Wilbur opens his eyes. He knows that knock; quiet, light, taps more than anything. It’s Phil. Tommy always pounds his bloody fist against the wood, and Technoblade uses the doorbell. Phil knocks softly, like he’s afraid the door will collapse if he uses an ounce more of force. It’s Phil at the door.
~~~
Wilbur breathes a whistlely sigh. The dirt floor falls away, and the dancing light of the torch leaves his eyelids, and his feet are touching nothing but air. For the first time, he begins to reckon with the idea—the knowledge, the fact—that his eyes may never open again. He feels weightless. He doesn’t feel free, because he’s not dead, and that makes him desperately sad.
~~~
Wilbur laughs again. “You’re funny sometimes, y’know.”
Ghostbur’s face lights up. “Really?”
~~~
Techno swallows. His eyes trail over Ghostbur, catching on every single pulsing wound that won’t heal. He doesn’t say anything.
~~~
Every couple steps, one of them stumbles, but the other holds on and makes sure they don’t fall, so none of them fall. It’s really hard to think; with every step on the broken ground, thoughts of Dream fall away, until all that’s left is Tommy, and Ghostbur, and walking, and trying not to fall, and breathing.
“We’re almost there,” Tommy whispers, not looking up. “Please, please, we’re almost there.”
~~~
“I really like yogurt,” Ghostbur whispers. His eyes brighten even more, and he turns back to Wilbur with an expression so utterly touched that it makes Wilbur’s brow furrow. “Thank you for getting me this.”
“No problem,” Wilbur answers uncertainly. He clears his throat. “Next time, um, next time we go to a store we’ll have to get some yogurt. For uh, for you.”
Ghostbur gasps a second time. “Really?”
“Yeah?” Wilbur narrows his eyes. “Why not? It’s what you like, right?”
Ghostbur nods, staring down at his little yogurt container with eyes so wide it’s almost comical.
~~~
Snow crumbles as Techno rises to a stand. He becomes a silhouette against the snow-bright sky. “This… this isn’t going to affect our friendship, is it? You’re not gonna hold a grudge because of this?”
~~~
“Why are you in here? With me? You don’t have to be. You can go, if you want.” Wilbur nods his head towards her. “I know that chair must suck.”
“I don’t mind it.” Niki’s voice sounds genuine, but her continued restless shifting gives her away. “And I’m in here because I want to be.”
“Why?”
Her voice gets softer. “So you won’t be lonely.”
Wilbur’s jaw tightens. He looks away. “I don’t care.”
“Yes you do. You’re scared to be alone.”
~~~
“I don’t want an apple.” Tommy sighs again. “I want you to stop being weird.”
“Weird people make the world go round.”
Tommy wrinkles his nose. “No they don’t. Rich billionaires do.”
Ghostbur stares at him. “Try the apple.”
“I’m gonna be one someday, y’know.”
“An apple?”
“No. A billionaire. Then I’ll make the world go round, and I’ll flaunt my money like nobody’s business. All the girls will love me.”
Ghostbur offers his hand forward. “Try the apple.”
~~~
“With pickles?”
“Yes.”
“And mustard?”
“Yes, my love.”
Sally’s eyes widen. “And extra cheese?”
Wilbur smiles, just a touch exasperated, but mainly endeared. “Of course. I know how you like your burgers. What sort of married man would I be if I didn’t?”
~~~
Wilbur curls up, pressing that arm close to his chest. “Tommy? I don’t wanna forget how to love you. I don’t wanna love you not-right. That’d make me feel awful.” Quieter, he adds, “Mum feels awful when she realizes she forgot. That’s why she’s crying now, I think. She didn’t mean to not love me right. She didn’t mean to.”
~~~
“Every Jedi except me.” Ranboo closes his eyes, silently praying that no one other than Tommy is listening to this conversation. He should have faith, he knows, but he doesn’t think he has any. And that feels wrong.

how are you really feeling today? no one-word answers please!
Pretty good :D I had strawberry yogurt for breakfast, which is great because A) strawberry yogurt is my favorite kind of yogurt and B) I remembered to eat breakfast lol
Listened to a lot of really good music in the car earlier! Got to hang out with irl friends for a while, and two of them complimented my haircut :) Another friend stole my hat and wore it for a little bit lol XD
Later, I sang along to like… freaking rock music in an empty parked car, which was fun. I almost never sing along to music!
Had some delicious cookie cake stuff with icing :D I was craving it and ough, it’s super good.
Last night was also good, because I started writing a fanfic that I really like the premise of, and then read The Wingfeather Saga until 1am because of ARTHAM WINGFEATHER!!! HE IS SO GOOD!!!
So yeah, I’m doing splendid :)
with whom do you feel most at home?
My family, probably. They’re some of the only people that I can be fully completely myself around.
And you as well, my friend :’)
what’s something really positive going on in your life right now?
I’ve gotten very invested in the last Wingfeather Saga book, which has been super fun :D I may even have more fanfic ideas…
Writing went amazing last night!! I wrote almost 2,000 words, which has not happened in quite a long time.
I’m also very happy with my irl friend group :) I think I’m at a good spot with all of them, and we’re all comfortable around each other & enjoy each other’s company <3 It’s really nice.
have you drank enough water today?
Probably not aisgajsgajsgjafs I filled up my water bottle in the morning and never finished it :0

Share something soft/fluffy from your WIP
“Bye Tommy,” Wilbur says quickly, moving towards the door.
“Hey!”
“What?” Wilbur, against his better judgment, stops and turns around. Had he forgotten something? It’ll be annoying if he has.
Tommy stares at him, eyes wide and expectant. “Aren’t you gonna get some water, or something?”
Wilbur blinks at him.
“Y’know. Being thirsty?” Tommy’s eyes widen a little more. “You should drink water soon after waking up, Wil. It rehydrates your- it rehydrates your enzymes and stuff! Makes your tongue less big.”
Wilbur licks his lips, which he just now realizes are dry and chapped. Oh.
“Right. Right, Tommy, of- of course. Water.” Wilbur nods, walking to the kitchen with quick but solid steps. “That’s what I was going to do.”
“What, outside?” Tommy retorts, fighting back a chuckle. “You were gonna go lick a leaf again, weren’t you? ‘Oh look at me, I’m Wilbur Soot and I’m not like other men, I drink from leaves’!”
“Hey. That was one time.” Wilbur turns to raise his eyebrows at Tommy, pointing at him dangerously.
“You drank from a leaf!”
“I wanted to see what it tasted like! If it… y’know, if it tasted any different.”
“Well? Did it?”
Wilbur purses his lips. “I don’t remember.”
“Ha, L. Oh Wilbur, you are so strange and stupid, I can’t even believe you.”
Wilbur rolls his eyes, grabbing a glass cup from the counter and holding it beneath the faucet, turning on the water and watching it fill. He’d turned the water up high, so it fills quickly; a steady and wobbling wall of water, racing towards the rim alongside millions of tiny white bubbles.
The cup reaches the rim and begins to overflow, streaming down Wilbur’s hand, so he turns off the water. The bubbles dissipate instantly.
“Were you seriously going to walk out here without getting a drink of water?” Tommy questions, bordering the line between genuine concern and teasing as he walks to the sink, grabbing his own cup.
Wilbur takes a sip, letting himself close his eyes for a moment as the cool liquid slides down his throat. Oh, it feels heavenly. It hasn’t stopped feeling like that, not since he was revived. “I don’t know. Maybe.”
“So yes.”
Wilbur pauses. “Maybe.”
“Oh, you are so stupid,” Tommy mutters with a sideways smirk, filling his cup with water from the faucet—not as full as Wilbur’s. Tommy stops before it can flood over the top. “You are going to pass out and die from lack of water. I just know it. I can feel it in my bones, Wilbur. My bones.”
Wilbur takes another sip, lightly leaning his weight against the counter. Tommy steps back from the sink, standing more towards the middle of the kitchen, socked feet over linoleum. Wilbur wishes that he’d taken off his own shoes before coming in here.
~~~
Share your favorite piece of dialogue from your WIP
“I don’t really know why you’d want to look,” Ghostbur says, sounding thoughtful, but a bit confused as well. “Hurts are bad—that’s why they hurt. It’s like they’re screaming at you, ‘this is bad, this is scary! This shouldn’t have happened!’”
Ghostbur takes one last look at Tommy’s bandaged arm before pulling his fingers away, and he doesn’t make a fuss when Tommy pulls his arm closer to himself, looking over the work with a critical eye.
“I don’t like looking at hurts,” Ghostbur continues. “I think they’re bad. I don’t like them.”
“Well, I don’t like them either. I’m not a lunatic.” Tommy frowns, holding out his arm and stretching his fingers out. “But I still wanna see what they look like, and stuff. I’m just curious- I’m a curious mind, Ghostbur! My mind is constantly filled with curious things, on repeat like a record player! Like that song. Y’know, you spin me right round baby right-“
“Does looking at them help you?”
Tommy flicks his eyes to Ghostbur, who watches him with big eyes. “What?”
“Your hurts. Does looking at them help you?”
“Uh… I don’t know. I guess.” Tommy looks back to his arm, running his other hand along the bandage. “Hey, this is a whole lot bigger than a band-aid, by the way.”
Ghostbur snorts. “Of course it is. A band-aid wouldn’t have been enough to help you.”
“Oh.” Tommy scowls. “I like band-aids better than this. For your information.”
“You can use band-aids when you give yourself smaller hurts,” Ghostbur replies easily. “But sometimes you just need a bandage.”
#the first snippet is from a one-shot I’m HOPING to have finished by Wilbur’s birthday#so I can post it on Wilbur’s birthday (maybe)#because it is about Wilbur having a birthday alshakshks#it’s sooooo crime boys and I’ve had a great time so far :D#next snippet is that bandage story I’m doing based on the prompt you sent in!!#ask#ask game answers#story snippet#Pinestripe tag

Name five things you're passionate about.
:D
In no particular order…
1. Music! Lyrics, sounds, ukulele, whatever!! MUSIC!!! I LOVE MUSIC!!! I COULD TALK FOR SO LONG ABOUT MUSIC!!! MUSIC MY BELOVED!!!
2. Dream SMP (hehe) I loooove rambling about this crazy fandom so much <3
3. Star Wars! I was talking about Star Wars with my brother a few days ago and it reminded me of how much I truly love Star Wars. It’s just… wow. It’s so cool. I’m such a Star Wars nerd. I love Star Wars. Yes. Star Wars.
4. Writing!! Ideas for fanfics occupy my mind a Lot lol. And this past year I’ve gotten into writing poetry, and that’s been fun :)
5. Definitely a bit of a turn here, but the whole abortion topic never fails to get me worked up. I’ve researched so much into this topic, and heard so many stories, and talked with so many people, and it’s so… I don’t even know the word for it. It’s such an important thing to discuss. Definitely pretty passionate about this.
What makes you feel at home?
A couple things :)
My own blankets, my stuffed animal, my little pink blanket I’ve had since I was a baby. A bathroom that feels safe (I am very picky when it comes to bathrooms lol). Praying. Chatting with friends. Hanging out with my family and being weird together.
More so that last one, than all the others, I think. I was just in the car earlier with my parents and we just… chatted, and I felt so content and safe and happy :)
Share the last dream you remember.
Unfortunate question, my friend.
Aksgajstajsgajsgajs
OKAY SO
MY MIND IS A STRANGE PLACE
MY DREAMS ARE EVEN MORE STRANGE
HERE IS MY MOST RECENT DREAM
Alrighty, so I was at the beach. But it was like… set up like a video game?? I found this overweight guy and had to follow him—for some reason—because of like… a side quest?? Or something???
Not completely sure lol
Anyways, I followed this random dude for a short while, until he went into this long, cheap-looking trailer. I had no idea what was inside the trailer, but I went in anyway (because of the side quest, I suppose).
It was apparently a black market??? It had a really weird setup, with DIY walls creating suspicious pathways throughout the building; I found like, a whole bunch of stuffed animals (apparently being illegally sold) including some of my very own irl stuffed animals!!
I picked up the ones that were mine, trying to figure out this situation…
And then I turned around and realized I’d been caught :0
There was this older man (not the same one from earlier) standing behind me, and he… had Ghostbur?? 🥺 HE HAD CAPTURED GHOSTBUR!!! I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW GHOSTBUR WAS IN THIS TRAILER!!!
And Ghostbur was really scared and it was sad :’( He may have been crying? I think he was, but I don’t quite remember.
:’(((
The guy holding onto him was basically like, “girl, if you don’t stop messing with the black market stuff, something Bad is going to happen to Ghostbur” and obviously I didn’t want that, so I complied.
Time jump!
Ghostbur wasn’t ever in the dream again (I hope he was okay :’0) but me and the older guy started having this really obscure heart-to-heart lol
He told me that his mom (keep in mind, this guy is like, 50 or 60. I’m not entirely sure how his mom is still alive) wanted to send him and his brother off to an asylum because she no longer felt safe around them?? Which… is weird??? Oh my gosh??????
I pretending to listen genuinely, and I asked questions and nodded my head, and he seemed to trust me.
After a bit, he let me leave, but warned me to not mess with his business again or else he’d alter the US government XD
That dream kinda ended after that lol

EEEEEEE OKAY RAMBLES INCOMING OH MY GOSH MODERN AU OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH
!!!!!!
Thank you for asking about thisssssss :D
Best personality trait
How much he wants to protect people, definitely—specifically Tommy!
In this universe, Tommy was born when Ghostbur was around seven years old, ish? So Ghostbur has literally been with Tommy since he was a baby and he’s watched him grow up and get bigger and he has Many Feelings about that 🥺 He freaking loves his brother. Absolutely adores him. He would actually die for Tommy, no question about it.
And because Ghostbur & Tommy’s bio family was very Not Good, Ghostbur was pretty much the one who raised Tommy—not the parents. And soon after Tommy was born, the two were moved into foster care, which was confusing and scary and nothing ever stayed the same. So, Ghostbur became even more of a protector for his tiny brother :’) He worried a lot about Tommy’s safety, and what could or would happen to him if Ghostbur wasn’t around.
Ghostbur essentially acted as a shield for Tommy; he stepped in and saw/experienced/felt/went through bad things and hard things and scary things and sad things so that Tommy wouldn’t have to. Not that Tommy had a flawless childhood, of course—he absolutely went through super hard things—but Ghostbur did his very best to protect him from the worst of things.
Ghostbur would literally do anything for Tommy, like. His love for his little brother knows no bounds. He’ll protect him to the ends of the earth or die trying.
How they feel about Wilbur
OHHH-HO-HO, THIS IS A GOOD QUESTION!!!
His feelings about Wilbur are… turbulent. Alsgaksgkag
He didn’t even know Wilbur existed for most of his life, so when he finally discovered that he had a twin he has a freaking twin, he was… confused. Very, very confused.
Wilbur didn’t exactly help with that 😅 He’s very… um. Well, he’s very Wilbur XD He’s loud and theatrical and dramatic, and takes up so much space personality-wise. He’s not cruel or trying to be mean, but he can definitely come off as pretty sharp, and that made Ghostbur not like him too much at first 😅
However, things get better! As time goes on, Ghostbur comes to understand Wilbur more and more, and realizes that Wilbur cares a lot and has Big Feelings and struggles with things, and—perhaps the strangest of all—Wilbur loves. He loves Tommy. He might even love Ghostbur.
Things are confusing. Ghostbur’s thoughts on his twin are confusing.
But at the end of the day, when the house is quiet and Wilbur sits on the porch and plays guitar and watches frogs and birds and bugs, Ghostbur thinks that he likes Wilbur. He thinks that Wilbur is not a bad guy.
Love is confusing.
How they react when they are feeling joy or sadness
:D
For happiness, it’s almost exactly like canon; his voice gets super high-pitched and squeaky, he smiles a lot, he has a great time. Basically, wholesome. So darn wholesome.
His joy is absolutely contagious. You can’t not smile when Ghostbur smiles, I mean come on. Especially when he’s super happy :D
Hugs!! He definitely hugs!! He hugs when he’s happy!! Tommy quite likes the hugs (sometimes aksgaksgjag) and he’s learned that it’s something Ghostbur loves doing, so he mostly lets Ghostbur hug as much as he wants :)
And happy bouncing, as well. Ghostbur does little happy bounces; sometimes jumping a few inches into the air, but often just bending his knees a little bit (I do this sometimes when I’m happy!).
There’s a lot of other times when Ghostbur’s joy is much quieter, however—BUT NO LESS WHOLESOME!!!
For example, just being around Tommy is enough to make him very happy :) So like, at night when the both of them are a bit sleepy and sitting on the couch, Ghostbur will smile to himself and not say a word, content to let Tommy rest. Content to just be.
Ghostbur loves the quiet moments, man. He just loves ‘em.
He also likes to trace his finger along Tommy’s hand, when he’s happy!! Going over all the lines and such, quiet and thinking about how every human hand is different and looks different and feels different, and how wonderful that is. He’s glad that Tommy’s hands are soft.
For sadness… :0
Ghostbur’s definitely a denier; when he’s feeling sad or not-happy, he never likes to say that or admit that to anyone—even to himself. He’ll try and convince himself that he’s happy, or distract himself with things that will make him happy, or simply… metaphorically run away from the bad thoughts, and desperately try to forget them. If he forgets, then they’re not real.
…right?
It’s not very healthy :( The poor man needs to be more honest with himself, and more open about this to people :(( GAHHHHHHH I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND WANT TO GIVE HIM A HUG AND LET HIM CRY ON ME <333
Almost always, Ghostbur reaches a breaking point, when the bad thoughts get too loud and take up too much of the space inside his head, and he can’t feel happy and he doesn’t feel happy, and he’s scared and he just wants to feel right again but he doesn’t and that really scares him.
When that happens, pretty much the only thing left to do is… cry. And thing is, Ghostbur doesn’t cry all that much! He really dislikes crying, and tries not to do it at all! But when he feels like this—sad and scared and scared and scared and scared—he can’t stop crying. And he hates it, he hates how much he cries, he hates how he can’t stop, but he doesn’t know what else to do.
Every once in a while Tommy will find him crying, and trying to be quiet about it so that Tommy doesn’t see. When that happens, Tommy just hugs him, and Ghostbur hugs back, and there’s… Lots of crying. Lots of it.
And then afterward, Ghostbur is “back to normal” and tries not to think about crying or sad things or scary things! It’s… definitely not a healthy way to live :(
I THINK WILBUR’S GONNA HELP WITH THIS MAYBE. I DON’T WANT GHOSTBUR TO BE LIKE THIS FOREVER.
Scariest moment of their life
Oh… man :(
Honestly, Ghostbur could make a list of all the scariest moments of his life—that is, if Ghostbur actually acknowledged those moments, which he doesn’t.
I’m still figuring out the specifics of his backstory, but I do know that…
He’s drowned at least once (hence his fear of water/not knowing how to swim)
He’s watched some people die (more than one)
Bad things have happened to Tommy
Ghostbur couldn’t stop the bad things from happening to Tommy
Ghostbur blames himself for the bad things that happened to Tommy
He’s also Very afraid of doctors/needles, but I’m not sure exactly why yet :0
#modern au Ghostbur… I love him#Pinestripe Pinestripe Pinestripe THANK YOU for asking about this it made me so so happy :D#I absolutely loved rambling about it XD#ask#ask game answers#Pinestripe tag#ghostbur & Tommy modern au#also I just. realized#how much I projected onto Ghostbur in this AU#my goodness#aaaaaah I don’t usually project but as I was reading this over I was like#dang. that’s uh. yeah that’s me lol *nervousness*#Y’KNOW WHAT IT’S FINE IT’S ALL GOOD THINGS ARE GREAT#gosh I love Ghostbur so kriffing much

What's your favorite fic you've written?
Mmm… out of the posted ones, probably Bloody Miracles! I really like that one and I’m still really happy with it, even after about a year (I think) of it being posted :)
As far as WIPs go, there’s one about Ghostbur and Tommy and it’s soooo fluffy and it was so… soothing to write, I suppose? Comforting? A very cozy scene :))
Which of your fics was the most emotionally difficult to write?
Ooh, good one :0 Let’s see, umm…
I quite enjoy writing angst, so most of my fics aren’t too difficult to write in that regard 😅
Endless Field, Singing Tree, Blue Sweater (Dandelion) probably made me feel the most things, and I literally had to change the ending because the original one made me too sad XD
And there’s a series of Ghostbur poems I’m working on at the moment, and last night it definitely… got a bit hard. The poems got a good bit darker emotion-wise and I actually felt chilled as I wrote a specific one. It made me quite sad :(
#Pinestripe tag#ask#ask game answers#in short Ghostbur isn’t doing well and he’s thinking things that are so wrong and he doesn’t value his life and he’s very CLEAR about that f#that fact and he really really needs a hug

there should be more of this type of fic/art
I already answered this (more Ghostbur-centric fics!!) but my second answer would be… more Tommy and Ghostbur-centric fics alsgaksgkagsjs
The two have such an amazing and beautiful relationship and hardly anyone talks about them 😭
THAT REMINDS ME THAT I ACTUALLY NEED TO GO CHECK THEIR TAG ON A03 AND SEE IF I CAN FIND ANYTHING GOOD I’LL BE RIGHT BACK
Edit: OH MY GOSH I FOUND A FIC. I FOUND A FIC. A GOOD FIC. ABOUT GHOSTBUR AND TOMMY. OH MY GOSH. I AM ALSGAKSGJAFSHSFW
LOOK LOOK LOOOOOOOOK!!!! THERE’S PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY SANDWICHES!!! AND!!! AND :(((
It’s also free of swear words, which is always a nice surprise in DSMP fanfics 😅
The author responded to my comment in literally two minutes lol
your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores
…Ghostbur and Tommy’s relationship XD
I just love them, okay? Absolutely adore these two. Freaking phenomenal.
There’s Ghostbur, who’s very closely intertwined with Wilbur—has his voice (sort of) and his face and even some of his memories—and as a result, everyone sees Ghostbur as Wilbur, more or less. They don’t see him as Ghostbur, they see him as Wilbur’s ghost. There’s a very big difference there.
And then there’s Tommy—the one person on the entire server who truly saw Ghostbur as someone different from Wilbur, someone who wasn’t Wilbur. Tommy treated Ghostbur like his own person!! He treated Ghostbur with actual kindness and made sure he was loved, and I will NEVER GET OVER THAT
Heck, Tommy was the only person who grieved after Ghostbur was killed; the kid made a little memorial thingy, took care of Friend, got very upset whenever Wilbur would say mean things about Ghostbur, and clearly got sad whenever Ghostbur was even mentioned. It was clear to anyone that Tommy loved Ghostbur and really, truly missed him :’(
And don’t even get me started on Exile! Ghostbur was the only one who consistently visited Tommy—which helped Tommy feel a lot less lonely—and he helped make Exile into a home, into Logstedshire! Or at least, as much of a home as it could be.
Ghostbur even made a little house for Tommy to stay in 🥺 Even though Tommy stubbornly insisted on staying in a tent (which he built really badly if I’m remembering right lol. It was either Ghostbur or Dream who had to step in and help Tommy out XD)
And Ghostbur took pictures of L’manburg and brought those pictures back for Tommy to look at, and he made both Tommy and Tubbo matching compasses that pointed to each other (friendship compasses!!) because Ghostbur knew how much the two meant to each other and how much they loved each other! Ghostbur literally said, “your favorite thing in the whole world is Tubbo!” to Tommy 🥺 HE KNEW HOW MUCH CLINGY DUO AKSGAKSGJAGSJWGS GAH!!!!
This is very rambly, but what I’m trying to say is that Ghostbur and Tommy’s relationship is darn special, and it’s a shame that hardly anyone pays attention to that. I just love them <3
common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing
Kinda switching gears here, but when people use cc!Dream as a reason to hate the Dream SMP, I just… ugh.
Just because the creators/actors/writers/etc of a piece of media do bad things or make bad decisions or do things that you don’t agree with, that doesn’t mean that the actual media is bad.
Heck, Dream wasn’t even the main part of DSMP! There were loads of other things, like L’manburg and Tommy and Wilbur and Bad and the Eggpire and Las Nevadas and Beeduo and November 16th and so many others, that were way more important than Dream’s character!! I’d definitely say that Dream wasn’t the reason that DSMP got popular or became so good; it was because of other people, and their stories and their arcs. That’s what got people into DSMP. Not Dream.
If you don’t want anything to do with Dream, that’s perfectly fine!! But hating DSMP because of that… is kinda weird to me? Because what you’re doing is casting aside all of the wonderful stories that don’t have anything to do with Dream, y’know? That doesn’t seem fair. That seems weird.
I have a lot of thoughts about this issue aksgajsgajfs
#it’s so FRUSTRATING#there’s been so many people that have left the fandom because of Dream and while I DEFINITELY get not wanting anything to do with the#with the content creator/his character I REALLY DON’T UNDERSTAND why these people#also just… ignore all the other content creators and their characters and their stories#because a lot of them don’t have anything to do with Dream#y’know??#I just think it’s weird#I personally don’t like the content creator but I draw a line between him and his character#and his character isn’t even a favorite of mine alsgaksgkagshs#I just pay attention to everyone else XD#I don’t know if this made senseeeeee but aw well 😅#ask#ask game answers#my dsmp thoughts#Pinestripe tag

Aaaaah yes, I know!! I got really excited when I saw this ask game :D
Ghostbur
Favorite line
Dang, this one’s hardddd! He has so many good lines!!
“You die in the end, so we may as well just be friends.” — Just… 🥺🥺🥺
The fact that he sees fighting and enemies and arguing as ultimately pointless, and thinks that just getting along is the better option… I think it says a lot about his character, and I hekkin love it :)
“I sowed the seeds of peace, yet I’m the one who pays for war.” — THE POETICNESS?? HELLO???
“Villains are just heroes you haven’t convinced yet.” — This is a paraphrase because I can’t quite remember the exact wording, but LAGSJSVSJSVAHSC!!! And the fact that he’s talking about Wilbur makes it hit a lot harder dangggg
Unpopular opinion about them
He does have childish aspects about him!
I think a lot of people are worried that Ghostbur will be infantilized if anyone refers to him as childish, and I get that! Unfortunately, a lot of people do infantilize him, and it’s really sad to see :(
But when people try to ignore all the parts of Ghostbur that really are more childish, they end up not getting the full picture. Yes, he runs away from bad/scary things and has a best friend who’s a sheep and speaks in a very simple manner… and that’s fine?? That’s just Ghostbur! That’s how he is, and I think it’s cool!
Ghostbur can have childish aspects about him while still being an interesting, deep, beautiful character—and I’d argue that his childish aspects make him more interesting, actually! I find him really relatable because of that :)
If they had a tumblr what would it look like?
Very sweet and innocent! His blog colors would be light blue and purple, and he’d reblog photos of flowers and nature and creatures and people, and he’d make posts about little things like what he had for breakfast and what he saw on his walk with Friend, and he’d use lots of emoticons like :3 :D :))) ^-^
He’d post lots of pictures, too; of Friend, of Tommy, of leaves, of bugs, of him and Tommy and him and Friend and Sweet Blue sitting on a nest and Phil drinking tea and Techno definitely not wanting a picture alsvskvdksfs
I think he’d also post videos of him playing guitar and singing :) And it would be so calm and quiet and peaceful and he’d film it outside at twilight and there’d be bug-sounds in the background and wind blowing through leaves.
…now I’m sad that I can’t watch those videos :(
But yeah, his blog would be so darn sweet! He’d never post/reblog anything sad; his blog would be a safe place.
Though every once in a while, he’d make a short post asking why everything hurts, why everything is hard, why his head hurts when he thinks of hard things, why everyone looks at him strangely, why bad thoughts come when he can’t stop them.
And then the next day, the post would be deleted and he’d reblog a photo of a flock of sheep and everything would be normal again.
(I cannot tell you enough how much I wish this was real and that he had a blog I could follow I cannot TELL YOU ENOUGH-)
What they really think about themselves
Oooh… oh boy.
Ghostbur thinks that he’s weak. He thinks that he’s not as strong as Wilbur was, and not as great as him. He thinks that he can’t protect the people he loves, no matter how hard he tries. He thinks that he lets Tommy down again and again. He thinks that if he’d tried harder, then Tommy would be okay. He thinks that if he was a better protecter, then Friend would be okay. He thinks that if he listened better, he wouldn’t let so many people down. He thinks that people are disappointed in him—and why shouldn’t they be? Ghostbur’s disappointed in him, too.
Ghostbur thinks that he’s wrong. He thinks that maybe, if he tried hard enough, really truly tried, then he could be better. He could, maybe, be good. He could, maybe, help people. Just maybe.
But the thing is, Ghostbur doesn’t think that he ever tries hard enough. He always thinks he comes up short. He always thinks he ends up hurting people.
And he doesn’t want to. He really doesn’t want to. More than anything, he wants to be enough to help the people he loves, truly.
But he’s not. Ghostbur is not enough, and he will never be enough, and people will get hurt, and Ghostbur didn’t try hard enough. He never tries hard enough.
Great NOW I’M SAD!!! DUDE!!! GHOSTBUR I WANT TO GRAB YOU BY THE SHOULDERS AND LOOK INTO YOUR EYES AND SAY, “IT’S OKAY! YOU’RE OKAY! YOU HELP PEOPLE! YOU HELP TOMMY! YOU DIDN’T LET HIM DOWN! HE LOVES YOU, GHOSTBUR! YOU ARE LOVED! YOU ARE SO UNBELIEVABLY LOVED! I PROMISE!”
If they could have lunch with anyone in the world (living or dead, from any fictional universe or the real world), who would it be?
Easy: Tommy and Friend :)
Ghostbur wouldn’t really care about having lunch with anyone else; Tommy and Friend are his very best friends in the whole world, so why would he choose others over them?
No no, they would all go to a nice little diner and Tommy and Ghostbur would sit in the booths (Ghostbur insisted that they sit on the same booth, much to Tommy’s annoyance) and Friend would sit next to the table and they would all get yummy food and Friend would get a nice big salad with fruits and veggies and green leaves and Tommy would get pasta and Ghostbur would get a hot dog and Tommy would get marinara sauce on his face and Ghostbur would take his own sweet time eating and he’d keep pausing so he could pet Friend and it drives Tommy crazy and then Ghostbur and Tommy talk for a long time until they get hungry again and they order cream soda ‘n ice cream floats and Ghostbur uses a straw and Tommy uses a spoon and Friend gets a bunch of fresh fruit and they’re all very happy and it’s a lovely time <3
Friend
Best personality trait
His devotion—he’s always there for Ghostbur, no matter what. Heck, even when Friend dies he always returns for Ghostbur, without fail. He loves Ghostbur, and Ghostbur loves him, and aaaaaaah <3
OH OH OH!!! OH MY GOSH!!! PINESTRIPE I DON’T KNOW IF YOU’VE SEEN THIS CLIP YET BUT OH MY GOSH!!! IT’S CANON AND SET IN LIMBO AND AND AND AKAVSKWVSKSGSJ (ignore the chat box lol)
IT MADE ME TEAR UP JUST NOW!!! GHOSTBUR QUIETLY CRYING AND FRIEND SHOWING UP AND LOOKING AROUND AND “BAA-ING” WHEN HE SEES GHOSTBUR AND GHOSTBUR’S VOICE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
How they feel about Sweet Blue
Sweet Blue my beloveddddd!
For those who don’t know, me and Pinestripe came up with a chicken OC that Ghostbur adopts, because why the heck not? :)
I think that Friend is chill about her. Friend doesn’t really have a super loud personality, so he doesn’t… show that much affection lol. He’s just Chill.
He’ll gently nudge Sweet Blue away from a dangerous bug or a creek, and let her rest on his back while he walks, and even let her make a next in his wool, but he’s not like, all over her or anything 😅
He loves her, that’s for sure. He loves her a whole bunch, and is quite protective—partially because she’s young and partially because she’s small.
Their idea of a perfect day
Cool weather, fluffy clouds, blue sky, gentle breeze, fields of green grass, bugs singing, leaves rustling, and, of course, Ghostbur at his side <3
(And a carrot would definitely Improve the day lol)
On a more simple note, a day where Ghostbur is happy; the ghost has far too many hard days, where he’s upset or crying or stays inside or buries his face into Friend’s wool and sobs. Friend doesn’t like those days. He doesn’t like it when Ghostbur is upset.
So when Ghostbur is happy and smiling and pointing at bugs and laughing and gazing up at the sky and petting Friend and walking through the woods and hugging his sheep, Friend is also happy. Very, very happy.
#oh wow this was fun to answer :D#thank you soooooo much for the ask yippee!!!#ask#Pinestripe tag#my DSMP thoughts#OH ALSO#PINESTRIPE#I think I came up with another animal OC for Ghostbur :0#I don’t have a name or personality yet#but he’s a Great Pyrenees dog and he’s super gentle and great for hugging :)))#I want to make him a more solid character and then I would like to write about him!!#oh my gosh Ghostbur just has a flock now 🥺#a ghost and a sheep and a chicken and a dog#AWWWWWW#ask game answers#ghostposting
