Can I get some c!drunznf please 👉👈

HI !!!!!!! Sorry for the late reply, I hope you don't mind me just rambling about them!

There's this AU I've been thinking about for months now, that revolves around reaching a happy ending with c!drunznf as endgame (started with making a poly V work but the au had other ideas so it's more of a closed triangle now–), it's called the rose thorns au!

Everything in canon happens exactly the same up to the lore stream where c!Wilbur and c!Tommy go to the prison (basically it'll diverge when the new lore event happens), with two key differences:

Dream and Punz are soul-bonded!

The energy needed to revive someone is more than one person can hold in their body so Dream did a lot of research, and before the boomer experiments, he proposed a bond to Punz.

This means that when Dream uses the revive book, he taps into the bond and borrows some of Punz's energy to be able to use it, otherwise it's life threatening!

George is a mushroom hybrid!

But like. way more than just that. His hybrid nature was triggered when he set foot on the SMP and the server responds to him because it loves him (because Dream loves him and the server is in tune with Dream).

George basically has plant-based powers. He can create and control vines to restrict and harm people, he can make flowers bloom by brushing his fingers against them but he can also make flowers bloom on people and in people which is well. deadly. except in very specific circumstances!

Outside of that, everything is similar to canon except Punz was in love with Dream by the time Dream proposed the bond Dream was too he was just in denial, and they have a... casual relationship going on before Dream goes to prison that turns into something much more serious after he gets out.

DNF is also very much a thing! They've been dating way before the SMP and the dethronement arc is basically their break up arc. George eventually gets back into Dream's life after the prison break, when Dream seeks him out worried how the world around him is behaving, like it's mourning, maybe longing? for someone (George is depressed–)

Eventually they all get together but it’s such a mess until then (and after too, who am I kidding), it’s a whole lot of George being bitter and jealous, Punz having all the patience in the world (don’t worry he fucks up too <3), and Dream just barely keeping it together the entire time… oh but when they manage to communicate in a somewhat healthy way, it’s beautiful – the fluff, the cuddles, the pet names…
