Do people actually think Mike would sympathize with Micheal and feel bad for him and ignore everything he did just like he did for Vanessa because I genuinely believe Mike would beat his face in with a hammer.

the thing about the righteous gemstones is you don’t expect it to be as sweet as it is. but it is a very sweet show. despite everything. despite it all.
Hi! I know I just sent you an ask a few hours ago but uhm. There's something on my mind.
So I've only been into lifesteal for like. 3 weeks? Maybe a bit more or less. Point being is that I don't know anything about the SMPs history other than the couple of videos I watch & what people live blog about season 6 LMAO. Anyway not important I'm just rambling LMAO sorry I get rambly in these.
ANYWAYS. My question is: When did Devotion Duo start? From what I gather it seems it was around season 4? but idk if that's right. All I know is that they'd had to have been together for a while for their relationship to be where it is now.
I just thought I'd asks since their dynamic seems to be fun & all the analytic posts I find about them seem very interesting (also all the art bangs. not a single miss that I've seen so far). So I'm interested in the very start of it and how it was.
Thought I'd ask you since you seem like the Devotion Expert around these parts /silly.
technicallyyyyy they go all the way to s2 when zam was added and have teamed at least partially Every Season since then, but due to s2 vods missing + a lot of current fandom members (including me) getting in during s4 + Their Arc happening then, s4 is veryyy popular with them.
short version, I have a list of vods going over one arc that revolves around them here
what i mean by Their Arc:
a small break down of s4 with them, zam first got back on ls about a month late so everyone else was already in teams, he kinda just gravitated towards mapicc and ro (teammate awesome) before officially joining them (vod here, around 3:38. zam works in a lot of their plans, he was a part of the prison (a short event where TA locked players in and offered a reward to get them out), medusa (lead by roshambo and helped by mapicc & zam, he worked to turn spawn building into obituary and covered his tracks by trying to seem like they were the ones searching for the culprit), and most notably, dupe war. dupe war was a project by spoke invloslving mass during of items and gear, claiming to use it to defeat another team (APO, not crazy important here) (in reality it was involved with wormhole stuff but fell through). as lot of dupe war wasn't streamed so we don't know exactly zams thought process through it all, but at the end of the war when all exploits were meant to be destroyed, mapicc revealed he and spoke hid away some stashes. zam was acting like this was fine while they were there but spent a Considerable amount of time after they had left debating taking these dupe stashes, ultimately deciding they would be best in his hands.
this was the catalyst for castle arc, an arc revolving around devotions and affecting them Heavily.
mapicc saw it as a betrayal, and did not take kindly. when they had their team awesome meeting (commonly referred to as Home sweet home, hsh for short) to confront zam, numerous times mapicc mentions wishing he could go with what zam said but no longer trusting him. I Highly recommend watching this vod if not any others, it is the single vod is have watched the most. I also have a transcript of it here (don't mind the typos, I still haven't gotten around to editing it)
and All of that is just lead up to castle arc, where mapicc hunts zam down again and again and again. while not part of castle arc, over the course of almost the whole season mapicc finds 4(mightve been 5?) of zams bases, it's a scene of hatred and carnage and violence.
and yet.
they still end the season together.
mapicc still choses zam over anyone else, over ro who had been by his side the entire time, over spoke who gave him power, he wanted to end the server with zam as the chaos of wormhole was concluding.
they really are a despite everything situation. anyone else would have refused to work together after what they had been through, but that wasn't even the first time they fought together after the betrayal. they have this constant yearning to be by each other's sides, whether that be for or against.
a very important quote for them, the source of their name, "and all of my devotion turns violent"
soooo that's s4!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna be honest I don't know s5 devotions that well (would recommend asking @derww about them if you want to know more) as for s6 there's just. so many small things. mapicc wanting zam to come back to fighting after refusing for so long, being so excited when he agrees. early empire streams he was wishing he was teaming with zam again. zam Constantly bringing up mapicc yesterday when thinking about teaming with derap. like he did Not need to do that. it's so amazing the way their devotion has evolved.
I've had issues in the past with links not embedding so also putting them down here in order just in case

idr if i said it before in my ooooold old post about percival and his failing to question the grail but ig it bears repeating that the question of purpose is ironic when it comes to dna parsifal snowfield compared to his inspirational roots. it's his depression and war ptsd and dystopian blood debt beliefs it's the lingering metaphorical and straight up physical/chemical effects of the suppression serum it's the enormity of the world and its injustice and his learned helplessness and deep cynicism that makes his first response almost always 'what's the point?' he questions with a defeatist's edge. why even try why even bother especially when he's already a ghost, the living dead, a hollow shell of the innocent person he used to be with a body turned completely foreign to him. so why bother trying. he has no fight, no sense of resistance and that's his sin. between himself and blues it can't be understated that he was the one who told blues to get over any optimistic nonsense and to just simply accept the fact they were monsters and prisoners and mindless, soulless tools, in order to protect himself and give up to what he assumed was an immutable role while blues willingly flung himself into physical danger over and over again; was punished with brutality and poison and the electric chair but still kept trying to fight for what was true and right (from escape to the light of their shared theatrical dreams) all the way up to the very end. the literary percival's fatal fault is silence but parsifal snowfield's fault is indifference and inaction. the metaphorical silence, subtly shown too in habits like the way he stopped singing after the death of his mother as a very young boy or the way that he sulks and shies away from others without much attempt to reach out/interact at first with anyone in the theater. to better himself he has to break out of any ice. he has to realize he's capable of obtaining something he can actually protect AND he has to realize he's even capable of protecting in the first place. he has to realize his own autonomy and affirm that it isn't purposeless, that even if his 'dreams are impossible to accomplish' that he still has weighted choices with consequence to make. who are you? what are you doing? where are you trying to go?

i excluded him because he doesn't show hope behaviors, he shows rage behaviors and ghosts rage consistantly due to his prince title. princes interact with their aspect through the inverse's behavior, which is how they exist as an active descructive class.
