CC!Techno be like: Bro, why is my character the only one that people blame for the festival???

Me: IDK Techno, it’s almost like these were narrative decisions that have been actively explored in the story already and therefore don’t give people the need to discuss them as much.

Like… I agree that his character is not 100% responsible for what happened. He made a bad decision in an impossible situation. But he’s also the only one who’s character has made no acknowledgement of the actual event. Like c!Tommy, c!Wilbur and c!Quackity have all internalized that guilt in different ways and had added it as a point of contention to their interactions with eachother. It’s why c!Tommy and c!Quackity are more protective of c!Tubbo in certain situations, and why C!Wilbur also made it a big plot point to apologize for it. C!Techno is kinda the only character that didn’t really grow from this as a character? So like, yeah it’s no wonder people are often blaming his character, we don’t really gain anything from blaming the other ones??? Every other character has had their plotline with c!Tubbo culminate in something fulfilling or at the very least made up for it? c!Quackity’s culminated by him betraying c!Schlatt THE NEXT DAY. C!Tommy’s culminated during the disc war finale when he refused to let c!Tubbo be the sacrifice play. And C!Wilbur is on track already with his redemption arc and apology(regardless of whether you believe it was genuine). C!Techno is really the only character holding this incident back from putting a pretty little bow on it and calling it resolved. Which is why people are… kinda rightfully… looking at him??? These characters deserve closure. And we know that c!Tubbo will likely forgive c!Techno for this, I genuinely think he should. But forgiveness can’t occur without an apology.
