My Interpretation of the Subscriber Specials regarding the Tpot/Bfb timeline as of Tpot 17
(theories + rambling + a million questions i would like people to yap about cus i cant be the only one wondering whats going on)
Theres reason to believe that subscriber specials could be prequels (the first ones being before 4 and x left for bfb and so on)
We see that 6 is the last remaining being in the playground (this info can still be unreliable since 6 is in hiding(?) and seems to be running away from an active threat
Theres reason to believe that this threat is 2763 from the latest subscriber special except it doesnt make sense-
1) 6 was taken by 2763 that episode
2) 2 was also taken and yet theyre out and about- if 2763 was still a threat i doubt 2 would leave their homies with 2763 (also 2 left to host a show not to save themself)
3) The zero with the cap and i believe the other zeroes were left alone by 2763, where are they now?
This seems more like a timeline issue rather than 2763 not fitting the bill as a threat-
I propose that the debut of 2763 happened way before tpot during bfb, before 2 left to crash and host- this could explain why 4 and x arent there🤷♀️
I believe that the aftermath of 2763s attack also happened before 2 left as well given that 2s reasons for leaving felt more personal rather than for survival
Although 2763 could still very well be what caused whatever happened to the playground, I am not sure if 2763 is the problem or if there even is an active threat in the first place-
With the knowledge given in the tape- 6 wouldn’t have been hiding in a tree (given that it advised them to go underground instead of high places) and the zeroes would probably still be there, not only that the red sky is gone and 2763 only wanted to keep them in jail so where are they now? And why does 6 stay?
What caused the others to leave might have been something else.
(maybe idk i feel kinda redundant lmao)
I also have reason to believe that the others leaving and their reason for leaving might have happened AFTER 2 left to create tpot (because if there was a threat 2 knew of, i doubt they wouldnt leave their homies behind unless it was the others that made them decide to leave in the first place)
then again im not sure if the subscriber specials are canon el o el
Onto Present Canon!! Whew boy Im sure im not the only one who noticed the state of 1s dimension- 2 episodes ago when the possible end of the universe was happening she was calm, calculating, confident perhaps too confident
I can agree with others that confidence and ego is what caused her to be careless of donut and the portal, although they caught him anyway- Im surprised she went straight to outright yelling, emotional manipulation and idk pulling his limbs instead of trapping him there instead until he signed the deal in the first place (in hindsight she could have been rushing for the sake of whatever shes waiting for happening soon)
I wonder too what 1s goal is (please yap id like to yap back)- its clear it isnt just 2s power on the table considering that the whole destroying the universe and bringing objects to the playground feels like a bit too much effort (wouldnt she want the competition to go faster otherwise?)
1 seems really powerful and is technically free from the moon and able to go wherever they want to so why go through all that effort to screw with the timeline and putting cracks in the universe- surely there was another way to get gaty to sign I suppose :/
Also why does she need them to go in 4s mind? Why is 6 trying to contact 4? Do 4, 2 and x also know the state of the playground? (I saw some theories that 1 could be trying to contact 3 so I wanna know what yall think)
I also wonder if the door the previous tpot contestants were trying to open was 2s gateway to the playground but because it doesnt exist in the playground world (otherwise 6 would have seen it) it cannot open from the inside (it could also be 1s interference) unlike 4s door that exists in both worlds hence its openable-
Also how would they escape 2?
Not only that does 2 know about 1s involvement or is she interfering to make sure they dont know (i think its pretty obvious 4 and x have no clue🤷♀️)
Regardless 10/10 episode would like another one soon 🕊️
