#@ the anons who were simply misinformed but were really polite about it: try to avoid spreading info that isn't 100% confirmed until

Alright curious anon here. All this is /dsmp /rp from here on out unless otherwise specified and is refering to characters. If i make any mistakes or am misinformed please let me know! So by the cat was nothing compared to mushroom henry i was meaning more toward the fact that the cow was killed as a punishment for something not worth or ok for it to be killed for at all and the fact that it belonged to tommy, wheareas the cat was killed more to annoy dream and belonged to tommy. (1/?)

alright then another lengthy reply, here i come! /lh /dsmp /rp

Dream also did not seem to mourn the cat much, shrugging it off with a "just more motivation to break out".

it was killed to hurt dream, not to "annoy him". it doesn't matter who it belonged to, c!dream was attached to it and it died, which had an effect on him and also further proved his point about attachments being weakness and caring getting you hurt, and it's still very sad.

you say that it was not ok at all to kill mooshroom henry, but the cat's death wasn't ok either, so i really don't see your point.

again, i disagree it was "nothing compared to" either way. i never meant to compare them in the first place, i was simply talking about the cat and c!dream so i don't see why it is in any way necessary to drag c!tommy and other dead pets into this. /nm

also, it isn't true he didn't mourn it. he is a very reserved person who doesn't show his feelings much, that's true, but the cat death still changed the way he acted afterwards, as well as the attempts he made to prevent it. he didn't "shrug it off", he yelled about it because he was understandably upset.

You mentioned that propganda was used to make dream seem like a tyrant, could you specify a bjt? Cus im a little confused srry /gen. Because the most i can remember from the lmanburg era at least is him being called a b'tch or other similar insults. You also mentioned how trauma responses can be differet which is true! I agree! Do you have any ideas to what caused dream the trauma?

wilbur would continuously make him out to be some sort of oppressive, tyrannical force, in front of his troops - a prime example of this being the lyrics of the l'manberg anthem itself and the l'manberg declaration of independence.

actually! here's a nice thread about l'manberg's establishment complete with links, timestamps and evidence :]

i also said in my previous post what could've possibly caused it, but since the character intentionally hides his emotions from the public, it would be difficult to see how things really affected him - which is why the way his spiral went is the majority of the evidence that would imply it, however it does make sense within the story as well with what i mentioned last time.

I would like to note that for sapnap at least had reason to leave dream. Some examples off the top of my head are dream leading an angry fundy to sapnap's pets on purpose, resulting in some deaths, dream assisting tommy in burning down sapnap's effiel tower where he got engaged to karl, and dream giving tommy either mars or the other fish at the battle of the lake. Idk about george tho other then the whole mexican lmanburg/el rapids thing and decrowning him

c!sapnap was actually at fault for most of this, and it wasn't really ever betrayal on c!dream's part.

c!dream is a mediator and he wants to stop everyone's conflict - c!fundy was angry because of c!sapnap's actions, and hence it made more sense for c!dream to centre him on c!sapnap's animals instead of running around killing everyone's pets (at that time, all c!dream knew was c!sapnap did something really bad and c!fundy wanted beckerson / mars from him, which were also his and c!george's fish).

c!sapnap was an instigator, and in multiple conflicts during the time as well as before he'd align himself against c!dream. he isn't "loyal" per se, he causes chaos and the reason c!dream helped c!tommy was because, c!sapnap, again, killed his pet. the first l'manberg war and then the 16th are signs of the fact that c!dream and c!sapnap were willing to fight together in actual war, but these small conflicts where c!sapnap continuously picked fights weren't about personal loyalty, nor did they seem to affect their relationship at all.

c!george was never really hurt by c!dream either. the dethronement was him very obviously being a guilt-trippy drama queen, but, well, that's just the character. he had stolen the l'mantree while he was supposed to be the diplomatic figure of the greater smp, which is why c!dream was justified in - very politely, may i mention - taking the duties off of him (seeing as he was also trying to keep him safe and c!techno had already assassinated him once).

Im pretty sure i remember cc!sam stating that his character never canonically physically tortured dream during his subathon but take this with a grain of salt as i am looking for the clip currently. So to the best of my knowledge dream did not have a physical contact trigger during tommy's visit which! I rewatched the vod and dream actually was first to hit tommy and i can give you my full writing downs but 10/12 of the phy-

you never finished this point because you had to go do something, but i'll reply to what is here at the moment (i suggest writing these down before sending next time, or even writing them out wholly before sending a single one could help avoid stuff like this).

i am 95% sure that the reason cc!sam stated this was because people were suspicious he had already been doing what c!quackity was doing after - torture within the storyline itself is associated pretty much only with what c!quackity is doing, so that's what he meant, just to clear up confusion - the starvation or terrible conditions haven't been retconned, but it was direct torture (like c!quackity is doing) people were asking him about.

i never said c!dream had a physical contact trigger at all, i don't think he had that, though he probably will after the torture.

huh, ok, i'm gonna have to rewatch then, but i remember c!tommy punching c!dream a lot and him just telling him to stop and only punching back to get him to stop. trigger or not, getting hit isn't very pleasant, if you know what i mean.

You mentioned tommy stealing dream's armor unprovoked. Do you have the vod or a general idea of the time so i can find it? Like before lmanburg after another event so and so because if you do not have it i can find it but any help is appreciated.

i am pretty sure you can find the video on cc!tommy's channel! there are also recaps of the disc war on youtube :]

I wanna talk a little on why the Final Control Room was so messed up. For starters, with the way the room was designed. It was small, and had labeled, empty chests with each person's name on them as a mockery. The next reason is that its bascially a kill box.

It's fairly inescapble with the stairs being ones you have to jump up, slowing anyone who climbs them down. The final reason it is messed up is that it is shown to have caused every person who died in it trauma. With tommy there are several examples, the time he saw it with techno, the way he refuses to go near it, the exposure trauma, etc. Fundy also appears to have trauma, as when the Red Banquet executions began, it can be seen as him being afraid of dying last again.

It can Be thought as tubbo having trauma because he buries most of his issues and pretends to be ok. Moreover this event took at least one of each person's canon lives, making it the most canon lives lost EVER in a dream smp event. (This is not hate on any of the ccs btw i loved this scene and its one of my personal favorites). Plus the fact Eret's betrayal just literally happened, giving at least Tommy and Wilbur canonic trust issues.

i wouldn't call the chests mockery? it was a trap. people had traps on the smp before. it was a trap in the middle of war, supposed to end said war by killing them all at once rather than individually which would be a lot more bloody and difficult.

i agree c!tommy and other people might have post-war trauma, especially if they were young during the time, but i think that's because the final control room was "messed up", moreso because the war itself was. it all happened fairly instantly as well? i don't think c!fundy would be able to realize he was the last one standing within the two second before he wasn't.

it "can be thought" and it can be interpreted like that but besides c!tommy there isn't much evidence for them "all" being traumatized by the final control room. of course betrayal would spark trust issues, i understand that.

The probation was humiliating in my opinion because dream was Sending tommy anatgonizing messages through out the whole meeting, plus he had to write a review of his day every single day, which fundy mocked him for.

i mean, it was definitely a strike to his pride, but he was being extremely uncooperative so i don't really blame the other members of new l'manberg trying to teach him to listen for once? of course i know c!dream was riling him up, and that should definitely be considered. i don't think it would be as humiliating if c!tommy didn't make it, is what i'm saying.

for the tommy being toxic to fundy? At least for the examples you gave, to me personally they come acoross as either in a meta way being the cc's bantering or in canon being the characters having banter. If you can send the post with the clips so i can read the tone better that would be cool but if not i will try and find em.

no, these were all in canon. canon isn't only when c!tommy is being nice, it's also when he's being a jerk. /lh

the first one was him threatening c!fundy about kicking him out of l'manberg and undermining his self-worth, and the second one was him trying to get c!sapnap to vote for them via bullying c!fundy.

i found these from a transcript focusing on c!fundy's character, so i don't know exactly where the first one is from, but the second one i am pretty sure is from when the elections were starting with the whole cabinet battle deal and all of that.

there are other instances, and all of them are canon. his personality was never being nice or compassionate, so i'm not really surprised? he still cares about the people he cares about and is very brave, y'know. but this part of his personality is definitely a valid reason for people to dislike him.

I hope the exam went well :). Hope u have a great day! (Ps i think theres something called a submission box to send in pictures? Am not entirely sure sry)

it would've gone well but my work-speed is a tad too slow for the schooling system (considering i'm three years younger than my classmates,,, probably that's also a factor) so probably not despite the fact i knew everything and would've aced it if i only had more time. i did as well as i could so i'm not worried about it, but thanks!

i think you're thinking submissions. sadly, i tested it and it doesn't work on anons, so idk how you'd solve that, maybe make a burner account?

Curious anon here one point you may wanna include in the redemption essay is that c!tubbo or c!tommy do not necessarily have to forgive him. What's important is that he recognizes what he did was wrong (exile, beating tommy to death, manipulating them both, etc) and does his best to make amends. Hope this helps! Can't wait to see your essay

it's out, idk if you've seen it yet, and i think i included enough of that so hope it's all good! :)

the mcc update video is out if you are an mcc enjoyer. It's very neat, if you wanna check it out

yeah! i am a fellow mcc enjoyer, saw it already, thanks for telling me though, i'm really hype for today.

Allo curious anon here sorry if the lots of asks bother you. I was just curious if i could share an interesting post i saw today about c!dream :0 (not necessarily negative i think? More of a statement of an often-confused canon)

sure thing! i don't know what you mean by often-confused since, the entire fanbase is very confused always, and often selection bias plays into the perception from both sides, but sure :]

you also sent in a thing for the other anon who said they didn't know what c!dream did that bad; pretty sure they couldn't really be alerted since, not sure if they watch my blog that closely, but i'll summarize your points just in case and add some notes;

the repeated blowing up of l'manberg (in my mind that's largely a positive since i,, despise that country, but fair enough), revealed c!ranboo as a traitor (they seem to be friends so i also,, think that might've been planned between him and enderboo), sent ghostbur away (i don't think c!dream knew it was dangerous for him and wanted to actually hurt him, but idk), participated in fighting against c!sapnap when he killed people's pets (that's only negative against c!sapnap and didn't seem to hurt him much at all), and then the whole vault scene where he was allegedly planning to steal people's things (though saying he would & being stopped beforehand and doing it are two different things, frankly).

so i still agree with the other anon that a lot of the hurt he did "to the entire server" (he only negatively interacted with like,, a half of them) is exaggerated both by the characters and the fandom, but i guess that's a consequence of most people seeing him as a threat to everyone's happiness rather than a complex personality.

Also he was aware of the butcher army going to kill techno but only got involved because he saw an opportunity to get a favor. (As he knew in advance due to him telling techno to get a totem, watching from afar instead of interveing or manipulating tubbo out of it)

i don't understand this at all, i'm sorry. how do you know he only helped techno in order to get a favor? last i remember he was only doing it to protect and strengthen his alliance, and techno came up with the whole favor thing entirely on his own. you might've not watched techno's perspective or their prior interactions, idk, but this really is a misinterpretation in my eyes. /nm

sorry if that is overly dream negative i just wanted to let yall know cus you seemed unaware -curious anon

nah dw, i watch the smp and i watched all of these things happen so, wouldn't say unaware, but thanks.

[gukiee]

Also can I just say @ the anon or anons who ATTACKED PEOPLE over the whole headline thing to the point of making them feel so shitty they deleted gif sets they worked hard on: you can LITERALLY go f*ck urself tbh

☄ Have you ever been in the middle of drama?

Salty Munday Meme | [x]

Dante voice: Yup. Let me tell you the story...

Or the condensed version of the story. Lily ( @scars-and-apples / @daughterofnero ) and Sab ( @blacklionschampion ) watched a lot of it unfold.

So, back in September 2015 I had a multi-muse blog that was pretty Devil May Cry centric and got followed by a Hitoshura* RPer. I noticed they were reblogged some Danshura stuff (Dante/Shura), so I decided to add this to my rules:

I will not RP ships where the other character is either underage age or younger than my characters. It’s simply not something I’m into, sorry. I am fine with something platonic developing between the characters, however.

It was very polite and civil (at least, I think so). See, the thing that squicked me out about this ship was the fact that Shura was a high school student and Dante was a man that ranged in his 30s to 40s (at the time Shura’s game was released, he was a man in his 30s. After Capcom fucked up DMCs timeline, he was a man in his 40s) and that age gap made me uncomfortable.

I didn’t harass them about their ship, though. I scrolled past it a lot, but I wanted to make it clear that I didn’t want to RP a romantic relationship between the two characters because of the large age gap!

I made a post to inform my followers of this change in my rules and thought it was fine.

But then, they made a vague post that went on about how Shura had no canon age, and went on about Japanese high schools and how it would be safe to assume Shura was 17-20 years old and not 15-17 like many thought.

(FYI, I never claimed Shura was a particular age - hes just far more underage compared to Dante and that squicked me out.)

Annnd I think I might put a read more here so I don’t clog up people’s dashboard with this long ass tale.

Anyways, I responded to them with the following: 

I have a feeling I know what triggered this (the thing i recently put on my guidelines) and I just want to say that even if Naoki is 17-20 years old, it doesn’t change the fact that he is younger than Dante (who is in his thirties in DMC4 and at least forty in DMC2 [since it’s the last game in the timeline thus far]).

Meaning, there’s a 13 to 20 year age gap between Naoki and Dante and it’s because of that age gap that I am not interested in RPing that ship.

Writing what I did in the guidelines isn’t an attack on you but merely me stating that it isn’t something I am into. I am, personally, uncomfortable with the ship because of the large age gap… that’s all.

Their response to my post was them vaguing about me and they went on about how it wasn’t fair to put an unreasonable age gap between Shura and Dante, and it also became clear that they didn’t like me using the Devil May Cry timeline to further explain why I was uncomfortable with the ship and because they were trying to tell me how the game’s timeline should go and, essentially, how I should play Dante.

I had unfollowed them and blocked them (I think this was before blocking wasnt a pos), but they kept mentioning me and also sending me harassing anons. Eventually, I thought they finally stopped for a while but then came December 2015.

They reblogged an anonymous ask I had received that I believed was from them and they tried to claim I was abusive and manipulative to a mutual friend of ours and also tried to use the post as an example of ‘push shove’.

Also, I was still receiving anonymous messages during this time.

But it gets uglier in 2016.

So, aside of them trying to lie and say that a good friend of mine quit RPing Hitoshura because of me and attempting to stir up drama between me and another Shura RPer, they also tried to diagnose me with phobias. It had started with an ask they had received (from themselves, I assumed) that said the following: Do you honestly think that Tay suffers from Atychiphobia?

To which they answered with, and I quote the part that bugged me the most, but the entire post is bothersome so have a screencap of it: “That or a serious case of Tyrannophobia which I doubt. Tays symptoms fits she fears failure one of the signs is trying to avoid humiliation or embarrassment.”

They had gotten called out for it, but continued to insist that I treated others like they were inferior to me, attempted to discredit me and claim I lied as well say that I needed someone to act as a ‘moderator’ for myself ( and they also continued to try to diagnose me and continued to imply I needed someone to moderate or babysit me.)

And also, they still continued to harass me. Just... here:

Here is an instance where they had sent me two asks I had received in the same hour on two different accounts.

Here is an instance where she blatantly lies, calls me a monster and said she didn’t care about my entitlement views or ‘spoiled rotten cunt attitude’.

Here is an instance where they had called me a degenerated scumbag; a paranoid schizophrenic psycho after I supposedly snubbed their friend Allen when they supposedly told me to see someone for my ‘unhealthy habits; a psychotic drama whore and; a stupid psychopathic monster. All in the same post, might I add.

Granted, I could have probably talked to them privately about the ship stuff, but given how they acted over the course of twoish years? I think I would still have gotten wrapped up in this drama.

(I could have probably also not have sent them an ask or try to publicly dispel misinformation on another blog of theirs, but you live and learn).

Thankfully, they seem to have stopped talking about me for the most part (thats the keyword, because I sometimes find them mentioning me on their Pidge blog. The, uh, url is greenpaladinofnature if you wish to know in case you want to block or something. I rather continue being in the lay low though because them mentioning me less is what I want.)

Their harassment was a factor in me quitting Tumblr RP for a while (along with burn out) and a factor in me leaving my old personal blog behind (acetrainerderpte was my old personal). :/

*Hitoshura is from Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne. Dante (who is from Dante) has a cameo in that game. It’s a really great came and its for the PS2. Go check it out or watch an LP!
