Foolish avoided Tubbo and Pac hunting him down by a sheer fucking miracle

FOOLISH WENT TO MID THE SAME TIME TUBBO AND PAC DID BUT THEY DIDN'T SEE EACH OTHER

THEY DIDN'T SEE ANYONE IN RED TEAM SQUARE BECAUSE FOOLISH WAS BUYING TEA AT MID

AND TUBBO AND PAC DECIDED TO LEAVE TO GO TO RED BASE BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT FOOLISH WOULD BE THERE RIGHT WHEN FOOLISH WAS HEADING BACK

Because you can see the sort of information he gets: the war changing him and making him into the person he was in prison, and there was that moment of clarity. Like "oh...is that why? That explains it..." And also the way that Bagi explains about all the ways that Federation took from Cellbit, and kept taking and taking

GOD SO COOL LOVE THAT

I could tell Philza tried though, like I noticed earlier he wanted to drop the news on Wil, but it's not easy to drop on anybody especially since Wilbur is clearly already overwhelmed and also just came back, there was hesitation in dropping it on him

And that's what makes Wilbur's accusations so good to me because it's not unfair! They're words said by someone who doesn't have context, who's ignorant and out of touch with the state of things with the residents of the island, who isn't familiar with the harm and hurt and sadness that hangs over the parents and families of the eggs ever since they were gone

But that's Wil's kid! That's his daughter! No one who can suitably fill him in can spare the time to actually tell him the extent of what happened! And whatever explanation they gave him wasn't actually good enough! Because!! Yeah!!! That was vague as hell and didn't answer his question to what people have done!! He was already in the dark about the context of the infiltration and had gotten frustrated from the maze, and now he was given that! How else was he supposed to react? No one was giving him a proper explanation!

And I just lovedddddd Phil's react here too! He's really been popping off with the rp lately!!! Let’s gooooo

Anyways, Phil understandably gets frustrated too! And the accusation and disbelief from Wilbur at the effort they've put to try to get their Kids back pokes at a sore wound that's been festering beneath the facade of calm and groundedness Phil tends to have. He's worried sick, he's always been worried sick and he and everyone else have been doing everything in their power to get their children back only to end up with people getting hurt or punished and whatever else. Of course he blows up! Of course he lashes out! It's unfair to call what they’re doing as uncaring! They care so much! They sacrificed so much for the safety and happiness of their Eggs.

Also the whole infiltration into the presentation also adds to Phil's stress because it's such a precious lead!!! He can't afford to stay back with Wilbur and explain things to him more carefully. He has to be there and figure things out with Cellbit and the rest of them! He has go!! Because it’s that promise of a glimpse of hope that could get them one step closer to understanding where their children went, and how to get them back!

Yeah.

I love the sort of immediate understanding with Wil here after Phil apologises

Like earlier, Wilbur was claiming that he was the acting rationally, that he was treating all this more seriously, that he was trying to put the pieces together while everyone is just having "fun doing the maze"

But here, facing Phil, he shows that immediate understanding and apologises in turn

Because here's the thing, he Knows Phil. Wil Knows what the man is like. He knows that Philza would go to hell and back for his loved ones, that he would do anything to protect them, to make sure they're safe, if even Phil, the most resourceful guy Wilbur knows, hadn't found anything, had lashed out so harshly before...?

OH MY GOD the entire reaction to the mod that lets ghosts spawn after you kill a hostile mob
