Hey hey Log tell me about beeduo presidential era :D
Well, Leo, if you insist, I suppose I have to..
(I am talking about the characters here, lines get a bit blurry for this era because the content creators were becoming friends at the time, but I am looking at it from the perspective of canon)
One of the many things that drives me so insane about Presidency Era Beeduo is that they were able to become so close in such a short amount of time. Ranboo joined the server, and Tubbo gave him a tour, and itâs like- somewhere between there and Doomsday, they formed an incredibly close relationship.
In the midst of all the shit that when down after the prank on Georgeâs house, somewhere along the line, Ranboo and Tubbo just- clicked, with each other. Tubbo was not in a good mental state at all during his presidency, especially after exiling Tommy, but Ranboo was there for him the whole time. Ranboo was a comforting presence for him, someone who was there for him, who he could be himself around.
We can see how much they cared about each other in their actions!
Despite being in competition with each other, they never held any animosity towards each other. If Ranboo won the presidency, he planned to make Tubbo his Vice President. If Tubbo won the presidency, he planned to make Ranboo his Secretary of State.
Tubbo, who is known for being the fucking commander and chief of repressing his emotions, opened up to Ranboo about his concerns about his presidency. Ranboo supported him, and told him he was doing a good job, something that no one else was telling Tubbo. Tubbo thought himself to be a horrible president, but Ranboo genuinely supported him when basically no one else did. Hello?!?!?
And letâs talk about when Ranboo was outed as a traitor.
When Ranboo was outed as a traitor, he expected Tubbo to hate him. He expected the relationship that they had built to be destroyed. When he showed up on Doomsday, he fully expected Tubbo to hate him, or punish or hurt him in some way, but Tubbo acted completely fine. I donât remember his exact wording, but he was legitimately confused by Tubboâs nonchalance, writing something along the lines of âWhy doesnât he hate me?â Even after Doomsday, and Tubbo did nothing against Ranboo, he took Tubbo off of his friends list, assuming Tubbo hated him. Ranboo angrily cursed himself for betraying âthe one person who trusted me the mostâ. Which. Ow. Like. God. God.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Ranboo, Tubbo was 100% on his side. When Quackity brought up the idea of executing Ranboo, Tubbo immediately shut him down, comparing Quackity to Schlatt, which is, you know, basically the worst fucking person to be like in Tubboâs mind. Not only that, but Tubbo threatened the life of Quackity, one of his oldest friends, in Ranbooâs defense. Even after saying that executing Ranboo would be treason, Tubbo brought it up again, pulling out his axe and saying âYouâre not gonna touch Ranboo, though.â He made his point clear. Like!!! He cared so much!!! They had such a close relationship!!! FUCK!!
ALSO. Just. Doomsday. MAN.
As someone who recently re-watched Doomsday from Ranbooâs POV, there are so many little actions that showed his closeness with Tubbo. He moved Squeeks away from where the explosions would be, saying that he had âalready hurt Tubbo enoughâ, so he should at least save Squeeks. He chose Tubboâs side, despite the fact that he believed Tubbo hated him, and he chose Tubbo BECAUSE he didnât want to hurt him again. LIKE. HIS EXACT WORDS. âIâll hurt him again.â GOING INSANE! And he left a sign in front of Tubbo saying âIâm sorry.â
Just- the fact that long before the marriage, they were able to get such a close relationship, and even after what Ranboo assumed would destroy their relationship forever, they were able to get even closer after Presidency Era. Back then, they had no idea that they would fall in love, no idea that they would adopt a child together, no idea that theyâd get married, but they trusted each other in an almost inexplicable way.
