#vs. grian i think (?) only becoming etho obsessed later but like. i wish i could have heard his at-the-time review of 404

[bellshazes]

in my heart there's another probably worse universe where instead of the watchers taking off after evo, etho's writers from 404 became the highly misunderstood "i am fictionalizing and poking fun at my relationship with my audience & their perceptions of me and how i am motivated by them but not in a 1:1 cause and effect relationship and they are kind of obnoxious but i also care abt my literal audience liking what i do bc i do make stuff for youtube" fandom staple.

there's something substantial in here abt grian being SUPER particular abt things in a different but parallel way to etho (grian not watching other smp member's POVs and being open abt that bc it allows for genuine surprise, etho's like everything ever? but top of mind his old insistence against modded stuff, comment of the day, etc.) but honestly. can anyone who actually cares abt the watchers or whatever write me a 404 crossover. thats what i want

#haunted by bdubs' contemporary TOO COOL comment abt oh etho's ep 404 was cool go check it out #vs. grian i think (?) only becoming etho obsessed later but like. i wish i could have heard his at-the-time review of 404 #too bad the reviews of 404 were so mixed & the setup so dependent on modded s1 to ever be replicated #bc AGAIN complex stupid consistent goofy mocking loving relationship w audience.whatever. #peter posts #somehow evo was the first ever mc smp i ever watched btw. circa 2019. but.. #404
