I made this about a year and a half ago, I just figured that I'd post it since I'm pretty bored.
TW/CW's: None
|"Jeepers it's a Creeper- AHHH it's a Cat!!!"|
***/|Dream has been in the prison for a few days, Sam is visiting inside the prison|\***
Dream: *Talking*
Sam: *Paying attention, but is getting distracted by sounds coming from something in the room, he puts a hand up* "Pause."
Dream: *Stops speaking, the scratching sounds a bit louder*
Sam: *Looks around the room, pin pointing where the sound seems to be coming from* "What is that?"
Dream: *Plays dumb* "I don't really know......."
Sam: *Glances over at Dream* "I doubt that highly. What is it?"
Dream: *Fake sighs* "Alright, I'll say. I still have something that was from outside."
Sam: *Annoyed Persistence* "And what is it?"
Dream: *Waves a dismissive hand* "No need to get so worked up, it's nothing dangerous."
Sam: *Stares at Dream with a blank face, not one ounce of believe in his eyes* "Again, I doubt that highly."
Dream: "No no, I'm serious. You can look for yourself and if you think it's dangerous you can tell me that I can't have it here."
Sam: *Complete Suspicion* "I'll check.......... But I don't trust you near it."
Dream: *He puts his hands up and shrugs* "Fair enough." {Insert H!AU_EX!AR Drista appearing and shouting "That's not your line!" [There's a whole joke about the "Fair enough" line, it's so stupid but also funny, but I'll take way too long to type out 😹🤣😅]} *Dream walks over to the opposite side of the room of the noise*
Sam: *Still cautious, he slowly turns his attention to the sound and carefully walks over to a little table with a cloth draped over it. He slowly removes the cloth, and a small cat leaps onto the cloth on the floor. Sam lets out a defensive Creeper hiss, sprinting to the other side of the room. He turns back to the Cat, standing as far away from it as he can* "What the heck is that!?"
Dream: *Amused grin beneath the mask* "A Cat~"
Sam: *Glances over at Dream quickly* "That was a retoracal question!" *His gaze snaps back to the cat, who's just playing with the cloth laying on the floor* "Why do you have a Cat?!"
Dream: "I've had a Cat, they aren't new."
Sam: "Who let you bring it in here?!"
Dream: "Well, you weren't here when I was brought in, and they saw no harm in it, after all, it's just a Cat."
Sam: "Just a- that thing's a creature of evil!!"
Dream: 'Okay Karen-' "What about Antfrost? He's a Cat Anthropomorphic? Is he a creature of evil?"
Sam: "Not the same! He has morals!"
Dream: *Silent judgement* 'Bish you can't talk-'
Sam: "That thing!" *Points at the Cat, who is curling up under the cloth like a small sheet ghost and meowing* "Is Evil!"
Dream: *Gets a chaotic idea* "Hey Sam-"
Sam: "What?!"
Dream: *Walks over to the cat and gently picks it up* "Just what makes Cats so evil?"
Sam: "What are you doing?!"
Dream: *Mischievous Smiling under his mask, he walks towards Sam holding the Cat* "I'm just asking a question."
Sam: *Backs up* "Put the Cat down."
Dream: *Still walking towards Sam* "What's wrong with Cats?"
Sam: *Still backing up* "Put the Cat down."
Dream: *Amusingly Grins under the mask, picking up his pace slightly* "Just answer the question, there's nothing wrong with it."
Sam: *Keeps backing up, Picking up his pace as well*
***/|The scene soon derails into Dream chasing Sam around the prison room, holding a very confused Cat, and saying for Sam to hold the cat. Sam is sprinting away from Dream, well- mainly the Cat. He finally leaps onto the platform and then the cell walls close, keeping Dream and Sam separate|\***
Sam: *Gasping, trying to catch his breath* "I am never going there again! You cannot make me! Not with that thing!"
Dream: *Shrugs* "Alright. I'm not going to complain about that." {Yet}
Sam: *Sarcastic* "Yeah Sure."
***/|The platform moves away, and the scene comes to an end|\***

Birthday drabble
Okay, so this might play in the same verse as the gift drabble I did for @hiding-in-the-vault
CW: blind Dream, blood and torture mention, Pandora's Vault time, un-beta'd
People were blind, they'd always been. Not literally blind, in most cases, but ...metaphorically, metaphysically, definitely emotionally. How could everyone be so wary of him, Bad mused, yet be so totally dismissive?
" Looking forward to curling up underneath a warm blanket." Antfrost yawned, the leather of his gloves stretched and worn but still steady and sturdy. Etched spells lined the seams.
When Antfrost had won a parkour challenge, Dream had gifted him these gloves with a grin and the boious claim of having bought them of one of the villagers in the village the parkour challenge had been held.
However, the gloves consisted of well-treated warhog hide - not pig hide. How the others had ever swallowed that lie Bad would never understand since villagers wouldn't have been able to access the Nether - or treat the warhog hide with diamond dusted sponges. Or enchant it with Admin-specific spells.
"You sure you're ok with taking my shift?"
Bad forced his lips to move, stretch and part, smile but not too brightly. "Yeah, go get some good rest. Only come back when you're properly rested, you silly muffin." When sharp eyes didn't waver away from Bad's face, he let his smile fall, not quite shatter, just shrink a little. "I don't have anyone waiting for me, after all."
Antfrost winced, cringing away, any suspicion hopefully wiped away and redirected. He kept his silence until they stepped in front of the hissing portal.
"Bad...you good with taking half my shift? I could stay here, you know, keep you company. You...don't actually have to be all alone." Antfrost shifted as his ears folded back and his tail wrapped around his armor covered shin.
Well, Bad didn't want that. Now, how to discourage Antfrost...ah.
"Aww, thank you but all's good." He chuckled and mimicked ruffling the top of Antfrost's head, right between his ears. Antfrost ducked away long before Bad's hand would have made contact.
"See if I care about your feelings again." Despite his parting shot, Antfrost waved and skipped through the portal.
Less than a minute later, the portal screeched and shattered at the press of a button. Now the only two inhabitants of the prison were Bad ...and Dream. Just like Bad had planned.
(Sam was ...out. He hadn't told them were he was going and Bad didn't really want to know. It was a good thing. If he didn't see Sam, it was easier to dismiss the mounting urge to rifle through another forgotten but barred with three locks vault. Nobody would benefit from Bad taking up his Scythe and wielding her to her full extent again.)
Turning on his heel, Bad marched towards the center of the prison, past check-ins, levers and iron bars until the sulfur stench of the lava burned his nostrils. His hand paused on the lever to the bridge and Bad prepared himself mentally. His other hand slipped into his pockets, curving around the rind of the Gapple he smuggled in. Its enchantments zing across Bad's palm.
With a firm breath, he pressed down the lever and the bridge groaned inching forward. Bad hurried to the front, hissing as lava droplets sizzled onto his armour when the lava curtain spluttered and stopped.
His breath hitched.
Had Bad been complaining about the sulfur stench? It was roses and daisies compared to the iron tang in Dream's cell air. Not to mention brown and dark red splattered against void black and crying purple was much more nauseating than the ever-shifting red-orange-yellow.
Dream himself had pressed into the corner opposite to his water hole. Or rather, he'd wrenched himself into the gap between the wall and lectern, somehow, muscles tense and shaking. (Not enough food - or not the right one as molding potatoes languished underneath the droppers. Admins needed way more than potatoes, especially molding one. Keeping up a server took energy, being connected to One took even more. Bad didn't believe the latter was in effect at the moment, or Dream wouldn't be here anymore.)
This was painfully familiar - only with less torture and Dream having been much, much younger.
Dropping to the floor, Bad crossed his legs and hummed. At the first note, Dream froze before a small noise vibrated through his mouth. Bad didn't know the words to the songs he was humming. He was merely humming the song back to its creator.
After humming another of Dream's humming songs back to him and a couple of lullabies, Bad smiled as Dream slipped from his hiding spot and settled against the wall. His smile widened into a grin when Dream tilted his head and Bad opened his mouth-
The mask slipped to the side, revealing just a sliver of Dream's face. It was enough. One milky eye, blood-crusted, stared at Bad's collarbones.
Dream's small smile dealt a fatal blow to Bad's heart.
Bad rearranged things in head - he needed a plan, he couldn't, couldn't, how dare they - took a second and a breath. Gulping down any negativity, he almost cooed. "Heya Dream."
"Hullo Bad, how nice of you to visit me."
Hadn't Bad seen the smile or his eyes or heard the almost crumbling of his voice, those words could have been sharp and cutting with their sardonic edge - or at least be taken as such.
"Is today my birthday or what?"
"In fact, it is."
"O-oh." No matter how humorous Dream's little falter was, laughing was the last thing on Bad's mind. Especially when the tension in Dream's body returned. "Going to give me a birthday present?"
It was so painfully clear that Dream was expecting violence. Bad hated it.
"Indeed, I will." Dream flinched when Bad flipped his dagger open and pulled out the Gapple, carefully cutting the enchanted fruit into pieces. The sound of the weapon slicing through its flesh must be scary or traumatic enough for Dream to begin trembling.
If Bad knew the words to whisper to reassure Dream, he would - but he didn't. He didn't and it was his own fault. No matter what Dream had done - and really, thinking about it, had it been any worse than what other members of the Server had done? Or at least, the punishments here didn't fit the severity of the crime, not when every other member of these lands got off scot-free - he didn't deserve this.
"Hey Dream." Bad shifted until his knee was touching Dream's. Dream almost choked on his own tongue as he tried retreating but only hit a wall. (Don't react.) "Open your mouth, dear one, the sun's coming."
For one second only the lava and the crying obsidian talked, in hisses and screeching - then a long-missed sound echoed through the cell.
Dream's wheezing laugh was lovely to hear, without any malice or taunting staining it.
"Bad, what the fuck, I'm not a little, sick kid anymore! You used that then! Like, seriously?!"
"First off, language, secondly..." Bad reached out and squeezed Dream's four spindly fingers before wrapping them around a slice of the Gapple. "Here's your gift. You've got the rest, too, but I kind of need to feed it to you now. I'm gonna look at the lava now, just tap my hand when you want more."
Settling his hand to Dream's knee, Bad turned away. For quite a while, nothing happened. Dream did absolutely nothing, Until muscles contracted underneath Bad's fingers and he listened to the scraping of Dream's mask against obsidians, small bites as teeth crunched down on an apple, the shuddering sobs and sniffles through Dream's nose while he was choking down a thin Gapple slice.
A finger feathered against Bad's knuckles, and Bad pressed another Gapple slice against it, only for it to be snatched away.
He didn't know how long it took - the cell didn't have a clock - but Bad estimated that Dream used an entire hour to eat one Gapple. Bad's resolve solidified when he turned around and carmine skin edged Dream's eyes. Dream's cheeks were still wet with tears.
"Happy Birthday, Dream."
Dream answered with choked laughter and pressed his knee against Bad's. He even patted the spot next to him and Bad didn't hesitate to slide into it. (Despite the dried blood on the wall, floor and Dream himself.) As soon as Bad settled down, Dream turned and buried his head into Bad's collarbones.
Slowly, slowly Dream dozed off. "Thanks, Dad," he whispered, like it was a secret, like no one else was ever supposed to know.
Bad had plans to make.
And a vault with three locks to unlock and rummage through.

Me? Scared? Absolutely..
Head canon I thought of at like 12 Am:
Dream formulates a plan to start taking over the SMP again but this time with revived Wilbur, since Wilbur has a debt to pay Dream for reviving him. Dream planned to steal as many precious items as he could, but mostly this was just to cause a panic, he plans to terrify each person in such a way that each one would succumb to him. Though this is only step one. A group chases after Dream as he escapes but Dream uses a potion he formulated which attacks the victim with rapid adrenaline and extreme fight or flight reaction, basically terrifying the victim into a violent defense mode. Reducing them into a dangerous and instinctive version of themselves. As Dream is running away he aims at the person who just so happens to be a giant easy target and very dangerous. Badboyhalo. (since Bad is 9’6, a demon, and rather intelligent, he is very dangerous when stripped of his morality and humanity) Badboyhalo, upon getting splashed with the potion, starts panicking until he is overcome by fear. Skeppy notices first since he was right next to Bad and goes to check on Bad while the others try to chase Dream down. Bad is then consumed by fear until he can no longer form rational thought and he attacks Skeppy out of, what Bad thinks, is self defense.
Skeppy screams alerting the others as they turn to find the cause and see Bad clawing at Skeppy as he desperately tries to fight off his best friend. At this point Bad is feral, a dehumanized version of himself and as the others throw Bad off of Skeppy, Bad roars and growls at them prowling before them as his friends stare confused and scared. Puffy, though, is angry. She thinks Bad has sided with Dream and he is attacking them to help Dream escape. She thinks he is acting erratically to throw them off or scare them. She approaches Bad yelling “What the hell Bad?! You think this show is gonna scare me?! Why would you help Dream escape?!?!” but as she steps forward Bad lunges swiftly at her and knocks her to the ground with a slash of his claws. She goes flying a few feet with gashes in her armor, but thankfully her skin remains intact. Tommy, although terrified, runs over to help her and Ant tries to calm Bad down, from a safe distance. But Bad, having had enough, turns and runs strikingly fast away and disappears into the ruins of L’manberg. The others stare bewildered. Even Puffy for a moment is baffled. But her anger quickly returns, now even more so. 
Meanwhile Skeppy watched the whole thing happen in shock, Bad was fine only moments ago and then he just attacked him, his Best Friend!! Skeppy knew Bad would never hurt him, Dream did something, he must have. He did hear a potion bottle break but Skeppy thought maybe Bad had used a swiftness potion. He looks behind him a few feet and sees the shattered glass and potion remains. ‘Was that a normal potion or something else?’ Skeppy wonders. He tries to get up only to be stopped by the excruciating pain in his arm. It was certainly broken, even through his diamond armor! And although his armor stopped most of the damage he still had gashes in his arm from where Bad initially attacked him. Although the injury thankfully wasn’t severe. Skeppy gets his own healing potion and downs it. At this point Ant has made sure Puffy was fine with Tommy and went over to check on Skeppy.
“Are you okay Skep?” Ant asks, his tail flicking and puffed up. Skeppy nods “Yea. Fine.. No. Why would Bad do that?” Antfrost just shakes his head and says “I have no clue, but he looked scared, terrified even. I just don’t know what could have scared him bad enough to lash out! It’s not like him at all!” Skeppy lets out a frustrated sigh and looks to the broken glass in worry. “Ant, help me up.” Antfrost rushes to help him up from his uninjured arm and Skeppy walks weakly to the smashed potion bottle. It doesn’t look like any potion he’s seen. And the smell is rancid. Like a mix between a poison potion and a potion of decay. But the color baffles him most, it’s fluorescent orange with spots of black. He’s certainly never seen it before, and as far as Skeppy knows Bad hasn’t gotten into chemistry recently. It must have been Dream. It had to have been! And Ant was right, Bad would never just lash out like that! He had to tell Puffy before she tried to find Bad again, or worse, fight him.. “Yuck!!! That smells disgusting! What the hell is that?!” Ant exclaims. Skeppy gags at the smell as well, now that a breeze has blown it right in his face. “Dream. A potion Dream made I think, I think it affected Bad somehow. We need to find him and try to reverse its effects.” Ant pipes up “Maybe milk will work? It does with the other potions, surely it would at least weaken the potions effects. And the potion couldn’t last too long anyways.” Skeppy nods and turns to tell Puffy and Tommy, only to find they’ve disappeared. “Shit.”
I’m so tired lol, hope you enjoyed this little idea of mine! It just kinda popped up in my head while I was cleaning and I thought ‘oh, well that’s too interesting to not write down.’ and here we are! Anyways have a good day/night. I may or may not continue this idea, idk yet.

DREAMBLR CENSUS 2023
Hi, hello and welcome everyone to the 2023 Dreamblr census results! 
Let me start by thanking all of you for taking part - I love looking at statistics like that and making this has been a real joy. I hope at least some of you will find the results interesting as well <3
So, first things first - some numbers. 353 people have taken part in the census. There are over 350 people that say ‘yes I am a part of Dreamblr’. That’s amazing! I am so happy to see this community thrive :D 
Now let’s get to the questions.
What continent are you from?
One of the more straightforward questions on this census. 
Tumblr media
The results are not surprising in the slightest - over 85% of the people that have taken the survey are from North America or Europe. 5.9% come from South America, 4.8% from Asia, 1.7% from Australia and Oceania. 4 people decided not to answer and thus became citizens of Antarctica and one person comes from Africa.
What country are you from (optional)?
Before we get to the statistics, it’s important to mention a couple of things. First of all - this question was optional. The survey site let you pass without putting anything in and the question itself had the word ‘optional’ in it. Despite that 2 of the 4 people that chose Antarctica also wrote in the countries they lived in. All in all 270 out of the 353 people decided to answer this question.
Second of all. 
Americans.
For the love of everything holy. 
Please. PLEASE. Decide on one way to call your country.
As I was using google forms, the survey was sensitive to lower- and upper-case letters, which meant that in the end there were 25 versions of the your country’s name, including (but not limited) to: America, Murica (including ‘eagle noise’ once), the U.S, The U.S., u.s, U.S.A., U.S.A, United States, united states, United States of America, United states of america, US, Us, us, USA, USA! and u s of a. 
Special shoutout to the person who just wrote in ‘Arizona’ as well. 
In the end the top 10 (eh kind of) most popular countries on the survey were……
Drumroll please!!
USA - 133 
Canada - 26
Germany - 17
Poland & UK - 8
Brazil - 7
England - 6
Russia - 5
Chile, France, Sweden and the Netherlands - each with 4
Tumblr media
As you can see, I have decided to treat ‘England’ and ‘UK’ as two different answers, since that’s how the survey responders decided to specify their countries.
What age are you?
Another straightforward question. Over 70% of us are between 18 and 25 years old. 13 are 31-45 years old and 8 people decided not to specify their age. 1 person has declared to be over 45 years old. You can see all the answers on this awesome pie chart as well!
Tumblr media
I think it’s pretty cool how while a lot of us are young adults or even still teenagers, there are also older fandom enjoyers among us :D I hope you are all enjoying your time!!
When did you join the fandom?
First of the more fandom-specific questions. And probably the first question, where the answers genuinely surprised me!
Tumblr media
A lot of us are OGs! Either having joined in 2019 or early/late 2020! Those people remember it all - the beginning of Dream SMP, the first vlog, Antfrost’s coming out and even the beginning of manhunts in some cases!
Out of the rest, early 2021 was another popular entry point to the fandom. Which shouldn’t surprise anyone either - it was still during the pandemic, probably the peak of Dream’s (and Dream Team’s/Dream SMP’s popularity). 
9 people did not remember when they joined the fandom.
Similarly, 9 people are newbies! They’ve joined us in late 2022, while 23 joined in early 2022. 
No one has joined in 2023 yet. (or haven’t seen the census. also possible.)
Who is your main?
This is a question that I could have made better in hindsight. I think a better answer than ‘I can’t decide’ would be ‘I like them all equally’, since I was assuming that all participants of the census did like the Dream Team members either way. It’s not a big mistake, just a small note I wanted to add.
Tumblr media
To most likely no one’s surprise - the most popular person among Dreamblr’s population is Dream (224), followed by George (63) and Sapnap (15). 51 participants couldn’t decide on one of them.
Who do you watch besides the DTeam the most (out of other mcyts)? Please list 3 people max.
This question caused more problems than I'd imagined. Guys. I was asking about other MCYT (aka Minecraft Youtubers and Streamers) besides the DTeam. That means that I had to unfortunately eliminate some answers, the most popular out of which was Hasan, who I don’t think has ever played Minecraft before.
To answer some of you, who had some doubts about who counts as a MCYT….
Yes, Wilbur Soot does count.
Yes, Charlie Slimecicle also counts.
Yes, Hermits also count.
I am also counting Ludwig, since he did make Minecraft content.
PeteZahHutt also counts.
Corpse Husband counts as well, since he is technically a DSMP member.
RTGame counts as well - again, Minecraft content on his channel.
Again - Hasan does not count.
So now, without further ado… The top 10 most popular answers!
Tumblr media
I have also not counted answers that went over 3 people (as in, I have only counted the first 3 names).
If any of you were wondering - 8 people really wish Hasan did play Minecraft.
Which Dream content is the best content?
Another easy question with an easy answer, where most people either prefer Dream’s Youtube content or just love it all.
Quick shout out to the two people who love Dream’s music the most and two who prefer other content than specified in the survey. 
Tumblr media
What got you into the fandom?
The toughest question to count. I did not expect so many different answers, so in the end I’ve decided to sort all the answers into a few categories (and I am sorry about that I know it’s not the best way to go about it, but here you guys can see all the answers to the question in an google spreadsheet if you want to).
dnf (answers included: ao3, heatwaves, dnf compilations on youtube or tiktok…)
manhunts (answers included: youtube recommendation of manhunts, binge watching manhunts…)
art (answers included: sad-ist animations, art in general, cosplays…)
lore (answers included: Dream SMP, lore vods…)
Other MCYT creators (answers included: SMP live, wilbur soot’s videos…)
Friend/family member recommendation
Among us streams
Twitter (answers included: seeing drama, twitter trending page…)
Other Dream Team content (answers included: other Dteam videos, tiktoks by them…)
Fandom (answers included: a tumblr mutual started posting about them, tiktok compilations, youtube compilations…)
Hot (answers included: found George/Sapnap hot)
I don’t remember
Tumblr media
And finally. The last question of the census. The one we all have been wondering about.
Have you been here since before the face reveal?
As it turns out…
Only 2 people joined us since the face reveal!
Tumblr media
The rest of us has known about this community and about Dream earlier and was waiting the day of the face reveal impatiently.
And that’s it! Thank you once again for taking part, hopefully my rambling won’t make this post too boring to read!
Have a great day/night! <3

Hello, I come to you with a silly prompt!
In what way do you think Dream is disabled/affected post-prison and if he does, what do you think he does to hide it?
So I’ve loved all of the different answers to this, lots of fun. Sorry to be late in the game. Like usual I’m probably gonna make this more complicated than it needs to be. No surprise there though lol XD. But ya know you asked for my thoughts so here are my thoughts, as messy as they are.
See this is hard for me because there is a divide between what we know for sure is canon, what we can speculate in general and what is more fun to imagine. As well as, the difference between Minecraft and our physical world. Because like obviously no one can actually survive living that close to lava, so we have to decide which elements would match our world consequences and which wouldn’t.
Because it’s Minecraft and things aren’t necessary like the real world, I play looser with some of the effects. So things like for example messed up vision from the lava don’t apply. I mean everyone spends times in mines, the nether, even has lava in their house so it’s not something I personally include. The same with things like seizures and such.
When it comes to canon, obviously we know potions exist in this world, but the thing is there is never confirmation of them being used in the prison. They don’t appear in Quackity’s or Sam’s inventory (besides fire res) when they visit and during the visits we get to see, Dream is munching on potatoes to heal. So does that mean he never gets potions since basic food can work to heal in Minecraft or does he get some only with more severe and dangerous injuries or something. Or would he have sustained less serious injuries because the potatoes can only heal so much. Then again canonically Quackity is swinging a diamond sword and a netherite axe around, which aren’t exactly gonna do small damage.
And the thing with scars is that the only scars we know of are from canonical deaths, meaning Dream would probably have some from the other time he went to limbo (or multiple if went multiple times), and Tommy killing him (quite a few actually given how many arrows he took and stuff in staged finale) but there’s not necessarily confirmation of scars other than that, and Quackity can’t exactly take credit for those.
There’s also the question of whether he was dying and respawning as non canon deaths, especially because again Quackity is using some high damage weapons. Though I tend to lean away from believing that since that isn’t shown except with Sam accidentally killing Dream after Techno escapes.
I also don’t personally think he suffered anything super noticeable because the guards in prison as well as Ghostbur and Tommy and even Techno, don’t mention the torture. Ghostbur and Tommy don’t notice anything, Techno has to be told, and the guards like Badboyhalo even after hearing screaming still seems almost unsure of himself. Plus, Antfrost talks about visiting Dream and yet had no clue about the torture until Bad brings it up. So in my mind he doesn’t have anything too mutilated or missing body part wise, because that’d be kinda obvious. This includes eyes and also even missing fingers (though if he is missing one let’s just all agree it’d be his left hand ring finger because of Quackity’s breakup with his fiancés… ;]). (Though if we decide they were using potions then it’s interesting to play around with the idea of Quackity doing something like cutting off his arm and Sam having to fix that like I did in my fanfiction.)
So in my mind, no major cosmetic things, besides being smaller due to poor diet and starvation. Though again, in my mind it’s not quite the same as real world so I don’t like to imagine him as grotesquely skin and bones if that makes sense… (look he can be broken and still pretty ;D).
But despite what I said, I do like to imagine he has scars and I think potions may not have been a staple but probably did happen if Quackity ever went too far. Maybe early on before Quackity mastered his craft a bit more or later when he became more and more enraged and extreme in his desperation to break Dream. Either way, I think it was a rare occasion type deal. And because of that, in my mind he does actually have scars because the potatoes provide poor healing. So other people dying by falling in a hole or fight in a war don’t really have scars from that duo to respawn and potions or golden apples, while Dream deprived of that would have more lasting effects (because as someone with many scars I like to imagine he has some as a testimony to what he went through). This also means that some of his broken bones perhaps didn’t heal properly causing some pain or even having things not quite right. So fingers bent wrong if you really studied them or knees misaligned or whatever. So some sensation of pain at all times is pretty guaranteed. Though even without injuries healed wrong he’d still have chronic pain because scar tissue is very sensitive and messes up the nerves so it freaking hurts, it hurts to move, it hurts to touch, it hurts to use… etc.
One of the things he’d do would obviously be to the cover the scars to hide them from view, because embarrassment, shame, looking weak… etc but he’d definitely do it in really soft and not super tight fitting clothes because again the skin is sensitive.
I sometimes like to imagine that injuries that are obvious and badly healed enough he would like break them and reheal them, maybe even with Punz’s help. In general, though broken bones, concussions and stuff heal on their own given time so even if not the best, things heal eventually and Dream is up and about swinging an axe so it ain’t like he’s too debilitated. Still, moving and stuff would be painful and he’s definitely not in shape like he was so it makes sense why he uses so many pearls all the time and why Tubbo would say to Punz in the finale about killing him, “He was sluggish—he was slow—he was out of practice we took him by surprise.”
Though, I do think sluggish and slow could also be a reference to his mental ability as well, implying he isn’t as quick witted or as good at reacting, something that if you watch that finale fight does align. His counter measures aren’t super fast especially compared to how adaptable and swiftly clever he was before.
Obviously, he likely has Depression, PTSD, and an Anxiety disorder, as a result. Anxiety is the one we seen him at least try to mitigate by finding the most secure place to sleep so he can feel less stressed out, not going out and provoking people to avoid being attacked, kinda blocking out the world and stuff, not great for his depression though nor his PTSD…
I also imagine he’d be the type of person to think he could get over fears and trauma by exposure. Like sleeping in the cell with the lava down to remind himself he doesn’t need to be afraid of it… things like that perhaps. With limited success.
I imagine he has a lot of nightmares so he mitigates this by not sleeping as much as possible. Old habits die hard I guess…
Based off of Bad talking to Antfrost after the prison break about how he thinks someone was coming in and torturing Dream: “Anytime I would go and visit Dream he would be all shaky and he wouldn’t wanna talk.” I’d say Dream does shake, sometimes out of fear, sometimes out of weakness, sometimes out of stress, and sometimes because his body doesn’t work as it should. He mitigates this by trying to build up his strength and change strategies in battle if it ever gets debilitating, like switching to food, pearls, potions or TNT. He does a lot of pearling and running, and he never takes off his armor in fear of what might be around the corner.
Despite living in isolation for so long, he’s not overly social like he used to be. He goes days, weeks even without really talking to anyone between spurts of being overly talkative and needing interaction.
When talking to people, perhaps he hides his hands behind his back when they shake, he wears his mask to hide anything he might feel - fear, panic, sorrow, they can’t really see the tears building in his eyes or falling down his face that way. They can’t even really tell he’s hyperventilating unless they are paying attention.
He likes to do a lot of pushing down his feelings, which worked in the prison, it’s a good way to survive but it’s no way to heal. Maybe he schedules his meltdowns or panic to a later time - He’ll get upset about the fight with Quackity at home, he can’t breakdown in the streets now.
Maybe he spends days feeling numb, not leaving his bed, feeling like there’s no point. It’s better that way, if he doesn’t do anywhere he’s safe. If Punz asks he’ll lie, and Punz won’t believe him but he won’t push either………….
“Purpled, do you know what that does to a man do you know the limits that people have it—it goes beyond those limits its not okay.”

Now that I can breath, that was such an amazing MCC from Scar’s point of view, it was such a roller coaster. Scar, Ranboo, Ant, and Aimsey… I said in the beginning, “Scar’s a master at bows (hot guy), Aimsey is amazing in general, Ranboo is a beast at Hole in the Wall, and Ant is so fucking good at PVP that it’s scary” AND I WAS RIGHT TO SAY “this team is goated! Obviously we’ll win!”
That was a very good MCC… congrats Red Team!!
RAAAAAAAAAAA OH MY GOD YESSSSSSSSSSS RED TEAAAAAAAM

🎶Dudududu🎶 Part2
(Part One) (Part Three) (Part Four) (Part Five)
Ao3 Readers Click Here!
((GlitchNote: This part is kinda short but I think it’s fun. I was inspired after watching Minecraft Speedrunner Spy VS Hunter. I hope you enjoy it! I’m already working on the third part.))
The Hunters and guests watched as a few of the Hunters in Training ran after Dream. RedVelvet stayed behind to help Hannah up.
“He about knocked the wind out of both of us,” Velvet shouted towards the group of onlookers.
George laughed and shouted back, “You're talking, he obviously didn’t.”
With his hand in the air he waited for someone to high-five him for what he thought was a witty remark. Sapnap indulged him but rolled his eyes as he did.
“I suggest you gather resources while the others trail him,” Sam suggested.
Hannah grunted as she got to her feet with the help of Velvet. “Shouldn’t you two be helping us?”
George and Ant looked at each other and then back towards Hannah and RedVelvet.
“The hunt just started,” Ant pointed out.
“And if you need help already might as well give the win to Dream now,” Geogre added smugly.
Hannah rolled her eyes, “Come on, Velvet. We are just wasting time talking to these idiots.”
The two ran in the same direction the others had. As they did Antfrost yelled after them, “You guys can do it! I believe!”
“That was very nice, Ant.” Gia smiled towards him but her glance quickly went to Badboyhalo. He was kneeling in front of an Enderchest rummaging through its contents. Things would appear in his hand and quickly return to their place in the chest. “What are you looking for, Bad?” Gia inquired, moving from where she stood near the other two guests to stand behind the chest Bad was looking through.
“A map,” Bad grumbled.
George’s attention was grabbed at the mention of a map. “My map?”
Bad didn’t look up at him and just nodded.
“Why would MY map be in YOUR EnderChest?”
“I gave it to him when I finished with it the last time I toyed around with it,” Sam interjected.
With a flabbergasted look George struggled to get a sentence out.
Spreen laughed, “Estás bien, Jorge?”
“What’s so special about this ‘map’?” Shadoune added.
George managed to calm himself down enough to answer Shadoune. “That map can see whatever the designated person is seeing.”
“Does the person know that you can see what they are seeing,” Shadoune asked, confused. “That seems to be something that would be considered cheating.”
“Oh it would be,” George agreed. “But it’s never been used in a traditional Manhunt. Dream and I spent weeks enchanting the map to basically be a spyglass. It has its flaws but it works overall.”
“What flaws could a magical enchanted map have?” Gia asked in a curious tone, very intrigued by what could be considered to be a flaw to this group of hunters.
“It won’t work if you are holding something else,” George shrugged. The visitors looked at him puzzled. “If you are holding and using another tool or weapon the map's enchantments seem to cross in a negative way.
“It doesn’t do that anymore. It works now while using other enchanted items,” Sam commented quickly.
“Excuse me?” George looked quickly in Sam’s direction. He was now looking through his own EnderChest, supposedly looking for the map.
“Yeah,” Sam replied. “I managed to get a few more enchantments on it as well as a few pots and it seemed to do the trick.”
“And you didn’t bother to tell me?” George stomped.
Sam just shrugged as he continued to look in the chest before him. “Didn’t think it was that big of a deal.”
“It’s MY map.”
“Then why did Dream have it?” Sam countered.
George couldn’t come up with a reasonable answer. Once he and Dream had tested the map a few times he had put it away in a regular double chest along with a few other projects they had been working on together. If he had wanted to be something that stayed between himself and Dream he should have put the map in an EnderChest. He mentally scolded himself and decided this wasn’t a big deal. A Hunt was underway.
“Forget it,” he huffed as he adjusted his bow over his shoulder. “Come on, Ant. Let’s see where the trainees are at.”
“Alright, George. See you guys later!” AntFrost waved behind him as he followed George.
As the group watched them go off and disappear towards the trees Bad cried out in victory breaking the silence that had settled around them.
“Let's go! I found it.” He carefully pulled out the map from his EnderChest and held it up. “Now let’s see where Dream is headed.”
He silently watched as the map showed clear images of Dreams' surroundings.
Watching over his shoulder Spreen recognized and pointed out that Dream was near a ruined portal.
“Looks like that muffinhead is headed to the Nether soon,” he reached over and clapped Sapnap on the back. “Ready to head over, son?”
Sapnap laughed as he pulled out an enchanted Eye of Ender. “Let's get going. Who’s coming?”
((GlitchNote: Thank you so much for reading! I honestly didn’t think there would be more to the story but creativity is a strange thing. But I’m taking what I can get. It has been a minute since I’ve had this much drive to write and I’m loving it. Again thank you so much for reading! I hope you enjoyed and are looking forward to the next part!))

First off I love your role shuffle au, I've been following it since September or November and I've been in love with it the entire time.
Second I was trying to figure out who's who and I think I've got most of them but I cannot figure out who Jack is. At first I thought maybe he's Quackity but I'm pretty sure Schlatt is Quackity. So maybe Ponk, Purpled, or Skeppy?
But other than him and the og L'manburg crew: there's Fundy as Jack?
Antfrost as George
Skeppy as Punz
Ranboo as Niki
Schlatt as Quackity
Hannah as Schlatt or BBH (her red eye thing and the fact that they mentioned she was a bit off even then is why I'm thinking maybe BBH but the rest seems more like Schlatt)
And Tubbo as Karl? (If so I will cry, I love both of there stories so much)
Anyway love the comic!!
Thank you so much!!
I will go ahead and confirm that Hannah is Schlatt, and you're right in all areas accept one: Tubbo. The role's relatively minor, so it might not be clear for a while.
On the other side of things, the character who's in the role of Karl has shown up, but since Karl isn't super pertinent to the plot right now, it may not be immediately clear. But don't worry!! All will be revealed eventually...
Anyways, I'm really glad you're enjoying the comic!! Thank you so much for your support!

Dream and Bella Poarch in the Dolls mv....
IM INSANE ABOUT THEM ANON I REALLY AM.
The drama, the spectacle, Dream in that dark cloak with his mask all ominous and freaky GOD with Bella all confident and furious, stalking in to kill him???? Incredible 10/10
Also I have SO MANY QUESTIONS like why did he make the dolls? Did he even make the dolls or does he just own the company? Grimes was 100% an attack doll so why did he make HER??? Was she specifically for the purposes of defending him or...?
I have a bunch of ideas/aus about the dolls mv but I NEED to know what's canon even if it's disappointing like PLEASEEEEEE let me know I need ANSWERS.
ALSO I need a confrontation and a fight because I want to see Dream lunge at her with like an axe or something (like manhunt or whatever) OH WAIT THAT WOULD BE SO SICK what if she went and got Sapnap/George/Antfrost/Bad/Sam to help find him and hunt him down.
Not to mention the almost religious themes of someone hunting down the god that made them... my mormon trauma loves that.... ohhhhhhh I'm insane about them I'm really insane about them

The long awaited Eggpire fic is finally done : )
Content warnings: soft, safe, g/t vore, panic, fear, crying, character believing they’re in danger, mentions of violence/death, mentions of schlatt
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
“Bad, this is going too far. Even you have to admit that.” Skeppy stood firm against the glare the demon fixed him with. “What do you mean?” “You- the red banquet? Trying to murder everyone? That’s too far.” “They threatened us. What else was I to do but make an example?” “Bad. You’re talking about people’s fucking lives!” “Language- And they threatened us! They killed Antfrost!” “After you killed Foolish! All over this stupid egg!” “It is not stupid!” “Come on, Bad! You’re gonna put this egg ideology over the lives of your friends?”
Bad stopped, thinking over his response, but Skeppy didn’t want to hear it. When he heard what had happened, he couldn’t fathom what had happened to his friend. Bad had never been this hostile before, and now he didn’t even care that he was murdering people. He wasn’t going to keep trying to pull him out of this mindset when he obviously didn’t want to leave it. He moved towards the door, not missing the sudden raise in Bad’s voice.
“Where are you going!?” “I’m done, Bad. I’m not doing this anymore. You obviously care for this egg more than you care for your friends, and I’m not waiting to be the next person killed.” “What- you can’t leave! Skeppy, I’d never threaten you!” His demeanor changed in a snap, and he crossed the room to try and stop the gem golem. “No, Bad. If you refuse to change, I can’t just stand by anymore. I’m not gonna sit by and just excuse you hurting people.”
Bad was barely paying attention, mind running a million miles a second. But.. the egg promised! The egg promised that Skeppy wouldn’t be taken from me? Why is he leaving? He can’t.. he can’t! “No! You can’t leave.” He slammed the door shut, standing between the wood and his friend. His closest friend, who he didn’t even notice backing away as a wary look came to his face. “Bad.. you can’t trap me here.” “But you can’t leave! Skeppy, please-“ “Bad, I’m not standing by and letting you hurt people. Let me out, or I’m breaking the window.” “No.. no! You’re not leaving!” Skeppy backed up further, looking for the closest window and trying to hide his panic. He needed to go get help, he needed to get away before-
Glass shattered at his feet, and Skeppy didn’t even get the chance to see what potion it was before it took effect, his fear only making the vertigo worse as he fell to his knees. He felt like he couldn’t breathe, unable to keep his eyes open as everything began to spin. The last thing he heard as his mind darkened was Bad sighing heavily, louder than before. “I didn’t want to do this, Skeppy. You pushed me to do this.”
When he woke up, he was somewhere warm, which immediately set off his red flags. His eyes snapped open and confirmed his fear: Bad was holding him. Bad shrunk him, and held him with both hands, the same gentleness he was used to present. But it meant nothing to him now. All he could think of was Bad’s intentions. “Bad, what are you going to do to me?” He didn’t bother sitting up, trying to meet the demon’s gaze. But the white eyes wouldn’t stay focused on his own, it seemed that guilt was starting to settle in. “I can’t let you leave me.” “That doesn’t answer my question.” Skeppy stated nervously, pulling himself to a sitting position. He wanted to be ready to jump if he had to. He prayed it wouldn’t come to that point, but his friend had turned himself into a broken record and he wasn’t trusting anything that came out of his mouth.
“I’m not going to let you leave me.” “Bad..” agitation built up, mixing with his nerves and creating a whirlwind that made his veins ice and his heart race. It only grew worse as he was lifted above his friend’s face, staring down into the large maw below. He… wasn’t serious, was he? Apparently he was, because before he could even open his mouth, he was dropped in. Instantly, he began to struggle against the steep incline, risking grabbing at the other’s fangs to get leverage. “Don’t do this, Bad!” Normally, the gem wouldn’t be so concerned, it was far from the first time he’d been stored by the demon. But.. with the way he was talking, and the lack of morals the man had been showing lately… he wasn’t so sure this time.
Alas, gravity was not his friend, and he slipped right back to the other’s throat and was swallowed quickly. His panic rose tenfold, and he thrashed wildly in the tight confines, desperation filling his every move. Even as he slipped further down, and into the other’s stomach, he still thrashed. “Let me out!” He hadn’t expected a reply. “No. You tried to leave. I’m not letting you leave me, Skeppy.” “Bad, you can’t keep me here..” “I didn’t want to do this. You gave me no choice.” “Bad-“ “No. I’m going to make sure you don’t leave me again, even if it’s by keeping you in there.” The brunette tried not to let his fear show, he really did. But.. he didn’t even know if Bad had stored him or if he was in his actual stomach, and the way he was talking was not giving him any idea where he was. He didn’t even realize he began to shake until something rubbed against him.
“Don’t be upset, Skeppy. I’m not going to hurt you.” Ignoring the larger’s words, he curled up. What else was he supposed to do? His communicator settled against his thigh, and he gasped. Well… there was something he could do..
~ ~ ~
Sapnap had Quackity pinned to the floor, laughing at the squirming avian beneath him. His face was flushed red, and his breathless gasps were interrupted by giggles as the fireborn’s hands skittered against his sides. “Stop- Sapnap!” He laughed, unable to buck the other off him. The only break he got was when the netherborn’s communicator rang out, and he sat back to retrieve it from his pocket. “Who-“ he cut off, residual giggles still escaping him. “Who is it?”
A frown settled onto Sapnap’s face. “Skeppy..” he answered. His adopted father hadn’t gotten in touch with him since Bad had started getting too involved with the egg thing, and Quackity shared Sapnap’s own views on the whole situation. Despite that, Skeppy didn’t normally call unless something was wrong. God, had he wished he was wrong.
“Skeppy?” “Sapnap, you have to help me.” The gem was quiet, voice hushed and shaking. It was so unlike him that it shifted the entire mood of the room, the fireborn getting up and heading to the door. “What happened?” “Bad, he ate me. I don’t know- I don’t know if he stored me, he won’t talk to me. All he keeps saying is I can’t leave him.” A shuddery sob came through the communicator, and it made him move faster, yanking the door open so harshly it creaked on its hinges. “Sapnap?” Quackity questioned, but his mind was focused entirely on his conversation at hand. “Is he at his home or yours?” “I think he’s still at the mansion, he won’t answer any of my questions otherwise. I don’t know his intentions-“ “I’m on my way. Just hang tight, I’ll get you out of there.” “I’m sorry-“ “Not your fault. I bet that stupid egg has to do with it.” He was already well on his way towards the prime path.
He didn’t get off the call until Skeppy admitted that knowing he was coming to save him comforted him enough to end the call. Only then did he register the second set of footsteps behind him, and he turned and saw Quackity trailing him. “Qua-“ “I don’t know what’s going on, but if that egg’s involved with it I am too.” “Bad has Skeppy trapped, won’t let him leave.” “Trapped how?” They were walking again, getting closer to the prime path. “He ate him. Skeppy can’t even tell me if he was stored or not, he’s shaken up pretty bad.” “For fucks sake. This is going too far, I don’t know how Bad doesn’t even realize how he’s ruining everything he claims he’s doing all this egg shit for to begin with.”
“I don’t know, Quackity. I don’t know.” His own thoughts were whirling, concern and worry and anger clouding his mind. He didn’t want to hurt Bad, he really didn’t. But… he wasn’t going to stand by and watch him hurt his stepdad. It should have never gotten to this point. He shouldn’t have let it get to this point. Exhaling deeply, he didn’t miss the smoke that filled the air. Quackity didn’t either, a frown tugging his lips further down. “Don’t blame yourself, Sap. Let’s just get this taken care of.” Stepping up to the front door, Quackity rolled his shoulders back before knocking loudly on the door.
“Bad? It’s Quackity. Just want to check in.” Sapnap had to admire how well he hid the anger he displayed not a moment before, sounding friendly and chipper. And it was that hidden anger, the fake positivity, that led to the door opening and Bad peering out. “Oh, hey Quackity, Sapnap. Do you guys wanna come in?” “Yeah, if you don’t mind.” The demon stepped aside, opening the door for the others to step in. Sapnap didn’t miss where his dad’s other hand lay, over his abdomen but high enough that his shoulders relaxed slightly. Thank Prime, he actually stored him. Bad led them to the couch, saying he’d be back with some drinks before walking towards the kitchen. “Did you see where his hand was?” Quackity whispered. “Over where our storage is. He stored him.” “Good. But how are we gonna get him out?” “Anyway we can.” Bad returned to the living room with some water, setting it on the coffee table in front of the two before he took a seat opposite them.
“So, how have you guys been?” “Pretty alright, Las Nevadas’ been keeping me busy and Karl’s doing okay right now. Sap?” “Yeah, Kinoko’s doing good. How have you and Skeppy been?” The demon visibly wilted at the mention of Skeppy, but Sapnap kept his expression casual, neutral. He had to. “We got into it a little bit ago, about some.. stuff.” “Sorry to hear that.” Quackity mumbled. “Is he still around?” “Oh, uh…” They knew they had him pinned, Bad couldn’t lie to save his life. Sapnap thought about starting the confrontation then and there, but Quackity’s hand tightening around his own stopped him. “He said he had to.. do some stuff.” “Right, yea. Stuff pertaining to the egg, maybe?” Both demon and son sucked in a harsh breath at the avian’s words. “No, you know he’s not a fan of it.” “Well, I can’t really think of anywhere else he’d be. This is his house, after all.” “I didn’t do anything to him. I don’t know what you’re trying to accuse me of-“ “Bad. We know the truth.” Sapnap finally stepped in, cutting the argument short.
A stunned silence filled the room, nobody knowing how to respond to the bombshell the fireborn just dropped. “..what?” “Skeppy called me. He told me everything. The fight, you storing him, you not even telling him he was stored- Bad, you made him think you were going to kill him.” “What!? No! I’d never hurt Skeppy-“ “But you have. You’re not even realizing your actions anymore, Bad. You’ve hurt him since the moment you let that egg overtake your life.” Quackity stopped him, standing up. His movements were slow, his body language neutral. “You’re hurting him now, by trapping him inside you and not letting him free. And for what? An egg that tells you what you wanna hear?”
“But…” Bad’s voice had quieted, becoming more vulnerable than either fiancé expected it to. “The egg promised me that Skeppy wouldn’t leave me..” “By trapping him?” Sapnap countered. “Bad. The egg is the reason Skeppy’s leaving you. If you really don’t wanna lose him, let him go. Stop the whole egg cult thing you have going on. If you can’t do that? You’re gonna lose everyone. Skeppy, me, Sapnap, everyone you care about. Don’t think I’ve forgotten the Red Banquet so quickly.”
Bad couldn’t help it. Tears began to stream down his face as he took in the avian’s words, hands starting to shake as he thought about everything he’d done thus far for the egg. Everyone he’d tricked, everyone he’d hurt. And for what? For the egg to not do what was promised. “Oh my gosh..” “You can fix this, Bad. We can help you. But you have to let us.” Stifling a sob, he looked up to Quackity first, then met Sapnap’s gaze. “What do I do?” “You let dad out.” The fireborn spoke softly, matching his fiancé’s tone. He nodded, pressing down harshly into his abdomen. Not a moment later and he gently spit the gem into his hand, only wanting to cry harder at the trembling form. “I’m sorry, Skeppy..” he went to dry him off with his sleeve, yanking his hand back when the other flinched away. Sapnap gently took him from Bad’s hands, drying him off himself.
“Bad.” Sapnap had to keep his resolve firm when he saw the demon’s face. He looked like someone had just kicked his dog out the window. “Skeppy’s gonna stay with me and Q for a while. He needs time to recover. I can’t tell you when- or if- he will forgive you. All we ask is that you don’t go back to the egg while we help him. Okay?” “Okay. I’m not going to go back to it. I’ll distance myself, I’ll go hide in the nether-“ “Just do whatever you need to. I’ll be back to check on you, okay?” Quackity rested a hand on his shoulder, giving him a soft smile. Bad couldn’t return it, but he nodded regardless. “I'm so sorry..” “We accept your apology. But give us some time to recover first, and we’ll see about forgiveness, okay?” “Okay..”
“Can you stay here, or do you need someone to stay with you? I think Dream’s free..” “I can- I can stay alone. I’ll stay at my house.” “Alright, I’ll see you after a while.” Bad nodded, seeing the other two- three out before closing the door himself, locking it so nobody could break in. His emotions finally got the better of him, and he fell to his knees, wrapping his arms tightly around himself. He prayed he hadn’t messed up so badly he lost everyone. He couldn’t handle it, being left alone with nobody all because of the egg controlling his mind.
But only time could tell. After he’d cried himself out, he got up, wiping the tears away, and started towards his own home. All he could do now is wait, and give them the space and time they needed. But one thing was certain for him: He is not going to let the egg get away with hurting anyone else.
~ ~ ~
Karl was pacing the floor when the trio returned to the home, picking at his nails and colors rapidly shifting in his eyes. When he noticed them, he had to stop himself from jumping into their arms. “Where have you guys been!” “Skeppy’s. We had to take care of the egg situation.” The brunette gasped, eyes shifting colors rapidly again before settling to his normal color. “What happened?” “Bad stored Skeppy, wouldn’t let him out. Skeppy’s staying with us for a while.” It was then that his gaze trailed down to his fiancé’s hand, and he nodded. “I’ll get a growth potion.”
Once the gem was grown back to his normal height, Karl ushered everyone to the dining room and dished up dinner, a simple meal of chicken Alfredo. Setting one in front of Skeppy, he wasn’t too surprised to see him push it away slightly. “Skeppy..” Sapnap started. Guilt and worry clouded the man’s eyes, and he pulled the plate back to him.
Don’t think about it, don’t think about it, don’t think about it-
Scooping up a forkful of the pasta, he put it in his mouth and focused solely on chewing it. It could have been his body crushing under the- he slapped a hand over his mouth, shuddering at the image. “Skeppy?” Quackity looks worried, as well as Karl. The brunette was just about to open his mouth, tell Skeppy he didn’t have to eat tonight, but he shook his head, pulling his hand away. Forcing a few deep breaths through his nose, he swallowed the mouthful.
It’s him. He’s squirming and screaming and pleading, but Bad’s ignoring him, angry at him, he’s scared, he doesn't want to die-
He didn’t even know he’d started crying until Karl pulled his chair away from the table, plate having been shoved away so forcefully it flipped over. Sapnap was hot on the other’s heels, crouching down in front of him with borderline fear in his eyes. “Breathe, Skeppy. You gotta breathe.” Karl’s hands ran up and down his shoulders, starting to coach him through breathing exercises while Sapnap warmed his hands with his own. “I don’t- I can’t-“ “Skeppy, you’re at my house. He’s not here.” Quackity had started cleaning the table, smiling when he realized he’d caught the gem’s attention. “He’s not gonna get you here.” Hesitantly, he nodded, and Quackity waited until he looked back to his son to continue clearing the table. Karl regained his attention, walking him through more grounding exercises until Skeppy felt that he wasn’t still panicking.
With the adrenaline leaving his system, it flooded with guilt. He’d ruined their dinner, and he was already being a burden on them when they were changing their whole lives to account for him as well. “…I’m sorry, guys.” “It’s fine, dad.” Sapnap looked apprehensive, as if the title was too much. He made sure to smile at him, the grin becoming more genuine as his son’s shoulders slumped. “You don’t have anything to be sorry for.” “Yeah, how about we turn on a movie or something? Get our minds off tonight? Fundy helped me set up our TV.” Quackity strolled back into the dining room, shirt slightly wet from washing the dishes.
He nodded, eager to distract himself and the others, and Sapnap helped him up and walked with him to the couch. He sat at the end, wanting the fiancés to sit together and tried his best to pay attention to the film.
He was exhausted, to say the least. His body felt achy and sore from struggling, his mind completely overwhelmed and borderline shut off. He wanted so badly to sleep, to let his eyes close and rest up. Just as he’d managed to convince himself to shut his eyes, it happened. A character on the screen spoke to another one, told them that they weren’t letting them go. Skeppy was off the couch and halfway up the stairs to the guest room he was staying in before he even realized what was going on, and he tried to slam the door behind him only for it to get caught. Instead of the intruder coming in, they softly closed the door and leaned against it. “Skeppy, it’s Q. Is it okay for me to come in?”
He couldn’t answer, his mind was buzzing and every nerve in his body felt like it was on fire, he needed to run, to hide, to do something..! “It’s okay, you don’t have to. But can you at least breathe with me?” The avian began counting up to seven, down from four, then up to seven again, instructing the gem to inhale and exhale to his counts. It was difficult, his brain kept getting tangled up with panic, but after the fifth time he’d finally managed to get the hold of it. Quackity walked him through the breathing exercise fifteen times before he felt comfortable enough to stop, waiting patiently for the other to get his thoughts together.
He hadn’t expected the door to open. He looked up to the man, offering a kind smile. “Doing better?” He nodded hesitantly, opening the door wider and stepping aside to let him in. The avian led him to the bed, sitting him down and sitting beside him with a wing draped around the gem’s shoulders. “I’m sorry, Quackity. I’m sorry to all of you, I know this is the last thing you all probably want to deal with and it’s stupid and it wasn’t even that big a deal-“
“Skeppy.” Quackity cut his rambling off, putting a hand on his other shoulder. His face was oddly stern, and nothing short of serious. “Something like this isn’t going to disappear overnight. You went through a really traumatic experience, you have to give yourself time to heal. Take it from me, I’ve been there twice now. And me, Karl and Sapnap are gonna be here every step of the way, okay?” “I..guess.” A pause, and then Quackity gained a certain look in his eyes.
“When I first started living with and dating Sap and Karl, after Schlatt, I thought I’d never recover. I flinched away from their touch, apologized every time I cut them off or said something they obviously didn’t like, I was just a husk.” Skeppy looked surprised, wary but didn’t say anything. He wasn’t sure where the other was going with it, but he wanted him to continue. “I was barely present, always overthinking my actions and words because I was scared to get hurt again. It took me a very long time to get over that. Hell, I’m still not over him. There’s times where hearing the word Pumpkin pushes me over the edge and I spiral. It was a lot of adjusting to each other, Sapnap and Karl forcing me out of my comfort zone at the time so that I knew it was okay to start being who I actually was, and.. here we are. It took us a long time to get to this point, several months, honestly. And I did the same thing you did, panicked over every little thing, and I felt horrible every single time. But those two never let me stay guilty for long.”
“I’m not saying it’ll take that long for you to recover, or that it’ll never happen, but you do have to forgive yourself for acting out in fear. We all do, and will every time something happens that makes you afraid. It’s not worth beating yourself up over every time it happens. We all know how that kind of shit works, we know you don’t mean to panic or seem disrespectful.” Skeppy had no words. He didn’t want to seem rude, like Q had mentioned, but he just had no words to everything he’d just been told. As he mulled over everything, Quackity patted his shoulder again. “Try to get some sleep, okay? We’ll be here if you need us.”
Skeppy nodded, ducking under the covers as Quackity took his leave, and soon after he discovered he could hear through the guest room walls. For better or for worse..
“Sapnap, how are we gonna get him to eat?” “Karl-“ Quackity started, but he stopped when Sapnap also began to speak. “I don’t know, but forcing him to isn’t gonna do anything but make him scared of us. He’s a gem golem, they don’t have to eat a whole lot anyway. It may be best if we just leave him be. He needs time to process and recover.”
Skeppy heard their conversation through the wall, sighing softly into the cover he had tucked under his chin. He didn’t mean to worry everyone, he just… he didn’t know what he wanted. Maybe he just wanted to be off grid for a while, but..
They had a point. He wouldn’t take care of himself if he was alone. Plus, Sapnap hadn’t yet calmed down. He’s known the fireborn long enough to know his tells, the flicking of his tail and shifting of his eyes, hiding his hands from everyone and not touching anything easily burnable. The only difference was when he forced himself calm to calm him. The best thing he could do is stay here, at least he knows they won’t ask him about Bad or try to send him back to him.
Maybe he should try to sleep, at least.
~ ~ ~
Karl made him a smoothie the next morning, believing it to be easier for him to drink than try to eat. Quackity had already left for Las Nevadas, and Sapnap was taking on his and Karl’s jobs for the day, therefore leaving the brunette and the gem golem alone.
“It’s okay if it still doesn’t work, I just want to try everything I can first..” he sat down at the table, working on a pancake of his own while Skeppy took the empty seat. “I appreciate it, Karl. Maybe it will work.” Karl offered an encouraging smile but didn’t push him to try it, simply eating his pancake and looking over his memory book. Between bites, he picked up a quill, dipping it into the ink pot and then writing a sentence.
“What is that?” Skeppy gave the smoothie a single sip, trying to distract himself so he could actually get it down. “It’s my memory book. I.. don’t think you’re aware, but my memory isn’t all there anymore, so I’ve been trying to keep a book so I can remind myself of events and people if I forget them.” “Oh. I’m sorry, Karl.” Despite that, Skeppy found himself wanting that ability. He just wanted to forget that yesterday happened at all.
“It’s alright. I’m just glad it hasn’t caused me to lose anyone yet. I know the gap between El Rapids and now was pretty rough for me to remember Quackity, but thankfully we were able to work through that.” He sighed, setting the quill down and taking another bite. “Yea, I get that.” He really didn’t, but he could imagine the argument that the fiancés must have had the night Quackity found out about Kinoko Kingdom, especially after what the avian told him last night. He was glad that they’d managed to work things out.
He hadn’t even realized he’d been drinking the smoothie until a loud noise startled both of them, the noise that usually came from trying to drink from an empty cup. He looked down, shocked at the fact that he hadn’t even realized he’d drunk the whole cup, and Karl’s eyes turned scarlet as a smile came to his face. “Oh, that’s great!” The gem chuckled, feeling a little better with something actually on his stomach. Better than the nausea he’d been battling thinking about eating solid food, at least.
Karl took his plate to the kitchen, grabbing the other’s cup and taking it with him. “Oh, wait, I can help-“ “You don’t have to, it’s okay! I got it.”
~ ~ ~
They continued like this for a month, the situation falling further to the back of his mind. He became excited with his own progress, from being able to sleep without nightmares, to being able to hear the demon’s name without panicking, to even being able to eat a whole meal without once getting sick or panicked.
Finally, the day came where he felt he would be okay on his own again. Sapnap walked him back to the mansion, an eye kept out for any glimpse of his other father. Though, nothing was out of the ordinary, except for the pile of letters sitting on the staircase. “What the..?” Skeppy knelt down, scooping them into his hands. There were quite a few from Bad, which he decided to look into later, but one stood out the most to him: The one from his rival, Technoblade.
Sapnap led him into the house, taking the letters from Bad and setting them on the table while he opened the remaining letter, reading it under his breath.
-Skeppy,
Normally I wouldn’t reach out like this, but I’ve visited twice already and you won’t open the door. It’s not like you to not reach out, usually you’ve got a prank or a troll up your sleeve for me if for nobody else. Just wanted to make sure the egg fanatic didn’t get you, respond if you receive this.
From, Technoblade.
He sighed, rereading the letter. “What does he want?” “He wanted to make sure I was still alive.” Sapnap snorted, patting him on the back. “Well, I’ll let you sort that out yourself. See ya around, Skeppy.” “You too, Sapnap.”
He waited until the other had left the mansion and was out of sight before he set the letter down, heading back out the door and towards the nether portal. He had a trip to make.
~ ~ ~
“Hey.” To say that Wilbur was surprised when he’d opened the door was an understatement, and normally he’d laugh at the shock but he wasn’t there for the brunette. “Hello?” “I came to talk to Techno.” Nothing more had to be said, as Wilbur stepped back from the door and held it open for him, closing it softly behind the gem. “I think he’s making tea, hang on.” He led the man to the sofa, letting him sit down while he went to the kitchen.
Techno came out of the kitchen a moment later, amusement turning the corners of his lips upwards. “Look who finally decided to reach out.” “Yea, well, you’ll understand why once you hear what happened.” Just like that, the smile faded, and Techno took a seat beside him. “Egg stuff?” “Yeah. I told Bad I didn’t want to be involved with him since he started believing it was okay to murder people over the egg bullshit, and his response was to tell me I couldn’t leave and forcibly shrinking and storing me. He didn’t even tell me that he was storing me, Techno. I thought I was going to die. I had to call my fucking son to come save me, you know how fucking bad things have to be for me to go that far?”
A growl had started reverberating through the piglin’s chest, and he reminded himself it was piglin nature. “So I’ve been at Sapnap’s place. I mean, I couldn’t even eat for the longest time because I just kept getting sick. I.. couldn’t stop imagining it being me.” It was a strange sense of dread and relief that kept him continuing to explain what he’d gone through the past five weeks.
“… and then I found your letter when Sapnap walked me home. So, I figured I owed you an explanation at least.”
Store him
Offer to store him
Comfort him
Kill the egg
Store him-
He shook his head, mentally berating Chat for pushing him to store the traumatized gem. “Tell me he finally gave up on the egg at least.” “I dunno. Quackity’s been keeping tabs on him, you’ll have to ask him. I’m not reaching out to him until I know for sure what’s going through his head again.” Techno nodded, giving the other a pat on his shoulder.
“For what it’s worth, you shouldn’t have had to go through that. We’re rivals, sure, but that doesn’t mean I wish actual harm on you.” “I mean, it wasn’t really-“ “You seem to underestimate how badly mental harm can affect a person.” Wilbur spoke from behind the couch, resting his arms over the top. “I mean, you know about what went down in L’Manburg.” “I… guess.”
Techno silenced chat again, eye twitching as he fought with their voices and his own instincts. “Well, I just wanted to make sure you were okay.” “You kicking me out?” “I-“ “Well, I couldn’t call it kicking you out. More of a suggestion, though I will warn you that Techno seems to be having a hard time with his instincts right now.” the pinkette swung an arm over the couch, attempting to hit the avian as he dodged, snarling at him. “I can speak for myself, Wilbur.” “Mm. Wouldn’t be the first time I hung around someone instinct driven. But I’ll go ahead and leave, I think I’d like to have some alone time for a while.” “That’s fine. Stay safe, Skeppy.” “You too, Techno. Just you wait, I’ll have a troll ready in no time for you.” “You know how to reach me.” The easy grin on the piglin’s face eased a lot of Skeppy’s worries somehow, and he grinned back. “Of course.”
~ ~ ~
Twelve letters. That was the amount of letters that Bad left on his doorstep. After he made dinner, picked up, did literally anything he could to distract himself before his curiosity got the better of him and he finally sat down on the sofa, pulling the first one to him.
Skeppy,
Words cannot describe how sorry I am for everything that has happened between us thanks to this egg situation. I don’t expect forgiveness, I just want to reassure you that I’m not going to go back to it. I’m at the nether house, and I’ll stay here for a good while. You deserve space, and time to recover. And I understand if you decide you don’t want to be around me anymore.
-BadBoyHalo
Each letter after that was simply the other writing down his progress in separating from the egg, destroying the bond he had with it and working to get the others away from it’s control. Quackity was mentioned in those letters a lot, congratulating him on his own progress recovering as Quackity told it. The last letter expressed that he’d finally succeeded, once again expressing how sorry he was, and how he understood if Skeppy decided he never wanted to see him again.
The gem gave a long suffering sigh, rereading the final letter again and again until he finally came to a decision. Pulling out his communicator, he typed up a single message.
Bad, do you wanna come over and talk about what happened over some muffins?
It took less than a minute to get a reply.
I’ll be there whenever you want me there.
Now?
On my way! :)

im doing good hru :D
idk tbh but the voice (even those it's a voice changer) it sounds so so familiar .... hbu?
the mannerisms are soooo similar to the dteam / munchy mannerisms it’s crazy how familiar the titan is but so ??¿?¿¿? at the same time
i reaalllyyy hope it’s callahan that’s my ideal titan pick bc i think it would be so cool to include him more in irl stuff when he’s been just a big part of the dteam behind the scenes !!
but now after seeing this tony clip im leaning more towards him too 👀 i just don’t know how long they’ve known each other for + if tony has a secret niche channel that none of us know about so he’s a possible choice but im not 100% yk
ngl if the reveal ends up being dreams brother im gonna be kind of disappointed bc imo its such a boring choice for this much hype 😭😭 fingers crossed it isn’t pls godd
i love hearing ppls theories about who the titan is it’s so fun to speculate about it bc sometimes ppl mention ppl i either didn’t know about or completely forgot about like someone once mentioning antfrosts twin for example lol
