God.
I love the QSMP so damn much.
All of the individual storylines, main plot points, and small interactions give me so much life.
It's just this close-knit community of characters that have come to love each other and become fast friends and family.
There's angst and drama and horror and mystery and just about everything else but there is always this core feeling of community and care that has been created.
It's not even exclusive to the server itself either. Seeing all of these different communities come together and get to know each other and become more comfortable with themselves has been so incredible. The streamers themselves have become such good friends they are all planning when they can next meet everyone or travel to someone's home country. It's just incredible.
The world feels so damn negative these days, but here is this Minecraft server actively standing a bright beacon of light. Yes. It's not perfect, but it's incredibly human and very enjoyable to be able to see and interact with.
Every admin and player who has even remotely had a hand in the QSMP has made something truly incredible, and we are shown that every day.
I love the talent of the QSMP fanbase.
I love that the admins and ccs go out of their way to celebrate the fan creators.
They literally spent like an hour and a half watching fan animations and clips. I'd seen a lot of them but there were also ones I had never seen that have made me absoutely insane because holy shit it's all so good.
Also. I just love animations and animatics. I watch so many for every fandom I go into and I will rewatch them over and over and over again. They bring back all the joy and excitement I have over the server without fail every single time. Like Regret makes me insane. Genuinely. The details. The story telling. The original story itself that happened on the server. The talent of the artist too. Like it's just so good all around
GRAHHHHHH
I LOVE FAN ARTISTS AND CREATORS. MINECRAFT SMPS GIVE THEM SO MUCH CREATIVE POWER SINCE ITS LITERAL PIXEL CHARACTERS AND THE ARTISTS TAKE IT AND RUNNNN. THE EGG DESIGNS FROM THE QSMP >>>>>
Q!Phil's love language is knowing his loved ones' mannerisms
He knows Chayanne and Tallulah so well. He knows when it's different admins. Can spot them playing other characters. He knows all over their little mannerisms that everyone else has looked over. The whole time Phil was gone for conventions and filming, no one else quite picked up on Tallulahs maracas and how she uses them
Every event shows how strong the community bond of the QSMP is. The fact that everyone let Etoiles and Phil be the main fighters against the code and mostly played support for them just shows it.
Cellbit and Etoiles made sure that Phil got the chance to kill the fake Chayanne code. They covered him when he got downed and made sure he had enough cover to stay in the fight for as long as he needed.
Everyone also believed Phil instantly. They know and trust Phil and his judgement. Afterwards everyone shared how they saw the little things off about the fake Chayanne and Tallulah as well which shows how much they pay attention to them too.
No one knows just how happy I am Niki and Tubbo joined the QSMP and the characters they have already started to take on.
Phil being gone this week has really given them a chance to prove themselves and their role as Chayanne and Tallulahs godparents. Nikis been very busy lately but Tubbos been on almost every single day since he joined.
Tallulah and Chayanne are two of the most closed off eggs in terms of how often they just hang out on the server. Usually, they log on, do quests with Phil, chill for a bit, and then go back to sleep with occasional times of hanging out with other QSMP members.
Q!Tubbo, since he's been on the most, has allowed for the most Chayanne and Tallulah content outside of Phil doing their quests. Tubbos already given all the eggs blankets permission to just show up and hang out which Tallulah and Chayanne have taken up quite a bit.
I absolutely adore how q!Tubbo treats the eggs. He cares for them so much even though he can't completely protect them and isn't their direct parent. He is instantly trying to include them in his projects when they show up and always chatting with them which is really cool. It's an interesting dynamic to see since everyone's had an egg of their own since just about the start.
Q!Tubbo has similar mannerisms to both q!Wilbur and q!Phil since they are close friends and deemed family by q!Phil. He treats Tallulah and Chayanne very similarly to how q!Wilbur and q!Phil treat them which is something I think both of them needed from a non-parent individual. They both been dealing with the absence of a father this whole time so I'm sure new faces are refreshing to see. There's no expectations or previous understandings that the other islanders have about them.
Q!Tubbo has made sure to take care of them so well. He always pauses to make sure their tasks are done and that they are doing something they want to do or help with. Q!Tubbo also uses nicknames a lot which I love. He calls Chayanne, Chay. Tallulah, sweetie and both of them poultry queen/king/prince which is adorable.
I really want to know Tallulah and Chayannes thoughts on q!Tubbo since they've spoken about how they don't feel the most comfortable being openly themselves around the other QSMP islanders. Tallulah hasn't completely opened up to q!Tubbo and started sassing him like she does q!Phil but I'm sure it's refreshing to have someone new like q!Tubbo focus his attention on her and her brother when they around, making sure they read all the signs, and keep track of them all the time.
It's just such a refreshing dynamic to see for two characters that have been going through it so much lately.
I also just love q!Tubbo in general because he fits right in. He's constantly involving everyone if they want to join. He's also someone who is challenging the Federation constantly in a way not everyone else can because they have the eggs. He's abosultely on Cucuruchos shit list for his shenanigans and he's already started poking holes in the story that the Federation has laid out.
*dramatically clears throat*
One of death family's love languages is nicknames and terms of endearment.
Before I go to bed, here is a late night rant:
Q!Tubbo is such an interesting character. Tubbo, himself, has gotten the full QSMP experience in a way the rest of the new players haven't. We all joked about him having Brazilian energy, but he literally does lmao. He rolled up just like the Brazilians did all that time ago and just made himself completely at home in the story by complete accident.
I do think he got a special chance because Tubbo streams everyday and Phil went to Brighton to film Sorry videos the week after Tubbo joined. Tubbo got the chance to spend time taking care of the eggs and being their primary caretaker for a week in a way none of the other new players have gotten which has shaped his character a fair amount.
He is so invested in the eggs and they aren't even his kids you know. I haven't finished his VOD from today but I saw a clip of him spinning the wheel and the lava dropping on him. He tried to save Chayannes floatie immediately and the despair in his face at watching the lava fall on the items was intense as well. He had those eggs for less than a week and he got to know them in ways that only the rest of the islanders that have been there for MONTHS have.
It's just such an interesting dynamic to see. Q!Tubbo is also the youngest outside of the eggs which plays a lot into his character. He questions q!Fit because q!Fits involvement in other things that he can't share and q!Tubbo doesn't understand that. Q!Tubbo still has an innocence to his character that most of the islanders have lost over time which is really interesting to see.
In general, cc!Tubbo also just gets along really well with everyone so far. He's become a cemented part of the early gang with Fit, Pac, Foolish and the various others that join early in the day. His dynamic with q!Fit and q!Phil has been a lot of fun to watch because he pushes q!Fits character more than most of the islanders have and it's always interesting to see q!Phil with his closest friends/family.
Idk it's just refreshing to see. He's just accidently walked himself into this crazy experience that the QSMP is and immediately got invested. There's a strong level of relatablity there too that hasn't quite been around the same way since the beginning of the egg event.
MISSA IS SENDING ME
Man's known NOTHING for months and is suddenly learning everything.
HE JUST WANTED HIS KIDDDDD AFTER CELEBRATING HIS COUNTRY
He is just losing it and I canttttt
Everyone is so chill and then q!Missa is having a breakdown in the corner. They are getting everyone caught up and ready for potential lore soon too.
