The c!Quackity's characterization I've seen from the new fans of the spanish community is awful, they see him as this big bad power hungry villain with a thirst for vengeance. And I know most of the info they're getting is just from twitter threads and the subtitled parts of the nevadas lore in the Spanish channel but---NO, HE'S NOT LIKE THAT, YOU DON'T GET IT
:( damn i didn't even know abt all that. i'm not on twitter like at all so i haven't seen this happen. it's just hard to understand his character if you haven't seen his pov from earlier arcs, i'm nm at their confusion. it happens. i'm sure if i tried to nail karmaland quackity's character from only reading threads about him i wouldn't get him either.
and like to a degree? yeah. cquackity has been power hungry because of how he was completely stripped of it in the past, though he should've had a say in things. nobody respected him during manburg or in pogtopia. if he finally has power, he can finally keep himself safe, he can keep the people he cares about safe, y'know? and he has been very vengeful! finally abandoning the never-ending cycle of revenge is a huge & very important part of his character's arc. but i still stand by that he's not a villain, he's not a big bad. especially manburg cquackity, which is what i was talking about in the post i made about poor characterization. if you go through cquackity fanart from that era, specifically art of him at the festival, a lot of it depicts him being happy that tubbo dies. when that's literally not true. people just do him so fucking dirty, they portray him as someone who does not care about his friends or loved ones when he does. so fucking much. love & keeping the people he cares for safe are huge motivations for cq. anyway my hope is people who think Las Nevadas era cquackity is this big bad villain will be proved wrong in the next lore stream when we're shown how he's grown since Charlie positively influenced his life.
