Kinda Theory - Tumblr Posts
I’m hyped for Tommy’s stream tonight cause I’ll be honest, even though it’s been alluded to, I don’t think he’ll die. From a story standpoint it would be a pretty shit death considering everything he’s gone through, so I think that somehow, something or maybe even someone will stop him.
As for who might stop him, my top 3 guesses (starting with most likely) are Technoblade, Philza or Ghostbur. Anyone have any other guesses?
Sam seems pretty insistent on keeping Tubbo in the dark about the prison. I’m not saying Tubbo would be put in there since it seems very unlikely as Dream said it was “someone he can’t kill” and yes, maybe it could apply still to Tubbo since he’s on his last life. But, if the prison was for Tubbo I feel like they wouldn’t create as many defences as there have been alluded to.
Maybe Sam wants to keep the defences of the prison secret from Tubbo because the prison has been made to contain someone Tubbo knows and Sam doesn’t want him having knowledge about the prison so whoever it’s meant to contain can’t escape.
I think it’s pretty safe to say that Foolish isn’t the mysterious 5th member of the Antarctic Syndicate, Harpocrates purely because of how Phil and him interacted. Which leaves a few candidates mainly: Dream (because him and Techno have worked together in the past), Puffy (Because of her hatred for the egg), Hannah (because of her association with roses) or Callahan (because he never talks and could keep secrets).
Personally I don’t think it will be Hannah or Puffy since when Techno talked about who it was he used ‘he’. So looking at the male members I don’t believe it could be: George, Sapnap, Sam, Jack, Connor, Vikk, Lazar, Charlie, Eret, HBomb or Purpled purely because of the lack of solid evidence.
However looking back at who Harpocrates is [god of silence and secrets in religion] and how he is symbolised [symbol is a rose] makes me think there is a possibility of him being Karl. In Tales From The SMP when Karl is in the Inbetween there are always Wither Roses also he has been shown to keep secrets close to his chest even from Sapnap and Quackity who are his fiancés.
Feel free to talk about you’re ideas I like reading them (you’re all really funny sometimes!) and if I end up being wrong then it is what it is.
EDIT: FOLLOW UP post about Karl’s connection to Kinoko Kingdom
Right so someone pointed out that Karl founded Kinoko Kingdom which I guess would technically count as a government so thanks for pointing that out!
Anyway, my explanations for this isn’t 100% fleshed out but here we go. Techno and Phil made it clear that anyone in the Syndicate can leave anytime they want, no one can force them to stay. Another fact is that both the Syndicate and Karl don’t like the The Egg, Techno see’s it as a government and Karl protected Quackity from Bad by asking for him to meet him away from the egg. I think this is what led to Karl talking and then possibly working with Techno.
About Kinoko Kingdom I think either Karl joined without telling Techno about it (more likely) or Techno knows about it but since their only common goal is to deal with the The Egg, Karl’s planning to leave when The Egg is gone.
Hopefully this makes sense, I would’ve put this in the original post but I didn’t have it fleshed out and I was a little stumped. Hopefully this clears up my theory/ramble a bit more!
I know I made one follow up post but I decided to make one more since when I looked at Twitter I was reminded of a few images and a more recent one.
Going back to the wither roses and who Karl is often found with them, we have seen them when Karl wasn’t around, of course they appeared near L’manberg but, there was also one in the Syndicate base:

Of course it might just be a choice of decoration but there is more. When Hannah returned to the server and went to her house and found it covered in blood vines the roses around her house had changed too, they were all white.

and in the latest Tales From The SMP poster what do we see near the crown? :

A wither rose and a white flower.
And that’s kinda it! If I think of anything else I’ll be sure to add it but ya thanks for looking at my ramble!

I just realized,
In the Syndicate room, the ender pearl stasis chamber still has ender pearls in them. What if that's why Techno was so calm when he got "trapped" in the cell?
Techno's no fool, he literally asked Quackity if he was lying to him. So I think it's safe to safe Techno would've taken the necessary measures just encase it did turn out to be a trap (and it did turn out to be a trap).
So, imagine this: Dream writes down everything he knows about the prison and then Techno gets someone (most likely Phil since he will be going live the next day) to flip the lever and get him out. Which maybe would lead to Dream getting out of prison.
Sidenote: Image Sam and Quackity reaction if they lower the lava and see Techno is gone (and that they have royally pissed him off XD)
Never will be able to think of how to end these so, bye!
