One Day Im Going To Animate Technos Theseus Speech, But As Techno Retells It Im Going To Include The

one day im going to animate techno’s theseus speech, but as techno retells it im going to include the fact that theseus kidnapped a child and tried to kidnap a goddess and abandoned his wife so athens exiled him. like, there’ll be a pause and the music will continue and those scenes will show up, and then techno’s speech will continue because like

i know that techno is a good bloke who isn’t obessed with greek mythology, but theseus’ tale was a cautionary tale about hubris - most greek heroes are stories about good people who get too cocky and fall because of arrogance - he’s meant to be sympathetic to an ancient auidence, not a modern one.

this probably doesnt make sense im tired

I would like to put in my input.

Quackity and Fundy are saying how Tubbo is turning into Schlatt but I don’t see it.

What I see is Tubbo turning into Dream.

A guy who just wants peace and puts his server/nation first even if it means he’s seen as a villain.

WOOOOOOO!!!

I KNEW TUBBO WOULD MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE!!

TUBBO MAKES A STAND FOR HIMSELF!

(Also please keep in mind they are just acting and to not hate on Tubbo.)

Hi again, I just wanna say thank you for all the likes and reblogging on my posts tonight. I know I say thank you a lot but, it really does mean a lot to me that people either like or just find my rambling interesting 😊

I'll be posting my thoughts on (character) Tommy and Tubbos friendship in the morning since I wanna check it and make sure it makes sense since I really do find their character dynamic interesting!

Thanks again for tonight, I am genuinely grateful for the likes and reblogs. Goodnight! (or good morning depending where you are)

Okay, okay, it took me a good two hours to figure out what the hell Tubbo was up to with his Arc, but I guess I finally got it.

First, he is still angry with Tommy for putting everyone in L'manburg at danger and avoiding any responsibility. Tommy lied, denied everything, twisted the facts, and finally made a terrible non-apology. He was one hundred percent himself when everyone asked him to be literally anything else.

Second: "The only thing I care about" hit way too hard. Let's add "I never wanted you for president" and we will get a recipe for model communication problems.

Third and most importantly: Tommy's exile was a show of power. Not for Dream - for L'manburg. Primarily for Fundy and Quackity.

Tubbo is well-liked, kind, helpful and always there when he is needed, but not respected as president. People ask him for his opinion, then ignore it completely, shout him over and take advantage of every moment of his hesitation.

Tommy, by contrast, despite being labeled "loud stupid child", has a lot of charisma and people want to follow him, even if his plan is stupid (Third and a half: his plan was stupid.). Quackity and Fundy may have been furious with him, but they joined him almost immediately after he started blackmailing Dream, leaving Tubbo alone.

Tommy's a good VP. But only if he has someone who can control him and keep him in check.

I think Tubbo finally realized he didn't have that power. They balance perfectly as friends but not as leaders, and as long as Tommy is around, Tubbo will always be in his shadow, even with a higher rank.

Tubbo isn't next Schlatt. He's trying his best and he actually care about L'manburg. To the point, that he chooses it over his friend. And we may consider it morally wrong from the perspective of ordinary people, but that's exactly what leaders should do.

Tl; dr: Tommy's exile was the only way L'manburg would finally have a good leader.

Can I understand Tubbo? Yes.

Do I agree with him? Fuck no, I'm Tommy's apologist and I feel VERY betrayed right now!
