#i am in need of enderwalk content
latenightmining · 1 year

content warnings: ableist self-talk, self harm via water, vague mentions of experimentation, typical c!dream behaviors.
“welp, here we are…” he’s walked all this way, but it’s still late at night. he could go home if he wanted to. back to his family, and never tell anyone about this.
but then he’d never know. and knowing is better than not knowing, it always is.
and so ranboo makes sure his helmet is secure, and dives under the water, down into the secret staircase, and descends into the lab.
it hasn’t been all that long since he was last here. in fact, there’s still a lantern he forgot to snuff out illuminating the cramped room. ranboo doesn’t bother lighting the rest of them around the room; the lava underneath the table works just as well.
he brings out ingredients for the harming potion, and sets them out next to the brewing stand line along the lab countertop. 
“now, i don’t know if i’m gonna need to use this, but- but just in case, i’ll have the ingredients ready. but- but we should just- just need water. it’s basically the same thing for me anyways.” he sighs. “i don’t want to waste time. if i think about it too much…. then i’m gonna enderwalk, and he’s gonna make me go back home.”
ranboo pulls out his memory book. in it is a conversation between him and his enderwalk. he pleads to himself to just be allowed to know, and the enderwalk refuses every time. 
“he doesn’t want me to know. he doesn’t- he doesn’t want me to know. but what am i gaining from being like this? i have the chance to finally fix myself, to- to fix everything! but he’s not letting me! and- and i’m tired of it. i’m sick of living like this. i don’t want to sit here and be a burden to- to everyone around me! if wilbur can fix his memories by trying this… then i can too.”
“you’re making a huge mistake! don’t you get it? you’re not a burden- you’re not going to hurt anyone, who cares if you don’t know your past? you know your present, isn’t that enough?”
“my present is affected by my past! everything i do today is because of my past. and if dream is the reason behind it all, then he’s never going to truly die until i know what my connection is to him… maybe then i’ll be able to finally apologize for everything i’ve done.”
with the particles still screaming at him, ranboo claps, blowing them all away. he can’t take hearing them anymore. he feels that telltale swell of stress bubbling up in him that signals an oncoming enderwalk. he doesn’t have much time, he needs to do this now.
ranboo looks at the brewing stand with the ingredients laying next to it. he doesn’t think it’ll be fast or effective enough. but he does know what will be effective.
with careful and confident movements, ranboo unbuckles his armor. he starts at the helmet, and then works his way down. he strips off his suit jacket and tie as well. he also makes sure he still has his totem in his hand. he’s not an idiot. he knows if this goes wrong he could die, and he’s not taking that chance. if he turns out to be bad all along, then tubbo will kill him himself.
with shaky hands, he finds himself grabbing for his memory book, and pulling out his quill. his hands write on their own.
Tumblr media
he throws the book and quill to the side, and heads to the back corner of the room to the tank of water he built two years ago.
Tumblr media
he climbs the stairs, and stares down into the water. last chance to back out now.
ranboo drops into the water, and blacks out.
-
he’s in a tank.
how did he get in a tank? it burns, it burns so bad, and he doesn’t remember how he got in here. a hand pulls him out of the water and onto the floor. it’s cold, and solid.
“haha, oh man, you still get burned by the water? i figured by now there would be enough dna in you to make that stop. here, let’s get you dry. can’t have you melting before we’re done.”
there’s a voice, and he doesn’t remember who it is. he recognizes it though, and he knows he’s scared of that voice. something soft is tossed down onto him. he grabs it with his… why is his hand white? what- what happened?
he doesn’t know where he is, the last thing he remembers was joining that new server. what even is his name again? everything is fuzzy. 
rolling over onto his back, ranboo- that’s his name his name is ranboo- is met with that haunting white mask smiling down at him. the person turns to a collection of books and quills, and begins writing more down. 
“how do you feel, ranboo?”
he stares up at the person, confused. “.... who are you?”
the person scoffs. “again? i know we’re messing with your dna here, but fuck, i- i didn’t think your memory would still be this bad!” he scoffs, leaning down and pushing his masked face far too close to ranboo. “i’m dream, and i’m your best friend.”
-
ranboo is thrown back into his body again when a deafening bang erupts, shattering the glass of the tank and spraying water all over the floor of the lab. his body courses with green and gold sparks, the shattered totem in his hand’s faint glow dimming. ranboo can barely focus on anything, his mind littered with fleeting memories of experimentation. of tests, and potions, and- and- and- 
he whimpers, blearily looking down at his white hand, broken totem gripped inside of it. the lab around him only thrusts more to the front of his brain. he regrets doing this alone, he knew that he should have asked tubbo, wilbur, anyone for help- but he didn’t.
and so ranboo passes out, eight thousand blocks away from everyone, with dream’s laugh echoing in his ears.

so like, tubbo has definitely told ranboo things offscreen while ranboo was enderwalking, right?
he says “i’m telling you this because you won’t remember it later” wayyy too much for this to not be the case
like, the first time was with the nukes iirc, and ranboo definitely appeared to remember the nukes, he wrote it down
and more recently, tubbo told him about his own execution and quackity wanting to execute him, with that same caveat, and he remembered that too
that’s a 0/2 on that statement, but tubbo still thinks that’s the case, right?
so like, it’s gotta have happened more than just those times.
(this is fully hc territory don’t mind me just making up enderwalk scenarios while i very impatiently wait for more lore)

so, something very obvious now with the new lore reveal is: revival of a person means that dream has to preform some steps, a ritual of sorts, in order to do it. 
dream needs a book, a written book. something which we don’t know the contents of, but it’s not the revive book itself. and that book, with whatever is written inside, needs destroyed. as far as we know, it needs to be destroyed by lava. 
and this is very interesting, because this isn’t the first time we’ve seen dream with a book to revive someone. actually our only other instance of witnessing dream revive a person, wilbur, we see him holding a book before ghostbur dies. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
its very hard to see, but dream is holding a written book. the lava flows down. he kills ghostbur, and wilbur is revived not long after. we don’t see him using this book anytime later on, we don’t even see a written book at all with him, so it can be assumed once the lava flowed down and the barrier opened, he killed ghostbur and tossed the book. 
so, there’s a ritual involved with reviving people! we know you need to write something in a book. now, either the real revive book is hidden or like dream said, he destroyed it. and i don’t doubt he memorized the passage in order to revive people, hence why he just needs the single use item. 
but the reason i bring this up is, as we’ve now been told by the story through interactions of dream and punz, the final disc confrontation was staged to some extent (as sad as i am about that...there’s nothing we can do about it). dream and punz had planned for dream to be imprisoned for one reason or another. it explains dream telling punz not long before that he’d “be going away for a little while” and “you’re in charge while i’m gone”. 
but there’s even more to this. the prison was built during exile, and is heavily implied to, by sam and dream, have been only for tommy. a place dream could hold tommy and show off ‘like a trophy’. 
dream helped build the prison. he helped make the blueprints. he hired sam. he provided materials. he made the rules. he made what food was allowed. sam wanted steak, dream said raw potatoes. sam built and wanted a courtyard, dream had him block it off. he wanted this place to not only in theory, be completely impenetrable for tommy and for others, but i think he also did something else.. 
he designed the prison, including the cell he was in. its funny then, that the prison cell has everything you need to revive someone. it is surrounded by lava, it contains books. and although not confirmed, there’s a moment where we see the book surrounded by obsidian, so there’s that too. 
and dream has chests full of books. he has the lectern. he has lava. as much as i hate to say it... i think he knew tommy would come back to visit, rub something in his face. 
and thats why he found a way to get (enderwalk) ranboo to set off tnt, lock tommy inside. 
we know him killing tommy wasn’t him testing the revive book now. we now know it works, and he knew it worked. he killed tommy to show tommy it worked, and to prove he has all the power in that cold little cell. 
if sam hadn’t done a check up, and tommy was there longer... 
well, dream’s first promise of ‘over and over and over and over’ again was in that prison cell. 
and he had the means to do it. he had plenty of books, plenty of lava. and tommy. 
not only was the prison built to hold tommy there, no matter if dream had ended up in prison or not, but the prison was built as a revival chamber. somewhere no one could bother them. somewhere no one would hear or see. hidden in plain sight.

I am so unbelievably excited to finally announce this! My first post about the development of the fighting game, 'Dream SMP Showdown', I've been working on! I've spent two months doing research and getting everything prepared, working on the characters etc., so it would mean so much if you could reblog/like/follow, anything to boost this project!
I'll be using the hashtag #DreamSMPShowdown for posts about the game :) (more information about the game below)
Inspired by the 'Dream smp', of course, the current project will be focused on the bench trio, as the first set of characters to be in the game. More characters will be added in the future. I'm planning on including polls, questions and overall input from the all of you, for when I need some ideas, characters or am indecisive on a certain aspect. So, hopefully that will be something fun for everyone to participate in :) - consider following me on my other socials (linktree in my bio) to be able to see more content! (Character concepts): Tommy's character is catered to be more 'beginner friendly'. He's got a variety of moves to easily grasp, including a good amount of mobility and health to work with. Shroud- his spider- will be assisting him in battle as he strikes his opponents with his wooden bat. Tubbo's character is a 'puppet character', meaning that he controls another entity on the battle field. That being the nuke; as seen in the concept art. Depending on the distance between Tubbo and the bomb, he can pick up and deal more damage with it. A little more of a complicated character, but still fun, nonetheless. Ranboo's character revolves around their enderwalk state. They have two physical states; active and non-active. Their 'non-active' state consists of their conscious-self, while the 'active' form is a more buffed version of his regular form and unlocks certain moves (aka, their enderwalk). This form can be accessed by smashing bottles of water, that fill up through certain attacks.

"MAKE THE SERVER BETTER. This is what I need to do."
An Analysis on Ranboo's Philosophy and Vision for the Dream SMP
One of the most consistent traits about Ranboo is his inconsistency, especially in his beliefs and choices, all influenced within the moment.
Now I was thinking back to when Ranboo had that explicit desire for a "happy family" when it became clear to us that he and Dream seem to share similar goals and desires for the server. It's been a few months since that stream, and Ranboo's gone through some changes as a character. Through experimentation, he relearns and rediscovers himself, most of it away from us particles. He now has the experience to choose people more discriminatingly, having a gauge on who still believes and/or benefits from his optimism and those who don't.
With a better grasp on his more persuasive and ambitious self, as well as a slightly stronger spine, I am going to attempt to make sense of what Ranboo's opinions most likely must be by now, having been in the server for half a year now.
1. "You have to think for yourself sometimes."
(from Ranboo’s first conversation with Slimecicle, 06/18/2021)
So you know how Ranboo is an anarchist, or at least identifies as such, at least within the context of the Anarchist Syndicate, right?
One of the most significant things we must pay attention to is Ranboo's anarchist tendencies. Based on his general experiences but particularly his conversation with Slime and his initiation to the Syndicate, Ranboo cares heavily about personal autonomy and the right to self-expression and self-preservation. His aversion to factional sides was initially derived from the existing factions he was exposed to being unfair and demanding of its members, as reflected in his experiences in New L'Manburg.
It's upon further inspection that these sympathies constitute his concerns over People. It's why he fights for and sides with People in general, as a concept and principle.
2. "Why can’t I have friends on opposite sides?!"
(from Ranboo’s Pre-Doomsday speech after the Community House confrontation, 01/05/2021)
Something Ranboo also believes in is the idea that everyone is valuable and capable of many things unique to themselves. Therefore, he recognizes and gives (as much as he could muster) care to Peoples' needs, concerns, and beliefs, most especially when he is demanded of it by whoever asks of him. He values loyalty toward friendships and relationships in their base form, as opposed to causes. (Especially relationships made from and because of causes.)
Another reason why Ranboo despises factional sides, especially the ones he was a part of, is that these sides' own beliefs and principles believe themselves to be above the other and vice versa. Ranboo's ability to recognize two (if not more) sides of an argument leads him to value both sides to such an extent that he believes one is not above the other. To him, People—individuals with inherent value and free will—are more than the causes—whose necessity changes over time and can only be a solution to specific, changing problems—they believe in.
3. "When the leader gets corrupted, then...we'll see what happens."
(from Ranboo's monologue after speaking with Ghostbur on the topic of killing Dream, 03/15/2021)
Something of particular fascination is Ranboo's dislike for leaders as a concept, a belief shared only by Technoblade and the rest of the Anarchist Syndicate. For them, and Ranboo, leaders are at the end of the day People. They are infallible and capable of making wrong choices. The very concept of a leader, too, suggests superiority in the ability and the dependence on only the causes of that leader, chosen or not. To them, no one should be above or below anybody. A leader creates that distinction.
An ideal SMP for Ranboo is one without leaders, where one's choices and manner of living, as dictated by their beliefs, is not above one or the other. In comparison, many characters who have expressed their visions of an ideal Dream SMP all have a leader in them!
We have Dream, who wants a server that fits his specific vision and needs and desires, a server that serves him, with his and only his vision of an ideal SMP—one where he has total control over all of the server. A less extreme version of this is held by the de-facto head of the neutral Badlands, BadBoyHalo.
Characters like Quackity, Schlatt, and Jack Manifold all believe in the concept of adherence and obedience to order and law as means to get something done. It also makes sense why these three also have a history of being quite literally Presidents of countries, whether corrupt like Manburg, discarded like Manifoldland, or ambitious like Las Nevadas.
There are also other leaders like Wilbur, Eret, and Tubbo, who have a partiality to order and leadership. The difference with them is that they believe in relative leeway in priority towards the ruled-over people. They believe in an SMP wherein a leader and their people share a mutual obligation towards each other's benefit and progress. Whether a cause that can help should be involved may be of consideration too, because as far as I know, these three mastered each of the 3 facets of the Greek art of persuasion:
Wilbur, in particular, is a heavy advocator of the use of cause in leadership, hence his use of speech to give rise to emotions, aka pathos.
Tubbo leans towards common sense and reason, having a tendency to use logos.
Eret is partial to a more general sense of righteousness, therefore basing many of his actions on the character of the people around him and having a strong focus on their and their subjects' own ethos.
4. "Who am I?" "I am somebody who stops conflict."
(from page 12 of Ranboo's current memory book)
Despite these differing ideas on what is good for the SMP, the one thing everyone has in common is that they all want a server where peace, to their standard and contentment, is achieved.
For Ranboo, this means no Conflict.
Bear in mind that he admits in his pre-Doomsday speech that Conflict can never be truly eradicated, acknowledging that personal conflicts between individual persons are still bound to happen.
Though, as stated in his various monologues in regards to killing Dream (particularly when he was grieving Tommy and after talking with Ghostbur) the Conflict he desires to get rid of is the big, overarching kind.
These are Conflicts that disrupt the happiness of, if not all, significant numbers of People. Conflicts that perpetuate a cycle of unnecessary violence, conflicts that escalate from the pettiest of disputes, conflicts rooted in a refusal of a person/faction/cause to simply coexist with everyone else.
This is Ranboo's major goal in reference to the whole of the server. This is a major motivation for all of his decisions and actions too.
5. “It should be all of us working together.”
(from page 14 of Ranboo’s first memory book)
When Ranboo explicitly repeated wanting "one big happy family," words that came out of Dream's own mouth, he's describing his vision of an ideal Dream SMP. It can be argued that he and Dream have the same goals, right?
Well, obviously, not quite.
Dream and Ranboo have very different visions for the server, the common thing being their determination to get everyone to cooperate with their vision no matter what. We see the vague and ominous actions of Ranboo while Enderwalking, how much bolder and aggressive he can get. He's seemingly more dedicated to this goal that way.
Based on the previous points, Ranboo's vision of a better Dream SMP is one where everyone exists as they are, freely and without division, where no one is above or below the other, and that they can put their dedications to causes aside for care and love for each other. People regardless of skill or situation just living together peacefully! where the Conflict is not big enough to harm but big enough to constitute what it means to be alive! No one's telling the other how to live because they understand and respect each other's choices and differences!
With how he approaches the fulfillment of this ideal, I dare say he does indeed fight for something, and it's the cause of all causes.
But what about those other people who aren't so compromising? Well, I wager those are the people Ranboo ought to snap against. Ranboo's ideal SMP is rooted in coexistence, therefore it demands compromise and tolerance. Funny just how many people on the server fight for causes that refuse to give that.
Ranboo definitely knows he can't achieve the server he wants alone, and knowing everyone else, he knows getting everyone to get along will be much harder in execution.

NEED SOMETHING TO WRITE? I GOTCHU!!! What if, the reader actually was able to control Ranboo during his enderwalk and not Dream? And Dream really wants that, so he has to get on Readers good side..,maybe flirt a lil? PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO I CAN CHANGE IT UwU THANK YOU
I am in control|| Dream x reader.
Please do not publish my work/ content to different websites and platforms, I only post my work here on tumblr and wattpad.
A/n: This might be short but this is just a brief little thingy I wanted to write, again I deeply apologize for my long absence I just haven't been in the feels to write at the moment T-T.
Gender Neutral! Reader.
Dream wanted to take control of Ranboo is his enderstate, it would serve as keeping an eye on the server without attracting any suspicion and he could spy/ watch people from a different perspective and people would just continue on with their day because Nothing suspicious about a tall ender hybrid aimlessly walking here!
But unfortunately for Dream he couldn't take control of Ranboo and he didn't know why until he had found out that you were the one who had already taken control of Ranboo's enderstate.
So much for his plan..
Dream wasn't very acquainted with you and you probably hate his guts with what the people of the smp would say about him, he couldn't just walk up to you and go: "Hey, I heard you can take control of Ranboo in his enderwalk state, can you not do that? I really wanted to do that, Thank you!" Yeah no... that sounded ridiculous.
So Dream decided it would be best to be your 'friend' and get on your good side, and maybe you'd be a bit willing to do things for him and be of use for him since he's your 'friend'.
Dream had started to visit you randomly at your place, (Whether it be a whole on palace/castle or a house you built in a secluded area he will visit you no matter how far.) You didn't know what his true intentions were but you kept a heavy guard around him, besides you briefly talked to the man and you weren't that close you were naive for the plans he had set out for you.
Lately the visits became much more often and you often quite found yourself longing for his visits, maybe you had gotten attached to him or that you you were so lonely that you were desperate for anyone's attention even if they were some power hungry bastard.
Even if Dream decided to start hanging out with you was because he wanted to be on your good side but he could never stop the small smile that manages to make it's way up to his face, the flirty comments and words he says to you and the way he feels at ease when he hangs around you and away from the rest of the smp.
Dream always reminds himself that all of it would be worth it and he shouldn't let his feelings get to him, so he just takes a breath and looks up at his face before putting his mask back on.
He's only there to use you and your only going along with it because it seems that you're using him too to fill that loneliness in your heart.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACK I WANT TO WRITE MORE TO THIS BUT THAT'S ALL I HAVE BUT I MIGHT TURN THIS INTO A FIC MAYBE or MAYBE NOT.
Anyways I hope you guys like this one QwQ, if you like my writing, why not give me a follow?

I just. I need soft Ghostbur content. I miss our ghost boy and am scared we'll never see him again.
So AU where Ghostbur lives rent free in Ranboo's head instead of the Dream Voice.
Instead of having the enderwalking state making Ranboo commit war crimes, he just occasionally wakes up in the center of a sheep farm, Friend chewing on his hair and Enderchest on his chest.
Just. Memory boys vibing together and being allowed to have some peace. (🍳)
Memory boys get to vibe with each other :]
They bond and it’s nice.

I have now processed the wilbur lore stream. So I have some thoughts.
(Disclaimer: this is all about the dream smp characters. Any opinions given are o the characters and not the content creators.)
Potential spoiler warning for the wilbur lore, Ranboo's lore within it, and the Z tweets after. If you have not seen any of these, I would recommend skipping if you enjoy watching them first.
First off. I almost 100% believe that Wilbur is manipulating Ranboo here. Key word is almost.
Because they have a point. Wilbur might have changed. But he also seems not to. I am in no way an apologist to anyone in this scenario. I am coming at this as a viewer who has watched as much lore as I can handle.
And this is why I think Wilbur is manipulating Ranboo;
Wilbur has literally one person on his side right now. And that's Tommy. But Wilbur is, in no way, stupid. He knows Tommy isn't that fond of him right now. So Wilbur goes to Ranboo.
Note how he was hesitant and disapproving at first. He didn't want to, but then he found out Ranboo had everything he needed for what he wants. He notes how Ranboo isn't afraid and how Ranboo believes in him. And then he exploits that to get Ranboo's sword. He pins the blame on both him and Ranboo for the explosion, despite knowing fully that Ranboo wasn't fond of it and was hoping for as little damage as possible.
Also. That dirty look he threw at the note left by Ranboo? He didn't even give it a chance. He isn't willingly doing anything unless he gets something out of it. If he had read the note, then he'd know that Ranboo was already interested in becoming at least neutral with each other.
The two are polar opposites. Wilbur is brash and a leader to a strict side. He hides his true motives. He hides his true colors, he said it himself.
Whereas Ranboo is quiet, he doesn't stick to sides, he follows. Yet his intentions are, what appears to be, self explanatory.
So that's what I think Wilbur is doing. I think he's trying to get that same bond as pogtopia Tommy. Where the younger will do as asked. And I think Ranboo isn't trusting of Wilbur either. Note how he tried to make snowchester as uninteresting as possible? He said it wasn't that interesting, that only Tubbo lived there. That technically he was also a part of it, before switching to the antarctic with techno and Phil.
He never mentions Michael, he never mentions the nukes.
I feel like this Ranboo is also enderwalk Ranboo. But in a slightly different way.
He's not wearing armour, which I picked up on immediately. Ranboo is my most watched streamer, and he always wears armour. I've only seen him willingly take it off to go into the prison in that dream, and when visiting Michael.
Plus, he's making constant eye contact.
And when he didn't immediately say he disliked Dream? That was an instant red flag to me. He then also said his opinion doesn't matter on Dream. Which, to be honest, I feel like Ranboo regularly would do this as a form of self preservation. Ranboo was there when Wilbur said Dream was his hero. So remaining sideless, as he always does, is the best way of keeping to his belief, and also not getting on the bad side of Wilbur.
Now onto Z. Because holy crap. Z was active as hell. Also I'm gonna use zey/zem for Z. Just as a clarification.
So. Z looks into the enderwalk, and clearly zey were watching over Ranboo in this moment. This proves again that it was enderwalking Ranboo at least during some of that.
However. Zey only tweeted about the explosion. The "their" zey refer to is almost definitely the council, who told Ranboo to chose a side and not remain idle if it came to it.
The difficult thing is, why would enderwalk ranboo chose to do it? One of the lessons was literally to not leave any evidence of what he's helped with. And another was to not let anyone find out. That sign at the end disobeys both of those rules. Not to mention he disobeyed every other lesson.
I don't think enderwalk Ranboo did the explosion. I think Ranboo did it knowingly.
Enderwalk ranboo seems to stick heavily to the rules. The only person who could even possibly know what he's done is Dream. Not even Ranboo knows what he has done unless he goes into enderwalk state.
So what if, and I'm spitballing here, the graphs that Z posted shows the bridge from regular Ranboo to enderwalk. Enderwalking being purple, signifying the end, green being for the overworld.
The dot is where ranboo's mind is.
As the dot gets closer to the middle, the closer Ranboo becomes to the end/remembering what the end is.
This is why it goes purple -> green. In most languages you read from left to right.
He started in the purple, moved to the green and lost all memory of the end, but now he's going back and is getting closer to where he started.
I don't know. This is just all word vomit at this point.

NO CAUSE FOR CONCERN UPDATED AND I AM CRYING!!!
JUST READ IT IM INCREDIBLY DISTRESSED. Thank god for a mostly comfort chapter tho we need it.
For those of you who don’t know, the fic is No Cause for Concern by hedgehoggeryyy on AO3 and it’s a tommy centric vigilante AU. Currently at 125K words and more to come. It’s a lovely fic with a great balance of hurt and comfort. The character dynamics are off the charts I highly recommend it.
Everything I say below here is SPOILERS for Chapter 24: Brothers
Enjoy screenshots of my favourite parts
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they’re BROTHERS. The alium duo content we got this chapter. We were not just fed we were given a whole BUFFET. Tommy’s so damn protective over him it makes me lose my mind. Give ranboo a hug he deserves it. Poor guy is going through so much. And I’m sure his enderwalk is connected to the egg plot. Hate to put this out there into the universe but Ranboo is part of the training program now right. So he needs a mentor? Now you see if ranboo comes into contact with any of the likely egg infected hero’s (I’m thinking puffy here as a potential mentor, close with Phil and just. Sweet. Would totally take ranboo on) I would not want to see what happens. Cause then he’s just RIGHT THERE to be a scapegoat and things can go downhill quick for him when blame starts to be placed.
That being said I am incredibly excited that we could get to see ranboo actually using his powers. Especially with the teleportation I’m very curious to see how that gets written in. If ranboo and Wilbur don’t start to bond more? Please the potential is right there get Wilbur to help design ranboo a suit that’s water protective too. Let ranboo be his intro to trusting vigilantes again because Tommy trusts him and he cares about Tommy. Let ranboo pave the way for Tommy to feel safe sharing. I’m also very excited to see ranboo and techno interact. It seems pretty clear that techno knows tommy is Theseus and has probably figured out most of the lies by now. So of course he’ll be chill and supportive with ranboo. That dynamic is simply something so special to me.
Also just give us more techno overall. No cause for concern techno has my entire heart he is such an interesting character and such a genuine nice person it’s so NICE. He’s a wonderful balance to all the other personalities and is such a good older brother figure in a role model type way to Tommy. I sense we’ll get more crimeboys angst as the lies start to fall apart more but I’m holding on to what we have right now.
I also love that we are addressing the fact tommy has serious trauma from being a vigilante and that the mental impacts are being discussed as well as the physical. Tommy takes so much responsibility upon himself, even though he did the best he could it’s either perfect or a failure to him. Some people getting hurt is still too many. It’s very interesting to see how his need to constantly help others and do all he can plays out differently with the people he has different relationships with. Like he’s willing to give it all up for ranboo at any cost, he genuinley cares and is empathetic towards wilburs situation but with techno and Phil it’s nice to see that he mostly lets them take care of him. Especially with Techno and even when he doesn’t cave you can see how badly he wants to just let it all out. Give Tommy therapy, validation and more hugs the poor child needs it.
Anyways! Head full. Heart warm. Very excited to see where things go from here!

tubbo lore analysis time! and why i think the writing from his streams is enderwalk ranboo/normal ranboo
disclaimer - i might be talking shit. but also i spent half an hour on this analysis and if i am proven wrong i shall simply perish. enjoy.
april 1
Hello? Can you hear me? I'm cold. It's very dark. I can hear them. They are underneath me. I don't make cakes often. I've never even had one. Oh no please-- I must go now. Goodbye Michael.
"hello? can you hear me? i'm cold. it's very dark." our speaker sounds like they're not used to talking a lot, which i doubt enderwalk ranboo would do - every time he's been seen in enderwalk mode, he hasn't spoken until he's snapped out of it. on top of that, something tells me that ranboo would feel and see differently in enderwalk mode - there's a possibility that he doesn't keep awake ranboo's memories the same way awake ranboo doesn't keep his. he might be new to the atmosphere of snowchester, although i don't understand the "dark" part as well - maybe it's night?
"i can hear them. they are underneath me." dream voice...? this one doesn't make much sense to me either.
"i don't make cakes often. i've never even had one." when would enderwalk ranboo ever have had the opportunity to have a cake?
"oh no, please - i must go now." it sounds like he's been offered something? the voice was previously talking about cakes, and michael, referred to by name in the next line, has a cake in his room. i feel like michael's offered him a cake upon hearing he's never had one or something like that
"goodbye, michael." it's revealed that our speaker has been talking to michael this whole time. but as we know, ranboo is VERY protective of his family, and whoever was speaking to michael was speaking in a way that sounds very fond or kind. it would make sense for enderwalk ranboo to have been speaking to his son, and maybe have to leave because he's waking up or being summoned somewhere.
april 5
Quick, I don't have much time. Stay away from the North. A strange metal weapon washed up. It poisons the nature, the water. No it's not. That's it, we are leaving.
"quick, i don't have much time." already this sounds suspicious - last time we heard someone speak, they also had to leave in a rush towards the end. why don't they have much time? same reason as last time? i've not got a fuckin scooby
"stay away from the north." what the hell is in the north? quackity's las nevadas, something else? something secret that someone has been working on, that maybe only enderwalk ranboo knows about?? once again not a scooby!!
"a strange metal weapon washed up. it poisons the nature, the water." from tubbo's stream today (ninth of april), we know that the nukes canonically poison the nature around it, so we know for a fact that this weapon was the nuke. washed up where, though? somewhere in the north? did whoever take it panic and dispose of it?? enderwalkboo is that you??? sounds like it could be!
"no it's not. that's it, we are leaving." this makes it sound like there are two speakers... or someone talking to themself, as ranboo canonically does.
april 9
Someone needs to tell him he must go to the north. If anyone can hear this, I stashed a book. It has instructions. He needs to wake up! He must! Wake up!!!!!!
"someone needs to tell him he must go to the north." well. last time, the speaker was telling to stay away from the north. sounds like our speaker's had a change of heart - or woken up.
"if anyone can hear this, i stashed a book." in today's stream, before this message appeared on screen, tubbo mentioned a book to foolish. he didn't describe it very much, but it appeared to be important. there are two important books in the current storyline right now - dream's revive book, and ranboo's missing fourth memory book, which he doesn't know the contents of, but knows belongs to his enderwalking self. inch resting....
"it has instructions." i'd like to reiterate that we don't know what is in ranboo's fourth memory book. instructions on what? the nukes, or something else? sounds important, whatever it is.
"he needs to wake up! he must! wake up!!!!!!" well, this is self explanatory. enderwalk ranboo. wake up. need i go on. actually, i will. it sounds like he's trying to snap himself out of something - his own sleepwalk state. for what reason? what does he know?? not a goddamn scooby
in conclusion: :)

The Crown ARG: A (Very) Brief Summary
Hello! I am cc!Crown, creator of the Crown ARG, a fanmade Ranboo-centric ARG that's been running since February 15th, 2021! You can find the main blog here: @if-the-crown-fits. That's where it all started! To be absolutely clear, this ARG is NOT connected to the Enderwalker ARG currently being run by Ranboo himself. This ARG is fan-made and fan-run, with NO involvement from Ranboo or any other Dream SMP content creator. Claims that we "copied" Ranboo will not be tolerated, as this ARG was started independently, a month before the Enderwalker ARG was even revealed.
This ARG is very roleplay-heavy as opposed to being puzzle-heavy, but don't worry. There's plenty of more traditional ARG content coming up soon, within the next couple of weeks or so. A little something for everyone, you know? Much of the character interactions occur on the ARG's discord server, which is where the translation blog comes in handy: @if-the-crown-fits-translate-it. These lovely folks track not only the main blog, but also important lore on the Discord, and the blogs of other arg runners, including @sydneysaysstuff (who plays the character of Baroness) and @fetcharg (who plays the characters of Fetch and Knight). They work really hard to make sure everyone is kept up-to-date on important events and information in the ARG, and the various characters involved! Give their pinned post a read-through if you want to be caught up on the lore we have so far!
If you'd like to join the Discord server, click / tap here! That way you can interact directly with the Court more often than you do here! We do go out of character there, but you'll know when we're in-character, trust me.
_________________
Content warnings directly from the Discord:
- canon-typical abuse
- manipulation
- gaslighting
- guilt tripping
- dehumanization
- power tripping
- brainwashing
- excusing abuse
- condescension
- eyestrain
- paranoia-inducing content
- derealization
- occasional body horror
Please don't participate if any of these things trigger you, as we want people to stay safe. The last thing I want, as the creator of this ARG, is for people's mental health to be negatively impacted. Also, as a very important reminder, the beliefs of characters do not always reflect the beliefs of the content creators that play them! Just as c!Dream's personality, for example, is not indicative of cc!Dream's irl personality, c!Crown's personality is not indicative of my own.
- stalking
- (new!) heavy descriptions of blood and gore
_________________
Rules for Interaction:
Don't act like you are a part of the Court if you aren't. We already have all the content creators we need involved, and we know if you're not among them, you are gamejacking.
This isn't to say you can't sympathize with the Court! I, for one, encourage you guys to figure out where your opinion on the Court lies, whether that's adamantly against Crown and the family, or all for it! All we really ask is that you don't pretend to be a content creator for the ARG ^^
Don't try to completely derail the course of the ARG. There's a story we have in place that we're trying to tell. Your input absolutely matters and affects the direction of the story, but we don't appreciate folks trying to create new plot points out of thin air.
The Discord has a moderation team! When interacting with the Court / one another on the Discord, respect the mod team. If they tell you to stop doing something, don't try to argue with them. We have rules for a reason after all ^^
(( this post may be updated at a later time to reflect changes in content warnings, as well as updated rules on what the cc team classifies as gamejacking ))

Loss of a Hero
Hi, Admin Anesthesia here :). I’m so sad. Still crying over Tommy. Based on this. There's also a reference to the wonderful song letter to a dead friend by Precious Jewel Amor.
——————–
Summary: After Dream kills Tommy, Sam tells everyone. How will all of them deal with the loss of a hero?
Trigger Warnings: Implied Suicide, Spoilers, Death
Content Warnings: Swearing
——————–
Sam was pacing around the prison area as he tried to look for the woman.
“Sam...you okay?” Puffy asked as she appeared behind him with worried eyes.
Sam jumped before sighing and nodding, “Puffy...I’m sorry.”
“What are you sorry about?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” He continued to mutter.
“Sam, what happened?”
“I failed him. I promised that I’d protect him and I didn’t. I waved off the idea because I didn’t think he was capable.”
“Sam?” Puffy asked, fearing the worst.
“He’s dead, Puffy. Dream killed him because I didn’t want to kill Dream.” Sam couldn’t look Puffy in the eyes, “I’m sorry...I know I promised I’d protect him.”
“Tommy?” Puffy’s voice was a whisper, not wanting to confirm the truth.
Sam’s little nod made Puffy’s heart sink. “Oh...Sam, you couldn’t have known.”
“But I did. I could’ve stopped it.” Sam finally faced Puffy, tears streaming down his face, “I’m sorry, Puffy. He was just a kid.”
“I know, I know,” Puffy replied, pulling Sam into a hug as her tears started to come down as well.
-----------------
Sapnap first heard about Tommy’s death when he was talking with Quackity.
“Hey, babe.” Sapnap smiled, kissing the top of Quackity’s head. He thought Quackity was praying because Quackity was kneeling down, but upon closer inspection, he knew that wasn’t the case.
“Hey, Sapnap.” Quackity gave a small smile to his fiance as he looked up at him. Quackity’s face was strewn with tears.
“What’s wrong?” Sapnap’s face immediately melted into worry, “Who hurt you? I can-”
“Tommy died.”
“Wait...what?” Sapnap’s worry turned into denial, “It can’t be. Dream didn’t have any weapons. Tommy could easily fight back.”
“He was just a child. He was my friend.”
“He...couldn’t have died. Tell me you’re joking….please.”
“Sam told us this morning. Dream beat him to death. That sick fuck even looked happy about it.”
Sapnap didn’t like Tommy that well, but the few times they got along, Tommy was a good teammate. He was just a kid. He had so much to experience still.
Tommy reminded him a lot of his younger self. Aspiring to be more than fate wrote him. So when he felt something roll down his cheek, he knew he was grieving for the boy that could’ve been so much more. The boy who would have achieved a lot more than Sapnap did.
“I have to go do something.” Sapnap muttered as he walked away, “Dream...what did you do? I told you not to do anything bad, and here you are, wishing for your death.”
-----------------
Tubbo didn’t believe that Tommy was dead. Why should he?
Sam had told Tubbo that he was alive and well the day before. The last time he thought Tommy was dead, he ended up being alive and well. Sam was probably just trolling with him. Besides...
Dream didn’t have the balls to do this.
Tubbo, at least, thought this until he had gotten Tommy’s compass from Sam.
“I think Tommy would’ve wanted you to have this,” Sam whispered as he gave the compass to Tubbo.
Tubbo’s smile faded as he pulled out his own. The compass was spinning nonstop and it didn’t land on Tommy’s anymore. It was broken.
“Sam...Sam...why is it doing that?”
“Doing what, Tubbo?”
“Ghostbur gave it to me. He said that it pointed to Tommy’s compass. Theoretically, it should still work, right?” Tubbo asked, “Tommy’s not dead. He isn’t! How could he be? Dream’s never defeated him before.”
“Tubbo... I don’t know if you want me to answer that.” Sam looked regretful.
“Please...tell me.”
“They were bound to your souls. Once one of you die, it breaks because it has nothing to bound to anymore.”
Then a heavy feeling was placed on his shoulders as he realized that his best friend was gone. And he never got to say goodbye to him.
He was too busy trying to compete against the Big Innit Hotel and goofing off with Ranboo that….he didn’t pay enough attention to Tommy.
Tommy told him that he was going to face his abuser one last time. Tubbo was so proud of him. Sam told him that Tommy was stuck in the prison with Dream. That was fine, Tubbo knew that Tommy could fight through it. After all, it was only one week.
Tubbo thought that Sam was joking when he said that Tommy was dead.
“Sam….I never got to say goodbye to him.” Tubbo whispered as he crumbled to the ground, looking at his broken compasses.
“I know.” Sam sighed, “I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I should’ve protected him from Dream. I’m sorry.”
Why wasn’t he crying? His best friend just died. Did he not care enough? Why did he feel so insensitive?
“Tubbo?” Sam asked as he knelt down beside the shaking boy.
“Sam, why am I not crying? He was my best friend and I don’t even care about it. Why am I not crying?”
“Tubbo, you don’t have to cry to show that you’re grieving. You’re just a boy still. Just...come here.”
Sam pulled him into a hug and that’s when Tubbo felt his tears come out.
“He’s gone. I was supposed to be there for him when he got out. And he’s gone.”
“He died protecting you.”
“WHAT?” Tubbo asked, standing up.
“Dream threatened Tommy that he’d kill you if he got out, and Tommy died to his hands, telling him that he’d never lay a hand on you.”
Tubbo felt everything rush to his head. It was all too much. How could he? How could Dream?
He felt angry. He needed to get his revenge. So he pulled himself together and started walking back to his base.
“Tubbo, where are you going?”
Tubbo smiled, “I’m going to finish what Tommy started. I’m going to make Dream lose his last life.”
“Tubbo-”
“Sam, he killed my best friend. He manipulated me. I’m tired of playing his games. It’s time I made the rules.”
Sam sighed and before Tubbo could leave, Sam just handed him the compasses. “Keep them safe. After all, Tommy’s compass still works, right?”
Tubbo sighed, “Right.”
-----------------
Quackity was sitting on the signature bench and he had Wilbur’s guitar in hand. He guessed that it was about as a good time as any to sing for the soul they had just lost. The strums of the guitar echoed throughout the entire Dream SMP area and soon, people were gathering around him.
“I heard there was a special place, where men could go and emancipate the brutality and tyranny of their rulers. Well, this place is real you needn’t fret, with Wilbur, Tommy, Tubbo, and Eret. It's a very big and a little bit blown up L’Manberg.”
“My L’manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg.” Tubbo started to sing, sitting down next to Quackity as he started to sing with him.
“For freedom and for liberty, our nation sought to build on these, a victory for all under democracy. Well, the darkness came, and then it went, we built a home and watched it sink, and there from rubble, there emerged L’Manberg.” Quackity sang at the same time that Tubbo had sung the verse of the ad-libbed on the day L’manberg was destroyed.
They both laughed it off as they started to sing again.
“My L’manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg. My L'Manberg.”
Tubbo had to stop because he had started to cry. “Tommy….”
Quackity just continued. He knew that Tubbo wanted him to continue the symphony. Tommy would’ve liked to hear it.
“With bloodied hands and weakened knees, our people rose like the phoenix, our empty fields and canals ‘round L’Mantree. With sweat and tears we armed our ranks, we laid foundations in our land, and from every lips fro here up to infinity.” Quackity looked at Tubbo to make sure he was okay.
Tubbo just nodded as he continued to wipe away the endless stream of tears.
And as they came to the final verse, everyone around them started to sing with them.
“We sing L’Manberg. We sing L’Manberg. We sing L’Manberg. To our L’Manberg.”
As soon as the song was done, everyone went to hug Tubbo, grief surrounding all of them.
No one thought that Tommy would be gone so soon, especially Tubbo. The one person Tommy cared about more than the discs.
-----------------
“Ranboo….what’s wrong?” Technoblade had asked as soon as he saw Ranboo’s defeated face. “Who hurt you? Was it BBH again? I can-”
“No...nothing like that.” Ranboo shrugged it off, “It’s just….Sam told me that Tommy died today.”
Technoblade snorted, raising an eyebrow, “You know he’s probably joking, right?”
“I don’t think he is.” Ranboo whispered, “Sam told me to give this to you.”
Techno raised an eyebrow before Ranboo dropped something small into Techno’s hand. Something splattered with blood.
“It can’t be.” Techno’s voice was barely a whisper.
No...that was the friendship emerald Phil had given Tommy. Techno had seen Tommy wear it as an earring during his exile time period. Techno knew that Tommy still wore it. There would be no reason for him to lose it, and more importantly, lose it with blood splattered on it.
“I’m sorry, Techno.”
Techno felt a heavy weight on his shoulders. He knew that Tommy wasn’t ready to go just yet. Techno never got to say he was sorry for betraying the boy.
“Why are you sorry?” Techno laughed, “It wasn’t you that killed him, was it?”
“He was like a brother to you, right?”
“Tommy meant nothing to me.” Techno replied coldly as he sighed, “But I’m sorry for your loss, Ranboo. I know that Tommy was your first friend.”
Ranboo just broke down, “I never even got to say goodbye to him. There were so many things I wanted to say to him. Tubbo and I were going to compete with him with our hotel. And-”
Ranboo was caught off guard by a pair of arms wrapping around him. Technoblade was hugging him.
“He meant a lot to me too,” Techno whispered as Ranboo wrapped his arms around Techno as well.
They stood there in silence, just hugging each other for the longest time until finally, Ranboo separated. “Techno...I have something to admit.”
“Your enderwalk state was the one to trap Tommy in the prison? I know.” Techno sighed, “But that’s not you. And you can make it up by coming with me and helping me kill the green Teletubby.”
Ranboo smiled as he took the sword Techno passed him, “Let’s do this.”
-----------------
“Niki, I don’t think I want to do this plan anymore.” Jack sighed as soon as he saw Niki approaching him with plans to try and kill Tommy.
“Why not? Are you really backing out?”
“Niki, look at us. We were blaming a child for something that he’s already trying to fix. You’re blaming him for Wilbur’s death, but you know just as well as me that Wilbur was not in his right mind. He chose to die at the hands of his father.”
“Jack, where is this coming from?” Niki scoffed.
“Dream killed Tommy today. Beaten to death by his abuser in a tight space, according to Sam. It got me thinking.”
“Wait...what? Tommy’s dead.”
“Niki, you never wanted Tommy to be dead, did you? You just needed someone to blame while you were grieving.”
“No, no, no, no, no, he can’t die. We still have plans to make. We were supposed to make his death happy. He was supposed to see Wilbur and face his consequences. What do you mean Dream did it? That could’ve been the worst way for him to die.”
“Niki, we just wanted to feel important to him again. He ignored us, so we forced ourselves into his story. Look back…”
“Wilbur...did choose to die, didn’t he? It wasn’t Tommy’s fault. Oh god…” Niki sobbed, “I tried to kill him. And I couldn’t focus on having fun with him. Now he’s dead.”
Jack nodded, “Me too…”
Niki just went to hug Jack, “How can I ever forgive myself?”
“Time,” Jack whispered, knowing fully well that he needed to forgive himself too.
But for now, they felt ashamed of their actions and thoughts leading up to Tommy’s death.
“At least Dream did it instead of us,” Niki whispered. “That way, we saw clearly before we made the mistake.”
“He was just a kid, Niki.”
“I know...Tommy, we’re sorry.”
-----------------
“Tubbo...did Sam tell you?” Ranboo asked as soon as he entered the Bee N Boo hotel.
Tubbo nodded, holding up the broken compass he was looking at. “Please tell me we’re just in a dream and that Tommy is still in the prison alive, waiting for Sam to let him go.”
“I’m sorry, Tubbo.”
Tubbo slumped down, “I never even got to say goodbye to him. We thought it was over when we put Dream in jail. Sam told me he was still wearing his compass when Sam went into the cell.”
“He was my first friend.” Ranboo whispered, “Of course, we immediately got into a war crime, but he was still nice to me. I’m sorry.”
Tubbo just stood up, “Can we go and get some more blocks to finish the hotel? I don’t want to think about it.”
“Sure...come on.” Ranboo gave a small smile, “We can even go and get some red and white dye to have a memorial for Tommy in the hotel.”
“That sounds nice,” Tubbo mumbled as he allowed Ranboo to pull him towards the flower field.
-----------------
“Hey...what’s up with you two? Why so gloomy today?”
Ranboo looked up at Phil, only holding out something red.
Phil raised an eyebrow as he took it, only to realize it was the bandana he gave Tommy a long time ago.
“You guys are fucking with me, right?”
Techno shook his head as he took out Tommy’s friendship emerald, “Dream killed him in prison.”
Everything came crashing down at that point. “No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he can’t be dead. Tommy’s the main character. He was supposed to show me the hotel after he got out of prison. I promised myself that I’d be a better father for him and that I would move on from Wilbur’s death. What do you mean that he’s dead?”
“I’m sorry, Phil. I know how much Tommy meant to you.” Techno sighed, putting a hand on Phil’s shoulder. “We’ll leave you alone to think about this.”
“Thank you, Techno.” Phil sighed.
Before Ranboo could leave though, Phil asked, “Did Tommy ever tell you anything about me?”
“He told me once that he missed the dad that was there for him. He said he knew you were getting better and still healing, as was he, but he was tired of you leaning on his misery in order to cope. He just wanted to have a dad again.”
With that, Ranboo left the room, leaving Phil to collapse on the ground, caving in to the voices that were telling him that he was a bad father.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Phil sobbed, “I failed you, Tommy, and it’s all my fault.”
-----------------
Tommy opened his eyes to see that he was somewhere. And nowhere at the same time. He didn’t know where he was.
“Tommy?”
He heard Wilbur and he turned around to see his brother. “Wilbur, where are we?”
“Oh, Tommy, when I meant see you soon, I didn’t mean this soon.” Wilbur pulled Tommy into a hug, “You’re in the afterlife.”
“That son of a bitch did it, huh?” Schlatt snorted, “I can’t believe he did it.”
“Schlatt-”
“Don’t worry, I’m not going to hurt you.” Schlatt rolled his eyes, “But I can’t believe that Dream killed you. To prove that the book is real.”
“Is it real?” Tommy asked.
“Nah, I’m a drunk alcoholic. How the fuck am I supposed to get a necromancy book? No...I gave him something else.”
“What?”
“A script.”
“A script?”
“Our script. See, Tommy, I was supposed to be the idiot, but I managed to be one step ahead of Pogtopia. Because I knew what was going to happen. So I gave the script to Dream in order for him to win. I knew I would die in the end and that you would get a happy ending. So I needed you to continue losing. So he became self-aware. He kept causing problems and blowing things out of proportion so that there would still be a story. Without one, he wouldn’t exist. He needed you to continue doing stuff. So in the end, he knew it was him or you. And he decided to choose you. To keep the story going for a bit longer.”
“Schlatt, you sick fucker. You never told me that.” Wilbur hissed at Schlatt.
“Well, there was no reason to. We might as well become friends again in the afterlife. There’s nothing to do here. But-”
“Tommy, we’re going to get you back and you’re going to kill that son of a bitch because it isn’t your time to die.”
“How though?”
“By the same way Dream convinced you to let him live. We’re going to guide the people to find a necromancy book and we’re going to bring you back to life.”
“Wilbur, what about you? What if I just like being with my brother again?”
“You have forever to talk to me when you die, but you still have unfinished business with the rest of the Dream SMP.”
Tommy smiled, hugging Wilbur, “Okay...let’s do this then.”
They were going to help the others revive Tommy.
-----------------
Tubbo walked to Tommy’s house. Dozens of flowers laid across the doorway and items of value were on the ground for Tommy. Tubbo was the last person to not put something there.
“Hi Tommy.” Tubbo gave a small smile, “I’m sorry it took me so long to visit your house. Everyone seemed to already give you so many flowers. I don’t know if you’d like more, but I picked them out for you.”
He knelt down at the doorway, placing the flowers.
“I also got you some of the things I’ve kept. Like blue premium bonds, blaze powder flavor therapy, signs from our pranks, swords I grinded for, blocks from my house, and-”
Tubbo couldn’t continue as he held back a sob.
“I miss you so much, Tommy. Why did you have to go?”
He put the items down before walking towards the bench. It felt empty next to him.
Opening his ender chest, he found one of Tommy’s discs in there. He put it into the jukebox next to him as a familiar tune came up.
When Tommy and Tubbo had reunited, Tubbo had shown Tommy his letter he wrote for his best friend he presumed dead.
Tubbo took out the crumpled paper from his pocket.
“I miss you. The memories flashed back tonight. I want to tell you, but I’m sure you’re alright. I can’t move on from the pain and the loss that I gave you. My world is silent right now. I finally live in peace, but it seems like everyone’s been fooling me. I thought that I was fine, but now that you’re gone, I wish I had more time. Don’t you remember you call me your Tubbo? I once assured you, together we’ll grow, but now I’m alone and I don’t know what to do. Everything just leads back to you. I miss you as I sit by the horizon myself. It’s not true, I won’t forget the good times we shared. You told me it was us against the world and I’m sorry I have left you all injured and hurt. My world is silent right now. Don’t you remember I call you my Tommy? I used to tell you that I’ll never leave, but now that I did, and I don’t know what to do. I’m sure everything will lead back to you.” Tubbo read out loud, the tears dropping from his face onto the paper.
And for some reason, he couldn’t stop reading the last sentence. It made sense.
“Everything will lead back to you. Everything will lead back to you.” Tubbo sobbed. Everything he had done was for the good of Tommy or L’manberg. He just wanted to be back with his best friend again.
“Sincerely yours, Your Tubbo.” Tubbo whispered as the song ended and he put everything back into his ender chest.
He felt exhaustion come over him and he laid down on the bench, his tears still flowing down his face. Sleep came over him soon as he cried himself to sleep.
Tommy was gone for real this time and Tubbo couldn’t do anything to reverse it.

Going Forward (Or, the Enderwalk Arg and You)
So your streamer started an ARG a month into your project to catalogue his inventory every stream!
Jokes aside:
Ranboo has said that you won’t need to follow the ARG in order to understand his character lore. It’s just for fun, and it will give information on certain things, but it’s not going to be required for you to participate! I imagine it’s going to mostly tie into world-building and backstory for his character, just based on what we saw today.
There may be streams that are entirely for the ARG, there may be hints to the ARG in streams, and there may already have BEEN hints for the ARG! (I am looking directly at that coded inventory message from a few weeks ago.)
Uh, somewhat obviously given that we keep falling behind on inventory posts, I can’t possibly keep up with everything! So!
ARGs like this, by their nature, are meant to be played collaboratively, not alone. Due to Who I Am As A Human Being, I struggle with being in large discords. So those of you who are participating in the ARG are invited to be my teammates over here!
You’re always free to tag me in anything (just specify if you want it reblogged or not), the inbox is always open (with anon on; I’ll publish it unless you tell me not to), and DMs are also always open!
I do generally try to fact check things before I present them to you here; it’s why things can be so slow while I track down single items, to make sure I’m giving you the most accurate information possible. Misinformation spreads so fast in this fandom, and I’ve been trying to do a tiny bit to counter it. Again, due to the nature of ARGs, I’ll be trying to fact check theories and things, but I’m definitely going to present wrong information to you at some point. This is in part because I am, in fact, incredibly oblivious.
This is all to say that yes, I will be participating and trying to puzzle out the ARG! There will be more reblogs than usual here!
If you’re here purely for the inventory content, I’m going to try to stay on top of that too. We may end up missing a few days, and it may slow down to where I’m only doing changelogs unless something major happens, but it will still be here!
Tags to pay attention to:
#enderwalk arg = everything related to the ARG, will include reblogs
#changelog = ONLY search this on the blog; all of the changelogs
#ranboos inventory = changelogs + image logs
#mod notes = asks, personal posts, announcements
Thanks for sticking with me this long!

hi, cc!llyr here! this is an rp blog for the character i play while interacting with @/if-the-crown-fits, a fanmade ranboo-centric arg (that was started a month before and has no correlation to the enderwalk arg).
the blog is mostly going to be a mess of aesthetic photos and character development, so if you’re into that then stick around i guess.
