#so he just stays as las nevadas q

cquackity nation is this anything

[fernlessbastard]

You guys aren't ready for the conversation of how Quackity sincerely loves bottoming

I'm not at all saying he wants to always bottom, I'd say he still prefers topping most of the time, but whenever he's down to get something up his ass, he's DOWN to get something up his ass, if you know what I mean

(the switching applies to position only, tho. I sincerely can't see him genuinely enjoying subbing, and neither can I see Wilbur actually domming unless they're both being influenced by years of internalised homophobia and patriarchy and all that bullshit, but even then it's just cringe and they're just both pretending it's not cause it's easier that way (and the sex itself isn't like, actively bad, not to mention that it provides some degree of an emotional connection which they both desperately crave), plus it's still basically vanilla just with a little bit of dirty talk - that's how i see them in Pogtopia (with Q bottoming - if you want another huge post on their Pogtopia dynamic let me know cause I have so many thoughts on it and how their traumas affected them and their relationship and how complicated it all was))

That being said, man's 10000% intensely fucking traumatised

(tw personal hc and following the logical path from canon implications idfk)(also exaggeration) like, if he were ACTIVELY evil and had ZERO (even personal) moral code, then the amount of anger he feels towards Schlatt for taking away the enjoyment of it is probably enough to ignore all ethics and torture Dream so utterly unimaginably he ends up violating entirety of the Geneva convention, and then having 50 new ones written specifically to condemn his actions, just to break every single one of those as well on the way, just so that Dream gives him the revival book so that he can re-kill Schlatt with his own hands

Also he absolutely re-traumatised himself with Karl and Sapnap cause he was for sure like "I shouldn't be having an intense panic attack right now, I'm going to push all my energy into pretending that everything's ok and that I don't want to cry and scream and rip my skin off. I'm just being silly and dramatic anyway ha ha" which just resulted in them unknowingly hurting him all over again. I take no criticism. Q's got MASSIVE communication issues when it comes to validating his feelings and Karl and Sapnap are "everything's fine"-ing way too much on the daily. And whole Quackity should work on his issues, it IS a partner's job to at least try to check up on the other(s) (and vice versa), and Karl and Sapnap clearly always preferred to ignore any hints that something might be wrong as a general life rule. The relationship was immaturely focused on "fun and good vibes" from the very start, so any bad topic obviously felt out of place. It started off with lack of communication and it died cause of it too.

That's also actually why I will always firmly stand by the fact that Wilbur (during las Nevadas era) is the only person with whom he could ever heal, btw (yes, including Charlie as a hypothetical romantic interest). Cause Schlatt's abusive, Karl and Sapnap "deserve better" in his eyes (so he pretends to be fine until shit hits the fan and everything falls apart)(that also applies to his hypothetical relationship with Charlie). But with Wilbur there's enough distance to feel safe and call out his bullshit without retaliation in form of abuse, and on the other hand he doesn't care to pretend to be perfect - hell, he probably purposefully shoves his issues onto the guy cause he's like "you think you're so strong and stubborn you can handle me??? You think???? Think again." (Wilbur does the same btw). They're purposefully trying to push each other away, destroy the "relationship", show each other just how fucked up they are. They're psycho-competitive. Even being the first one to be "too much" and get abandoned turns into a competition.

But it backfires. They bond. They're real with each other. They're stubborn, they're determined enough to stay just long enough to see each other's walls crack. And once they do, the feelings are quick to spill. They're each other's only people to be GENUINELY themselves with - no masks, no manipulation, no bullshit. Just themselves. And that's the first, CRUCIAL step to developing a healthy relationship (or at least healthier than all their other relationships).

So with Wilbur he probably only tries to bottom either once he ACTUALLY begins to feel like he could maybe try to reclaim it, or even if he tries it in a self-destructive way, (considering their history+patriarchy and shit) Wilbur'd know and care enough to realise Q's just trying to hurt himself. And as shitty as Wilbur can be sometimes, he's not a bad person - he'd stop Q if things'd go too far, or give him (at least a temporary) safe space to safely go through a breakdown without hurting himself like that. He wouldn't take advantage of such a low moment, and he would know enough to recognise it's a low moment in the first place.

Anyway once they figure all that out and Quackity's genuinely comfortable with it again, it's for sure not uncommon for him to enjoy some nice aggressive pounding, all the while having one hand in Wilbur's hair, pulling it to hold him close, and the other hand on Wilbur's neck, lightly choking him as they're intensely making out

All that to say Q's a massive sadist but he's also a huge massochist and he'll absolutely have Wilbur on a nice leash and call him a pathetic, desperate, horny dog or something like that as the man's (purposefully) sloppily thrusting in and out of him, causing the most "carnage" he can (Wilbur will be double fisting Quackity and Quackity will be just looking at him unfazed like "your hands are small" (they're not)/hj)

Oh btw to clarify [TW ok more direct talk of SA so please be careful and take care of yourselves]- yes, I'm absolutely saying Q got repeatedly SA'd by Schlatt throughout their relationship. The guy was canonically generally verbally and physically abusive, AND basically the whole point of his character is that he's like, the epitome of everything wrong with society. Add to that the sexual comments which were constantly used to demean, insult, and objectify Q, as well as Quackity's intense, palpitable discomfort which noticeably grows each time the topic comes up when they meet after Schlatt's death during Las Nevdas era, it's a pretty safe bet to assume Schlatt didn't stop at "just" verbal and physical violence. Sexual violence is almost a guarantee when you consider all that context - it's hardly even "reading between the lines". And you can't tell me that in our society that views being penetrated during sex as something negative, especially for men, while viewing penetrating someone as an act of "conquering" and "winning" and all that a character who's supposed to embody as many of this world's faults as possible wouldn't shove his dick where it's not wanted, even just purely to prove he can despite lack of consent.

[mioakem]

anyone else ever think abt pre revival ctntduo? cause i do. like just think abt it. cq and cwil have always had their eyes on the other, but due to political rivalries and cschlatt, they never got to act upon their feelings. but then cq joins pogtopia and ya, they’re both a little bit fucked up, but they find solace in eachother. quackity sees it as love, maybe it’s cause he just got out of a shitty and abuse relationship, but he truly loves wil. Wilbur sees it as casual, right? he’s not planning on living past november 16th, so no use in falling in love now, right? wilbur begins to trust q, he trusts him enough to show him his plans. q is mortified, he tries his best to stop him. after that, q is more hesitant towards wil. they stop spending the nights together, and q starts avoiding him all together. it’s fine, ofc, it was casual, just like wil had thought. the nights are so much colder. when november 16th comes around, q is scared, mainly for wil. he doesn’t want to lose him, even though he already did. but, it doesn’t matter, wilbur dies.

quackity grieves, but only in the late hours of the night. no one knew about him and wil, and no one ever will. it was casual, no matter how much q didn’t want to believe that. q doesn’t let himself grieve forever, he picks himself up, he works with tubbo and tommy to rebuild what wilbur had destroyed. he tries to forget about the man he loved, but there’s always that lingering feeling. he starts seeing karl and sapnap, they’re good to him, they love him. he loves them as well, of course, why wouldn’t he? there’s no lingering smells of cigarettes, no grimy trench-coats, no matted curly hair. but there’s also no adrenaline to it, no stolen glances and secret meetings in the dark corners of the ravine. but he ignores it, and he stays with them, because they’re good to him, and he needs to learn that that kind of love is good for him.

then he shows up. at first, he thought it was his mind playing tricks on him, but no, he was face to face with wilbur’s ghost. quackity doesn’t know what to feel, so he doesn’t. he tries to ignore the ghost, but he’s a persistent one. quackity quickly learns that ghostbur’s memory isn’t the best. he learns that ghostbur remembers nothing of their time together. quackity pretends like it wasn’t a knife to the gut. of course he wouldn’t remember, just meant nothing, it was casual. it shouldn’t bother him anyways, he wasn’t in love with wilbur! and even if he was, it shouldn’t matter, he has karl and sapnap after all.

then everything falls apart. tommy burnt down george’s house, dream put up walls, tommy was exiled. quackity pushes everything personal aside, his country is what’s most important to him. he plans the hog hunt, he doesn’t think about wilbur for even a second, entirely focused on killing technoblade.

he fails, he loses his first life, he learns that tommy’s dead, and now he wants to kill dream. his injuries heal within weeks, but he refuses to take off the bandages, terrified of what lies underneath. he ignores ghostbur entirely, he doesn’t want the ghost to see him like this. he doesn’t want wilbur to see what’s become of him.

tommy is alive, tommy leaves his partnership with technoblade, l’manburg is destroyed, and ghostbur wants to be revived. quackity is mortified by the idea, he doesn’t want wilbur back, right? why would he, the man clearly doesn’t give two shits about him. ghostbur is nice, ghostbur is kind, he’s the better version of wilbur. quackity should’ve fallen in love with this version of wilbur instead. but why is he thinking like that? he has his fiancés, he’s happy in his romantic life.

dream is in prison, quackity creates las nevadas as a place for him, karl, and sapnap to live, they create a nation without him. He doesn’t care, it was never that serious anyways. quackity ignores ghostbur entirely, he’s too busy to think about the dead man, especially when there’s another one on his mind.

tommy dies, tommy is revived, schlatt wants to be revived. once upon a time, he was in love with schlatt, he was head over heals, one could say. once your in love, you never truly fall out of it, so quackity agrees to help schlatt. ghostbur begins to forget about quackity, and q is alright with that. what he doesn’t know can’t hurt him. it was never ghostbur that was on his mind anyways. at night time, quackity dreams of a ravine.

quackity begins visiting dream. he needs that book, he needs to make the man pay for what he’s done, he needs to avenge tommy. so many reasons for torturing the masked man, so why doesn’t it feel justifiable. he knows deep down he stopped being the good guy a long time ago, he just doesn’t remember when he became the bad guy

quackity leaves a note for his dead…rival? lover? fling? he doesn’t know what to call him, so he settles with dearest friend. he lets him know he was right. and then quackity lets him go. he moves on, he’s ready to let the smoke clear from his memory.

quackity had told tommy he was always welcome in las nevadas, so he was expecting his arrival sooner or later. quackity had wanted tommy to join las nevadas for a while, not just because he would be a viable asset but also because, well sue him, he actually cares for the kid.

he goes over to greet him, he wants to show him around, considering it would be his first time in the golden city.

he just hadn’t expected to see a fully saturated wilbur soot standing next to him, dawning a matching white streak in his hair

writing some Manberg/Las Nevadas era Tubbo hcs for @best-vice-evr/@las-nevadas-business because I'm bored

warning; discussions of various types of abuse, alcohol, trauma, subconscious victim blaming (very specific), unhealthy behaviors, and overall a not very healthy situation.

I'll add more if I missed anything, but I think that covers most of it.

1. He sits out in the hallways most nights, waiting for the noise to stop. It's more to confirm that Quackity ended up asleep and resting.

2. Tubbo has a habit of taking on more than he can handle, to try and lighten things for Quackity. It usually works, so he never really stopped.

3. on the nights that Tubbo can't sleep at all, which are a majority of them, he ends up trying to fix up the messes Schlatt leaves behind. It always ends before dawn though, not wanting to risk waking the older ram up.

4. Tubbo knows a lot of medical information to better suit what injuries Quackity has, to ensure that the avian is receiving the proper treatment.

5. The only gift Tubbo received from Schlatt in the Manberg era of things was a locket with a picture of Tommy in his L’Manburg uniform in it. He still wears it around most days.

6. on the nights Tubbo went to visit pogtopia, he would only leave if Quackity came with him. It was more of a safety thing.

7. In the Las Nevadas era of things, Tubbo genuinely believes his experience in the Manberg era wasn't scarring in comparison to what Quackity’s experiences were like.

8. Tubbo likes using the ‘:]’ and ‘:[’ and all its variants like Quackity, but he also uses the emoticons —(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)— like Schlatt.

9. Tubbo has more of Quackity's genetics and generally takes after Big Q, with the exception of a few things from Schlatt. (Like his Ram traits, and the way he acts when he's overly stressed out.)

10. Tubbo genuinely didn't know what a healthy, stable marriage was meant to look like until he met Ranboo. And as a bonus; he was terrible at hiding that he liked them. He was also awful at hiding that he liked Tommy.

11. Tubbo's a light sleeper, he always has been and always will be. It's just how he is.

12. Tubbo very frequently makes sure that Quackity is intaking a healthy portion of food every day, always setting aside a bit of his own meal to give to Quackity. It eventually ended up in him having disordered eating habits. (He'd do it all over again, because it meant that Quackity actually took care of himself. And that was all he wanted.)

13. Tubbo's known about Quackity's cannibalistic habits since a few nights before the funeral for Schlatt was held. To keep the peace, he never said anything about it — but he's known.

14. Tubbo regularly visits Schlatt's grave, bringing him dried out flowers and small trinkets. He hates what their life was like with Schlatt in Manburg, but a small part of Tubbo misses him. It hurts a bit more every time, but Glatt is making things better.

15. Tubbo is mostly sober, occasionally taking a few sips of something alcoholic. He’s almost always sober any other time though.

16. Tubbo's a bit of a collector, taking trinkets and anything he deems ‘pretty.’ Most trinkets are in his bedroom, but a few are in his workshop too.

17. Speaking of his workshop, Tubbo spends a lot of time in there — mostly because of his projects, but as mentioned in headcanon two, it's also a habit to try and take on more than he can handle.

18. The official cover of the song ‘fries’ from the show Adventure Time is the way Tubbo invisions his relationship with Schlatt. Something more soft and bittersweet, rather than the mistreatment and hurt it actually was.

19. THE ONLY HC I'M WRITING FOR POST–RANBOO’S DEATH: Tubbo planted an entire garden of pretty flowers (mostly alliums and white flowers) after the passing of his beloved partner, and takes Michael to visit the garden every night before bed.

20. Tubbo tended to stay away from Schlatt unless the older was entirely sober, mostly because he wanted Schlatt's attention and he wanted to be positive that it was REAL. Like, Tubbo understood that the loving attention wasn't ever as genuine as it was when Schlatt was entirely and fully sober.

21. Speaking of — Tubbo slowly started to become more and more comfortable around Glatt, until eventually they had a pretty wholesome relationship. Especially since Glatt has shown that he can, and will, act better than Schlatt ever could.

22. whenever Tubbo gets really silly, he acts like a little kid with a ton of stimming (usually flailing his hands, stamping his feet onto the floor like hooves, and doing silly little spins)

23. Tubbo has been taking care of others more than himself since the very first month Schlatt was drunk almost daily. He never really learned to put himself first — he still has a ton of issues with it.

24. Tubbo was in denial of being trans for awhile, not wanting to accept the fact that he was just a bit different. After a long talk with Quackity though, he calmed down, and started to accept it. (My silly boy :[..)

25. Anytime an adult is drunk, mostly Quackity, Wilbur, or Glatt, Tubbo tends to avoid them. Alcohol still makes him uncomfortable for the most part.

26. Tubbo feels most comfortable around Quackity, and always has for the majority of it. Although, he's definitely working his way to being more comfy around Glatt— and he's come to view Wilbur as an honorary parent. He still favours Quackity though.

27. As said in headcanon eleven, Tubbo is a very light sleeper. Anything, even the softest of noises, could wake him up, since he's so familiar with having to be ready for ANYTHING as soon as he wakes up. It's almost impossible for Tubbo to sleep soundly, unless he's asleep in Quackity's nest.

28. Tubbo is very emotionally stunted. He doesn't really take the time to feel his own emotions, but he tries to hold the space in his heart for the people he cares about. He holds as much space in his heart as he can for the people he cares about, but he doesn't really leave any space for himself.

29. Tubbo very frequently forgets to take care of himself, and when he does, it's never for as long as he subconsciously craves. As a bonus, he frequently forgets to take breaks when he's working — since he's never really had the chance to.

30. As said in headcanon eighteen, there are two songs I associate with Manburg hornsduo. The official cover of the song ‘fries’ from the show Adventure Time, but also Vampire Empire (the demo & the full version) by Big Thief.

AS OF NOW THIS IS CLOSED!!! MOSTLY BC I DON'T HAVE ANY MOTIVATION >_<

If I do end up getting more ideas, this will be updated :)

[somerandomcryptid]

ah no no sorry i confused the words bc i was asking of You wanted to talk more about the cpunz and cquackity and c!cryptid stuff related to your recent art post but i got confused if it was part of You previous au or a new one and got confused, sorry 😓

-cleo

Ah yeah that makes more sense. No problem! actually kinda good you got confused cause I think I may have cooked something kinda fire so before I absolutely lore dump on you have some sketches of an au where Punz is a big doggo I just did

Man’s best friend :)

Anyway onto such less wholsome stuff because yeah those sketches were for Dreaming of death

also tw for implied child abuse and one mention of a child being hit (not contiunasly just twice with different people behind it each time), and one other mention of a child being harmed in a relatively minor way

I really should have clarified this is almost directly after the other Cryptid and Quackity in formal wear arts I’ve done. which I don’t think I’ve ever really explained? because honest i haven’t decided all the details. i just know that a fancy event is held at las nevadas and afterwards the las nevadas crew kinda like, goes around the server? like bar hopping but without the bars? they’re still all deunk though. it’s very chaotic.

They just so happen to run into staged duo (not directly but staged duo can see them, if they actually had awareness they’d probably be able to see them too)

and uhhhhhhh welll Cryptid and Q aren’t exactly.. obeying quaritoine rules?/platonic this pisses both Dream and Punz off. amd wellll Punz is kinda the more confrotational of the two?(he feels like he should fight dream’s battles because he wasn’t there for him in prison)

so he uhhh yoinks his child cryptid. They do not appreiate this. Q also, does not appreiate this. but Punz kept Quackity in his basement for 2 weeks and experiemented on him, safe to say he has the intimadation points. and the height advantage.

Anyway yeah that’s all the context I SHOULD have given. But brain was wprking a mile a minute because dod!Punz is walking contrictions if they were good at pvp. and I love him for it.

to elaborate on that. the guy is one, trying to gaslight himself imto thinking he doesnt want to make out with Dream, two trying to gaslight himself into think he doesn’t care about Cryptid.

which like…. wrong but also he does truly hate Cryptid a bit and is hella jealous of them. He also has tucked them into bed and condsidered for a brief second staying with them when they request him to.

And that’s not even touching how Cryptid feels about him. because he is the reason for aproximately a 4th of their issues. and also their idol a bit.

and they just hate each other but also care about each other in such an interesting mix.

Punz genuinely thinks they are a brat and that they are incredibly dramatic about how bad their lofe is because they have it ”good” in his eyes. but he also genuinely would never want to see them hurt and seeing them with Quackity makes him seeth because their risking their safety and also that their wasting their potential which he begrudgingly admits they have.

But also. he is the only person on the server to have scarred Cryptid(physically I mean), when they first met properly he held a dagger to their throat. they were fine, it’s just a little scar but it was still signifagant. He is also one of the only people to have hit them, the only other person being Quackity, was only once. still happened though.

Sorry this kinda just spiralled to me rambling about dod!punz with no real end point but he’s one of my favorites for just how convoluted he is. i would ramble more. but also it’s 6:30 am and I should go to bed lol.

(Since I’m main tagging I’m going to put the big ol’ Dreaming of death is an au of the fic penpal by @calamari-minecraft-corner :3)

THANK YOU TORI U ARE THE REMAINING BACKBONES OF THE CTNTDUO COMMUNITY THIS VAULT IS INSANE

[anachronistic-falsehood]

cellbit dsmp.... could be a saving grace or a living nightmare depending on when he joined

like early l'manberg? saving grace. He's got the paranoia that cWilbur had yet to earn, I genuinely think there's a good chance he would have been able to spot Eret going turncoat. And it wouldn't have hurt to have a guy who could actually fight in this faction (cccellbit's pvp abilities aren't that noteable but qcellbit is a renowned killer so we can pretend). Maybe things would have turned out differently. Maybe the Final Control Room would spare some lives, leaving Wilbur or Fundy or Tommy or Tubbo with one extra

But if he joined during elections era? More complicated. Just looking at how he was during the QSMP elections, I think he might have been a SWAG supporter? Non-zero chance that he would have been cQuackity's vice president, which is funny to me. Also, based on how he tried to handle the Federation I think that when/if Schlatt won he would stay in L'Manburg and try to spy, leading to a Manburgian cabinet like

Tubbo 🤝 Fundy 🤝 Cellbit: I Sure Hope They Don't Realize I'm The Only Spy Here

If he joined when Pogtopia v. Manburg was already in full swing, I think he would have gone for Pogtopia. cWilbur spends the whole time thinking he's an assassin hired to kill him and is just waiting for that knife to the neck. Never happens, though. He's on board with the Kill Schlatt cause, if not Wilbur being in charge- not personal, but he wouldn't want himself to be in charge either, and he has objections to Wilbur on similar grounds. Which probably makes things just that bit more stressful and worse, in the long run

For the life of me I can't figure out how he'd feel about the Butcher Army stuff

Would have supported cQ eating Schlatt's heart 100%. In general I think he and cQuackity would vibe, no matter where he appears on the timeline. If he joined before November 16th he'd understand the weight of Q eating Schlatt's heart and be tactful about it, but if he joined after he'd be like. A fellow enjoyer of cannibalism! What are the odds! And just assume that they had a shared hobby, not knowing that was a one-time thing

Could have quite the time getting possessed by The Egg

There's no way that he has a good reaction to the prison torture stuff, no matter what happens. Actually really interested about what he'd think of it, being on the one hand someone who suffered in the prison system, and on the other hand considering how he reacted to BBH capturing Ron. Non-zero chance he could get onboard and involved. Just depends on when he joins and how much he knows about the guy

I think Las Nevadas would unsettle him and if he joined as late as s3 I think he wouldn't go for any of the factions. Might put that paranormal research to use and go against The Egg

And also if he'd been there during ho16 he would have gotten a folding chair or something to put on that pressure plate. Bam. No Ranboos were harmed in this pyschocompetitive rivalry

OH this is an older ask but i am rotating it in my mind on loop rn. i am THINKING about this. ik i talked about cellbit being around for lmanberg but i like to imagine he would have joined around the time ranboo and puffy did, right after nov 16. he never knew wilbur as he was and met ghostbur a handful of times, which would make him meeting revivebur later on sooo much more interesting. he would be so standoffish with this guy. like oh you're the guy i keep getting compared to. nice to finally met you. so i heard you blew yourself the fuck up and destroyed your country and made your father kill you. what was that about huh. and wilbur would HATE him he would detest this man. you know how when two people are so similar but just different enough that they clash horribly??? that's them. they go about things the same way but have very different things that they want to do so they disagree on everything and are equally stubborn about it. they would drive everyone around them INSANE.

and if we're keeping cellbit's backstory the same as q!cellbit's then he's already got a history with bbh, so he might be tempted to join the badlands. he would LOVE the egg arc omggg he would go crazy for that shit. he would be obsessed. since cc!cellbit wanted to be a villain when he joined the qsmp (and got distracted by Gay Roleplay) i think he would love to act the part of an egg infected villain :3 i like to think the egg would be able to sense his bloodlust and try to manipulate him into helping it. and i think he would for a bit!! whether he's actually infected or just pretending so he can gather information and betray them later, idk, but he'd certainly play a part in the eggpire somehow, that's for sure. he'd fit right in with them :3

HOWEVER i do think that after the red banquet, or even during it, he would denounce or betray the eggpire (which would be insane, imagine hannah betraying the pro-omlette team and then cellbit immediately going HA YOU THOUGHT!! and betraying the eggpire, the plot twist would be crazy) and i think he would join the syndicate right after. he'd be sooo good in the syndicate i am so serious. cellbit himself is kinda friends with ranboo and they click so well so i think they would have a great time roleplaying together!!! imagine him escaping to the end with the rest of the syndicate +kristin AAAAAA syndicate cellbit...... save me syndicate cellbit

and i would LOVE to hear the insane homoerotic way wilbur would write him into hitting on 16. you KNOW cellbit would be involved in las nevadas/the burger van arc somehow. we'd have a three way homoerotic psychocompetetive rivalry going on. idk what he would even do to get involved but you just know he would involve himself somehow. i think quackity and wilbur would fight over him a little bit and cellbit would be a little shit and tell them he'd join the country/faction of whichever of them could give him the best offer in terms of riches or weapons or other benefits or whatever and then he'd leave them to fight. he loves stirring shit up <3 but i think he would get involved because he'd be friends with ranboo and wants to make sure they're doing okay. the syndicate sticks together!!!! i do think he'd ultimately get more involved with las nevadas as cquackity's vice bc i think cq would offer him a chance to torture cdream in prison and cellbit would be like. absolutely vibrating with excitement. he would accept immediately. when cq is tired he sends cellbit in his place and cdream DREADS those days, bc at least quackity is methodical and clean with his torture. cellbit just goes absolutely ham and gets very close to killing him multiple times. oh cellbit would have such a blast beating the shit out of dream <3

[rebelpeas]

so sorry to break into ur house like this but i need u to know that i am Still thinking about ur karlnapitybur post. dee rebelpeas You Get Me. aro cquackity and qpr tntduo yesyesyes. q who never stops loving karlnap but who has to leave them in order to do things right, to figure out what that love means, what shape it takes. lovelovelove the angle of tntduo where neither of them are trying to be Good Enough for each other, they've seen each other at their worsts and then some already, and they've stayed. so here they are together at the bottom of the world, building things up from the bottom. learning what it is to love, what it means to lean on each other, what it means to be loved by each other & others. they mean the World to me.

and also YES SAPNAP AND WILBUR KISS!!! THAT IS SO IMPORTANT TOO!!

please break into my home ANY TIME to talk about karlnapitybur i always want to talk about it yes yes yes. you’re so right anon you Understand Me you Get It. i am shaking your hand soo enthusiastically. i can be soooo unnormal about cquackity’s relationship with. relationships and aromanticism and AUGH. to Me, quackity views being in a relationship and the specific things that looks like — the commitment, the affection, romantic, sexual, everything else — as an expectation, not even from anyone else but himself. and combined with his first real relationship being with schlatt, who expected nothing but perfect compliance and an ideal image, i think there’s no way q could have ended up with anything but this warped view of love as a series of expectations and services to perform. points at him This Guy Struggles With Emotional Vulnerability On Every Level.

and the thing is, i think karlnapity are three people genuinely good for one another who genuinely love and care for each other — it’s just that they all kind of suck a little bit and are each actively going through the worst shit of their lives, and rather than lean on each other to help bear one another’s hardships, they let it isolate them. quackity is wrapped up in his desire to prove that he’s meeting these expectations he believes are required of him (and even when he’s distant, he’s building las nevadas as this big show of still doing things for them, even if they never really wanted that; they just wanted him around). karl’s time-traveling is for them, for the people he loves, but there’s that same lack of reliance on the others to let them see it, or maybe fear that they wouldn’t like it — he loves them too much to let them stop him. and sapnap is the unquestioning protector, forever and always, without a listening ear to understand who he’s protecting.

they’re good for each other. if they’d. yknow. sit down and talk about it

WHICH THEN LEADS BACK INTO WHAT YOU SAID ANON you’re so right starting over from square one would do quackity so much good. he and wilbur would be really good for each other for that. aauusgrgrgrh

and then sapnap and wilbur kiss -> i literally have nothing else to add to that point i just know they do in my heart

[cyncerity]

Karlnapity 🥺

(they are my absolute favs if you can not tell lol)

SAME SAME SAME SAME

actually i’m in the process of making a new karlnapity au rn so hopefully i might be able to post stuff for that soon 👀 (nothing super lore driven, i don’t have the mental capacity for that cause college so it’s gonna be a goofy romcom type au with some minor angst)

in the meantime here’s some more art from the high school binder <3

all these are from 2022 again so i might redraw them cause i’m still really proud of these designs <3

this is from the Bet on the Crown au which i’m still working on, actually i have a wip from like a year ago that’s still not posted cause i’m me 👍

anyway i think i’ve mentioned Karl, he’s crown prince of Kinoko Kingdom and an elf. Elves have natural magic like Endermen do, but instead of releasing it through spells they have to get intricate tattoos. The amount of tattoos and style of them depend on the type of magic an elf has. Karl’s got two full arm sleeves and can manipulate time.

I don’t think i’ve talked about Sapnap and Q yet. Sapnap is prince of the Nether and he was kinda forced by his dads to make a move on Karl so he could improve his kingdom’s relationship with the overworld, which he was upset about til he met him and promptly fell in love. They get engaged and shortly after find a shadowy shape shifting thing trying to steal from the palace. They arrest it and someone (probably Purpled) has to come out from a far off kingdom called Las Nevadas and be like “hey that’s our king and we regrettably need him, can we have him back?” So thing turns out to be a dude and apologizes, saying that he was looking for a friend who got lost on his way up here. They give him permission to stay until he finds his missing friend, and long story short they now have a third fiancé and ties with another kingdom. (they also do end up finding the missing friend; he was a slime who’d chosen to hide in a pot because why tf not, and he’d gotten stuck when someone put something heavy on top)

anyway yeah sorry i know you didn’t ask to be bombarded with lore but uh yeah i’ve had these designs and ideas since 2022 and honestly it all just came spilling out lmao

[rutadales]

c!foolish staying in las nevadas is my roman empire because he's clearly miserable and is just so apathetic to the entire operation, and yet, he stays in a place that makes him miserable with a person who used him and framed it as righteous. like man. he killed you for a sales pitch. he has zero interest in your goals of peace. why are you still there . c!q when I catch you.

[anonymous-dentist]

No because c!honq was the BLUEPRINT for friendship AND romance on the dsmp like Nobody did it like them!!

They were explicitly canon

They were friends before entering a romantic relationship

Friends to lovers anybody???

Secret pining while c!Quackity was with c!Schlatt on both sides???

Canon Walmart parking lot sex???

Karl under the floorboards at Niki's party crying because he thought Quackity was going to leave him for Wilbur?

They got engaged almost as soon as they possibly could have because they could not imagine a life without each other

I <3 Penis

c!Karl was El Rapids' biggest defender besides c!Quackity?

Literally just watch any vod with them interacting and they're so in love it disgusts their other canon fiance?

Quackity trying all throughout the El Rapids revolution to get Karl to put on armor and keep him from blowing himself up for the cause? But Karl doing it because he thought it would make Quackity happy?

Quackity BUILT LAS NEVADAS FOR KARL??? (And Sapnap, but this isn't about him)

The ONLY REASON Karl didn't move into Las Nevadas was because of LITERAL DIVINE INTERVENTION splitting them apart??

Karl fistfighting c!Bad and blackmailing the Egg and the whole 'Stay away from Q' diamond??? Because even when they were apart, Karl still loved him enough to fight a god??????

Kinoko Kingdom was also built for Quackity!!! They were both supposed to live in each other's countries free of any responsibility or warfare or trouble but then LITERAL GOD split them apart because they were TOO POWERFUL TOGETHER

When his memory started unraveling because of the time travel that he was forced to do, Karl spent so much time trying to force himself to remember but he couldn't

Even when Karl's memory tricked him into thinking he and Quackity hated each other, he still called Q his fiance

Quackity's previous and future (re)incarnations were in almost every Tales episode and they always flirted with Karl, proving they're literal soulmates

Again, the ONLY THING keeping them apart was GOD HIMSELF. If it wasn't for XD forcing Karl to time travel and thus forcing him to lose his memories, then Honq would've been married Forever ago

The literal last action that Quackity did before the end of LN5 and the opening of Las Nevadas was him sending a letter of apology to Karl (and Sapnap, but this isn't about him) hoping that they can reconcile. That is one of c!Quackity's last ever actions before the series' end. So.

Anyway, vote Honq

[calmthefuckdownalright]

Villain Pool AU

guess what! I'm still on my shit and I was thinking about the different groups in the Dream SMP. The Syndicate particularly. The big 4 would be Phil, Technoblade, Niki, and Ranboo. That's them.

They're our beloved mobsters and with that thought I circled back to the MANY supervillain au's where the Syndicate is made up of basically all of SBI, Beeduo, Jack is there with Niki, and then our lovely Las Nevadas bois Q and Slime. I have yet to see Foolish there but he's an honorable mention

ANYWAY

The Dream Team and their various comrades are commonly seen as "heroes" so-

This got me thinking. The real Syndicate, the og 4 mentioned above is a mafia group. They're mean and exclusively do things themselves. They have money, they have power, but it's all their own and no one has dared take it from them. Except for our lovely rival mafia that was founded out of spite by the Syndicate's head honchos oldest son who basically stole his youngest son to keep him from being influenced.

L'manberg. Aka The Revolutionists. They specialize in causing havoc without hardly lifting a finger or revealing who the hell they really are. They're great at expressing their intentions without being seen. Some call them cowards, and those people are quickly snuffed out.

Now, who is L'manberg you might ask.

Well obviously Wilbur is the eldest son I mentioned and he took Tommy when he was young to get away from Phil's violent business before Tommy got drug into it as a child as Wilbur did. Wilbur tries to convince Technoblade to join them but his brother craves violence and is forever loyal to their fierce father.

In a habit of taking in those who he wishes to keep out of Phil's violent path, Wilbur finds Fundy and takes him in as well. Then along comes Eret, and eventually Tubbo. Others come and "help" L'manberg but they never get close enough to find out who exactly is a participant in the Revolutionists.

There are a few that get in but go through a process to leave as long as they promise to help when called for, and L'manberg will extend their protection to them as well.

These people are few and far between, most of them never being heard from again. But one man...one man causes issues for both the Syndicate and L'manberg.

Quackity Nevadas forms a vigilante group called the Butcher Army where both people from L'manberg and the Syndicate join in. This causes issues and under an alliases of Orpheus and Theseus, Wilbur and Tommy meet with Phil and Techno (who is the Army's target) to get their men back. Of course, everyone from L'manberg is require to keep their identities secret under any and all circumstances. Fundy, Eret, and Tubbo are not real names. They're covers. Even Wilbur doesn't know their real names and they don't know his. They call him Mr. President, and Tommy is Vice.

In the Butcher Army they keep their identities secret as well, Quackity being one of the only ones who flaunts his. In L'manberg he was known as Q which was short for his new allias Quackity but people don't know this and assume that Quackity's parents were just odd since it was weird for a villain to go by two names without one of them being their real one.

With time, Techno dismantles the hunting party for his head without much trouble and both Fundy and Tubbo return to L'manberg with a thourough scolding from their President. Fundy is particularly affected by this because at this point he has considered Wilbur a kind of father figure, or at least a big brother.

(Side note: Everyone in L'manberg doesn't know Wilbur and Tommy are actually brothers. Phil and Technoblade don't know Wilbur and Tommy are Orpheus and Theseus.)

I've gotten a little off track here and forgot to explain in depth how the Syndicate/L'manberg meeting went.

No one has met President and Vice. No one's seen their faces, no one even knows if they exist really besides the ones in L'manberg and even then the both of them stay behind screens during meetings. Wilbur has made sure of that because he knows that if Phil wants to, he can find out who is running the show with the smallest bit of information. Fundy is the closest one to Wilbur and all he knows is that he's tall and has brown hair.

This leads to Phil (who is known on the street as Zephyrus) and Technoblade (The Blood God) not having a clue that their forgotten family is right in front of them. (who they think either left the city or were killed in one of the many villain hero fights (Wilbur totally didn't plant evidence of their bodies to get Phil off their tracks when they first left or anything))

Wilbur knows, Tommy doesn't because he was too young and Wilbur never exactly told him who Zephyrus and The Blood God really were. Anyway here's the little scene I cooked up from the POV of Wilbur:

"I was told we were meeting with the heads of L'manberg. Not some two bit lieutenants." The Blood God snarled. Technoblade. Wilbur itched to punch him, it was always like that when they met. Only one of them knowing everything.

"Who are you calling two bit Tusks?" Tommy spat and Wilbur held back his little brother from lunging forward. Tommy's temper was vital and it made Wilbur smile underneath the carefully crafted mask. The voice modulator distorted Tommy's voice to a much lower pitch which didn't fit his height, but then again Tubbo sounded like a fucking smoker of 30 years some days with hardly even a surgical mask on.

"Easy Theseus." Wilbur warned.

"Get your dog under control." Technoblade demanded and that hurt. That made Wilbur's blood burn in confliction. If only he knew it all.

"Zephyrus if you would refrain your comrade from insulting mine that would be appreciated. This is business, not pleasure." Wilbur said cooly. His voice sounded so smooth, no cracking from dusty rooms and cheap cologne. Ivory keys in a symphony.

"Blood." Zephyrus obliged. Phil, oh Phil made Wilbur angry. All he saw in the glimpses of his face behind the veil was the violence of his own childhood. Phil wasn't abusive, he was rough when he needed to be and overall it was fairly normal. But his expectations...they crushed Wilbur even now. Good thing he thought he was dead.

"Blood God is right, we were told we were meeting with President and Vice of L'manberg. Not their subordinates. We don't even know who you are." Phil was careful in his tone. Cold and daring for aggression.

"We're who they send to do their business. I'm Orpheus and this is Theseus." Wilbur kept a steady hand on Tommy's shoulder. The tight leather gloves over his hands flexed as Tommy tensed to move. Impatient as always.

"Cowards." Technoblade scoffed and Wilbur snapped his head to the one he used to call his brother. If there was one thing he couldn't stand to be called, it was coward. Bastard, fucker, idiot, two bit trash. A burning ship drowning everyone around him. Call him anything but coward. He was just trying to protect those he loved.

"Say that again." Wilbur said low and the voice modulator almost didn't pick up his voice correctly and there was a fault. A glitch and the illusion of Orpheus' voice was ruined.

"You use voice modulators?" Zephyrus inquired and Wilbur cleared his throat. Tommy was practically begging to jump at Technoblade, but Wilbur knew he'd be skewered before he even moved an inch.

"Our identities are sacred if you couldn't tell." Wilbur lifted his chin to reveal just how high his turtleneck went and a dark beanie fully covered his hair. The mask he wore took up his entire face and another mask under it covered his lower jaw and anything on the side that might show. Tommy had his hoodie and similar ski mask material covering his features. The hood over his hair was secured to the mask, so any possibility of it coming off was unlikely.

"Right." Zephyrus examined them and Wilbur could feel those bright blue eyes running alone every crack and crevice of his body to try and find something to use. A description of his hands, a fault in his stance or posture. A habit. Anything.

"Orpheus and Theseus. Mythological heroes. Interesting choice." Phil noticed and Wilbur's blood ran cold.

"Don't analyze, don't analyze, don't analyze." He begged in his head and tore the conversation away from the topic.

"Orpheus wasn't a hero, and Theseus killed his father technically. I wouldn't call them heroes." Wilbur hissed and he saw Phil's eyes blink knowingly. There was his information. All he needed. Wilbur knew his greek fairytales. In a city full of crime, those who were educated enough to even think of those stories were few. Let alone be well versed in them enough to know the technicalities of them all.

"We're not here to chat over aliases." Technoblade cut in and Wilbur clenched his fist, removing his hand from Tommy and folding them neatly behind his back.

"Right. The Butcher Army is after your head and it consists of both our people." Wilbur smiled behind his mask. Force of habit to appear charming and all.

"No habits. Stop it. Phil will notice." He reminded himself and dropped the smirk. He didn't know if there was anything in his body language to show the grin but he didn't want to risk it.

"Your men are leading it." Technoblade reminded him and Wilbur felt the sting of Quackity's betrayal. And just after losing Eret. It hurt like a bitch to remember.

"Quackity is not one of ours. He completed President's exit trial." Tommy had stilled his temper apparently and Wilbur sent a silent thanks to the heavens.

"I wasn't aware people could leave L'manberg." Phil observed curiously and Wilbur bared his teeth behind the mask.

"It's a difficult task, like everything else and if you'll notice, Quackity isn't exactly untouched." There was an ugly scar running down the man's chest where Wilbur had sliced him. Quackity had earned his keep, and his silence, so Wilbur was forced to send him to a healer known as Ponk. Ponk was in a duo with a technician Wilbur knew as Warden. Warden made all their technology at a costly price, and his loyalty was undecided. He was a neutral party and Wilbur had reluctantly agreed to offer them protection in exchange for services.

"That doesn't change the fact that two more known L'manberg members are in the Butcher Army." Phil reminds him and Wilbur straightens his back at the threatening tone.

"Doesn't change the fact that one of your trusted members is as well." Wilbur looked to Technoblade. "I wonder what violence you must've done to him to make Ranboo hate you enough to join your own murder gang."

Technoblade growled. Oh he growled and Wilbur growled back.

"Prince doesn't hate me." Technoblade growled the code name and Wilbur chuckled, stepping in front of Tommy and facing his brother.

"Ranboo, has met with us a few times himself. He's taken a fondness to-" Tommy kicks Wilbur in the calf and Wilbur blinks. The enchantment vanishes and Wilbur steps away.

Adrenaline; that was part of Technoblade's powers. Causing so much of it to go through a person they don't think clearly until its too late. Perfect for hunting down those who've crossed him and the Syndicate.

"Fond of who? Go on." Technoblade dared and bared his fangs in an ugly smirk. Wilbur scowled.

"This was supposed to be peaceful." Wilbur muttered, lacing his Influence into his tone. Technoblade blinked away the magic quickly, it was weak, only meant to suggest the idea of calming things down. nothing that would alert Phil at whose powers his own were so similar to.

"It is." Phil said, Wilbur's voice had never worked on him. Probably something to do with those damn bird traits of his.

"You've done nothing but threaten and accuse." Tommy stepped back to Wilbur's side.

"Allegedly." Phil said and flared his black wings. "You take care of your own, and we'll handle ours. how's that sound?"

There was something ominous. Something warning and teasing and something that told Wilbur that Phil knew something he shouldn't. A habit of presenting himself as charming and intelligent surely couldn't be enough to narrow it down. Phil did like the hunt though.

That much Wilbur knew for a fact.

Hehehehe

Anyways, I'm working on maybe making an A03 account and publishing this fic there. I need a title though. I didn't expect this to turn into something. This started as an AU rant...now I need titles and I'll figure out a proper name for the AU later

[calamari-minecraft-corner]

Idk if you've already talked about it(only been here a few months and all) but in the dnd au what actually are Cala and Spooky's origins/life before the whole dream situation, cause I've seen their past referenced but ever time it is I'm just kinda not sure what exactly is going on

Also the Fundy being sent to hunt Cala down to kill her happens after the Dream prison break right? Or is it before, and if so what the fuck did she do to piss of Quackify?

Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question or if you've already answered, I'm just curious about them :)

Oh I haven’t talked about it fully so I’m glad to talk about it!

-

Cala and Spooky both lived through the war- Cala was thankfully more unscathed because her family did their best to avoid it, but they lived in the rural side of Withering Hope for the majority of her life. When Cala got older she decided to be a bard instead of something more mechanical like her father (he’s a dwarf uwu) so she became a storyteller bard! And the reason why she is also a paladin is that she wanted to work under Eret for training as for inspiration for her stories, so Eret gave her that small title as well as making her take the Oath of Redemption! Before the events of the au she travels on foot to Las Nevadas to make mofe stories and get more inspiration, where she goes to the capital of the kingdom herself and stays there for a while until her help and friendships with Fundy, Foolish and Purpled as well as her successes catch Sam’s eye and he befriends her and basically tries to persuade her into working as one of the guards in the prison- and honestly that leads to Cala breaking dream out bc the second she saw the state that man was in she knew something was wrong

Spooky wasn’t really lucky with being safe from the war. Her city in the L’Manberg Kingdom got hit hard with it and it led to a lot of economical loss, and the town was very cruel to her due to her being a tiefling. So right around the end of the war, the city caught aflame since the abuse got taken too far and her patron (which is my dsmp god oc based off of Sapnap c; ) basically helped her and killed everyone! Everyone didn’t know she caused it though and it was one of the many things that fueled their reason for Dream being taken down.

Eret found her on the outskirts of the burnt city and basically took her in right after the war- and Cala and Spooky became friends and eventually partners and now married after Eret introduced them together when they were teenagers.

And yes- Fundy hunts Cala down after the prison break! The reason why Q chose Fundy was that Cala trusted him completely and Q knew he could track Cala down the easiest since they spent a lot of time together! And Fundy didn’t want to, but he knew he had to because hey she basically broke him out-

That and he’s guilty bc Cala told him she saw someone injured in the prison and in a bad state and Fundy tried to brush her off/dissuade her to doing something stupid and she was very upset so she told Bad to talk some sense into her

Bad didn’t and instead helped her get in with the return of wanting a favor from her in the future!

Fundy doesn’t know if Quackity knew he caused that mess- but he’s kinda scared to find out so he agrees and he sees Cala and Dream on their way to Cala’s home and he has such a clear shot on her with his crossbow.

But he can’t do it- he genuinely can’t.

And when Cala sees him she gets happy and basically drags him along while Dream knows damn well something is up but says nothing idk

[natureismynature]

Can I ask what exactly Foolish and Quackitys relationship was like on DSMP? Like how much did they trust each other and what was the status of their relationship at the end?

Well, to be perfectly clear, cFoolish and cQuackity never had the best relationship from start to finish in the DSMP. cQackity was an absolute asshole to cFoolish, is what I would summarize from all of the lore they did together ouvsigf (I'm gonna stop putting c in front of their names now cuz its annoying, but I'm still talking about the characters)

Quackity visited Foolish's home one day to 'recruit' (read: manipulate) him into joining Las Nevadas, and you know how he managed to succeed even when Foolish initially refused? He flat out insulted Foolish's home AND the man himself. He disregarded the true value of the huge base because it was empty, he dug up buried secrets from the past that Foolish would have preferred to stay behind him, and the big finisher? He admitted that he let Foolish die during the Red Banquet. And dying is a big fucking deal to Foolish. He's never died before, so that experience nearly broke him.

Foolish took on the offer because Quackity poked at his insecurities so much that he actually doubted himself. Q called his empty builds are a waste of time if no one's gonna use them, Q told him about how great he used to be and how he could go back to being great again, Q messed his brain man. But Foolish wasn't foolish. He never trusted Quackity. He just joined to make a legacy that people would actually see and remember.

Their relationship was purely business. Foolish builds for the country and Quackity pays him. That's it. They're not friends, nor did they trust each other. That's why Foolish offered no remorse whatsoever when Quackity lost Slime and basically went mad trying to get him back. Foolish was empathic, as he always is, but he didn't offer comfort like a friend would.

But as strained as their relationship was, Foolish was still the one person who stuck with Quackity till the end. Which I find interesting. BUT I've rambled on for too long, hope this helps anon!

[galaxy-lilies]

GOD KARLNAPITY REALLY IS EVERYTHING each of their characters have hang ups that interact in interesting ways and the time travel! Literally soulmates!! They find each other in every time and fall in love over and over!!!!!!! When will karlnapity come back from the war I miss them every day

EXACTLY ANON!! almost every single tale they find each other again, karl falls in love with almost every iteration (idk if anyone call really fall for Pills but. who knows, maybe karl is into that) AND THEIR DYNAMIC IS SO!!! WAAAAH I MISS THEM SO BAD

i would like to think that when quackity dropped off the letter in kinoko he runs into sapnap who stops him and asks what has happened since Q has been gone and Q just asks him to read the letter. it's there he and sapnap reconnect and they start healing but it's also when sapnap reveals karl has been missing and that he's been so lonely without both of them.

and for once, quackity stays. of course he has a few things to finish in las nevadas, but foolish seemed to be fine taking care of things. and so he focuses on sapnap, on helping the demon around kinoko and piecing together what happened

meanwhile karl was starting to get a grasp of his powers and finally was able to defy XD. It's there karl almost has the power of a god and he rips through time and space when he realizes what is about to happen to the greater DSMP as jack manifold tampered with the nuke.

and now the three live in their own pocket of space and time, reconnecting at last.

and while not everything is perfect right away, no matter what they still have each other

[somerandomcryptid]

Dreaming of death lore drop!

After Quackity and Sam bring Cryptid back to the smp they give them to Bad and Skeppy to take care of

I haven't actually watched the eggpire lore so if they aren't together at the end of that than sorry I fucked up :/ and I'll change it if that is the case

But if it is plausible than it's staying :)

Btw Q isn't particularly happy about this, they are his ex fiance's parents and all

But Sam pushes for it because Bad's a prison guard and no way in hell is he letting Quackity bring a literal teenager stay in Las nevadas

Like no, just no

Also Cryptid is at first stand offish to the two because they're resentful of this whole thing but Bad makes them muffins and Bad and Skeppy are just really hard to hate so they grow into more of a family dynamic

Fun fact: Bad and Skeppy are how Cryptid meets Sapnap :) because that does happen, I'm sure that'll be fine ;)

Oh also, no one on the smp beyond Quackity and Sam (*cough cough* and punz *cough cough*) know about Cryptid's relationship with Dream, or that they're from another world, Q and Sam just said they "found" them and Cryptid doesn't really feel like getting on their shit list by exposing all the shit that's been going on

On an extra also I think it's so fucking funny that Cryptid is just collecting adoptive family members like fucking pokemon like a swear to god my guy, you have a good relationship with your bio family you don't need like three or four bonus parents, and more bonus siblings than I can even count

It's all very unintentional on their part but people keep adopting them in various varieties

(Dreaming of Death is an au of the fic Penpal by @calamari-minecraft-corner even though I don't reference anything that isn't my plot in this it still stands)
