"Welcome! I'm glad to see that we still have people interested in volunteering. We have 6 positions open this Riverseason, 3 at each of the base camps. After you fill out your paperwork I'll take you to meet the new Companions and we'll see who you connect with!"
every few years after a heavy rainy season the river swells and a lush, high, patch of forest grows around its fattened middle in a matter of days. during this time strange Creatures emerge to nest in the surrounding area, which is seemingly a safer place to rear young than the forest, and then migrate back when the river begins to lower in a few months. neither the creatures nor the Townsfolk know why the forest appears or what exactly is going on with the river but they learned long ago to (mostly) live in peace. 
while the forest makes most people uneasy, some are very eager (maybe too eager) to explore it. this includes some young Creatures who seem equally compelled to Enter. experience says that mixed teams have a better chance or survival (little guy with Powers + person with thumbs and camping supplies is a pretty good combo even if communication can be rough sometimes) and so that is how the scouting trips operate. scouts start at either upriver or downriver base camps just outside the forest and try to follow the river the entire way to avoid getting lost.
it is so easy to get lost.
most people lose sight of the other scouting teams about half a mile in even though they're all following the same river and going in the same direction. best case scenario is that you make new discoveries, map out a few things, and make it out the other side in way more time than it should really take to walk to the other side. worst case is you can't find your way out before the river starts to dry up and you hope the rain is heavy next year. 
pictured above are the little Companions ready to hike in with someone this season. you will only learn their names if you connect with one, but in loose power typing terms we've got:
a prophesy type (omens good and bad. tea leaves, smoke, tiny bones)
a wander type (never settled and never has to be. a shifter of sorts)
a fungal type (more than it seems. eager for friendship)
a celestial type (looking into the void. navigating by starlight)
a dirt type (grounded and persistent. a terror to terrors)
and a sylph type (the air in your lungs. the invisible belief)
which Companion will you choose? what name comes to you when they choose you back?

Whatever you do, don’t imagine Dream wearing earbuds/headphones for the first time and silently losing his mind because he LOVES music and suddenly it can be… in his head?? as loud as he wants??? and Hob has to explain music streaming services but loans Dream his phone so he can listen to music while he’s staying at Hob’s flat for the night
and then, once you haven’t imagined that, don’t imagine Hob waking up in the middle of the night alone (he definitely wasn’t alone when he fell asleep) and wandering out into his living room to find Dream laying on the couch with his eyes closed and the headphones on and so of course Hob is curious what Dream of the Endless, Lord of Dreams and Nightmares would listen to so he taps the screen to look at the song and it’s the weirdest shit (I’m thinking Gregorian chants, because Dream was seen as a god once and sometimes misses the sound of prayer, but it could also be some meme song like Cbat because Dream is a weird motherfucker) and Hob just wordlessly goes back to bed because the reality of the situation is just too much for him

I'm really not vibing with whatever staff is doing now. Not only does there seem to be a total internal communication breakdown, there also seems to be an absolute disregard for how the players are affected by this.
Like, ignoring the fact that the consistency argument doesn't even hold water, their takeaway from the Fern/Paisley thread seems to have been "oh we gotta change Breakup and Hypnotic too!!"
And then completely reversing Sandsurge Blend on top of that? A gene that's been out for over half a year and was only listed as having the gradient softened, not reversed? Just a total failure to communicate and an absolute bullheadedness in pushing the changes through despite the very reasonable player concerns?
To top it all off, none of these are bug changes, they are style changes. Someone saw these genes before they went live, greenlighted them, and put them in the game. And now, months upon months later, someone else (presumably) says "fuck that, I want the gene to look like this instead" and that complete change is just... pushed through??
Like. Did they learn nothing from the Butterfly debacle, from Obelisk Flair, hell, from the Eyepocalypse?
What the fuck is going on behind the scenes?

Man the way everyone was GUNNING for blue yesterday. the way theyve seen blue as a Threat. the big bad wolf lurking in grandma’s bed. and then today they got trounced so quickly and so soundly that everyone was forced to realize, maybe for a moment, that the wolf’s teeth are rotten. They are dogs barking to scare away the night, desperately hoping they’ll last long enough to see just one more day

Deltarune's Gerson being an author and their world's equivalent of Tolkien, creator of arguably the most famous piece of worldbuilding in the history of western literature, and stating that he was often inspired by his dreams... DELTARUNE ITSELF being the result of a fever dream Toby Fox had in college...
Dreams in Undertale being described as "the goal of Determination"
and determination creates dark worlds.

to me qsmp as a whole overarching thing insofar is like. Theyre not supposed to win. these challenges propose ultimatums with uncertain consequences when it comes to failure and require the success of every party involved to some degree. they say "work as a team!" and then make that near impossible with other stressors like timers and competition and divine intervention. its hypocritical and unfair and a facade. they were supposed to fail that pressure plate puzzle they were supposed to press that button and they are supposed to fail to keep all the eggs alive.
these challenges claim to be building teamwork but instead create more conflict between the characters and drive them apart with things have little to no real consequence in the end, but are devastating to the individual because with what information they have been provided, and how they interpret things, it is so very important and so very real.
to win is to have everyone work together, but with the pressure each challenge adds it only drives them further apart and then makes them feel guilty for not working well together. it makes unity feel impossible. i think it will be a story about trying to overcome that despite it all

If Stanley and the Narrator swapped places, it would be one man trying to get the same ending over and over again, with another man with god-like powers keep changing up the story. Just to mess with him.

considering trying to play create: mekanized and its very fun but i ALWAYS FORGET just how badly spending a lot of time in lategame vault hunters messes up my ability to play earlygame anything else. like okay see it's not that i entirely forget, trying to hit the heal key constantly and also the button i have bound to stonefall i do all the time, i expect it, i always go into earlygame other stuff like 'i'll still have some vault hunters lategame instincts i'll just adjust'. i just forget stuff like "i am so used to having a magnet that i keep on accidentally leaving blocks behind" and "oh god spending like a month with speed four makes everything else feel so slow" and "oh right i have to actually mine to get resources right" and this is modded minecraft i am trying to play modded minecraft it's not even like i'm going back to vanilla,

Should this conflict of interest actually go through, its gonna be real interesting.
Tazercraft have plans to target and potentially assassinate Baghera, who they see as a core competitor. They are still family to/allied with Forever. Forever is not only Baghera's brother, but her political ally as them + Badboyhalo have a pact to work together so long as one of them wins the election. Cellbit is also running as a front to aid Forever, and is presumably allied with Baghera, but also has butted heads with her over policies, meaning the two could see each other as potential threats. This isn't even getting into the other French members: Etoiles is very down for assassination, more so than actually being president, and is backing up Baghera, and the other French presumably as well (yet some of them are also friends of Tazercraft). Then you've got Fit being a friend of Tazercraft, and whatever strange secrets he's got up his sleeve. Felps is running by himself it seems, but I wouldn't be surprised if he allied with another Brazilian candidate at some point (or even became forced to choose between Forever/Cellbit and Mike).
Outside of this web, you've got Foolish running independently and only having an official ally in Jaiden as his ghost writer, and as such (along with his motivations for the server being very superficial) he'll most likely lose and ally himself with another candidate (either to help himself or them). BBH is allied, but he's also not fully trusting Baghera and Forever due to his own paranoia, which could cause a rift (I'm predicting now a BBH and Foolish team up behind the Ordo's backs). Quackity doesn't currently have any solid allies save for a potential and very mysterious connection to the Federation, making him a wildcard. There's a chance the Spanish speakers may favor him, though Roier doesn't want to get involved (his marriage to Cellbit could make him either support Cellbit or go against Cellbit since he doesn't want his husband involved either, which could lead him to Quackity's side), Vegetta would most likely support Foolish (which would give Foolish a very powerful ally and assassin on his side), and Maxo has pledged his support for Forever (they are also both Ordos and Maxo would most likely support the Forever/BBH/Baghera/Cellbit alliance). Gegg is a joke but Charlie is a menace and a friend of Quackity who could stir things up in his favor when it comes down to it (that or he commits to being Mike's brother and another ally goes into TC's field). And Philza is an anarchist who would kill everyone involved if given a motive...
I can see the train crashing...
