GEM ANALYSIS TUMBLR WIN (+'Crash Out' Audience Thoughts)

Pearl: It's you. And that's why we love your humor. We love you and your humor. Gem (emphatically): Some of them really get it. Some-I-Listen: I have to give credit where it's due. The people on the Tumblr, they really get it. They get it, through and through, they've got it, they understand.

Gem's genuine love for Tumblr <333 also her Impy stream quote "Tumblr is a celebration of the fandom" we love her too. Interesting ideas here too on how they think about "the bit" and banter (and filtering which criticisms to retain.

Pearl (5/14) at 2:19:58. Above quote at 2:21:16.

Longer transcript with context (and meta stuff, and shinyduo):

Pearl: I'm just saying, I genuinely hope you know that was a joke crash out, y'know. If it was serious I-I dunno if Among Us is gonna work out. Y'know. Gem: Wha-It's all a joke-Pearl. Pearl! Don't be like the audience now-it's all a joke crash out. All-all of it. Mine are also overreactions. Pearl (teasing): Nah-no, yours are serious. You don't have to lie about that. It's okay. You can admit that, it's-I know you were genuinely crashing out... Gem (chuckling): You-you can't be like the audience in this way. No this is- Pearl: I know you were crashing out. It's fine. Gem: -This is what the audience does to me every day this week with R.E.P.O. and Among Us. 'Cause they love to think that the fights are very serious between me an-especially between me and Skizz. Pearl (encouraging): Ahuh. Gem: They'll be like-in places like: "Aw, t-they genuinely hate each other, I can't stand Gem she takes the game too seriously, I can't stand Skizz he can't take the game serious enough." Y'know, stuff like that. Pearl (whining): Awww nooooo... Gem: They don't-they don't understand that we're just-that it's just banter. Pearl: -That we're just joking. Yeah. See the main... Gem: -That big overreactions is part of streaming, y'know, you gotta react. Pearl: See the main reason I mention it is so that chat doesn't take it and go, "No, she genuinely crashed out." I say it as a side thing. Because they do. They do think I crashed out... Gem (agreeing): Yeah, but-yeah. But they think that it's real for me too and I've just sort of had to accept it. But it is rough. Pearl (sternly to audience): How-how have-guys. How have you not learnt that Gem's deadpan humor is actually fantastic, and that it's not actually genuine. Come on. [It's] all banter. Gem: They'll never learn it, they won't learn it, it's not-they don't- it's not possible for them to learn it, mostly... Pearl: It's you. And that's why we love your humor. We love you and your humor. Gem (emphatically): Some of them really get it. Some-I-Listen: I have to give credit where it's due. The people on the Tumblr, they really get it. They get it, through and through, they've got it, they understand. Pearl: And they love it. Gem: It's like the-it's the-it's theee... There's just a section of the audience. I think the older adults in the audience. Sometimes some things get a little lost on them. Pearl: Most people get it, most people get it... And it's fine. Gem (enthusiastic): I've had-I've argued with Skizz like screaming at the top of my lungs into my mic at Skizz - the camel thing's a prime example - and afterwards he'll message me and be like, "That was awesome." Pearl (laughing): That's fantastic. Gem (aghast): But the audience just doesn't get it! They don't-For some reason they don't see how awesome it is. Pearl: Ahuh. They just-it's just-honestly, the genuine enjoyment-we know it's entertaining and it's 'drama entertainment' and that's what it is. It's the drama for the-for the fun of it. Gem: Buncha' theater kids. Anyway... [TCG talk]
