Luz thinks they are slowly getting along but in reality they don't.
They try their best though.
funfact! I think this is the first time I’ve drawn Amity.
she used to be my favorite but then… Hunter happened.
if you saw the version of this post with palismen misspelled, no actually you didn’t
dogboy the beloved but I decided to study the twewy artstyle a bit bc I simply think its based and poggers.
something i think people tend to gloss over in ranboo's character is that he lies.
like, he lies! little white lies, he lies by omission, he straight up doesn't tell the goddamn truth. he twists it around into what people want to see/hear. he's actually a pretty manipulative character- not to the extent of say, quackity or wilbur, but he is. he is NOT innocent.
now, that's not to say he's a bad person. he's a person trying very hard to be good and by consequence, doing some shady things. it doesn't mean he's morally awful, just that he's struggling (which people are often wont to do)
he's smarter than people give him credit for. stop underestimating him, especially as he gets closer to unlocking the truth within himself.
/rp *lays down in the grass* sam was the first ever person to visit tommy in exile, and left to make sure tommy was okay as soon as he found out it was happening. sam spent literally 20 minutes searching for him and spying on his conversations with dream and ghostbur. he was even spotted by dream and escorted all the way back home, but then went back and made the journey again as soon as dream was gone. this was before the path to logstedshire in the nether had been created. he offered to hide tommy from dream if tommy felt like he needed it. and then that very same night, dream approached sam and commissioned him to build pandora’s vault, redirecting his attention away from tommy
lift you up every time everyone pulls away (x)
Ooooo okay overall thoughts on what Tommy did on stream today? As someone who’s been around for a while I’d love to hear your thoughts :)
Anon, you have sparked a ramble because I love talking about meta shit like this. Be warned and also thank you >:)
So...
Remember this?
And this?
And this?
One thing that makes Dream SMP alive is the constant change. Nothing is permanent, nothing is sacred. As much as it hurt, the New L'manburg Festival's impact came from seeing the Community House, which everyone thought for so long surely couldn't be destroyed, in ruins.
Even before then! It was strange to see the old Community House everyone loved go when Dream, Sapnap and George remodeled it after the Reddit post.
But, you know Quackity's second Las Nevadas stream? Do you remember what made that flashback scene so, so impactful when you first saw it?
The fact that, before anything else gave away that it was a flashback, before you saw the black walls of L'manburg cluing you in, you saw this:
Nothing in those pictures looks like it does today. The instant you see that, you know it’s the past. And when you finally saw the walls, it was all the more impactful from that build-up.
Where Purpled's Walmart once stood, Puffy's Targay stood next. Jack Manifold's Tesco in the sky above it was destroyed a long time ago. And now there's room for something else.
Where Fundy's Socializing Club once stood, Ponk's essential oils shop stood. And now there's room for something else.
The Community House has been blown up multiple times. Even Dream's bedroom underneath it was taken out in the explosion from Fundy's prank.
Where Skeppy's house once stood, Bad and Skeppy's mansion now stands.
Tommy's house has changed faces so many times, it hasn't been the original since July of last year.
Ponk's casino was built on land that used to be taken up by Sam's little castle from when he rejoined the server after his hiatus.
Eret's museum had room made for it by taking down an old frame of a build that was never finished.
The original Camarvan, as iconic as it was, was taken down only a few days after the L'manburg War!
Eret's entire tower -- yes, this tower
was completely destroyed, top to bottom. Entirely demolished. (Thanks, Fundy)
There are a few cases where it definitely hurts. Alyssa's house is the last remnant of the lake area from the early days, one of the very few builds from that time still standing. Wilbur's ball house is the one remaining marker we have of his time on the server from before L'manburg. Those, I think, I would be genuinely sad to see go. The ones where they’re the only remnant of that time, y’know?
But the gingerbread house? That's only been here since December, man, and it takes up so much room. Targay's only been there since November and it had already replaced another build before it. This is a lot more room to build, some much-needed change on the Prime Path tbh.
I was sad to see the CRY sign go a while back purely because it made angsty lore 10x funnier with it in the background, but it's gone now and that's that.
Besides, we'll always have builds somewhere on the server that remain from the old times. Whether it's the escape tunnel to Pogtopia that managed to survive Doomsday, or Techno's old base, or Dream's grave marker for his parrot who died on his journey home with Spirit that still stands, somewhere out there in the ice spikes, waiting for someone to come across it someday.
I mean, this isn't even to mention the sentimental items.
Spirit's leather is fake. The original was destroyed. For all we know, Tommy's discs are just two of the many decoys that circulated around throughout the saga with no way to tell the real ones apart. Hell, Tommy got attached to the fucking decoy discs back in the day and Tubbo scolded him for that lmao. They got rid of those eventually though.
This probably all plays a big part in why attachment and legacy are such big themes of DSMP's story. People get attached to things, people get nostalgic, people care about things, but everything in the story has to be let go of at one point or another. It's a balance.
Where could he be?
Haha went to Barnes of Nobles and drew on this thingy
phil is thomas. tommy is morality. wilbur is anxiety. techno is logic. tubbo is creativity. ranboo is deceit. fundy is his intrusive thoughts.
i mean come on just imagine:
———————————
tubbo: oooh what if you used coral?
phil: good idea mate!
wilbur: coral is fucking disgusting don’t choose that
tommy: SHUT THE FUCK UP WILBUR CORAL IS A GOOD BLOCK
techno, snickering: yeah wilbur shut up
tommy: FUCK OFF TECHNO DON’T TALK SHIT ABOUT WILBUR HE’S PERFECT
———————————
person: so why didn’t you come to my party?
wilbur, panicking: if you tell him you didn’t want to go he’ll hate you forever
ranboo, panicking because of wilbur: *slams hands on table* TELL HIM YOU’RE SICK
———————————
phil: *building another tnt dropper in hardcore*
fundy: ok but what if you built one over a random village
phil:
phil: fundy, what the fuck?
———————————
tubbo: TECHNO
techno, sighing: what?
tubbo: i have this reaaaallly cool idea for a build but i don’t wanna forget so can you help me write notes for it please?
techno, heart squeezing: i—yeah, sure
———————————
phil: so why do you avoid each other so much?
wilbur: we don’t mix
ranboo: *nods*
phil: and why’s that?
wilbur: well, i panic a lot whenever anything happens
ranboo: and him panicking makes me panic so i instinctively start lying to try and get you out of a situation
phil, thinking about the time he forgot his wallet at the grocery store and started panicking when he had to pay so he told the cashier that he forgot the bread and instead left the store and drove home: ...that honestly explains so much
———————————
techno: —they’re rich in nutrients and antioxidants, they lower the risk of heart disease and improve immunity and blood sugar levels, they’re easy to grow and are versatile so you can add them to any meal. they also improve the digestive system and they’re high in carbs so they’re incredibly filling—
fundy: ...what’s he talking about?
phil, absolutely exhausted: the benefits of potatoes so he can convince me to make a potato farm
tubbo: how long has this been going on?
phil: three hours
tommy: what the fuck.
fundy: ...i’m gonna disagree with him to see what happens
ranboo, panicking: fundy nO WAIT—
———————————
wilbur: they need to die
techno: you can’t kill all of the anteaters, wil. it’ll destroy the food chain
both of them: *turn to ranboo*
techno: ranboo what do you think?
ranboo: ...about what?
wilbur: do you think anteaters are vile creatures and god’s worst mistake and that they need to be eradicated?
ranboo: *glances between the two*
ranboo, internally: quick pick a side oh god—
ranboo, sweating: wh...what’s an anteater?
———————————
tommy, after ranboo made phil pretend to be a devout christian for 30 minutes to avoid an argument about religion: you’re such a pussy, ranboob
ranboo: we’ve established this, yes
———————————
PLEASE HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN ANYONE DO THIS YET?! LIKE COME ON. SLEEPY SIDES AU. IT NEEDS TO BE A THING.
Now that Ponk has put in her instagram bio that she uses all pronouns, I better see the same energy and support towards her as all of the white gays in this fandom give to Eret. Being a POC on the internet is hard, and being a POC that doesn’t conform to traditional gender norms like single pronouns is probably difficult in a way few of us can understand. I’m so proud of them for coming out and living their truth, and we as a community need to show them our love
*tips hat* m’laria

Fixed link: The Dream Team are fine with any reuploaded content as long as something within Fair Use is being added to it and full VODs are not being uploaded.
villain arc this villain arc that! spiralling into a worse mental state is not a girlboss moment!
a true example of a girlboss moment was when c!tommy dragged himself out of an abusive relationship by himself. when c!tommy came to his own realisation that he was not friends with his abuser. there was no “someone saving him from exile” moment, no helpful saviour to hold his hand. he did it By Himself. the best part about it is that it happened at the same time when c!tommy decided to save himself from suicide. when c!tommy chose to hit the water instead of the ground and kept going, kept surviving. it was the most inspiring shit.
I am artblocked so I did this lil poster thing
Bonks this community
Just a reminder, every character has their own warped view of Wilbur because Wilbur didn’t talk to anyone about his problems. All they saw was the outcome, not the input. The closest a character has come to understanding Wilbur is Tommy because Tommy stuck around Wilbur, and even he likely doesn’t have the full story.
Niki does not have the full context for Wilbur’s character, do not take her word as gospel.
Quackity does not have the full context for Wilbur’s character, do not take his word as gospel.
Ranboo does not have the full context for Wilbur’s character, do not take his word as gospel.
Tommy does not even have the full context for Wilbur’s character, do not take his word as gospel.
If Technoblade doesn’t break Dream out of jail by tricking Skeppy into doing it for him, I’m becoming a full time Tommy apologist.
