I hate Wilbur’s chat during lore so bad. My man is disclosing the whole ass reason why he constantly blamed eret for shit (to mask his own insecurities) and they’re like “HES GASLIGHTING”
I love whenever people get into disputes over how the dsmp’s afterlife and ghosts work because I’ve just fully accepted the concept that maybe ghosts can just have different shit going on dependant on how and why they died.
Man, I respect ranboo a lot as a cc. The dude’s pretty well spoken and the way he just articulated his thoughts on the mcyt community was so nice.
Like, the way he’s speaking now on the nature of discourse, and how it usually stems from people feeling too attached to a cc beyond the normal boundaries, in both his community and in plenty others, is just very insightful.
Him stating that CC’s also aren’t proud of seeing of people engaging in arguments on their behalves is also very nice to see, and it’s an especially good reminder considering everything happening recently.
God, c!Wilbur is really making a return to form in his final jaunt huh.
He’s always been especially good at saying what people want to hear, and has always been good at psychoanalyzing people. It’s why his whole thing is words over violence.
And now he’s using that ability to give himself a good send out. At least in his own mind. By hopefully having people not remember him at his lowest, as a ‘monster’, but to remember him as who he was and who he desperately is still trying to be: a good person.
hey guys, can we just like, not start theorizing if a friendship has ended when it is A) none of our fucking business and B) very fucking parasocial? can we just Not start “taking sides” in a fight we currently have no clue happened or not? can we cease with the weird evidence compiling of proof that beeduo had a falling out cuz i’m gonna be real, ya’ll are sounding a lot like how p0ppytwt sounds about their freak ass ships and it’s concerning.
I just started playing a parkour map and only just realized it was made by two of the mcc rising participants, yomikester238 and stemister! They have a little “parkour vips” list with all the mcc rising players at the beginning :D
Man, regardless of some of their flaws, Wilbur’s past two lore streams were really fucking good. Everybody was acting their hearts out and it’s palpable.
Okay so now that I have had the time to actually think about the lore stream that occured today I will now say:
The end was kind of lackluster.
Like I understand the intended weight of c!Fundy jumping off the edge to get away from c!Wilbur, but I think that it came across more as shock value rather than poignant?
With practically every other canon death, regardless of how well I know the character, they’ve always stuck with me afterwards. Like you can palpably feel the weight of them and the anticipation and the emotion of it all. You get the message they’re trying to send across.
But if the message of Fundy’s second canon death was: “You’ve hurt me, look at the way you’ve hurt me, I want to get away from you”, it honestly would’ve been better conveyed without the death?
It came very left field right in the final five minutes of the stream, and given that it straight up wasn’t a result of c!Fundy’s own inner turmoil but rather just a desire to get away from c!Wilbur, I think that the whole message of the end of the stream could’ve been better conveyed through him just telling c!Wilbur to get away from him, and staring him down as he walked away. Or perhaps by focusing in on the lines “why did you die?” “I was very sad” and explaining to c!Wilbur that while it is terrible he felt that way in his final days, and he empathizes, he still hurt people, and that isn’t justified by how he felt then.
That would’ve hit ten times harder for me, and I think it would’ve been an actual lesson c!Wilbur could’ve learned from, because all I think he learned from this was to avoid apologizing to people because it results in them fucking dying.
I will say, the rest of the stream was phenomenal, and Wilbur and Fundy’s acting was great. I loved everything up until after he said he couldn’t accept the apology (a choice I actually really liked), because after that it low-key went to shit. All together a good stream, it just fumbled the bag at the end.
