That's my secret, Cap: I'm always tired.

This of course would come with quite a bit of like, tactical gear and protective measures. Gas masks and goggles, helmets and protective vests, sturdy boots and gloves… this carries over into weather acting in extremes, too. Violent storms, harsh weather conditions in regard to snowy biomes and deserts, all a result of just how much is happening due to redstone machines. I rlly enjoy messing around with the concept of s2 having highly polluted air, given how the machines that have made up a generous portion of s2’s development work. Speaking of… earthquakes and the like are deffo not uncommon. Eventually you get used to fighting on uneven ground or running with the earth shaking beneath you, but for a while it’s really jarring. There’s a learning curve.

When it comes to technology, I also think that aside from communicators/gamma toggles/schematics/etc., redstone weapons and machines are the next most advanced. Comms can vary in shape, size, and uses but lowkey divorcesteal’s redstone weapons and machines suffer from the same affliction Divorcesteal builds do, which is: go big or go home. They’re massive, complex, and scary… but also very fragile. Most will explode if you look at them wrong. There’s occasionally the occurrence of technology crossing server borders which means it’s a device that probably has similar capabilities to someone else’s comm, but is like built in such a way it just cannot be replicated in the same manner as divorce (see the ski-goggles I give my cube when they’re slacking off and playing a different game). If these break they’re broken for GOOD. Irreparable. I think another example of this would be the way players like Tanya and evi4 play Genshin while logged on… probably through a separate handheld device that is not their communicators. There’s probably also things like cameras that follow streamers around or someth similar to those like. Cameras in sunglasses. That street interviewers use. As per divorcesteal being streamed/recorded often. Lowkey for the lols if Divorcesteal could import things from other servers the highest import it could possibly have wouldn’t be something like explosives or weapons or even medical supplies as expected. but instead fucking. Spyware. Lowkey a budding surveillance state but it’s ok bc it’s also an active warzone.

Someth else that poses a question is like what a chunk ban would look like, but I kinda like to lean towards it just being someth that cannot be comprehended, like those images where every item blends together. Idk. They’re such complex beasts and there’s a lot of strange and unique ways to make them so they’re really open-ended design wise. This kind of also ties into how entity inflicted lag due to excessive villagers/invis item frames would have to be acknowledged but unfortunately both are difficult to like, create an explanation for. I think sometimes concepts like these just have to be things that a character cannot describe, cannot even really truly comprehend, and it’s ok to leave it like that.

I also think divorcestealers. As a species. Are like pretty resoundingly superstitious, albeit in like. Strange, unique ways. Not many superstitions are shared cross-team, HOWEVER. The two greatest superstitions to hit the divorcesteal psyche would be someth along the lines of “a :3 :3 stream means this person is betraying their team and if you don’t acknowledge it as that it will actually happen” and the mentality that inactive players are always watching/around, but they’re just out of sight. Personal superstitions are usually held close to the player and not shared, however to give insight using my cube as an example it would be somewhere along the lines of like “wear jade for good fortune” or “I am what is bringing death to all my teammates” and there’s like no in between lowkey. Extremes.
