And the fact that it was Scar and Pearl as the final two.
Scar, who spent the whole of Secret Life alone, trying desperately to make allies but thwarted by the larger narrative. Who was over and over assigned the role as the villain and eventually gave in to the title. Who, throughout the whole series, was having to consciously put effort into not becoming completely unhinged. Who won despite the entirety of the server targeting at one point or another managed to pull through and claim the win.
Pearl, whose entire Double Life series was spent completely alone after Scott rejected her, with only Tilly for company. Who caused fear in her server mates for being "crazy" and "villainous" and "unhinged" when all she wanted was to make friends. Who tried time and time again to get close to people, only to learn she was better off being alone in a series dedicated to teaming up with your soulmate, and winning because of his sacrifice.
Do you think Pearl remembered it, when she told Scar to kill her for her hearts? Do you think it hurt her to hear him refuse her sacrifice, or do you think she was proud that at least this time, no one would be sacrificed for the victor's sake?
Do you think when they fought, in the fairest possible fight there could have been, Scar remembered another fair duel between the final two players? Do you think that when his old soulmate told him Pearl was dead, and that he'd won, he remembered a supposed double victory, and how quickly it had crumbled? Do you think he was happy to finally be on the other side of it?

Sneak peek! posting in 5 days -- a little Xmas present, if you celebrate. Just a normal one if you don't.
“Hello,” Fit replied, “we have a room booked.”
The person – Pac – hummed. “Name, please?”
“Fit MC.”
“Fit MC…” Pac muttered, typing something on his laptop.
Fit scanned the room. It was quite simple, to be honest. Two doors, presumably leading to hallways with the rooms. Some paintings on the wall, a couch. The front desk was barren other than the near-ancient computer and a flowerpot with some purple flowers on them.
“Wolfsbane,” Pac informed him, interrupting his thoughts, “very pretty, right?”

After his husband's unexpected death, Fit and his son Ramón go on holidays to a nearby city, hoping to relax - however their hotel is anything but normal, and with the help of a charming employee they must uncover the mysteries of the hotel, before they become one too.
Y'all. QSMP headcannon/AU rant time now. So. I have a little headcannon/AU on what the QSMP's (cannonical/lore) purpose is.
Basically, I think the QSMP could be a social experiment. Think about it: a diverse amount of people, speaking so many different languages and with such different backgrounds. And suddenly, they are taken to an island and asked to take care of children and keep them alive. What would they do? What relationships would be formed? What conflicts would there be? Who would keep their children alive? So, the Federation is managing this social experiment, and obviously need to keep it under wraps because it is NOT ethical in any way shape or form. And sure, they do mess around with the residents and stuff, and it is certainly not in a controlled environment/conditions, but that adds to the experiment. With all of these uncertainties and the Federation being seen as the enemy, they need to try figure it out and take down the Federation while still trying to keep their kids alive in all this pressure, stress, fear and uncertainty.
It is quite honestly a crime I've never drawn the cleaning lady in full color before
Perhaps this is already common knowledge on this app, but I have yet to see anything about it in my feed. If you are unaware, an AI tech company called HuggingFace recently had a user by the name of nyuuzyou scrape our beloved AO3.
This scrape included over 63 MILLION fanfics written by the hard working, passionate, and incredible people of every fandom. The scrape was conducted with the intent of using the data to generate AI fanfiction and fiction. If you have a fanfic on AO3 that has an ID between 1-63 200 000, and is publicly accessible (not restricted to registered users), then your work was scraped and used in the process.
AO3 admins are currently searching for solutions and some kind of retributions. Until then, make sure to limit your works to registered users and show the real writers that you value their time and contribution to fandom.
