My Lore Thoughts - Tumblr Posts
This arc for C!Wilbur is so gutwretching. Each "apology" gets sadder and sadder. I don't think anyone is ready for what they could possibly do when C!Wilbur apologizes to C!Niki or even if/when he apologizes to C!Tommy especially if someone actually explains what C!Dream did. C!Wilbur thinks the current state of L'Manberg was from his TNT alone and he doesn't even know that Technoblade attacked L'Manberg right after his death. C!Wilbur still only has half the story with small, happy chunks from a ghost version of himself that would forget the sad moments. I look forward to see how his character is concluded but man do these streams hit hard.
After today's lore and with the grip this song has on me right now, I propose Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush is the anthem to c!crimeboys.
Think about it, C!Wilbur got pissed when C!Tommy revealed the truth about Exile ans how he felt about exile. C!Wilbur didn't know that would ever happen to C!Tommy when he was dead. He still loves his brother deeply. Enough to go face his abuser with him and give him even a little peace of mind and freedom back.
Reversely, C!Tommy would have done anything for C!Wilbur to have not died during November 16th. He loves his brother a lot and would do anything for him even though he is the younger sibling.
It's really interesting to be watching Tommy's VODs after Novemeber 16th. Previously I had only watched Techno's and then just seen clips and heard about the other events like Tommy's exile.
The VOD the day after he and Ranboo burned down George's house is so interesting knowing what happens. Like New L'Manberg was doomed from the beginning. When Tubbo gave Tommy probation, everyone literally made fun of him for it which kinda shows that no one cared what had happened except Dream. George didn't care his house got burned down. He was just annoyed he had to rebuild it. Dream was the only one up in arms about it.
Like yeah Tommy messed up and shouldn't have burned the house down but look at everything that's happened on the server to his house. Also did Tommy even know George was the king canonically? Like I know it because Techno went to fight him when it happened but it's never mentioned in Tommy's POV until he burns his house.
It's very interesting to watch the story build despite knowing the ending and parts of it.
