monkey behind the kegs. hiding from and ignoring the shit you don’t want to deal with. it’s not just your problem but you’re the only one who sees it. the problem doesn’t go away and you’re not around to keep an eye on it. it festers and spreads until it infects the people around you. paddy’s (dennis) rotting from the inside out. he can’t say what he needs to say because you stopped cleaning up paddy’s messes. you stopped keeping an eye on them. dennis used to always know what to say. he used to be so good with words. paddy’s is full of mould and pests and you’re making the mess bigger. and you know what you’re doing. you’re letting paddy’s rot for your own good fortune. the monkey’s paw curls its fingers. be careful what you wish for

So, that Life Series win, huh?
Considering the debate in the Life Series fandom rn, I wanted to get a poll to see where the general opinion of the fandom lies on this~
I know saying 'Reblog to spread the poll' gets old after a while, but I have p much 0 Life Series followers, so tags/reblogs are p much the only way this thing is gonna get seen enough for accurate results.

Hey you! Have you been looking and searching for Engineer Mark’s rant in the “hold on” ending? Have you been looking for the dialogue before and after the fateful “don’t” moment? Fear not, because I have it all right here for you! (Yes I transcribed this because I was looking for it and I couldn’t find it so I said frick it I’ll do it myself). Here we go! (PSST. Spoilers for the ending of In Space With Markiplier, if you didn’t know :D)
Sorry about that. Couldn’t afford to let you make another mistake. Yeah. funny thing to say after an eternity of nothing but second chances— don’t.
You don’t have to keep trying anymore. There’s no time anyway. Another thing I never thought I’d say again. But I’m gonna fix the damage you caused. I have had a long time to spend rebuilding this machine you broke. A long time, over too many lives. But I know now that this thing does more than just make wormholes.
Distance and time are the same thing from different perspectives. That’s all these universes are, just different points of view. And this machine didn’t just bridge a tunnel through our universe—it was bridging all of them. And you destroyed it.
I can’t undo what you’ve done. Not here, anyway… or at least, not now. If I could go back, if I could try again, if I could stop you before any of this even started, maybe I could save everyone.
Captain, captain, NO! You’ll destroy everything! Again!
Captain, captain! Don’t let go! Don’t let go!
..Wait. Let me go. Captain, please. I can fix this. Look, I don’t know what you did, and maybe you didn’t mean to, but I have to stop you. I have to! Gosh, I wish I had thought of a fake hand or something. Please! This is it! This is the end of everything. Everyone that ever existed is gonna get wiped out unless you let. Me. Go! Captain! Please. I have to keep trying. I have to.
Please, let me go. I know I can fix everything. I know there’s a perfect solution. I just have to find it! Please! Captain! Captain, no! Captain, don’t do it! Captain!
What have you done? You destroyed us. You destroyed everything. This was our last chance to fix things, and it’s gone. I spent an eternity in hell rebuilding this stupid machine, and you threw it all away! I don’t know if you’re evil or just stupid, but if I’m not back there to fix it…
If I’m not back there…
If I’m not back then… the warp core is not back?
I thought I rebuilt it because you destroyed it. Unless…
I built the warp core?
I sent it back?
I built it.
I built it. It was my fault.
I’m—Captain, I’m tired. I don’t know when the last time I slept was. I don’t know if I’ve slept at all.
Have you?
I’m really sorry, Captain. I thought the only way to stop this was to… stop you, stop all of this from happening in the first place. But it was me. It was me. All those mistakes, all those lifetimes, all the people. I guess I lost hope.
But you didn’t.
You never did.
