sometimes pecco pops his pussy so hard that i’m like wow you really are 3 time world champion! other times he decides to go play in the gravel when leading and i remember that he scored 0 points in his moto3 rookie season

when the commentary during the sprint was like 'you know, he could have been on five consecutive race wins now if he hadn't crashed out of the catalunya sprint on the last lap', I had to laugh because that's the pecco bagnaia experience right there isn't it. even when he's winning four races in a row, a part of your brain is still remembering the disaster that directly preceded it. when he got that track limit warning, I was convinced he was gonna mess it up. not because it's something he usually messes up, because it isn't - just because you're always waiting for something to go wrong and that seemed as good an opening as any. but no, apparently he's just in the bit of the season where he wins stuff. for whatever reason. or maybe he'll crash on sunday. who knows

taylor swift should never have written "i'm still a believer but i dont know why. I've never been a natural, all i do is try try try" because ever since i have become a sports fan those lyrics give me irreperable damage when i think about my faves coming close to their goals but never quite reaching them

Hello hello, am intrigued by your time travel MCC daydream thing and would love to read more rambles about it.

Who all are the adults in charge there? I think you mentioned Scott and Joel and Lizzie? Anyone else in mind?

And does time traveled Grian get to experience a respawn himself during this? Totally agree he'd be a top tier survivalist buuuuut...

HEHE best thing ever to wake up to in the wee hours of....12:33 pm I'm such an early bird I know

Kay I typed out a really long nonsensical ramble so this time I'm just going to go down the list of S3 players and anyone I don't specifically mention in these two lists is someone I've either never heard of before or can't decide

Adults: Aimsey, BadBoyHalo, CaptainPuffy, cubfan135, Eret, GoodTimesWithScar, Impulse, LDShadowLady, Mythical Sausage, Philza, Ranboo, Smajor1995, Smallishbeans

Children: 5up, CaptainSparkles, ConnerEatsPants, Falsesymmetry, Geminitay, Grian [duh], Fwhip, InTheLittleWood [that's Martyn right?], PearlescentMoon, Shubble, SolidarityGaming, TommyInnit

I specifically think that while Ranboo would be good daydream fuel, I am unfortunately bound by the logic of "nahh he really wouldn't opt in would he" and that Grian on the flip side did it because all of his friends kept gushing about how cute he would be and Grian was 80% sure he would win dispite coming from a permadeath world.

And yes, grian dies while practicing parkour, and and gets disqualified from participating like 2 weeks before the event, which is pretty damn long because I've set the beginning of the daydream as 4 months. At that point he had gotten accustomed to other people dying, but slipping up and falling for the first time into the void, being so sure he was going to die and then suddenly waking up in a bed but still feeling vertigo from falling was entirely different, and Etho [who at this point in time had been set as a teammate for Grian] had to calm him down, and later told Scott that Grian couldn't play in the event.

The rest of Grians time is spent relaxing since he didn't have to worry about dying [he does die at least 3 more times, but most people are being careful around him and hes both grateful for it and despises it], and doing way too much exposition because YHS Grian has an idea that his childhood is definitely not a normal or relatively good one, but hasn't had enough experiences outside of Tokyo since enrolling in Acedemi high to really draw the line on what's like actually kind of horrifying. Specifically he's hesitant to share that he killed people because Grian doesn't want to get outcasted or be seen as a murderer [who would], but everyone around him can't even imagine having to live with the guilt that you permakilled another player, since murder is a relatively light topic and punished with a slap on the wrist for most worlds

Oh I'd also like to add a few logistics and world building things, the biggest one is that anyone who opted into this event [MCC Time Warp maybe? I'm bad at names] was able to choose at what time their past versions would be, and most chose around 14 - 18, though a few chose to be 19 or even 20, and obviously people like Tommy went way under the average because he thought it would be fun and more chaotic, but Scott refused to let anyone chose under 10 years old. When the event is over, not much memory carried over, being incredibly foggy and getting embarrassed by their friends telling them what happened while they were regressed. I'm thinking the actual way they get them travelificated is either some redstone magic and basic time travel box y'know, something that will read a players code to see what year they can grab from based on how old the player is, or something like a more stable recreation of the rift since this daydream is very Grian centric, and the rift will just intrinsically know when to pull a player from when they step through.

Teams for this event are decided about a month before the event, Scott figuring that after 3 months they would have surely figured out exactly who wasn't mentally or physically able to compete [he was wrong] and by the actual event, 8 players have been disqualified. 30 players were time traveled because they expected people to need backup players, and each team is composed of 2 adults and 2 children/teens, with the teams mainly being balanced for safety rather than skill level and the younger kids getting placed with the most responsible adults or a much older teen teammate.

I had more to say but I keep forgetting and now it's 2 pm so I'm just going to hit post

[danthropologie]

To add on to your last anon. Daniel has pretty much been the number two driver at mclaren his whole time there. He rarely got the good strategy and was rarely the one winning out with team orders. He took it like the professional he is with “understood”

I think he knows if he goes back into that number two seat that he’s be the second driver, there to pretty much assist max in getting championships.

It’s one of the reasons I don’t know why checo is behaving like he is, that’s the role u were given in 21, it’s never going to change. Max will always be number one there until he retires.

Daniel understands that and would rather be number two at a team where he can get consistently good results and podiums than be number two in a team that is fighting for 7th and 8th place most weekends.

and this is where i creep back into delusion again because i've really, genuinely convinced myself that if daniel were operating at a high enough level, maybe the tides could turn back in his favor. max has a couple championships now and wouldn't it be so supremely sexy for red bull to be able to boast one of the few championship winning teammate pairings in the history of the sport!!

i miss pokemon swsh y'all were so mean about that game too when it came out but i've always really liked it 😤 especially the human characters
