For ppl who want to know how the egg carton is coming along
still under construction, however the island needed something in place now so q!Bad made the mini “egg basket” under spawn. empanada, sunny, ramon, richas, and pomme have all put their pearls there.
it’s a “one click teleports all” system meant to get eggs out of danger, so they can then warp to their safe rooms at home. not meant to be perfect, only temporary, but is immune to most things like the iconic symmetry wand elevator trick! there’s been a sense of relief to have something secure :D
Bad used securitycraft block pockets as a cool feature of the basket’s design, making a small emergency chamber where eggs can pass through to survive damage and escape. he’s been running several more tests since, and got a genius idea which would make the carton & eggs completely invincible. like it’s apparently so overpowered it’d neutralize everything. the plot itself too 💀
his biggest concern though is the minute he makes a move like That, the retaliation response would ofc need to scale with it (as it has done already) and become absolutely bonkers also. he’s worried if something crazy happens they aren’t prepared for, like straight up disabling certain items or throwing them into the middle of a minefield
yeah so Bad *probably* won’t do that idea, but he is making progress!
The egg carton is one central lobby with a much bigger all-tp system branching off into one pod for each egg. he’s continuing to add tricky stuff & some pocket blocks into parts of the design. it’s insane so far, immune to all the important stuff like a whole fortified vault bunker
general destruction
chorus fruit
bicycle glitch
symmetry wand elevator
pearl water stream tampering
islander sabotage
eggs downed and non-parents can’t reach them
at the same time he’s been kitting out the kids, sunny now has an exp tank backpack & empanada has upgraded armor and tools. pomme and him are working on more sets offstream
So I saw screenshots and clips of Kieran smiling creepily and had to get footage for myself and man they weren’t joking:/
He really does. It took forever for the camera to pan towards him and for the idle animation to play at the same time to get a good shot. this one in particular was a good one
Also while looking at other screenshots compared to my own I realized he might be staring straight at the camera. Well I’m not getting any sleep ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Edit: he does this in other battles as well, here is one from his second
So I think it’s just his default idle animation in battle. Imagine we’re freaking out about this when it’s actually just him stimming… or foreshadowing but we’ll never know
i love when people on facebook groups are like "fowl will kick bad eggs out of the nest" any time someone else says an egg escaped a nest. Like, no they do not know that. We have watched birds sit on rocks, and lightbulbs, and golf balls, and ball pit balls. The really broody ones will sit on sterile eggs until they die unless you break them of their brood. You can swap a broody's dud eggs for fertile ones and they don't care or notice. Stores literally sell wooden and ceramic eggs to trick them because they can't tell the difference. People make posts about bad eggs exploding under their hens. They have no psychic ability to see the interior of the eggs. their brains are like the size of a lima bean and when they're broody they're so hormone addled they aren't even using it. there's 1 thought in their entire body and it's "hatch eggy"
this is the face of a bird that knows nothing, but in particular has no idea if an egg is bad
she would fight me for free if I touched that ball pit ball she trying to hatch. birds are stupid. if yours kicks an egg out just warm it back up and give it back
dude. foolish surviving a 3v1 inside a tiny obsidian box for over a minute, taking away most of the eggs health with phil before dying for the first time. making nuisance of himself, playing smarter not harder, operating as a distraction with half a heart and a dream as phil deals the final blows. then him and cellbit’s collaboration on their base, the large build and crazy fucking lava maze and decoy obsidian boxes making it impossible for the other team to destroy their egg in return. red team winning not by being the better pvp team, but by playing to their strengths - building, strategy, communication, and complete and utter chaos. they started preparing early, they made weapons, they built extensively and prepared traps and decoys. and with their gas masks and bombs and chainsaws and complete refusal to give up, they had to have been terrifying. if they played the tower defense strategy, they would have lost faster than green had. if they had spent time getting just armor and gear and none actually working on their base, they would have lost worse than blue. the red team won by playing smarter, grinding their ass off, and by turning the playing field into incomprehensible chaos even they couldn’t navigate. they didn’t even know where their egg was and they defended it perfectly. it was a well earned victory today - here’s to hoping there’s no repercussions
Dexter Sol Ansell, playing Egg (the future King Aegon V Targaryen), is best known for playing the (very) young Coriolanus Snow in the opening scene for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

I think Dexter is a perfect choice for Egg! He looks very HBO-Targaryen, and IMO has a strong resemblance to Leo Ashton (young Aemond in HOTD S1), as well as Emma D'Arcy (Rhaenyra). Of course he'll be shaving his head (poor kid), and with those light eyebrows, I'm sure he will be very very egg, lol.
Our new Dunk, Peter Claffey, from Portumma, Ireland, used to be a rugby player (he's 1.96m, 6'5"), but left the sport in 2018 and got into acting. Here's a clip from his agent's site, and for more videos see here.
I personally think this clip is highly convincing of Peter's potential in this role. "We could use a man-mountain like you", indeed.
