one and etho will be like "oh hi scar haha" and scar will say "are we finally gonna put this all behind us and be on the same side etho?" and then bdubs will come running up like "hi guys :) hi etho :)" and then scar will look at etho looking at bdubs and see every future of every universe where he's stuck with ethubs being ethubs for a whole season, and either resigns himself to being the third wheel to a decades long complicated relationship that is both happily domestic and deeply fraught with tension or he has to re-enter the cycle of violence and just kill etho episode one and two and three and

scar thinks they're teamed and then opens youtube dot com to see etho's thumbnail that has bdubs front and center and he's not there. etho cuts out what scar thought was a really meaningful one-to-one interaction but leaves in bdubs talking about etho's morning voice or something. and etho did or didn't mean anything by it but scar is so upset he goes on another villain arc, but first he stops by to complain to grian and grian is like 'youre teamed with etho? I thought I was teamed with etho' meanwhile etho is in cleos base crying about how mean bdubs is being (she doesn't care and she said that to his face)

interactive fiction idea: it’s 2021, you play as a new barktree shipper emerging from the hot new mcyt series triple life. your task is to sus out who else on your dash is also a secret shipper and invite them to your “controversial” shipping discord server without being cancelled. you’ll have to dig through ao3s, abandoned twitter accounts, old rpf fics from a pseud they no longer use, general posts, youtube comments, which username clipped this shippy moment between benthebog and martin ofthebigwaters

gameplay mechanic: you can choose to send out one invite per day because your discord server is very skittish. you can skip an invite if you think there’s no one suitable. your goal is to gain a certain number of members so you can start the bogwaters ship week. fighting against you is the fandom enjoyment meter— it drops every time you see anti mcyt shipping sentiment (which occurs daily) and rises every time you recruit someone or when something gay happens. if it drops completely, you leave the fandom and it’s game over. being cancelled is also a game over.

this begins in june 2021 after the finale of triple life. happy pride month

as the days pass, events happen on certain dates. for instance, a popular artist gets cancelled on twitter for their vaguely shippy brian/foodtimeswithstar fanart and it’s your priority to rescue them otherwise there’ll be a big drop in fandom enjoyment. benthebog and mars ofthebigwaters end up in the same macguffin championship (mcc) with riversymphony and this creates a big boost. someone brings up benbog/lakemonster69 stuff from 2019 to show shipping is okay and fandom enjoyment increases. yes there is a water theme. there’s probably a blue boats 9 reference

cast:

a solitarygamer/botmajor (“shower husbands”) shipper who just wants more triple life shipping and is going “does NO ONE see how GAY this is”

teenager who is very paranoid of shipping after witnessing cancellations and having their riverbog works misinterpreted as shipping

mysterious user who clips the ben/mars shippy moments with ambig captions and if you dig deep enough you’ll find out they were a bystander in the 2019 discourse. dig a little deeper on their old instagram and you’ll find out they were a larry shipper when they were 11

your beloved mutual who has been around longer and all your picks are vetted by them

artist who makes gorgeous art but it turns out they’re one of the untrustworthy doxxers from 2019

someone who puts “DO NOT TAG AS SHIP” on all their posts and you’re like ok much respect. a month later they sneak into your dms like 🥺 i’m consumed by CATHOLIC guilt because ben and mars are kinda… idk…. i can’t even say it… 🥺

mars otbw has an official artist and you carefully navigate around them but it turns out they draw bogwaters ship art on a side blog under a different pseud but You Recognise The Drawing Style

you post a ship fic on anon ao3 and religiously track whoever kudoses/comments

you recognise an anon bogwaters fic writer from their generous use of hozier lyrics and em dashes and recruit them on their tumblr main

a brian/mumble (bumble) shipper from 2019 who came back to cautiously post about triple life but you’re like 👀 i know you 👀 you like shipping

your reward is that you carry out bogwaters week successfully and mars otbw says “happy bogwaters week” on stream and benbog ignores his dms

Might be a weird compliment but I think part of why Cleo and Scott are such an effective team in the life series is because they're both really really good at bluffing.

Cleo is very outright with the fact that she doesn't consider herself very strong at pvp, even compared to other members of the server. But people are still very consistently scared of them. Why? Well, I think a lot of it is that Cleo acts like someone who is really good at pvp. They're often very threatening, very overtly aggressive, as a preventative measure, just to make sure they're never seen as an easy target. Cleo tells everyone that she can and will ruin them at the first slight against her, and frankly, people aren't interested in testing that. Even if Cleo doesn't actually consider themself to be the strongest fighter, it matters more how they're perceived by other people. Fire- which Cleo is very famous for using as an easy punishment for any wrongdoing against her- is also a very good threat display. Usually minecraft fire is, honestly, not that hard to deal with, and the damage is usually superficial (unless you're joel and just kinda stand in the fire until you die), but the thing about fire is that it's big and dramatic. Surround yourself in flames twice your size and make sure you don't flinch when they point their weapons at you and people will be scared of you without you having to fight, because you look like more effort than you're worth.

Scott isn't overtly threatening in the same way most of the time, but he achieves a very similar effect with his ability to keep consistently calm and collected. I've watched multiple scenes where people come to kill Scott just to literally panic and backtrack as soon as he acknowledges with calm amusement or irritation instead of seeming threatened (i also think this is how mumbo got him in wild life- scott is literally so used to startling people with a mostly calm acknowledgment of their murder attempts that he genuinely didn't expect mumbo to actually still activate his trap, even when scott was standing on it). I've watched multiple scenes where Scott is objectively outmatched or even outnumbered in a fight just for the others involved to falter or outright retreat because Scott wasn't acting like someone in any danger, because even if he's on four hunger and one heart, he often still talks like he isn't scared. If you he just smile or roll your eyes and don't flinch back from them, people will eventually get really confused, wary, or tired, and will, again, decide you are more effort than you're worth.

It's honestly a testament to their intelligence, social and situational awareness, and emotional control, that both Cleo and Scott are so good at bluffing (albeit with slightly different forms of it). I don't know how to wrap up this post, they're just really good at this competition, thanks for coming to my ted talk.

tbh i think if martyn (the guy) wanted to ruffle some feathers, he'd make a post like "actually, every fanfic with my character is canon to the datastream. and i do mean EVERY fanfic. including the ones where i fuck nasty" and lean back and turn off all his devices and have some quality time with the people he loves
