i'm losing my mind bc like for so long SO LONG we've been saying that his attitude is "you think i'm evil? i'll show you evil" and cc!dream just goes and is like "yeah exactly"

specially with it also being estabished that he did not intend to play c!dream as a villain from the beginning (an obvious thing to anyone who watched the l'manberg arc and didn't fall for the l'manberg propaganda -- which btw has been called into question lately also with both boundless sands and the las nevadas finale). the way he said that the change occurred exactly when we picked up on it occurring (the end of the pogtopia arc) because nobody was willing to play the bad guy, so he had to develop his character in that direction

#'why is c!dream like this' well if you can open your eyes and also your ears you may have noticed how his character was treated and may come to see the dot-by-dot throughline for how he got to where he is! but that requires paying attention to more than one thing at a time and for some of y'all that's very hard to do :( #(y'know that we'd have a much different story if cc!dream hadn't taken the burden of being the ~bad guy~ right? oh wait i forget #the stupid propaganda was already working entirely too well for most of y'all :/)

he has his plan and he fights for it and he sacrifices everything for it, most of all himself, 'I'm not going to stop until you put me down' because it's either he wins or he dies, and so the prison is nothing the torture is nothing the trauma is nothing because the alternative is giving up and losing and what was the point, then, of all of it? what was the point of so much pain, caused and taken? what was the point of surviving so far in the role they made for him and losing everything if he doesnt fight to the end for bringing it all back?

Ok what is the worst fandom you've ever been in? I'll go first. Jojo.

Guuuuuuys how the fuck are we going to survive regular c!Dream POV streams

We're fucking not

People fought for fifteen hours and counting over a paragraph

people will say "don't take what c!dream is saying at face value he is manipulative !!! he's trying to paint himself as a victim !!!!!" then go ahead and take his taunting of c!tommy by saying he was "fun to mess with" completely at face value and as 100% proof that he enjoys hurting c!tommy and that's his primary reason for doing anything

#mf literally talking to himself is manipulation but talking to the contrarian is unarguably his 'true self' bro trust me

“Is the snake that bites you out of the blue evil?”

There was actually a really popular book about being pretty close with 12 people. I won’t tell you how it ends, but let’s just say the main character is in a better place now.

killing you

One year ago today, Dream hunched in the corner of an obsidian box (a hell, not a prison) and he tried to say the words that would make them stop.

One year ago today, Dream bowed to Sam and begged for his life.

One year ago today, Dream pleaded with Quackity that he couldn’t answer his questions, please don’t.

One year ago today, Dream mumbled to his Warden about good guys, and bad guys, and good guys doing bad things. And Sam told Dream, “You deserve this. You’re the bad guy here. You’re lucky I don’t tell Quackity you’re here.”

Today, Dream reflects. Today, Dream terms himself a snake. An animal, kicked; a protector, threatened.

Today, he thinks, of himself: It must have had a reason.

Can we talk about the dehumanization in c!Dream’s monologue? He isn’t comparing himself to a person who was threatened, who was hurt, and whose family was in danger. He is comparing himself to an animal. He isn’t giving himself any kind of agency—only that of instinct.

And he is saying, look, even snakes are treated better than I am. Even animals are afforded the dignity of having their motives questioned.

“Unless you’re saying that I’m not a person.”

Some snakes do just bite

all c!dream needed was a kind word. a hand reaching out. just a little bit of care, a little bit of concern. and he never got it. not even from his closest friends. his family. his family who all saw how he changed and never thought to ask why. his family who are the reason for everything that he's ever done. if just one person had reached a hand out to him, would things have been different? would he be something other than completely, devastatingly alone? does it haunt him, that future that could have been? does he close his eyes and picture who he could have become if just one person had been kind?

#og8 did enable/look away /until/ it affected them and then they did fuck-all in terms of trying to reach out to him #(which...tbh...bothers me a lot w/r/t og8 'cause like...their feelings are valid whatever but mine lord that was your FRIEND??? :/) #i wonder if dream spends a lot of time thinking about how they must not have cared as much about him as he did (does) care about them since they were so quick to abandon him when the going got a little bumpy/they might've needed to put in some effort to talk to him #drives me 'round the twist fr fr i'm so bothered that c!dream didn't get to keep anybody but c!punz (even if i love staged)... #(what does that do to someone? to be abandoned by their /family/ like that? did that just push him harder? did he come close to breaking?) #hhhhh c!dream i wish you had an actual support system like you deserve!!

hey guys do you think that c!dream wanted someone to ask him how is he and why does he do this, because they want to help him, not to have another reason to hate him and no one every fucking did?

Nooo because he changed so drastically and suddenly and he must've thought surely someone will ask me about this? Some of these people were his friends for YEARS, they were a family!! Surely someone will ask him what happened to you? why are you doing all of this?

But they never did and his best friends believed his enemies without question and one of his friends hated him so much he starved him and let him be tortured and his best friend, his brother vowed to hunt him down and kill him AND THEY NEVER ASKED!!

I fully understand that the preponderance of evidence is that George Lucas put absolutely zero thought into what Naboo’s culture was actually supposed to look like outside of what we see on screen, but as far as unintentionally effective worldbuilding goes, establishing that Naboo a. has a tradition of electing literal children as figurehead rulers of its planetary government, and b. apparently also has a tradition of assassinating these children with sufficient frequency that dressing up a bunch of other children as decoy targets has become standard operating procedure by the time of Padmé Amidala’s reign suggests that maybe the fact that this random backwater is a breeding ground for Sith Lords isn’t as unlikely as it initially appears.

#yes! this is what i’ve been saying! #i’ve always headcanoned that the reason they have child monarchs in the first place #is to try and discourage the assassination attempts #like #alright i know you’ve poisoned our last five queens #but this one’s an adorable child! #you wouldn’t poison a CHILD would you? #and even if you would no you wouldn’t #because ACTUALLY you’ve poisoned the decoy

#and like… headcanon part 2: if I were trying to discourage assassination attempts #you know who I’d recruit to be my handmaids and decoys? #that’s right: the daughters of my political rivals #you thought you poisoned the queen? #psych you idiot that’s the minister of finance’s niece #fuck it maybe that’s YOUR niece

#sure you haven’t seen her since the Queen ‘invited’ her to join the Royal retinue #but are you really gonna risk it? #better to just cool it on the poisonings for a bit isn’t it? #try out this fun new thing called ‘diplomacy’ i really think you’ll like it!

#and like– maybe they did cool it and Naboo as a society moved on from that era #and kept the trappings as a reminder of how far they’ve come #or maybe they didn’t and the whole system is just threats behind smiling faces #who knows! certainly not us outsiders! I’ve heard Naboo’s a peaceful society and very fond of diplomacy actually #and what a quaint little government they have! their queen’s fourteen i hear #how very… sweet (via @allogrim )

you don't get it the finale was fake, c!punz is still his ally, c!ranboo is waiting for him, he saw everyone calling him a villain and he said 'oh yeah? i will give you a villain'. he wants to make the server a family again, he built a prison for himself

“I’m not gonna stop until you put me down. Because I’m no longer protecting my eggs. They’re already gone.”

just jam probably,,

Dream !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
