shadowhiveA few last things on celebration now that it’s wrapped up.
It’s kinda hard to get excited about some things because they’re so evasive, share nothing with people at home or when they do there’s just vague concepts. So it’s hard to get too excited about upcoming projects with minimal information.
Having said that I think the show I’m most excited for has become the Acolyte, even though I’ve not seen anything the passion of the people involved shines through. I’m cautiously optimistic about Ahsoka because it looks cool I’m still a bit uncertain about the voice actors being selectively discarded. Then there’s the whole bringing Thrawn back which as a concept I’m not thrilled by either. But I guess we’ll see it could all work really well.
And then there’s Visions which is the other thing I’m most excited about, because, again, the passion of the people involved shines through and the concepts all sound so awesome. Plus we get to see Aardman do Star Wars and it looks like it’ll be so funny!

Last night was the final Dreamsmp stream because of the timing I was only gonna watch a bit but I ended up watching all of Tubbo’s stream (I should’ve gone to someone else later I might watch the vods of someone) but it was kinda full of feels.
I know I came to it towards the end as things winded down but it was quite emotional watching people go to these places and interact with each other. Though it is a shame certain people weren’t there too and did get a chance to be a part of it. (How much of that was by choice on their part I’m not sure)
But the whole thing does feel sad. I think, on my part, it’s because it kinda felt there was a lot of missed opportunities. What was the deal with Foolish and Eret? Eryn becoming a knight, the plan to revive Ranboo (that never went anywhere), Sapnap having the death book. And there’s bound to be other things I can’t think of. It’s a shame that so many cool ideas just didn’t go anywhere. (And of course tales which the last vid was such a cool thing and then it went nowhere too.)
I wonder how much was a result of poor communication, how much was the result of other things coming up and how many didn’t want to when Techno passed. Which is so sad, because the two streams with him I watched (the prison break and saving Micheal) were just so exciting and some of the best stuff.
I’d say the best finales (which I’m so glad we got) were the egg one and the Las Nevadas one, although it’s a shame both left some things hanging (what was the deal with Ranboo randomly in Las Nevadas finale in the afterlife) but also Punz being hot as a villain in Tommys was just so unf.
But yeah it’s so sad it’s over. I’ll miss the summer home and the museum and everything else and I hope the map goes up at some point (seriously, put it up in the store, make it so most/all of the money goes to the sarcoma foundation and everyone would get it).
[And I’m also sure I’m missing some other things I was gonna say about it but it’s left my head]
By contrast the qsmp stream I watched was crazy with Slime’s descent into madness over his egg being accidentally killed by his partner. The thing is it could have gone so dark so easily but it didn’t, primarily because every attempt Slime did to kill the other eggs (in an attempt that it would reset and bring his back) went so wrong. Through a mix of his incompetence, everyone being so well kitted out and, in Philza’s case, made the egg’s home fucking impregnable. Thankfully slime got talked down and now there’s a court case happening (with a sacrifice?) which is just wild.
The whole qsmp has such insane chaotic energy which I love, although I miss a lot because time zones but seeing clips when I wake is mental. And Vegetta and Foolish are so sweet. Hopefully Wilbur is on once the tour is finished because I need to see him and Luzu and Quackity (hopefully the event keeps going so he can be a part of it)
Today, after debating because of weather, I went to the small new Game and got a few of the Star Wars Black series figures in the sale. I got Reva from Obi-Wan, Magistrate Greef from The Mandalorian and a Luke in a fancy box. Alas going was tiring cause I rushed so now I’m a bit tired so I’m just gonna flop, watch stuff and maybe write or game later.

Date: 2023-04-11 01:27 pm (UTC)as for qsmp, I’m so upset I wasn’t able to watch it (can’t they stream earlier pls 😭) because it sounded insane lol. this trial is gonna be hilarious I just know it. (manifesting that rubius shows up bc u didn’t mention him 😔 /lh)

Date: 2023-04-11 02:54 pm (UTC)But yeah there was definitely feels from the ones playing it. Yeah 8 felt so bad for Eryn 🥺 because that first thing he did for it was so well done and made me wanna see more! It definitely felt odd that some people weren’t there (like Sapnap and Foolish) but I’m not too surprised others didn’t. (honestly I’m surprised who we got in there for it)
Awww yeah it was at an odd time! It was honestly so incredibly insane, Slime was losing his mind and it was so wild. And it was almost cartoonish how he kept trying into Phil’s place and couldn’t make a dent in it! I hope he shows up too (he didn’t last night alas) but I love his chaotic energy and when he says ‘my friend!’ It’s so👀👀
