the working of a revived person's body ; inspired by the moot @watermelonfrog2 !!
when someone dies, their body goes through a natural process of decomposition. the body doesnt serve any purpose, as it has seaced function, so with it no longer being self sustaining, it starts to rot.
this is a know fact, but what if the body was sprung to life after this prolongated pause?
tommys body didnt deteriorate much post-mortis. other than the... "mishandling" from dream, his body would only partially rot, nothing that big. well, thats if we dont count the multiple bruises from his rather violent death.
however, wilbur, who was dead for a long time, didnt have much luck in that regard. by nine months, the human body will be swollen and in an advanced state of decomposition, alongside a foul stench natural of the rot.
the revival book will fix you up just enough to stay alive, but that doesnt mean it will completely heal you.
tommys wounds had long since closed, even if the bruises were still there. the revival book stopped his internal bleeding, and fixed some part of his broken skull just so the pieces wouldnt stab his brain and provoke an instant death.
wilburs only wound would have been the gaping hole in his stomach, caused by the sword he had handed his father that day... however, even when that closed, the decaying state of his body would have killed him instantly.
being fixed up by the books power isnt nice nor soothing. its actually rather painful, as your body is forced to work all if the sudden and heal itself so quickly it will drain you of any other energy you might have.
wilburs body is still rotting, and the stench of the death follows him because he was dead for a long time.
i imagine that tommy would help patch him up and evem replace some bits of skin.
regen and healing potions are a basic necesity for the revived. their body doesnt work properly, and the natural healing process doesnt either. if left untreated, a small wound could be the cause of their next death, because the wound will never close by itself.
tommy had to taku up sewing once again to apth himself up, just like the old war times, except this time no one wouls hold his hand to aliviate the pain.
they run really cold, too, because the blood rushes slowly through their veins. revived ones tend to avoid cold places because of this. they miss the warmth they had once experienced. tommy wants to seek out tubbo, but snowchester is too cold, no matter how many layers of clothing puts on. wilbur wanted to stay with phil, but the coldness of the commune just served to remind him of those long years stuck in the train station.
they are sickly pale, no matter what. their skin a greyish color. no matter how much time they spend under the sun, it will never gain a lively color again. sometimes wilbur will use makeup to add redish tone to him skin, but he knows its fake.

did you like aspects of the finale but didn't like its overall message cause that's how I felt about it. I didn't hate the whole thing, there were some parts I liked I think the execution was bad and how it was too much dog piling on c!Tommy as if he's to blame for everything.
The finale was mid and idgaf so bad, made a whole comic for alternate ending that still would be much more better and a better segway for season 2
They should’ve just keep c!clingy and c!punz alive on a finale stand off againt cdrm and cpunz. Bla bla bla after that we can explore c!clingy and also c!punz and c!dream(they are evil yaoi)
I think it would be awesome to write both post-standoff c!clingy and c!dream n c!Punz because its sure as hell a great time to write the character mental state, how they cope, how everything has effected them as a character all that jazz.

polyheathers but they go my way because god i love polyheathers.
they like pet names and they all call each other their girl(s) and they're not all that healthy but they're working on it. and then heather chandler FUCKIGN dies and heather duke and heather mcnamara are sad and upset and they take it out on each other. but then they have a bonding moment in which mcnamara and duke open up to each other and they're like "i just lost one of my girls. i don't want to lose another".
and then dukenamara mourns over their (dead) third and woah can u believe it they see chandler too and they're thinking KSJSJKSJKDNKDSN OH MY GOD CHANDLER and oh what a surprise all of a sudden they have acquired a revive book and revived chandler and now they're living out their best poly relationship ever

thinking about how from the second c!dream made a deal with c!schlatt c!tommy's fate was sealed. the second the revive book entered his hands c!tommy was no longer free and never would be. do you ever wonder if c!schlatt knew? not about c!dream's plans, i mean, but that he planned to use it on c!tommy? i mean, what would he do with an enemies corpse? do you wonder if that’s part of the deal they made? a few test subjects, here and there? do you wonder if c!dream was planning exile from that very moment. do you wonder if c!lazar and c!Vikk would still be alive if c!tommy didn’t escape? bc like canonically c!lazar visited in exile it has to be towards the end of if not after it. do you wonder about what c!tommy could have been if it never existed?
