masterlist

TOMMYINNIT

he does the same thing

will rant about anything and everything especially if you're talking about the same thing

but if it's out of the blue like "omg look at this tik tok drama blah blah blah" he just blinks before he's like "oh shit. here we go again"

then you just stop talking after a moment and gets weirdly uneasy with the silence

"can you talk more?"

"about what??"

he just shrugs "I like when you yap away, you're nice background noise"

you dramatically scoff "Okay, asshole"

you're silent for a while and just start revving up the engine again "Holy shit here's another thing, this girl-"

TUBBO

will proudly listen to you yap on about some stupid shit or about lore to a show/movie you're fixated on

he'll ask you questions and stuff

he's used to it dw

you'll go silent for a little while like you're processing new data and he'll just be like "Okay, I think we should do xyz and..."

then you'll like come back to life and start talking again

he secretly sets a timer each time you go quiet until you start ranting again and he'll put it on his stream 💀

"damn, 19 minutes this time"

"Huh? 19 minutes for what?"

RANBOO

nods along and actually listens

dude doesn't care, they're listening to you no matter what

whether it be about serious topics or some silly internet stuff you like, he'll always listen and make sure to note it down that way he can start a conversation with you about something you like or are passionate about

"yknow what I like about the nether?"

"what?" he smiles

"how pretty and diverse it is. yeah you can say the overworld is just as if not more diverse with biomes and stuff, but they could've just left it boring red netherrack everywhere you go and stuff, it adds so much more life-"

they love how passionate about things you can be

if for a very extended period of time, they'll check up on you like "you good?"

you just nod like "I'm tired of talking L"

BADLINU

nods along with you

he doesn't see it as yapping, he sees it as a genuine conversation no matter what you're talking about

adds some stuff in when you like pause to breathe

once you go quiet he can just sit in silence with you forever

this is basically his opportunity to talk to you about like tik tok drama lmao

if you don't know about it at all, all ears open and you're focused

your dynamic 🔛🔝

QUACKITY

you're both yappers let's be honest

constantly talking over each other and play fighting for the most attention out of other people 💀💀

"SHUT THE HELL UP I'M TALKING"

"I WAS TALKING FIRST, LET ME TELL THEM ABOUT MY NEW FAVORITE MOVIE"

then you just get tired of talking and wanna strip mine or something LMFAO

he always checks to make sure he didn't upset you after every time you go silent

it's just by reflex lmao

he does listen to you when you yap about a fixation don't worry

gift inspo goes crazy

NIHACHU

loves when you talk or yap about something you like or some drama you found

she's like your safe person to talk about everything to, she loves having that kind of title for you

"and then xyz"

"Oh my God, really??"

she'll whole ass put everything down just to listen to you talk about dumb shit I swear

she encourages it, like just speak your mind dude

also uses what you talk about as gift inspiration for anything, birthday, valentines day, anytime she wants to get you stuff

half the time you forget what you just said and she recaps you

"Oh, thank you! anyways-"

[dr3amofagame]

tbh i kinda find funny that idea of cdream being like, "we don't have time to wasted on revenge, come on cpunz let's get on the plan" and cpunz being like "well i do have time so move"*sword in hand going to kill*

Like i know it's not like this exactly but cpunz being the one wanting revenge while cdream wants it too but cpunz it's like "can i go there and murder him, right? We should make sure they suffer :D" it's like funny to me idk. I love the idea of cpunz being the more crazy of the two

i mean, as far as the Getting Things Done department goes, it really does look like c!dream was undergoing major difficulties post-prison. sure, Technically he was going for the plan, but after getting the prison again it really does look like a vast majority of his time afterwards was spent in there kind of rotting away. obviously he was still leaving and entering the prison at least a little bit, but at the end we know that c!tommy watches him stay in there for months on end and the whole prison ends up becoming Crazy overgrown in a way that's pretty obviously supposed to do with how Not Well c!dream is after the LN deal, the major goal c!dream outlines multiple times after the prison is that he's Going To Get Quackity okay he's Going To Do It he's Going To Get Revenge He's Totally Gonna-- and then it's more radio silence for months on end and then LN5, where he dips before anyone else and then panics. yes, a lot of this does have to do with ooc reasons, but i don't really think there's just about any reason to believe that he was consistently spending time with...anyone. even when c!dream is looking for communication with c!punz in scrapped lore, it's over a signal, you know? and not face to face (even tho that signal was either hijacked or dream got really unlucky or something) -- which is kind of significant when the communication was about something as major as attacking quackity. for a vast majority of his time in the prison after daedalus, he was being watched, with sapnap apparently stalking him from before he even got the keycards to june at the least and tommy picking up stalking the guy from a tree in september after las nevadas, but it doesn't look like either had any inkling of punz going anywhere near the prison during that time and all. even when you factor in the "experimentation" that punz and dream talk about in the finale streams, it stands to reason that they weren't really doing revivals willy nilly when they discovered that that was causing major issues in terms of the stability of the server--something that they likely discovered pre-prison, when we know they did that initial round of experimentation with vikk and lazar and then themselves in order to prepare for the staged finale and the prison. a lot of this is guesswork, yes, but c!dream's behavior deviates very significantly post-prison in a way that--while it obviously does have to do with matters of the server ooc--still has an effect within canon on how his character is played and perceived, and when compared to his aggressiveness while Getting Things Done and Planning from around mid-pogtopia to the staged finale (and even, honestly, when compared to his being more defensive but still not quite as much hiding from the whole damn world for his characterization pre-plan), it definitely doesn't look like c!dream is meant to be seen as Scheming and Planning Behind The Scenes for most of his time post-prison,,, like, at all. it does, on the other hand, look like hes been spiraling in his own hell much like c!tommy ends up mirroring for us in his own vine-filled little room.

anyway, with that very long tangent aside, it's true that c!dream does kind of obsess over revenge on quackity to some extent post-prison. it's also true that he...doesn't actually ever get super proactive at getting said revenge. both times c!dream pursues revenge on c!quackity, c!punz is involved and meddling to Some degree, even though we don't necessarily know if the signal was actually from c!punz in scrapped lore--c!dream only goes to find c!quackity after he gets a signal on punz's tower for scrapped lore, and the first time we hear about dream's involvement in a Revenge Plan it's from c!punz breaking his cover to c!purpled. when we see c!dream talking about revenge on c!quackity months prior to c!foolish, what he's trying to bargain for sounds much less like wanting something that will aid him for revenge as much as it sounds like something that will aid him in running away--selling his services for a five minute warning--and then when LN5 actually happens, he ditches and has a breakdown about it not very long into the confrontation at all. it's also of note that while c!punz is involved in the planning, he's not actually involved in the getting revenge itself--something that once again happens when c!clingy kill c!dream. c!punz once again breaks his cover by reviving dream in front of tommy and tubbo, but then c!dream is the one who is sent ahead to chase them down terminator style minutes after he literally just died. though it's true c!punz sets off the TNT which could've killed c!clingy if they didn't realize that the super ominous looking hallway stairwell down into the abyss, he doesn't particularly actively go for revenge on his own as much as he encourages c!dream to take revenge and often is the main push for c!dream to take action when otherwise, it does appear that c!dream harbors quite a bit of hesitance (the revenge plan on quackity, for example, which dream stalls for months.)

but yeah! c!punz is angry and he wants c!dream to get revenge on the people that hurt him and encourages him in the direction of doing so quite a few times, in an interesting way when you compare separate instances for the pattern that they establish. it's also interesting that c!punz doesn't appear to be present much at all for either revenge plot on c!quackity, even though he evidently knew details on both revenge plots in order to be able to give c!dream any initial intel in the first place or convince purpled to go along for the murder-quackity ride; scrapped lore has c!dream relying on sam's mercy to go free, after all, and LN5 ends with c!tommy following c!dream all the way back to the prison with c!dream none the wiser and c!punz, apparently, nowhere to be found even when c!tommy continues to watch c!Dream day in and day out for two months without the guy leaving.

[findingjoynweirdstuff]

Can you help find the vod where Sapnap was telling old stories about the dream and l'manberg to Quackity and Karl? Or was it streamed?? Idk, thank you so much for doing what you do!!

That would be Karl's December 4th stream at 1:10:04

I've actually been meaning to take another look at that scene for a while, so I went ahead and transcribed it too while I was at it

---

(Quackity, Sapnap and Karl are walking through the forest looking for cows)

Quackity: “Hey Sapnap, last night at five in the morning I was doing a little bit of Dream SMP lore reading…is it crazy that back in the day, you and Tommy teamed up to kill Dream?”

Sapnap: “Yeah, it’s crazy.”

Quackity: “Can you tell us that story?”

Sapnap: “So, it was – it was very very early on in the SMP, you two were not even born into the world yet. And me and Tommy – well, isn’t it kind of reminiscent? We were fighting against a tyrant to keep – to keep the discs. And you know what? And you know what? We won. We took him down and we kept the discs, and then I wasn’t on for the other days so then they lost them BUT THE DAY I WAS ON, we won! And we kept the discs safe.”

...

(They find the cows)

...

Quackity: “Tell us some stories. Tell us some stories, Sapnap. You are like – so interesting, tell us some stories.”

Sapnap: “Would you like to know about the first great war?”

Karl: “Yes! Tell us about the first great war, Sapnap!”

Sapnap: “It was a bloody war. It was the original L’manburgian squad of Tommy, Wilbur, Tubbo, Fundy and Eret versus – versus the Dream, or, I think it’s also known as Team Chaos.”

Quackity: “Team Chaos?”

Sapnap: “Consisting of me, Dream, Georgenotfound and Punz. And the war started out as I suppose you’d expected, with us making the L’manburgians fall back. They couldn’t take on our firepower, yeah.”

Karl: “That’s not how I’d expect it.”

Sapnap: “They couldn’t take it on.”

Quackity: “They don’t put that in the books.”

Sapnap: “No, they don’t. But as the war waged on, we gave them a false sense of victory – we started falling back, and for what reason you may ask? Well—we had a traitor among them. His name was Eret.”

Karl: “No…and what did he trade to you?”

Sapnap: “Well, he was a trai-tor. Not a trader. And so, Eret led the unknowing ‘Lamburgians’ – quite frankly, to their doom. He brought them into a room in which we were hiding behind the walls.”

Quackity: “What?!”

Sapnap: “And he pressed a button that opened up the wall doors. And we flooded in, flying at the ‘Lamburgians’ at full strength intent to kill with Strength, Speed, Fire Resistance, anything you could imagine. And well? We slaughtered them and ended the war right there. BUT!”

Quackity: “What?! They lost?!”

Sapnap: “They lost…”

Quackity: “But they said they win – they won!”

Sapnap: “They did win their independence because…well…funny enough, they won their independence not through their means of battle, but Tommy challenged Dream to a one-on-one bow duel. Winner take all. The discs – his – you lost your cow – his discs on the line. Who do you think won that duel?”

Karl: “Who?”

Sapnap: “Dream won the 1v1 duel.”

Quackity: “What?”

Karl: “Okay I really don’t understand how that gives them the independence.”

Sapnap: “Oh I’m sorry, I’m sorry – the discs weren’t on the line at that point. It was for L’manburg’s peace, for L’manburg’s independence because Dream was – well, he was far confident in his skill so he accepted the 1v1.”

Karl: “And he won.”

Sapnap: “So I believe Tommy offered him one disc because he lost – lost L’manburg’s independence.”

Quackity: “So he traded the disc – wait, he traded the disc for the independence of L’manburg?!”

Sapnap: “But! Dream won, so Tommy offered him I believe both the discs in exchange for L’manburg’s freedom.”

Karl: “And now Dream exiled him.”

Sapnap: “Yeah.”

Quackity: “Wait, Tommy gave Dream the discs for independence?”

Sapnap: “Yeah. Two of the most powerful discs, most important discs on the server.”

Quackity: “I didn’t know that…I’ve always thought – I always faulted Tommy for being too obsessed with the discs, but he compromised two of them for the independence of the nation?”

Sapnap: “Well, funny enough, funny enough he’s doing the opposite now.”

Quackity: “But I understand it now.”

Sapnap: “Now he’s putting his discs above the nation—”

Quackity: “Sapnap! Sapnap, he’s gonna kill – aw…That’s crazy. I faulted him because I thought that – that Tommy only cared about his discs, but he put them aside for L’manburg at one point.”

Sapnap: “At one point he did.”

Quackity: “And now he’s exiled.”

Sapnap: “But he’s changed a little bit.”

Quackity: “You lost your cow, you lost your cow – well, to be fair, we were all going to war today. There was actually going to be this massive war today, but uh…there was gonna be a war today, but that didn’t end up happening because Tubbo changed plans at the very last second. And…the more you know. The more you know. So uh, do you know anything about the minecart-running-over-Dream-incident?”

Sapnap: “Yes, so…Dream was on the railroad tracks, and Tommy was riding his minecart and, well, quite simply he hit Dream and killed him. And you might be thinking, what is the importance of that, right?”

Quackity: “Yeah.”

Sapnap: “Well I think the importance really lies upon the fact that Dream…he’s not immortal.”

Quackity: “Actually, I – I saw that the um, fact remains that he had Netherite and Tommy stole it, and he tried to bargain with Dream saying he would give his items back if he didn’t give the discs back. I heard that was the uh, situation.”

...

(They interrupt to discuss leading the cows up the hill)

...

Quackity: “Sapnap, you’re so full of so many stories. What do you make of the situation of today? Tommy being exiled?”

Sapnap: “Well, I’m not too sure. I think – on one hand, I think he had it coming ‘cause he couldn’t listen. On the other hand, I’m not sure if it was exactly fair.”

Quackity: “I don’t think it was fair…I think it was a little harsh. I – I was willing to go to war, um, but of course things didn’t turn up quite the way we wanted them to. But at the end of the day, what matters is…” (he trails off)

Karl: “What matters is…We have our cows.”

Sapnap: “What matters is we have Mexican L’manburg.”

Tubbo Is Good At Lore pt 2! Ft. underrated moments like The Compass and Tubbo jumping in front of the firework for Tommy.  Hopefully this manifests him not dying and also doing more cool lore that he enjoys :)

Tommy: Trust me. Jesus- for once in your life, Tubbo, trust me!

Tubbo: I did trust you. Once. The first time all of this happened. And I won’t make the same mistake twice.

—

Tommy: Are you alri- Technoblade killed you!

Tubbo: Technoblade just murdered me! Wilbur said to stay strong, and he’s on our side!

Tommy: I- he was on our side!

—

Tubbo: Hey, I was part of L’Manberg when it was born. I- I’m not just gonna let it get blown up, or… or destroyed.

—

Eret: Down with the revolution, boys!

Tubbo: Wh-

Eret: It was never meant to be.

Tommy: Eret-

Wilbur: Eret, how could you?

Tubbo: Eret, I farmed with you for hours!

—

Quackity: Tubbo, don’t do it.

Schlatt: Tubbo. Tubbo, see to it-

Quackity: I know all I have is a fat ass and that’s the only thing that matters, but I don’t think we should do this-

Eret: Tubbo, no!

Quackity: Tubbo! Tubbo, you have one more chance, you have one more chance-

Schlatt: Tubbo, see to it that the other sign-

Eret: Tubbo!

Schlatt: -is removed.

Quackity: Tubbo…

Tubbo: Yes, Schlatt.

Schlatt: *Evil laughter*

—

Schlatt: I need a book and quill. Yeah, I need a book and quill.

Eret: I’ve got a book and quill, here it- here you go.

Schlatt: Oh my god, look at this…

Tommy: You’ve changed, JSchlatt.

Schlatt: Tubbo, gimme the book!

Tubbo: Sorry, sorry, Schlatt, sorry, Schlatt…

Tommy: Wh- Hey, don’t shout at him like that! What’s wrong with you!?

Quackity: Jesus!

Schlatt: Jeez, this Tubbo guy is getting on my nerves…

Quackity: This… this is so tense, this is too tense, calm down Tommy.

—

Tubbo: I’m not an advocate of violence. I think everyone should just… get along, you know?

Wilbur: I mean, that’s very mature of you, Tubbo, that’s very mature.

—

Tubbo: You should’ve never run against Wilbur, Big Q!

Quackity: You don’t understand, you don’t understand! It could have been worse with Wilbur. Listen, the- you know what happens when power gets to Wilbur’s head, right?

Tubbo: Yeah, but if he had stayed president he would never had hunger for more power, never gone crazy, never wanted to blow the place up!

Quackity: But things could have been worse!

—

Tubbo: Let’s just run away, go into the woods and build a cabin. That’s what Wilbur said before he lost his mind-

Quackity: Really?

Tubbo: He just wanted to go into the woods and build a cabin. That’s all he wanted, man- he was a nice guy, before all this election stuff! He just wanted- he had- he wanted to live a simple life!

—

Tubbo: When we get this back, things are gonna change. Things are gonna change, for the better this time.

—

Techno: -Until there’s no government. Am I understood?

Tubbo: Technoblade, doesn’t- hey, just think of this. Technoblade, doesn’t this kind of make you a tyrant, a form of government?

Techno: The ends justify the means, Tubbo.

Tubbo: Uhhh-

—

Tubbo: Eh, it’s not the first time I’ve had nothing.

—

Tommy: The only thing he wants is the one thing I care about.

Tommy: Well… not the one thing.

Tubbo: Mm. The one thing you care about.

—

Tubbo: We have- we have three days.

Tommy: Tubbo-

Tubbo: I don’t wanna exile you, okay!?

Tommy: This whole war-

—

Quackity: Tubbo, whatever happens in the future, whatever happens-

Tubbo: Yeah, well, in 21 hours, you have to keep in mind, there may not be a future.

—

Tubbo: Oh my god, that is so touching.

Ghostbur: No, but it cost me, like, a netherite, and a lot of stuff, but I- I made it, I-

Tubbo: Thank you, Ghostbur. Aw, man… I miss him so much. I didn’t think it would be this hard.

—

Techno:  I’m choosing what I fight for now. And I’m going to destroy the government, Tommy! You all die!

—

Tommy: How are you? Cause I care, man.

Tubbo: I’m feeling optimistic… But worried,

Tommy: Yeah?

Tubbo: That… You know, if we both die, then no one will know what happened today. And you know, like, if no one knows what happened today, then what’s- there’s honestly no point, y’know? If we both die, then it would all be for nothing. Everything would be for nothing.

—

Dream: Get on.

Tommy: Tubbo- Tubbo, why do you just get on, man!?

Tubbo: Well, I mean, hey, I- at this point, we’re dead either way. Goodbye!

—

Tubbo: Holy crap, what have we done? What have we done!?

Jack: Gotta find clues… I’ve gotta find clues-

Tubbo: Jack! No, no, no. Not now, not now. What have we… What have we done!? We’ve just given someone the power… We’ve just given someone, Jack, the power to wipe out the entirety of Snowchester in the blink of an eye!

—

Ghostbur: Look, how about you tell me- Wait, say it into the Blue,

Tubbo: Okay

Ghostbur: And then we throw the Blue into the lava.

Tubbo: Uh… I… Exiled Tommy because he was a liability to L’Manberg.

Ghostbur: …That’s a lot of Blue.

Tubbo: Yeah, there’s a lot of Blue to be burned.

—

Tubbo: It’s known as Project Dreamcatcher. Mkay? Cause-

Ranboo: Oh, that’s- that’s clever, that’s clever.

Tubbo: Cause if Dream even lays a finger, here - it’s a deterrent for Dream. If Dream even lays a finger here… It’s all gone.

Ranboo: What if he’s- okay, so, what if he- wait, wait, wait, what do you mean by “It’s all gone”?

Tubbo: Everything.

Ranboo: …The entire server.

Tubbo: Everything. But it won’t come to that!

—

Ranboo: But what if Dream is like, “Uhh lmao don’t care,” and he just lets you guys do it? Then- then what?

Tubbo: …Well, then he doesn’t have an SMP anymore, Ranboo.

Ranboo: *stammers*

I think most of you dont understand the point of tales. They are supposed to be satirical and crazy. If quackity, george and sapnap s humour was not to your liking that s a whole another thing, but the characters are not meant to be memorable or interesting. They are not meant to have a lore of their own, the tales are a simple representation of c!karl's powers and how much he can achive with them. Yes, the series has easter eggs that either efect or give information on the current present lore, but that doesnt mean they are meant to be serious. Even karl mentioned that the tales are inspired by that game he used to play on his alt, psychonuts (idk how to spell it i m so sorry lmao), which idk if you watched his game play but that game was all over the place with weird animations that you cant achive in the game so the funky and weird characters are a replacement. Now, as a person who gets over stimulated easily (just today i almost jumped of the car because my dad was clicking his tongue lmaoo), i understand 100% how the loud talking over each other can be annoying. And yes, if the ccs would actually try to do serious lore would the quality be even better? Of course it would. But again, most of you think the tales are a mess because of it but that s just how they are, they re not sad depressing a child is being banished lore. It s a comical representation of karl's powers and the only part that s meant to be serious it s always the end when you see the ACTUAL lore happening. So maybe the tales are not for you, or maybe just this specific lobby of people was not for you, nothing wrong with that. At first, when karl started this series i was extremely critical of it and could not see the point. But tbh it s not that deep, being a comedy is the point.

this is long and you didnt use paragraphs so im breaking this down.

I think most of you dont understand the point of tales. They are supposed to be satirical and crazy.

thats not what satirical means

If quackity, george and sapnap s humour was not to your liking that s a whole another thing, but the characters are not meant to be memorable or interesting.

girl says who. you really telling me we're expected to forget about ranbob? that we werent supposed to be interested by billiam? connor?

They are not meant to have a lore of their own, the tales are a simple representation of c!karl's powers and how much he can achive with them.

... whats robin's village being over run by people with red eyes then? ponk's relative jack from the same episode? the reason for billiam existing at the same time as the wild west episode? whatever tf glatt had going on that one time?

and representation of his powers and what he can do with them. he's literally done nothing. he literally is just a participant. he doesnt use his powers for anything.

and he wont be able to in the greater dsmp because its a fucking live rp medium. you cant go to the recent past or the close future of that without being very careful.

hell, the haunted house episode totally clashes with everything else we know about glatt but we still dont know what the actual difference is.

Yes, the series has easter eggs that either efect or give information on the current present lore, but that doesnt mean they are meant to be serious.

thats not how any of this works oh my god. you cant literally be affecting canon and "non serious" about it at the same time. if its canon i can criticize it.

Even karl mentioned that the tales are inspired by that game he used to play on his alt, psychonuts (idk how to spell it i m so sorry lmao), which idk if you watched his game play but that game was all over the place with weird animations that you cant achive in the game so the funky and weird characters are a replacement

this literally doesnt make sense. funky and weird characters do not impact the level of seriousness of the story. fundy is a fucking fox who came from the toe of a human who had sex with a salmon. that doesnt make his lore any less serious.

i understand 100% how the loud talking over each other can be annoying. And yes, if the ccs would actually try to do serious lore would the quality be even better? Of course it would. But again, most of you think the tales are a mess because of it but that s just how they are, they re not sad depressing a child is being banished lore. It s a comical representation of karl's powers and the only part that s meant to be serious it s always the end when you see the ACTUAL lore happening.

lore doesnt have to be depressing to be serious. and comical??? hm???? that requires it to be funny and portrayed as funny, plus the endings to tales is usually depressing before it goes into the "jesus fucking christ, narrate your goddamn text karl" segment.

So maybe the tales are not for you, or maybe just this specific lobby of people was not for you, nothing wrong with that. At first, when karl started this series i was extremely critical of it and could not see the point. But tbh it s not that deep, being a comedy is the point.

comedy can be deep. also i can criticize whatever the hell i want and until karl jacobs himself says we arent supposed to take tales seriously and its a comedy im gonna keep criticizing it.

Hot take; one of the most poorly written arcs was the eggpire arc since no eggpire controlled characters were developed prior to the arc like BBH and Skeppy so it felt awkward watching the two go through this arc with no prior foundation on the relationship they share. It's not even just that arc too, The Mexican L'manburg was one of the shittest excuses of filler I had to watch. Its weird watching it knowing that it's intended to be taken seriously. And with that...

ngl i didn't watch most of the eggpire arc because most of the people on it stream when it's fucking 3am for me and i didn't watch the mexican l'manburg thing either bc i didn't really watch quackity streams then but i still disagree. i completely disagree.

for one, i don't think the mexican l'manburg arc was made to be taken seriously. it was just a bunch of ccs who are friends joking around. that's like saying wilbur's drug empire arc at the beginning of the smp was shit bc it was too jokey. like,,,,,,, that's the point. it's not serious lore like las nevadas or the exile- it's just people playing in a minecraft server and making up a silly story that was later incorporated into lore, you know? so i don't think it's really fair to judge it like that.

on another note. i truly think the eggpire arc was well-developed. it had months in its making and so much things happened in it before it reached where it is right now. i have only read summaries of it because once again, timezones, but even then. you can see that it's a well-built arc, even if messy (which is also unfair to judge it by since most of the arcs are a little messy. it's because they aren't professionally written these are a bunch of kids on a minecraft server-), it's well developed. am i frustrated by how it apparently finished and with how it suddenly stopped? yes, actually! i am! but prior to the red banquet i believe it was a very, very well done arc. i truly do. i watched only some of the streams and they were all so good. a personal favorite is the one after c!tommy died- that was so fucking good. the absolute terror of watching the eggpire celebrate a child's murder,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, that was so good. it really made it sink in to me that they were absolutely fucked up, and that they were nothing like the people they were before being corrupted by the egg. also, the whole premise of the egg promising people what they want most- i like that. i think it's a good motive for people to just go batshit crazy. good storytelling, in my opinion.

on skeppy and bbh: i also think it's unfair to see it like that. we had no prior development of c!clingyduo's relationship and we had no difficulty in seeing them as brothers. same goes for c!crimeboys and even c!techno and c!wilbur and c!emerald duo. a relationship doesn't need to be extensively developed beforehand for the viewers to understand that it's a relevant relationship to the story. is it fun to see relationships get developed? yea. c!beeduo's relationship progression is literally one of my favorites in the entire story. it isn't necessary for every dynamic tho. i think sometimes you have to just get the context clues ("okay, so c!bbh cares deeply about c!skeppy. they live together. alright."), but even more than that, c!skephalo's relationship has a lot of intricacies that showcase how important it is.

c!bbh's soul is tied to c!skeppy's. that's a canon thing, c!bbh can't die while c!skeppy is alive. they have a whole soul connection thing going on, and that has been canon for months before the egg arc even started. it's unfair to say they had no good relationship development prior.

to be fair, however, i have not watched most of the eggpire lore streams, so i could just be wrong. if anyone with more knowledge on it would like to talk about it feel free to!!! ye

send me a hot take!!!

Tales from the SMP Presents: The Haunted Mansion

An ongoing exploration of how the Inbetween drives my Kingdom Hearts brain crazy with paranoia! Less of an analysis this time, because we got confirmation (VALIDATION!!), and more of speculation, but yeah!

First of all! I was right not to trust this fucker.

Just kidding, that’s not the first thing we’re gonna talk about here. First of all, a gentle recap!

As I’ve mentioned before, the Inbetween has some uncanny resemblance to the Kingdom Hearts world known as Castle Oblivion. Castle Oblivion is known for being the place where the main series protagonist lost all of his memories, and even had false memories implanted while he was getting deeper and deeper into it. 

You might be curious as to how the Kingdom Hearts protagonist escapes.

He doesn’t.

He needs outside help, and a lot of it, to get him out of that situation. Even then, it takes a whole year. He drove his own heart into the bottom of the abyss in his desperation to save someone he was tricked into thinking he knew, and he didn’t even regret it, because he was saving someone.

... A lot of people on Dream SMP have different ideas on what it means to save people.

Also, the castle also had a very plot-twisty secret where it used to be the lush and wonderful home of these three friends before they fell apart; one was lost to the Evil Dark Side™ (not real name), the other was trapped in the Realm of Darkness (real name), and the last one fell into a coma for TEN (10) YEARS and his body was left to be protected in the heart of the land, which was then locked and turned into Castle Oblivion.

So, pretty fucked up place! Not inherently evil, but the place of great misfortune and just... not very good for everyone there.

Let’s start at the beginning!

Welcome back indeed. Take notice of the wither rose in the pot, by the way, I’ll come back to this in a bit.

The first thing that stands out to me on this page is the smiley face, of course. It’s not the ever-iconic, ever-evil “:)”, but it’s similar enough that I think the callback is intentional. The smiley is c!Dream’s icon, of course, which... honestly makes me think that “:]” might be DreamXD, but that might be because I’m very very biased for the server god who simps for a dangerously apathetic cottagecore once-king.

Of course, it does also look kind of like Quackity’s face, and cc!Quackity has said something about big lore coming for him, but until further evidence is presented I’m disinclined to draw a connection there.

The Inbetween, as we’ve come to know the author of some of these books to be, being happy that Karl is continuing—it reminds me of the KH protagonist being told yes, good job, keep going, as he stumbles deeper and deeper into the castle that strips away memory after memory from his heart. Why does the Inbetween think that Karl’s time travel is important, his careful documentation of every story? Is it because the more he does it, the more he becomes attached? The more he becomes reliant on the Inbetween to feed the missing pieces of his memory?

Is it because the Inbetween, in parallel to c!Dream and c!Wilbur, prioritize the concept of story over the characters?

Things to think about. 🤔

Also kind of interesting that the Inbetween thinks Karl will eventually uncover “all [he] needs to”, which continues to make me think that the more c!Karl comes to the Inbetween the more he becomes... either dependent or over-trusting of it. Not sure. But weird things happen when it’s magic that tampers with memories, rather than trauma.

Basically, I’m getting “there is no war in Ba Sing Se” vibes.

The book continues to say that Karl probably has a lot of questions and that it would love to answer :] but never actually does. It’s trying to come off as helpful without actually being helpful. All it does is tempt him with the prospect of answers, and then draws him in deeper. “Continue onward, Karl.” But why?

Another wither rose pot.

Sidestepping the very innocuous, very surface-level information offered here (because that’s it, it’s nothing about the workings about the Inbetween, it’s just a little sweet carrot to distract with), I cannot even begin to convey the absolute terror that consumed me at the word “sleepy.”

I mentioned earlier that one of the original characters who lived in the land that would become Castle Oblivion went into a coma, right? But it’s more commonly referred to as sleeping. The game is even called “Birth by Sleep”, and there’s a whole thing about trying to get him to “wake up”. So the idea that time travel can take something out of the traveller that makes them tired, the idea that there is one specific room for sleeping quarters within the Inbetween, paired with that not-quite-right smiley face—I am traumatized, I tell you.

Yes it could be a “haha look what I did with the sentence, because day is a form of time and they time travel so long day is a funny term” kind of smiley, but. Kingdom Hearts has trained me to be suspicious of any talk of sleep.

There’s something just mildly unsettling about the way it continues, with the references to the “many Karls” and the “many many great stories” that sounds borderline condescending.

And now we get the, uh, “other” author. Notice how this one actually did not have a corresponding wither rose in a pot. I’m starting to think that the flower might actually be an indicator of the not-this-author-pictured-above, the probably-Inbetween-itself, so the fact that this book was found separately from a wither rose pot and it was tucked away under a tree... A tree, under which c!Karl will later find a bit of a refuge... yeah, different author. Or at least an author from a different time.

I’ll elaborate in a moment, but I do think that there’s three (3) mindsets/authors happening here: the sickly sweet Inbetween pretending to be good, the person trying to get c!Karl to distrust the Inbetween, and... someone who desperately wants c!Karl to stay in line.

This is the third... I don’t want to say author, because it too has the wither rose pot and is trying to keep c!Karl playing along with the Inbetween, but it’s much less coherent and much more desperate.

No “:]”, either.

Some possibilities I’m considering:

the Inbetween, but it’s like, a security subroutine or a glitch in the system,

the Inbetween, but it’s from a future wherein c!Karl has fucked it up to the point of desperation,

Karl / the other author, but it’s from a future, where trying to stray from the Inbetween resulted in something traumatic happening and they don’t want it to happen anymore.

Some fun possibilities to keep in mind. Anyway!

Ooh, the return of the wither rose pot.

For this part, the only thing I really have to say is that the repetition of the Inbetween trying to present itself as “a place to feel at ease” is... Well, as the lovely Fear has said in this post linked here, a place that tries and makes itself seem safe probably isn’t, because a genuinely safe place wouldn’t need to announce it all the time.

Very much sounding like a Ba Sing Se thing.

More importantly, the book actually says that it’s “wild” how the Inbetween is “so beautiful that even time travellers who go anywhere at anytime ever and they still choose here” with a good old “:]” tacked on at the end. That’s... that’s not just me thinking like that sounds kind of threatening, right? Like, time travellers can see anything anywhere, and they keep coming back to the Inbetween. Why?

Is it because they forget the beauty of anything else? Is it because it’s not beauty, but rather attachment and emotion that keeps someone going back to a place? If someone forgets their loved ones and precious things, then why would they go anywhere but the place where they’ve put all their stories?

Why did KH’s protagonist keep going deeper into Castle Oblivion even though he knew that the castle was taking apart his memories? Because he had one thing left: the fake, implanted memory, which told him that in order to save someone, he needed to push on no matter the personal cost.

So the real question is: are the time travellers coming back to the Inbetween because they want to, or because they no longer have a choice?

It regards all the different Karls with such... distant affection, too. “How beautiful,” it calls them, for wandering the blank halls with blank stares and blank hearts, none of which react to each other. It says that they “choose” to walk the halls, uncover mysteries, and tell stories. But what was the other choice? Was it really a choice at all?

Hmm.

Karl goes on to explore, and finds another book that does not have a wither rose pot, which tells him he has to go Under The Tree.mp3 and informs him that he “can’t afford not to”. Cool. Not ominous at all.

He finds another, which says the same thing.

Definitely not ominous. /s

The phrasing here is interesting, because it’s also phrased like a threat. Usually, when someone tells you that you “can’t afford not to”, you’re either looking at a scam or at the business end of a weapon. But the empty pages tell you that the author is trying to keep it down low. That’s one of the ways Minecraft players have found to express tone in the very limited form of Minecraft books, and it works splendidly.

Not to push my DreamXD agenda, but like... the door was iron. Iron doors are a weakness for Dreams and dreamons and, mayhaps, Dream’s dreamon.

I know it’s probably just because the iron door keeps in line with the color palette of the build but let me dream, alright.

Anyway, book content! And an interesting point of order: there is a wither rose pot. I said earlier that it might be an indicator of the Inbetween as an author, but that doesn’t make much sense now, does it? This is meant to be a place hidden from the “it” that I assume to be either the Inbetween itself or the one/s controlling it.

So why the wither rose pot inconsistency?

Unless it doesn’t mean that. Unless it’s just a metaphor for, say, memories withering away or something. Or maybe it’s just a pretty plant, for funsies! Who knows. If I had to guess, I’d say that (after much reflection) it’s likely less a mark of author and more a theme of, mm, memory status. The withering away of memories. It fits in with the Inbetween, because that’s what might be responsible for it, but the author/s of the book aren’t immune, either. They get blinks of clarity, with the hidden, tucked-away tomes, but they might not be completely free.

The next book, however, again lacks the wither rose pot. It might not be a coincidence that the one without the potential mark of a withering memory is the one that actually divulges some more information.

This book goes into slightly more detail about the warning, though not about whatever actual threat it is that the castle (which... Castle Oblivion, you know) presents.

It says that 1) it’s not what it seems, 2) the "truth about the other forms of you”, 3) this place “is not okay”, and 4) get in that portal we saw that was blocked off before.

We know that the Inbetween isn’t what it seems, but the “truth” about the other forms... Hm. This is, in fact, another Kingdom Hearts Thing. There’s a running joke that everyone on the very large cast of characters in KH that in the end, every person is actually either secretly a version of the antagonist (through possession or body splitting or whatever), or a version of the protagonist (through similar concepts). Multiple bodies and other forms is definitely a Thing in KH, though it’s not as oh-god-not-again definitely-bad as the sleeping thing.

I think the other forms have either become reliant on the Inbetween or have forgotten everything but the Inbetween, or both. Maybe more of the prior, since the warning is against trusting the place.

And, uh, this? Fucking terrifying. I love it to pieces.

Every single one of these books has a wither rose pot, and this is kind of why I think that the Inbetween or its master/s is, in some way, possibly functioning via routines and like... an AI. Or a genius loci kind of thing.

But good news, there aren’t 13 books, there are 14! This is important for Kingdom Hearts reasons, because Kingdom Hearts has a big thing about the numbers 13 and 7 (13 is the number of pieces of darkness, and 7 is the number of pieces of light, and this is equal somehow, don’t question it).

Now, 14 is an important meme number in the MCYT fandom, of course, but I don’t think it has terribly too much to do with the lore beyond a fun easter egg.

The books themselves trying to tell c!Karl to, essentially, go with the flow and the path that the Inbetween has set up for him is... something. I like the idea that it’s some future version of something trying to stop something from happening, but we all know it’s probably not going to work. Fun times.

And finally, this.

The Inbetween is a bit of a narcissist, huh? It won’t shut up about how it’s so pretty and irresistible and the whole definition of, like, a honey trap. Oh my god it even describes it as ~mysterious~ as a good trait, that’s hilarious.

More pertinently, it also calls the Inbetween “a time traveller’s dream”.

A time traveller’s. Dream.

Again, not to push my DreamXD agenda, BUT—

But! Getting back on track, the book expresses its eagerness to see Karl again, says their relationship is gonna be great, reminds him that his stories are important, and then tells him that he needs the Inbetween/author just like the SMP needs him.

Uh. He’s going to need the Inbetween?

Hello?

Why? How? So far it’s presented itself as being pretty and perfect but it never said anything about necessity! What’s going on!

Very much reminded of how Castle Oblivion was presented as “you need to keep going in even though it takes your memories away because there’s someone you need to save [fake but you don’t know that because you don’t remember anything]”, and I am afright.

Talk about subtle strings being tugged at here. I’m really seeing the beginning seeds of a dependency thing being sown, and if it weren’t for the side books painting giant neon warning signs everywhere, I don’t know if it would’ve caught on. An artificially cultivated concept of how important and great the Inbetween is, and don’t you just want to take all those stories from that messy world elsewhere but come back here in the end to take a break and exist and explore and oh, isn’t the Inbetween great, isn’t it wonderful?

Man, c!Dream wishes he was this good at subtle manipulation.

tldr; there are multiple authors trying to tug c!Karl in different directions via those books. The Kingdom Hearts parallels predict that his memory will be at stake, and he might not be able to escape without help.

Wilbur is just Non-stop

I’m honestly surprised that there isn’t any animatic with this song and Wilbur. Like, I looked it up and there are two Non-Stop animatics, but the first one is about Tommy and the second about Schlatt (Both are very good, look them up)

So, I took it upon myself to rewrite Non-stop to fit British guitar man, since I can’t draw

Also, I am not a song writer, not am I good with these types of things, so be patient with me. Also some things might not make sense, but I tried my best, okay

The song is under the cut

Tommy: After the war I got in politics

Wilbur: A-after the war I got in politics

Tommy: I finished up my studies and I became vice

Wilbur: I became prez, Toms worked next door

Tommy: Even though we started at the very same time

Wilbur quickly began to climb

How to account for his rise to the top?

Man, the man is non-stop

Wilbur: Gentlemen of the cabinet, I'm curious, bear with me

Are you aware that we're making hist'ry?

This is the first real meeting of our brand-new nation

The liberty behind deliberation (Non-stop!)

I am here to inform you that the economy needs work

With my dear assistant

Tommy: Vice President

Wilbur please sit down

We need more trades with the badlands

Write them a proposal

That's all you had to say

Wilbur: Okay

One more thing–

Tommy: Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?

Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?

Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?

Soon that attitude may be your doom!

Why do you write like you're running out of time?

Write day and night like you're running out of time?

Every day you fight, like you're running out of time

Keep on fighting, in the meantime-

(Non-stop!)

Wilbur: Corruption's such an old song that we can sing

Along in harmony and nowhere is it stronger

Than the SMP

This colony's economy's increasingly stalling and

Honestly that's why he's just public service seems

To be calling me (Non-stop!)

I practiced the this thing, I practically perfected it

I've seen injustice in the world and I've corrected it

Now for a strong central democracy

If not, then I'll be Socrates

Throwing verbal rocks at these mediocrities

Dream: Wilbur Soot, at the Community Convention

Wilbur: I was chosen for the Community Convention

Dream:There as a L’Manburg cabinet delegate

Wilbur:Now what I'm going to say may sound indelicate

Dream:Goes and proposes his own form of government

(What?)

His own plan for a new form of government (What?)

Talks for six hours, the convention is listless

Jack: Bright young man

Quackity: Yo, who the fuck is this?

Dream: Why do you always say what you believe?

Ensemble: Why do you always say what you believe?

Dream: Every proclamation guarantees

Free ammunition for your enemies (Awww!)

Why do you write like it's going out of style? (Hey)

Write day and night like it's going out of style? (Hey)

Every day you fight like it's going out of style

Do what you do

Technoblade: Wilbur?

Wilbur: Technoblade, hey

Technoblade: It’s the middle of the night

Wilbur: Can we confer, please?

Technoblade: Is this an SMP matter?

Wilbur: Yes, and it's important to me

Technoblade: What do you need?

Wilbur: Tech, you're a better at this than me

Technoblade: Okay?

Wilbur: I know I talk too much, I'm abrasive

You're incredible with words

You're succinct, persuasive

This thing needs a strong defense

You're the solution

Technoblade: What do you need help with?

Wilbur: The L’Manburg Constitution?

Technoblade:No

Wilbur: Hear me out!

Technoblade: No way!

Wilbur: A series of essays, anonymously published

Defending the nation to the public

Technoblade: No one will read it

Wilbur: I disagree

Technoblade: And if it fails?

Wilbur: Tech, that's why we need it

Technoblade: Your country is a mess!

Wilbur: So it needs amendments

Technoblade: It's full of contradictions!

Wilbur: So is independence!

We have to start somewhere

Technoblade: No, no way

Wilbur: You're making a mistake

Technoblade: Good night

Wilbur: Hey

What are you waiting for?

What do you stall for?

Technoblade: What?

Wilbur: You won your war

What was it all for?

Do you support me, your brother?

Technoblade: Of course

Wilbur: Then help me

Technoblade: And what if you're backing the wrong horse?

Wilbur: Tech, I studied and I fought and I killed

For the notion of a nation I now get to build

For once in your life, take a stand with pride

I don't understand how you stand to the side

Technoblade: I'll keep all my plans close to my chest

(Wait for it, wait for it, wait)

I'll wait here and see which way the wind will blow

I'm taking my time, watching the afterbirth of a nation

Watching the tension grow

Fundy: I am moving to the SMP

I am accompanied by someone who always pays

I have found a wealthy husband who will

Keep me in comfort for all my days

He may a lot of fun, but there's no one

Who can match this crazy place

Wilbur: My little champion

Fundy: Wilbur

Wilbur: Don't forget to write

Tubbo:Look at where we are

Look at where we started

The fact that we’re alive is a miracle

Just stay alive, that would be enough

And if those in your life

Could share a fraction of your time

If we could grant you peace of mind

Would that be enough?

Tommy: Wilbur joins forces with Jack Manifold

And George Lore to write a series of essays

Defending the new L’Manburg Constitution

Entitled The Federalist Papers

The plan was to write a total of 25 essays

The work divided evenly among the three men

In the end, they wrote 85 essays

In the span of six months

George Lore fell asleep after writing five

Jack Manifold wrote 29

Wilbur wrote the other 51

How do you write like you're running out of time? (Running out of time?)

Write day and night like you're running out of time? (Running out of time?)

Every day you fight, like you're running out of time

Like you're running out of time

Are you running out of time? Awwww!

Ensamble: How do you write like tomorrow won't arrive?

How do you write like you need it to survive?

How do you write every second you're alive?

Every second you're alive? Every second you're alive?

Quackity: I’m campaigning for the lead

I am doing the best I can

To help the people that’s in need

I'm asking you to support me man

George: And what’s in it for me?

Quackity: I know it's a lot to ask

George: What’s in it for me?

Quackity: But it will be worth it you know

George: Q, what would I get out of it?

Quackity: You could be my vice?

A theory on the reviving c!Wilbur situation.

/rp

/dsmp

Warning, swearing.

So... Let's start from the first important thing.

Wilbur died. We know this.

Then wilbur speaks to tommy after the disc confrontation, we know that Ghostbur and wilbur are different from each other.

Wilbur is told tommy wants to revive him.

Wilbur doesn't want to be alive again.

So now we move onto the main point of this theory.

Tommy dies, and talks to wilbur in the afterlife. Immediately, they're like.. already fighting.

Says there's 8 more eons. Which is 80 billion years.

But then wilbur starts with his competative solitaire. And I'll probably link back to this in a second, I don't know. These theories are just my train of thought as I write things down. I don't have a plan. Just a main thought and I expand on it. So yeah. Wilbur talks about solitaire.

And tommy declines, proceeding to blow raspberries.

Wilbur spends "six hours" setting out the cards.

And tommy despises the fact that wilbur is glad tommy is dead with him.

Wilbur said he knows that if he gets brought back in some way, the server is going to go to shit in some way.

But then wilbur is happy he's death.

And then tommy is brought back.

Now. Dream says he's going to bring wilbur back to break him out of the prison. And in all honesty, I don't think wilbur will be doing that. This wilbur is crazy and bringing him back to life will pull him away from that brink of clarity he had left when he blew up l'manberg. There will be nothing left of the wilbur that dream or anyone else knew.

So why would he help dream? Dream has a point, wilbur would owe him his life. But wilbur isn't Technoblade. Wilbur might not hold up on the promise to pay dream back.

Now onto tommy. Tommy begged dream to not bring wilbur back to life. That wilbur had terrible, terrible plans for when he was brought back.

I've got two to three possibilities of what the meaning behind this begging could mean.

1, tommy is using this to help wilbur stay dead, knowing that his brother-figure wants to stay dead with his solitaire cards and jschlatt and mexican dream. This, however, is clearly failing.

Or 2, tommy knows that if he shows weakness around dream, dream will use it to exploit him. Tommy has had months of time to sit and plan with wilbur what is going to happen. And tommy might still want his brother back. So.

Tommy acts like wilbur terrifies him. Like wilbur isn't playing competitive solitaire somehow and he's got big plans for the server, playing into Dream's want for manipulating tommy and, if I'm honest, I think he also wants to see the world burn.

However. Maybe this is false. We saw tommy and wilbur arguing at each other before, and plus wilbur is sick in the head. There is a possibility that he knows the silly little solitaire is getting at Tommy's nerves because he's annoyed easily.

Or 3. "Come back in any way".

Wilbur has put himself onto tommy again. Maybe it wasn't physical. But due to talking to wilbur again, tommy is influenced by him. Kind of like how ranboo thought he had gotten rid of the dream voice because he hadn't been talking to dream enough to remember what he sounded like.

What if that's what's happening here?

It would play into the "don't become this person" trope that they're playing onto the kids. Tommy shouldn't become wilbur, tubbo shouldn't become jschlatt, ranboo shouldn't become dream. That kind of thing.

Now tommy has listened to and been around wilbur, tommy is being influenced in some way.

Maybe the bit that's influencing tommy is the small bit of wilbur that's left that's terrified about what could happen if wilbur is revived.

But. Now a part of wilbur has been revived within tommy.

And we look around and realised how much lore is going on.

Techno streamed, phil did lore, ranboo took a break from tubbo and michael and did lore and is now panic brewing potions, foolish has done lore for the first time, the egg is having a crimson banquet, puffy has done an origin story where apparently she's lost memories as well, we had another tales from the smp episode set in the near future. And that's only the ones I've been able to find and watch as they're my main streamers I watch. I know niki was involved with the syndicate now, and jack manifold is getting grief. I know something is happening with quackity. I still dread the day sam does lore because that's gonna break me if he still thinks tommy is dead.

The lore seems to be picking up and in a more... Disastrous way.

And it's due to the egg.

And I link back to solitaire. I swear. I will link these two together.

Competative solitaire is weird because solitaire is a single player game. So what if the point of "competitive solitaire" is who can get the most cards in the right order, or something? Or who can clear the board of cards first? Gain every card?

The definition of solitaire is, after all, "any of various card games played by one person, the object of which is to use up all one's cards by forming particular arrangements and sequences." And yes. I looked this up for a minecraft theory. I'm insane. I know.

So. Competative solitaire.

And wilbur knows things will go to shit if he gets brought back in some way.

Competative solitaire between tommy and the egg.

Tommy currently has the upper hand. The egg doesn't know he's back as far as we're aware, I don't think.

The question is, who's going to make the first move? Who's going to move that first card?

But as with solitaire, there's always a possibility that you won't win. Or in this case, nobody wins. There's always a chance.

So what happens if this chess game that dream is playing, turns into one of cards? Where each player has completely different cards to each other? We know wilbur has been playing solitaire in the afterlife, perhaps tommy brought that knowledge with him when he was revived?

Maybe the begging for wilbur was his first card being dealt.

I don't know anymore. Cards? Chess? Eggs? Block men? Who would have thought that our lives during this would bring us here.

But yeah. Just a weird train of thought that I went on. It seemed a little weird that competitive solitaire is a thing that wilbur repeated more than a few times.

We know cc!wilbur is back with writing the plot now. Who knows what that man could bring us all.

hello! can i please request hcs with quackity about being in a long distance relationship with him?

yes omg!! thanks for the request! ; I tried, I tried not that great

QUACKITY ; long distance relationship

summary ; you and quackity are online daters /j

warnings ; language

genre ; fluff

word count ; 686

y/s/n = your ship name

masterlist

you met at Twitch Rivals

you're both content creators which is obviously how you met

you guys bonded over shared interactions and the games you'd both lost

you got along so great that you exchanged information and decided you should stream together sometime

a couple weeks later you were invited to a jackbox stream with him, fundy, tommy, tubbo, bbh, and niki

shit went crazy

"Y/u/n, is there anything you'd like me to call you before we start? Like nickname or just y/u/n?" Niki asks

You graciously answer her, letting her know your name and proffered pronouns. Tommy makes a little, very lighthearted joke before pointing out someone in chat already making you and Niki and you and Alex ship names.

"Oh God, they've got us" You chuckle. "They're both mine, chat"

"AYO? SINCE WHEN?" Alex shouts

Niki giggles, covering her mouth.

"Since now" You shrug

you decided to try dating during the second north carolina meetup

you both had some fuzzy feelings about each other and mutually agreed on 'well hey, we like each other, why not try it out?'

being near the beach and with all your friends made it like a dream

but after two weeks, you had to go home

but you left your relationship untitled for now

Streaming together continued as per usual. So did long talks and phone calls, and hours spent playing video games (mostly Minecraft) together.

the next trip was to LA to visit Alex this time

you guys had your first kiss on his balcony overlooking the city

the way he giggled after omg

during that trip, you established your relationship and started to go on every day dates and stuff

but then you had to go home again

Honestly, both of you didn't really think about what to do with your relationship once you went home. You were taking it all in while you had it and weren't thinking about the very true reality of it all.

you thought talking was constant? it is now

sometimes both of you will just stay up late and rant about what you like about each other and corny shit

youre the one to softlaunch the relationship to fans

you probably guessed the password to his twitter/instagram and changed his bio to "y/u/n's bf 💯💯"

he didnt even know until people were flooding his dms and people on tik tok were talking about it

hed already said he was okay with telling people as long as you were tho

sends you pictures of flower bouquets once a week with some thought out, very loving paragraph or poem

he constantly complains about not being able to kiss or cuddle you

"y/n/n why are you so far away!?"

"i told you id be able to pay for you to live with me"

"UGHHHHHHHHH"

sends you good morning/goodnight texts and talks about what you'd be doing that day if you were together

cheesy little man

always spamming you w pics of Tiger

will religiously send you memes and blow up your phone if you're busy or ignoring him

yk the relationship is srs when even your qsmp characters are in love

the lore.

half of its heartbreaking angst and the other half is literally your bucket lists/daydreams of the future of your relationship

hes so down bad for you

will do anything to make you smile or make you flustered

will make the most suggestive jokes in front of friends, stay silent for a second or two and yell "im joking, im joking!"

orders you doordash/uber eats when you're doing subathons or generally long streams

will always join through vc/greenscreen when youre doing cooking streams

you'll do greenscreen dates (like the fiances stream) once a month and gossip over takeout LMAO

genuinely asks his fanartists to make ship art of you two because he loves seeing all the ideas and cute shit

they always draw you with one of his beanies or hats on, the occasional necklace

you reblog tumblr y/s/n fanart 24/7/365

karaoke streams are a must

you guys rank those "songs that all white people love" videos and rate the songs

dare or hot wing streams when youre literally anywhere but near each other>>

also playing just dance using vc and stream green screen>>>

C!Beeduo Actually Talk About Their Feelings

i know it’s crazy

they basically talk after the last lore stream where they like fought?? ish?? idk. they like communicate. 

slight warning because tubbo’s not the most canonically mentally sound, and so there’s so his pov is a little heavy on the self-hatred and catastrophizing

anyway enjoy!!

Tubbo is laying on the floor, sketching a design for some project he’s probably working on, and trying to ignore the dread coiling in his gut.

Michael is laying next to him, studiously coloring in every square on a piece of grid paper with a different crayon. 

Tubbo is trying to remember to breathe. 

There’s a familiar knock on the door. Three quick raps, more of a formality at this point. It’s Ranboo. 

“Papa!” Michael squeals, scrambling to his hooves and trotting to the door. He has to stand on his tiptoes to reach the handle. 

Tubbo takes a deep breath. 

Ranboo steps into the house. He does not look at Tubbo. 

Instead, he swoops Michael up, spinning him up towards the rafters as he shrieks with joy.

“I missed you,” Ranboo says, smiling, pulling Michael close and speaking into his hair. Tubbo considers crying.

“Hey,” Ranboo mumbles to Michael. “Can you run upstairs and brush your teeth? Dad and I need to talk for a bit.”

“Gotta brush Chickie’s teeth too Papa,” Michael explains. Ranboo nods.

“Yeah, gotta make sure Chickie’s teeth are brushed. I’ll be up to read you a story in a sec, ‘kay?”

“Promise?” Michael asks, his voice getting a little trembly. Ranboo’s eyes widen, before he pulls back to look Michael in the eye.

“Promise,” he says, serious. “It’ll just be a bit.”

Michael nods surely, let’s Ranboo kiss his forehead and set him down, and trots to the ladder. Tubbo is alone with Ranboo now, and he suddenly remembers why he’s dreading this visit.

“Hey,” Tubbo says, and cringes a little at how hoarse his voice is.

“You wanted to talk,” Ranboo prompts, and Tubbo winces again at how far from the soft voice he was using with Michael this is. Usually, Ranboo can’t help but be disgustingly fond with Tubbo, and while he teases Ranboo for it, he misses it achingly now.

“Yeah,” is all he says, and it’s a struggle to even get the monosyllables out. But he does it, and then he gestures towards the couch, silently inviting Ranboo to sit, even if it’s only to prolong the inevitable.

Ranboo sits, thankfully, and nods at Tubbo, as if to say “get on with it.” Tubbo takes a deep breath.

“Okay,” he says because he doesn’t know where to start. And Ranboo is avoiding his gaze, and Tubbo really doesn’t know what to do with that. He’s gotten so used to getting to look Ranboo in the eyes that the lack of it is palpable, and for some reason, that’s the final straw.

“I’m sorry, ok,” he blurts, “I’m sorry, I know you’re mad at me, and I know I fucked up, and I know I deserve it, but I don’t- fuck, I don’t know exactly why you’re mad, and I know that’s dumb, and I probably- I should know these things, but I’m not good at this whole- whole life partners thing, and I’m sorry, but please, if you’ll just tell me why you’re mad, I’ll fix it because I hate this. And- and I want to fix it, and I just- yeah.”

He stops talking then, because what else is he going to say? That he misses Ranboo? That it physically hurts thinking about life without him? No. Fuck no. He’s being stupid and gross and selfish, making this all about himself, about how he feels, when Ranboo is obviously upset. 

He doesn’t look up at Ranboo even though he’s done talking, because he doesn’t want to see if he’s angry. He wrings his hands instead. Usually, Ranboo would take his hands now, smooth his thumb over his knuckles, maybe press a kiss to the heel of his palm. He doesn’t. 

“Tubbo,” he says instead, and his voice sounds resigned and pained and soft all at once and Tubbo is going to cry. “Tubbo.” He says it again, like he can’t help it. “I’m not- I’m not mad. At least not mostly. I just- I think we’re on different pages. About this. Us. About us.”

The floor drops out from under him. 

Different pages. They’re on different pages because Ranboo doesn’t love him. What else could it possibly mean? Ranboo’s just in this for tax benefits, and for Michael. He doesn’t feel the same and Tubbo went and got all attached and clingy again, and he thought that the marriage was enough, that it was enough to get Ranboo to stay, but maybe now that he’s realized how pathetically needy Tubbo is he’s realized he can do better, and he’s leaving he’s leaving and it’s probably for the best. 

Tubbo breathes in. He breathes out. If Ranboo wants to leave, Tubbo isn’t going to stop him. He won’t cry or beg or manipulate, because Prime knows Ranboo deserves better than that. He nods.

“Okay,” he says, and his voice is so small. He can’t bring himself to try again. “If you don’t want me- or this, or whatever, that’s okay.” He tries for a joke, and it just sounds miserable, “I mean, divorce exists for a reason.”

Ranboo doesn’t laugh. Tubbo braves looking up at him through his fringe. He doesn’t look angry. More like confused. What?

“What?” Ranboo says.

“What,” Tubbo says.

“I don’t want a divorce?” Ranboo says, not sounding entirely sure. 

“You don’t?” Tubbo asks, internally cursing the swooping hope that he can’t quite tamp down in his chest. 

“No,” Ranboo says, sounding more certain this time. “I kind of though you wanted to divorce me?”

“What?” Tubbo says, because he’s not following this conversation at all anymore. “Why would I want a divorce?”

“Because,” Ranboo says, and now he’s the one wringing his hands. Tubbo resists the urge to reach out and hold them. “You sold the Cookie Outpost. And you seemed so, like, adamant that this was for tax benefits. And like, I get it if it is-” He sounds like he’s going to keep talking, but Tubbo isn’t going to let him.

“This wasn’t ever just for tax benefits, dummy, that was a joke,” Tubbo says. “We don’t pay taxes.”

“Yeah, but we might have to,” Ranboo says, like he’s not quite sure why he’s arguing. 

“Okay, maybe, but I wanted to marry you so you wouldn’t leave me,” Tubbo says, quietly, because he sort of hopes Ranboo won’t hear it. “I don’t even know how taxes work. And I’m sorry, because I kind of manipulated you into this, and if you want out, I get it, but I do really mean it now,” he says, and he tries, just a little, to meet Ranboo’s eyes, because he should know how serious Tubbo is. “I want to be married to you, and I want to spend my life with you.”

Ranboo looks up at him through his eyelashes. 

“Really,” He breathes, like it’s foreign and impossible.

“Really,” Tubbo says, because it’s so true. 

“Oh,” Ranboo says. “But you said- you said you’re happy now. Like more happy than you’ve been since L’manberg, now that you have this job with Quackity.”

“Yeah?” Tubbo says, because he doesn’t quite get why Ranboo would be upset about that, unless he had managed to convince himself that he didn’t make Tubbo happy. “Wait. Fuck. Ranboo.”

“What?”

“That doesn’t mean you don’t make me happy,” Tubbo says, and he reaches out and takes Ranboo’s hands, just to drive the point home. “You make me so happy. You and Michael and our little family? I can’t- I don’t know how to explain how happy you make me. I’ve just been going fucking insane here, playing with Michael and building nukes. I needed something to do, to like put my energy into. Not because you don’t make me happy, but because I’m fucking bored. I’ve had too much time to myself, and that makes me all paranoid and shit. Get lost in my head. I just needed to get out. Not because of you. Because of, like, everything else.” He squeezes Ranboo’s hands, to make sure he’s listening. “You make me happy, okay?”

“Okay,” Ranboo says, a little shaky. “Are you sure?”

“Yes,” Tubbo says, because he is. 

“Okay,” Ranboo whispers. “You know you make me happy too, right?” He asks, in that fond, soft, sappy voice that makes Tubbo feel all melty. 

“Yeah,” he says, trying to pretend like he isn’t blushing. 

“Yeah,” Ranboo echoes, grinning at him. He meets Tubbo’s eyes, reaching up to push some hair off of his forehead. “Let’s go put Michael to bed?”

“Okay,” Tubbo says, and pulls him to his feet.

thoughts on (pick what u like) wilbur dsmp, angsty fanfic tropes, romance novels

wilbur dsmp...... my precious little meow meow........ pspspspspsps cc!wilbur soot you wanna go live and do lore SOOOOO bad

seriously though i'm a sucker for tragic heroes and s1 wilbur? yeah. people try to paint early s1 wilbur as the same person he is now (possibly including current wilbur. lmao) but i just.... i don't buy it? and some of this is doylist, right, during the first l'manburg war i doubt wilbur had already planned out the direction his character arc was going to go, he was just playing a revolution leader in minecraft and quoting hamilton. & that informs his acting for moments like when he decides to surrender to dream or when he's telling tommy not to put himself in danger & to follow his heart! i genuinely don't think he was being manipulative for the sake of power there! or when he says he never cared about l'manburg, i don't... believe that. lmao. he cried for l'manburg! he killed himself over losing l'manburg! this is a server full of unreliable narrators & wilbur is NOT an exception lmao

and his confrontation with phil in the button room is like..... my absolute shit. and the fact that before his breakdown he had been sending phil letters regularly informing him that Everything's Fine!!!!!! ugh. wow.

and revivebur!!!!! revivebur who has NO coping skills and flies from emotion to emotion because everything exists so much constantly and it's such a rush and he's putting charisma on over it but he's just on a ridiculous emotional roller coaster constantly. i think a lot about how the two times we heard from him when he was dead (talking to tommy at the end of the s2 finale, talking to tommy in the afterlife) he was in favor of death and being dead & felt that it was for the best whereas now that he's back he's all :DDDDD THIS IS GREAT AND EXCELLENT

(and. something something-- him being bad for the server means that the only way he can be happy is for him to embrace his role as the Villain. he tried doing the right thing by killing himself and replacing himself with a Nice Person once, and look where it got them!)

((AND. something about how niceness=weakness in his mind. when he first founded l'manberg they didn't fight with weapons! where did that get them? dead. all ghostbur wanted was to make everyone happy! where did that get him? lied to constantly, his home destroyed, suicidal as well, and then... dead again. he says dream's the only one who gets it, and i'd argue that 'it' here means 'the importance of throwing away everything you have in a desperate grab for power because otherwise they will take it all from you'. can't be hurt by others if you've already hurt yourself, and maybe, maybe, maybe, if you're evil and cruel and heartless, you'll eventually get enough power that you'll be able to feel safe again. bc wilbur can say that he doesn't care, that he never cared, but honestly i don't think that was ever really an option for him like it was for dream. he cares so much about everything all the time. it's just a question of whether he'll get power quickly enough to protect the things he cares about or whether he'll destroy them himself because it's better than letting someone else have the power to do that))

and! his black and white thinking!!!! honestly i think the only person on the server with as intense of black-and-white thinking as wilbur is tommy, and.... to some degree tommy's working on that and realizing that people can be and do both good and bad things? but. while tommy was working on that, wilbur was in hell. for decades. and so he has done the opposite of improving on this point, and it....shows. people are either heroes or they're villains and they can swap in his eyes so quickly. including himself. especially himself. boy does NOT have any mental stability

and i do think he manipulates tommy a lot and his relationship with tommy is not healthy at all tbc! but imo-- it's very clearly from a place of fear and vulnerability and not wanting anything else to be taken from him? it's very Frantic Attempts To Avoid Real Or Imagined Abandonment. cf the double parenthetical earlier abt his attitude towards power. also i like crimeboys, so sue me

idk i like wilbur "frantically plastering charisma over his blatant crazy" dreamsmp quite a lot. i'd also like to thank him for being a terrible father and for having so very much constant sexual tension with quackity dsmp and for the white hair streak. very sexy of him if i do say so myself

this specified wilbur dsmp so you are not getting my thoughts on ghostbur (light of my LIFE) or cc!wilbur (terrible boy (affectionate)) but rest assured. i love them too.

wow this got long. uuuuh. angsty fanfic tropes: in favor. sickfic? delicious. mental illness? good stuff. grief? fuck yes. injuries? yeaaaaah boi. i don't like it when they're poorly characterized or shoehorned in but that also applies to non-angsty tropes.

i don't really read romance novels honestly? the closest i come is that i read mxtx novels and fanfiction and i used to read a lot of YA. which, okay, yes, is kind of like saying "i don't read romance novels except for all the romance novels i read", but in terms of central examples of the genre, i genuinely don't? i find them boring at best and painful to read at worst, and the adjacent things i read more of i usually read for aspects other than the romance. idk man i'm just not that interested in romance for the sake of romance

Fundy Lore Stream (30 MAR 21)

Delayed Live Blog 1/1

I’m in class, but the favorite streamer is going.

Accidentally started off silent sounds like we’re going well

“No panic” no we shall panic

Time to split my brain between descriptive statistics and lore

Quiet intro

Hooray bed! Pretty bed!

Ooo Dessert? This seems fun.

It’s all dessert? Always has been.

Up da tower.

Van? That’s not where that’s supposed to be.

Is this prerecorded? I think so from the scuffed bit?

If it’s prerecorded his acting is looking good.

Just a fox and some rabbits.

Peoples?

Fundy in the van? Broken button?

Knock knock anyone home?

My class is talking t-tests and z-scores and I don’t care.

Where is the streamer?

Boy probably built this and is still wondering where the path leads.

Creepy basement. No. Yes. No. Yes.

Oh sky switching between light and dark. Very cinematic.

Ah we’re talking article critiques in my class. I know this.

Oh look. An ominous book. Nothing bad ever comes from ominous books.

Long book from the fox to da fox

Complicated Fundy lore let’s go

Dream world? It’s not real? Is this a dream? Nightmare?

“You are not real” oh no wait I don’t like the heartbeats.

I really don’t like the heartbeats.

Oh we awoke. That was spooky.

I maybe guessed right though. It was a dream/nightmare thing.

Oh wait never mind. Still in the dessert.

Chatting to chat. Prank boy things it’s a prank.

Empty chest, empty inventory. (Just didn’t want to recreate it did he? Lol)

Seems like a video game to me. Lol

No don’t make the boy alone. He’s already so alone in normal story.

Already going crazy and yelling at things.

Yelling at the Wilbur name tag disappearing

Boy still thinks it’s a prank. Prankster trying to rationalize everything.

Back to the basement?

Wait is the basement closer.

I loved the “I’m not going insane” he toned that just right for it to sound like normal.

Book time again. What did I say nothing good comes from ominous books.

If we see him writing these books I will cry.

Nope. Don’t keep reading. Home again home again jiggidy jig.

Why did we keep reading. *distress sounds*

Wake up time. Of no the heartbeats back.

Back to sleep come on. Don’t try to figure this out.

Again falling back onto pranks. Back onto prankster feelings.

Please don’t cry. I don’t want to see the fanart.

No please don’t laugh either! I want to see this less!

This is going to be so angsty.

All the angst art incoming. Brace yourselves!

He’s still thinking it’s a prank. A bad prank. But he thinks it’s others.

I’m going to cry if he keeps on talking about how he’s always the one hurt.

Oh wait the house is so much closer!

Just go to bed. Please. Do what it suggested.

My stream just goofed! Panic!

I don’t know what’s happening but I like the mods comforting us telling us we are real

Ok I’m back. We’re waiting for night to sleep

He’s still talking about it being a prank.

Oh I’m going to cry about the “you were always there for me every time. Except sometimes. When I needed you the most” (not direct quote)

Please Fundy. We are going to cry. Stop talking about things disappearing.

Your chat can cry on command Fundy. Please.

Stop. Stop looking at that. Stop walking.

Where are my tissues? I’m going to need em.

Where’s the van???

Wait. Egg? No FIRE!

Wait... is that the van blown up. That’s not a good omen. Not a good memory.

No you don’t want to find out!

Unreliable narrator is my favorite trope, but good heavens I’m going to cry and continue screaming into the void.

Yes yes. Hello again.

I hate how long the books are. So many pages is stressful.

No we don’t want to truth. We want to go H O M E

Please. Book Fundy. Help us out.

I agree with book Fundy! Just stop!

Oh no wake up. Gotta mentally prepare myself for heartbeats.... it stopped...

Oh no. We’re not waking up!

he is.... I’m worried.

We’re listening. I’m taking notes.

My class ended btw.

Don’t join him? Who he? Who him?

This has a Wilbur vibe to it. Is this past lore? Is this future Fundy telling past Fundy not to join Wilbur.

Unsigned?

Making that thing red because if that’s what happens. I’m calling it.

Other book? Glowing book?

Today? By Fundy?

Oh no. Remember?

Odd illness. Oh no. In dream Insomnia?

Oh no. We have another who can manipulate reality. Time travel is getting too complicated.

I agree. No no no.

We can’t leave. We kept reading.

I know this. It’s night. It won’t work.

Don’t throw it away. We’re already invested. We need that.

Sometimes it easier to believe a lie than the truth.

He sounds so stressed.

Please. Just finish the book.

I CALLED IT BEING DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES!

Wake up. And we have.

Oh. him...

Screaming I agree.

No no no. I agree.

Sleeping in the roof bed.

Wait what...

He got to him. Quiet heart beats?

Other noises.

WAIT WHATS WITH THE PIXEL SMILE AND CASINO NOISES!!!

I DONT THINK THATS GOOD

So this is connected to Quackity somehow

I’m glad the chat is filled with comforting role play reminders.

BUT STILL

Ok the end of stream reminders pole was nice. All is forgiven.

Here are the reminders. And for lore purposes because they mean something here is the title and tags. Permadeath and hard mode are what has me most concerned.

Anyway I’ve got another class.

[findingjoynweirdstuff]

hello anon here!

i was wondering if you could find the vod where sapnap asks tommy if dream does care about him. it was after dream yelled at tommy when tommy tried to use spirit against him. ive been looking for it and i dont know where it is.

also another one is where tubbo and wilbur lock tommy in a piston thing after tommy keeps messing with wilburs diamonds and tubbo says "now he cant breathe" have a good day!!

That would be December 3rd! The piston vod is here Now, December 3rd was one of those days where each stream sort of built on the previous ones chronologically.

(I hope you don’t mind me dumping all of this in the answer to your ask because this is one of those lore days I really like talking about lol)

It starts out on Tommy's Stream:

---

Sapnap: “Tommy, I actually have a question. So, um, what was it, yesterday? Or, yeah – when Dream was uh, getting real mad at you, he said he didn’t – he said he didn’t care about anything. But, I mean surely he cares about me, right? You think?” Tommy: “…” Sapnap: “Right, Tommy? Surely he does, right?” Tommy: “He cares about George, if that makes you feel any better.” Sapnap: “Well no-no-no-yeah yeah yeah but surely he cares about me as well, right? ‘Cause like, we’re like, friends, you know? Like best friends, you know, like, I think he – he definitely cares about me, right?” Tommy: “…Yes.” Sapnap: “You can – Tommy, you don’t have to – you can give it to me straight, I’m tough—” Tommy: “—He doesn’t care about you. You’re just one of his many bitches.” Sapnap: “Oh…Well that – that – that’s okay, right? Like, I mean, that’s fine.” Tommy: “Well, it’s very sad.” Sapnap: “That – that – that’s fine by me…it’s okay, that’s fine, that’s fine. I mean I’m friends with Tommy, that – it’s okay.” Tommy: “Yeah, it’s alright Sapnap. I’ll…well, I probably won’t be a shoulder to cry on, but I’ll certainly be – I’ll be around. Unless I get exiled, in which case I won’t be around.” Sapnap: “Oh, well, do you think I can visit you? Wherever you get exiled to?” Tommy: “Maybe. Send me a Christmas card.”

---

Then, an hour or two later, this is continued on George's stream:

---

Sapnap: “You know, I mean, I thought I was, you know, we were all like, you know, a band of brothers from Mexican L’manburg and you keep excluding me and I—” George: “You weren’t here!” Sapnap: “—I’m not having that, I’M NOT HAVING THAT! OKAY?” George: “You weren’t here!” Sapnap: “I don’t know – I don’t know if you heard, George, but Dream doesn’t care about us.” George: “What – what did the – what did the sign say?” Quackity: (in the background) “Oh! Oh my god!” Sapnap: “He said that. He said – no, George, I need to tell you something. Come here, come here. Come here. Look at me in my eyes.” George: “What? What?” Sapnap: “Dream said – I’m pissed, because Dream said he only cared – he doesn’t care about anything on this server, so that means he doesn’t care about us.” George: (Taking a sip of water out of his cup with a straw) Sapnap: “Remember? He said that, dude. He doesn’t care about us, George, we’re on our own.” George: (Spits out water with a deadpan expression) Sapnap: “So you – you can’t just leave me behind, you gotta add me to these things. Because – ‘cause you’re all I got! And Quackity. Mexican L’manburg is all I have.” Quackity: “That’s true, that’s true, that’s why you gotta work on Mexican L’manburg, Sapnap, but don’t worry. This house right here? (whispering) It’s to piss off Tommy. That’s right. We’re building two houses in front of Tommy’s houses, one here another one over there. It’s crazy. It’s crazy.” George: “That is – wait, he said that?” Sapnap: “Yeah, George, yeah he did. He said he doesn’t care about anything on this server, all he cares about chaos and he – you know, George? I just – I don’t know, George. I just don’t.” George: “That’s messed up.” Quackity: “We gotta band together, boys.” Sapnap: “We gotta stick together, boys. It’s us three versus the world. And maybe Karl if he joins Mexican L’manburg, but it’s – it’s us. It’s us against the world, okay? And we can take ‘em all on.”

(Later on, while George and Quackity are making item frames, Technoblade hunts down and almost kills George)

---

And finally, the day ended on Quackity's stream with the confrontation.

---

George: "Why do you think I shouldn't be king anymore?" Dream: “I think that you would be safer if you were not, right?” George: “Wh – well why are people trying to kill me just ‘cause I’m king? Why is that?” Dream: “Well…because…well Technoblade doesn’t like government, and then, everyone else just hates me? And therefore, they don’t like you.” Bad: (nods politely in the background) Dream: “But – but Eret, like, because Eret also kind of, you know, right now, he’s not on the best odds with me, then he’s kinda perfect ‘cause they’re not gonna attack him ‘cause it wouldn’t really matter much to me.” George: “Mm…interesting.” Quackity: “I’m just a bystander, I’m just passing by.” George: “This is an interesting um…interesting meme here. Mm. So Dream doesn’t want me to be king anymore.” Dream: “That’s your blessing, right? That’s your blessing saying you’re fine with it and it’s great.” George: “Sapnap. Are you hearing this?” Dream: “Wait what? Sapnap’s here?” Sapnap: “I heard you say some select things…just give me – George, just hold out for me. I’m coming. Just, I’m coming.” George: “What did you just say?” Dream: “Oh, oh. He said ‘hold it out for me?’” Sapnap: “No! I said hold out for me! I’m coming! I didn’t—” George: “Okay, Sapnap.” Dream: “This was meant to be – this was meant to be a quick thing!” Quackity: “What the hell is going on? What is going on?” George: (stands on a crafting table) Sapnap: “No no no, I do not – I do not – I don’t care what it’s meant to be! I have to ask you something.” Dream: “Listen, then we can have the conversation another time. I just thought it was a good time to ask—” Quackity and Sapnap: (crosstalk) “No, this is a perfect time to ask!” … (Sapnap arrives) … Sapnap: “Dream, you can’t run away and escape this. Like you always do.” Dream: “Run away and escape what?” Bad: “Wait, Sapnap, what did you say you were pulling out?” Sapnap: “George and I know – the only thing I’m pulling out is deez nuts on your face.” Quackity: “LET’S GOOOO!” Bad: “Language!” Quackity: “Let’s go! Gottem! Gottem!” Sapnap: “George, Dream, where are you – George, do you remember what Dream said?” George: “When?” Sapnap: “To Tommy a few days ago?” George: “No? What?” Dream: “That’s a very specific thing – Sapnap, you weren’t even involved in this, Sapnap! It was Tommy—” Sapnap: “No, no, it doesn’t matter if I was involved in it.” George: “Why are you guys fighting?” Sapnap: “Why does he—” Dream: “No, we’re not fighting, we’re just—” Quackity: “The girls are fighting.” Sapnap: “Dream – look, I’ll – I’ll refresh your memory, Dream.” Dream: “Sapnap…” Sapnap: “Dream. Dre.” George: “He’s just disgusted, do you hear that? He’s absolutely disgusted.” Sapnap: “It’s just, it’s just like – George, Dream said he didn’t care about anything on this SMP which – that just means he doesn’t care about us.” Dream: “Okay, well obviously I was – okay, I wasn’t – I wasn’t – I didn’t actually mean I didn’t care about anything.” George: “Why did you say it then?” Dream: “Well listen, well listen, the reason I’m even saying George should step down as king is because I care about him.” Sapnap: “Now you’re saying George should step down as king?” Dream: “Well yeah, because he’s been getting attacked and I care about him and I don’t want him to get attacked.” Eret: “Hello, gentlemen.” Sapnap: “George, he wants you to step down as king. George, don’t – don’t – you don’t have to do anything he says.” Dream: “Well listen – okay, Sapnap, he does, first of all, but second of all – second of all, it’s – I – I was asking ‘cause I said it’d be nice. I mean you know obviously, George understands, George is better, but—” Sapnap: “Do you understand, George?” Dream: “Sapnap. Stop. Why are you like, trying to divide us?” Eret: “I’m very confused what I’ve walked into.” Sapnap: “Me? Me divide us?” Dream: “Yes!” Sapnap: “ME divide us?” Dream: “Come to Tommy’s house, Eret.” Eret: “I’m pretty much there.”

(And the confrontation continues for the rest of the stream after that as Eret arrives and they keep arguing, Dream and Quackity have their long debate on top of Mexican L'manburg, etc.)

So Sapnap is kind of the important link behind the chain of events here!

Tommy tells Sapnap, Sapnap tells George and Quackity, and the argument picks up when Sapnap arrives during George and Dream’s conversation. It’s an interesting instance in the story of information spreading through word of mouth.

masterlist

Raiding Club Penguin with him and Axel was a core memory for you. It was the first true time, however cringe it sounds, that you saw Alex as your best friend.

he'd always try to make you laugh, especially on stream

such a little tease

back in the olden days, we had those Discord server 'wtf is that food' videos

you guys rank some of them and how likely you'd eat them

also ranking Discord memes

so many of them were dumb shit or weird shipart from like 2015 deviantart LMFAO

"guys I know me and y/n are dating but that doesn't mean compare us to Shrek couples!"

"I thought Thanos was your true love?"

"He-He is! Oh my God, stop being so desperate, y/n. ugh"

once he got invited to the Dream SMP, you were all ears and proudly taught him how to play Minecraft

you made his alt skin with the tuxedo, which he didn't wear often, but used in lore some time later

youd often help him with lore ideas

he also got you invited into the SMP where he introduced you to some of his new friends

you knew schlatt and some others, but most of these people were new and it was nice meeting all of them

the fiances are established and then you and quackity are already a think and you also like karl, which creates a weird love rectangle with an open end because you and sapnap are sharing the other two 💀

lore goes fuckin crazy with that

while Karl's off making Kinoko Kingdom and Quackity's running Las Nevadas, you're building El Tropicana, off in the far away jungle biome

Alex would usually stream and translate Mexican soap operas, which you joined in for sometimes

you'd give the characters different voices and twist their words up a bit to make it more entertaining for chat

the amount of drug talk that went into that was wild

also the amount of queer kids bullied in those schools?? yikes on bikes

also the one with that girl who got in trouble for kissing a boy on the playground or whatever that was?? Jesus christ man

youd both act put the scenes on occasion and use Tiger as whatever kid was being yelled at if she was in the room with you

taking a break halfway through stream for him to play guitar and for you to karaoke to fuckin Bo Burnham

also making fake joints out of paper he had laying around and "lighting them up" aka setting paper on fire next to a PC and your faces

Jackbox streams with the Feral Boys until 3am>>>

Paranormal Activity in the middle of the night went so fucking crazy

teaching Bad how to play GTA is your favorite memory with those two

playing horror games and watching him play horror games with Karl while he visited him

how dare he leave you all alone (you couldn't go because you had a busy schedule)

your chats shipping the hell out of you and your dsmp characters

hella fanart and fanfictions man

try not to laugh streams where you always ended up laughing before the ten minute mark because of him

he purposefully does shit to make you laugh

reading fanfiction on stream was a regular activity especially for y/s/n

youd rank the book on a scale from one to ten and how accurate to real life they were

"nahhhh that one doesn't have enough Thanos, two out of ten"

"yknow what... were gonna have our own tier lists... okay?"

"damnit... does this mean I'm not getting laid later?"

"what"

promoting the quackityhq merch religiously

also stealing whichever beanie he wasn't wearing, either the LAFD one or the plain black and blue one

him tying you to a chair and forcing you to laugh was a common stream plot

tweets that were either very inconspicuous about drugs, very sexual, or very old married couple vibes

youd both be frequently trending on twitter

hot wings or dare streams with Bad >>>>

playing girls go games and hoping you wouldn't give his PC a virus

sitting in the inflatable pool fully clothed, playing with children's bath toys

he'd for sure be the type to fall for his best friend

whether it be all the way back then or just now, he could go forever without feeling any feelings but one day they'll show up and the nervousness begins

he'd lend you a hoodie if you were cold in his room and he just straight up begs you to keep it

lots of just staring at you while chat ships you, like genuinley just zones out on your pretty face

would probably doubt his feelings at first and talk to his mom about it and she's like "boy you have a crush. Go ask them the hell out, you're a handsome young man, I'm pretty sure they like you too"

"mOooOooOoOoM"

genuinley spoils you with no good reason and after a while you just accept it

he starts sending good morning and good night texts

he'll repost (or reblog) (he has a secret tumblr) fanart of you two, especially if it's shipart

will constantly send you clips of movie characters making out or kissing and say "this should be us"
