I have a love hate relationship with the name pandoras vault.
On the one hand it’s so cool! My first thought when hearing it was that it’s so clever, and I love mythology references (plus the continuation with ‘Theseus’ is rly nice)
But it also does the exact same thing that the fandom does to c!dream. The metaphor of the name directly compares him to the embodiment of all evil; and suggests that anyone who lets him out would be a fool, who is putting everyone else in grave danger. The contents of the original pandoras box weren’t people capable of change, they were instead concepts.
Burning hot take:
I’m not usually one for pain olympics, but since people keep saying that c!dream’s actions towards others are justification for his torture I gotta say it.
The prison is worse that exile
I somewhat disagree, as trauma is subjective- however I absolutely agree that the prison is a clear escalation. And even if exile was ‘worse’ that doesn’t make any further mistreatment okay!
if someone uses all pronouns that does not mean you choose the ones you decide best suit them.
Yes this is about how I’ve only seen she/her used for Eret a handful of times.
maybe it isn’t healthy for kids in this fandom to hear almost everyone dismiss sh as ‘just for attention’??
You’re back! I missed your posts, have a flower 🌻
Thank you for the flower! I missed being here also (well I missed posting,, I may have been lurking just a tad)
i refuse to use the tags/terms ‘apologist’ or ‘sympathiser’ because no one knows what the fuck they even mean
can we get some context for that last one buddy wym your mums a dreamnap truther???
I was telling her about how Dream and Sapnap are roommates and she just gave me a look, and said super sarcastically that 'yeah they're just friends'
In her defence the last time I told her about two guys who made comedy and gaming content online and were also roommates it was dan and phil so,,
This is also the woman who, when I showed her dream manhunt fanart on twitter in the outfit, she exclaimed 'look at his tits!' and then following it up by saying he could be trans and that we should be supportive.
I love my mum so much <3
Anytime someone dehumanises c!dream I love him even more out of spite
your posts are always a pleasure to read!
i love it when you use irl information to further your point :D i never know when i might learn something new!
your shorter posts are also amazing, you never need too many words to make it super angsty :') /pos
never be afraid to reach out, we love you here <3 /p
thank you so much?!! doing research is so much fun, and I end up learning so much as well!! strangely enough my main aim with most posts is to make people sad,, spreading c!dream angst brings me joy. I've even been working up the confidence to post non dsmp content, and I feel like I have interesting things to say
i propose that no one is allowed to have an opinion on pandoras vault unless they’ve done some reading on prison abolition/reform
‘C!dream is a master manipulator!’
Is he really though?? He managed to get himself locked in a literal torture vault?? He didn’t realise punz was going to betray him, he alienated all of his allies.
Either c!dream isn’t great at the whole manipulation thing, or some of that was intentional
