jimmy solidarity doesn't die first? okay. instantly, someone is dropped to yellow, a wither AND a warden are set loose on the surface, two out of three red names permadie, multiple people lose lives in the ensuing battle, the ground is torn up, animals die, it looks like an apocalypse event happened at spawn, and martyn inthelittlewood (arguably one of the scariest people on the server) starts a villain arc.

and now.

and the work with pepito in it doesn't even have them in it. they're just tagged for no reason.

there is an ao3 admin who actively watches the qsmp and has preemptively set character tags for the new eggs. thats so funny. whoever you are i love you.

its the way that martyn is known for devoting himself to a single person and taking as much of the heat and horror off of them as possible at the cost of himself and his wellbeing. the watchers dont want the canary curse to be broken. jimmy is just following his normal schedule of dying and dying and dying except this time martyn is forcing his way in too soon and dying just seconds before.

im just. imagine if the same thing happens for permadeaths. imagine the reaction if martyn and jimmy died at basically the same time except martyn's death message was just before jimmy's. the canary curse is broken, not in some big way where jimmy wins the season or 5v1s an entire team, but through the angry clawing furious devotion of a friend. martyn cant just fight off the forces of the universe with ease but he can do the thing he has always been good at: fighting like an animal and edging his way in despite all odds. he can't make jimmy win, but he sure as hell can make sure he doesn't lose. and maybe things will get better for him after that.

its the way tallulah was in the middle of writing a sign, her most prominent form of communication. it's how she was frantically scribbling something down to phil and was downed during it. it's how she died right next to the other two, even when chayanne was trying to get to them. it's how she's only been on this planet for a week, less, and already has died and come back to life

its how phil was trying to stay calm and yet was frantically telling chayanne to res him so he could get to tallulah, it's how he realised there was no hope, he just started apologising to chayanne, over and over, told him that the island didn't want them to live, was so upset that he called upon the island itself to fix its mistake or incur his fucking wrath

like it doesn't make sense

everyone on the server was willing to give him a life to keep him from dying first. He and bdubs interacted like once but the second bdubs heard that he was on 7 minutes he let jimmy kill him. Scott let jimmy kill him. bot joel AND grian said they were going to give him a life to stop him from getting out first. when he died, even people that were AGAINST him were disappointed. and somehow the ONE TIME that the ENTIRE SERVER is rallying on his side, where half the server would have let him kill them for a life, the way he dies is by mysteriously unshifting on the edge of a structure

im a fic writer bro that was the watchers they were pissed that literally everyone except mister goodtimeswithsadism and like, cleo were rooting for him and they just flicked him off the edge bro what. also the fact that he should have died earlier from etho's boogie kill...they were just compensating.
