q!tubbo was locked in a glass cage that was slowly filling up with lava desperately trying to escape but finding no exit. he listened as his friends screamed in fear as lava slowly clouded his vision knowing he couldn't help them no matter how hard he tried. he was stuck begging them in pained screams to not leave him behind trapped and suffering for the federation to see. all he wanted was to figure out what happened to the eggs and fred and instead he got scars, both mentally and physically, in return. q!tubbo is such a tragic character.
i have not known peace since i realized the dayman dennis parallel was 100% intentional and was very specifically included in the "16 episodes to rewatch before season 16" list on sunny's social media accts. complete with a clip of him saying. i am the ruler of darkness. i am. the dayman.
