unfortunately, this feature on Instagram is being rolled out slowly so not everyone can see this. I didn't think it was real until I googled "insta story" and read the articles about it. I wanna say the first and last one are videos but there's no way to tell as of now.[/offtopic]
I found this funnier than it actually is. We get it Danyul, you love dem dicks Although the last picture seems to be a capture from a video, maybe?
He's definitely posting videos on there for sure. More people are posting screenshots from it as well as other photos/videos. Also these videos and photos only last for 24 hours. He's doing a mini day in the life with just him. Which makes me wonder if Phil is still up north? Someone posted a video of it to Twitter
We're here, we're queer, we're filled with existential fear!

No, not at all, that's what I was thinking as well. And they were visiting instagram HQ a couple of weeks ago, weren't they?

But they've never been interested in using snapchat, so I don't know what to think about it.

Soo…is Phil still on the IoM? And Dan never went with him? Why does this make me so sad...

Belated Undertale reactions below:
I'm basically just here to support the real-ness of Phil in this video. When I saw the comments that said he looked bored I had to do a double take because, if anything, he seemed more engaged than usual while Dan seemed to be compensating for illness/lack of energy by being extra loud. Phil got in so many little blink-and-you-miss-ems that I found myself rewinding to hear them again.

The tsundere thing. A quiet and gentle yet firm suggestion, correction even. It may not be a "take me NOW/enter ME" comment like we get from Dan but it is something coming from him.

The sword moment/"innocently" was probably my favorite of the video.

Other stuff I liked:
-Cheeky ribenas
-How they pick up one another’s expressions (Phil says “af" at one point and Dan says "I don’t trust that at all")
-Everything tea (but especially Dan’s “you’re a coffee pig”)
-Domestic coffee notes
-The, ah, intense cooking
-Dan’s Heats Flamesman face (that boy has one wide mouth)

He is fast(too fast sometimes in the sims) with his hands and controls the games nicely but phil is the more intelligent player. He is always the first to solve puzzles and stuff quickly while dan seems pretty lost. it happens in every undertale video i think

When it comes to gaming, Phil is the methodical strategist while Dan has more gamer bravado than he'd probably care to admit. They're as well-balanced here as they are in so many other ways.

And...can I just have my little trash moment and say Phil's smiling in this video stunned me...he just has such a warm and calming presence Also, shout-out to Phil's eyebrow game which I thought was extra-strong in this vid.

Dan didn't say he is alone

I don't think there's much to see on the Instagram HQ, so it seems some brits went there to meet and sign

That's basically how I took it, but at a stretch it could go in the male mentions. I guess. Listen, I'd love to discuss Phil's mentions as much as Dan's (sorry dp333, it'll happen if we can make it happen), but there's really not much to discuss with this video. He's been making dick jokes forever (he jacked off some wood in the wardrobe video come on), but sure it's always appreciated. I'm looking out for those mentions like my life depends on it, but what is there to say here? Like really, what amount of discussion can be generated with what he gave us here? Because I'd love to get in on it, but am struggling to find much to work with. It's not because it's going over my head or I'm actively ignoring anything, I just literally don't have anything to expand upon.
but it doesnt bother me that we dont discuss phils mentions as much as dans. I would never want to have the same amount and the same kind of discussion we have about dans sexuality for phil. Never in a million years. honestly. i prefer it this way. we have enough things regarding dan "stretch" as it is.
what bothers me is people judging phil like he is dan. whenever dan does anything people will find a way to involve phil. when will phil lust over boys like dan does. why isnt phil open like dan. i wish we would have more male mentions from phil. i wish phil would share more with us like dan does.why does phil uses "i" instead of "we". Why doesnt phil talk about how aroused he is? BECAUSE PHIL IS NOT DAN THATS WHY
its like me saying "why isnt dan sharing family stories like phil?" when will dan talk about his brother like phil does?" when will dan be a positive and fun person like phil?" when will dan stop being a negative nancy?
at the same time whatever comes out of phils mouth is less important.
imagine if dan made the "i had two cockies" joke or the papyrous joke. it would be more important and less of a stretch.
phil is open in his own way. and he shares his own things. phil is not dan. why do people want him to be dan?

wow so many of you are saying dan was really loud in the undertale video. i didnt even notice him that much. i could only see phil. thats when you know you phil was killing it

Lol I know, I meant I'm sorry that we'll make it happen if we can, knowing you don't want it to happen.
phil is open in his own way. and he shares his own things. phil is not dan. why do people want him to be dan?
We don't want him to be Dan, we just want a more equal distribution of conversation since people focus so much on Dan and what he says/does. I definitely talk more about Dan but it's not because I like him more or am more invested in him as a person, he just inspires more conversation (good and bad, I'd even say you talk more about Dan because you complain about him incessantly). Phil's great and deserves as much talk, but it just seems like there's less to say because yes he's open in his own way, but not in a way that inspires as much dissection for some reason. It's not a bad thing, just makes the conversation lean more in one direction is all. shrug.
Thanks and have a great day! Oil me

This totally explains how quick he was to shutdown the idea of Snapchat last live show. Get that FB/IG money, Danyul.

I'm not even mad. If Instagram literally ripping Snapchat off and paying D&P means I get daily video content from Dan & Phil, I'm so in. Sign me right the fuck up. Give me snaps of your stir-fry. Or how Phil spilled milk on the couch. Or what show you're watching. Literally anything. I will be the trash in which you throw your pointless 3 second clips. YAS.

So my two cents on the Instagram thing (which btw isn't available in the uk update):
For weeks and weeks they've been making sure to answer the 'GET SNAPCHAT' questions with a resounding no. They've clearly been #spon to do this and it's so similar to snapchat that it kinda makes sense now why they've answered so many questions about it. Would be interesting to see if them always answering the question in the liveshow correlates with the time they hung out at insta (agreeing to their terms and conditions).

END MY ENTIRE LIFE

I don't care if it's spon, I just want it to continue forever (but definitely through Australia) because then maybe people can shut the fuck up about content droughts. :D

Basically rizzo, yes boys get that sweet #spon money.

edit: video So they weren't in IoM together confirmed and Phil is still at his parents place.

Agreed with fancybum. If you casually browsed this forum you might think that Dan is putting out loads of content or that he's wildly more popular than Phil because he gets so much of the conversation, but that's deceptive.

Why are they so cute and domestic?

Although this does confirm that Dan didn't go with him, or he did and went back earlier.
