[straighttohellbuddy]

hiya!! abt your dont threaten me with a good time/its a hell of a feeling though fic universe i saw you mentioned something abt a third part is that happening?? or do you any headcannons abt dream and y/n in that reader?? sorry i just saw the fanfic writer friday and thats my favourite fic of yours i reread it multiple times a week fhdhdjs <3

YES HELLO I'M AWAKE TO ANSWER AND I LOVE THIS FIC PROBABLY TOO MUCH

I was yelling about this to sid literally last night I have so many thoughts and headcanons about these dumbasses

So this is mostly based on the initial ask that inspired the fic, but the reader has known Dream, George, and Sapnap for years

And has been playing Minecraft for years

READER IS VERY GOOD AT PVP but everyone seems to forget this until they're in mcc

Uhhhhh nsfw mention --

But back to sfw

The next part of the fic has some big developments but we also get flashbacks to their friendship before they got together and they're still insufferable together

Sapnap and reader were the first of the dream team to actually meet up irl.

Sapnap & Reader's friendship my beloved

But in terms of Dream/Reader headcanons:

They are without a doubt each other's biggest hypemen, literally so proud and so loud

So many "I love you"s

Reader is more likely to fall asleep on Dream when theyre watching a movie or have been up too long doing stuff, than the other way around

They don't really go out much together, mostly because the reader is well known too and doesn't want people recognising them and then recognising Dream, but they have been on cute private, usually dinner dates.

Dates may or may not include walking around at stupid hours getting into places or climbing things they shouldn't.

I love them, your honour. Thank you for coming to my tedTALK

may i ask... for you to tell us more about domestic nightmares 🥺 ramble as much as you want

ANON I WOULD HAPPILY KILL AND/OR DIE FOR YOU 

okay idk how far off the chain i am bound to go here cuz these are my stupid baby gremlin children and i also have links and stuff to provide and also y’know. ion feel like getting hate so all the idiocy goes under the cut.

ALRIGHT so it all began when I got this awful idea for the beloved spit fic (aka BIG MOUTH, read here) back when The Gang and I were on.... That Bullshit. I love putting depth into stories and characters and developing them as people and the universes they reside in and all that (read: i have the too much gene something fierce) and I wound up working on that fic for a hooooot minute so I wound up falling in love with that dynamic and building on all these stupid little quirks and starting to create a whole world out of one dumb little fic I got roped into writing.

It actually started as two separate things. For Big Mouth I was just like I need me a long hair Corey and that’s it. Then I was watching that one TERRIBLE fuckin’ 1996 Stone Sour bootleg and I was like OH SMALL???? And they wound up smushed together. Now I Am Here. 

SO DN is the terrible little infant baby children of 1996 brought into this, the year of our lord 2020. I’ve put out a little bit of Official Canon Lore in my quarantine notfic (aka oh my god, they were quarantined, read here) but that’s just scratching the surface. 

Corey and Paul have been friends fooooor fucking ever. They became attached at the hip in middle school and have been wreaking havoc ever since. Paul’s a bartender and certified Baby and he’s basically the angel to Corey’s demon. The yin to his yang. The “don’t feed after midnight” to his fucking terrible gremlin. Corey’s a genderfucked himbo workaholic. He works nights at the porn shop and also does Fridays and Saturdays dancing at the local gay club and he’s also got an onlyfans and shit. He’s terrible and my life has not known peace since he made himself known. 

Those two have lived together on and off since they were like 16ish cuz Corey got bounced around a lot but now they’ve got an apartment together behind the movie theater and it’s a disaster. 

Also Chris is the manager at PetSmart and got Corey a job there once upon a time. Corey kept it for a couple years and promptly quit at 18 to pursue thottery. Also Joey works at Hot Topic.

Now Jim works at the little family owned guitar shop in town (Craig owns the place) and he’s just a simple creecher y’know. He’s just tryna live his life and play guitar and work on his shitty little beater pickup and hang out with his friends and daydream about asses and bikes and getting ripshit with Sid when he gets home from work and Vibe. He’s got a townhouse on the shitty side of town with Sid and Mick which is a fucking chaos pit of its own. 

Mick probably does some trade job and he’s definitely the family cryptid here. Nobody’s entirely sure what he does when he doesn’t Make It Known but he’s quiet and contributes and he’s a bro. He’s also a vulture and is the reason there are bones and pelts and shit Everywhere and a whole fucking maceration area on their goddamn patio which the neighbors love to complain about but nobody ever does anything about it so whatever. Also neither Jim nor Sid would have any fucking idea what a succulent is, were it not for him. 

Sid’s...... Sid. He is the babiest baby clocking in at barely 20. He works at the fuckin’ grocery store stocking shelves and when he is not causing every possible problem within his capabilities he’s hotboxing his room and chillin with his transformers and making sick alien beats like the horrible little cave creecher he is. 

Shawn’s the sketchy, ambiguously old weirdo that everyone knows but probably shouldn’t. Corey knows him cuz he’s a bouncer at one of the clubs he works and the three stooges know him cuz of Mick. He lives in some fuckoff location in the middle of the woods off all the major roads and they all tend to hang out there. Jim works on cars and whatever “projects” he’s got going along with Mick (who keeps most of his vulture shit at Shawn’s) and Sid just sits there and vibes and steals all of Shawn’s beer in the process. Everybody else starts hanging around when Jim and Corey get together cuz they’re BOYFRIENDS.

But yeah, it’s basically just a bunch of little dumbasses living their lives and having fun and being one big terrible family together. I love them all dearly. 

I’ve got at least a billion current WIPs in this universe. Some are little one off PWP type things like big mouth, but I’m also putting my time into building up the proper timeline for yall which I’ll prob wind up firing off in bits and pieces as they come, y’know. Lil nugs to keep the dopamine moving. I really hope y’all fall in love with these dumbasses like I have. Lotsa content to come, I hope! :D

Also FTR I love talkin’ shit bout worldbuilding and stuff and I have SO MANY IDEAS TO SHARE so if you or anybody else ever wants to come pick my brain, DMs and asks always brighten up my day! I’m friendly, I promise sdfbgskjdf 

Thank you for coming to my tedtalk this made me very happy and god this is all just baseline stuff. I have lots of Feelings okay djfbvksd

[hottopic-aqua]

im gonna leave this on a good note before i pass out

- mickey: aquas like sora :) riku, utter despair in his voice: wH a T mickey: no! STRONG like sora!!! riku, actually having to calm himself down: oh thank god

- god!! riku floating in the abyss and then his post looks like the game over screen!! POETIC CINEMA

- i love that's there's actually a clear power difference between sora and riku. they're really bringing home how much weaker sora got during 3D

- sora getting mad over being left out of the conversation but being appeased by yen sid giving him new clothes

- i love Ienzo. I love how awkwardly formal he is and how he's clearly uncomfortable talking to sora but he's shoving it down bc "the past is the past :) if i keep myself busy then the feelings i've repressed since i was 8 will catch up to me :))"

- "whatever's between you and roxas is in the past!" i just love the casual mention of past organization life and was that a reference to lexeaus decking roxas lmao

- i like the hidden mickey concept

- npcs! npcs! casual dialogue all around you! a kid saying he's gonna relax all day and another kid replying "you're gonna fail the math test." they have school!!!

- sora not having any idea how to use a phone (and no one else being much besides fucking chip and dale....)

- i really love how open and detailed the worlds are. twilight town is fucking beautiful man

- roxas! looking for roxas!! data roxas and data sora being casually talked about!!!

- DO YOU SEEK OUR LIEGE

- hayners "hi sora! bye sora!" as he and the squad are running for lives from a tide of heartless.

- i just. love the twilight trio. so much. they're so pure.

- "he seems like a cool dude." "yeah :) he is." sora both times you met roxas ended with you in serious physical and emotional pain

- "like how namine is in kairi" aaaaaaAAAAAAA A A A A A

- i also love how sora very clearly Doesn't Trust Axel/Lea yet.

- donald: well axels on our side too now sora: >:T

- REMYYYYYY

- yeah that's all i can say thank u for coming to my tedtalk

[bledcrimson]

ok actually no graphics just me u kno. ready to yell. more bc ok uh

so i’d like to point out that jack is definitely not stupid; not only is he an alchemist, he’s an alchemist who mastered archaic godlike alchemy. for a refresher, if what arlen says about the kingdom of rebis can be taken as Fact: 

the royals were the alchemists. the king built the golems & those golems essentially powered the ENTIRE KINGDOM. for 1000 years, rebis functioned on the “grand arcanum” & this was done likely in a manner that wasn’t sacrificing human lives. golems don’t have souls, they’re like automatons. they’re controlled by an outside force, so it isn’t necessarily playing god to make a golem. much as it arguably isn’t playing god to make a chimera, because it isn’t “creating a soul”, which really seems to be the big problem. 

so jack was able to use rebis’ grand arcanum to revive the entirety of siam-sid. he populated it with other mythic humanoids, because golems were made as automaton servants, not as citizens. & mythic humanoids DO have souls. it’s been shown that other people have been turned into “golems”, which really means that jack was able to turn other people into mythic humanoids, which means he basically made a bunch of enkidus. of course, since he did a lot of this with the grand arcanum, the mythic humanoids he made were only able to speak rebisic, which is a dead language to basically anyone not jack or arlen. which is why they don’t talk to ed. not that they couldn’t, but because al is right, they don’t speak amestrian. these beings have personalities. they’re talking to each other when ed, al, arlen, & hawkeye arrive in siam-sid. they’re not mindless at all.

now, jack also had a philospher’s stone to help in what he was doing, but as he mentions, it’s flawed. so whatever he was doing really was Unnaturally Divine. by the logic of the method of creating a philosopher’s stone, it actually isn’t infinite. it just has a lot of power. if cornello’s little flawed ring could do “miracles” that convinced people that he was a prophet of god, then what can something like jack’s stone do? obviously, it must have the power to maintain an entire city. 

but due to its flaws, there is backlash & that’s most clearly seen in jack & elma having “nonhuman” forms. notably, elma’s has way more humanoid features than jacks, & that’s because jack has been taking all the backlash from the flawed stone. still, it’s a testament to his ingenuity, skill, & power that he was able to do all of this, even with the philosopher’s stone involved, people can’t do things on that level unless they actually UNDERSTAND what they’re doing so thats that thanks for coming to my tedtalk
