I think the saddest part of Passerine was of the insignificance of it all. For example, Niki and Tubbo were and are such amazing people, but it really shows how fleeting life is and how true talent isn't appreciated. Tubbo and Tommy never got to meet, and Niki died an undeserving death. If you think about it, Sapnap wasn't the enemy, and Dream wasn't either. The fact that they were put at the end really hammers home that point. Such a beautiful story and such a beautiful animation.

[@Jade_o7]

i came back to watching this after finally reading it (i still have a chapter to go) and finally noticed all the little details. Especially at the end 3:46 i think its tubbo and someone else (idk) and Niki with flowers from her flowershop at the end. The fic is so good.

"It was a sad song. It was a happy song. It was a song of a summer day from years ago, tucked between faded memories like a flower pressed between the pages of a heavy book, now dusted off and clean. It was a song of an artist mother and a warrior father, and sons that were both. It was a song about the grass beneath Wilbur’s feet and the sweet scent of flowers in his lungs. It was a song about war and ruin, and grief and loss, and the nightmares that still managed to take him by surprise even when he was awake, and living anyway. It was a song about love and all the ways to say it: sacrifice and a cup of hot tea waiting at his desk, chess during the lazy days and music during the hard ones, leaving and staying, remembering and forgetting. It was a song about family, born or made or found or rediscovered. It was Tommy’s grave at his back. Mother’s unfinished painting. Father’s necklace around his neck. And when the final note echoed off into silence, there was no standing ovation, no raucous applause. Just like the voices for the past two years, six months and three days, there was only silence. It was the most beautiful sound." - Chapter 7

[@anonymous_cryptid6168]

i’m not a sentimental man, but something keeps bringing me back here. i remember when this first came out, i remember the emotions it evoked. but the line between emotions from fiction and emotions of reality is a line better not crossed. it should be apparent to us all now that the man we see here and the man that he was created via are not the same. one is a monster, and the other is… what? nothing, now? a memory? i don’t know. I don’t have to know. i’m waxing poetic in a youtube comment section of a dead fandom.

[@laurax1179]

Just because something is no longer with us, doesn’t meant the emotions and memories it gave us are gone too. These stories resonated with so many people because they told tales of love, trust, brotherhood and loyalty. They told the story of how to keep fighting when everything else seems hopeless. So maybe the actors in these tales are no longer with us. One taken from us far too soon, the other rightfully cast out for causing pain and hurt to those closest to them. But the tales stick with us. They stick with us because they were important, and the emotions they elicited were real. It’s ok to grieve a time when we came together and told each other these stories. Take care ❤

[@asterisk994]

The once conceived must also reach its end. So enjoy it, while the present is in your hands, fellow poet.

[@NijutheWolf]

This was amazing to read, as I feel the same. You cannot trust a monster, for if you do, they will do nothing but turn around and stab you once more. (Or, in this case, bite.) The amazing, kind, ridiculous man we once knew is gone. Now, all we have is a lying, abusive cheat. And without Techno here to help us, we have to take this on by ourselves.

"Tubbo could almost see himself shaking the prince awake. And the prince would blink drowsiness from his eyes, ask Tubbo who he was, and Tubbo would say, “A friend,” and maybe in another life that wouldn’t be a lie. Tubbo’s cheeks felt warm. He knew he must be crying. He knew he must be sad. But for whom? Who was he even mourning? His kingdom’s prince, yes, but the harsher truth, a stranger. A stranger whose laughter still faintly echoed in Tubbo’s head like a half-remembered song from a distant childhood. A stranger who’d gambled his life for his kingdom and lost it a heartbeat away from victory-if this bitter thing could even be called that. A stranger that felt like no stranger at all. But a stranger nonetheless, Tubbo reminded himself. And through a blur of tears, Tubbo saw what the general had left behind, tucked gently behind the prince’s ear, like a final offering: a single yellow rose." -Passerine, chapter 4 I believe

This hits in the gut after you finally finish reading the entire fic; it really shows the pain of living but the happiness that it’s worth. Sure, death is sweet, and running away seems free, but enjoy the life you have while you still have it. You never know how much you might regret not doing something.

“It won’t be for forever,” Philza promised through his sobs. “I swear on you both, I will find a way back to you. Someday, there will be nothing to fear anymore, and I’ll find you again, even if it takes me eons.” None of them said what they were all thinking. Wilbur didn’t have eons, and neither did Techno now.

Somewhere, far out in the universe, there is a peaceful kingdom. It's king was wise and fair, and it's general was tough as he was gentle. The castle was huge, with a large garden surounding an elegant pavilion, with a simple grave in the center. If one was to walk the halls of the castle, you could hear music, which wasn't uncommon in the city, but the music in the castle sounded... sad. It mourned, and it cried through the empty hallways; for all the servants were out in the city, celebrating their newfound peace. If you followed the melancholy music, you'd find a small room, with only two people. The wise king, playing an old guitar, and the brutal general, playing a violin. It was strange, seeing these two play such sad and beautiful music. They played without stopping till the sun drooped down low, casting their shadows against the wall. Only then, in the waning light, did they stop, and pack up their instruments. By then, the festivities had ceased, and people went back to their homes. No one knew of their secret songs, but the lingering feeling of two other figures reminded them that someone *was* listening. A woman, who had left her two boys unwillingly- and a son, who would never outgrow his boy-hood.
