Dream SMP Theory: Hero & Villain

Alright Guys, Gals, Demons, Ghouls and Multi-Fandom Fiends! I am back, baby with another theory! Yes, I know it’s been a long time since I did one of these and I know I’m really late in joining the fandom. But I want to get my thoughts out on this, and see what you Fiends think as well!

Now spoiler alert! I’m new to the Dream SMP Fandom and I know I have a lot to catch up! I am catching up on the Disk Saga and the L’amburg Lore. So, this theory is kinda around there.

So, to start off, for the past couple of months I’ve been doing a lot of “Lore Exploring” with the Dream SMP and I have to say, I’m really enjoying this! I know I have a lot of catching up to do with the Disk Saga and the L’amburg Lore but so far what I discovered so far is that there is some type of “Battle/War” between c!Dream and c!Tommyinnit. It all started over c!Dream going after c!Tommyinnit for the Disks (not sure on the why) but then it led to c!Tommyinnit’s exile with c!Wilbur Soot from L’amburg.

And my Theorist brain kept asking one question. Why? Why was c!Dream targeting c!Tommy? Why was c!Dream so interested in the Disks? Why was c!Dream visiting c!Tommy during c!Tommy’s exile? And I think I may have an answer as to why.

See at the very beginning it was just c!Dream and his friends, playing 1vs 3 and 1 vs 4 Manhunter Sprints and making videos. Then c!Dream invited c!Tommy to join the server. Then more people began to join the server and that’s when some of the role playing took place. This is where my theory comes in I swear! I think c!Dream knew that without some kind of balance on the Server, then the Server would become stale, boring, chaotic, Anarchy. Everyone is doing their own thing without some kind of “Guidance.”

I think c!Dream knew that the Server needed some kind of balance, a Yin and Yang. c!Dream gladly took up the “Role” as the Server’s Villain but he knew that there needed to be a hero. “Hero is only as good as their Villain” to borrow an old quote. But the same can be true about the Villain, “A Villain is only as good as their Hero.” c!Dream needed a “Hero” for the Server and as we all know, from Comics/Stories/FanFictions, a “Hero” has to have some kind of traumatic backstory. Enter c!Tommy.

c!Tommy joined the Server a few months after c!Dream and his friends were doing the 1vs 3, the 1 vs 4 Manhunts. Now, I don’t know why c!Dream was so focused on the Disks and constantly hounding c!Tommy to hand them over. Maybe there’s a hind code on them to stop c!Dream? Maybe there’s a hidden code to summon someone to stop! Dream? Maybe there's something hidden on the disks, a hidden message to make c!Dream less powerful? I don’t know, these are just some suggestions on that!

But I think c!Dream targeted c!Tommy b/c c!Dream wanted to make c!Tommy the Hero of the Server. He targeted c!Tommy b/c c!Dream took up the role as the Villain and he needed a hero like I mentioned before. We all know that a Hero isn’t made by doing the “Right Thing” they’re made by something happening to them that makes them want to take down the Villain, and take up the “Hero Role.” But at the same time, we all know that a Hero and a Villain has to have some kind of traumatic backstory to help mold and shape their character.

This is where I think the whole Exile comes into play. c!Tommy and c!Wilbur Soot were exiled from their own home, L’amanburg. c!Wilbur turned to c!Tommy and ligitmently asks, “Are we the Good Guys or are we the Bad Guys, Tommy? Are we the Villains of this story? Then let's be the Villains of the story, Tommy!” But I think c!Tommy refused that idea (I’m not there yet so please forgive for any vague details). Not only that but c!Dream kept visiting c!Tommy during his exile. I think the reason why c!Dream visited c!Tommy was to make sure that c!Tommy didn’t die in exile.

But I also think that c!Dream planned on being in Prison. Basically, the whole “Closing the Chapter with Hero capturing the Villain” kind of idea. However, I don’t think c!Dream planned on c!Tommy going fully over to the Darkside. A couple of months ago, c!Tommy with Ghostbur planned for c!Tommy to sneak into the prison and kill c!Dream. I don’t think c!Dream even consider c!Tommy going that far! Hence, why when c!Tommy got caught, c!Dream held Ghostbur “hostage” by threatening to revive him! Knowing that c!Wilbur Soot would be the perfect way to bring c!Tommy back onto the path of being a Hero for the Server.

Okay that’s all I have for this theory! Sorry, it’s not as detailed as my others usually are but like I said, I’m still catching up with the Disk Saga and the L’amburg Lore. Let me know what you think! HAPPY CREATING!

Deca-Dence 5

“…cannon won’t ignite in time!” The subbers spell cannon as “canon” later as well.

Off to the cliffside, where Kaburagi goes to die…

Deca-Dence 6

“Maybe someone intervened.” – I think Minato did, somehow.

This Death Dive reminds me of Wipeout.

Moriarty 3

I once made up a quote that goes, “When life detests you, fight back.” I think it’s also roughly along the lines of advice Albert needs.

I remembered an odd line from Macbeth: “Brother, he has killed me!” Seriously, Moriarty is scarier than some actual horror anime, I swear…Update: It’s actually “he has killed me, Mother!”, but same impact.

I had my hands over my mouth from the moment the fire began. That’s how intense this is.

This ED…doesn’t sound like an ED. It sounds like the OP for a different anime, like Joker Game or something. Also, having Saito Soma as Gentaro and Moriarty…is a bit unsettling because they have a lot of overlap but one’s basically the evil twin of the other.

Yashahime 4

“…was raised here…”

“…we can…”

I felt a heart twinge when I saw Towa tear up…man, it’s been years since I last dealt with Inuyasha properly.

“…nights where I can’t fall asleep.” – So…you’ll play it a lot then, Setsuna.

Oh, so Kirara is a nekomata? I never knew until now.

Kikyo!

According to the mythology, the kirin rules over the middle…so why is Kirinmaru the monster in the east?

Is “s***” unwarranted here? I didn’t have the volume on, so I don’t know…Going back, I think Moroha said “kuso”, but it’s still kinda weird to have a swear word in a mostly family-friendly series in a slot near Detective Conan. (Then again, Detective Conan is where I learnt “kuso” from…so my standards are probably not as up-to-scratch as they should be.)

Rin! People keep saying Rin is the mother of the girls and it’s basically the only conclusion that could be done, considering the relationship the two had…but it’s still kind of squick…(Says a person who has no problem with SGRS s2’s ending.)

Update: Someone on ANN said the teacher’s name (Osamu Kirin) being similar to Kirinmaru is sketchy and I agree.

Maou-jou 4

There’s no pun for Rocket Turtle…that’s kinda startling, actually.

I’m not going to translate the eyecatches anymore. Seems they were actually translated in the manga and someone just copies them over or something.

I’ve seen some characters use wa when they really aren’t that feminine. However, the voice Suwabe uses for the Sorceror leads me to believe this guy really is trying to be feminine, even if in just a vocal capacity.

…aw, no puns here too.

Oh no, the seal…!

…hmm? The Scissors Sorceror’s info is…we’re not allowed to look at it. That’s what the red text says.

…my brain exploded for a second when I suddenly heard jazz music. It’s a Detective Conan parody! *screams*

Iina! doesn’t really mean “Lucky!” It means more like “cool!” or “It’s good, isn’t it?”

I7 s2 5

I missed these boys!

I like the Kinako transition. It’s cute.

I don’t really like it when Tenn looks at the screen…it gives me 1st person cam vibes.

Why is Tsunashi being called “this”, anyway?

Oh yeah…mensore = youkoso = welcome.

Uh oh…is Yuki actually evil???

Riku (earth) vs. Tenn (heaven). Hmm.

I still can’t believe they don’t believe Gaku is the soba guy. It’s so obvious!

Chikuzen-ni.

Someone on staff ships Gaku and Tsumugi together…hmm…

Oh! So this is DESTINY, huh? I’ve probably heard it on Spotify before, but I don’t recognise it by sheer sound like I do HypMic. (Then again, the half-year off the airwaves probably really hurt I7, man…)

Akudama 4

Say what you will about how bad Funi translations can get…they’re definitely entertaining!

Geesh, Doctor gets all the sexy shots, but Brawler gets all the ab shots. Can I get a sexy Courier shot…?

“…she’s right.” – There’s a lot of dialogue here, so…uh, who’s “she” in this case?

What’s a “bro fro”?

Wow, Brawler, talk about being punched into next Tuesday…(partially joking)

Swindler’s face, LOL. (I know she’s an ordinary gal, but calling her “Swindler” is shorter to type.)

I remember reading around and people agree Swindler works at the Seal Centre.

The shark and bunny’s shirts say things like “Kanto/Kansai”, “earth, air/water” and “pollution/clean” during their montage.

“feminist” – Uh, ex-squeeze me?! Feminism does not equal “ladies first” or “going easy on ladies”. Update: I went and listenend to it and although one of my ears is mysteriously almost constantly plugged these days, I’m fairly sure Doctor did not say “feminist” (in katakana). Update 2: Then I listened to it again and…I’m not sure anymore.

LOL, Hoodlum hit the in-series camera. With his face.

Oh, vault = garage or storage. Right, how did I not know that?

Cat, nooooooooooooooooo! Don’t die!

HypMic 5

After the two “darker” divisions, it seems almost strange to not have a “dark” introduction about the seedy underbelly of alt. future Japan…

Oh, my gosh. That’s Ichijiku on the phone.

The studio has the word “drops” on it.

Lemme guess: Neither hand!...Yup.

The only spoiler I know for this ep. is it’s a Halloween episode, and “Ramuda ruins Halloween”. That quote is way too subjective to mean anything, though…

…hmm, Gentaro doesn’t say “shousei” in that sentence involving “this humble bard” (not that I heard, but one of my ears is mysteriously plugged after I stayed up late browsing Twitter on my phone – don’t tell anyone that, though! They’re not meant to know!). Gentaro is not a humble bard (although that would translate “shousei” quite correctly in the Shakespearean), he’s an author.

LOL, that “ding!”

Gentaro actually says “ghostbusters” in katakana, LOL.

I almost thought this Shinjuku man was Doppo…but no, this Aoyama Cemetery exists. It has nice cherry blossoms.

The “dun dun dun” soundtrack is great. It really sets the atmosphere.

Gentaro really is an idiots’ minder, just as I used to characterise him. (Then the FP and M manga and developments regarding Ramuda being evil changed my mind.)

I-Is this just gonna be an episode of FP being scared and Ramuda yelling? It’s fun for a bit, but when you’re stopping to analyse every few seconds, Ramuda’s voice is gonna get annoying eventually…

Kurosu seems to be a cross between Jyushi and Doppo.

This ep…makes FP look money-crazy. Dice is only money-crazy when he’s broke…because of course you would be…but the others aren’t.

That rock track that plays when FP hand out flyers is cool!

Are they…eating squid?...Welp, squid jerky. I’d say I’m correct.

Oh, so they’re all street photographers? Not just Tom?

I was wondering…how would the “tie to a different division” occur in episode 5, considering episode 6 is where the plot really kicks in? Turns out…they tie back to BB, which is not a thing I was expecting at all.

BB have a BB tablet…makes sense, because I think Hypster have iPhone cases for each division.

Oh, they’re planting the seeds of Ramuda’s ability here, so to speak. By knowing what Hypnosis Mics are capable of doing, you can see the building blocks of Rap Abilities as well.

Okonbanwa! The extra O is meant to make things formal, but only in front of nouns (sometimes it’s “go”, e.g. goshujin), so it’s Ramuda being overly formal to be cutesy and unconventional.

*lightbulb goes off in head* It makes sense that the group affiliated with illusions and randomness does the Halloween episode, actually.

…Yargh! Of course all these onee-sans are FP stans!...*lightly touches temple, as if to get rid of a headache* I should’ve known.

The new song is “Shibuya Ghost Night” by Tokyo Health Club, Yuki “T-Groove” Takahashi and Yuma Hara.

*stops video before the darn airhorn sounds* Thank goodness…hey, isn’t this quote from Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka…?

This episode is very seasonal, but doesn’t really make sense outside of airing on Halloween. C’mon, couldn’t you have given us a Sasara appearance instead of having Ramuda yell down the house…? I knew the FP episode was going to be either lighthearted with a dark undercurrent, like the BB ep (considering we haven’t gotten to Ramuda dying yet), or full-on lighthearted, but…I somehow wonder if the staff had an empty spot labelled “Fling Posse episode” due to COVID and went, “Okay, it airs on Halloween this year, let’s make it Halloween-inspired”…or something. Also, I feel Gentaro got the short end of the stick here.

Update: As for yakuwarigo, Ramuda trends towards the feminine side, which is not something I noticed until my groupwork partner pointed it out to me. The message in this episode has a “yone”, which proves that point even further. “Dayo~n” is a variant of the gender-neutral “yo” ending. Meanwhile, I have game samples that prove Dice uses “ze” like BB/MTC, while Gentaro uses “yo” and desu/masu like Jakurai, so it was really Ramuda anyone wanted to pay attention to since his speech patterns are the most feminine-leaning, possibly due to his extensive hanging out with ladies. (I once read a Tofugu post on how non-binary people deal with language that said if you hang out with ladies a lot, you take on feminine yakuwarigo and if you hang out with guys a lot, you do the same in that direction, but I clearly remember Ramuda using “sa”, which is a slightly male-leaning ending.)

Taiso Samurai 4

There’s something in the background which stops me from listening to it and one of my ears is blocked, but I gotta find out what Tackey was saying about the NHK Cup (the joke, I mean). Update: So I think it’s ninja/nukihara/kekkou, but I may have heard that wrong due to my blocked ear…I should get someone to clean it out properly.

Here’s the YoI monologue about competitions again. <- (neutral on it) Also, NHK is in English letters/romaji in the term “NHK Cup”, but the “Cup” isn’t (it’s in kanji).

Sekigahara had a huge historical battle.

Huh? This episode’s called “Samurai Musume (daughter)”, so…where did “Battling Samurai” come from? That’s one of the previous episodes, right?

Selfies, before they were cool.

I was wondering if Leo actually calls Rei “Rachel” like he calls Jotaro “Joe”…and he does. I just haven’t paid much attention to the audio, that’s all.

The Battle of Chibi? Never heard of it until now, but the Battle of Red Cliffs is the same thing.

Leo Naruto runs…LOL.

If Rei was in 4th grade in 2002…are we going to see the characters in the present in the end? She would be 28 in 2020.

I guess I should’ve guessed from “hat trick”, but a Bergkamp trap is related to soccer.

There’s a random Japanese-sounding track in the background…didn’t expect that.

A cemetery…on the day after Halloween.

“Grandma’s place” = the bar…Ohhhhhhhhhh. I was wondering, didn’t the grandma and Rei live together? Then it all came together.

Jim Beeam (sic), LOL.

I wonder, are Tackey and Ayu dating like he asks?

Gotta love a man in a suit! *chef’s kiss*

Yashahime 5

Who’s this Tokotsu guy again…? Also, the “ja” in Jakotsumaru means “young”.

Oh, Myoga. It’s been a while.

Can there be 4 Perils when there’s only 3 of them…?

Well, it makes sense that a dog demon would have demon fleas…in a sense.

Why is “trying to swallow up this world and turn it into a degenerate age” (or whatever Kirinmaru’s aim is) so vague? You could say the present is already an age of mass degeneracy…

Maybe the Dream Butterfly took Moroha’s memories…?

Wait, why is Myoga only allowed to drink Moroha’s blood when she puts on the rouge?

So this is an arhat. Also, aren’t morals an Anglophone ideal imported into Japan and the rest of Asia? That’s what separates Towa from Setsuna.

Akudama 5

This drone definitely won’t come in handy at all…(sarcastic)

There’s an Evangelion feel to these “masks”…

That box is like Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs! It’s great!

I like how the kids jump to the potential fact (?) this is a Swindler trick.

You can see Courier’s bike in the background when the bunny says “…and I mean everything.”

*Knights of Sidonia music starts playing* Search! And! Destroy! *record scratch as music stops*

I think this little discussion between Courier and Swindler will go down in Akudama Drive history as one of my favourite moments because it’s the little conversations that count. Also…does Courier have a mechanical hand, or is that just me thinking weird things…? Is that a glove?

Ooh, scars. Sexy. (On the Executioner Master, at least.)…Now I get why the guy wears that mouth covering.

HypMic 6

Halfway through the season already…? Yikes, how time flies. By the way, my assignment’s come and gone so I don’t need to focus on it anymore.

Hmm? Why did the subbers put “Prime Minister” when Ichijiku merely says “yes”…?

Wait, 1st question: how does one sign up for a rap battle? I don’t think that’s ever been answered. 2nd question (well, not a question): Dice is paying attention to Otome now…

I’m fairly sure that red brick warehouse was just that…as in the Red Brick Warehouse in Yokohama, which was also featured in Bungou Stray Dogs. Update: Oh, it’s (partially) a shopping mall…? I didn’t know that until now.

See, I told you they’re (Tom, Iris and Rex) probably foreigners…

That one shot of Jakurai? *chef’s kiss* Beautiful. Give me a million of ‘em. (Okay, I’m kidding to some degree, but I can’t help staring at it. Jakurai’s just too pretty…)

“Tweet-like lyrics”? Eh? When was Twitter a collective pessimist?

Oh, that’s basically the scene from the drama track. Where the heck is Jakurai fishing though…? I always imagined it to be at a river or a pier, not some concrete complex. Update: According to a user on Twitter, the fishing place is called “Ichigaya Fishing Centre”. It is, as you would expect, found in Shinjuku. Apparently, even Osomatsu-san featured the place...which would explain why it looks vaguely familiar to me.

Wow, I can’t believe how upfront they’re being about Ramuda breaking up TDD.

Ramuda thought in his deep voice…I almost didn’t recognise it for a second. It doesn’t even sound like Shirai. It sounds more like…Hayami, in fact.

“F*** yeah!” - …and they’re still going with the F bomb. Keep being you, subbers, keep being you.

That shot of Saburo in a dimly-lit room almost looks like the SR card in ARB, except in that one he has his headphones on (and might be outside, to my memory).

Oh, so the round thing really is Ichiro’s ring. It’s got an “I” on it too, i.e. the Roman numeral for one.

*Ichiro explains what happened to TDD from his and Samatoki’s side* - I don’t think we’ve ever seen the story from Ichiro’s or Samatoki’s perspective enough to know either thought this (or this way).

“Jiro! Saburo! Let’s go!” - …and Tom’s just taking photos as they leave, LOL.

I didn’t expect the TsudaKen guy to be back again, really.

Well, if this Google route is to be believed, “Sadamezuka’s soul” only lasts about 30 minutes by car crossing from one point to the other, hence Jiro’s remark.

Googling “Toyotama” and “Toyotama Line” gets you…Ghost of Tsushima links…?

…hmm. I’m not listening to it on a hugely loud volume, so I can’t quite tell what the pun is, but I think the word for “monk” in this case is “bouzu”. Then what’s the word for “electric dynamo”…? Update: The pun, according to Takahisa Maeyama, is Erekiteruteru Bouzu.

That ticking thing was really effective in terms of the song…but sasuga HypMic. Things went ka-blammo again.

So we’re probably going to see BB’s first DRB round next ep…or Matenrou doing another takedown similar to ep. 3. Or both. Both is good. (Or it could be the FP/M side of things, much like we got the BB/MTC side of things here.)

...Uh, shouldn’t that be “dawn”? The anime’s generally been very good about this (aside from the obvious typo in the BB logo), but…welp, they’ve done it now.

Update: The LOVE you see Hifumi and Doppo near is this one.

Update 2: As for the yakuwarigo, it…turns out, to no one’s surprise, it stays oddly consistent across all media, although individual treatment of the characters can differ depending on the author.

HGPC 4

Ooh, is this Element of Light?

Fate/Stay PreCure! Here we come!

Moriarty 4

Why is the “to” capitalised? (Is that even capitalised?)

Quinine.

I kind of knew the grapefruit and the heart condition and/or quinine would be relevant somehow…and boy howdy, was I right! I just didn’t really know what it was going to do, that’s all.

I thought the ED didn’t match very well, but looking at the translated lyrics…now it kind of makes sense.

~Crochet Project Commissions OPEN~

Hey guys. Weird post right - since I’m a fanfic author and what not. But 2019 is the year I’m trying to make money off any skills I’m willing to monetize.

SO...

Have you seen patterns for hats you wish you could make, but you don’t know how? Maybe you want a custom bun beanie with a specific yarn, but you can’t crochet. Maybe you can knit, but you want something with a different/texture pattern.

Want a custom made baby blanket for your kid/niece/nephew/godchild?

Maybe a soft basket to hold toys/diapers in that matches the nursery?

Want some homemade Harry Potter scarves/shawls?

Want a custom blanket to match your dorm aesthetic?

How about an afghan? Textured fringe-tastic wall hanging?

Ya want some heckin’ fanfic quotes sew onto a sweater or sumthin’?

I can even make those chunky blankets (the knit ones, but shh that’s like the only knitting I’m good at so far, I’m learnin’).

The point here is that I’m good with yarn and if you want something made, I’m ya gal.

~*~*~*~*~*~*Base Price Info ~*~*~*~*~*~*

Most Projects Will Be Price Estimated @ Commission.

...until I have a better idea of how long projects take/yarn costs associated with different things. Only things I’ve made a bunch of will get pricing on this list for now. The complexity of the pattern wanted and other factors will impact pricing estimates.

~*~*~*~*~

Yarn type is up to the client (I’ll say what I prefer to use for what below, but I’ll also advise based on what textures/colors are wanted when a project is commissioned) and price will be adjusted depending on yarn costs.

Hats/Beanies: Babies’/Children's’ start at $10, Adults sizes start at $15

Scarves: Babies’/Children's’ start at $12, Adults sizes start at $15

Appliques/Motifs: Start at $5, depends on the item (ex. a small daisy motif that could be added to a beanie/scarf or sewn onto a headband)

Big Hand Knit or Hand Crocheted Blankets: I’m gonna be upfront about these. I love them. I love how they look. I think they’re gorgeous. But guys, the material costs to get the really high quality, professional grade roving or stuffed-tube yarn that people usually make these out of starts at like...$150 before shipping/taxes. (I’ve heard of people getting roving for less bc they buy in bulk from a nearby wool mill. I don’t have one of those and I can’t just go around dropping $400 on a bulk order of roving unless I know I’m gonna make that back, ya feel?) And that’s just the supplies. That’s not including putting it together or shipping you 8/9/10/15 lbs blanket. I will gladly make them, but there’s a reason these things are like $300 on Etsy. Shipping costs, plus however much is needed to make a profit that makes it worth the effort put in...it can add up. But they are available from me if you’d like one.

I’ve done a lot of side projects for myself over the years, and made things for friends/family/professors, but I didn’t really pay attention to time vs cost of materials, so I don’t want to guess on the pricing for basic blankets and such. I’ll update this post in the future if this kicks off and I end up with that information.

Speaking of kicking off - if things go well, I will open an Etsy store (and share that link) but I wanna get some projects done so I can take example photos, etc. Which prevents me from having a ton of upfront costs and stock later. I can just mark things as made to order and keep stitching.

I will toss a few pictures of projects up on this post on mobile in a minute, so y’all can see the things I’ve made recently and a few of my WIPS.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Message me/drop me an ask if you’d like to talk about commissioning something. My preferred payment method is Paypal, but we can try to work something out if that’s not gonna work for some reason.

#Crochet Commissions Open #Kitten Crochets #I'm just a cat with a bunch of yarn balls okay #I need to use some of this shit up #and I wouldn't mind an excuse to go buy more yarn
