c!Dream’s lore finale [15:27]

Dream lore finale for Dream SMP. That's pretty good. It's a good topic. What about it? Let's talk about it. I think it turned out great. I- I really, I was really happy with it. Obviously, if we had more time and, and everything, we could do, do more. But I'm happy with what we, what we did, with what we were given. And I'm happy with how everything went. It went great. 

I quite enjoyed playing the character, and I like, I like, like role-playing and stuff is fun, obviously. Had a good time. It was great. Kind of the daily streams. Streaming with. With Tommy, it went back. It took me back to back in the day. Tommy and Tubbo and everything. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it.

I think revealing a lot of the stuff that in terms of intentions. It was all stuff that has kind of already been out there, but not like kind of concise and also not like to Tommy- c!Tommy and c!Tubbo. But you know, it was fun. It was fun. I enjoyed it.

c!Tommy’s limbo [21:15]

“Can you talk about why c!Tommy saw that in his limbo?” I'd say that that's, that's more of a question for Tommy than, than me. Because my reasoning is, well, it's, it's what pushes the story along. But I don't know what the- Tommy's reasoning behind, behind it is and what Tommy's character's reasoning behind it is. So.

I think that the way that I would, I would look, I would interpret it is that-- It's kind of like it, like Tommy wants like-- This, this is what, this is how I would interpret it. And totally, Tommy could completely disagree. So feel free to disregard everything I'm about to say if you don't like it at all.

But I would interpret it as that Tommy really wants like for his friends to, to be able to, you know. If for it to be simple and for him to just be having fun with his friends. You know how, how, he- how it used to be back in the early days of the server and so seeing that but for his, you know, for-- seeing that, but for Dream. You know, the, the-- Dream experiencing what he, you know, what he wants. And of course, Dream is his nemesis, whatever. That's how. That's how I would interpret it.

c!Tommy did not forgive c!Dream [23:31]

“Hi king, can you confirm the interaction between Dream and Tommy wasn't a forgiveness, it was just understanding?” Yeah. No, no, Tommy wasn't forgiving, was not forgiving Dream. I think it was a-- I think Tommy, Tommy had never seen Dream other, as anything other than just this evil, you know, bastard that's doing all these horrible torturous things to him. Which he did and was. And had never, never stopped to think about or, or even imagine, you know, what Dream was like before, you know, in the, in the past. So it was more of a humanizing moment of kind of like a, you know, this person's, this, hey, this person's a human, too. We're both from the same place, whatever.

It was, it was definitely not, “Oh, that means that everything's OK.” Like, I think Tommy said this. Tommy said the same thing in the lore. He was like, “Well, it doesn't, you know, I understand, you know, what your goal is, but this isn't how you do it.” And I think it was one of those things where you-- In my mind, it was, it was a moment of, you know, before in, in the past, you know, you're never going to, if you don't understand somebody's intentions, you don't understand somebody's goals, you don't understand why somebody, what somebody wants and you go into every situation with a, “Well, you're, you know, you're evil or you're, you know, you're a bad person,” you know, whatever. Then you're never going to convince the other person. And it's the same thing with-- You're never gonna make any ground with anybody.

And I think that, so it was, it was the first time where, ever between Tommy and Dream, where they had any, any kind of understanding with each other. Because they had always just been at each other's throats and had always been. You know, fighting for so long. It had never stopped to really, really try and understand each other, but especially for, for Dream. As, as obviously his motives for a million different things had just been, had been up in the air and had been things that not only did the audience not know, but the, the characters themselves don't know either.

But yeah, so I'd say it was, it was 100%. It was not. It was not a forgiveness thing. It was a, it was an understanding. And it wasn't an understanding with a level of forgiveness. It was just understanding it completely. It was just a-- And I think it was more of a Tom- Tommy going up, you know, for the longest time, operating under the impression that Dream is just this, you know, evil bastard that. That, you know, “just enjoys, absolutely enjoys torturing me” and whatever. And, you know, that's the thing is you can interpret things how you like. But I- I'd say that there, there is an element there, and there, there is an element of enjoyment from, you know, from Dream's perspective. Because of, because of the, the past and their history together and whatever. I'm sure Dream does derive some joy from the actions he's seeing, the things he's put Tommy through and whatever.

But obviously those are-- He's not going into it with the intention of, “Oh, I- I- This is my, my goal is just to bring hell to Tommy or bring hell to the server” or whatever. And so I think that the, the moment of understanding is more understanding that if, if that's not, if that's not Dream, if Dream's intention isn't or Dream's main goal is not, you know, being an evil person and, you know, deep down he, he, he does have good intentions even if he's is an evil bastard for the way he went about things. That maybe there is a way to make it work. You know, because if you're just, if you're just pure evil then, you know. You get, get rid of, get rid of it from the earth, you know. Versus if, you know. Oh, you're, you've done horrible things. You deserve to pay, you to deserve to pay for them. You deserve to be punished for them. You deserve to have repercussions from them. But at the same time. Yeah, you can-- There is a way where we can work together because we have the same, we have the same goals, we have the same morals, we have the same, you know, whatever in mind. That’s kind of how I look at it. I don’t know if that-- I don’t know. I think it’s also more up for interpretation.

c!Dream’s plans for the prison [28:23]

“What would have happened if c!Dream's imprisonment had lasted longer?” I don't know what you mean by that. I think that the, the, the biggest, like, behind people, cause people were saying, “Oh, Dream purposely put himself in prison.” So I was like, “Well yeah, but no.” And from my pers- my understanding of it is, yes, Dream did purposefully, you know, put himself into the prison. And the prison was a part of the overall plan in terms of-- It wasn't, it wasn't, I didn't-- 

The prison wasn't built for Dream. The prison was built for the, for fulfilling Dream's goals overall and the ability to do that and one of those things was to-- Obviously, there'd be, there'd be certain people that would be more likely to get in the way and unlikely to-- And, and also having the understanding of the fact that there was a revival book. Dream, after kind of becoming aware of that and, and coming to possession of one himself, Dream had the idea that, well, you know, what if. What if somebody like Techno or somebody like, you know, somebody strong. 

And I'd say, in my mind, that it was originally, when I came up with the idea for it, it was, it was more so based on Technoblade. And the reasoning for it was Dream being scared of the fact. Well, what if there's more? What if there's more revival books and what if death is not, you can't stop somebody with death? Like it's, it's scary knowing that you can, you, you can beat somebody fully and then they're just there. And so he thought the idea of making a prison where if that ever does come to be where somebody is trying to stop, stop him, stop his goals, stop, you know, hurt the server or whatever that they'd be able to be stopped by putting them in the prison. Which is kind of funny because, obviously, it kind of ended up being the opposite but when Dream- c!Dream put himself into the prison. It was, it was thought of as a very, it was thought of as a temporary thing and ended up lasting a lot longer than he had imagined. And also, on top of that, he didn't expect that Awesamdude would let Quackity into fucking torture him. So that obviously made things a million times worse. But. 

Just to clarify, the prison wasn't built for Techno, but it was just like. Oh well, Techno's-- Seeing Techno’s power and stuff back then and being like, it was one of those things where it was like. Oh. What if somebody as powerful as Technoblade? You know, there are people that can be as powerful as, as, you know, as me or whatever, as c!Dream and so. What if one of them is is not on our side? Or what if Techno is not in the future? Whatever.

hey maggie wtf was all this

#on my mf hands and knees dude. how am i supposed to be normal #the way that ronan says 'oh yes' is. exactly the same as when gansey said 'am i in your dreams' and ronan said 'oh yes baby' #oh to see without my eyes #i LOVE seeing ronan from ganseys pov. you incredible creature. ronan was broken ronan was fixable ronan had a soul. what is it my dog needs #et cetera #trc

Back on my bullshit

#a.txt #wip #would you believe me if I said a random ass dream I had the other night spurred me back into action #because that's exactly what happened #Imelda taking up her title as ringmaster of the shit show once again cause I can't help myself

[magnusbae]

yall guys didn't even hear me rant about how fucked it is that Dream was not allowed to mourn his raven and how his feelings been bluntly disregarded because clearly someone else knows best for how he should mourn the loss of his companion

#I am not even nearly started ranting about how badly Dream is treated in every single episode other than episode 6 😂 😂 😂 😂 #Needless to say lucienne wasn't exactly /okay/. #Imagine your beloved friend or pet had died and someone tells you 'you need to get a new one' and you say you're not ready and unwilling #And they go and get you one anyways :))))) #We can love Matthew but it doesn't make it any less fucked that Dream's mourning and loss wishes and feelings been fully disregarded #After he clearly communicated what he wants and doesn't want #It would have been find if he said nothing and wasn't ready—an unfortunate situation #But he literally said he CAN'T have any more Ravens #The only time we saw dream cry was over Jessamy #He wasn't allowed any time to truly mourn her #And someone just decided that they know best and got him a raven despite him saying no #..... Ah...... Whoops.... It's defend dream to the fucking death week... I guess. #buns.txt #dream of the endless #buns.hc #buns.all

[polaroid-petals]

I'm this close to writing a fic where a few weeks post-confession, Hero has a dream where he gets the option to stab Basil in order for Mari to have never died, only for his knife to stab not this fictional dream version of Basil, but the real twelve-year-old one, whom he then slowly watches die as he's unable to save him from the gash in his stomach.

To his horror, as he wakes up four years after the murder with no memory of what happened afterwards, he learns that he covered up the murder, and he has no idea how or why he did it.

#polaroid posts #hey when the note of for science said that pain is reserved for all my other fics this is what i meant #i am a hard angst writer usually this fluff is a fluke #anyway #it's not exactly that hero mirrored basil and sunny's actions #when basil died hero decided he'd turn himself in #he wouldn't make the same mistakes that sunny and basil did #he understood why he had this dream and would face punishment and offer his friends closure in this dream #only for his memories to cut out and for him to wake up four years later in mari's arms and learn that basil one day disappeared #with no idea what he actually did in those four years #what he did between basil's death and now #everyone's lives have been torn apart afterwards #and this dream is starting to look a little too real and last a little too long… #i have the entire thing mapped out but grrr no time #i'll already say that aubrey got the shit end of the stick here #babygirl is suffering horrendously #might just write it

As one of the droolish fighters, you have to admit it's very funny that Wilbur lost to the dude who only saw Dream once and yet may have understood post-prison Dream far better than anyone else save Punz.

Nah, more than c!Punz. c!Punz was the Plan which didn't reeeeally demand understanding c!Dream, just well. Working with him. c!Punz and c!Dream and the gulf between them in terms of actual understanding is what really defines how they're portrayed in the finale. on the other hand c!Wilbur's whole thing with c!Dream in inconsolable differences ... kind of speaks for itself.

#my asks !! #personally i think c!wilbur should've met c!sam. maybe c!dream can be there. As A Treat. #like listen ill be the first to say that c!dreambur confuses the fuck out of me i wish i could definitively say i knew what was going on #there but i definitely dont #all that being said tho like c!wilbur's ability to read people should not be underestimated #and he's never once struggled to get c!dream to work with him on his terms #from the revolution to when he leaves the damn server #so yeah. uh. c!wilbur gets how he ticks #does anyone else ever think abt how wilbur found out abt the torture before punz #does anyone else ever think abt how wilbur kinda like knew exactly what q was quoting with that torture maim mutilate thing #because he directly references it when he receives q's book #and he had reasonable reason to believe that q was torturing dream #like before tommy outright confirms it to him #does anyone else ever think abt how dream trusted wilbur to break him out of that prison. ANYWAY. #im so not normal abt them sorry

sometimes i kinda wish mirei wasn't killed off because boy the divorced exes dynamic with majima could've been so god damn funny

#everyones seen my 'if you see my ex-husband at pride' post. thinking about that sort of thing #like yeah i know y5 said they werent exactly on bad terms (though i think that was vague and debatable considering the way she #recounts her backstory with haruka not really painting him in a great light- for understandable reasons mostly dont get me wrong- but my #point is . i think there may have been more passive aggressive animosity lingering in there than what was presented in the romanticized #retelling of the story later on in the game basically). but come on. you cant tell me they'd get along just fine if she were to have lived. #say what you will about her and her intentions and etc but regardless she DID tear kiryu's family apart and guilt trip the SHIT out of him #to do so. knowing majima. and knowing how majima feels about kiryu. do you think he'd be like. cool with that #like if/when he heard the whole story i do Not think mirei's Heartwarming Vicarious Dreams would be enough to excuse the damage she did #and its such a wild coincidence itd be hard not to think- at least just a tinnnyyy bit- that she somehow found majima's weakpoint #(kiryu) and attacked it on purpose out of spite or something. #yeah all that and i think their relationship mustve been inevitably Very toxic and fucked up considering. everything about both of them #especially at that point in time. plus the very weird and not great gap in maturity (18-19 vs 27-28) and all that. no way that ended just #totally chill and amicable. no fucking way. she had fair reason to harbor resentment towards him and i wouldve liked to see that honestly #anyway so i mean you see what im getting at. perfect setup for the most toxic but kind of hilarious divorced dynamic Ever #if she were to ever come anywhere near kiryu again majima would be there in 0.2 seconds to sheild him from impending psychological warfare #rambling #majima #mirei #y5 #yakuza 5 spoilers

[spellsparkler]

row's dearest desire is to be in a deeply codependent relationship. this is why the emperor has such an easy fucking time

#not a joke or an exaggeration!!!! #row's highest held quality in any relationship dynamic ever is reciprocity. they will not continue to give if there is no equal return #but they are fundamentally incapable of being normal about any relationship ever. no middle gears. #(this is a big part of why they struggle to be close to anyone in a way that lasts - because if they get less than they give #it's a slight and a sign to stop bothering. but no-one can healthily match what they've got going on. they hold an impossible standard) #(the other big part is their simultaneously far too high and far too low self esteem) #the emperor thought it could capitalise on their need for external approval with a powerful and cryptic figure #who trusted them with a lot but still left them a little in the dark. #WRONG. #turns out that the 'two little freaks who hold each others' lives in their hands' gambit would have been a better one from the beginning #row didn't know what they had to offer the dream visitor and they didn't trust it enough to believe what it said they owed it #but they know - more or less - what the emperor wants from them #(destroy the absolute. become illithid. profit?) #and they know exactly what it's doing to help reach those goals #neither can fuck over the other without dooming themselves #the ideal relationship pattern for faerun's most mentally ill gnome #anyway #row tag #I'm so normal about them. worst duo of all time. I think I have created something beautiful (it sucks so bad)

[girl-bateman]

Had a dream where I flirted with Hayden Christensen, delivering this iconic line:

"you know who I find reeeeeeeeally hot........ (glancing at his lips and pausing dramatically) Christian Bale! His performance in American Psycho is simply perfection and I doubt anyone else would portray the character so faithfully to the book"

And then we made out

#ok ok to be fair i dont remember exactly what i said abt the performance so im paraphrasing #and TECHNICALLY we didnt make out he just stuck his fingers in my mouth and then my sister woke me up 😒 #btw i know this is my second dream abt christian bale but i really am not attracted to him in any unique way #like he is hot and talanted but my attraction to him is a normal amount and shouldnt have me dreaming abt him repeatedly #im more than ok with it tho dont get me wrong #also i havent even seen the star wars movies with anakin so i had to google who tf hayden christenson was

[itachikun]

if/when i have a kid I'll offer them time and the best private education i can afford but theyll have to get accepted into a public university. I'll not pay university for anyone

#was talking about it to my bf just now #i graduated twice from two public universities and both of us from USP which is the best uni in LATAM in spite of all #we got accepted to more than one public university when we went thru the entrance exam #well even pay up to 2ys of prep course if our kid wants to go for med school for instance #but thats it #i guess this is my problematic parent trait #but cOME ON to provide a person with the best scenario for them to still fail????? #other ppl around the world would dream of having what you have and still they cant make it??? #i remember one speech from angelina jolie where she recognises exactly this #that she was given EVERYTHING to be where she was and thats why she was there #not because she was the best or a genius but because she was given the support the time the contacts the training to get there. its all mon #and that there may be women out there in refugee camps much more talented than her with a bigger drive than her but that could not make it #because of lifes injustices. so yes of course she had to #mr #getting into public unis is not even that hard tbh like my bf said you just have to know how to take the exam #and I'll be content with any public uni #doesnt have to be USP #although itd be a nice little family tradition #like haddad has

[minecraftdog]

i can't agree more with what is dream saying about us hating other creators just because we disagree with what they did on a few instances but the problem is he now is gets insane amounts of hate and his words get mis-constructed based on some clips. non of those people actually listened to what he said. he wasn't naively calling tommy or quackity his friends and that they did nothing that didn't hurt him. but he also wasn't calling anyone out or starting drama. he very maturely stated that everyone has their own perspective and views those situations through their emotions and that doesn't make anyone a bad person. just passionate. and everyone had their own ways of dealing with things and is good at different things. obviously illegal activities are wrong and no one on either side should be doing them. but our perspective is bias and constantly arguing and calling people out is not productive and won't bring the community back together

#listening to this vod takes me forever but i want to know exactly what he said #i still feel hurt by q as a person who was quite a big fan of him #and there's a lot of things that make me doubt that he is entirely a good person but that's true i have never knew him personally #and he had the right to be mad and hurt by that situation #i just wish people would listen to what dream said and not blatantly lie about him :/ is it too much to ask for? #doggie talk #discourse

[sacha-da-1]

I’d like to apologize to Bedelia for the things I said to her while I was Will Graham in my dream. 😂

I was in character okay? Sorry Bedelia, pretty impressive you escaped those bastards after the incident though! I think you earned their respect (at least in the dream, sorta?), go live your life!

#will graham #bedelia du maurier #hannibal was in the dream too and we were a couple #since i was will #it was post fall and bedelia had someone escaped after the leg incident #somehow* #hannibal arrived late so he didn’t get to see me threaten bedelia lol his loss #i think we basically let her go though #i was just being a bitch bc well that’s what will does around her lol and found her again after all that #i don’t remember exactly what i said but i remember the vibes #basically taunting her about finding her again and probably something about the leg thing #on brand bitch graham stuff #real me felt bad about it even tho bedelia is bedelia

[biboybuckley]

i had the WEIRDEST fucking dream last night

#i had a job #and was like in love with one of my coworkers who was a few years older but i didn’t know how old exactly #and then his son came in one day #and i couldn’t believe he had a SON who was close to my age and started getting confused #bc this guy didn’t look older than like late 20s #and so a couple days later (it was a long dream) we’re talking #and i said something about how being a teen parent must’ve been hard #and he looked at me super confused #and goes ‘no i had him as an adult’ #so i was like …how old are you bro #AND THIS MAN LOOKED ME DEAD IN THE EYES AND SAID 62 #SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT THIS MEANS BECAUSE IM DEEPLY CONCERNED #HE LOOKED LIKE 25 AT MOST

[agallimaufryofoddments]

Checking the Fate/strange fake TV special again, and that PV from 2019 again, and wow, yep, two hours later and it’s still surreal that these are characters written by Narita who are speaking audible words against mainstream J-Pop music for a megafranchise with more fans and money that any original Narita IP could ever conceive of.

Narita characters...who are speaking and will in two months be speaking dialogue Narita has written for light novels he has published. Narita’s name in huge typeface for a TV special which may or may not be a prelude for a summer anime that mainstream audiences are going to care about.

The TV special teaser is frankly underwhelming only because the first two thirds of it is just a build-up list of Fate anime until now (2004...F/sn! 2010...title! 2012...title etc.!), except of course it’s building up to, this, “the next Fate,” Fate/strange fake, and that, I concede, is hyping F/sf up. It is treating F/sf like a big deal, or at least worthy enough to be included in the line-up of all those other notable Fate entries. 

I can see why people think it’s portending a summer TV anime. Sawano as composer, teaser as self-important for a self-important franchise...what I’m getting at is... The teaser is treating F/sf like such a big deal in a way that Baccano! never quite got (and, hell, Durarara!! was popular enough, but just...not this popular), so it leaves me with slight bittersweet wistfulness over what could have been with Baccano!

“Wow...  Imagine a 2023 twentieth anniversary Baccano! anime treating the source material with this much magnitude. wheeze”

(No, hype and magnitude never guarantee the actual product will be well-executed, but c’mon, it’s not worth being spitefully pessimistic when what the hell, that’s Narita being treated like a big deal right there.)

#Fate franchise #Fate/strange fake #F/sf #Even if 75% of people don't notice his name in the credits! #Imagine a B! anime website made in 2023 what the gee willickers. #I think I've said this before but if a miraculous anything happens next year for B!'s 20th anniversary and some B! website needs to happen #they had better go the Durarara!! route and preserve the 2007 anime website exactly how it is—thereby showing it with some goldang respect. #how about treating his original works with more respect than his secondary works rabblerouse rabblerouse #No I am not so silly as to think F/sf will cause a Narita renaissance where people actually read something besides Durarara!! #The 2023 Narita Renaissance / Year of Narita is just a nice little fantasy I like to entertain myself with #and I'm not about to let a little big thing about F/sf being animated do the opposite of crushing that dream. #No no no. The majority of F/sf viewers will likely be only marginally aware of Narita and not bother to look into him f*rther #and I'm going to keep my expectations low—I'm going to put them right next to my expectations for B! Vol. 23 and Vamp! VI and EB 5656! II
