"hey guys!" said Karl, arriving at the fire camp.
The others greeted him and started talking.
This small group consisted of: jack, tommy, tubbo, ranboo, Phil, Karl, foolish, tina, and Niki.
"I'm bored, wanna tell some horror stories?" Tommy spoke to the group.
"you sure you won't run like a little girl afterwards Tom?" said jack in a joking tone.
"shut up jack manifold" said tommy
"I think it's a cool idea" said Niki
"I second that" said tubbo
And so on until everyone agreed.
"so, who wants to start?" said tommy looking at everyone in the group.
"I have a good one, it's actually a true story" said ranboo.
"go ahead" said Niki.
And so ranboo started the story
"so, this story took place back in 1980" started ranboo.
~24/ 05/ 1980~
There was this boy walking in a big building, his school, he walked and everyone would stop for a second and stare at him.
There was this girl, the most beautiful in the world
He just walked by everyone going to his locker, he arrived and started putting his things away when, they, arrived.
She had all the boys in town wrapped 'round her finger, oh
"hey l/n, how are you? Having some problem putting away your stuff?" said dream aka clay, the school bully and one of the popular kids, as soon as he said the last words in his sentence he threw some of y/n's books to the ground.
She would walk the halls and everyone would whisper and talk
He heard everyone laughing and murmuring quietly, as dreams friends stood behind him, George, Sapnap, Wilbur, Quackity and Sam.
'Cause all the girls in town wanted to be her
He just started at the group, picked up his books and walked away, but the group kept on following him and bothering him until the bell rang.
But behind those emerald eyes
After school y/n headed home, but when he got there, he opened his door and a bunch of water mixed with paint fell in him, he turned around and met dream and his gang across the streat laughing at him. He just entered his house without saying anything.
She's a devil in disguise
He got to his room and looked at himself in the bathroom as he took a old blade he use to shave with and plunge it into the wall with anger while keeping a straight face.
The prom queen has blood on her hands
He went to the house infront of his, that was puffys house, the only good friend of dreams and asked her for their numbers, she gladly gave them to him, under the lie that he just wanted to talk through some things with them.
Every boy and girl she dates disappears without a trace
Soon he called them and told them to meet him at the mall exactly at 10:30, without telling them it was him, they were stupid enough to actually go though.
So be careful when she asks you to dance
He soon saw them arrive and he smiled as he pulled out his portable knife and hid behind the many stores of the place, the group looked around for the person who called them here as he looked at the people passing by who probably just for out of the theaters, as soon as everyone was gone they looked around a bit more just when they decided it was time to go home y/n jumped out and stabbed quackity in the arm, Quackity screamed and pulled the knife out as he bumped into his friends they all got him to his feet and ran.
She's a motherfucking killer queen, a psychopath at 17
Y/n followed them as they ran through every corridor of the mall with a pretty steady pace, everything was closed so they had no choice but stay inside and there wasn't anyone else since the janitors had all gone home as well.
A beauty in a blood-stained dress
They took quackity to a bathroom and tried to patch up his wound but he was clearly still losing blood, so Wilbur took his jacket and ripped the sleve off and used it as a type of bandage, "that should work for now" said Wilbur "thanks" said quackity a bit out of breath.
She'll fill your heart with kerosene
They all walked out and started looking for a way out, Sapnap with Dream, George with Wilbur, and Quackity with Sam.
And light you up 'til you can't breathe
Sam and Quackity were looking everywhere, soon they ended up in the food court and managed to enter the kitchen of a sushi place. They started looking around not expecting anything when they heard some metallic tapping and footsteps, y/n.
If you cross her path you just might end up dead
He was looking around every stall kicking the doors open and seeing if there was anyone there, they hid inside one of the cabinets and covered their mouths, praying he would not hear them. They heard some more footsteps and suddenly silence. When suddenly quackity jolted a bit when he heard the sound of a door being slammed open to the kitchen they were in, Sam held quackity by the shoulders and put his finger in front of his mouth as in saying 'quiet!'.
There was this girl who was broken by the world
Quackity calmed down his breathing and relaxed but heard nothing, they tried to listen to any sound but heard nothing when suddenly a hand smashed through the wood of the cabinet and grabbed Sam by the colar of his shirt he was pulled out and Quackity screamed he crawled out and got to his feet and saw y/n stabbing Sam multiple times, he started running once y/n dropped the body of his friend and turned to look at him, he ran and ran through all the stores till he got to the end, there was a door he tried to open it but it was closed he got over the counter and tried to push the gate blocking the exit to the hallway, he tried kicking it and the door multiple times as he heard the footsteps getting louder and louder till he got pushed to the floor for a second and tried to run away but then he was pushed onto a counter of sorts, he realized where he got pushed over , it was a automatic bread cutter that was still working and turned on by y/n he pushed him down and dragged him closer to the blades as quackity screamed and kicked at him. His body fell limp as his head was put through the blades and cut into fractions blood and brains spilling everywhere as y/n's face was now tainted red and he walked out the stores through the door Sam and Quackity had first found, leaving Sam's and Quackity's.
'Cause every day at school they'd push and shove her, oh
They were looking through the center of the mall, near the water fall and close to the cinema, they were talking and looking through possible exits.
But she had a plan, one day she would get her revenge
They have already given up, they found nothing, this place was more secured than a government facility.
And those cheerleaders and jocks would be six feet under
They were talking when they got distracted by a loud noise, it sounded like screaming, they ran to the noise but stopped midway when they saw yn walking out, knife in hand and a bloody face, they ran back to their original place and held their arm on the other to make sure he was till there.
But behind those angel eyes, lies a devil in surprise
The footsteps didn't stop in fact they just got faster and faster almost behind them, soon sapnap felt a sharp pain in his back and he had to stop, dream also stopped and cheked what had happened he was sapnap screaming as a knife was plunged in his back y/n was running full sprint at them so dream had to pick up his friend and carry him through the place he had to stop infront of the waterfall as he got to tired and sapnap was clearly losing blood.
The prom queen has killed for her crown
But it was to late y/n arrived and pulled dream away from sapnap, he took the blade in his back and pushed it in his chest right in his heart, dream screamed in pain while watching his best friend cough up blood and slowly die.
Every boy and girl she seeks never comes back in one piece
He tried to get up but couldn't as his gaze was stuck on sapnap as all life left his eyes, he felt tears run down his eyes but was suddenly pulled away from his trance and met face to face with the killer.
So be careful when she tries to ask you out
Dream got out of his grip and ran to sapnap, checking his pulse and trying everything to keep him alive, then he felt a sharp pain followed by more but he didn't stop it and just closed his eyes as he slowly fainted when the slashes stopped and feel on top of his friends chest
She's a motherfucking killer queen, a psychopath at 17
Wilbur and George were so close, they had found an exit but it was old so they needed a bit of strength to get it open they slammed themselves against the door multiple times.
A beauty in a blood-stained dress
They had heard their friends screams, this time it was dreams, they knew what was happening, they were in the same level as quackity and Sam, they heard everything but if they had to be selfish in order to save their lives, then god dammit were they gonna be the most selfish people in the world.
She'll fill your heart with kerosene
They soon got the door open smiled at themselves, they ran and ran through the old passages.
And light you up 'til you can't breathe
They ran faster than the flash, they could see a door at the end of the hallway leading to the outside, they could see the lights of the city as it was now 1am.
If you break her heart you just might lose your head
But then, they turned a hallway and saw the most horrifying thing ever.
She's dancing by herself
It wsd y/n, clothes and face bathed in blood as he helped up a bloody knife running it through the wall leaving a long scratch as he slowly walked at them.
She's crowned the queen of hell
Wilbur just grabbed george as he ran towards the exit, y/n's footsteps following.
Tears will sink into her skin
They grabbed the others hand and ran at full speed towards the exit, they were so close, so close.
She's gonna get revenge
Wilbur felt a sharp pain in his leg but continued running adrenaline pumping through his veins as he led George and himself through the hallway
You're all gonna know her name
He made it, they made it, they slowed down once they were outside and looked at eachother and smiled. They hugged eachother but it was short lived as the knife in wilburs leg got pushed down he screamed in pain as george noticed y/n behind him, he nelt down and pulled the knife out, George knelt down to Wilbur and helped him to his feet as they both stared at y/n
"I'll forgive you, simply cause you weren't as mean to me, but just know, I'll always be here, in your nightmares and dreams, my grip on you will never be broken until you die" said y/n as he slowly walked away into the shadow of the mall
She's the one and only, killer queen.
Wilbur and george got to the nearest phone and called the police. It wasn't long after they heard the sirens.
She's a motherfucking killer queen, she sold her soul at 17
Wilbur was given health care and bandages as george stayed by him the whole time, smiling and telling him how brave he was the whole time, this situation if tou can call it that, had pushed their friendship to a whole new level.
A beautiful and broken mess
Soon some nurses came out with Dream with a air mask on as the nurses covered his cuts, they screamed at every doctor around, apparently, dream had survived, he had a very faint heartbeat but it was there.
She'll fill your heart with kerosene
Then the others followed but they were covered in bodie bags, their faces still put in the open, George looked away as he couldn't bear such a horrifying sight while Wilbur just stared in shock at his friends bodies, god who could be this evil?
And light you up 'til you can't breathe
Soon a lot of people and news reporters showed up. They were interrogating everyone, especially Wilbur and george.
If you break her heart you just might meet your end.
Wilbur and george moved on, they moved to a different town and school, and made new friends, but one thing was for certain, they will always be living in fear, as y/n was right, he kept on appearing in their dreams and nightmares, they couldn't get him out of their brain. But they had to learn to suck it up. Important thing is they survived.
~BACK TO THE PRESENT~
"Jesus man, you need to stop watching so many horror stories" said tommy staring at ranboo as he finished his story.
"sorry Tommy" said ranboo as another person started talking. Probably telling another story.
But he just stood up and said he was going to bed early.
But secretly he went to the woods and opened a book the words
"Killer of 1980" on the top and a bunch of pictures of him all around the page, he turned to the next one and he saw his favorite photo there, it was the killer with a child, his child, aka him.
He closed the book and smiled at the fond memories of his dad.
He was adopted so he wasn't his actual son but still they were pretty close as he was the one who raised him.
He went back to the tent and put on his favorite playlist as he went to sleep
Playing:
POV: your the famous
"Killer of the 1980's" y/n l/n.

I want to hear abt what superpowers everyone has so bad I loove superhero aus
YIPPEE I LOVE SUPERHEROES SO MUCH
Info abt everyone's powers under the cut hehehe I am having so much fun
SO FIRST UP DREAM TEAM!! WAHOO
Tumblr media
Dream is a psychic with the ability to travel into someone's mind, essentially creating a pocket dimension. This lets him read their thoughts, see their memories, and teleport anywhere in their field of vision. This also translates to him being empathetic. He mostly uses his powers to keep himself mobile, and is actually pretty hesitant to dig around in someone's head after an incident with Tommy a few years ago that left a bad taste in everyone's mouth.
Tumblr media
Sapnap has physical powers that let him heat his body up at will and manipulate fire. As long as he's in an oxygen rich environment, he can set the air around him on fire. He can't cool his body down, however, and he can't put fires out- just move them around. He's pretty hotheaded (ha) and tends to rush into things guns blazing (extra ha).
Tumblr media
George is another psychic who can put people to sleep, manipulate their dreams (to an extent, he can control the mood of them), and make those dreams a reality. So if someone's dreaming about the stay puff marshmallow man, he can make the stay puff marshmallow man terrorize the city block or if they're dreaming about a gun, he can use that gun and so on. Anything construct he creates does disappear when the person wakes up. Almost everyone gets him and Dream's powers confused with each other, to both of their annoyance (Sapnap does it on purpose).
NEXT TEAM WHOO!
Tumblr media
Punz is a psychic with the ability to conjure any object he's seen before, so he usually uses it to make weapons and he's big into knifes. I don't have much more to say about his powers so a little backstory, he split off from Dream when they were all 18-19 years old after Punz's entire hometown was wiped off the map, killing his family. (This is a superhero au so everyone gets tragic superhero backstories god damn it)
Tumblr media
Foolish is basically a waterbender on steroids, he can control any liquid and also 'sense' it. He can feel the water in sewers or in people, which does let him do some recon, with varying degrees of success, of course. The more viscous a liquid is, the harder it is for him to control and he can't change it's temperature, so if it's ice he's out of luck. And though he can feel the water in humans, he can't move someone around like a meat puppet. If they're bleeding he can use that blood, though. Along with this he can also breathe underwater.
Tumblr media
Tina!!! Along with being a cat (having faster reflexes, better balance, and retractable claws) she can make anything she draws 3D. She's not psychic though, since she is manipulating the physical world. She uses mostly chalk and spray paint because those are the easiest to use on the go, and anything she creates retains the look of the materials used to create it. It also stays the size she painted it. Her art isn't alive, however, so she can't create a doodle bob (much to the chagrin of Foolish).
AND THATS EVERYONE I HAVE SO FAR!! I have plans for Tommy, Wilbur, and Tubbo who are all part of a team/agency that Wilbur founded. There were more people but a lot left after the incident that happened between them and Dream. (Unfortunately I am a C!dream stan through and through even in AUs so lmanberg gang was mostly in the wrong during that 😔✊) The syndicate is another hero team but they operate in another city so we won't see them much. Though rivals are still very much close friends who I have Plans™️ for
OH ALSO I need to draw them but Karl and Quackity are both psychics who work under the same agency as dteam with different teams as needed. Karl can move himself forward and backwards in time by a few seconds to a minute (he can push it more but the further he gets from the present the harder it is to get back. At one point he did get lost in the past until Dream was able to rescue him, which resulted in Karl forgetting a lot of really important things in his personal life). Quackity can control his own luck, so things tend to just sort of go right for him. It's not infallible, of course, but the really bad shit tends to happen to everyone else (operative word there being tends).

In blissful ignorance of Q's lore stream, I present thee a line said as a joke but fitting Dream if he got out the prison before Quackity got in the prison
,,I remember when I once stood here as a man. But now? Now I'm a God!"
you’re so free from the burden of knowing c!quackity is going completely off the deep end,,, you’re so lucky,,,, /lh,,, this works perfectly for an idea i meant to write a long long time ago + got sidetracked on, so tysm for reminding me about it !! cut for length !!
warnings: unhealthy coping mechanisms, mental illness, violence.
Letting Dream out of prison has been their worst idea yet.
None of them had been happy about it to begin with, but after the Egg had started attacking, they’d needed as many people on their side fighting with them as they possibly could. So, whisking Dream out of prison and leaving him to find his footing in the outside world again, they’d started to prepare to fight who Tommy had dubbed the Evil Egg Gang (EGG for short, which, in everyone else’s eyes, had been a pointless nickname, but Tommy liked it, so they let him use it).
The Egg is gone, now. The peace of the server has been tenuously restored. Dream seems to be doing everything he can to break it.
Tommy sprints towards the Community House, lungs burning, eyes aching. The sun is only just rising over the hills of the SMP - it’s too fucking early for trouble, in his opinion, far too fucking early, but after receiving frantic message after frantic message from about a dozen people on his communicator, he’d reluctantly staggered out of bed to be here.
Trouble doesn’t care who it wakes, after all, and trouble has always been personified in the form of a smiling, cracked mask.
Dream is ranting when he gets there - as per usual, Tommy thinks grouchily - an air of unhinged madness surrounding his pacing up and down. The Community House is in shambles, again, the people around Dream are armed and ready to fight, again, Tommy feels the usual fear of Dream creeping up his throat, again, and God, they really are just playing an old disk on repeat, aren’t they?
He thinks of Cat and Mellohi, safe in his Enderchest, and a tug of satisfaction leaves him momentarily fearless. They’ll never go back to the Disk Wars. They’re over. And he’ll never be at Dream’s mercy again.
“...Bombs,” Dream is saying, swinging round to face them all, “I’ve planted them, all around the SMP, deep enough underground that by the time you get there, it’ll be too late. And this?” He laughs, wild, pulling out a button and sticking it on a shard of the Community House still standing. Tommy’s heart sinks. There’s Wilbur written into Dream’s every move. “This is the button that will trigger the explosions.”
There’s a frenzy of murmurs drifting around the early morning dawn, horrified and furious. They outnumber Dream, thirty to one. But if Dream sets off that button...
Tommy finds himself stepping forwards, sword in hand. Dream jerks back on instinct, raising his axe in warning. “Dream,” Tommy says lowly, “don’t do this. We are so close to peace, man. We’re not fucking about to let you go back to your old ways.”
“Old ways?” Dream scoffs. “Tommy, I sided with you because I had to, because I needed the Egg gone to reclaim my power over the server. Now it’s gone? My... My path is clear. I can take control of everyone again.”
“We’re not going to let you do that,” Sapnap snaps, fire crackling in his words, “I told you I’d kill you if you pushed too far, Dream. Don’t make me follow through on that. Please.”
Dream ignores him, turning to face the button, resting his hand next to it with a giggle that comes from nowhere. He sounds hysterical - he sounds scared, Tommy realises slowly, and he doesn’t like how it sounds in Dream’s voice. “I remember when I stood here once as a man,” he murmurs, tracing the button with one finger, “that was the first time I blew it up. But now? Now I’m a god. It’s- Think of this as divine punishment from me. That’s all this is.”
“We’re not going to let you blow everything up again!” Tommy explodes, but he knows how to pull Dream’s attention away now, knows how to win this. With a nervous breath, he steps forwards, ignoring all of his instincts begging him not to. “Look, look, we both know what you really want.”
“What do I really want?” 
“A story.” A disk appears from his inventory: another Cat, a fake one, one he carries on him at all times just in case he needs to. Dream goes very, very still. “You need a story, Dream. So what if I write another fucking chapter for you? What if we-”
“You wouldn’t,” Dream replies, an odd quality to his voice, “I don’t think-”
“No, no, Dream, I would!” Putting the disk away again, Tommy glares up at the other, hands behind his back, texting Sam as quickly and as indiscreetly as he dares to.
You whisper to Sam: get ready
“I would, Dream, because at the end of the day, I care about my friends, and I don’t want them to lose everything- fucking everything, man, you’re about to destroy everything they own! Everything they’ve ever cared for! Of course I’d fucking trade the disk, haven’t I done it before?”
Dream steps forwards. There’s something resigned about his move. 
“Then give me the disk,” he says, tight, “and I won’t blow everything up.”
Tommy lets out a shaky breath, pulling the disk out again and offering it over to Dream. Before he takes it, Dream shoots him a look that has his blood running cold - a look that says I know exactly what you’re doing, a look that says you’re not as clever as you think you are.
But he takes it. The moment he does, Tommy shouts “now!” and chaos erupts.
Sam and Sapnap both slam into Dream, leaving the man stumbling to the ground instantly, trapped on his back by both men pinning him there with their swords - he’s much weaker than he used to be because of the prison, and with the way Dream’s head connects with the ground, the way he almost instantly goes limp, Tommy knows he’s been knocked unconscious. It doesn’t stop others coming up to restrain him, while Puffy pulls the button from the Community House and stores it safely in her inventory. Tommy pulls the disk back, backs away with Tubbo to a safer point, and watches.
Watches the others come to the decision to throw Dream back in prison. Watches them drag him away without a fuss back to the place he’d been so desperate to leave. Watches them go, and that’s when Tommy realises that Dream’s armour is iron and badly damaged, not just from this confrontation. So are his weapons: his axe is diamond, and, from the looks of it, about to shatter at any point. 
This hadn’t been an attempt to destroy the SMP, Tommy thinks, something horrified dawning in his chest, this had been self destruction, and they’d all bought right into it. 
Even that night, Tommy lies awake thinking about it, unable to take his mind away from the stubborn resignation in Dream’s steps and the bemused confirmation from Tubbo that there had been no explosives under the SMP. 
You whisper to Dream: why?
It takes a moment before he gets a message back.
Dream whispers to you: it’s easier in here
And Tommy stares up at the dark ceiling of his room, and wonders when Dream had become so small.

Dsmp Analysis: Lore 1/29 Saving Michael
Analysis and notes for the Dream smp lore streams from Tubbo, Technoblade, and Eret from January 28th and 29th.
We were all very excited when the Tubbo and Technoblade team up for Michael was teased, and we ended up getting Eret to join their team and the Streams did not disappoint. 
These stream or overall stream story together, was so wonderful and important. We got an unlikely gang of allies banding together for a common Goal of saving Michael and bringing an end to Sam’s destruction. Not only did we have a fun journey and stream in that goal, but we got so many heartfelt and important moments for the story moving forward.
Just slight heads up, some slight TW for some of the stuff I’ll say about Tubbo, warnings are in bold.
 Get ready for a long one, cause I have a lot of character analysis.
To start off we’ll go over Eret’s stream from the 28th.
- c!Eret started by telling us once more about how they saved Michael. Sapnap and George were going to kill Michael, and so Eret came and moved him to a safe location. 
- Eret then tells us they only other person they entrusted with Michael's location was Sam. We know that later Sam came and stole Michael from that safe place, to hold as a hostage against Ranboo, and then killed Ranboo after Dream didn’t return to the prison.
- Eret visits where Michael was supposed to be, and confirms that Sam did indeed kidnap Michael. Leaving a note telling Eret that he was moving him somewhere else, and that it was for “the greater good.”
- Eret expresses their anger, and feeling betrayed by Sam, and vows that She will kill Sam for what he’s done. That Sam has been making far to many mistakes, and needs to pay for both Ranboo and Michael.
- Eret spends the rest of the stream preparing and gearing up making the ultimate Kill Sam weapons.
- Other notes: 
         - Eret talks a lot about how they really hope this is their chance to redeem themselves. (I also really hope this is cc!Eret’s opportunity to do the lore and ‘Zuko’ arc they wanted to do.) 
It is really important to remember c!Eret’s history. Back in the early L’manburg Eret betrayed their L’manburgians, trapping them in the Final Control room, where they met their end. Eret did this though because they wanted the war to end, they thought they thought what they were doing was for the greater good. They did not know L’manburg would be blown up, or that everyone would loose their lives, Eret was not told this. In Eret’s mind the deal with Dream was that they gathered L’manburg somewhere where they’d have no choice to surrender, the war would end, things would become better, and an Eret would happen to get the smp crown as well as knowing their friends may feel betrayed. Sadly in reality it becoming much worse. Because to Dream the deal was, “I give you crown, you bring me L’manburg so I kill them” 
So everyone left of L’manburg at the time lost their first lives, and felt hated and betrayal for Eret. (It’s also sorta something to take notice of that if Eret didn’t do this, Tommy wouldn’t have done to duel and lost his second life right away, he wouldn’t have given up the disks for their independence. It was because of Erets initial betrayal that Wilbur didn’t trust anyone when he was spiraling in Pogtopia. It’s all chain events, and Eret’s betray was one of the causes.) So ever since then Eret has just been trying to make it up to everyone they failed and hurt. Trying to gain that trust back. In Pogtopia vs Manburg Eret gave up the crown to help. Eret’s redemption/forgiveness arc may be slow, but I think that makes it more real, and it’s an amazing story watching Eret try to do what they can to gain back their friend’s trust. 
       - c!Eret also mentions several times that “this must be how it feels to be betrayed.” They’re not really the same levels of betrayal as what Eret did, but betrayal non the less. We don’t invalidate that.
____________________________________________________________
Ok now on to the main event, the Streams from all three creators January 29th.
- The beginning of Eret and Technoblade’s streams are them preparing, gathering materials. I think it’s important to recognize Techno’s willing to work with others, with Tubbo, for Ranboo and for his son. Ranboo trusted him with the map of Micheal, his last words, and Techno is going to carry out his dying wish. Technoblade showed a lot of growth I’d call it, in this stream. Technoblade makes his way to Snowchester, while Eret prepares themself for when they need to talk to Tubbo and Techno about the situation.
(Loved the Spiderman Far from home refrence Techno made in his stream XD. And Techno also recounted that he has actually met Michael before, when he found him in his hiding spot in the nether, and Techno protected him from a Ghast attack)
- Meanwhile Tubbo’s stream opens with him just asking what went wrong. Tubbo says he is a mess, his vaults have been robbed, he has no materials, and he’s lost both Ranboo and Michael. 
 Tubbo’s skin is one of the first things I want to comment about. Now it’s not too different from his usual Snowchester skin, but it has added white flowers now. A lot of people are interpreting these flowers as white carnations. which symbolize mourning, young death, love, purity, and loyalty. I am absolutely all for this bandwagon
- - - - - - - - - - - - - 
 Next a bit onTubbo’s character. Just like everyone one else, has been through so much. Tubbo was also manipulated by Dream, and being president was quite hard and potentially traumatic on him. Tubbo just never seems to catch a break, from early L’maburg, Pogtopia, Presidency, loosing Tommy to exile, thinking Tommy was dead, finding Tommy was alive but against him, their fight at the ruined community house, Doomsday loosing his nation again, the disc finale where he was prepared to die to make it up to Tommy, the nukes(which we’ll get back to), Tommy actually dying to Dream, and then now Ranboo having been killed as well as Michael being kidnapped. 
It’s really sad, but ever since right before Exile, Tommy and Tubbo’s relationship hasn’t been the same. They still haven't communicated, and Tubbo doesn’t communicate to anyone. In Tubbo’s hard time, he was able to turn to Ranboo though, and then they adopted a son together. Through this Tubbo had so much, but things were still holding him back, he didn’t feel completely happy, and he felt no purpose. 
TW for death now. If you are unaware, the Nuke plot for Tubbo’s character was originally introduced as a potential end for his character. cc!Tubbo didn’t know what was next for c!Tubbo, so started setting up a potential “bittersweet ending” as he called it. Where c!Tubbo couldn’t handle his pain or the evil of the server and so would use the dead man’s switch to nuke himself and potentially someone else. (this is the missing nuke story that we haven't gotten a conclusion or really any answers to...) Cc!Tubbo decided to wait on the nuke plot though, wait and see if maybe there was more his character could do, mirroring real life where someone in this case would wait it out a bit. So if we look at this with c!Tubbo, he was contemplating, but decided to give it a while and see if things improved, and he had his family to care for and love. Skip to now where he doesn’t have his family, doesn’t have Tommy completely, doesn’t really have anyone.
- - - - -  
-Ok back to the main stream now. So Tubbo is reflecting on the present, what happened, and Snowchester itself. Snowchester that he built has a safe haven, a commune, his escape from the rest of the smp and the pains of the past. Tubbo walks around asking again what went wrong, and reminiscing on the memories. Ranboo, Jack, Foolish, Michael. (Tubbo mentions the nukes, and he says he decommissioned them and shot them away, not wanting anyone to steal another.  Which made me very happy as it meant c!Tubbo was doing better.) 
- So after some remembering and planning from Tubbo, Technobalde shows up at his door. They get into action right away and start talking about what they should do first. Techno says they should follow their first lead, the chest Eret originally left for Tubbo telling him that they had protected Michael. With their lead, they decided to make their way to the castle to get some answers from Eret.
- While on their way, a couple things happen.
Tubbo doesn’t have any weapons or armor, and so Techno lends him the Ranboo axe, which is very important to Techno.
Tubbo has a great bit the whole stream about being in shock and the five stages of grief about Ranboo’s death
Tubbo and Techno get into a really great conversation about revenge. Tubbo actually apologizes to Technoblade for the execution, and Technoblade tells him it’s all good. Technoblade admits to having some issues and faults to when he spawned the withers. They basically call it even, and say they need to turn over a new leaf to work together. They have a really great mature conversation about the cycle of revenge, and how it never ends, you’re never happy, and that you just have to stop. Stop history from repeating itself. They then go on to say they’ve learned from the past, but they are definitely going to go get some revenge right now on whoever has stolen Michael.
Tubbo and Technoblade do not know the full story, and so are preparing to potentially fight Eret.
- So they get to the castle and Tubbo starts demanding Eret tell him what's going on. Eret tells their side, about how they were protecting Michael, but messed up by trusting Sam, who kidnapped Michael. Tubbo right off the bat is frustrated that Eret trusted sam “now why would you do that! He’s a prison warden.” I’m sensing this could be anger from Tommy’s death among other things. They agree to all team up.
- So they need to go after Sam, and Technoblade gets out some books Dream gave him that had information on people (Sam and Quackity) and Techno finds Sam’s address in the book, so they start making their way to go save Michael and make Sam pay.
Now for one of my favorite parts of the stream, the apologies.
- It starts with them coming to the realization that this rag tag team are all enemies. Eret and Techno are the people that look Tubbo’s cannon lives. Eret is a king, and Techno is an anarchist. And Tubbo can be dangerous when he wants to be so look out.
- upon this realization, Tubbo steps back and tries to make sure this isn’t some trap against him. To assure Tubbo of their trustworthiness, Tubbo asks for an apology, and they apologize.
Now the big thing to remember about Tubbo, is that he tries to act logically and not emotionally. Tubbo hides and conceals his emotions and feelings. Tubbo accepts apologies, for the sake of moving on, but doesn’t forget. Tubbo has self worth issues that made themselves known in the early snowchester building, when he himself compared himself to schlatt. He has constantly had people using him and comparing him to schlatt, that he shuts his emotions down so he doesn’t have to deal with them. Tubbo struggles with communication, he doesn’t tell Ranboo a lot of things. Tubbo just moves on. He takes your apology, acts like he forgives, but he doesn’t truly forgive or forget. Our main points of this is directly after the festival, where Tubbo says he forgives Technoblade, so they don’t have to face conflict among them. Then when revived wilbur finds Tubbo on L’manburgs anniversary, Tubbo “forgives” Wilbur, but will not forget or trust wilbur.
- Techno’s Apology
Technoblade, the blade, apologizes, and I just see so much character development in this stream. Many streams of course, they just make themselves really known when you get Techno apologizing or whenever it’s about Ranboo.
Techno apologizes for the festival. He says he’s been thinking about it, and realizes it was his fault. He says it still wasn’t right/kind for Wilbur and the pogtopia team to throw him in their with no back up or support, but he should have done better. He actually calls his actions pathetic.
One of the big arguments I’ve seen against Techno actions in the festival is that he was on Pogtopia’s side of course, and Killed Tubbo at Schlatt’s orders. You could tell Techno was nervous, and the peerpressure and voices were getting to him, he tried to stall. But the main point is, that he listened and obeyed a government when he killed Tubbo. If he was an anarchist he should be willing to die for his beliefs and not be afraid to face the crowd at the festival. Rather die then obey. Techno actually addresses this in his apology, and it was amazing. (Techno also says he won’t make the mistake of not dying for his beliefs again, which to me is also kinda scary for what that could imply.)
For this apology, it is easier for Tubbo is accept because he can see where Techno was coming from in a sense. He can understand there were a lot of people, that Techno felt pressured. Techno didn’t just decided to do this, he was ordered to. Tubbo has also felt pressured to so things, been used, and so can share a little understanding with Techno.
- Eret’s Apology
“I thought that betraying L’manburg would, would help make everything go back to peace. And I learned, I learned I was wrong.”
 Eret simply says. Eret has been trying to apologize for a whole year plus now, so there’s not too much to say on it. Eret could have brought up to Tubbo how Dream was involved, but they took responsibility and kept is short. 
Later in the stream Tubbo expresses how he still hasn’t forgotten and still can't trust Eret yet, but it’s to new beginnings. It is harder for Tubbo to forgive Eret because of a few reasons. 1.Eret was his friend and he got betrayed. While with Techno, Tubbo barley knew him, so it didn’t hurt as much. 2. Tubbo can’t sympathize with Eret. Can’t relate. Maybe they could relate about Dream manipulating and pulling their hands, but they haven't spoken about it. 3.To Tubbo’s pov, Eret did it all to his own violation, Eret made the choice, and chose to betray and Kill them. Tubbo knows Techno was pressured into doing what he did, while Eret was not and it could have been prevented.
Later in the stream Tubbo and Eret talk about tnt droppers they were making in early L’manburg days but c!Dream told them off. They reminisce on the good old days, and Tubbo realizes they were making the tnt weapons the day before Eret’s betrayal. It was awkward and hilarious. (This stream was just full of fun moments and I can’t list them all)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _  _ _ 
Then during/ at the very end of his apology, Technoblade says this, “It’s just, you see the thing is.” “Where I come from Tubbo, people don’t have multiple lives Tubbo.” Now if this isn’t foreshadowing I don’t know what is. I am very excited for whatever Technoblade is planning. He says this, and we also have whatever secret build he’s building.
I have several thoughts about this line.
Techno says “where I come from” Which makes it seem like he’s saying he too has only one life. In George’s “Kill the smp” stream, that was a dream, Techno also says “No George, don’t take my 1 cannon life” Now that could have been joking, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence. Also early on in the smp when cc!Wilbur was making a reddit post about all the member’s lives, Technoblade said he didn’t want to say. Seems like things are leading to Techno having one cannon life. Be it because he lost some, or he only ever had one. This also could lead into the theory some people are having of the hostile mobs having different life systems.
When he says “where I come from...” This could be implying some new backstory with some piglins, or as some have theorized, it could be referencing a past smp. We have had parts of other smps being cannon, such as Earth smp. So if it is referencing a past smp or Minecraft thing, well I can’t think of anywhere “one life” would be prominent. There is Minecraft Monday I suppose.
So after a little heart to heart, they set off for real to go get Sam. (They pass by Eryn and Tubbo asked who he is. Tubbo clearly hasn’t left Snowchester in a while, and good cc!Tubbo for staying in characters and not knowing Eryn.) 
 -They set sea for Sam’s location, and it’s full of more funny conversations. Tubbo mentions how Techno never left an Uber rating when they took him for his execution. Just another great reoccurring joke in this stream.
They get to the island and Sam spots them. Sam approaches them full netherite and weapons dawn, so it’s clear he knows it’s time for a fight and he’s willing to do it. Tubbo goes forward first and demands Sam tells him where Michael is. Sam is confused about why they are all together, and says he told Eret that he was keeping Michael safe, and that he needed Michael. He refuses to let Tubbo see his son. They yell at him for kidnaping a baby and for Killing Ranboo, asking him why, and he still won’t tell us, just that he “needed to”. Sam keeps trying to say he’s in the right without elaborating, and so starts the rescue team calling him a super villain. 
Sam says he took Michael to control Ranboo, so he could use Ranboo to control Techno, so he could control Dream and keep Dream in the prison. He mentions how he originally arrested Techno cause he know Techno would have broken Dream out, and Techno says he might not have though, if anything Sam sped up the process. Innocent until proven guilty.  Now when Sam took Ranboo Sam seemed really harsh, so I do think he is hiding another maybe real reason that Ranboo was in the prison. I just want to believe Sam is smarter then this -_-
They attack and get Sam to surrender, it’s them three against him and not a lot of space to run. He gives his armor to them and they think of what he will have to do to repent for his crimes. Tubbo says death is not right. He says death is too good for him, (I’d also like to believe that they are also slightly realizing that death is not the answer.) they need him to repent for what he’s done. Eret and Techno give the final say to Tubbo, it was his kid and husband after all. “He may have been my disciple, but he was your husband” -Techno. (This is really great that they are giving him the command and control, Tubbo definitely deserves this.) And so Tubbo decides the best thing will be to turn this case around, and trap Sam in his own prison.
Sam first shows them where Michael is and that he’s safe, and they decide they’ll come back and take Michael home after they’ve dealt with Sam.
So They take Sam. They tell him either he comes with them to the prison and locks himself up basically, or they kill him. He decides to go to the prison. They only thing they allow him to keep on him is a watch. They take him to the prison in boats, and it’s another funny Uber joke for a bit. (Now during the stream I was very suspicious of Sam. In the end we got what he was doing, but it wasn’t what I thought. I’m not going to go too far into it, saving it for the Sam prison streams, but I’d still like to shortly mention it here. Sam has multiple bodies, whether that be robot’s or clones, or whatever it is, we know he has multiple hims, that do things on the server. It’s a secret of his, and the only one who knows is Boomer. Just some food for thought, could Sam just escape with this body things? How does it work?)
A lot of the stream from here is just bringing Sam to prison and our usual long process of getting him in, then transporting Michael, but there were still important bits. 
- another nice fun moment of them talking about home this whole things was a lot like a super hero backstory for Michael. That he could totally turn into a super hero now. It reminds me of the talk Ranboo and Techno had in that one stream, Techno mentor stream :’)
- Sam tries to get them to set him free by paying them back with Techno and Ranboo’s items, but they say no. Tubbo acquires all of Ranboo’s items, only leaving a few though. One of the items he acquired was the Memory book, and the chat really wanted him to read it. It would have been interesting, but it’s great of Tubbo to respect his husband’s privacy. 
- While going through the guards passages Tubbo finds the contract books. I think we only see books signed by Bad and Ranboo. Two of these Ranboo books are from when he was Enderwalking. The ender language doesn’t say anything special, just “I hereby assume, signed Ranboo.”
-  While walking through the prison Sam is trying very hard to slow them down and be a menace. Pushing buttons, not cooperating, taking his time. He asks if any of them have fire res. Once they get to the entrance to the main cell, Sam brings out his watch, and tells them it’s midnights, and that this was his plan. They keycards reset everyday at midnight, and Sam is the only one that can reactivate them. So now the “Revengers” are also stuck with him in the prison with no way out. They can’t use Techno’s exit because they don’t have fire res potions. They choose to ignore him for the time being and put him in the cell. 
It’s rather short, they just put him in and then start trying to get out of the prison. Techno chooses the tnt way, just blowing up anything in their way. It makes for an easy escape for them, but it is breaking the prison and making it less fortified and secure. 
Once they get to the main entrance hall again, they realize they can’t blow their way out of this one, and so one of them has to stay to work the door. Eret volunteers due to having a statis chamber nearby at one of their towers. 
So Tubbo and Techno get out of the prison and make their way to the tower. They say some more about sam being a villain, and Techno says even he knows not to kidnap a baby. They pass L’maburg, and Techno comments on how “things are healing.” Tubbo starts singing the anthem, and Techno says he doesn’t know the lyrics. Tubbo also comments on how easy it felt to capture Sam, does Techno think he could be tricking them.
They get to the tower and teleport Eret to them, who says they were a bit scared they’d be left behind. The gang then comments once more on their unlikely team, A King, an Anarchist, and a kid they both killed who has nukes. And they decide to give it a name while on their way back to retrieve Michael. So on their way, Tubbo dubs them, “The revengers”. 
They also comment on how they can’t get back in the prison. And is Sam going to automatically get food... They can’t get in, and didn’t really think about how Dream was brought food. 
Tubbo speeds his way there, in a rush to retrieve his son. And then they decide to take him to Techno’s house, due to it being closer, and cause Tubbo’s house is compromised. They make their way there working nicely together to safely transport Michael.
Once they get Micheal to Ranboo’s house, Techno notices something in the window, they look up and see that it’s ghostboo. (And know that none of these characters knew there was a GhostRanboo at this point.) He walks out, and Techno is at a loss of words, but he ends us saying “Ranboo, we got him, we got your son. I understood the message Ranboo.” Displaying once more the close bond between them and that Techno would do whatever he could to fulfil Ranboo’s dying wish.
To us the audience ghostboo is a lot quieter, but the others don’t know that, and I think it could just be Ghostboo being happy that Michael is safe. I’m happy his not complete apathy like he appeared. He was really gentle and it was sweet.
Tubbo comments on how he went through the five stages of grief for nothing, but I’d say i’s till totally valid, these ghosts are quite different. They ask ghostboo how he’s here, and he tells them he doesn’t know, but that yes he is still dead.
They then successfully get Michael in the house, and the mission is complete. Tubbo gives Ghostboo his belongings, including his memory book, and the revengers go to the sell out bell to celebrate.
And WITH That, the stream is over :)
It was a crazy fun stream, brought us laughs, serious discussions and conversations, bloopers, foreshadowing for future lore, and a group of newly friends/allies. 
_______________________________
I really look forward to whatever these characters and creators have in store for us next. Especially the Techno lore because that's been confirmed to be happening. 
I had more thoughts after this stream, but those will be addressed, soon, next time when we revise the current streams from Sam’s time in the prison.

Wallflower AU (aka highschool au made w/ @bellfort3)
V i b e s - hanging on the roof; walking across train tracks; skipping school; Lakes, yes, something with lakes; something with different types of sodas. - My angsty teens are gonna have painted nails - Tommy bleaches his hair; Wilbur dyes his hair black - dramatic fuck. - Wilbur in eyeliner plz - Wilbur wears doc martens; black, yellow, maroon, silver shiny - Tommy's worn the same exact jean jacket for the past 5 years; it's 2 sizes bigger than he is; but he wears it every single day; it has fur on the inside; and its light washed with tears; the tears didn’t come like it; he's just ripped it over the years - He doesn't wash it very often, but he's glued patches on it, and Wilbur's drawn on it in sharpie. He just layers hoodies or flannels under it when it’s cold, but still wears it when it's hot - Tommy's also worn the same shoes for YEARS, they’re duct taped together at this point, they're white converse, they're not white anymore, and he's bleach-washed them SO many times that they permanently smell like chemicals. - The laces are frayed, so bad that he doesn’t even wear the laces most days. - Tommy doesn't shy from going in mud or water though, he'll wear the shoes to their fullest and then some. - I think you can tell by now, that Tommy just doesn’t come from a lot of money. - They live in a kind of run down town, very poor, old, smallish. - Wilbur is middle class, which is very well off in the area he lives in. - Wilbur gives off family disappointment vibes. Where he has to sneak out at night, Tommy can leave through his front door. - Wilbur calls Tommy “sunshine”, but very sarcastically since Tommy is a dick :) - Tommy has one of Wilbur's old beanies; it's black and monster branded, the monster logo is green - Wilbur gave it to Tommy 3 years ago, and Tommy never gave it back - btw Tommy's 17 and Wilbur's 19: Tommy's a junior and Wilbur's a senior - Wilbur only drinks Green Apple Monster - Tommy drinks sugar free redbull, but mostly only when Wilbur buys it for him, because Tommy usually doesn't have pocket change - Wilbur and Tommy bring speakers to the train tracks and dance and by that, its them jumping around and occasionally pushing someone over - Tommy uses his allowance to buy cigarettes; Wilbur vapes - both mentally ill - Wilbur is essentially the modern emo. He has this one yellow and black flannel that's oversized, and he wears it multiple times a week - it’s a problem.
- Dream, Wilbur, Karl, Tommy, Big Q, SapNap, Punz, and Tubbo - That’s the group. - I have just been talking about Tommy and Wilbur but they are the main characters so you can suck it. - A scene with Dream, Wilbur, Karl, Tommy, Big Q, SapNap, Punz, and Tubbo, at a lake, throwing each other in, and Tommy gets his shoes soaked, but he saves his jacket from the fall. Water gun fights, and they drink energy drinks and eat chips. they lay in the grass and contemplate life, Talk abt life yes. Abt existence. Abt how shit it is. Half of them have to wake up early and sneak home, the other half get to stay as long as they like. - Tommy tucks his t-shirts into his pants, which are always very baggy black jeans with just gigantic holes. - Tommy and Dream both have ADHD, however, Tommy's meds are purely from welfare, he cannot afford to give any out. Dream however? From an upper-middleclass family. Basically millionaires in this town. He can afford to lose some of his meds. - He yells in the clearing "COME GET YOUR DRUGS CHILDREN" - Besides, I've learned that there are like so many different ADHD meds, and maybe Tommy is just on something a lot stronger than adderall. He can't partake in the pill popping, but he doesn't mind. He does it every morning. - They don't do it often, maybe once a month, depends on how big Dream's prescription is - not that he regularly takes them like a good boy should - And I won't ever write this, but Gogy hangs out with them every so often, in which Gogy and Wilbur have an on and off again hooking up type relationship - whenever they hang out, Gogy like sits and Wilbur's lap and shit - Tommy and Punz GAG - "EW the fuck - get your hands off eachother. ITS GROSS - NO PDA IN MY BACKYARD"
- They hang out in an abandoned Building. But they don't try to fix it up. They're not fucking VSCO girls. They just want somewhere to hang out - If anything they make it worse - they fucking trash the place - It’s not intentional though - It’s like they can have fun without worrying abt the mess - just, sometimes they spill hawiian punch mixed with vodka everywhere - THEY GHOST HUNT AND OUIJA BOARD AND SHIT - They hang out in cemeteries too. they play manhunt in a cemetery, but like the regular version- like just hide and go seek in the dark. - they've done seances even though almost all of them are atheists - anyways the point of the fact is, is that half of them (excluding the minors you know) I'm looking at you Karl and Q - somethings going on between you two have made out with guys, and I'm not gonna sugar coat it, most modern like takes on religion do not take kindly to that
- they go to prom - and Dream somehow ends up with a ton of weed, because he had just turned old enough, and had the money - and they get fucking high OUT of their minds, like they're never doing it again - like, George and Wilbur definitely hooked up at Wilbur's house, which they aren't supposed to do - because Wilbur's parents will fucking flip that Wilbur is sleeping with a random person. No one is quite sure where SapNap ended up, and Tommy lost one of his shoes. In a panic, they spent the next 3 hours looking for it to find it at the lake by the school - Tommy fucking cradles it to his chest. -  (are wilburs parents homophobic?) (yes maybe a little side of homophobia) (Is wilbur bisexual or gay?) (he is ‘whoever the fuck looks bangable’) (fair enough) (he is ‘gogy my king’) (TRUUUE) - the bleachers - they hang out under the bleachers
- Gogy = Stylish stoner - very popular, but never not high - Karl is like the goody two-shoes of the group, doesn't skip class, and is on the principals list, however, he will NEVER back down from space brownies - its his weakness - Tubbo has a subway pass, and they do that thing where Tubbo swipes it and everyone fucking bolts into the subway, and they take all the trains at like 4am and just hang from the bars and shit - Wilbur still dresses relatively like, nicely and scholarly, which puts everyone off. He wears very loose sweaters with button-ups underneath. with khakis or black jeans and his docs - where his best friend, our Tommy, wears borderline yellow converse, and one bleached two-sizes-too-large jean jacket, and some second-hand-store hoodies, that are always a bit too worn in, but so, incredibly Tommy - Tommy who legit hasn't brushed his hair in years, not with a brush anyways - too frantic to brush his teeth most mornings. but always chewing gum; Tommy's always everywhere at once - ADHD meds only half-working on him, they couldn't afford the good shit - He'll never quite understand Dream handing out his adderall for free, Tommy would kill for the hard shit, but hey, he's never gonna stop his friends from having a good time
- Let's talk about Karl Jacobs - good ole' goody two shoes Jacobs - all of his teachers are constantly trying to get him to stop hanging out with Tommy and gang - every parent teacher conference is "we love your boy, but we are concerned about his friends" - Teachers have meetings with him, about how the people you surround yourself with can change your future - Karl's like, from the good side of town, plays first in the drumline, plays violin on the side, straight a's, clean-white-air-force-ones type of guy. Name brand clothes. Combed hair - Packed lunch every day from his mom; gets dropped off by his mom, kisses her goodbye; Mom is like very involved in school too - PTA parent - it's fucking good kid Jacobs - and he's sneaking off with fucking potheads to go to college parties and abandoned buildings - Does he do drugs? Well, he’s a big fan of treats if you know what I mean :wink wink: - ….you ever see Ted's video about a 500mg edible …. yeah. - big fan of gummy bears and brownies - Karl shows up to Parties and there are shouts of "Fuckin' goody-two-shoes Jacobs is HERE" - a lot of people make fun of him and think they can push him around - He seems like a softie; welcome mat type beat - but fucking watch this man chug 5 cups of whatever you give him, and then still win beer pong - Like his best friend is fucking quackity, he can do the hard shit - its very much a his parents have no clue who he actually is type beat - Look, his parents have no clue where he is ever - And if they even know he’s out, they don’t know where or with who - If his mom is at all involved in the school, she'll hear about Quackity, basically a drug dealer with how much hash weed he hands out on a daily basis. - Tommy has to be contained in order for the school to run smoothly, and Wilbur is a dramatic fuck that sleeps through most of his classes - Tommy has to take frequent breaks - They make him spend 3rd period in the principles office - Like he obviously needs help but he can’t afford it at all. Even the school can’t do anything for him bc he can’t get anything official for himself - like he can't even try to concentrate - He gave up so quickly in high school, bc they don’t have enough time or staff to help him - he tried in middle school - but man, did he give up in highschool - Yeah. He knows it is hopeless. Can't even afford college anyway. he'll just do whatever Wilbur does - here's an idea: Fucking Karl Jacobs showing up to school one morning just absolutely hammered out of his mind - Karl just showing up to first period AP Physics, and he's barely awake, honestly smells so much like weed and booze, and if he breathed anywhere near you, you could just feel the alcohol radiating from his breath - He's extra bubbly, laughs at everything - takes out his notebook to take some sort of notes, and just fucking giggles at the shapes and equations. He is very spacy, he clearly stayed up all night doing something very illegal; he gets up and jumps around. 2nd period band? oh boy - He gets sick at lunch bet - Like everyone got Drunk but Karl got FUCKED up - It was his birthday, bet - He took like 17 shots over the course of like 8 - 12ish hours, and I looked it up, despite karl being super scrawny and probably like 140 - 150ish pounds - which isn't a lot for being 5'11 - will not kill him - BECAUSE, you guessed it, he turned 17 - He didn't sleep, he was awake taking shots and just fucking who knows what until 6am when they stumbled to school - at lunch, 11:30 in the morning - he's head down on the table, miserable - he doesn't have a hangover yet, because it's only been a few hours, but man, is he nauseous - just the smell of food makes his stomach churn - and the thing about fucking Jacobs showing up drunk as hell - is that at least one of his teachers has called his mom about it - SHES PRESIDENT OF THE PTA FOR FUCKS SAKE, ONE OF THEM KNOWS HER - And the teachers aren't stupid, Karl is so obviously drunk - generally Karl is pretty quiet in class; but now he has no distinction between hanging with hs friends and being in class - he's shouting and cracking jokes and is very tempted to kick his chair over - Anyways, Karl fucks himself over, end of story  - ONTO PUNZ’S RELGIEOUS TRAUMA WOOOOOOOOOOOO - It's Punz - fuckin' golden boy Punz; he plays football; and goes to church; and calls his mother "momma"; wears a nice church outfit; and is polite to the bible study mothers that come over on tuesday nights and gets them drinks - just a fuckin' golden boy - A religious family. Go to church every Sunday. Sunday school. Holidays. But. The kid just realizes that they don’t believe in god. Them telling the group like they’re high and he’s like “you know? Some of the shit that’s happened to us proves to me that god rlly isn’t real.” - and Punz like prays every day for Tommy's dad to get his job back; or for Gogy to get better parents; or for Karl to live the life he wants; and NOTHING EVER WORKS. THEY'RE ALL STILL FUCKED. - by the way we will get the the Tommy's dad losing his job later - But Punz's life is controlled by something he doesn't even believe in anymore - because he's still going to the like church breakfasts, and christmas service, and every sunday morning, and helping his mom's ladies bible study, and his parents are talking about sending him to a youth bible camp - - and he doesn't even think he believes in god anymore. - Punz kind of took out his own personal, religious, and family struggles out the way most teenage boys do. Drinking, and lots of sex. - SO I just imagined this like, really dramatic moment, where its the morning after Punz had a one night stand at some sort of party down the street, and he's long past saving his virginity for his wife, but he's buying her the morning after pill, which his church is just so against, and he has like the moment of, "if you do this, you're done." and he does it - he's had a couple of those moments, like, when he first had sex, and when he first smoked weed, or popped a pill, or snuck out at night, or skipped church - but that was the moment of "there is no going back" - like any type of drug or procedure that aborts an embryo, or that blocks fertilization thats already in process in like: the biggest no no in his church community - so once he stepped out of that drug store, he kind of took a breath, and just came to terms with it - "I'm an atheist." - Punz is the pastors son. - he's like, pre-commited to a catholic college - he’s in deep. - so when he first announces it to his friends, one really late night, "I think god might not be my thing." - they just start whistling and say "FINALLY, THE PASTORS SON HAS TURNED AROUND." - Dream just like turns over to him "how many chicks did you fuck to make you realize that?" - Tommy just slings his arm over Punz, "I'm glad you've quit the Jesus shit, Punz. Your better than it." - There’s gotta be this girl ok. He rlly rlly wants to have sex with her but he always backs out. The thing that breaks him. Is that he gets drunk and loses his virginity to someone who is not that girl - like, he likes this girl, and has a good connection with her, and she likes him, and he knows that its gonna be comepletly consentual, and she's like fucking beautiful right? - and she's the one he wants to loose it to and he's a stupid fucking idiot and loses it to some fucking random ass chick that doesn't even go to their school - This triggers a spiral. After that? He slowly starts giving less of a fuck abt everything. He fucked up the one thing you can’t do over and god he’s so painfully aware of it and so painfully aware that he didn’t even fuck up right. - You’re supposed to wait till marriage. Nope. You’re supposed to do it with someone you love and trust. Double nope. He. Fucked. Up. - its just like he wanted to do something bad. he wanted to fuck something up. he was questioning his faith, his like, great and sturdy and always-there faith for the first time, and what better way to test faith than to do something shitty and see what comes of it. and so he was planning and planning and planning how he was gonna do this terrible thing - which is such a good kid thing to do, to put so much thought into your own rebellion - but he wanted this to go perfectly. - Little Pastors Son, Punz, wasn't gonna wait till marriage. - He was gonna have sex with the girl of his dreams before they were even dating - but man did he like her. Did he want her. - And then he fucked some random girl when he was black out drunk. He's fucked everything up - he can't wash this away with confession - he's tainted. He's dirty. - He looks in the mirror and doesn't recognize the heathen staring back. - He hates who he's become. - But he never goes back - he can't. He's dirty. He's wrong. - but the more he goes down the spiral - the more he realizes that one mistake shouldn't have made him feel like that - that if god was real, which he honestly wasn't sure in that department, he wouldn't want Punz to feel like the scum of the earth for doing something wrong. especially when he felt so bad after he did it. This system was fucked. He didn't want to be apart of another cycle - and he's just lying to himself every time he goes to church, and reads a cerse for his mom, and meets with younger kids at the church, and plays flag football with fucking church virgins who are good catholics and follow all their mommas orders - And every night when he says grace he means it less and less. he always does it when his momma asks, but boy does the lords word mean shit to him anymore From Ethan: - A turning point to the others in Punz's breakaway from Catholicism is like - He prays before he eats, usually. Sometimes they wait for him to finish his prayer before eating themselves, just out of politeness. He's a friend, he gets that shred of etiquette - And then one day he just doesn't. They got some fast food for a whole group dinner out at their hangout spot (a warehouse, did you say??) Tommy is staring at it intently but he waits for Punz to pray. Tubbo's already started eating but the rest wait - And Punz just starts eating - Dream nudges him, "No prayer, Pastor's boy?" - "No prayer," Punz mumbles into his food. "I'm trying something new." SO, TOMMYS DAD LOSING HIS JOB ARC W000000000 - it starts with Tommy showing up in a different jacket one day - like you have to understand, he's worn this jean jacket every single day for as long as WIlbur has known him, which is like 6 years - Like Tommy shows up in this giant, khaki work-jacket and it's his dads... - HIS DAD DIDNT DIE - his dad lost his job, which is essentially death to a family who already couldn't sustain themselves - and Tommy shows up to school, face pale and cheeks sunk in and there are visible bags under his eyes - and Wilbur just rushes over immediately and hugs him so tight to his chest - and Tommy just sobs, "pops lost his job -" gasp "I can't - we can't pay the bills this month. everything - its all falling apart Will." - "Hey - hey. Stop. It's gonna be fine. You're gonna be okay. You always are dude." - Tommy does have to get a job - and he probably does drop out of school unofficially, like he just stops going. - he sleeps during the morning classes, and heads into work at 10am - he's a carpenters assistant. it pays well as they need young, able men. but most of the younger citizens in the town go to school - he has to take the day shift because the day shift pays better - he doesn't mind it, he doesn't - it gives him the opportunity to get all of his energy out; but he misses going to school. as much as he hated it, he misses his friends. - and lets be honest, its hard as fuck for his dad to find a new job, he doesn't have a great resume - he didn't graduate from highschool. and he isn;t in top health condition, he definitely doesn't have health insurance - so Tommys stuck with this job for a long time - his dad uses his last paycheck to buy Tommy workboots so tommy feels in debt to him - He’ll get his GED eventually. - I think - The like religious status of the rest of the group brought to you by me - Everyone who I don’t mention is just a hard atheist - Karl and Wilbur are catholic, but to a lesser extent, Wilbur doesn't really go through with lent, and Karl only sometimes does. They go to a different church and go pretty much on holidays only, a sunday a month maybe. - SapNap goes to Punz's church, they've been friends for years. - He goes to sunday school but misses a lot of sermons because of his siblings sports games. - He is involved, but not to the way Punz is - SapNap's mother is in fact in Punz's moms bible group - Punz sometimes doesnt attend the bible group and Sap's mother is all "now you tell that pastor's boy to actually attend next time, got it?" and Sapnap dies a little on the inside - And George is an orthodox christian, but he's pretty much quit due to the blatant homophobia he's seen at his church. 
AND NOW ON WILBUR SOOT AND KARL JACOBS AND BARKING - Wilbur has siblings, fun fact - that we will never talk about or address - but definitely nothing like Wilbur, more the Karl Jacobs type - Wilbur is the oldest. he's always lectured about being 'a good influence on your brother and sister.' - They’re big sports kids. Softball and Basketball (tall genes). Straight Bs; Bed by 10pm; Have never missed school - Parents pride and joy :) - Just good suburban kids, Have friends next door, help the neighbors, attend the cul-de-sac barbecues. - Basically who Wilbur used to be up until highschool (until Wilbur met weed and a good group of stoners) - Sure he was a disappointment and he had no clue what to do with his life - But he was happier - Never really liked being the goody- two-shoes boy next door, he doesn't know how karl does it “Playing good boy like a dog” - Also he used dog terms around Karl - Because he’s “Playing good boy like a dog” - He’ll throw Karl a beer and smile “go fetch” - He laughs so hard when he sees Karl be good in a class or play it up for his parents; Because Wilbur’s so past trying - Wilbur will walk by and just bark at karl. Bet. Just Growls lowly; Walks in a  circle; Anything to make Karl’s parents (or Wilbur’s own) stare at him and scurry away - Karl’s parents push Karl forward and like hold their younger kids close to their chest, whispering “keep close, don’t look at him” - They tell Karl to stay away from kids like him. - And boy do Wilbur’s pa#rents hate it, They push him along and whisper yell at him As he throws his head back and cackles - I mean imagine, like a stereotypical middle class suburban family: House wife, blue collared father, Two kids; in sports jerseys, Girl in braids, boy in khakis - And then there’s Wilbur: Doc Martins, black jeans, collar and sweater, beanie. Definitely high on something - Chains LOTS OF CHAINS - And he's Barking. Fucking Barking At the nice family down the street - And then he takes out his vape right in front of his parents and silently offers Karl a hit with a smirk - Cause Karl’s too busy playing good boy - And as Karl’s family looks back, as Wilbur is corralled by his mom - He flips them off with the biggest smirk uou will ever see - Wilbur's kind of an ass - And Karl really wants a hit of that vape.

Some things about that AU I made awhile back where the SMP never meets. I’m gonna call it Smp(eople)notfound, because I thought it’d be funny.
After Bad and Skeppy meet and have their whole reunion with their memories returned, the first thing Bad does is drag Skeppy over to the Manhunt worlds, where the two manage to jog the other’s memories.
Ant’s the easiest, because as part of the Badlands, he was around them the most, and them being together just instantly made sense to him. His memories came back after they just said a few things about Sam, the Badlands, Velvet, ect.
Sapnap was after, and that happened after Bad got emotional and shouted that he was his dad.
“YOU’RE MY DAD?!” “I’M YOUR DAD!” “YOU’RE MY DAD!” 
It’s a very emotional scene, in which they hug for a very long time, and it’s actually seeing it that triggers Dream and George’s own memories, because Dream Team and all.
After that, the group settles down to discuss the things they remember. Some things are still very, very foggy. Nobody can recall much about Dream after the first L’manberg war, not even him. Neither Bad, Skeppy, or Antfrost can remember anything that happened after a certain time period, nor can anyone else remember them after that point-they think they were investigating something, weren’t they?
It’s around this point that, after some research, they realize the Smp doesn’t even exist anymore, and conclude that something very, very big has happened. Time travel, maybe? But no, it can’t be, the date’s one of the days they would’ve been in the Smp. So...what happened?
Dream gets a redemption arc and character development...even if not even he realizes it, because he can’t remember going crazy, so desperate for control to make sure everything was fine, and ultimately losing himself to the power rush. 
It’s kind of hard to have the time to have a villain arc when you’re too busy trying to save everybody else, and being subjected to a morality crisis over if you even should at the same time.
He starts remembering things eventually, and he’s a very different person now than he was then(character development!), so he’s pretty much horrified. 
When Tommy meets the gang, he instantly latches onto Tubbo. He doesn’t remember him yet(Tommy’s memories are going to be incredibly hard to trigger, as are Tubbo’s), and neither does Tubbo, but Tommy trusts him with his life within moments of meeting him. 
Boffy’s a bit confused, but if Tommy trusts him, then he will as well. He’ll do his best to keep the new kid alive. 
When the two do remember(with each other ultimately being the key), they end up questioning if it’s the right thing to do. A lot of things after a certain point in the first war are incredibly blurry, but they’re pretty sure it wasn’t a kind place. Is putting that place together again really what they should be doing?
They eventually decide to continue following the group, if only to get out of this dangerous world, and to see how it’s effected everyone else. That’s the only way to determine if this a good or a bad thing. 
Boffy tags along, at some triggering his own memories of a different life, where his friendship with Tommy wasn’t as strong, but they were still close. This is what leads to everyone realizing that ‘hey, if reality’s been messed up like this, it’s not just the Smp that had their memories screwed with.’ and they start to get even deeper into it. 
Tubbo is very touch starved, after being alone for so long. There’s only so much cuddling with the animals and your piglin son can do.
He also speaks Piglin, because when the only species willing to talk to you speaks a different language, you learn it. This is how he learned there was a way to cure zombie piglin, and became on relatively good terms with the piglin tribes of the Nether. 
Tommy is very jumpy and mistrusting with everyone but Tubbo and Boffy. He lived in a world where literally everything beside Boffy was trying to kill him and respawns hurt incredibly bad-he learned to be wary very fast when he spawned into existence there. 
Considers Boffy his older brother, and refers to him as such. When the other Sleepy Bois get their memories back, they feel a bit upset with this, even if Techno and Phil can’t figure out why it even bothers them. 
Wilbur’s sky island? More like Wilbur’s sky city. Stone paths and archways, glass floors surrounding ponds, a tiny park in the center, beautiful fountains and glass mosaics windows. A lot of prettty and unique things.
Listen, when you spend so much of your life in one place, it’s bound to eventually build up a bit. He eventually figured out how to make different stone variants, as well as got a few more dirt blocks, and went on from there to build what would become quite the impressive and interesting place, even if it’s only inhabitants were him and his now many pets. 
He never could manage to make himself strip down his old cobble house completely though, no matter how ugly it was. He managed to get about half-way through before, for the first time, the quiet started to get to him, and he had to stop and do something else. 
The build reminds him of something he can’t pinpoint, but he never manages to work up the courage to finish tearing it down. 
Hbomb stays in X life, and causes his mischief there. Fundy begs them to leave him there, and let him think he never knew them.
They go anyway.

Teddy Bear Anon has purposed yet another interesting addition to the Immune AU which gives me plot ideas! In particular, a scene that would really help give past Dream a strong push into his character arc. 
I like to image that immune!Dream’s character arc starts with the death of immune!Puffy. Sure, maybe he’s not sad yet, but he feels something for the woman who declared herself his pseudo mother. It’s what helps to crack the shell enough for the rest of the immune gang to start weedling their way into his heart. Immune!Dream after spending enough time watching the group he, starts to realize that yeah, connections to other people isn’t a weakness. It really is a strength. It’s something that takes time for him to come to terms with because Techno seems like a testament to the fact connections are a weakness. He was unbeatable until his horse got kidnapped. His only connection, his only weakness. But then there’s Tommy who seems to represent the complete opposite. 
Where Dream represents strength from caring too little, Tommy represents strength from caring far too much. Now I’m a sucker for bamf Tommy, and I like to personally imagine that maybe the Immunes hold out for a year or two before they cave and try to make the portal. So Tommy has what really boils down to a two year training arc on top of already being a child veteran (I like to canonize SMP Earth as well because personal preference and it gives me even more room to make Tommy suffer. SMP Earth being canon? God, so much fucking trauma considering how the others treated him, a 15 year old child, like an adult.) Anyway Dream slowly realizes connections with one another are what kept the remaining Immunes alive, and he tries to force his younger self to understand that. Tries, but doesn’t really get far. Up until what everyone else calls The Fight.
Tommy’s always just kind of screwed around in fights as long as there’s only a threat to him. We know he has a tendency to throw if MCC is any indicator. But then they time travel and maybe they spend some time in the past trying to get the situation sorted and the past’s Dream maybe just kinda does something to Tubbo. Doesn’t even have to be big, it just needs to clock as a threat to Immune!Tommy who’s already lost his Tubbo and refuses to let his younger self go through that. So Tommy goes completely ape shit on the younger Dream. Sure, it’s only been two years for this Tommy. He’s probably, like, 18 or 19 at most. Still a child as far as a lot of people are concerned. He shouldn’t be stronger than Dream or Technoblade, and in the few cross group sparing sessions they’ve had he isn’t. He’s stronger than his younger self but no where near these two demi gods of combat. But then Dream suddenly registers as a threat to Tubbo in Immune!Tommy’s eyes and he makes the mistake of mocking Tommy while he’s at it. He knows that immune!Tommy lost his Tubbo and maybe the past Dream is lashing out slightly or trying to get some kind of foothold in Tommy’s psyche. He isn’t doing anything near what immune!Dream has done, but it’s enough to piss Tommy off. So immune!Tommy challenges Dream to a fight and Dream immediately realizes the mistake he’s made when Tommy starts to destroy him. 
Say even Techno’s there for some reason or another and he realizes what’s going down so he tries to calm Tommy down, joining the fight just as Dream is loosing it. The situation quickly turns into the first time Techno’s ever gotten his ass thoroughly kicked by Tommy, leaving everyone spectating baffled (Tommy’s younger self partly included). They’re certain this kid is going on some rampage and none of them can stop him but the moment Dream and Techno are both taken care of (wounded, not killed, the older Tommy is always careful about that. He even throws a splash healing on them with some indifferent kind of disgust that hides the fact he does still care to some extent even hurting as he is.) Tommy immediately just switches focus to outright doting on Tubbo, ignoring any muttered Clingyinnits in favor of ensuring Tubbo is fine. Tubbo is completely find and just as confused, but the point stands and neither Tommy ends up leaving Tubbo’s side for the rest of the day. The younger Tommy, after all, is the only one the older Tommy’s told the full story to regarding the future (even when he couldn’t trust his own family he was always able to trust himself with the secrets that mattered, so he prepares his younger self in case the worst comes to pass.)
The older Dream, immune!Dream, he doesn’t get involved. He sit on the side lines and just kinda laughs, the sound drowned out by Sapnap’s loud encouragements and Sam’s half hearted attempts to get Tommy to stop (he could have stopped Tommy immediately if he’d stepped in. Sam is after all the only person on earth Tommy listens to without hesitation, but Sam lets it happen and pretends he tried.) 
Immune!Dream just kinda smirks at his younger self later that night and mentions something about attachments really making you weak. After all, it’s not like the only time Tommy takes a battle seriously is when someone he cares about is in danger. It’s not like Tommy would turn the world into a seared ball for Tubbo, and Tubbo would do the same in return. It’s not like they’ve watched the people they care about temporarily rebuke the Crimson just to give the Immunes those precious extra seconds needed to survive in a fight. Attachments, they’re just a weakness.
The younger Dream doesn’t know how to respond to that. It’s the first time he thinks about his older self maybe being right.
Before I go I wanna leave you with two more ideas for the Immune AU
First up, Wilbur is eight years older than Tommy give or take. Wilbur had Fundy when he was around 16 and Tommy was around 8. Tommy was the best damn uncle he could be and for a while Tommy and Fundy were really stupidly close. They were both apart of the raised by Wilbur club and Wilbur was trying his damn best. Fundy aged/matured (physically and mentally) faster than a regular person for a while. They believed it was because he was a fox hybrid and Wilbur was ready to lose Fundy too soon. When Fundy was equivalent to 18 in human years though his aging process suddenly slowed to a crawl and his tail split into two, at which point the group realized he was actually a kitsune and it was just those first 8 years that passed by quickly (and Wilbur had a lot of questions for the now missing Sally who he’d thought was a salmon hybrid, genuinely, but became exceedingly less sure.) His family knows he’s a kitsune, but Fundy hid it from most of the rest of the server. A good thing considering later events. 
Fundy was part of the Immune group for a while and I like to imagine that he and Tommy had a falling out during the Pogtopia era but after the egg started to take over they started bonding again and acting like, well, family. Unfortunately when it came time for them to activate the portal, Fundy ended up getting separated from the group and getting caught. The eggpire didn’t actually know Fundy was fully immune or a kitsune so he just kinda pretended to get infected, using his illusions to make his fur look crimson. I personally like the idea that Fundy at some point managed to get back to the time machine and being a little code wizard manages to get the thing working and yeets himself in. He shows up a little late but after fixing his appearance manages to catch up with the rest of the group.
Fundy is underrated. Tommy being a good uncle is underrated. Sam would absolutely adopt the traumatized fox baby in Eret’s honor. What’s not to love?
The last concept I wanna bring up that I really like is hybrid Tommy. Tanuki would be good since it’s another reason for the Sam Nook bit. Maybe Sam specifically picked Sam Nook since Tom Nook was Tommy’s favorite character on the grounds he was the only representation Tommy had ever gotten and it made the kiddo happy. However, I also personally really like phoenix Tommy and it would make an interesting plot point. Tommy accidentally losing his third life at some point and realizing he’s an immortal creature of fire would have led to him taking a protector role for his new family. He can’t die, but he can burn anything around him, why not send him out to get supplies when the worst the eggpire could do would be capture him. Even then he just literally cannot hear the egg. Which could lead to both some interesting comedic moments and some really good angst if Sam agonizes over his desire to protect Tommy and let him be a child suddenly being at odds with the fact Tommy is literally the best person for the job so to speak. Not to mention Sapnap, who I headcanon as a Blaze hybrid, would be even more attached the moment he found a new fire proof friend to burn forests with him. Regardless of which hybrid type he is, I could see him hiding it from everyone except for Fundy when he was a child and only ever admitting it later to the other Immunes once they become a found family.
Personally I like the idea of Tommy being part tanuki hybrid and part phoenix hybrid, but is that too mary sue? Is it just a little bit too cheesy to have him be both? I will never not try to incorporate phoenix Tommy into my fics but also tanuki Tommy would be such a mood for this au.
Like image Tommy just builds a den that’s in reality a vault/panic room a la Techno and he hides it under Church Prime since that is The Safe Spot in Tommy’s mind.

Dream SMP, But Make It Hardcore
Aka. What if you only have one canon live
This is written before 30 Days SMP, I know there’s no connection with DSMP but just in case XD
Before we start, we need to lay down several rule.
There should be at least one player death for each war/arc, with possible some exception.
In this au, there are majority two ways to cheat death: using the totem of undying and the resurrection book. Totem of undying can only be used if the victim is holding it when they on the brink of death. The resurrection book can only be used with equivalent exchange: a life for a life. Any methods outside of this won't be acknowledged temporarily. Except one that we’ll discuss later.
Thirdly, the existence of ghost. As far as I knew, the only ghost characters are Ghostbur, Glatt, and Mexican Dream. All of them are formerly death people. But so far, at least from what I know, there is no actual reasoning of how the three of them came to be. So, temporarily, we will pretend ghost doesn't exist.
Fourthly, if the characters have crucial role in the Arc, the role will be passed on to someone else. This is still in the juggling process, so there will be possible contradictions.
Lastly, I'm not versatile in Dream SMP lore. I only join after Tommy resurrection, but I have a vague knowledge of the previous season. Even so, I haven't watch all the POV, so I might mot know which canon death is important and which is not. I'll try my best and follow the wiki, you any of you can argue with me. I'm open for discussion.
Now with that out of the way, let's begin the body count.
Acknowledged Death
Fundy
Cause of Death: The Final Control Room
There is no denying that Eret’s Final Control Room is one of the most iconic scene in all of Dream SMP, thus any death that happens here would have bigger meaning: they died because of a betrayal, they died fighting for the independence of their beloved country. If they die here, they die as a revolutionary hero.
However, if we look in the L’Manburg gang, everyone has importance in future role: Wilbur with the Season 1 finale, Tommy with the Season 2 finale, Tubbo with the Manberg Festivavl, Eret with the Final Control Room, Fundy with the Schlatt Administration. But, if we hae to choose one, unfortunately, we have to choose Fundy. Wilbur and Tubbo has bigger role in the narrative of Season 1 and Tommy is the central character throught Season 1 and 2. However, knowing the future and Quackity lore, we don't know how far Fundy would go in depth. So we'll put a pin on this.
Tubbo
Cause of Death: Manberg Festival Execution
Canonically speaking, so far, Tubbo has lost two canon life: in the Final Control Room to Sapnap and the Manberg Festival Execution to Technoblade. Both events are crucial in the DSMP lore however I chose the execution because it kick-started the Manberg vs Pogtopia War even further. Tubbo’s death leads Nikki and many others to join Pogtopia and Tommy vs Techno Duel at Pogtopia. Unlike Techno, Tubbo doesn’t have the Totem of Undying, thus his execution is inevitable.
However, as we know, Tubbo’s role at the end of Season 1 and beyond is important. He’s the president of L’Manberg, he exiles Tommy, the Butcher Army, and the Disc Confrontation. If he dies very early in the story, many plot will be lost. So, temporarily, unless by divine intervention his execution is stopped, his lore will be given to Lani or Ranboo.
JSchlatt
Cause of Death: Heart attack at the the end of Manberg vs Pogtopia War
This is probably the first ever canon permanent death, so we had to put in here. Schlatt other two death are during the Manberg Festival, having caught in Technoblade fireworks, and Quackity assassination at The White House. Since we already have Tubbo’s death during the Manberg Festival, that only leave with Quackity assasination and his heart attack. But, considering his heart attack death ends the Manberg vs Pogtopia War, I choose this. I’m sure anyone would agree in this.
My only worry is the potential of Schlatt’s resurrection by Quackity. In rule two, you need one soul to resurrect another. Who would Quackity kill to resurrect Schlatt?
Mexican Dream
Cause of Death: Killed by Dream during Exile Arc
Poor Mexican Dream. The best character always die too early. But, according to this wonderful analysis video, Mexican Dream is very crucial to Tommy descend to depression during the Exile Arc. With Mexican Dream being the few people who visit Tommy during exile, his presence becomes quite importance to Tommy. Which is why when Mexican Dream dies, Tommy is left with no one else (but Dream) which leads him down a harsher path to depression and suicide. 
Tommy
Cause of Death: Killed by Dream in the prison
We know that Tommy is the main character throughout Season 1 and 2, so why is he chosen for death? One reason: Wilbur’s resurrection.
All of Tommy’s death are actually important in the history of Dream SMP, but as we know, his role in Season 1 and 2 are too important that I can’t think of anyone else who can replace him. His death in the prison is a shocking moment and I’m pretty sure everyone remembers that. The main character is killed by the antagonist. Tragic isn’t it? And going back to Point 2, with Tommy’s death, Dream can resurrect Wilbur for whatever he’s planning for the future.  A soul for a soul; Tommy death’s for Wilbur’s resurrection.
Antfrost
Cause of Death: Killed by Puffy during the Red Banquet
The Red Banquet is once again a staple event on the server. Even if it’s count as a side-arc, we can’t ignore any awesome moments surrounding this event (plus, nearly all characters that Quackity recruit in Las Nevadas Arc were invited to the Red Banquet). Thus, any death happening here will effected the Eggpire gang and the guest invited there. Back then, Antfront was the one suggesting that Foolish should be sacrifice first, which made him being a bigger target for Puffy and for her to gain revenge for the death of her son. Plus, Bad mentioned that the egg required energy gained from death to hatch, thus Antfrost (and Foolish) death will fed the egg more... 
Survived
Quackity
Currently, we have Las Nevadas Arc with Quackity as the central characters, this there is no doubt that Quakcity is an important character. Heck, even before this, his role is very crucial in history. He challenged Wilbur in the election, becoming the vice president of Manberg and New L’Manberg, conducting the Butcher Army, and in Dream’s imprisonment.
Quackity has one canon death: his duel with Technoblade (the one death on the Manberg Festival by Technoblade has been retconned). So, knowing the imortance of his role in future Las Nevadas Arc, he didn’t die after the battle with Technoblade.
Jack Manifold
Jack Manifold probably had the most unfortunate deaths of all. He was killed by Wilbur because the dude just felt like it. He was killed by Tommy because he was too surprise. And he was killed by Techno during Doomsday. He’s like the SBI kids personal victim.
Now, out of all the death he suffered, I can only count his death to Techno to be the most crucial. However, Jack and Techno doesn’t have that strong relationship except Jack thinking Techno was an enemy because of Doomsday. Heck, even Jack isn’t written in Techno’s relationship list. Thus, I can’t make Jack to have a battle to the death with Techno. Compare this to Quackity vs Techno which already lit up during the Butcher Army incident, thus making Quackity vs Techno much stronger than Jack vs Techno.
Dream
Skeppy-BadBoyHalo
Originally I was going to count this as a canon death. However, their death happened before the Red Banquet, which was a bigger event. But I won’t deny that Skeppy and Bad’s fight is heart-wrenching in a way. Both of them are very close and it’s just sad to see them had a big fight like this. You can blame the Egg for messing with their head, but it lead to Skeppy’s death and Bad soon followed. You can’t deny how Bad and Skeppy’s lives are connected is quite cute.
Because both of them are the main players of the Eggpire Arc, we need to keep them alive until the end of the arc.
Cheated Death
Karl Jacobs
Origin Cause of Death: Manberg vs Pogtopia War
Method of Cheating Death: Time travel power awakening
Karl is an interesting character regarding the lore in Tales of the SMP. It had been confirm that Karl is a time traveler, however I don’t think we actually know when he got that power. Thus, if we want to incorporate this in lore we can take his death in canon and make it he could time travel for the first time, only returning when the war is over or before he was killed to avoid it. So, this is the only resurrections outside the usual methods I’m willing to acknowledge. 
Technoblade
Origin Cause of Death: Butcher Army excecution
Method of Cheating Death: Holding the Totem of Undying
Canon, this is the first canon cheated death in the series so I’m keeping this, there’s no really a further connection. The execution, along with the whole Butcher Army is the start of Quackity Villain Arc, Tubbo descend into mirroring Schlatt, Bedrocks Duo, thus marking this moment as an important staple. Also, SAD-ist Hog Hunt, my beloved. But also, Technoblade is possibly the strongest member on the DSMP, seeing that even the strongest need to cheat to avoid death is interesting.
Foolish Gamers
Origin Cause of Death: The Red Banquet Sacrifice
Method of Cheating Death: The embodiment of Totem of Undying
Foolish is a god, the embodiment of the Totem of Undying, thus he has a personal connection with cheating death and resurrection. Same case with Technoblade but with more sinister condition. Even a god like Foolish can’t escape death and need to cheat to survive. But also, his death only fueled the Egg into hatching, which wouldn’t be good in the long run.
Wilbur Soot
Origin Cause of Death: Season 1 Finale
Method of Cheating Death: Resurrected by Dream with Tommy’s soul in exchange
Wilbur’s death is definitely an iconic moment considering this is the peak of his madness. The only problem is the existence of Ghostbur. Going back to Point 3 of ghost doesn’t exist, this would means Ghostbur doesn’t exist in this au. Which leads to Point 2 where you need a soul to resurrect another soul. If Ghostbur doesn’t exist, then who should Dream kills to resurrect Wilbur? Dream had only ever kill one person, and that’s Tommy. A soul for a soul; Tommy death’s for Wilbur’s resurrection.

ooh au time
Being a vigilante was against the law. The city had a real problem with it, so much that they’d gone past the ordinary police and given the heroes, L’Manberg’s best, authorization to arrest any they found on sight. Tommy was a hero. Or, a hero in training. He’d  been in the program for a year under the tutelage of Dream, and this was his first time being allowed to patrol on his own. So he was at a loss to find himself face to face with two of the city’s most notorious vigilantes, who didn’t seem to care that it was his job to arrest them.
No. In fact, they were trying to get him to join them.
“Listen,” Bee said. Brown curls stuck out from the top of his goggles and his voice changer gave his tone a weird buzzing effect. “How much shit do you see on the news every day in that fancy tower of yours? How much of it do you actually get to stop?”
Tommy crossed his arms. “We stop a lot of it, dickhead.”
“No, you don’t.” Lethe had a mask over the lower half of his face and around his eyes, but Tommy could see the way they crinkled into a smirk that said you don’t know shit. “You barely scratch the surface. All the heroes do is fight the flashy fights, the ones that get coverage with lots of collateral damage. What about the muggers? The dealers? The small gangs and corrupt politicians that pay your organization off? You guys don’t do anything to fight them. That’s why there’s so many vigilantes. You guys are the people that get recognized, but we’re the ones that care.”
“You think I don’t care?” Indignation rose, hot and writhing in Tommy’s throat. “I joined the heroes because I fucking care! I want to help people with my powers! I am helping them.”
“Why can’t vigilantes help, too?” Bee asked.
“Because you people don’t have boundaries.” That was Dream speaking now, every lecture he’d given Tommy, pacing back and forth in the empty conference room. He was not a warm man, Tommy’s mentor. Quite the opposite. But he was powerful and high ranking. Obviously he was good if he’d gotten where he had. “Heroes have the law to stop them from going too far. Vigilantes aren’t kept in check by anything.”
Apparently, that struck the wrong chord. Bee’s fists clenched, and he stepped forward. “When’s the last time you saw a vigilante kill someone?”
Tommy opened his mouth, only to find that not a single example came to his lips. 
“Exactly. I remember several people dying in the past month when the heroes showed up to play. Retro killed Wither just last week, if I’m remembering right?”
And yeah, that was true. But Karl had a good reason. That was what Dream said. Just like when Quackity killed Schlatt, and George killed Paralysis. But…
No. Tommy spoke that part aloud. “The heroes are good people.”
“We aren’t saying they’re not.” Lethe’s voice softened. “But they’re constricted and swayed by politicians in ways that Bee and I, and the people like us, aren’t. You haven’t been with them that long, but you’ve seen it, haven’t you?”
Tommy had. He remembered sinking down to the ground with his back against the door and his mask in his hands, hot tears streaming down his face because Sapnap had been telling the higher-ups for weeks that he knew Halo was planning an attack, and they’d told him––all of them––that they couldn’t pursue it. And then a block of apartment buildings had been burned down for no reason Tommy knew.
“You get it. I know you do,” Lethe said. “That’s why we’re asking for your help.”
He wasn’t doing this. He wasn’t. “What do you want?”
“Come patrol with us. You’ve got better resources. Help us fight everything the heroes aren’t. You won’t get recognition. Hell, you’re gonna get an arrest warrant, but you’ll be helping. If that’s what you really care about.” Bee tilted his head, and Tommy could feel his assessing gaze through his goggles. 
This was illegal. It was wrong. But at the same time, it wasn’t.
“I’ll do it.”
Bee took a step back, like he’d never expected Tommy to go along with it. “Oh.”
Lethe was more accepting. He stepped forward, offering his hand to Tommy. “That’s great, man. We’re gonna have to get you a second code name, though.”
Tommy grinned. “That won’t be a problem.”

Ran Dream SMP Through Danganronpa Simulator Because Boredom
The only thing I did was do 16 participants and 3 survivors. I came up with ultimates because those are fun to make. So here’s what was simulated!
Also nothing graphic if you’re worried about that
Participants
Some of the talents might not work because I don’t know enough but whatever
Ranboo- Ultimate Actor/Ultimate Hope because he would be the protagonist
Dream- Ultimate Speedrunner
George- Ultimate Hunter (There’s probably a better ultimate for him but I couldn’t think of one sorry)
Sapnap- Ultimate Pet Killer
Tommy- Ultimate Tower Builder
Tubbo- Ultimate Beekeeper
Philza- Ultimate Survivalist (the assistant character)
Technoblade- Ultimate Warrior
Wilbur- Ultimate Musician
Niki- Ultimate Baker
Eret- Ultimate King
Fundy- Ultimate Coder
Quackity- Ultimate Lawyer (changed it because an ask showed this made way more sense honestly)
Jschlatt- Ultimate American (the one who messes with the trial even though a lot of people probably do)
Bad- Ultimate Friend (way too nice to have to deal with this crap)
Skeppy- Ultimate Troll
The monokuma like figure would most likely be a wither because those are known for causing huge destruction in the SMP
Takes place in a Minecraft world but none of the SMP events happened.
Minecraft but they’re friends and haven’t killed each other in war
Chapter One
Victims: Fundy and Sapnap
Killer: Niki
JESUS CHRIST NIKI
ITS ONLY CHAPTER ONE THIS IS SOME CHAPTER THREE CRAP
I’ll admit some of the simulated stuff does not make sense
Some of them I can think of a reason for how it would happen
But killing two people in chapter one???
There goes the first member of the Dream Team
Fundy had the worst luck in a story, as usual
Poor Fundy
Chapter Two
Victim: Skeppy
Killer: Dream
Aka the Bad says fuck chapter
Also that one chapter where one character goes through the wringer
The ship sinking chapter
Poor Bad :(
Also we have removed the team and Dream from the Dream Team
It is now just George
Poor George too now that I think about it
This is Chapter Two and that’s always sad
Let’s face it Dreams execution would 100 percent be a manhunt that goes really wrong
Chapter 3
Victim: Jschlatt
Killer: Technoblade
FIRST SBI DOWN
Who would have thought the guy who goes by Blood God would kill somebody?
I am shocked
I do have a vague idea for this one
In that Jschlatt tried to kill Philza and Technoblade just happened to catch him
Him and the voices freaked out next thing you know Philza and Techno are stuck with a dead body
Philza was going to take the fall for it without telling Techno and tries to at the trial
Philza is weirdly unhelpful during the trial
But the truth does ultimately come out in what would be a very sad scene
Except Quackity who’s just mad at him
SBI angst ahoy
Wilbur is extra sad because he was also friends with Schlatt
Chapter 4
Victim: Tommy
Killer: Eret
Tubbo angst time yay!
We are now getting to where we start killing people who can bring optimism to the group
You know like Ibuki
SBI is down to two :(
Wilbur might put on a trench coat at this point
The most angsty way would be if Eret was trying to kill Tubbo because Tubbo was offered the motive of killing somebody in order to get him and one extra person out
As long as he didn’t get caught
So Tubbo sets up a trap but Eret finds out beforehand and goes to confront him
Tommy happens to see him going there and asks Eret what the fuck is he thinking about doing
Eret tells him what he thinks Tubbo is planning to do and Tommy obviously thinks it’s bullshit
He knows Tubbo would surely not
They start fighting and you know the rest
So the trial is basically working out two separate murder plans with Tubbo not even realizing Eret had been trying to off him
Tubbo feels extremely guilty and Wilbur would probably pretty pissed off at him
Philza is trying to make sure Wilbur stays alive and doesn’t go all crazy on everybody
Ranboo is trying to keep everyone optimistic with the help of Quackity and Bad
But this would be the groups lowest point in morale
In between chapter 4 and 5 you can’t do a Wilbur or Tubbo freetime
Chapter 5
Victim: Philza
Killer: George
Alright now the groups morale is in shambles
We’ve got one SBI and no more Dream Team
This feels like it would be a Gundham and Nekomaru situation
Due to whatever circumstances the two agreed to sacrifice themselves for the group
Their sacrifice does help raise morale after the trial
A little bit at least
Except for Wilbur who would probably be going through quite the rough mental patch at this point
As in how he was when he blew up L’Manberg
Quackity takes on the role of the assistant character after this
Chapter 6
Victim: Bad
Killer: Wilbur
Bad does the thing you should never do in the previous chapters
Get character development
He’s totally the one who went through an arc and it was done but you know there’s still a chapter left
Wilbur goes full on JD style crazy with a trenchcoat
There goes SBI
Tubbo can carry on the spirit of it
Survivors
Ranboo
Tubbo
Quackity
3/4 of the Buther Gang survived yay!
Idk who the mastermind and what the big twist would be
Best one would be Dr2 style where it’s a simulation so everyone’s alive
I’m just surprised most of the killings could actually be made to work
Would do executions but I don’t feel like it
Might add them later might not who knows

Chapter 11 (Completed)
Let me know if you wanna get tagged when I post new chapters in “These Streets Are Made For Walking”. @sleepysnails. Ao3 Link
————————
Bad grabbed everyone’s paperwork and filed them away into the sparkling red fold he had brought with him. He nodded to the officers, and thanked the receptionist as he signed all seven of his charges out of the station.
Then there was the matter of cars. Techno and Bad would be driving, but everyone was pissed at Purpled and people needed their space.
Tommy rode shotgun in Techno’s car and Purpled rode shotgun in Bad’s. Dream and Tubbo took Techno’s back seat, while Sapnap and George lounged in Bad’s. It wasn’t comfortable, but it would have to do.
Both cars were tangibly silent, but it’s for the better. Everyone in their own little world before they must all come together for dinner. None of them were quite ready for that.
They pulled up to the parking garage. The Taken brothers left first, and Techno could feel Tommy wanting him to wait.
“Techno?”
Techno tried to soften his tone, but not enough that Tommy would feel talked down to. “Yeah?”
“Nothing,” Tommy dismissed, going for the door handle. “It’s nothing. Go pick up Ranboo would you?”
“Yeah.”
Dream caught Techno’s eye through the glass and knocked on the hood of his car in solidarity.
Techno drove from Bad’s all the way up to Ranboo’s neck of the city. He slid into the cul de sac and looked at the house for a second. He really needed to chew out a man for not just paying the ransom; it would have saved a lot of people jail time.
Techno walked down the path, every step feeling just that extra bit out of place. He’s about to knock when the door goes flying open.
“Nope! Bye dad! Not dealing with you! Good night! I’ll be back tomorrow!” Ranboo slammed the door behind him. “Hi Techno. Thanks for saving me. Let’s go.” He grabbed the other boy’s wrist and dragged him back down the driveway.
Techno had just enough time to glance back and see the Richmons peering at them through their sidelight.
Ranboo opened the side door to get into the back in a rush and he slid in. “Who are you?”
Techno’s eyes flashed in panic and he quickly made his way around the car to make sure Ranboo was all ready. After a glance he let out a breath. He waved through the window and got into the driver’s seat. “Ranboo, Punz. Punz, this is Ranboo.”
“Why is he in your car?” Ranboo asked incredulously, having accepted that this must be Punz if Techno doesn’t care about the stranger in his car; hello?
“Needed a ride to Bad’s.”
“Why?” Ranboo asked, voice still on the rise.
“Family dinner.”
“Don’t you have your own car? Or the bus?” Ranboo asked.
“I was in town.”
“No,” Techno shut down.
“What?” Punz asked, smile apparent in his tone.
“No.”
Punz put his hands up. “I didn’t even do anything. Promise.”
“I get my best breakfasts when Tommy sleeps over. You aren’t going to Merc them.”
Punz crossed his fingers. “I’d never.” He smiled wide. “Dude, it’s been forever since I’ve been at Bad’s.”
“It’s been forever since I’ve seen you.”
“I’ve never seen you,” Ranboo piped up. “And I’ve known Purpled since the third grade.”
“Things happen kid. Promise Purpled has actually seen me since you’ve met him.”
“I hope so!”
Both Techno and Punz laughed good naturedly at Ranboo’s outburst.
“Thanks for keeping Purp sane,” Punz said in a moment of sincerity once the car started moving. “I don’t know what he’d do if it weren’t for you being the normal friend to keep him grounded.”
Ranboo shrugged. “He had me, and he still tried to join Las Nevadas.”
Punz smiled sadly. “Yeah, but he’d’a done that regardless, just took him a few more years to get the courage to take that leap ‘cause of you.”
“How?”
“Found Family. That’s what the gang is. You made him not lonely.”
Ranboo’s voice took on a sharper edge, “So you admit to making him loney?”
Punz put his hands up. “I said he’s seen me since you met him, not that he’d seen me often or even regularly.”
“You have issues.”
Techno snorted. “He’s a mercenary. Of course he’s got issues.”
“You let me sit in the back seat of your car with a killer?” Ranboo asked, his voice jumping approximately seven octaves.
Ranboo was sitting as far away from Purpled as he possibly could at the dinner table. This was the fullest he had ever seen it. Ten people, all crowded around a space made for four. At least there was enough food to feed about twenty.
“Purp. You didn't need Las Nevadas.”
“No,” Purpled agreed, looking down at his food and away from his brother.
“But even if Dream said yes, there was no way Techno would even consider letting me. And I know he doesn’t really have a say, but he’s the driver. And he’d just use that as a valid reason to not help. Which would put Dream in jeopardy,” he rambled. “And before you tell me I didn’t need that either. Yes. I did! You barely pay attention to me.”
“Purp.”
“Just wanted you to be proud of me.”
“Purp look at me.”
Purpled turned to his brother, making sure he was taking a bite into his homemade burger--this man was still his annoying older brother at the end of the day.
“I am proud of you. You make me proud every day. I’d just wish that you’d do other things if you wanted attention. You don’t need to be like me, and you shouldn’t be like me.”
Purpled chuckled. “It’s a little late for that. Already instilled that I should be like you. You’re cool.”
“He kills people!” Ranboo shouted.
“Not the time,” Sapnap shushed, eating his fries.
“But!”
“Hush.”
Ranboo shut up and dug into his meal quietly.
“How about competitive shooting?”
Purpled smiled. “You just want me close to Bad.”
“Of course I do. I trust Bad. Besides, I shoot. I’m really good at shooting. Shut up Ranboo, don’t start.” He pointed to the boy in question, but didn’t look away from his brother. “Could be fun.”
“Yeah. Might be. We’ll see what the court has to say about it.”
“Yeah. Hug for your big brother?”
“Hug for my big brother,” Purpled said, falling into his arms. “You know, this is the first time we’ve had dinner together in like two years.”
“Shit, I gotta fix that.”
“Mhm.” Purpled took another bite of burger. “I will win all the competitions.”
Dream ruffled Tubbo’s hair. “You did good kid; kept your friend safe.”
“Not really, we weren’t exactly messed with after the kidnapping.”
“Yeah, well Ranboo still had his spunk. He should be more traumatized than he is right now.”
“Don’t complain about that. He’ll be fine.”
“Thanks to you.”
“And Tommy,” Tubbo said, refusing to take the praise.
“Nope!” Tommy smiled wide. “You were calm and useful. I was just a bitch the whole time.”
“Tommy!”
“You did good Tubbo.”
“But--”
“No.”
Tubbo huffed. “Thanks Dream.”
Dream brought his little brother into his third hug of the night. “You did the best you could do, and that’s good.”
Tommy sighed dramatically. “Techno’s in shit, isn’t he?” he asked, turning to Ranboo who just shrugged. “Purpled said he was.” Tommy turned to face Techno directly. “Techno Blade. Are you in this shit?” he asked carefully, wanting a straight answer but hoping that his assumption was wrong.
“Tubbo has been trying to tell you all year that I’m Dream’s getaway driver. You just don’t listen to him.”
“Fuck!”
Ranboo pated Tommy’s head. “There’s a reason I’m the normal one in the friend group. I don’t have an older brother to be in the crime scene.”
Everybody stared at Ranboo. There were a few seconds of silence. Then everyone burst out laughing; rolling on the floor; holding stomachs; wiping tears from their eyes; the whole thing.
Once everyone had calmed down slightly, Bad spoke. “The school called. Even though Dream and Punz are emancipated they didn’t pick up the phone so the office called me. You boys have a week of homework to catch up on.”
“We were kidnapped,” Tommy bluntly stated.
“The school doesn’t care,” Techno said, snorting. “I got called to the office to collect it after school the other day.”
“Fuck you. Fuck that. Fuck this!”
Tommy and Techno were in his car driving back to the house the next morning.
“Techno?”
“Yeah Tommy.”
“You’re okay right?”
“Yeah.”
“You don't get in trouble?”
“Nope. Promise.” He crossed his heart with his free hand. “I promise I’m safe.”
Tommy held out his pinky.
Techno wrapped his around before Tommy could get to the prompting.
“I’m never joining you,” Tommy said very seriously.
“Never.”

Suffer the children - Crime au part 6
Sorry for such a long wait with this one guys, was really busy with school starting back up again but hopefully the next part wont take as long. Also I’m sorry but this is just angst, no happy things happen this chapter, or the next one for that matter. Comments are appreciated :) thank you again for all the support with this series.
part 1, part 5
Masterlist
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When it comes down to it, the state police know that the city doesn't really belong to them, it never did. Before it belonged to the smp, it belonged to techno, and before that it was a long list of unco-ordinated criminals that only ever lasted as long as the money did.
So when Wilbur took the option to demand an evacuation of the city, the police didn't give much resistance to his request. It was better to go along with what the man said rather than risk so many innocent lives. (the large sum of money Wilbur offered also helped to sway their opinion)
The only people that stayed were those who refused to leave, or l’manburg gang members who had agreed to help in the fight against the west side.
Most of the first day was spent calculating plans and looting stores in search of supplies. Tommy's leg was mostly healed by now, but Wilbur still insisted that he focus on physical therapy and refused to let him help with the looting or heavy lifting. 
( When Tommy disappeared late that night, Wilbur thought maybe the young boy had given up on the revolution altogether. And although he didn't  blame the lad for wanting to team with his mentor, he couldn't help but feel hurt by the thought. However he didn't expect Tommy to return just before sunrise with tear stained cheeks and a smile on his face, but he did appreciate the unexpected hug Tommy gave him before disappearing into his room without a word. Wilbur didn't bring it up in the morning and he could tell the boy was thankful)
By the second day of the three day grace period, team morale was low as they lay in wait, anxious for the smp’s promised warning.
The second day of looting commenced and Wilbur had allowed Tommy to join them ,as long as he used one of his crutches for support to let his leg rest a little.
Wilbur, Eret and fundy were waiting by the entrance of their headquarters for the two youngest members of the team, enjoying the blast of the cool air conditioning before they had to journey out into the blaring city heat.
“What's taking them so long.” Fundy complained as he lounged across the large leather sofa at the front of the headquarters. His head swayed off the side of the couch and towards Eret, he notices how he tapped his fingers impatiently against his thigh and continued to push his glasses further up his face. Maybe the older man was just nervous about the attack, Fundy didn't really blame him, he himself had been scratching at his clothes for days.
He watched Eret check the time on both his watch and his phone before fishing his car key out of his back pocket and throwing them into Wilbur's lap where he was busy checking supplies from his tablet.
“Get the car ready, I’ll go and round up the children.”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
George interrogates Dream as soon as he walks through the door. It's early and cold and Dream really doesn't want to deal with whatever scolding George is about to give him, so he walks through the apartment and tries to ignore his friend's presence.
“You gonna tell me where you've been.”
Dream stays silent and wanders around the kitchen.
“You went to see him didn't you.”
He doesn't question how he knows, George seems to know everything these days.
“We talked about this dream.”
George talked, dream just pretended to agree.
“Dream!”
“What, George!”
“Why are you being like this? Do you even give a shit about us?”
“What are you talking about! Of course I do George.”
“Then why are you having secret rendezvous with the enemy!”
“Tommy is not the enemy, None of them are our enemies.”
By now sapnap has emerged from his room rubbing at his tired eyes and dressed in a far less scary attire. “What's going on?”
“Nothing sapnap.”
“Dream is meeting up with Tommy!”
“What's your issue dude.” Dream is far too tired to keep his emotions at bay right now, so his voice sounds more angry than he intends. “Why can't you just trust me when I tell you something.”
“Wow okay really, you want to go there.”
“Guys.”
“Why are you protecting some dumb kid instead of everything we’ve worked so hard to get in the past how ever many years.”
“Because.”
“Because what dream!”
“It's complicated.”
“Come on guys.”
“It really isn't Dream. Just tell us. Tell us why you keep choosing them over us.”
“I am not choosing them.”
“Then why not just put them in their place.”
“I am not killing anyone to prove a point.”
“That's not what you said back in that police station.”
“This is different.”
“Guys.”
“How, how is it different.”
“GUYS”
“What sapnap!”
“Your phone’s ringing.”
“Okay and!”
“It's Eret.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Fundys eyes open he’s mostly confused, at first he thinks he’s fallen asleep on the couch waiting for Tubbo and Tommy, it wouldn't be the first time. But when he tries to move he feels his body resting on a hard surface, something a lot harder than their old leather couch.
In the distance he can hear sirens wailing and footsteps passing around him, as he comes too he feels Wilbur's presence appear next to him.
“-undy. Fundy are you okay.”
Now that he thinks about it, his head is a little sore.
“Fundy can you stand.”
He thinks he gives the older man a response and in an instant he's on his feet, just staring at the sight in front of him.
Black plumes of smoke rise up into the open air, flames creep up the inside walls and poke out of the crumbling roof, explosions erupt every few minutes and he feels starstruck from the sight of destruction. He can't move, he is both mesmerized and terrified of the sight before him. A long violent cough erupts from his chest and the illusion is broken, smoke creeps into his lungs and he can barely seem to gasp for air.
Wilbur rubs soothing circles across his back and it's not long before his chest clears. 
“What the hell is going on.”
Wilbur's hand leaves fundys back and he tears off some of his shirt and hands the rag to the other man, tearing off another piece for himself
“My guess is that this is the big warning dream promised.” Wilbur holds the piece of cloth over his nose and mouth and starts to head into the cloud of smoke. Fundy grabs his arm in disbelief.
“What are you doing!”
Fundy looks to his leader like he's a mad man before he remembers the two youngest members of the team were still inside, and Eret somewhere looking for them. Without another word fundy holds the cloth up to his face and ignores the unbearable warmth that attacks him from every direction. He doesn't have time to complain or stop to worry about what might happen to him or Wilbur, all he can focus on is finding his friends and getting them out alive. Even as the flames climb around them and the smoke grows thicker, his mantra stays the same.
They have to find them, they have too.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tubbo can't stop coughing and he feels like he's in the warehouse all over again.
 He tries to gasp for breath but he can't hold it long enough before he splutters it back out again. He doesn't know what's going on apart from the fact that he can't breathe. 
For a while all he can do is cough, until he feels someone slip something over his head and he gasps for air without coughing. The air is still hot and sticky and he can still smell the harsh scent of smoke clogging his nostrils, but he can breath nonetheless. 
He’s still thoroughly confused but he registers that there is now someone with him, he tries to look at them through the mask but his eyes are all watery and he doesn't really know what direction they're in.
“’m Cnfusd.”
He manages to mutter out, but his voice sounds all muffled, like he's been buried under a big pile of blankets. He thinks whoever it is hears him because soon a large pair of arms wrap around him and whoever it is holds him for a while, sure it's hot and his chest still hurts, but he thinks its a nice gesture and he plans to thank whoever it is when he's back to his usual self. 
Tubbo blinks a few times in the strangers embrace and his eyesight is a little better now so when he pulls away he tries to look at the mystery hugger and finds a familiar face looking back at him.
“Ert?”
He's wearing one of the gas masks they had taken from one of the stores they looted yesterday and he thinks that's what Eret must have put on him. He can see the older man looking at him frantically, he's not sure if he should be saying something or not, but he's caught off guard by a loud muffler to his left.
He can see through the hot mask that it's Tommy, His friend coughs and splutters like Tubbo had and Eret rushes towards him and slips a gas mask on his face. With the help of Eret he watches Tommy stand and mumble something at him, he feels mean ignoring Tommy but he really can't make out what the other boy is saying. So he stays silent and hopes he can make it up to him later.
Tommy sways and he still doesn't really know what's happening or why Eret and Tommy keep looking at him strangely, but they're all together now so he feels a bit better, even if his head does hurt a little.
He hears a muffled explosion go off somewhere and he looks between his two friends who seem to be just confused as he is.
None of them realize what's happening before it's too late, the last thing Tubbo sees is Eret reaching for him before the ground crumbles beneath them.

Egotober 2021 Ch. 24: The Eyes Have It
Summary: The Server has a unique tool in their arsenal, the Eye Orbs that they use to teleport around town and avoid their enemies and rivals. And they get these orbs in interesting ways.
Prompt: Eye (Eyes)
Characters: Eret, Bad, and Ranboo
Chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31
The Server “found” the orbs long before Ranboo joined the Server. Dream and Sam came into their little ramshackle basement hideout with five of them in the early days of the Server’s creation. George and Sapnap were napping on the couch when suddenly Sam had almost killed himself teleporting through the wall, and violently woken them up.
Years passed and most of the Server was never sure how Dream and Sam first got their hands on the orbs. They were rare at first, only used as emergency backups. Even during the turbulent year when Dream was fighting with Tommy and Wilbur for dominance in the Server.
Then Tubbo came up into the Server building, from the basement tech rooms, fresh after the entire gang had moved to Florida, he saw Ranboo for the first time, walking down with Dream from his office.
Ranboo had been jumpy and nervous and Tubbo had taken pity on him, seeing an older version of himself, and showed him around the town. But Ranboo’s admittance into the Server had an added benefit. Suddenly everyone had access to the orbs. Tubbo went from having empty pockets from using his last backup to suddenly having six in his pockets and not sure what to do with them.
Which was the newest problem for Tubbo: Dream needed Ranboo within arm’s length. He made no secret of it. Because those orbs started coming in handy against Dark, the heroes, and the cops.
Ranboo was a linchpin in the Server, and no one outside the Server knew that yet . . . and Tubbo wanted it to remain that way. So he agreed to Dream’s terms, which entailed Dream getting amounts of Ranboo’s aura.
Every other week Tubbo would run some of Ranboo’s aura directly to Dream, and Dream would keep making the eye orbs as the Server needed them.
Ranboo, of course, didn’t like it when Tubbo snuck away to go and meet with Dream. Tubbo was getting relatively good at sneaking away, even with Ranboo in tow.
Tubbo didn’t like it when Ranboo came with him, but even though he’d only been able to dodge Ranboo a couple of times, Ranboo always tried to follow him to the meeting.
So often Ranboo waited outside the Server building while Tubbo was in there, talking to Dream. Normally he would be in there for about ten or so minutes, and then the two would go home. Usually he waited on his own, sometimes on his phone or reading his Memory Book to make sure he wasn’t forgetting something important.
Tonight he was reading in his book for about five minutes when Bad walked out.
“Ranboo, hi,” Bad smiled as he walked out, Eret practically slid out of the door. “You little muffinhead, I didn’t know you were even out here. Why didn’t you come in to say hi?”
“Well, I didn’t think we’d be here long enough,” Ranboo told him as Eret walked over and smiled at the teen.
“How’s life treating you?” Eret asked. “Treating Tubbo right?”
“Y-Yeah, always,” Ranboo responded.
“Good, good, glad to hear,” Eret smiled. “You two ever need Dream off your back, just say it.”
“Uh, yeah,” Ranboo clutched his book to him. “Thanks.”
“So,” Eret pumped their shoulder against Ranboo’s, “When did you and Tubbo get a kid?”
Ranboo’s eyes began darting around, “Uh, what?”
“Come on, I saw that little tyke at that mess of a wedding,” Eret smiled. “They yours? Tubbo’s? Or did you pull a Philza and find them in some box in the road?”
“The third one’s closer,” Ranboo admitted
“Ehh,” Eret smiled, flashing a sharp smile. “That little scamp! Phil taught him well.”
“Yeah,” Ranboo quickly agreed.
“The little fella reminds me a lot of Sap when he was a baby,” Bad sighed, eyes in some distant memory.
“Pfft, I’ve seen Sapnap’s baby pictures,” they physically bounced in fingers in air quotes, “and that kid was no baby when he split off screaming and setting things on fire.”
“He was adorable,” Bad defended.
“He was six, you were twelve, and he was and still is a gremlin,” Eret grinned, the atmosphere changing from Michael to something else made Ranboo a touch more comfortable.
“Hey, you shut your muffining mouth,” Bad self-censored. “He was adorable.”
“Yeah, sure buddy, sure,” Eret rolled their eyes.
“You better be fucking nice to him,” Tubbo came out of the Server, Dream closing the door after him.
Bad gasped, “Tubbo, someone outta[1] wash your mouth out with soap!”
“Try it,” Tubbo dared. He looked at Ranboo, “Come on, buddy, let’s go.”
“Yeah, good idea,” Ranboo was quick to follow after him.
“Hey, Ranboo, before you go,” Eret spoke up, stopping both of the teens.
Before Ranboo could make a sound, Eret pulled out a bag with ten orbs clinking around inside of it. The orbs were not visible, but Ranboo could feel his aura close by.
Eret threw the bag and Ranboo lunged to catch it, unsure what to do with it.
“Take ‘em[2] back, I’ve been doing this demon stuff way longer than anyone here combined, I don’t need ‘em[2],” Eret lowered his sunglasses to look at them. “And Tubbo, you ever want to change your contract, just give me a call. I know I’m not the lawyer between us, but I’m sure I could help Dream change his mind.”
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Tubbo said, continuing to glance at Ranboo, to make sure he was okay.
“Thanks,” Ranboo told him, the teen taking out an orb to look at it. The iris was mostly green with red flakes in it. Then it placed it back in the bag.
With that the two of them left, Eret watching them go, she didn’t speak until the teens were out of ear and eye shot.
“We gotta[3] have an agreement on this, Bad, you and Skeppy have to stop using those eyes, full stop.” Eret warned.
“We’re trying, it’s just Dark makes it really hard,” Bad sagged almost his entire body.
“You leave Ent to me, we’ve got some rapport still,” Eret told him. “Just use your magic, you two have a lot, use it.”
“Fine,” Bad groaned and Eret watched him trudge back into the Server.
Eret left to start heading towards the north portion of the city where he knew Dark was hanging around. They had some things to talk about.

Them being mixtapes are a great idea, what if after Tommy gets drunk initially, dream gets dared to steal them, so he does, then he forgets that he has them and when Tommy Wakes the next morning he's in a panic bc The Mixtapes!! - 💙
Yeah! Something like that could work. 
I have two ideas, one of them I came up with during Spanish class, and the second one I came up with right now. 
Idea A.
My original idea is based off of the fact that Tommy like a week after he is told not to hang out with Dream anymore, goes and sneaks out to hang out. 
So, about two weeks after the party Tommy gets a text from either Purpled (who’s parents have no clue about the party) or Dream saying that ‘the gang’ was going to be hanging out at this abandoned bridge Karl found a while ago when he was driving around the town. So, Tommy, being the dumb fucking teenager he is, sneaks out his window with just his phone and a really thin jacket, and heads to the fucking abandoned bridge. 
So, like, it’s really cool lets not lie here. Like its an abandoned bridge, and a bunch of teenagers ranging from 15 to 19, are just sitting on it, legs dangling and shit. Here comes Dream doing some whack-ass parkour, and Big Q walking on the edge. I mean - lets not lie here either, Tommy is doing some dumb-ass parkour shit too, hanging from ledges and shit (no wonder Wilbur wants Tommy to stay the fuck away from the Dteam they encourage Tommy’s dumb shit). 
Enter BIG Q the resident family pothead. (this is Big Q the character we are talking about - and more so Big Q the character in this specific au, even though Big Q the character is also probably a pothead, not Quackity the person k cool). Anyways, so while they are all busy endangering their lives atop this ginormous abandoned bridge, Big Q is just chilling, smoking a joint. It gets passed around a couple times, just cause they were chilling at like 2 am in the morning - and what can I say, they are sleep deprived teenagers, they are gonna do some stupid shit.
Anyways, during all of this, they are playing truth or dare, and half way through Tommy just passes out leaning on Dream - because they are like best friends pog. So, then Dream gets a dare to steal Tommy’s mixtapes, because George saw Tommy listening to them on the way here. All of the boys know how much the mixtape means to him, and they really just want to see his reaction, but when Tommy woke up like 30 minutes later, he just gets up and stumbles home because he is cold and tired and really fucking hungry. 
So Enter Thomas Innit. Coming home at 3am, just straight through the front door because he is high out of his mind, and having a great time. Phil - who is the one who caught him - doesn’t catch on straight away because he doesn’t know the symptoms of being high, and lets not lie here, Tommy is really good at getting out of shit. (flashback to that one time he convinced niki to drown instead of niki convincing Tommy not to). 
What Phil does notice though, is that Tommy is wearing someone else’s jacket. 
It’s SapNap’s varsity jacket. 
So Tommy starts getting a lecture about sneaking out at night and how he was not supposed to hang out with Dream or SapNap, or that group of boys, until he is ungrounded. (did I mention that Phil definitely grounded Tommy for going to that party). Not to mention that he left the house when he was grounded; like Tommy what the hell? 
But then Wilbur comes downstairs because he is an awfully light sleeper and hears the commotion downstairs. Tommy, who is already kind of angry because he was having a really good time with his friends, and he knows that Purpled isn’t getting this lecture - and that Tubbo is still asleep - not to mention he really just wants to fucking eat. 
So, he pushes past Phil to get to the chip cabinet when Wilbur enters. He looks confused at first, but then spots the jacket. Wilbur is just getting ready to fucking kill someone when Phil pulls him aside and tells Wilbur that he had already given a lengthy lecture, and that he should lay off Tommy for the night. 
Wilbur begrudgingly agrees, only because he knows that lectures from Phil are the worst. So, he sits at the counter, and asks Tommy to hand him a bottle of water when he sees that his brother is snacking on the chips. Sure, Tommy takes a good minute to react, but Wilbur put that aside to sleepiness as it was 3am in the morning. 
As soon as Tommy turned around though, Wilbur’s anger shot through the roof. I mean, Wilbur could tell. He had spent enough time with Schlatt half-high trying to make out with Wilbur, to know what being high looked like - and that look was on his fucking 15-year-old brother. He could see it with the red-rimmed eyes, and the far off look, not to mention that Tommy had never been that relaxed in his life. 
He quickly stood up, almost knocking his stool to the ground, and grabbed Tommy by the chin to look at his face.
Phil: “Wilbur what are you doing? I already told you that I gave Tommy a lecture. Just let him eat -”  Wilbur: “Are you fucking high right now?” (I feel as though it is important to mention that Wilbur like growls this)  Phil: “What?” (you know how phil says this) Tommy: *like a moody teenager, gritting through his teeth* “No.”  Wilbur: “You’re fucking high.” He laughs, “Who the fuck gave you weed?” Tommy: “I don’t know. It was passed around! Can I have my chin back bro, I’m fucking hungry.”  Wilbur: “No you can’t ‘bro’. Why the fuck did you smoke weed?”  Tommy: “Why not? You hang with stoners.”  Wilbur: “Schlatt has smoked a couple times, I wouldn’t call him a stoner. And also, he’s fucking legal! He is 18 years old!”  Tommy: “Well Big Q is 18 too!” Wilbur: “So it was Quackity then? I’m gonna beat the shit out of him.” Wilbur goes to storm off, but Phil stops him.  Phil: “Both of you calm down!” Phil sighs rubbing his temple. “Tommy we are going to fucking talk about this in the morning. But, I’m not going to let you kill a Junior Wil. We will sort this out tomorrow. I know you aren’t happy, and I’m not either, but the kid is probably high out of his fucking mind right now, I’m not going to let you take advantage of that.”  Wilbur: He brushes Phil’s hand off of his shoulder, storming into the living room. “Fine. I’ll beat him up when he is sober. It’ll be funner anyways.” 
Tommy just storms up to his room, pissed that he didn’t get to finish his the rest of his chips, when his phone buzzes. 
It’s a text from Purpled asking if Tommy knows where he put his shoes. Tommy stifles a laugh, trying hard not to fucking wheeze - the weed wasn’t making this easy on him - but decides to throw his phone across the room, and faceplant onto the bed, hoping that tomorrow would never come. 
Let’s just say that Techno is mildly confused when he waked up the next morning to Wilbur pacing the room, and Phil tiredly drinking his third cup of coffee - chip bad thrown on the counter. 
And the mixtapes? Well, Tommy doesn’t know their missing. And Dream? He fucking forgets he has them. 
Idea B.
Dream steals the mixtapes on a dare the night of the party. 
Tommy doesn’t notice that he doesn’t have them the first few days. He is really, really just focused on the fact that he is upset at Wilbur. 
I mean, he tries hard not to be, because Wilbur came and picked him up from a party where he would’ve probably sat in just pure pain for the rest of night. He might’ve found safety in one of Dream’s guest bedrooms, or even in Dream’s loft bed - but he most likely would’ve crashed at Tubbo’s and he couldn’t deal with Eret’s rant right then. 
He loved Tubbo’s brother - sure, but he knew that if his own brothers saw the pain he was in, they would quit the lecturing for the night and just try to help him. 
He was right too. They helped him into the house, and stayed up with him when he threw up all night, and had a massive headache. They gave him Tylenol and tums, and dimmed all of the lights. Tommy wasn’t upset that he called his brothers no - but he wouldn’t be a teenage boy if he wasn’t irrationally angry at Phil for grounding him. 
He spent most of his time in his room, listening to music, or sneaking Tubbo through the window. Tubbo wasn’t fucking grounded - but then again, Tubbo barely had a few drinks of beer, and Tommy had uh - a few cans. 
In the long run, his brothers ended up being less angry with him and more angry at Dream for giving him the beer - which really didn’t make sense in Tommy’s mind due to the fact that he was the one who drank it, and he was the one who snuck out to the party in the first place. But, he guessed that it was the perks of being their baby brother, they could never really stay mad at him. 
But after a few days, he went to look for the tapes, and they were fucking gone. He didn’t know how to tell Wilbur - he couldn’t face Phil or Techno knowing that he lost his most prized possession. 
He came into Wilbur’s room bawling at like midnight one night, and Wilbur - who had no clue what was going on - just had to comfort his little brother. Through choked sobs Wilbur learnt that he had lost the tapes, and that he was ‘so, so, sorry wil. I don’t know how it happened, they were in my backpack when I got there.’ 
And what does Dream do with the disk? Well you’re gonna have to find out I guess.

Brothers anon back again after like a week, sorry about that. But as a sorry I worked out a bit more with the Great SMP town! Also idk if you know but the Brothers au link is broken on your pinned post, I tried using it to skip to the questions I had yet to answer and it didn't work. 
1: The idols people could choose from where Technoblade, Sapnap, George, Ranboo, Bad, Fundy, Karl, Phil, Tommy, Tubbo, Sam, Wilbur, and Eret. People who choose Technoblade or Sam often become the guards of Mizu and those who keep laws inforced. The difference between following Technoblade or Sam is, for Technoblade you focus purely on fighting and less about laws, you also learn more about history. While for Sam you focus much more on laws and even restraining and helping people (If its confusing think of Sam followers as the police and Technoblade followers as SWAT). Technoblade followers are also sometimes called to provide protection during resource gathering missions. For Karl you tend to learn story tellings and study writings, Karl followers are also the main librarians and take care of books and preserve them. Sapnap and Phil followers are the people who go on supply missions or runs, though for Phil you learn how to address wounds and further study most things. While for Sapnap you further study monsters and their weaknesses, along side where they most commonly spawn. George followers tend to study architecture and tend to be the architectures of Mizu, designing new sections of the city and planning out where stuff goes, their also the people who handle stuff like ventilation and supply of water and checking damages on almost anything. Eret followers study history like many other idol followers, but unlike the others they focus solely on history and laws, they tend to be the leaders of Mizu and the ones who organize basically everything. Bad followers study and learn psychology and reward and consequences situations, while Eret followers make the decisions, Bad followers are also great helps and a very important part of what's basically The Council, as they study and guage how actions will affect the city and provide their input. Wilbur followers of course learn entertainment, like they learn how to play instruments, how to write and play in plays, some even make games! Tommy and Tubbo aren't actually common idols, their referred to as "Mix" idols most of the time, as the people who pick them typically have a wide range of skills and interests that just don't fit in any other idols. So Tommy and Tubbo followers really just go through a college type thing, where they learn a wider range of things than any other idol follower, those followers tend to pick up basically whatever job they want. Tubbo differs slightly though as Tubbo followers can focus a little bit more in a certain field than Tommy followers, which can allow Tubbo followers to often be picked or asked for help for things like building, or recording history, though they CANT be used to help Technoblade or Sam followers, and can't be chosen to go on supply runs or missions. Than Ranboo followers are similar to Karl's, in which they are the librarians and study writings, but they are also the main recorders of history and are tasked with writing down what happens every single day. 
These are the things some idols share, Technoblade, Phil, Sapnap, Sam, and Eret followers all study weapon and armour formations and how to make them. All idol followers learn at least some history of what their learning and their own idols. Bad and Phil followers tend to be the doctors in Mizu. And every idol has one representative in The Council.
2: Its how he shows that theres no hard feelings against the other person, and that he has already completely forgiven the other person. He continues to gently prank the other person until the person either also says that they forgave Grievous or that they show their comfortable around him again. Jackie and Cletus found the situation incredibly funny and laughed hard when it first happened. Watson just kinda watched it all play out with his amused father face but also was ready to step in if it seemed like Grievous went to far. 
3: Benjamin has a lot of life experience in stressful situations, which allows him to relay on pass experiences in a great multitude of situations. And he's just a very calm person. So he's able to just handle the situations better than anyone else. 
8: It was Jackie's birthday when Levi gave him alcohol, Jackie was tired and Levi gave him it, telling him it would keep him awake and make it easier to talk with everyone. Jackie did drink it and got a bit tispy before Watson figured out what happened and stole it away from Jackie, then going and hitting Levi. 
Almost everything from the SMP was lost due to time and weather, the buildings still remain, although crumbling and ruined and many things are missing from them, but a few things (like weapons, books (although heavily weather worn), discs) did survive and are somewhere in the world. The town in the Greater SMP does have 2 weapons, Orphan Obliterator, and Dreams Nightmare sword, and have the original copy of Ranboos memory book. People knew it was there at first, many visited and a few attempted to even preserve everything, but over time, other stuff happened. New kingdoms popped up, with quite a few claiming that the history of the SMP was just made up, a cleverly devised story and since at this time its been a decade or two since the SMP fell, and people just aren't as into it or studied the history as much, they believed them. So people stopped visiting, and everything fell into ruin. Only the town in the SMP grounds still believe and study the SMP, but their often called the idiots of the world for what they do. 
Jackie gets hurt after he jumps about and accidentally steps on a magma block, Charles gets distracted by worrying over Grievous after he got shot that he isn't paying attention and almost falls into a lava pool before Ran saves him, and Cletus gets to cocky and gets hit by a wither skeleton before Watson has to come in and save him. By the end everyone is whining and saying how they regret it as Ran tells them off for not following what he said and how he said they weren't ready. They find a bastion and fortress! They find the fortress first and Watson, Cletus, and Grievous go in to grab blaze rods after Watson basically freaks out about blaze rods and won't shut up about getting some for potions. And after Cletus gets hit by the skeleton they rush to a nearby bastion they saw to barter with the Piglins for the cure. But after they get it they stay behind and continue to trade as Watson teaches them about Piglins. 
10: I'm thinking of adding maybe mind control or hallucinations to the battle. With Ranbob being so close to Dream again, and even though he'd tried so hard to break Dreams control in him, Dream is still able to control Ranbob to some degree. Causing him to have hallucinations during battle of him killing his family again and Ran trying to kill him. While for Ran, Dream manipulates him, trying to get him to believe that this all is still Ranbobs fault, and how Ranbob doesnt care about him or anyone, and only cares for himself. Basically he's trying his last ditch attempt to separate the two so he can get his puppet back, and get rid of a annoying nat (in his opinion) in the process. 
13: A lot of people know of him being the General actually. But it only matters to people who actually fight in the Pit, as again its merely a fighting title. Not many people have been able to beat him, only 2 have actually been able to bet him and win whatever the prize was when they competed, but those people also choose to not take the general title. But they've said it was very hard to beat Jackie with his speed and him being able to do whatever he wants basically. Jackie, Ran, and Watson are all at some part on par, they share similar fighting moves and tatics which are obviously shared in battle. But other than a few shared tatics, their not considered on par at all. They do! The Corporal fights first, Sergeants go next, then the General. 
14: A few times Ranbob tried to break off from the group and head back to Mizu, but every time someone caught him, weither it be Charles or Cletus or even Jackie, and were able to bring him back home. Talking to him and talking him through the whisper episode, keeping him calm and in charge of his mind.
Nice to have you back, Brothers Anon! I tested the link, and it worked fine, so I think it might’ve been one time, but I went ahead and re-linked it, so I hope it works for you now.
1: Honestly sounds cool. I call studying Karl! With all the different builders, Mizu sounds like a beautiful place. What would you say some of it looks like? Any special areas? And also, the Council? What’s that? I assume they’re the leaders, but is that all they do? Do they make decisions over everything, or are they divided for certain areas, like farming and education? Does every idol have a representative, or are their multiple under one for the Council?
2: Aww. That’s actually kind of sweet. Grievous gently pranks people to show affection. I like that, anon, I really do.
3: What kind of situations?
8: Levi! You should be ashamed of yourself! Bad person, bad!
That’s really interesting, actually. Was there a reason people claimed it was just made up, or did it just happen? Also, do any of the gang realize Nightmare is Dream’s sword? Does Dream try to get one of them to bring it back?
And SMP town isn’t believed? Were they never in contact with Mizu?
Honestly, all those injuries were about what I expected. Charles was worrying over Grievous? Just general concern, or have they forged a friendship? How’s Ranbob faring with the whole ‘two of my idiots just about died’ thing? He strikes me as a worrier. 
Do they have fun, at least once it’s all over? What kind of potions do they up and brew? Do they just sit down and experiment with all their supplies for a bit, and see what happens? Does Ran commandeer it all?
10: Oof. That’s gonna hurt. If Dream has that power, why didn’t he use it before, to force to fishermen to give Ranbob back? Did they have some sort of protection against it? Does it only work for certain people? Also, if I may ask, why is Dream so vested in Ranbob? Surely he could get another puppet, eventually? Is there a particular reason, or is it more of a ‘I worked way too hard on this one to give it up now’ kind of thing? Is Ran the nat? If so, what’s his opinion of all the others? 
13: Huh. So Jackie’s pretty strong, then. In what way are they not considered on par? Is one considered stronger than the other? Faster? Is Jackie considered stronger than them aside from shared tactics, or is it the other way around? Also, can there only be one Corporal and two Sergeants, or is it simply because those were the only ones to catch Porkius’ eyes.
14: Oh, so this happened during the road trip? Jackie even got involved? How did the gladiators react to Ranbob trying to bolt for Mizu randomly? How far has Ranbob gotten? Was it ever far enough to seriously concern the fishermen? Does bringing him back ever get physical an evolve into a fight, or does he usually stay pretty docile during it?

okay but-- SBI Outsiders AU?? I feel like there's such potential.
We've got Tommy as Ponyboy, ofc because he's the youngest of everyone and sort of embodies Pony's scrappiness and his want to be like a big man and part of the gang.
Then we have Wilbur as Darryl Curtis and he's trying to keep the family together. The stress has made him a little strict and snappier (aka Pogtopia!Wilbur arc) and some of that is taken out on Tommy until the runaway scene.
Okay and Techno as Soda -- He dropped out of his first year in Uni bc he needed to work and help out w/ bills. He's a little closer to Wilbur since he's older but both him and Tommy are kinda distant anyways since their father left/died and Wilbur forgot how to keep being a brother and sort of shifted to stressed-dad-mode. Also I know Soda is supposed to be like a hot-movie-star dude but I think itd be funny for girls to still be like simping over Techno and he's just too socially awkward. (We'd also give Techno's/Soda's girlfriend to Wilbur for the angst of Wilbur having to break up with her because he's so far in dad-mode than he should be that he feels like he has to put all his attention on his brothers).
Okay then we have Tubbo as Johnny -- I think the Pony + Johnny dynamic fits Clingyduo pretty well. Even though Johhny is older than Pony, he's sort of adopted into the gang as like more softer because Tommy tries hard to act tougher than he is (they all know who's the youngest at the end of the day though ). And so we have like Tubbo going off with Tommy after the climactic fight between Tommy and Wilbur (that's when Wilbur hits him sort of on accident).
And hear me out on this one - Schlatt as Dally. He takes better to Tubbo than the whole gang and has a bad rap (just like how Dally liked Johnny the best). When Tubbo stabs that one guy for almost drowning Tommy in the fountain, they go to Schlatts to get help and stuff. (Also, if you kill Tubbo off at the end like in the book, then you have the angst of Schlatt getting himself killed at the end too.)
That's all of the concrete stuff I have but here's some more looser ideas:
- Dream as Steve because Steve always seemed to be standoffish towards Ponyboy/Tommy but gets along with Techno (RivalsDuo anyone?)
- alternatively Dream as Randall or whatever the leader of the Socs was called. Tries to drown Tommy in the fountain during the park scene. Stabbed by Tubbo. That would make Sapnap/George/whoever else also Socs and they'd be rivalling the Greasers/Tommy and the rest
- or even if you put george or Sapnap as the guy that gets killed so that Dream can face off in the final rumble.
- Niki as Cherry??? Idk why I like this so much
- WAIT WHOSE THAT GUY WHO IS LIKE COMEDIC RELIEF
- OKAY QUACKITY AS TWO-BIT (I THINK THATS HIS NAME???) IT FITS V WELL
anyways this post ended up longer than I meant but tell me your thoughts!!
