#also every time i see a post about how wilbur will meet elq and immediately know he’s not qq im like ok and???

i think one of the reasons i dislike qtntduo as a ship is that wilbur hasn’t been on since literally before the brazilians arrived and everything about qq and elq was always made to be about him. and listen, i know qq’s obsession played a role in that but also qq’s thing about wilbur is so much more complicated that it usually gets portrayed. also having them be romantic and actually involved with each other would be boring sorry

#like the most interesting thing about their dynamic is the tension #also the unbalanced nature of the interest and the unhealthy route of qq’s interest are compelling as character aspects #but not as interesting within a romantic relationship #qq’s whole thing about wilbur is genuinely incredibly interesting. it also has very little actually to do with wilbur as a person #that’s why it’s able to continue so long without his presence #also every time i see a post about how wilbur will meet elq and immediately know he’s not qq im like ok and??? #didn’t literally every other player immediately see that he was acting off as well??? #i think their dynamic is interesting and that wilbur genuinely does give qq something he needs (open acceptance in a way he doesn’t receive #from any of the other players) #but that doesn’t mean i want to see that dynamic turned romantic #and i certainly don’t think it would healthy for qq if it did (if he was still here which he isn’t rn so yk kind of moot) #i hope elq doesn’t view him as anything special at all #i hope wilbur was just a means to an end for him and nothing else #but yeah a large part of my frustration comes from seeing qq moulded and filed and chipped away at to fit into the dynamic #rather than being allowed to be a complicated messy interesting character #idk #quackity #qsmp
