The tragic and glitched death of c!Dream’s parrot started his villain arc.

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.”

Charlie Slimecicle is a gift from god holy SHIT his monologue??? y'all i am so, so, so hopeful for c!Quackity now that he's gotten it kicked into his head that his empathy is his most persistent, most inevitable, and most crucial quality. Quackity watching Slime evolve on the harshest lessons of life, taught by both Purpled and him...then having that product of their cynical natures kill them both? having Slime say outright to his face that 'the same human ruined our lives' before making him fall from his creations? Quackity watched as the rules he built to protect himself ended up getting him killed, and then learned his lesson! he says he's making his last chance count bc it's the last legacy he'll get to leave behind. he knows he can't bottle his emotions bc he'll get attached regardless, so now he might actually communicate about issues and meaningfully resolve the tensions he has between Dream, Purpled, and - oh yeah - Karl and Sapnap.

If I think about c!Tubbo too much I simply explode.
I think about I am indestructible and I think about if you execute Ranboo Big Q, that will be treason and I think about you know I still have dreams, right? and I think about I’m currently going through the five stages of grief so please be mindful and I think about y’know, all good things must come to an end eventually and I think about Wilbur always hurts innocent things and it’s not fair. The horse did nothing wrong and I think about I don’t know if it’s just me that remembers and I think about how am I meant to protect everyone! and I explode.
I simply explode.

C-PTSD Question of the Day
When you were younger, your most childish child self, what was the COOLEST thing in the world? Follow up question, within the resources you have right now, whats a cool way you can participate and engage that super cool thing in your present adult life?
Like Dinosaurs? Grab a book, relearn all the names and find someone to dump it on. Find all the documentaries, look into museums and archeological stuff. Space? Museums, literature, microscopes, documentaries, hell star gazing. Racing? Hotwheels? Monster Trucks? Look up the closest nearest event and check it out, maybe learn about cars.
Engage in the fun things your child self would have been amazed and jealous to see you be able to do
Do something your child self would gasp and idolize, even if its stupid. Become the person your child self would have wanted to follow around and talk to constantly, find the stupidest most childish thing to be engaged in and just have fun with it
Feel free to actually reblog and share. I'd love to hear what yall thought were uber cool and any ideas to unapologetically engage and enjoy those uber cool childhood interests.

sometimes, when it comes to past trauma, what hurts the most is that the past is gone. you may less feel like the past is following you into the present, and more like you belong in the past - like you're stuck there, or the world is leaving you behind. as if you're an anachronism in your own life. as if you don't truly exist, and your life ended when the past trauma ended. you feel like a ghost.
people think you "just won't let go of the past," but the past has become you. so they don't understand. but i do. you're not alone. and i hope, someday, we can be present. and safe. and happy.

Here me out Techno is a pig hybrid yeah? And piglets are really itty bitty right?
So here’s my pitch Techno was a tiny ass little kid that was an all around little shit just completely full of mischief!
And another thing because I have got to include rivals because I literally will pass away if I don’t, Dream makes it his mission to watch over this tiny little kid even though if Techno wanted to he can go chihuahua mode at any time, however Techno just kinda humors Dream and tags along because he’s funny.
Tumblr media
He can fit under Dreams cape and just act like one of those kids you see in a store hiding in the clothing rack
Tumblr media
But like Dream is always on edge and nervous, always trying to deep into the shadows trying to go unnoticed, it never works on Techno though he sniffs him out like a hound and just poof! Back into the cape!
Just idk I wanted baby rivals so yeah ^^

Fun fact: I actually rewrite and change whole scenes a lot. And last week when I lost hot water during the winter storm, in my longing to take a shower, I actually came across this old alternate version of a scene in Dreamcatcher… so as I sit here now, about to take a shower but ironically dragging my feet and dreading the work involved, I figured I’d share this fun little snip bit/blooper.
CONTEXT: Punz tending to Dream after he returns from Las Nevadas, injured and covered in slime.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Implied/Referenced Torture, Injuries, Profanity.
Punz rests Dream to sit on the bed before turning his back to grab medical tools. Thinking threw his next steps he voices clinically calm, “Dream, you should probably go wash off before we do anything about your injuries. Don’t want whatever that fucking slime is to like—fester in the wounds.”
He whips back around expecting an answer, but to his befuddlement Dream doesn’t reply, he just sits there looking at the floor. His eyes unfocused and clouded over, as if he isn’t seeing anything at all.
“Dream? Dude, you with me?”
“Oh right. Umm… I—I… Does that really seem necessary? I mean—it’s really just some scratches you know. Not really a big deal…” Dream mutters out almost desperately, not lifting his head.
Completely caught off guard, Punz sounds back stunned and confused with hints of worry, “What? What the fuck did you just say? Dream, surely you can’t be stupid enough to say that? Dude, we don’t have any idea what the hell this shit is. It could be dangerous. And letting it into your open wounds is not something I want to fucking experiment with.”
Punz, assuming he has convinced the man, turns back around and continues to organize and scrimmage for what he needs, not noticing that Dream has neither responded nor moved an inch. It’s not untill he goes for the enderchest that he catches a glimpse of Dream in the corner of his eye. He’s startled a bit at the sight of Dream completely still not fulfilling his request. Punz immediately stops noisily clamoring around with the supplies and spins around.
“Dream? Don’t be fucking stubborn with me. I’m really not in the mood, I’m already pissed that I couldn’t be there. Please just let me help.”
Dream doesn’t stir.
He just sits there facing the floor, shaking almost imperceptibly. His breath coming out in an uneven worrying manner. It’s at this point Punz finally realizes he might of fucked up.
“Dream?… buddy? You with me? You ok?… I’m here dude.”
The caring tone seems to break whatever trance Dream was in as he surprisingly admits, hushed and almost inaudible, “I—I can’t, Punz. I just can’t. You are right… but I—I can’t do it. I’m—I’m so—“
Not wanting to hear another fucking apology leave his lips, Punz cuts him off and asks softly, “What—why can’t you do it, Dream?”
Then noticing Dream’s breathing getting hitched at the question he adds, “Is it… Dream, is it like something—something Quackity did?”
Dream wavers then slowly nods still not looking up.
Right. That makes sense. Fuck. He’s an idiot. Of coarse Dream would have a hard time being under water. That’s a given. Hell, he even avoided showers for a week or two after he drowned to death in one of their tests. Oh god. How could he be so fucking stupid?
The revelation and implication crack into his rib cage and crush his heart a little bit. He didn’t know he could feel more guilty and outraged by the whole thing. But damn Dream can’t even take a shower for fucks sake. Not that he can blame the man in the slightest.
“Fuck… Right. Ok. That’s fine. We can just like clean up the best we can without it.” Punz responds encouragingly.
(for the rest of the scene and the version I actually went with check out Dreamcatcher)

they killed him. they killed him on the obsidian floor soaked in his blood.
they killed him in the cell where he fought for so damn long and so damn hard to stay alive.
they killed him in the corner where he used to cower and beg for his life. they killed him in the place where he used to lie on the obsidian, breathless and hazy with pain and hunger, and think, I’m still alive, Sam won’t let me die.
they killed him, and perhaps Dream thought: At least I am dying on my feet.

You ever think about how c!Sam was part of the og members of the SMP, about how c!Dream and c!Sam were legitimately friends for a really long while, about how c!Dream trusted him with his life, about how c!Sam knows the reason he was put in charge of c!Dream's prison is because c!Dream trusted him

c!dream /gen scared me sometimes and that's honestly just proof to how impressive of an actor Dream is and makes me like the character more
I like him! as an evil villain!
normalize liking characters while strongly disagreeing with their actions without the need to justify it
yes I am able to perceive c!dream as a deep and traumatized and complicated character but on the other hand consider this. Evil unhinged mastermind villain c!dream is FUN
and I geniuely believed cc!dream had just as much fun playing his character like this
