#lore with llama

[fluffallamaful]

Personally I don’t think immortality was actually the goal: it’s such a random, non-emotionally-charged answer that from a Doylist perspective it would be a hugely unsatisfying payoff to a mystery that the cc!s have kept going for over two years at this point, and from a Watsonian perspective why would Dream be honest about his intentions? I don’t know what he was trying to do, but I’d bet money that it wasn’t that — or at least, not COMPLETELY that.

Anyway, yeah Dream and Punz are probably getting interrogated because some members of the server are convinced that Tommy’s sudden turnaround is the result of some sort of brainwashing or w/e. Those that have gone after him have a surprising variety of perspectives on this. Quackity, for example, is actually completely on Tommy’s side — and Sapnap is absolutely not. So Quackity basically went along to secretly try and mend the bridge he burned down a little bit, and Sapnap is there to force a confession. Unintentional Good Cop / Bad Cop style. (Also that idea about Punz expecting gentle tickles and then getting absolutely destroyed is hysterical. Canon.)

But then Sapnap switches his target.

Quackity was shockingly nice, but Sapnap wants answers. He kneads into his sides, drills into his armpits, scratches a pen into the soles of his feet — it’s horrible. Dream can’t stand this for long. And then Sapnap calls over the others to help, and suddenly Dream is having all of his worst spots targeted at once until he’s sobbing into the floor. (Quackity forces them off after a bit, saying that they’re not gonna get anything out of him if they kill him first.)

Later, when it devolved from an interrogation to a competition of “how can we make Dream lose his shit the fastest”, Punz ends up being even worse than Sapnap. This is probably because the turning point of this whole situation had something to do with everyone realizing at once just how self-destructive Dream actually is and deciding that he needs some punishment tickles for all the bullshit he pulled in the past few years.

there you go @wishitweresummer your addition as been canonised :D

i’m gonna discuss lore stuff first and then continue with AU stuff underneath. soup your brain is epic 🤌🏼 it deserves a warm bath, a boop on the snoot, and a cookie. you attention to detail with lore stuff will never fail to amaze me 👌🏼

(discussion belowwww)

🦙🦙🦙…

lore stuff

yes what you’ve pointed out is interesting. i think that the realisation that the server could potentially have immortal beings on it now was definitely something that sparked punz and dream to work together so much. i’m pretty sure it’s canon that part of the reason that cdream built the prison was just in case someone immortal ‘got in his way’ and he needed to contain them (interestingly he never explicitly explained what they could be getting in the way of 👀)

i think that you’re right about immortality not being the end goal,, but certainly understanding everything there is to know about it would have been close. i think that what could have happened is that they started off by wanting to understand it,, but then realised that there were so many other layers beyond immortality itself (they mentioned that they had seen different realms).

i’m actually rather unfamiliar with what cpunz’ motives were? did he ever explain them deeper than ‘wanting to be powerful’? i got the impression that he wanted to learn about the revival stuff for more selfish reasons,, whereas dream had a more fluffy fantasy of having him and his friends live together kind of thing. it’s why i felt he was so silent when punz pointed out to tommy that him and dream were friends — coz i think he knew deep down that punz and him wanted the same thing, but for different reasons. (i could be completely wrong about all of this lmao,, my cpunz obsession isn’t quite as strong as my cdream obsession)

🦙🦙🦙…

AU stuff (Drunz Interrogation AU?? what do i call it lmao. maybe just Interrogation AU?)

ohhhh this is so much fun with quackity and sapnap playitn good cop bad cop holy moly 😍 so quackity hears what tommy is saying and actually believes him? i suppose it makes sense. he had seen dream at his most vulnerable moments in the past year afterall. and he did always seem to have some sort of soft spot for tommy

would quackity and sap have spoken before this moment? i feel like sap would take on the bad cop role for such sweet reasons. like he’s heard all this stuff from tommy and he’s not only scared that his country and his fiancé’s are going to be caught in the crossfire. but he’s also angry at dream suddenly trying to be open and friendly again,, and ever more angry that he confessed it to tommy of all people. why couldn’t he have told him while he visited him in prison?!

i always love having sap be the one to interrogate dream and punz coz i can just imagine that he’d know them so well. like early days sap and punz were playful and brotherly, and it’s fun to imagine tickles coming into play during sap and dream sparring sessions. basically he’d just know all the spots and techniques to get them howling. and they’re both still tied up to a tree with nowhere to go

i’m still stuck thinking about quackity giving dresm soft neck nibbles 🥺 and i kinda love the idea that after being absolutely wrecked by sapnap,, the comparatively softer techniques from quackity are what begin to fluster him. though not entirely coz i imagine he’d still be inconsolably pissed at quackity for what he did to dream in prison

also AHHH!!! so it turns into the “the tickles didn’t make him speak but he looked like he could use them anyway” kinda of situation :(( where punz actually starts to help give dream tickles. i adore the idea of punz cradling dreams head in his lap and sternly promising that he’s not going to let them hurt him. that’s so cute ☹️

[fluffallamaful]

it is so fun to imagine that XD is just a youngster learning about the worlds still 🥺 canon!XD gives off such pouty, childish vibes so it very much makes sense. like the things that offend him and his tendency to overreact? his naivety with certain things? (didn’t know what jokes or grass was, tried to pretend that he understood foolish’s explanation before he actually did)

it’s just so fun with the God Sibling AU that the fluffy part of this characterisation gets to be explored 😂 and so much fun to have the two older gods there to compare him to

I find it hysterical how different coven!DreamXD is from canon!DreamXD, lol. Like, canon!DreamXD feeds on pain and misery, demands death and destruction for entertainment purposes, seems to basically be recycling all of the souls of the dead through his eternal digestive tract (Limbo), and is the closest thing the story seems to have to an Absolute Evil. And then coven!DreamXD is a caring but estranged older brother who is trying his best. I like to think it’s a reflection of your world being a kinder, more hopeful version of the server overall :)

Awwww thank you for this. Especially about my world being seen as kinder, that's so sweet.

I was very worried about my interpretation of XD because (like you said) it is so far from the canon one. I had ideas for XD after he was first seen/talked about on streams so built it off of that when there wasn't much to go on then when more and more got revealed it just strayed further and further.

While canon XD is really fun in a way you don't really know what they'll do next or just to see him be chaotic, I always prefer Gods being written with more emotion, if that makes sense. I love overpowered beings with so much power to destroy, but I adore them when they have people they care for, and maybe hold themselves back from powers or consider what using the powers could mean for others around them. I like it when Gods are more careful with themselves rather than them causing death/destruction and then just waving their hands and making it all better. I like seeing Gods have to plan for stuff rather than snap their fingers and the thing happens. I think I just love God with limitations and feelings.

And I just really love my interpretation of XD being a young God who is sweetly trying to make things better for his siblings, but can also be a feral little gremlin to cause mischievous. Sets up so much for him to be a teasing ler to mortals but also be absolutely wrecked and put in his place by the older Gods.

[quietbrushstrokes]

I present to you: My babies! This is an alternate universe in which instead of narinder being the one who waits, It’s leshy !

Leshy is the bishop of chaos. With a name like The Bishop of Chaos you’d think he’d cause some, no? Well, In this universe, he does.

He causes so much, in fact, that his siblings chain him up in purgatory. Narinder had proposed death as a solution, but Shamura shut his idea down fast.

‘How could we kill our own brother?’

Wrong choice, Shamura.

Or maybe, right choice?

Now, employing the help of the last llama, he intends to regain control of not only dark wood, but every other realm. While causing a little chaos, ofcource.

(Yes I know the llama has the crown and weapon out, it was for aesthetic reasons dammit)

More beyond the break If you want more details on the au ⬇️

Our llama, now tasked with assassinating all of the bishops, decides this path is not for her. She doesn’t want to kill them. But She doesn’t want to be killed either. She starts her cult. Through old tombs etched into stone in each bishop’s domain, She learns the past of the bishops. Each bishop was born for good, Narinder the bishop of life, Heket the bishop of harvest, Kalamar the bishop of health, Shamura the bishop of peace. Each one turning to evil. Narinder the bishop of death, Heket the bishop of famine, Kalamar the bishop of Pestulance, Shamura the bishop of war.

Leshy’s tomb is etched out, and unreadable, but there are fragments of words. Chaos and order being the only readable words.

She knew what she had to do.

She meets with ???, the mystic seller, who informs her that to reform a bishop, you need god tears, but they must be defeated first. And be willing.

One by one, she takes down the bishops, and invites them to stay at her cult. Each one declines, so she locks them in a small area of their domain. She visits daily, bringing food, water, and kind words. The bishops slowly warm up to her, and each one begins to slowly feel indifference to their old ways. She soon gets her hand on god tears, and begins reforming the bishops. One by one, she restores peace. Until Leshy. As the bishop of chaos, he has no want for order, for kindness. He was also betrayed by the llama, who used their own crown against him.

Durning this time, She finds out what’s truly up with leshy from the other bishops. He was never born for order, never born for good. He was born as a normal Darkwood worm, and found the crown. It gave him power like nothing else, and he loved it. He fought with the crown for more of its power, corrupting it with his greed, making himself the bishop of chaos.

This all culminates in a final Battle. All of the reformed bishops fight with the llama against Leshy, weakening him until they can get him to stop fighting. Once he is weakened, they show him how life could be. He submits, and is turned into the bishop of order, and his crown returned.

The llama, now without a crown, and no longer a bishop, has completed her journey. She knows she did the world a justice, and rejoices in the fact she reformed a world so set in its ways when they couldn’t see the wrong they had done.

….and that’s all I’ve got so far- I’m not sure if she dies, lives on as a normal mortal running her cult, maybe the bishops grant her immortality? I was also tossing around the idea that the bishops donate a bit of their power to create a crown for her, making her the bishop of something? Maybe the bishop of wisdom or perseverance or something? I never got that far.

I don’t know if I’ll continue this au, but I had this cooking in my brain soup, and figured I could pour out a bowl to sample. I might draw the reformed bishops later on if I get bored. This was fun to brainstorm though!

Good Morning!

I’ll start with some tags because I haven’t seen any posts yet this morning. Throwing out some no pressure tags to some folks in case you’d like to share something: @fatalfangirl @whatevertheweather @cutestkilla @facewithoutheart @artsyunderstudy @thewholelemon @hushed-chorus @raenestee @bookish-bogwitch @moodandmist @ileadacharmedlife @ivelovedhimthroughworse @aristocratic-otter @nightimedreamersworld @martsonmars @youarenevertooold @cosmicalart @valeffelees @toonysart @shrekgogurt @iamamythologicalcreature @whogaveyoupermission @athenapitch @run-for-chamo-miles @mysterioussheep @wellbelesbian @captain-aralias @rimeswithpurple @prettygoododds @orange-peony @leithillustration @alexalexinii @blackberrysummerblog @j-nipper-95 @larkral @ic3-que3n @tender-ministrations @forabeatofadrum

I’m working on chapter 9 of Depth of Reason. We’re kicking it off with Penny and Simon out to lunch catching up after the events of chapter 8. I’m putting the snippet under the cut for spoilers so if you aren’t up to date with this fic, proceed with caution.

“Baz and I kissed after everyone left,” I say, grinning despite my best efforts to stay cool.

She squeals so loudly that several people turn and look at us. “Nicks and Slick! Are you serious?”

“Yes,” I say, keeping my voice low in hopes she’ll mimic my volume.

“So are you, like, together now? Are you still his social worker? What about his case?” She reaches her hand across the table and takes my hand in hers. Her enthusiasm mixed with concern is palpable.

“Not his social worker anymore. I put him on Ana’s caseload.” She nods her approval. “And I suppose we’re together? I dunno, we haven’t really labeled it but we have been…spending a lot of time together,” I say carefully, sipping my water and trying hard not to blush. I’ve always had a difficult time talking about my (previously barely existent) sex life with Penny. (Not that we’re having sex yet, but the point still stands.) It’s like talking about sex with your sister. Plus, Penny is far too blunt about everything, and hearing her ask questions with so much frankness and uninterrupted eye contact takes more bravery than facing down a herd of Drama Llamas.

*asleep. I am asleep. Something’s off about this dream.. something so vaguely familiar to me. Why can’t I remember..*

*asleep , I am asleep. A night out with friends, yeah, I remember this. A birthday.. MY birthday. I had turned 19.*

*dizzy, foggy.. a puzzle, that I can’t put together. There was a party.. now a train station? We were.. playing around, yeah, that’s right. Having a laugh…*

*a push.*

*loud blaring. Train didn’t stop in time; COULDNT stop in time. People screaming.*

*ringing in my ears.*

*suddenly, I’m awake.*

*Yonder awoke in a cold sweat, shooting straight up. His breaths were heavy and labored, looking around himself frantically. He was disoriented, confused, and every bone in his body hurt. His head ached.. he could feel tears form in his ‘eyes’, and a lump in his throat that became hard to swallow. He couldn’t stop it from happening, he began to bawl, clutching onto himself which rocking back and forth gently. That wasn’t a nightmare. That was far worse.. it felt so familiar to him, why was it so familiar. The crying made his head hurt more, so he held it in his hands while he continued to sob. Small, silent sparks flying out of his face while he did.*

FUCK…

*was all the man managed to get out through his sobs, now curled into a pathetic ball. Shaking like a leaf, afraid of the world. Having a total ‘I want my parents’ moment.. but they didn’t even know he was alive; hell, yonder didn’t know if THEY were alive. The noise of the train blaring and people screaming replayed in his head over and over, like a broken record. He couldn’t get the sounds of it out. Train blaring, a crash, then screams. Train blaring, a crash, then screams. Train blaring… a crash… then screams. Again and again, over and over, it wouldn’t stop. He wanted it to stop. Why wouldn’t it stop?*

Having way too much fun with my new pen, so have some properly inked in Watcher and Listener designs from the Horizons au

Close ups and design notes under the cut (lore spoilers if you’re reading Give me back my heart you wingless thing)

Grian’s design is based off the fanon of Mother Spore mostly, as he was made the Watcher of Sculk, which is close enough to mycelium for my brain to make sense of it. He wears his normal Horizons clothing with the addition of a skirt of spider-silk, a hat of the same fiber, a veil of lichen, and the two sculk life-forms Dandelion and Inkcap on top of his hat. He can also manifest two horns that resemble those of a Warden.

Martyn’s design is based off his limited life red skin, and partially off his pirates smp skin. He is the Listener of Phantoms, wearing his normal Horizons robe open with the sleeves pinned up, an open and tattered white shirt of phantom membrane, and a necklace with a scale of the Ender Dragon on it. He was given the necklace to mark him as the heir of the End Crystal Crown. His hair grows transparent near the ends, like the tips of phantom’s wings.

Jimmy’s design is based on his empires season 2 sheriff skin. He wears his normal Horizons clothing as well as a ‘bush hat’ (shallow cowboy hat), a bolo tie with an endstone clasp, and two bangles made from shulker shells, as he was chosen as the Listener of Shulkers. He maintains a small sphere of Void magic directly above his head, roughly in the shape of a shulker bullet.

Pearl’s design is based off her double life red skin. She wears her normal Horizons clothing, as well as a dull red hood with a moon and star charm attached to the point. These charms float of their own accord, surrounded by purplish motes produced as a byproduct of being chosen as the Watcher of Endermen.

So many art brain rot but so little time im so torn this is what i get for being hyperfixated on multiple fandoms at the same time

[fluffallamaful]

I feel like a lot of people just ignore how HORRIBLE c!Tommy can be in canon.

An (incomplete) list:

- Breaking two of the only three rules on the server on Day 1, just for shits and giggles (excusable as just silly cc! shenanigans up until the Finale, when it was brought up as a serious talking point)

- Continuously lying and cheating to get his way (see: the Discs, which Dream technically won fair and square) (also the duel, in which he broke form to shoot early and then blamed Dream for defending himself)

- Stealing the corpse of Dream’s dead pet and continuously using it to taunt him to his face, showing very clearly that anything Dream loves can and will be used against him at any point

- Burning down George’s house for no reason.

- Taunting Dream to his face — AGAIN waving his dead pet’s corpse in front of him — AS DREAM IS TEARING DOWN THE WALL SURROUNDING LMANBERG. This causes Dream to snap and give the “I don’t give a FUCK about Spirit” speech and give Tubbo the ultimatum of Exile. (He WON. He would have WON that if he could have just not taunted him with his dead pet!)

- Continuously planning to kill Dream, before, during, and after Exile. Nothing changed here, really: he just got a little more vicious in his efforts.

- Tortures Fundy. cc!Fundy plays it seriously.

- Betrays Techno. Never returns the Axe of Peace.

- Kills Dream’s cat in front of him, for no reason other than to hurt Dream. Proceeds to physically beat Dream and instigate a fight.

- Breaks into the prison multiple times to kill Dream while he is unarmed, defenseless, unable to hurt anyone, and having LOST the Disc War that Tommy was obsessed with.

- Jack Manifold.

- Tubbo. He’s just. HORRIBLE to this guy. Who’s supposed to be his best friend. Continuously. Before AND after Exile.

- Breaks into the prison AGAIN during the Finale, after a year of Dream literally doing nothing, to chase him down and kill him in the very room where he was tortured for a year. After this he goes around the server and brags.

- Has the fucking nerve to leverage Spirit’s corpse against Dream one last time.

And honestly? Props to cc!Tommy, because c!Tommy is a beautifully complex character that acts as a kick in the teeth a lot of the time with just how unapologetic he is about the worst parts of himself. Believe it or not, Tommy was once my absolute favorite character just because of how complex he is. But then the fandom started treating him as the moral center of the story which is — just — the worst way to take his character, and eventually I just (unfairly, I know) couldn’t stand him anymore because of how such a large part of the fandom started treating him as an unbiased narrator when the whole point of his character is that he is anything but. (Shame. I can’t wait to come back to the fandom in a couple years when things die down a bit so that I can maybe go back to enjoying his character a bit.)

see that’s exactly the thing. like incredible thing about the smp is that all characters had motivations and good intentions, but all characters went about it wrong. like they all have their light, dark and grey sides. they’re all complex. it’s incredible 🙌🏼 and it’s captivating.

i wish that the fandom was just so much more understanding that people are going to like a character for reasons that are more than just because they’re “the good guys”. like the fandom as a whole lacks the will to understand the concept of character depth 🫠 and fails to understand that everyone is going to see each character differently

it’s so nice speaking to someone who understands this 😭 tommys character is so fun and it would be so fun to rewatch the smp, but without the need to see him as the protagonist. he’s super fun as an antagonist too

[llamawrites]

Hot take, I like it when the shows/Movies focused on the Ultras on their home world. They are cool funky looking dudes. I couldn't care less about the humans in the shows/Movies tho.

2 - Tag your favorite ler!

I literally have a lot of favorites but I'll tag @wishitweresummer simply bc she's unapologetically cruel 🫠

4 - How long do you think you could go before calling for mercy?

I think it all depends on what's happening.....I've had ✨sessions✨ but have never said the safeword, and one went on for.....a while....so I'm not sure if I ever would??? I'm sure if things got intense I would but I think it would take a very long time or something extremely tkly to make me call for mercy

7 - What’s your favorite nickname to be called, either while being tickled/teased or in general? (Or both)

generic ones would be the stupidly sweet ones like baby, sweetheart, darling, all that kind of stuff. and then i like the more personal ones that specific people call me. and also ..a certain variation of the word works too

10 - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a lee or ler mood?

listen. i plead the fifth 😇
