#idk what I believe in but I do believe that techno would absolutely do these things

[dorylinae-supremacy]

Thinking about an AU where Techno, Wilbur and Tommy are all the harbingers of the actual entire apocalypse and Phil (just some insane guy) decides that those are in fact his kids and starts gaslighting the absolute shit out of them about it.

Rambles under cut!

I wanna try something where they're just more insidious and passive killers than anything else, theyre mostly just biding their time and watching as wherever they're lingering around gets sicker and just starts withering away.

They're a slow moving threat that just can't be stopped and for some reason (because Kristin thinks its funny) Phil just isnt affected by them.

Phil: Oh Techno's always been like that ever since he was a baby Techno: I have literally never met you a day in my life Tommy: Idk man... you have always been like that Wilbur: Oh my death he's actually getting to us

Its a mix of that combined with that "how did he know I was a gemini" meme

Phil: Wil! I brought you some salmon, I know how much you love it! Wilbur: How the fuck did you know I like salmon Phil: I'm your dad silly, of course I'd know :-)

I just think itd be super fun since Phil in this au is literally just some insane dude. He literally lies about their entire childhood but does it so consistently and so realistically that it throws them off guard.

I also have a few ideas where they start referring to Phil as their dad in the beginning as a sarcastic / mocking thing but accidentally just getting themselves even more adopted as they do it.

Phil: Wilbur put on a coat Wilbur: I don't need one! Techno: Go on, Wil. Listen to dad Wilbur: Ugh fine. Only because dad wants it, though

Stranger: Whos this? Tommy: Oh thats our dad. He kinda just tags along Stranger: Aww thats so sweet! You got his nose and everything Tommy: I- wh- no he's not actually our da- Phil: I know he did! Isn't he the cutest, spitting image isnt he? Tommy: You're not my dad! Stranger: Oh someones embarrassed! Phil: Yeah he's going through a rebellious phase right now

Just a mixture of things like that where it starts as calling him it but then accidentally actually giving him parental authority along with that.

I also wanna explore how Kristin and Phils relationship would be like. Maybe her as death being very bemused by this silly human that just decided she was his wife one day.

She literally visits him in dreams and stuff and he just acts as if they're married and have been for years. He complains about their 'rambunctious kids' and how he has to threaten them with her so that they behave sometimes. She finds it so silly and just cant help but play pretend.

Kristin: Hello, human Phil: My love! Its been so long since I've seen you Kristin: We've never met Phil: Oh don't say that! It hasnt been that long. I've just been far too occupied with our boys to visit too much Kristin: Our boys? I made them Phil: And they came out beautiful! I'm so glad Wil and Tech got your eyes. I was hoping they would.

I think that'd be a core part of this AU as well. Everyone is playing pretend but then it just fuzzies and it all becomes real for them. At first its a joke that Phil is her husband and their father but then they get lost in the fantasy and fun of it all and actually accept him as such.

Phil has no ulterior motives either, he's literally just a strange insane man that heard stories about neotrio and started thinking they were his kids one day. He genuinely believes his delusion and they end up accidentally making it a reality.

He just makes lucky guesses and plausible lies often enough that he's still shiny and new, he's still fun to play with and thats what ends up 'tricking' them all.

im writing a full smpronpa review because honestly that fic kinda changed my brain chemistry. this will be bullet point format as i am lazy

okay, so disclaimer- i havent seen smplive so i cant talk about those streamers characterizations. HOWEVER, i had a 3 year long derange danganronpa phase and have been abnormal about technoblade since 2017 so i do consider myself a bit of an expert on those aspects. oh also im taking the poke route and replacing that guy with yahi 👍

- gettin the techno things outta the way. first off, really likes his characterization and how it didnt fall into the trap of “overly bloodthirsty and unemotional” technoblade while still keeping his hitman status from tekkitlive i believe? and his deadpan demeaner. A+

- on the negative side, i will never get forgive the author for missing out his speech quirks like dropping the “g” at the end of words or constant use of “bruh”. additionally, plotwise, i feel like technoblade as the hitman sent after schlatt and co was disregarded a bit too quickly? and also came off as weird considering no one was meant to have any memories?? like why did schlatt and co and techno remember that part??? idk that just confused me but its danganronpa so whatevs

- the talents. they didnt.. feel like they had much of a purpose? like they didnt feel like they added much to the characterization, but that does add something interesting to the fact that the talents were a fake concept all along so i will not say if this was good or bad and will leave it up to you

- speaking of, was there a reason we never found out ty or travis’ talents? like they died and we just never found out what they were or why we didnt know. like. that confused me

- on the OTHER hand. the fake talents imply that yahi made HIMSELF the ultimate comedian which is objectively hilarious. big obama giving obama a medal energy

- poke. girl they did so little with him that i REGULARLY forgot he was there. bro just do SOMETHING with him. however, this is also a classic danganronpa experience so i will accept it

- the third trial kinda went crazy. i liked the twist on two victims to instead be two killers. genuinely an interesting version of the third chapter, and ryan was like.. a weirdly compelling character, especially after that trial

- half of the end twists were just straight ridiculous. im not.. really a fan of the “it was joko actually it was yahi actually it was cooper” thing, but its very sdr2 core so tbh thats fair. on the other hand, what in the world exactly happened to joko????? like he was at the final trial for like a Minute but he was dead beforehand in the flashbacks???? was he a robot????????? im so confused

- also, what was the purpose of charlie fakin his death? once again, very danganronpa of them but fundamentally kinda weird and unnecessary. i understand the in universe explanation but like.. out of universe why was that decision made?

- i would like the give the author massive kudos for the actual murders and trials. as someone who has participated in and even RAN danganronpa fangame rps, that shits HARD. it was pretty well done! not perfect, and some parts were hard to follow but i have ABSOLUTELY seen worse

- i also started really liking angel as a character. i liked the choice to have her actually be a detective lying about her “ultimate” and she felt very genuine and interesting. schlatt also came across as a pretty interesting antagonist with canon-typical confusing motives

- also whatever the fuck joko and cooper had going was gay as HELL. like idk what was up but it was deeply homosexual

- i also liked the way the ending had a sort of commentary on fan culture and the increasing escalation of entertainment for the cruel enjoyment of the masses. very yugioh arc v z-arc core for the like two people who get that reference. im not entirely sure on how WELL it was executed especially within the wider context, but i still found it interesting

thats the general review! ill update this if i realize i forgot stuff but all in all thats what i wanted to say

[lennjamin-o7]

🌯🗡️ back again just to say once more, FUCK MIELLE. I reread the chap again and I cant believe I forgot to include her forgetting Techno fucking exists in the novel. Sis he is only 4 fucking years younger than you and he's achieved what you were literally MADE to do!

Your whole existence hinges on Phil deciding one day "hmmmm me want baby for wife" and you were so unlovable that the second he saw you he stood in the middle of the fucking road for like 5 hours because of how rancid your vibes were until the perfect sonboy known as your baby brother came up and fixed the vibes!

I just wanna see Mielle get her ego ripped to fucking shreds at this point. She's had it too good for far too long.

Felix isn't off the fucking hook either Mr."I should turn you and your horse into fucking glue" isn't nearly as innocent as like I first read him as. Like I tried give him just a smidge of wiggle room and he decked me in the face for it. I hate the both of them so much, Techno will need so many snuggles when the custody battle is over.

I have no idea how I missed that shit, I must've been in fucking shock at these egregious actions against the perfect baby boy. If they act like this here imagine how they acted at fucking home. Techno trying to copy his brother?? And then being mocked for it????? I'm in shambles. Shattered.

Both Techno's siblings are utter dogshit and its a CRIME that they even have a similar appearance to Tommy and Wilbur. Brown fluffy hair? Wilbur Sootification. Blond hair blue eyes? Tommy Innitification. I don't make the rules. Would Wilbur lose an archery contest to a 12 year old while he's like 20? ABSOLUTELY. Would he ever be anywhere near this mean to Techno?? Never in a million fucking years.

Simply cannot wait for the boy to get got. Yoinking needs to initiate immediately. SOS as Save Our Souls? Nah bro its Save Our Sonboy. Save him from these crimes committed against him, Philza Minecraft, patron saint of son stealing.

Idk how but all that has only just set in for me, but anyway, enjoy this small additional side meal of rage flavoured brainrot. A rare 🌯🗡️ anon delicacy!

Yeah, but did Mielle ACTUALLY forget or did she do that because she knows that it makes Techno feel bad. The world may never know...<3 <3 <3 <3

Bro, Phil was standing there SO LONG. Just completely flabbergasted that Mielle actually existed and acted like that. Who does that? Who is that rude? How dare they????? ABSOLUTELY rank vibes.

Mielle has lived a pampered life for sure. Literally, never had a bad day.

Yet.

Felix I try to write as that one person you know that says hateful things like they are joking. You know the kind. They laugh at it and make it sound like a joke so that when you are actually hurt by it, they can brush it off as "I was just joking".

The similarities between Tommy and Wilbur were not intentional lololol. But it is a very funny parallel.

<3 <3 <3 <3 I loved the brainrot. Feel free to send more whenever you get the chance.

[bonesandthebees]

that ties into the fact that we have no idea whatll happen to wilbur afterwards

I would love to believe that he wont be forced into any roles (maybe even get to figure out his relationship with clara, communicate it out with her in a way or something tho that is very hopeful and foolish) and get to live as a person if he wishes to (which im confident to say he does)

he has phil on his side (and surely also tommy, niki techno, some other deathlings too) and I would even dare to believe eret wouldnt force him into a strict role like that, plus he did agree to the plan but im not sure if that really accounts for any insurance

but does any of that really matter if he still keeps getting visions

at this point it doesnt feel like enough for wilbur to get to be a person while still getting and relaying vision, bc there is deep rooted trauma

I think he either ignores the visions or fixes his relationship with clara ig (idk how that could even happens but it would definitely be very interesting ngl)

not sure if that makes sense but in general im just praying for some closure and freedom for him, my boy deserves at least that

wilbur has made some insane progress lately and it can be seen, especially in the last chapter and I go over that in my comments but just trusting more in general, less afraid to break pythia rules, ... im so proud of him

what I do want to point out is how, despite the deathlings being his friends/family now, the good ones basically, and even kristin being more there than clara ever really was, wilbur still doesnt like kristin and doesnt want to be a deathling

like hes with them and hes one of them in a way, but hes not a deathling, he isnt switching to kristin just bc he hates clara

and I absolutely love that, bc while switching to being a deathling would make sense, his journey here is about discovering himself, without the influence of anyone else, especially not goddesses (I think if he werent chosen as the pythia he wouldve been an atheist, talking to q about it was very intriguing to him)

on completely different note I noticed that the kind of visions wilbur receives (or maybe how he perceives them) is relevant to how he feels about something rn, like the vision about escaping vs the new vision being confused bc hes confused

not sure if thats what's actually happening but it feels like it

and ofc I cant forget, THAT SANDDUO SCENE? WITH THE NAME REVEAL? BONES YOUR SANDDUO ARE EVERYTHING TO ME

so unbelievably proud of wilbur for how far hes come and prying this all goes well and he gets to live the life he deserves

and a mandatory "the pythia"/"wilbur" narration changes bc I dont think ill ever be normal about that, it just always gives every moment even more meaning, its genius

2/2

hm... while it would be great for wilbur not to be forced into any more roles he IS still clara's chosen. he is still going to receive visions of the future whether he wants them or not. and that means something even if he doesn't want it to.

guess you'll have to wait and see how that turns out :)

yeah the thing is I think a lot of readers expected wilbur to switch to kristin since she's the 'opposite' of clara in a sense, but that's not the route i wanted to go down. wilbur's trauma is so deeply ingrained, any kind of religious institution leaves a bad taste in his mouth now. the past ten years of his life have been dictated by the rules of the divine, but he doesn't want that anymore. he wants to step away from the divine entirely, and get the experience he's been denied for so long: just being a person.

aaa thank you I loved writing that sandduo scene so much. he's made SO much progress it's been so fun to write his slow character growth throughout this entire fic, and finally reap the rewards.

[antimony-medusa]

See I want to believe that what happened was the result of Techno's passing, and how it might have effected the writers and the story, and then just some writing choices but.

I keep thinking about how Tommy changed the ending of the disc finale after seeing Endgame, and how much he loves Spiderman, and there's absolutely a non-zero chance that he changed or wrote the ending of the finale that way because he watched Spiderman: No Way Home.

Not the spoil that movie, but it ends with the world basically exploding and all the characters forgetting who Spiderman/Peter Parker is and Peter deciding not to tell them who he is and what really happened because he thinks they're safer and better off without him.

I mean, Tommy said he was giving his character a soft ending, something like Jesse Pinkman's ending in his own words. So with that in mind, we have to believe that he probably wrote the finale to be a relatively happy ending. So I don't think we can even pass it off as him writing something sad (and if his intent was to give his character a sad ending, well. I would call it a poor writing choice to be nice).

So... yeah. I mean, mix that with the timing of the streams and everything we're hearing about the state of communication within the server (like Tubbo saying he'd already written an ending and decided not to do it for Tommy's streams that were suddenly happening, and messages never getting answered, and smaller creators getting ignored) and it sounds like it was just all rushed and the writing choices weren't exactly thought out.

idk these are just my thoughts on it

I think that's fair! I think the ending was definitely written by an 18 year old who likes angst and superhero movies, and as we all know, they communicate poorly. There's also an element I think where the fandom placed a higher weight on certain elements of the story (abuse, etc) than the creators were possibly aware of. :D However I think it may be an element even that like, the creators view of the ending as a happy ending can be impacted by IRL events.

I know I wrote what I thought was happy endings in the year I was severely grieving and I go back to those sometimes and go "oh boy, there's a body count here", etc, because my ability to like, include hope or things without a high cost was pretty impacted.

And I don't think anybody has to like the finale or think that it was good, I'm not intending to say that at all. Just when we're rotating "how did this happen", irl stuff might be an element to keep in mind to.

[cherry-soda-molars]

i got bored and analyzed a cool song to relate it to dsmp!tommy so here that is:Tw for mention of suicide and i think drug use?the song is Re-do by Modern Baseball! 10/10 song you should listen if you haven’t!! :D also you should thank @mellorphic for the reason this is being posted lmaoo okok onto the analysis JKBSBFJ--

“I wanna start from the top, maybe like a do-over. Replace the voices in my head with blind innocence”

So this line makes alot of sense for me. Tommy’s life was absolute *shit*. He didn’t have the greatest life so it make sense that he would want a ‘do-over’. Tommy was a kid when he joined the smp, he was childish and impulsive. He was largely innocent of how shitty the world was. He wants that innocence back, he wants to be able to be a kid again. The ‘voices’ in his head could be chat, but thats more of technos thing. I think the voices he’s talking about is his internal thoughts. His suicidal ideation, his impulsive things. C!tommy once said he was everything he didnt wanna be and that really reminds me of this line.

 “I wanna complete re-do, maybe change my name. Report the losses grab the claim, it's a shame it's such a shame” 

Nothing to say about this line besides the ‘its a shame, such a shame’. Tommy *could’ve* had a great life. He *could’ve* been great. Thats not me saying he wasn’t great or anything, i mean great in tommy’s standards. I dont think he regrets a lot of his impulsive actions (dueling dream/giving him his discs for lmanburg/ burning georges house down) but he’s not blind and he does see how they altered his life. He thinks its a shame that he never became anything of himself. He’s not obsessed with legacy or anything, he doesn’t *want* to be something, but he can recognize its a shame.

“We're pissing away our time 'cause we're pissing away these beers. No monumental moment ever came from saying ‘Come on dude, just take one more shot’.”

Nearing the end of the smp, when wilbur left, tommy really as just pissing away his time. He had no one really. He wasn’t *doing* anything with his life. He didn’t have anything to live for and he lived in paranoia and when it came down to it, he’d rather kill himself and everyone else around him than live with the idea that dream was still out there. IK the song is talking about beer when they say ’just take one more shot’ but i think it fits tommy more if their talking about giving something another shot. Tommy isn’t one to give up, he always gives things, people, objects all ‘one more shot’. Almost nothing good ever comes from it though. He’s said he doesn’t believe in second chances, that he believes in people. In not giving up on others. I think thats a bit of dangerous thinking on his part, especially with the people hes always around.

 “Try to, try to forget, that your bones will dismantle And the dreams you had, they'll collide with time”

Tommy wants to forget that he’ll die soon enough. He’s both terrified of and welcoming of his death. I think he wants to forget what limbo is. (btw I'm taking bones will dismantle as a ‘you're gonna die’ type metaphor idk man). Tommy had dreams, ofc he did. He mainly just wanted peace. He wanted a community. He wanted to be friends with so many people and do impulsive things. He wanted to see the good in people, even when there was nothing there. But when he does these things, when he makes friends, when he has a community, it all comes crashing down around him. He cant keep that peace for forever.

“Your unrequited love for life will surely- Halt that I'm thinking way too much at night”

Tommy loves things easily and hard. Including his life at one point, but ofc he hardly receives the same time of love he gives so freely. He doesn’t let him think about this though. He doesnt want to think about his life. He stopped going to therapy, he stopped going out. He started taking invis, so he could feel at least somewhat on the outside what he felt on the inside. invisible.

“Maybe I could just move away or go extinct like a triceratops, But I love loving, watching movies, sitting back and also breathing”

Tommy thinks about how he could just leave the smp like wilbur, he could just sail until he reached land, far far away from the smp. But.. he could also just kill himself. He could just die. C!tommy has made plenty of references to suicide, mainly during exile. He *could* do these things, but he still loves too much. Even with how bad he had it, he still loved doing things. He couldn’t leave without leaving the good things too.

“My family and friends would be crushed, but is it enough? (Oh no, it's not enough)”

His family and friends are not the reason he’s alive. He could say they are, but their not. What has any of them really done to keep him alive anyways? They are not the reason he’s not moving away or ‘going extinct’.

“Oh, the future freaks me out, but I guess I could just, Curl up in a ball and think”

At the end of the smp Tommy doesn’t have any plans for the future, he barely has anyone, he’s so caught up with the past he cant even begin to think of the future unless someone else is leading the conversation. (tubbo and him talking about L’Moonburg) 

Then its just the chorus again, twice but in the second time theres new lyrics in the back 

“Try to, try to forget (I won't be breaking any barriers) That your bones will dismantle and the dreams you had (so I'll keep thinking the future) They'll collide (future freaks me out) With time, your unrequited love for life (I won't judge you if you think the same) Will surely halt that (so let's keep thinking) I'm thinking way too much at night (well the future, the future freaks us out)

This feels like a conversation between tubbo and tommy, with the parentheses being tubbo and the normal part that i’d already analyzed as tommy. Tubbos more hopeful at the end of the smp, talking about L’moonburg, excited to start a new country with tommy. He’s not planning on doing anything new he’s not breaking any barriers. He’s just thinking about the future they’re gonna have together as co-presidents, as best friends. Of course, the future freaks him out too, but he doesn’t keep himself from thinking about it like tommy. He understands why tommy’s afraid though, he wont judge him for it. He knows it freaks both of them out but he wants a future together so he tells him to keep thinking. <3

----

ANYWAYS! That was it ^^ I’m open to critism and i’d love to hear yalls thoughts too! sorry for any typos tho ^^

if i was artistic enough i’d draw the ending part like a convo between tubbo and tommy. who knows i might do it anyways LMAO

[angelxxreaper]

do you believe in ghosts and/or aliens?

share a secret

what do you consider to be romance?

18. do you believe in ghosts and/or aliens?

I kind of have to lol. We see ghosts floating around from time to time.

But Aliens?? Absolutely. Our universe is way too big to not have any aliens lurking around in there. There is definitely some kind of alien species out there dude.

37. share a secret

One time I saw a spider on Techno's toothbrush and I just. nom. I decided not to tell him about it.

11. what do you consider to be romance?

Uhhh... Idk. It's like finding something you didn't know was missing. It's kind of like, for me, wanting to learn about someone and missing them when they aren't there. I mean sure, we chase each other around with guns sometimes, but it's kind of.. idk. It's not like I take just anyone out to picnic under the moon. I think in some other life it would be really cool to grow old with her

[thebleedingeffect]

Couple hours late but here’s aro questions for you

2. 4. 5. 9. 15. 16. 25. 27. 32. 35. 38. 44. 45. 50. aaaand 53. :] enjoy

Oh my gosh so many!many!! YES yes I love oversharing and talking about aro stuff ty so much for giving me the opportunity and don't worry about it ^-^!

2. How would you describe your identity?

I'm pretty happy and content with the label of aroace agender to describe myself! Really I'm just vibing and gender is a mystery to me so that's just part of my identity now lmao

4. Are you romance favorable, neutral, or repulsed?

Oof, this one is slightly complicated but I would say I lean slightly more on the repulsed side as I just can't see myself ever being in a straight up romantic relationship and tbh, I don't want to SJSJSJ

5. What kind of attraction do you feel?

PLATONIC!! PLATONIC, with a little dash of queer platonic to spice things up but im a big old sucker for platonic affection and love over literally any over kind of love lmao. Call me your friend or just friend terms and I'll be falling over myself

9. What made you realize you were aspec/arospec?

Okay so, funny story about that, I unironically figured out that I was aro thanks to techno. I found it out cause I kept reading queer platonic em duo stuff and every time techno talked about his love for philza but zero romance attached to it I was just like....... Oh....... another thing is that weirdly the dsmp fandom is just the only one that I've ever seen actual aspec rep IN the fandom content itself

15. What made you realize you wanted a queer platonic relationship?

I think the one thing I do like in the idea of romance is the loyalty and commitment attached to it which is how I began wanting a queer platonic relationship. That type of love that feels like home but without the romantic expectation and just creating your own definition of love with your partner is the dream for me :]

16. What confuses you about typical romantic relationships?

So many things you have absolutely no idea. I've never really understood the whole physical longing thing and having someone take up all of your thoughts and decisions to a worrying degree. I've never got wanting to act in an idealized way so that your crush might like you cause what's the point? I've never got how love confessions are this big relationship changing thing cause I just don't care and never thought of romantic love as a concern. Grade school was hell man SJSJSJ

25. Are you good at flirting? Do you flirt often?

I don't really think I flirt?? Idk if compliments can be seen as flirting as I love being nice and complimenting people but I, don't think that's flirting?? Im hopeless at this whole flirting thing just throw me to the curb

27. Do you enjoy seeing romance irl/online/in media/etc.?

Irl it's kinda impossible to avoid romance so I've just gotten really good at ignoring it in that context! But in media and online? I'll fully admit that my romance repulsion comes out really hard and I don't like seeing or reading romantic content if I can help it. God the amount of blocked shipping tags that I have in my filters SJSJJS

32. Come up with the stupidest way to ask someone out, right now!

Hey baby wanna find out how I can make this heat wave even worse?

(was that good? I have absolutely no fucking idea SJSJSJS)

35. Do you enjoy valentine's day?

For the sweets and chocolates? Yes, for the romance? Oh god no, I always end up staying completely offline for that entire day cause I get so annoyed that it's just better for me to play video games or something sjsjsj I do enjoy the red, white, and pink aesthetic though, it's cute! ^-^

38. How many arospecs do you know irl/online?

Fun fact! My wife is actually on the aro spectrum herself! :DD I love her so much she found out she was aro a bit after me and its been great lmao. All in all I believe I only know two aro people overall? Which is a crime I need to make more aro friends but making friends is so hard sjsjsj

44. Do you have an aro ring? Do you want one?

I don't have one yet but I've been thinking about getting one! :D it's just a really pretty and lovely idea so I genuinely might do it, that is if my brain allows me to wear a ring lol

45. Do you have an ace ring? Do you want one?

Gonna get both so I can give the simultaneous finger to both sex and romance SHSHSJ

50. Any arospec headcanons

YES, LIKE YOU HAVE NO IDEA. Loz wise I strongly believe oot link and hyrule warriors link to be on the aro spectrum!! ^-^ I mean, oot link literally ignored a whole ass marriage proposal so hard that I half believe the fact Ruto was interested didn't even REGISTER. hw link is so extremely funny to me cause the IDEA of him being aro and being chased by an evil sorceress is the embodiment of my poor aro meow meow. He didn't ask for this, he didn't want it, he doesn't even understand what's the big deal about romance WHY is she destroying REALITY FOR IT!!!

53. What is the best part about being aro?

The relief of knowing that I don't have to force myself to find or force myself to pretend that I feel romantic love. The relief that I can be my genuine self and be happy in the different forms of love that bring me happiness instead of what society expects of me. The fact that I have a name to explain what I've been experiencing my entire life and the fact that people reflect my thoughts have brought me more comfort than you can imagine. It's the relief of knowing I don't have to act or sell myself for a nonexistent partner and instead pursue the queer love that I've always dreamed of. It's the fascination of exploring the very foundation of love and how I interpret it by having a complete absence of romantic love but so much love for other things. For me being aro is comfort, acceptance, and living with the fact that you are not lesser for not experiencing something that a large amount of people, it's finding happiness in that absence as it allows you to instead fill that space with what you choose to love. It's carving out a little space for that queer love whenever it arrives and it fits perfectly within all the other things you've given love to, so much so that you never even think of how you may be different or may never experience something that everyone else cause you're so incredibly happy with what you have! That you could never think or want anything else, that's what being aro is for me and I've been much happier with my identity ever since I realized that ^-^

[eggmeralda]

music asks: 2, 4, 6, 11, 29

2. favourite genre(s)

I'll listen to absolutely anything at this point but these are the main genres I've had significant phases over (in chronological order from 2013-present bc I am Obsessed with chronology and periodisation I guess)

70s punk

Classic rock

Psychedelia

Generic indie

Irish folk, and also other folk music from random countries (went through a massive ethnomusicology phase in 2017)

Dream pop

The kind of early '10s pop music that my preteen self would've hated

Eurodance

Pop punk

Shoegaze

Hardcore techno

currently not going through a Massive Genre Phase so atm I'm just listening to various combinations of these things. + Many More...

Wait actually no forget all that my no. 1 favourite genre is probably power pop

4. a lyric you like

I'm not much of a lyricy person, it's only in the past year and a bit when lyrics would actually start affecting me, but I've always loved "If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar, and I'll walk right through hell just to buy you a jar" from More Pricks Than Kicks by Shane MacGowan and the Popes, idk why it's just a really nice lyric, + it's been one of my favourite songs since I was 17 so yeah <3

6. a song you’ve had on repeat lately

Been banging out Life in a Northern Town by The Dream Academy and Then She Appeared by XTC so much in the past few days

11. a popular song you think is Good, Actually

every One Direction song is actually a banger, contrary to what my 13yo self believed. But if we're going with a specifically popular song, What Makes You Beautiful is genuinely one of the best songs ever written

29. what do you look for in a song or artist?

I have such a type when it comes to music and it's actually awful, like you could present me any song in any genre, but as long as it's in A and has some jangly guitar or dreamy synth and uses a 1-1-4-5 chord progression and maybe a descending 1-7-6-5 bit somewhere in the vocal melody, I will absolutely lose my mind and play it on repeat for days.

I do listen to other types of music but that's such bait for me it's actually shocking

I have a really specific criteria of what I look for in a song that isn't necessarily just the above thing, but I can't describe it in words, I only know when I hear a song whether or not it ticks any boxes.

When looking for an artist, I'll just find a song that I become obsessed with and then hope the rest of the artist's songs have similar vibes.

There are exceptions though, like when there's a song that doesn't really tick any boxes, but it does remind me of a fictional character, so although it might not do much to the Enjoying Music area of my brain, it does however give Blorbo Thoughts, which basically causes an equal response. But yeah

thanks for the ask 💞

[barbiegirldream]

Cause i’m feeling like it and Ciara is a friend and seeing slander and misinfo is always annoying. Let’s go through @twifox-the-queer’s fun little analysis of Ciara they so helpfully put in a google doc 

-No one has to know what Hermitcraft or anything off the DSMP is if they don’t want to. However DSMP fans across the board have often faced unwarrented negativity from Hermitcraft stans if you’re wondering where we’re coming from

-She absolutely knows what SBI is and who’s in it what? 

-Absolutely wrong she can for sure have crit of Dream he hasn’t done anything worth even wondering about lately. And it’s tiring as hell to rehash old drama that was either fake in the first place or apologized for. 

-Yeah I think Ciara can actually tell the difference between the Florida Man and the green murder guy she just happens to like them both a lot. 

-Again no one has to care at all about other forms of Minecraft content. That’s just quite simply not how things work.

-You seem to actually have an issue with the idea that people outside of the Dream Team can be worthy of crit so I don’t see how this is a problem on her. Go look in the Dream neg tag if that would make you feel better I guess. 

-Superiority or inferiority pick one pls. Anyways weird how you go on and on about mental health and neurodivergent and never once stopped to think of her in any way but neurotypical. and this isn’t criticism what you’re doing btw just so you know

-You’re literally just making stuff up at this point. No one defends everything Dream has said and done not even Dream. You have constructed a narrative in your head and with no evidence are trying to impose the caricature of what you believe a toxic Dream stan to be on the blog of the day you think harassing is okay 

-She actually likes Techno so no fucking clue where you got any of that from. 

-you quite simply defined empathy here so not sure if you really even bothered to google stuff

-Fun thing about fiction you don’t have to care that the bad guy is the bad guy. You know the Avengers? remember when Loki killed all those people? I thought it was great and funny and he was the best. No one would have called me a idk hostile takeover mass murderer apologist? Like you need to think about the terms you are using and the context you are using them in. It is absolutely inappropriate to call someone a real life abuse apologist because you personally can’t handle differing opinions about a fictional media. She can say c!Dream is the hero of the story and that he’s done no wrong ever and you can shut the fuck up and get over it, it doesn’t effect you in anyway. 

-No one is being called a freakshow for mental illness it’s for things like starting drama for no reason other than to be annoying... kinda like you’re doing now. Someone starting a spectacle for attention. if you were offended you could say something. but like dude ableism is not when someone on the internet calls you out for being weird towards them. 

-The kys jokes she makes with her friends are quite simply none of your business grow up a little 

-Please for the love of god do not throw around terms like that when you clearly do not know what they mean. As someone who does suffer from intense paranoia and derealization sometimes her blog is fine everything is taggable she’s completely open to tagging. You are spreading dangerous misinfo by just adding buzzwords in here 

-not sure why you added stuff about the lore onto this incredibly inappropriate call out doc but sure let’s go with it you straight up disproved everything you said about the sympathy thing right here so A+

Anyways all in all you should really sit down and think about what you’re doing here. It’s not healthy. I’m all done interacting here but I hope you take some of this to heart and hopefully move on to other things to occupy your time.

[salted-caramel-tea]

anyway here’s DSMP streamers based on how they’d fair with me in a fight

Details as for why I decided on these ranks under readmore

link to tiermaker

Would beat the shit out of them

Tommy- what’s his lanky ass gonna do?? Stop me???

George- ‘oh but salty, he’s a recovering hypebeast!! He’s not the uwu baby everyone thinks he is’ I know and I am perfectly aware, but he’s not alpha enough to defend himself against these hands. Sure he’s a 🤪crackhead 🤪 but what’s that gonna do against me. He would simply raise his arms as a shield and say ‘ow :(‘ until he surrenders.

Jack manifold- he has it coming.

It’d be close but id win

Fundy- he’s lanky, but he has height on me. I could beat the shut out of his shins but he could definitely push me over and I simply would not get back up. id kick his legs.

Quackity- I almost put him in the first category. Almost. But I feel like he’d get a random spurt of energy and almost take me down

Hbomb- I just feel like I could take his ass down. He’d injure me for sure, but I could do it.

Antfrost- it’s not homophobic if I’m also part of the el gee bee tea community. I’m scared that red would beat me up but not that scared

Tubbo- the kids unhinged. He’d be pulling these weird ass attacks yelling about some random shit I don’t understand and eventually tire himself out so that I can take him down easily

Karl- I feel like he has good defences. But his shins are unprotected.

Fair fight

Dream- He has height on me so he could theoretically beat the everloving shit out of me but his feet are fucking massive (clown) and that’s what I target

Techno- the only thing stopping me from winning is his height, this man spends all his time farming potatoes I could clart him if he wasn’t a giant

Puffy- we are the same height.

Hannah- we have too much respect for the others eyeliner to do any real damage

It’d be close but they’d win

Sapnap- he’s polite. He’s a sweet little Texas man. But I do also believe him when he said he’d rock chats shit with the meanest uppercut if they ever tried to fight him. He’s been through a lot with chat. I believe him.

Connor- I was going to say I could beat him up, but looking that little face in the eyes made me feel something akin to fear. I don’t think he has the ability to absolutely beat the shit out of me. But he could win.

Ranboo- this kid moves like a cartoon character. 90% of the fight is just him bouncing around me not actually making any hits. I attack the shins (again). He utilises his gargantuan height and picks me up rendering me useless. I have lost the fight.

Charlie- unassuming, but ripped.

Alyssa- she’d be easy on me, get bored and then clart me. I believe in her

Would absolutely clart me

Wilbur- I’ve seen the vlogs. Man would not hesitate to tackle me just like he did Tommy. I have been murdered by Wilbur Soot.

Bad- can and will cut me, carries a gun on him at all times.

Skeppy- he’d just straight up beat the shit out of me idk what to tell u

Purpled- see above

Punz- Chad.

Philza- threatened to punt jack manifold into the sun. I believe him.

Could batter me but simply wouldn’t

Niki- this girl can be scary I’ve seen her talk to her chat about the way men treat her pop off queen you could absolutely batter anyone but only would hurt the people who wrong her and I would never do that to her

Sam- golden retriever, sweetheart. So sweet and wonderful. Could punt me if he wanted to but he’s too nice for that

Foolish- himbo: beefy, dumb and kind.

Eret- 6’3 +7 inch platforms, dangerous but it’s not practical it’s ✨ fashion ✨

Ponk- I wholeheartedly believe ponk could clart me but would absolutely hesitate because she’s very sweet and I love them hashtag lemon society

Simply would not fight in the first place

Callahan.

[ranboo5]

lore take! it's not that i don't think c!techno believes in anarchy and is genuine in wanting to destroy oppressive hierarchies, but i do think that that's not the only thing motivating his actions. like sometimes i see c!techno defenders talking about c!techno's thought process behind doomsday or the prison break like he's just a mouthpiece for Pure Righteous Anarchist Ideology when idk, that's just not all there is to him! yes he destroyed lmanberg because it was a corrupt government that was violating human rights, but he also did it because he almost died and saw his friend needlessly caged, like there was definitely selfish motivation there also, y'know? plus, i'm personally convinced that even though he had been planning to destroy lmanberg before that, he would not have been nearly as brutal about it if he was not feeling personally betrayed by c!tommy immediately prior, like there was definitely some level of "you hurt me so i want to hurt you back" going on there imo. basically what i'm saying here is, c!techno is obviously an anarchist, but he's a person who thinks with his emotions first and foremost.

SO TRUE SO BASED SO ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!!!!! ANON YOU GENIUS

This is Exactly one of the things I dislike the most in some Techno enjoyer circles tbh. It's not super prevalent but it happens wherein like. Whether smth is ic for Technoblade or an appropriate thing to do is judged on the axis of Is This The Picture Of Anarchist Praxis. IT ISN'T! HE ISN'T!!! HE IS NOT A PRAXIS MACHINE!! HE'S A PERSON!!!! This directly INFLUENCES his anarchy like do you think he's an anarchist just because!! No!!! He's an anarchist because he wants the world to be a better place to be for himself and his loved ones he is SO emotions ALL the time and it's BECAUSE OF THAT CARE that he is an anarchist the anarchy is the CODIFICATION and EXECUTION of that care and it's a codification and execution he is explicitly WORKING ON all his arc!!!!!!

[shoezuki]

Sorry to drop a whole lot of text out of nowhere but my rage needs an outlet and you are the great ringleader of based takes on tumblr.

But I hate how hypocritical mcyt twitter is in the way they will justify attacking fans and fanartists for supporting a specific content creator but absolutely refuse to even think about attacking their favorite ccs for supporting and being friends with that same cc. If they feel so strongly that this cc they despise is so terrible that it justifies attacking the fans, why does it not go through their head that someone who is legit friends with them could be terrible by association?

And any time this is even suggested to some twitter users, the immediate response is "I can't control who my fave is friends with" or "I don't have to like them bc they are friends with my fave" which are two points that completely miss the reasoning for pointing this out. If they can't control who their fave is friends with, why do they think they can control the fans that support the cc? And in no way does suggesting this mean they have to like said cc, at this point it is not even about that cc. They are free to dislike any cc for any reason but there is a huge difference between disliking a cc + not engaging with their content And going out of their way to find any excuse to attack the cc + their fans.

This is about realizing the dissonance in what they are currently doing, which is the whole reason someone would point this out. If they did recognize this, they'd then have to answer two very loaded questions for themselves: "Why am I willing to excuse my favorite content creator being friends with someone I believe is so terrible that I will attack fans relentlessly for supporting?" and "If I truly believe my favorite content creator is not a terrible person themselves, is this other content creator not as bad as I currently believe they are and if so, should I stop sending threats to their fans who have already come to this conclusion?"

Anyway this long rant is mostly fueled by my frustration with everything happening still with Technoblade and Technotwt + Fanartists who draw Techno obviously, but it really does apply to a lot of creators (and their respective fanbases) in mcyt who continue to get hit with so much shit on that platform by the fanbases of their own damn friends despite the cc having grown from what they were initially called out on and their fans and friends(!!!) being aware of exactly that.

Also idk if they realize this but nearly every fandom space outside of mcyttwt will cancel by association, so the more that Dream SMP fans there argue that half the members of the server are terrible people and attack any mention of them, the worse every other member of the server looks to outsiders.

genuinely youre so fucking right.

ppl tend to have this. extremely hypocritical idea that like. fans of 'bad' ccs? horrible people. but the ccs they Love who are friends w said 'bad' cc? well They Cant Tell Their Faves What To Do OBVIOUSLY

its this. like. clearly a mixture of jus Not respecting or understanding other people n their interests, And this kind of pedestal they put certain ccs on. like. i cannot COMPREHEND how they just Dont Understand that. if ppl are Horrible for enjoying techno's content, then the ccs he's friends with who support n love him Must be Extremely Horrible by that logic.

its like. illogical and jus spineless TBH. they say that such ccs need to be 'cancelled' or whatever, but they make exceptions or will Have to watch streams n videos. cant even hold to their own

its jus.... weird. its so weird n fucked up n like you said i dont doubt that 90% of ppl who have no clue of these mcyters or the dsmp will see the kinda drama that goes on and assume that theyre all just Horrible people

[enderspawn]

ayup lads im still upset abt doomsday fjdsklfjk

lmanberg wasn't irredeemable imo. tommy's exile was prompted mainly by dream and tubbo gave in to prevent a war they werent ready for. butchers army was semi-democratically made (if i remember correctly) and, beyond unrightful execution without trial, arguably HAS a right to try criminals who've acted against the country. yes, there were some issues but it was never beyond reform. quackity was the most corrupt part of the system tbh (like w using butcher army as a way to gain personal power, not as justice for new lmanberg), but without him things like the butchers army likely wouldn't've even existed since tubbo opposed it at first. hell, they were planning another election! an open and fair election for everyone!

but more so than possible lmanberg redemption, ppl acting like its destruction was politically motivated is.. well kind of wrong. maybe partially, but in general i dont think of it as a politically-motived event when you look at every persons motivations.

yes, techno is an anarchist! but 1. a large part of his reason for destroying lmanberg was as revenge against its members (such as the butchers army, and partially feeling betrayed by tommy, "I will repay that injustice 1000 times over") and not due to its existence AS a government and 2. tbh he chose the shittiest form of anarchy: dog-eat-dog, where he doesnt help the individuals empower themselves (admittedly, more so after pogtopia happened) and instead just destroys any power structures they create so that they have to struggle alone to gain power.

i'm sure you can point to feeling betrayed by pogtopia's existence as a reason for techno to not do that again! but like... idk man. if techno as a character was less emotional and reactive, it wasnt too late to try and convince new lmanberg in its formation to abandon its hierarchy instead of immediately turning to withers and destruction. hell, if i remember correctly (though i know its a point of contention and may have been reconned, so ignore if so, but) a few ppl mentioned wanting to coop manburg to get back in power to techno but he ignored them w the idea that they'll "cross that bridge when we come to it". even if thats incorrect, he still did the same thing with tommy before doomsday. he knew the person he allied with did not want the same destruction as him, but instead of trying to convince his ally/allies otherwise, he ignores the issue until its too late and he gets hurt.

i know thats literally just three of c!techno's character flaws, so its pretty damn unlikely to be changed but still something i wanted to mention + bring up, bc its a very valid point when critiquing techno and his actions. his feelings regarding how he was treated by pogtopia was massive in his character and how he treats spreading anarchy: after all, they don't learn via him fighting along side them like brothers (like he said to quackity before their fight). violence is the only universal language they would understand.

c!techno in general as a symbol of anarchy is all abt dismantling, but never about building something new in its place. it means the ppl he helps dont, for lack of a better word, "know better". they make a hierarchy bc its what they know and then techno gets mad they did and destroys it again without ever proposing any kind of compromise. for others, techno's form of anarchy seems like it is solo-people only because they dont know how to have a group in a anarchistic ""techno-approved"" way.

dream was destroying it for personal revenge against the country's existence and to hurt tommy. while yeah you can say that wish for destruction is somewhat political since his grudge goes back to before the revolution, i still say it feels more personal. he doesn't have issue w lmanberg as a government, he has issues w lmanberg due to his own personal ambitions. he wants total control of the server and lmanberg revolts against that hope. plus, destroying lmanberg would help absolutely destroy tommy, which is always a plus for dream who adores harming tommy and sees it as a fun game.

hell, id say PHIL was the most politically motivated, but still a LOT of his motivation is personal first which happened to impact his political opinons (though i admit im incredibly biased towards him/against the other two): he believes people being in positions of power corrupts them (such as wilbur and tubbo) and wanted to remove it to prevent that position harming anyone else. combined with his unresolved grief over losing wilbur and his negative interactions with the butcher army, he ultimately decides to destroy lmanberg itself. remove the source of the issue directly instead of working WITH the citizens to reform away from any kind of direct power. tbh, with past negative experiences, you could say none of the doomsday trio was in a place to work beside lmanberg, but phil is probably the most likely to have (since he was part of lmanberg and (i think??) part of the cabinet briefly). he shows some regret now abt the severity of doomsday, but he doesn't regret he did it because in his eyes he truly needed that hierarchy GONE. a necessary evil. but i doubt hed have that same guilt if they went abt it in a less.... tbh shitty way.

idk man like i said i Hate doomsday, i just. even from an anarchy standpoint its such an ineffective and unsympathic way to deal with it. they dont try to help as people, they help as a destructive force. just remove the source of hierarchy! --and take everyones homes and belongings with it. i sincerely hope w the syndicate moving forward we have more of a empowering the ppl and radicalizing them towards genuine collective anarchy (semi-like pogtopia, in that working with the people) and not just more... "haha government bad blow it up no more government :]]"

[rc-dragons]

@aaxooli gave me permission to tag them in some of my cat!dsmp artwork, which quickly made me realise that i havent posted hardly any of it lmao

so ill go in order of finished pieces, to concept art/sketches, to animations/animatics!

first up is finished works:

"The House Always Wins", featuring Quackity!

"And Icarus Fell", featuring Philza! This is depicting when he lost his wings protecting someone (I believe it was Wilbur) from the explosion at L'manburg

"Allium Glen"; I drew this back when Ranboo was doing a ton of heavy lore and I thought c!ranboo deserved a break from all the angst to ske a nap in a field of his favorite flower.

next is sketches/concept art!

heres captain puffy! super thick, curly fur, with a marbled taby pattern in a honey color. I don't know if ill keep the bell or not, but i do think its quite cute :3

this is ponk's design; after the unfortunate events that transpired between him and sam recently I figured he needed a full design sketched out. I thought tortoiseshell would fit his head thing on his skin well :)

foolish! my friend zibs (@dr.zibs on tiktok) was the one to come up with him having the shark features + the sphinx-like neckpiece, and i sketched out this design with those ideas in mind.

philza! featuring his clothes (that techno, who can be seen in the top right of the screen, totally didnt help him make it, why would he ever do that /s) that help keep his desert-cat build warm up in the tundra.

corrupted!ranboo design! this was an idea zibs and i had came up with, where, somehow, ranboo's enderwalk state became permanent, and he lost much of what he was. this was actually tied into something with karl, the in between, and the other side, but that would take Wayy too long to explain and is rather convoluted lol

1/2-2/3 of the cast of the dsmp has designs, but I only felt comfortable uploading art that had been done by me, so theres plenty of designs that are missing. i really recommend checking zibs out; their art is absolutely incredible and theyre a joy to work with!

next up is animations/animatics!

this was a lipsync practice animation i did with awesam; took i think 2 hours??? i spent a long time fighting w/ the program so idk how much time was actually spent drawing

i also have a very cute video of ranboo + michael, but tumblr wont let me post more than one video in the post. alas 😔

zibs and i mainly work together on animatics, which can all be seen on their tiktok!

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMeyedwSS/

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMeye2W9d/

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMeyeFULB/

on all of these, i did most/all of the sketching, dr. zibs did all the linework (a godsend, truly), i did all the backgrounds, colors, and lighting, and zibs did all the editing and audio work!

this post got. Long but i think its a pretty nice compilation of my work relating to cat!dsmp stuff!

also one final shoutout to @drzibs (@dr.zibs on tiktok) hey are AWESOME to work with and have incredible ideas and incredible artwork ily
