Somewhere in another universe they were making chemistry and rockets and playing minecraft

RUNNING OFF INTO THE UNDERWORLD IS ITS OWN COMFORT, AIN’T IT?

this is what happens when there are only 3 characters (based on the meme by @verquilla)

There should be more Slimeking content hahahaha

Also this

avery:

avery keeps a small slime as a pet in minecraft

if he was an animal, he would be a dog

his favorite subject is chemistry but he's pretty bad at it

he's mechanically gifted at minecraft

when he was younger, avery wanted to go pro in fortnite, but he was never good enough

when asked what college courses der and avery would take, wifies said avery likes botany and biology

avery likes hugs

avery doesn't like the color yellow

he skateboards for fun

avery had a pretty nuclear family and he grew up in a pretty good household

he likes music with lyrics, specifically alt rock and 70's rock

avery rolls around a lot while he's sleeping

avery likes wearing loafers

he likes all sorts of colors, but his favorite color is green

avery is a fan of the lucky block mod

avery is a good texter

he played roblox as a kid, but less so now

avery is goated at pvp

avery plays hypixel

avery's favorite festive drink is warm milk

avery likes capri suns

wifies sees avery as either infp or esfp, but he's not completely sure

avery is very idealistic/morally driven

derek:

if der were an animal, he would be a squid

he'd end up at the gates in every universe

his favorite color is royal red

derek had a full ride merit scholarship, but he ended up dropping out of college because he found it unfulfilling

his parents made him play piano at a young age and he quit after he moved out

he does freelance commission work (tinkering and coding) because he didn't want to work in an office and he wanted funds to tinker

der censored his name in his footage because he didn't want it to tie back to him, wanting it to be impossible to find out who he was so no one would have to see what's behind the gate (or, from the horse's mouth, wifies just wanted a way to subvert expectations…)

when asked what college courses der and avery would take, wifies said der likes robotics

the smoothies in der's mini fridge are specifically soylent

his hobby is making little robots and "random thingamabobs"

der was fluent in 5 languages before he gained infinite knowledge, then he was fluent in all of them after the fact

der was raised by a single mother and he has a good relationship with just her

he like vocal-less music, specifically house and jazz

der is an iguana person (over being a snake person)

der likes minecraft mods like create and "those insane rocketship ones"

der can take like 3 days to respond to a text with a sentence

he doesn't care for pvp

der plays survival

der's favorite festive drink is tea

(when asked what he thought about kiy) he didn't really believe in the supernatural, but he's most definitely scared

wifies sees der as either istp, istj, or intp

der is very pragmatic

both:

they don't have specific canonical nationalities, ages, or appearances

they would both be a little late to a party

this ⬇️

but another thing that makes them fundamentally who they are is also their compassion and determination. i think it's also worth questioning if why they are so passionate about what's been going is because of those preexisting issues, because they both want companionship and purpose in life and this whole urgent situation suddenly gives them that, and it's through this situation that their definitively best traits come shining through.

they already sound incredibly fond of each other, d3rlord3 especially to avery in dawtde. (i could talk ages about how d3rlord3 always says the right thing to avery, maybe half credit to the infinite knowledge thing.) they mesh with each other very well, you can't help but wonder if the very shape of their arms were made to hold the other. they were so good together, however short that period was, however concerningly sacrificial they could be for each other.

their issues made them the perfect victims. their issues were why and how they met, their issues might even be why they got together so well. but in a normal life, they would have never even glanced at each other.

The Princess and her Knight.

i recently downloaded the sfawtde/dawtde map after finishing the series and explored it with my partner (@calamitycoalesce), i wanted to document some cool things we found/some things that weren't seen in the webseries!

starting off, not very impressive, but the path to the right of the crossroads is a dead end. i believe in the original series, d3rlord3 breaks through it to get back to the stripmines, but this must be something in wifies' world only, as i could not find that stripmine room!

two interesting things in the hastur village/the village where d3rlord3 originally finds the book writing about the king in yellow's arrival, firstly is this added easter egg underneath the fountain that has both d3rlord3 and avery's skins, as well as a spyglass in the middle (the spyglass on the map can be dropped to return you to the lobby, so i'm assuming it's a hint at that for any stuck players)

the second interesting thing is within the book itself- in the original series, the word at the end of the sentence 'the king is coming, my (blank)' is censored... it actually just says 'ass' lol

moving on to the places seen in dawtde! the top of the tree on the mountains, as d3rlord3 asks avery to go to, really is blank. i believe he goes there originally anyway and you get to see it there, but to see it from an aerial view is pretty interesting too

in the caverns that avery gets chased into (where he leaps down the cliff with all the lights), he actually runs right past some really neat, freaky-looking tombs. here are two screenshots i took of them, they are lining the path all the way to the bottom

this might be obvious to the people watching, but i thought this was interesting. in the original series, it's probably a little infuriating watching avery blatantly ignore the carpets in the directions of arrows... until you realize that they all just point to the middle of the 'town' in the orchards. as far as i know, this hint doesn't really lead anywhere. maybe it was trying to tell avery to tower up in the middle? we dug around the center and looked in spectator mode but did not see anything. it's a little more obvious when you look from an aerial point of view!

there's a bunch of these blank books that close themselves automatically in the void town, they don't have page numbers either, interestingly

more interestingly, underneath the void town, we found what we assume to be some sort of unused asset! judging by the wool, i'm guessing it was either unfinished and didn't get put into use or was put into use somewhere else and i just missed it. worth noting that it's right next to where the gate is. here's two shots of it

speaking of which, there is a TON of rooms we don't get to see very well in the videos that are just absolutely stunning. a favorite of mine is this hanging angel room in the canals

heading into the church, i was really curious to see what (if anything) was behind the censors we see in avery/d3rlord3's videos! unfortunately... the pages are blank lol, you can see them all up to 11 here

another really neat thing we don't get to see is the underneath of the floating chained island! the amount of detail in these maps is absolutely incredible, there sincerely is too much to capture in one single post

unfortunately i didn't get to explore the library too much since it lagged horrifically badly on my pc, but from what i could see there wasn't too much different- instead of each book at a table being different, they're all one passage copied over all 4 books! they also aren't complete, beyond the first page, they're padded with keysmash

this alternate structure i don't think we get to see in the red waste!

for some reason there are two gates in the fractal world! i know one is not the entrance because you spawn on top of a fractal, so i'm not sure why there's two

finally, the 'canon' names for these worlds- they may help someone lol

that's everything interesting i found! someone has probably made a more comprehensive post, but thank you for reading if you made it this far c: if anyone wants me to explore anything specific in these worlds, please let me know and i'd be happy to report any findings!
