Thinking About How C!wilbur Never Really Made A Permanent Home For Himself After L'manberg Because It

thinking about how c!wilbur never really made a permanent home for himself after l'manberg because it was His Legacy and His Thing and then it got taken away from him

thinking about how c!quackity was intrinsically involved in the destruction of wilbur's l'manberg but even still wilbur didn't take issue with his involvement

thinking about how as soon as wilbur found out about las nevadas he wanted to join quackity in it

thinking about how the first real venture wilbur made to regain influence after his revival was a direct competition/rivalry with quackity

thinking about how the past mirrors the future or something and they will always be drawn apart and together like a newton's cradle that will never run out of momentum, crashing together then pushing each other away over and over and everything else is collateral damage because they are both each other's obsession and destruction and nothing else matters to them but their dance

c!ranboo coming back from death like he crawled out of hell itself, their clothes washed of color and presence, their hair a matted fucking mess, and the inability to stay together as a person. aimsey going in for a hug because bloom doesn't know the rules of this world and is still getting used to it and ranboo immediately moves out of the touch as if one of their oldest friends tried to maim them. nobody knows what's going on.

c!ranboo starts hanging around tommy more. he's not replacing time with tubbo with tommy although they are afraid they haven't talked to their husband in so many fucking years although for the beloved of his life it's only been two months but tommy is the one who. gets it. ranboo comes back from hell and tubbo looks at him like he's trying to remember someone put them there, techno can't look at them, and aimsey looks at them as if she's meeting them for the first time and maybe bloom is but it just makes ranboo want to crawl right back to hell.

tommy's the only one who looks at ranboo. and sees the same person. maybe that's good and maybe that's bad but tommy's the only one who looks at them and sees ranboo.

okay actually i am not letting go of the newton's cradle thing from my last post and i want to expand on it

c!tntduo is just that - they're like a newton's cradle with only two balls and it never loses momentum because they ARE their own momentum, it's like instead of losing momentum every time they hit each other they grow stronger and stronger

and if you try to take one and hold it, keep it away from the other, you WILL eventually drop it and it will come back with more force than ever and restart the cycle all over again (see: wilbur's revival)

and because they are so strong and the cycle is so intense and unstoppable ANYTHING that gets in their way will just end up collateral damage and eventually either destroyed or tossed to the side so they can continue their dance (have you ever put your finger in a newton's cradle? dont)

they will continue crashing together and pushing away and repeating over and over and over again until the world takes them too far away to return to each other, and considering even death itself couldn't permanently keep wilbur away, it would take a lot to take them apart

they feed off of each other and fuel each other while simultaneously making each other infinitely worse because they are obsessed with each other while also destroying each other, an everlasting dance of testing their limits and testing each OTHER because gods forbid anything happens to them aside from the other

because otherwise the world itself will become the third ball in the middle of that newton's cradle and it will not survive the force of their obsession

they are saving each other and destroying each other and repairing each other and healing and loving and hating and purely obsessed with each other in their own kind of rhythm

the laws of physics cannot stop the newton's cradle if it itself redefines them

YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS

More GOOD OMENS

I love that the fandom has moved on from “Crowley and Aziraphale are angstily pining after each other, devastated and heartbroken” and moved to “Crowley and Aziraphale are the bitchiest and most passive aggressive divorced couple only communicating via their lawyers (Nina and Maggie)”
