Okay! I Know Im Not Big On Here But, Before Anyone On The SMP Streams, Allow Me To Remind A Few Groups

Okay! I know I’m not big on here but, before anyone on the SMP streams, allow me to remind a few groups of people:

Do not attack Tubbo if he does exile Tommy and don’t send hate towards anyone involved, they are just roleplaying. If you do you attack them, you will lose your knee caps privileges :)

Thank you for reading my fandom service announcement, and remember: make promises, not threats :)

In Dream’s defense, if I had a wedding and AFTER the objections my best friend shouted “OBJECTION!!!!!” way too late, then gave me a chicken, pulled me behind a pillar and the kissed me…

I’d freak out too! My fight or flight instic would activate and I would just yeet myself out of this uncomfortable situation.

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.)

... Okay I know I said I would post this yesterday... but time is just a construct and isn’t real!

Morning! I hope you’ve had a great day or night, If not don’t worry it’ll get better! Like I said I just wanted to talk about Tommy and Tubbo’s friendship and how we got to where we are in the plot. I won’t waste your time so let’s just start. 

Also keep in mind that they are just playing characters and Tubbo and Tommy are still good friends!

(Also I just realised someone who I've followed for a while and think is genuinely funny reblogged one of my posts and I'm so fucking happy, thank you so much you made my day!) 

Okay so in the DreamSMP, Tommy and Tubbo arguably have the strongest friendship, like a dynamic duo. But I think everyone at this point knows what has happened in their most recent streams if not, go watch the VOD’s since I don’t want to cause spoilers for people who haven’t seen the VOD’s but TLDR: Tommy fucked up and Tubbo isn’t happy with him. 

With it came kinda a divide in the fandom on who was in the right and who was in the wrong. I already made it clear I agree with the Tubbo side of the fandom in this since when he called Tommy out on being selfish I 100% agreed with him also, to be blunt Tommy’s characters was just acting like a over confident dick. I get that Tommy’s character has suffered a lot and deserves some happiness but, he just acted reckless and also dragged Tubbo into a deeper mess then he was already in.

At the start of the war, as in when it was just Dream vs Tommy (feels like a long time ago actually) Tubbo could’ve easily backed out since it really had nothing to do with him but, he decided to help because of how close him and Tommy were. I wanna bring something up I said: “Through most of the story Tubbo has been the most calm and rational as well as has arguable sacrificed a lot for Tommy and when it came time for Tommy to finally repay Tubbo he basically spat in his face and showed that at his worst Tommy can be incredible selfish.” and even now I stand by that! Tubbo lost his wooden house after Dream burnt it down (during the war Tommy had a hand in starting), he spent hours collecting materials and was killed multiple times (in the same war Tommy had a hand in starting). 

Even Tommy couldn’t seemingly think of anything notable he had done for Tubbo since all he said was that he had put his disc’s aside for 2 conflicts he had a hand in starting “I put them to the side every other time when there was a crazy man when there was a dictator every time” he and Wilbur chose to have the election. Tubbo even brought it up himself “You couldn't do one thing for me! You couldn't do one just one thing and it was for your own good” and even when Tubbo was upset with Tommy and was proven that he only cared about his disks Tubbo still tried to help him get out of a bad situation which falls in line with who he his as a person. I will admit there are possibly some moments where Tommy did do something for Tubbo but, either they were too minor to remember or they never happened (really if anyone can think of anything give me a heads up, I don’t want to sound like a bigger moron.)

Speaking about personality, I’ve seen people bring up the fact that Tommy would never exile Tubbo, and ya! 100% fair and valid point Tommy needs Tubbo as much as Tubbo needs Tommy but, bring up the stream again Tubbo said: “so you know what if the if the roles were reversed as you said (...) you wouldn't exile me because I would have actually listened to you and done what you said” Tubbo has pretty much always made an effort to listen to his friends, and to help them but like I said “You can only push a person so far before they push back” Tubbo’s character has listened for a while and has finally pushed back against Tommy.

I feel like this has started to become a “Bullying TommyInnit’s character post” I don’t mean that I just started typing and here we are. So before it does turn into bullying I should move on. Now, I know when it comes to who is morally right between them, there isn’t really a clean cut answer. While Tommy has proven himself to be incredibly selfish at his worst, Tubbo has done things that could make him look like bad friend but, in my opinion he hasn’t reached his lowest point.

... Soooo I don’t really know how to end something like this, I mostly have short responses and not long carefully typed out ones. I’m sorry if I sounded harsh during this I just started typing and wasn’t thinking fully. Thank you for reading!

(By the way please keep in mind that no matter if Tommy does get exiled please don’t hate on Tubbo also, they are just playing characters at the and they are still friends. )

people are really shaming tubbo apologists on twt rn

tubbo’s just a kid left to run an entire nation where everyone he allowed into the cabinet constantly undermines, ignores, laughs at, or reprimands his every decision. tubbo is just a kid who was pulled into a high position of authority with no help, no pointers and no guide.

all tubbo ever wanted was peace. he never wanted wars or conflict or exile. he wanted new l’manberg to be their new beginning. he wanted to be able to run the nation alongside his best friends and create a place that would bring honor to wilbur’s name and bring happiness to its residents.

but in an instant his cabinet mates are willing to turn on him, to yell and scream and lecture and question his authority. no one respects tubbo because he’s a kid, a kid who just wants to live a normal life with tommy, his best friend, but can’t because tommy needs to get back his discs, and will do whatever it takes to do so. even tarnish the name of new l’manberg forever just to get a chance at holding them as his own once more.

and now tubbo’s painted as the bad guy, the “new jschlatt” all because he’s a misguided child who has strong morals and goals but can never be taken seriously because everyone thinks he’s incapable of getting the job done right.

he exiled tommy because he knew that they couldn’t win against dream. even if they got techno involved, dream and techno together could manage to burn l’manberg to the ground. techno still can’t be trusted, and dream is too strong for them to fight. tubbo knew that exiling tommy was the only way to ensure l’manberg’s safety as well as tommy’s. but as with every decision tubbo makes, he gets reprimanded and shamed and shouted at.

so yes, i’m a tubbo apologist because he’s a fucking sixteen year old running a country with no prior knowledge of how to do that, no aid or help in figuring out the ins and outs of being a president. he still cares about tommy, of course, he couldn’t just stop caring about his best fucking friend.

but i’m also a tommy apologist, which people seem to advocate for more, probably because tommy is supposed to be our protagonist, the one whose always fighting for the right cause, no matter how insane it might seem.

tommy is a child too, a child brought up during war times, raised with the idea that anything is okay during war, murder, arson, robbery. he was raised in anarchy.

tommy’s fought so many battles and yet he’s still so young. he knows the horrors of war as much as some of the oldest members of the server. he’s seen it all, literally.

tommy watched his older brother die at the hands of his father. he had his own eldest brother turn on him and threaten to kill him for being a hero. he’s had his best friend exile him with little (shown) remorse. he’s forced to coexist with the ghost of his deceased brother who barely remembers the things he had done when he was alive.

through it all, tommy keeps fighting, because that’s all he’s ever known. he survived wars and betrayals and losses and victories. he flourishes in the chaos, and goes mad during the calm. that’s why he cannot bear the times after war, when new nations are supposed to bud and blossom and grow. because he’s only know destruction and conflict, so he makes up for it by griefing houses and public buildings, creating tension between nations and causing problems that his friends get tied into resolving.

he’s a sixteen year old boy, raised through war and tyranny. a sixteen year old boy who has been exiled twice, assumed a traitor by his best friend, mocked and punished and hurt by those he loves. tommy is a fucking child who just wants to be happy for once in his goddamn life, and he thoroughly believes this can be achieved by getting back his discs. so that’s all he wants, and will stop at nothing to win them back.
