beomgyu x fem!reader

warnings: sub!beomgyu, sex (?) this contains smut, not proofread, MDNI, beomgyu pov-ish

a/n: no summary cause i couldn't tell you what this is about. this is my first time writing anything like this, i wrote it on my notes so im not sure how many words there are, i think too many, this is without a doubt too long, pls bear with me. also english is not my first language, if something doesn't make sense well idk figure it out pretty pls, thankssss 🫶

"she's my girlfriend," beomgyu said, his expression a mask of utter sincerity.

his words hung in the air, the silence filled with unspoken questions.

yeonjun squinted at him, scrutinizing his face before glancing at taehyun then back at him. "so, you're saying… you have like a crush on her?"

an exasperated sigh escaped beomgyu. “what? no!" he protested "i mean, yes? wait no..” he closed his eyes and said slowly “… it’s like i said it. she’s my girlfriend for real.”

the weight of his words hanged heavily, yet his friends remained speechless, drinks on their hands and stares like daggers.

beomgyu shifted uncomfortably, unsure of what to do to stop them from looking at him like that.

"i just don't understand what's so surprising about it," he muttered, a pout forming on his lips.

—

choi beomgyu had always been the epitome of charisma. from his looks to his charm, whether he stepped into a crowded room or sauntered down a bustling street, all eyes gravitated toward him, and once you got an interaction, you will just want him to sty forever.

he was well-known and well-liked everywhere he went: university corridors, his guitar lessons, basketball practice, even the corner store near his apartment. everyone seemed to gravitate toward him, drawn in by his undeniable charm.

he likes to think he got that from his mother.

beomgyu, reveling in the spotlight, thrived on the attention. the way people's faces lit up upon his arrival was a drug he couldn't resist.

specially when he is so used to getting his way. always obtaining whatever he wanted whenever he wanted it, never in a malicious or manipulative way, he was bold, confident, overly friendly and people loved him. asking was usually all it took.

so, all things considered, he'd never struggled to draw the attention of those he found attractive. one could almost say he had his pick of the litter.

he thinks it might be true.

that is the reason why setting his sights on you should be the most foolish thing beomgyu has ever done in his entire existence. and yet, there he was, unable to resist the pull, despite the warning bells ringing in the depths of his mind.

from the first time he met you, in his advanced music business class, it was as though you existed in a world entirely apart from his own. not responding to any of his advances was an odd sight for him.

initially, he brushed it off, attributing it to a fleeting lapse or perhaps an uncharacteristic bad mood on your part. after all, he reasoned, he was an attention seeker, but he certainly wasn't a psychopath.

yet, after you acted the same way the next time, and the next, and the next time he tried to talk to you, he couldn’t help but take it personally.

he soon realized it wasn't merely a matter of wounded ego. from the very first meeting, he had mustered his most charming smile just for you. after all, he thought you might just be the prettiest girl he had ever seen in his life. and after just a few classes, he realized you were also one of the smartest people he knew.

it’s been a long while, but everything about you seemed to snag his attention, like you were the main character in a movie and he couldn't take his eyes off the screen.

so, whyy you, out of everyone, had to be the one to him the cold shoulder like that? or even better, why couldn’t he just like someone who liked him back?

he soon came to find out, thanks to his seat mate, jun, that your behavior was not uncommon.

he couldn't shake off the words his friend had offered in consolation: "don't sweat it, she's like that with pretty much everyone."

of course, in true beomgyu fashion, he couldn't help but sweat it.

he did pick up on your vibe—not shy at all, like he thought at first, but definitely serious and reserved— still, he wasn't accustomed to blending in with the crowd like that; being treated like “pretty much everyone” didn't sit right with him.

"it's all so high school," jun chuckled then, shaking his head. "but seriously, they actually nicknamed her the ice queen.”

now it seems like getting on your good side might be a task for the gods.

good thing he is known for always getting what he wants.

—

taking a sip of boba should never be this unpleasant. except that time he order matcha when he meant taro, beomgyu has always treated his boba runs as a particularly happy time. right now though, it isn’t going so well. especially when yeonjun goes “you’re fucking lying,” with a snickering tone.

“i only lied when i told you that mesh shirt you’re wearing was a look.”

“how dare you”

beomgyu then stands up and looks at the counter. there are only a couple of tapioca pearls left on his drink and he thinks he might ask for some more. are tapioca pearls refills allowed in this place? he doesn’t think they’re allowed anywhere, but he might as well ask.

“ok, ok, sit back down hyung,” taehyun tugs him from his arm, “when did this even happened?”

“i only have like two tapioca pearls left,” beomgyu ignores him and yeonjun goes, “he is talking about boba because he is lying.” he laughs. “there is no way. not even for you, gyu.”

“look, i don’t know what is so unbelievable about me and y/n being together now,”

“y/n and me,” taehyun corrects

“what?”

“the correct way to say it is ‘y/n and me’, not ‘me and y/n,” taehyun looks at beomgyu after sipping his own cup, “it can depend on the context of the sentence, like both are grammatically correct, but ‘y/n and me’ is considered mo-“

“what on actual fucking earth are you talking about?“

“that is literally not important!” yeonjun interrupts them both with a loud voice, “can we please come back to the topic and know why are you lying about y/n being your girlfriend?”

beomgyu glares at yeonjun, throwing his straw to the trashcan right next to them. they came in quite late to the boba shop and didn’t get the best table. it is a popular place after all.

“for the millionth time, yeonjun, i’m not lying!” he says with wide eyes. “what is it that you want? i can call her right now, put her on speaker and asker to tell you how much she likes me, yeah?”

yeonjun narrows his eyes at him, suspicious. “do it.”

“you’re fucking kidding me-“

the door chimes and yeonjun’s attention is momentarily taken by the sound. beomgyu takes advantage of this and quickly sizes his cup only to realize his mistake too late and have the matcha flavor assaulting his taste buds. he thinks it is a pretty cruel trick on the universe’s part.

he chokes back a gag and it’s impossible for taehyun to not roll his eyes. he appears to be inmune to beomgyu’s charm, consequences of their close friendship.

yeonjun’s laughter fills the air once he realizes what happened. “that’s what you get,“ he says.

“how can you drink that?”

“matcha is tasty,” with a grin on his face, yeonjun shrugs.

“matcha is a sin,” beomgyu retorts, wrinkling his nose in distaste.

taehyun's interruption brought a halt to the conversation. “the way you are just unwilling to talk about it makes me think that yeonjun might be onto something,” he muses, propping his chin on his hand.

“why would i lie about me being in a relationship with someone?”

“you tell us,” yeonjun says mockingly.

taehyun fixes him with a pointed look. “yeonjun stop,” he says and then looks at this other friend, “beomgyu, it is not really about you being in a relationship. it is about with who.”

“what’s is wrong with y/n?” he asks with a pout on his lips.

“oh nothing,” yeonjun scoffs. “except everyone says she is quite literally a bi-“

beomgyu's voice cut through the air with a sharp edge, his tone tinged with seriousness. "watch it, yeonjun,.” he warned, his gaze unwavering.

yeonjun raised his eyebrows, surprised by beomgyu's sudden change in demeanor. "i was just going to say she's quite literally a big fan of not making friends,” he finished instead, eyes wide.

taehyun intervened swiftly, sensing the tension rising. "beomgyu," he began, his tone soft, "i'm not doubting your feelings, but we kind of know y/n's reputation. she's known for being... distant, self-centered even. i just don't want to see you get hurt because you're too trusting."

taehyun's words struck a chord with beomgyu, but before he could respond, yeonjun chimed in, his voice tinged with remorse. "he's right, gyu," he admitted, a hint of regret on his tone. “and i'm sorry about before. but still, you need to be careful. y/n... people have tried to get close to her before, and it hasn't gone well."

beomgyu's heart sank at yeonjun's words, the weight of their implications settling heavily on his shoulders.

"look," he begins, his voice tinged with a mixture of conviction and uncertainty, "y/n is different, okay? she's not like anyone else i've ever met. and maybe i haven't been completely open about it because... because i know how you guys get. but i mean it when i say i’ve known her like other people haven’t. she is good.”

there's a pause as beomgyu searches for the right words, a shadow of vulnerability flickering across his features. "she's not just some stereotype or rumor," he continues, "there's more to her than that ‘ice queen’ nonsense."

as the trio leave the place, beomgyu sips on his refilled boba. turns out they definitely don’t do refills, but, “just for you,” they said.

he even got another straw.

—

“and that’s my problem how?” you asked with straight expression.

the girl in front of you stumbled over her words, her voice quivering as she tries to play it off with a quiet laugh. "i-i’m not saying it's your problem," she began cautiously. "but, like, your signature could totally convince mr. yang to extend the due date. if we all get on board, he'd have to at least consider it. please?”

"no," you reply.

she blinks, caught off guard. “wait, what? i mean, i’m sorry?"

leaning back, taking a sip of your iced coffee, you return your gaze to your book. “you’re good,” you say in an almost nonchalant tone. "i’d just rather not be disturbed while i’m reading.”

she recoils, her nervous vibe replaced by incredulity. "i'm not apologizing to you!" she snaps back before taking a deep breath. "i just—why not? it literally doesn’t hurt you at all to sign? we really need your help y/n. it will even give you more time to finish your own stuff! ”

"already finished it,” you say, not even making eye contact.

she let out a surprised squeak, but recovered quickly.

"well, i guess that's cool for you," she muttered. "but, like, we need your signature or mr. yang won't even look at the petition.”

nothing from your part.

mr. yang was a no-nonsense professor who smelled of tobacco and liked to look at everyone over his glasses as to remind you he is much more smarter than you. he hands out tough tasks, but always provides the necessary materials to complete them. though you weren't his favorite student, and he certainly wasn't your favorite teacher, you excelled in his class, meeting his high expectations. but you worked hard to get things done.

"look,” she sighed, “i know you're really smart, but some of us are really… struggling.“ she sighed sadly. ”it's taking forever to get through the text he sent, you know? if we all, like, come together and help each other out, we could totally make it happen. i don’t think he’d said no. what do you say?" she finished, giving you this hopeful look.

a look that was met with silence.

"y/n?" she tries again.

anna, the heroine in your book, seems genuinely tormented and you’re really starting to feel bad for her. if only she didn’t chose the red door. the blue door was the obvious right choice, but she decided to be adventurous. now, she will probably die. can vampires die? they can, you remember. in twilight, you have to cut them in little pieces and-

"hello?! earth to y/n?" you hear a loud voice in front of your face.

you glance up. right, the ‘help us change the due date’ girl from your class. can’t really say you remember her name.

“you're still here?" you ask flatly. can people get any more annoying?

"oh my god, seriously?!" she practically yells this time. "i can't believe you're such a bitch!"

suddenly, and before things could escalate further, beomgyu swoops in, looking all concerned. "whoa, what's going on?" he asks, his guitar hanging on his shoulder. “i heard yelling.”

beomgyu looks exceptionally good today, you decide. his dark, long hair framing his beautiful face, and eyes so deep and brown, you could not wait to get him alone…

"hey, beomie," you greet him with a smile. "nothing much. ready to leave?"

you've been waiting for him to finish his composition class. your own class got cut short, and you were ready to head home, but beomgyu insisted on spending the rest of the day with you, asking if you could wait for his class to end.

there's someone you can't say no to, and that's choi beomgyu, you've come to realize.

without waiting for an answer, you toss your book into your bag, grab your iced coffee, and take his hand, leading him towards the exit. your classmate watches you with wide eyes, speechless with incredulity. beomgyu glances back a little confused, offering her an apologetic smile and a quick wave as if to to smooth things over.

once outside, hand in hand, beomgyu asks carefully, "what was that?"

"oh, nothing at all,” you brush it off.

"she seemed mad," he remarks, and you stop in your tracks, making him stumble a little.

"did she? i didn't notice," you say, teasingly. "but i did notice i haven't kissed you yet."

with a playful glint in your eyes, you tilt his chin up with one hand and lean in, closing the distance between you as your lips meet in a slow, lingering kiss. beomgyu sighs contentedly, wrapping his arms around you, pulling you closer.

"you're the sweetest," he whispers against your lips, screaming girls all forgotten.

—

“look at this video i took on saturday,” jun leans over the table to show a clip to beomgyu as they sat with a couple of his classmates at the uni cafe. beomgyu recognizes the place as the han river, and the performers on the clip as a dance team yeonjun showed him before.

“oh, i know them!” he says with a big smile, “they’re sooo good. don’t you think they should be like performing on music videos or something?”

“they should,” jun agrees. “i’ve seen them on tiktok though, and they’re making really big numbers.”

“oh shit, yeah, me too! i keep telling y/n to come with me to see them whenever yeonjun tells me they have a showcase.”

this caught the attention of gina, a girl from his music production class “i’m sorry, but i still can't believe you're with her, gyu.” she remarks shaking his head incredulously.

beomgyu looks up from his phone to give her a questioning look, “what?”

“ah, she’s right” hyunjin says through bites of his ham sandwich, "i mean, she's smoking hot, but she's also a total ice queen."

beomgyu glares at him. "come on, not this again, not with the higschool nickname stuff” he defended “she is not an ice anything, you calling her that is cringe. i’ll have you know, she is really sweet, actually.”

"sweet? seriously, beomgyu?" hyejin chimed in, eyebrows raised in disbelief. "every time i've tried talking to her, she acts like i don't even exist."

“sh-“

"yeah, and remember when she snapped at mark for accidentally bumping into her? it was like she thought she was too good to even acknowledge him."

“but-“

"and what about that time she ignored seungmin’s text asking for help with the assignment? she could have at least replied!”

beomgyu's heart sank as he listened to his friends.

“remember last week? what she did to lilly? the stuff with the signatures? honestly, she is such a bitch sometimes…”

before beomgyu could respond, you happened to walk past their table, expression as frosty as ever. misinterpreting their conversation, you shot beomgyu a hurt look before walking away.

"great, now she thinks we're all talking behind her back," gina mutters with a wary look on her face.

beomgyu watches you go away, his heart sinking with the weight of the misunderstanding, realizing you must think you were talking bad about her too.

he stands up abruptly, “for the record,” he interjects with a sharp voice “this better be the last time i hear any of you calling her names, i won't stand for anyone disrespecting her. we’re done.”

glaring at all of them, he turned and strode out of the café, leaving his former friends speechless. outside, he quickened his pace, determined to catch up to you and make things right before it was too late.

—

the doorbell rings incessantly, echoing through the hallway as beomgyu refuses to give up. he's been following you from the school building to your apartment, his determination evident in every step he takes. but despite his efforts, you continued to ignore him, driving him to the brink of frustration.

beomgyu knows he's pushing it, but the thought of you disregarding him like this drives him crazy. with each ring of the doorbell, he feels a surge of desperation, making him want to rip all his hair out.

he keeps ringing the bell and knocking on the door with urgency. he's fully aware that he's risking disturbing the neighbors, they may even call the police.

he’ll risk going to jail for you, he thinks.

finally, the door swings open with a sharp smack, and you're standing there, glaring at him. "knock it off!" you yell, frustration evident in your voice.

despite your fiery eyes, he’s just glad to see your face.

"i'm sorry," beomgyu blurts out, his words coming out in a rush. “but i am sorry you had to listen to that, not sorry because i was agreeing with them or anything, because i was not. i definitely was not, in fact i was letting them know how wonderful and sweet you are, is honestly what i always do. they’re not even my friends anymore. i literally ended it with them. i let them know, oh fuck, i always let everyone know you’re perfect and sweet and the best person i've ever met in my life and that i'm just so so lucky to have you and i love you more than anything and i don’t care about what anyone says because you’re always so, so good to me.”

his words spill out in a jumbled mess, but the sincerity in his voice is unmistakable. beomgyu's desperation is palpable, his rambling emotions laid bare.

you stare at beomgyu, your expression neutral, as his words hang in the air between you. his eyes search yours desperately and, for a moment, he thinks he might have finally pushed you too far, that his rambling confession may have been a mistake.

but then, without warning, you break the tension with two simple words. "come in," you say.

relief floods beomgyu's features as he exhales a shaky breath, the weight lifting from his shoulders. without hesitation, he steps through the doorway, the sound of the door clicking shut behind him.

—

beomgyu is standing right in front of you, in your bed, with red cheeks in anticipation.

“beomie, do you think i’m a bitch?” you ask with a teasing pout on your lips.

“no! no, no, no i don’t” he responds, looking up at you with puppy eyes, long lashes and a slight frown on his face

“correct,” you concede, putting his hair behind his ear softly “you were dying for me to even look at you, beomie, so i did. how can i be a bitch when i give all you the attention you so desperately beg from me?”

beomgyu exhales, clearing his throat to prevent himself for making any noise. you look down at him, his dark hair, indolent eyes and pouting lips. so pretty, just for you.

“answer me.”

“you’re not, you are so good to me, you’re always so good to me.” he whines, but somehow his voice gets lower. aching to touch you, but keeping his hands on his side, just like he was told.

“that’s right.” you go down and crawl between his thighs slowly. he feels hot wherever you touch him. “i’m so good to you…” you concede as you reach out with confident fingers and grab the waist of his pants and start drawing them down. you pause halfway, though. a teasing smirk playing on your lips. "but, do you deserve it, beomie?" you ask, your tone laced with mock concern.

beomgyu's breath escapes him in rapid bursts, too stunned to speak, but he knows better than not to answer you.

“no..” he chockes out “i don’t deserve it, don’t deserve you.”

“you’re right, you don’t deserve any of it,” you remind him, “good thing i’m so wonderful and sweet right?” you mock as you shove the rest of his pants and underwear down in a quick motion.

his cock comes up against his stomach, twitchy and veiny and your mouth is watering at the sight in front of you, wanting nothing more than for him to cum down your throat. but today is not the day.

beomgyu chews down hard on his lip and closes his eyes at the feeling of you liberating his length. he’s always been too sensitive, but with you he feels like it’s always the first time.

“open your eyes, beomie,” you tell him. “i want you to see and remember what you have to be grateful for.”

he opens his eyes in an instant just for him to watch you slowly wrap your mouth around his tip. he sucks in a a hiss and let’s out a groan when you draw your lips with a light pressure down his cock until he hits the back of your throat, only to come back up and leave a trail of saliva along the way.

“fuuck,” he lets out with a trembling breath. “oh my god”

you put him on your mouth again and swirl your tongue around him, he hits the start of your throat once again and slide up and down, up and down. you wrapped your lips around his tip one more time before running the flat of your tongue up his cock slowly and you stare directly into his eyes,

beomgyu is a mess of flushed skin and teary eyes and can’t stop whimpering at the feeling and sight of you using your mouth on him, he swallows, throat dry and bites his bottom lip to prevent him from spluttering nonsense.

“i don- don’t know if i can- fuuuck- i- i can’t.. can’t hold it, fuck y/n , you’re so- so good to me-“

with his hands on your hair loosing himself to the feeling of your mouth on him, you can’t help but moan on his cock as you can already taste his pre-cum on your tongue, threatening to spill past your lips. you take you mouth off of him. “beomie, don’t cum yet-“ you say between licks, before spitting on him, lubricating and using your hand instead “- baby, hold it in, not yet.”

“i- i can’t, i can’t” he cries and you stop, his chest going up and down aggressively before lifting his face to look up at you. lips red and shinny from biting hard and cheeks rosy from all the pleasure. you think he has never look this pretty.

he sits up trembling, looking at you you slide your drenched panties off. then you straddle his lap, looking at his red erection up and proud, tip right at your entrance, and without any warning, you take his cock in your hand go down on him inch by inch, his arms coming around your torso in desperation as you hold yourself up wrapping yours around his neck, holding each other so close you could feel echother’s heartbeat.

you completely sink down on him and you both gasp, automatically making you clench around him.

“fuuck, baby” beomgyu hissed. his hands coming down to your waist to keep you in place, he’s afraid he would cum in a second if you moved an inch. “don’t move, please”

so, you raised your hips and you both let out a breathy moan as you sat back down again. he whines.

“you can do it beomie, hold it baby” you purr in his mouth. repeating the action again and again. “don’t you want me to fuck you?”

“ye- yes please,- fuuuck yes” he cries, holding you close. always eager to please, he lets you do as you want. obeying you just in time for him to become a whimpering mess.

it was embarrassing, really, how affected he got in literal seconds. and you, with the sensation of having his cock filling you up, couldn’t help but use him like a toy.

“good boy,” you sing softly, breath hitching. “good, good boy. i knew you would let me use you like this. kne- knew you would like to make me happy. right beomie? because you love me? you want to- oh my god” you whine, bouncing up and down on him with urgency, felling him thus up to meet you halfway. “you want to make me feel good”

beomgyu feels like fire inside you, feeling you squeezing him so tight he feels himself closer and closer. he takes his hand from your waist to massage your breasts, knowing how sensitive your nipples are, making you sigh, earning him a kiss so lewd he’ll dream about it. “yes, thank you, please,” he cries, “i want- i want-“

“you can’t even talk beomie!” you chuckle dryly, “wh-what would your friends say if they saw you like this? huh?” you whispered on his mouth, the feeling so good its sending your blood rushing to your head as you keep fucking him stupid.

“their proud, confident beomgyu is just- fuck” you gasp at the feeling of his lips closing around your nipple, ”just a dirty slut? huh” you throw your head back to give him more access as you continue to bounce on his cock “ a begging little whore is what you are beomie”

he feels himself closer and closer, your dirty talking sending him over the edges he pleads, “just for you, i swear is just for you, i love you”

“good boy” you panted on his mouth again, feeling the sensation of your orgasm looming over your body and beomgyu was hit with the staggering force of his release as he came inside you, calling out your name in pleading gasps.

you blinked almost sleepily, looking down at your boyfriend and his post-fuck look, a small smile on his face as you leaned down to place a little kiss on his nose.

“love you too, pup.” you sighed.

—

not matcha, but not taro, either.

beomgyu feels like trying something new as he looks at the menu. the scent of sweet tapioca and freshly brewed tea surrounds you two and he thinks this is exactly what dreams are made of, yet deciding on just the right drink feels like an impossible task right this second.

so he scans the menu, his eyes flickering between the various options. yeonjun said their new horchata drink was good, but he doesn’t trust yeonjun’s taste.

“do you know what you’re ordering?” he asks you with big, round eyes.

you can't help but notice how his eyes resemble tapioca pearls – "just iced coffee," you reply with a hint of amusement.

“right,” beomgyu chuckles, realizing he should have guessed as much.

suddenly, the girl behind the counter approaches you, her bright smile matching the cheery vibe of the boba shop. "hi there! can i help you?" she chirps.

beomgyu's attention shifts to her, “oh! yes yes, just a second” he responds, his eyes scanning the menu once more.

"well, our special today is the pina colada boba blast," the girl continues with a playful tone "it's sweet, refreshing, and i guarantee you it will leave you wanting more!”

beomgyu looks up, and before he could respond, you step forward, "we'll figure it out ourselves, thanks," you say curtly.

the girl's smile falters slightly. "o-okay, let me know if you need any help," she mumbles, retreating to the safety of the register.

"come on, babe, she was just doing her job," beomgyu says, chuckling a little and reaching for your hand. "but i think is time for me to finally admit… there's something kind of hot about you being mean."

you rolled your r eyes, but a small smirk tugged at the corners of your lips. you figured that much way before he did “i’m not being mean, beomie,” you still say, feigning ignorance “i truly don’t know what you’re talking about.”

beomgyu grins, feeling a surge of affection for the girl by his side. as they placed their order and settled into a cozy corner of the boba shop, he couldn't help but think how happy he was to have you, even if you did have a bit of a mean streak.

something that i really appreciated about the eggs and their arc on the server is how much they grew to mean so much to the ccs and the audience.

from watching bad take care of the eggs late at night, to the morning crew's shenanigans, to keeping foolish company while he built; each parent/cc had a different relationship with those eggs.

of course foolish was my main pov and his relationship with the eggs were very different than the others. he treated them like they weren't fragile, in fact he treated them as equals. maybe it was a bit of lore of trying not to get too attached, or maybe it was a bit of cc foolish protecting himself, who knows.

so what makes today's reaction from foolish is just that much heartbreaking. i mean, the guy was tearing up, voice cracking, and gave us one of the most heart wrenching lines. i don't think anyone expected this egg event to go the way that it did. it was meant to last a couple of weeks as a competition. but instead it turned into lasting relationships between the ccs and the egg admins. especially the ones that had only one admin throughout the whole time, like leo, dapper, pomme, & richas. there will always be little things whether in that server, in minecraft, or in real life that will remind everyone of this arc, and i think that's beautiful.

it sucks that it ended the way that it did and that not all of the egg admins were able to say goodbye, but the memories will be eternally with each of us <3

#qsmp #qsmp eggs #qsmp leo #qsmp leonarda #qsmp richarlyson #qsmp foolish #qsmp pomme #qsmp dapper #also that bit with foolish and bad at the end hits home too #like the two immortal guys last left #lost their kids and everyone they love #like it hurts #foolish #foolish gamers

Anyways, that was a fun first day! Especially given my main povs are mostly in Red Team, which...well, I honestly did not expect them to have spiralled that hard the last half an hour? It was glorious to have witnessed though. Despite the frustrations and drawbacks, they really did claw it back?? Somehow??

I'm still sort of in a state of being overwhelmed, since I had like 14 tabs on and swapped between povs when I had to, and somehow that hit a level of stimulation that wasn't debilitating but just enriching for my brain which is one of the funniest things that came out from this.

We enjoyed seeing Charlie tryhard at being tactical??? We didn't realise until he mentioned it, that for a good 3 hours, he had not cracked a joke and went off being a spy and eavesdropper to help protect and give an advantage to his team. Like damn.

Carre was a GOAT?? HOLY SHIT???? And also, it was great that Cellbit managed to help bridge the communications between Carre and the rest of the team, after having gotten really great at spanish thanks to Roier. But man, that was unexpected but pleasant as they rallied with each other to fight back and complete the quests.

But my personal favourite moment is how BOLAS?!??!?! started fucking spiralling. The frustration had built up so much, the event pushed them SO HARD, that they threw out their Whole Ass character arcs out for EVERYONE IN THE TEAM TO HEAR. I am not sure if that was just them being meta so it's not actually a canon confession, BUT!! THE FACT THAT THEY DID!! THEY FUCKING TOLD ALL OF THEIR TEAMMATES THEIR DEEPEST SECRETS.

CELLBIT HAD KILLED THE WORKERS. FOOLISH HAD BEEN TRYING TO PROTECT HIM FOR THE ENTIRETY OF HIS INVESTIGATION. SLIME KNOWS THE FLIPPA HE'S HANGING OUT WITH WAS FAKE AND WAS CORRUPTING HIM AND IT FUCKING SCARES HIM. JAIDEN WOULD STAB THEM ALL FOR CUCURUCHO. THAT MUST HAVE BEEN CATHARTIC IN SOME FORM AT LEAST. THEY HAD JUST BEEN PUSHED THAT. FAR. TO SAY ALL OF IT IN THE OPEN.

It's funny!! Like MAN. WHAT A DAY.

Other fave moments:

-Etoiles being sad about killing Jaiden and Philza. Him wanting to be with Red and have fun with his broooosss. He kept apologising lmao

-Tubbo and Carre's beef, but Carre apologises and Tubbo forgives him, that was really sweet

-Etoiles and Roier!!! Yessss give me more interactions of their cubitos thank youuu

-Bad being BOLAS?!?!?!?'s enemy #1 LMAO

-Foosh fucking CRITTING BAD, JESUS THAT WAS SO QUICK??? He did not escape damn

-Carre being hunted by Tubbo and Niki, and Cellbit helping coach him on how to hide his name in the map and he manages to kill Tubbo and Niki instead, JESUS

-Charlie's rants, nuff said

-Charlie and Cellbit fucking doing a stick fight pvp (Etoiles would have loved it so much, please let the man chill with Red next time he misses his friends)

-Tubbo and Aypierre??? Team up??? Oh my goddd, I'm so happy to see them working on the same side, like reminded of the fact that Aypierre had wanted to adopt him when Tubbo was first announced to join LMAO

-FOOLISH AND PHIL BEING FUCKING IMMORTALS????? THEY HAD NOT FUCKING DIED FOR NEARLY THE ENTIRE STREAM, HOLY SHIT, BOTH OF THEM ARE CRACKED AT THE CRAFT AND WERE POPPING OFF

-KAMETO??? EATING A PUFFERFISH?? AND GOING DOWN TO HALF A HEART AND FREAKED OUT LMAOOO (and then he ended stream KEK)

-Fit reverting back to his good ol 2b2t self, my man is toxic, let’s go, it's good enrichment for him, probably reminds him of the Incursions he participated 🥰

-SPREEN AND DANTDM CANONICALLY DEAD??? I mean, I feel it's a bit of a sad reveal since that means they don't have plans to come back to the server, but at least their characters got some sort of closure...?

-RUBIUS???? LOGGING IN??? BEING TURNED MORTAL???? Too bad with issues on his game not working, that sucked, hope that works next time and the admins help him to fix it and he joins!!!

-ARIN STREAM??? THIS MAN IS SO CRYPTIC STILL WHAT’S GOING ONNNN

-Bad??? Stealing Jaiden's strawhat??? BRuhhhhhhh

-Charlie goading Bad to a battle?? I think that was hilarious, but then the Sun Became A Deadly Laser and Charlied dried

-Phil did the entire Casulones emote oh my god, they finally did it

-But!! Red chose him to be the leader, and I thought that awesome, that's so deserved

-THE FACT THEY PUT THE RPers AND ENIGMA SOLVERS IN ONE TEAM LMAO, THESE GUYS BARELY KNOW HOW TO MAKE A BOOK AND HADN'T HAD LVLS HIGHER THAN 3 OH MY LORDD

-The bonfire, live sacrifices, and planned descent to cannibalism 🥰🥰

-Charlie joining other peoples vcs near the end and just BROKENLY checking in on them and telling them the plans of BOLAS???!?!?! and literally giving them the coords to their base LMAO

-Baghera killing Phil, Phil waving her goodbye before DEAD

-FOREVER SAYING THE WORDS THE BLACK CUCURUCHO GAVE HIM???? Not sure if anything came of that yet, but OHHH BOYYY

-BAD AND TUBBO??? TEAM UP??? BAD WITH THE AXE AND TUBBO WITH THE SWORD?? HOLY SHIT WHAT A COMBO

-MISSA PLAYING THE KIRBY STAR ALLIES MENU MUSIC WHEN WE DIPPED INTO HIS POV??? THAT SCARED ME LMAO DID NOT EXPECT IT

-The post-event wind down where everyone is chatting and vibing and talking to one another, that was a vibe and was really chill as everyone played tetris and watched each other's streams, and complimented Tina's tetris skills

Honestly, I'm sure there was so many fun moments despite everything, my streamers had fun despite the frustrations and discouragement

I am ecstatic where they may change about things going forward! I trust Q and the Admins to listen to the feedback from people and see how they can shift things to balance it out. We'll see!

Until then! Back on the bus we go!

Remember to stay clear of the pvp! You don't want to find yourself in the way of an axe or a sword swing!

hi omg, can you please write a Finn x Reader where they meet on the set of stranger things, it's kind of weird/awkward at first, they don't know why though (it's tension you idiots), but they gradually become closer, it's just a lot of fluff and mutual pining, maybe jealousy? idk, but, I'd love for you to write this, thank youuuu

ˏˋ 𝐇𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐋𝐘 𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 ˎˊ˗ | starring finn wolfhard

I was way too excited for this request oh. my. god.

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵

~fluff!~ [𝖜𝖆𝖗𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖘:] n/a

︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵

Finn's POV

She's only going to be here for the next couple days at the most. It's usually pretty frowned upon for actors to have a thing for their co-stars, though of course it tends to happen quite frequently, especially if you work together for years on a show as a love interests.

But the thing is, [Name] isn't my co-star. I don't even have any scenes with her. She's just here as an extra, she'll be gone by next week. And yet... I can't stop thinking about her. I've had to pretend to be in love, infatuated, obsessed, countless times. But to actually feel it is a totally different feeling. My heart keeps slamming against my ribcage so often that there's points I'm actually scared it might break one or something. I'm no doctor, so I'm not entirely sure that's even possible, but whatever.

Pulling me from my thoughts is the voice of one of the producers. Apparently, I've accidently messed up another scene. And even worse yet, she's caught me staring and is staring back, directly into my eyes. My cheeks burn against my face and the tingle of embarrassment rushes over my body. I feel so incredibly foolish.

I can't tell if it's just my lover's eye or if what I see is true, but I think she might be blushing too.

[Name]'s POV

I have a monstrously bad habit of zoning out a lot. It's almost gotten me ran over a couple of times before. Being an extra for Stranger Things sounds like one of my daydreams, not real life. And yet, here I am, on the set of Stranger Things 4. I zoned out again, and the thing that pulls me out of it is a producer calling out for Finn, telling him to focus. When I look up, he's staring directly at me and I feel my face get hot.

Was he staring at me? Without really thinking about it, I bring my hand up to my face and feel around, maybe trying to catch something off it. Surely that's why he's looking at me. Because I have something on it and he's too embarrassed to tell me. I give him a slight smile before I go to change back into my own clothes. My part is done for the day, it's my cue to go home.

Since I'm not apart of the main cast, I don't have a changing room or a trailer so I just have to find a bathroom to change in. After I've collected the plastic bag containing my clothes, I side step to head to the bathroom when a hand (rather uncoordinatedly) blocks my path.

Finn stands there, one hand awkwardly scratching the back of his neck, the other stretched awkwardly over the doorway.

"Hey-! [Name]-! I, uh. I didn't see you there."

Finn's POV

Right after the words leave my mouth, I immediately want to smack them back in.

Didn't see you there? You're right in front of her, it's obvious you're lying.

A nervous sound, half laugh, half cough, falls from my lips. Oh fuck, this is going terrible.

I plaster an awkward smile on my face. "Hi."

[Name] is giving me a look like she's not entirely sure what's happening, and I can't really blame her. I don't fucking know either. I just wanted to ask her to hang out, now I'm blocking her path and being creepily weird about it. You'd think it would be easier to be smooth with women when you have a whole fanbase of girls after you, but that's not entirely true.

I have about as much charm as a raw piece of cabbage.

"Heyyy.." she says, somewhat awkwardly, drawing out the last syllable of the word.

I clear my throat. I can't keep stalling and if I just let her pass now without going through with it, I would look even weirder. But her eyes-- those damn eyes-- are burning into mine. With every blink, the words escape and run even farther and farther away.

[Name]'s POV

In reality, I think only three seconds or so has passed. But with his dark eyes pinned to mine, it feels like it's been an eternity and a half. My body feels like it's been nailed in place. His eyes are holding me captive like an invisible pair of shackles. I can't move from my place and his gaze is telling me I don't want to. The air feels heavy with some unspoken tension. I can't tell if it's an awkward kind of tension or something else. After another beat or two, Finn's throat clears and breaks the silence. "Hey listen, I was kicking around the idea of us.. maybe.. uh.. you know, hanging out? Or something? Maybe?"

"Oh um.. Yeah, yeah sure. Sounds good, sounds good.. I uh. Should really get dressed and get home, though. I could just like give you my number or something?" I can't help but think about how fucking awful that sounds. I don't let myself dwell on that for too long, though, and before I can blink, he's typing his number into my phone and I'm watching it happen, feeling dazed and dreamy-eyed.

[A Note From Zee]

Hey there! Sorry this took so long. Since this is a lot longer than I originally thought it was going to be, I'll have to publish it in multiple parts, if anyone is interested in that. I've got two other requests to put out before then, though. Uhhh anyways, feel free to leave some feedback.

Just watched Vegetta’s pov on the spiderbit’s wedding and now I totally get what ya’ll are saying. Watching him look at Foolish so many times while the main ceremony made my heart melt. He wants to get married SO BAD. He’s just so scared. Please please please Vegetta, Foolish will NEVER leave you alone on the altar nor would he ever divorce you nor would he swindle you off your riches. He’s the most earnest and loyal guy ever Q^Q

Little tangent about my journey with the QSMP fandom <3

First, I'm going to preface this post by saying, I wouldn't have been interested in the server, been introduced to so many communities, languages, and cultures, if not for the eggs and the admins. So, I initially gained interest when I saw a lot of people posting about Tallulah and.... Misclick duo (lmao) so I decided to check out what everybody was talking about mid-April 2023.

I watched Philza's April 29 VOD- "last" day of the eggs. Absolutely loved Chayanne and Phil planting potatoes because of Phil telling stories about Techno. Cried like a baby after. So now I'm invested.

I downloaded Twitch the next day, in time for the Brazilians' arrival. My main pov continued to be Philza, so I was a Crow for quite a while, mostly into the summer. I started watching Cellbit when the mystery really started to ramp up by the end of May.

Then Bobby died and everyone's reactions made me sob for like, a week.

Summer was probably the most time I've had fun watching QSMP. I don't know why, but it was such a good era, despite the discourse about elections lmao. I began to gravitate more towards watching Foolish's pov and when Jaiden began streaming every day, I had her as my main pov as well. Shoutout to the doozers and Jaiden mains <33

Then, Tina and Bagi arrived and I began religiously watching them as well for, uh. Reasons 🏳️‍🌈 XD. Got invested in Bagi's lore and then everybody became really busy during October so Bad and Bagi were pretty much the only ones consistently on the server XD.

Then, and only then, did I hear little whispers about q!Badboyhalo's soul vultures and possible death? And I got really really interested then. And that's where the Ghostie era started lmao. Up to now, Bad is the only person I'd watch consistently and keep up to date on his lore because well, after the soul vultures arc and especially Sweet Despair, you can't really go back to anything else after that you know?

Of course, without the QSMP, I don't think I would've discovered/re-discovered so many wonderful streamers like Fit, Tubbo, Étoiles, Mouse, or Baghera to name a few.

The past few weeks have probably been the shittiest and most anxiety-ridden weeks for me ever. But, I don't want all the negativity and anxiety to overshadow what was, for me, THE most special and unique fandom experience I've ever had. The QSMP is such a special project, there's no doubt about that. I want that to continue.

So, if this post can offer any sort of positivity and relieve some of the dread we've all been feeling, to any person from any community, that would mean so much to me already.

Send love to and the utmost kindness and care to any and all ex admins, and continue to show your support for the current admins too please. It will take a long time for this to be resolved, and it's terrifying I know, but all we can do is support each other and wait.

Remember to always take care of yourselves and no matter what happens, it always rains before you can see a rainbow right? So, in other words, things will become worse before they can get better. Idk what will happen with the QSMP, but know that life becomes better eventually. No matter the outcome, you'll be ok. We'll all be ok. <333

Edit: oh my god I just realized qsmp 1st anniversary isn't tomorrow. Today is the 20th djrjtbrbebd

There's still 2 days but um everything else I said is still true XDDDD

#qsmp #Everybody seems really down lately- for valid reasons of course #so I just wanted to share a little positivity on the tag for now #since QSMP's 1st anniversary is tomorrow #I want to talk a little bit about my QSMP journey #and I'm also inviting anybody else who sees this to share their journey as well- if you want to do so #sorry for the very long post guys #i just have alot of thougts i wanted to share #and hopefully shed some light among the discourse yk?#this sounds like a goodbye its not XD

I’ve been so busy today and wasn’t able to watch any qsmp. Can I get a brief summary of what happened? thank u

OKAY SO the main important things was, during the banquet/dinner/etc, chant anne and tallulah showed up. which was already weird in itself, bc phil told them both to stay away. it was made even weirder by the fact that their models didn’t have the usual cracks (the ones that appeared when they were given back when the brazilians arrived), but they were also acting super weird. chayanne was taking off his armor and punching phil, tallulah was constantly playing her maracas, her flute was off tune, she didn’t give cellbit a flower in return, etc etc. everyone could instantly tell something was wrong. phil went back to his base, and sure enough, chayanne and tallulah were in bed, just as he left them.

the tallulah and chayanne at the dinner? codes disguised as the eggs. the server crashed right as that was revealed for my pov, but i think it ended with gegg losing his last presidential life? etoiles and phil ended up defeating the codes in the end.

on another side of the server, foolish was finally given attention by the federation! he was instructed to arrest tazercraft, which he did, blaming them for mr. mustard’s disappearance (also the beef wellington at the dinner was apparently confirmed to be mr. mustard???) tazercraft’s stream ended with a bunch of codes that have been mostly deciphered (can be found a bit back on my blog) essentially hinting back to fuga impossível and saying that they’d escaped before, they’d do it again, with a date set for tomorrow.

foolish’s siding with the federation breaks his and bad’s relationship. foolish lied a FUCKTON to get away with that, and bad no longer trusts him.

meanwhile, richas, cellbit, and roier are off mystery solving. i admittedly missed the start of this, but they end up finding a bunch of clues and puzzles that lead somewhere???? not sure yet. i’m sure a few other things happened too (heard that maxo’s not doing so good) but that’s the gist of what i know!

#muse talk #anon #i admittedly. fell asleep for a bit #right after tazercraft’s arrest up until cellbit’s mystery solving trip #BUT that’s what i got from my povs + the dash!

Percy isn't a good character. He should have believed Harry and dumbldore in the 5th book but he was stupid. He knew them and should have trusted them.

*deep sigh*

Alright, let me break this down for you:

Percy had very few reasons to believe Harry & Dumbledore, but he had a lot of reasons not to believe them.

I’ll put this under the cut due to length.

Let's start with Harry, because this aspect is a little simpler to explain.

From Percy’s POV, he’s hasn’t spent nearly as much time with Harry as his siblings have. In the letter he writes to Ron in OOTP, he says:

I know that he can be unbalanced and, for all I know, violent.

The ‘for all I know’ comment shows that Percy even admits to not knowing Harry well enough to be sure.

And Harry is unbalanced - it’s not his fault, but it’s a fact. He consistently breaks rules and is involved in everything bad that has happened to Percy’s younger siblings & friends up to that point (the beginning of OOTP).

In Book 1, Ron was injured when he went with Harry to stop Quirrell. In Book 2, the Chamber of Secrets was opened, Percy's girlfriend was petrified, and Harry was almost always near the scene of the crime. Harry spoke Parseltongue and appeared to encourage a snake to attack another student. Ginny was almost killed by a teenage version of Voldemort specifically because Tom was after Harry:

“Imagine how angry I was when the next time my diary was opened, it was Ginny who was writing to me, not you. She saw you with the diary, you see, and panicked. What if you found out how to work it, and I repeated all her secrets to you? What if, even worse, I told you who’d been strangling roosters? So the foolish little brat waited until your dormitory was deserted and stole it back. But I knew what I must do. It was clear to me that you were on the trail of Slytherin’s heir. From everything Ginny had told me about you, I knew you would go to any lengths to solve the mystery — particularly if one of your best friends was attacked. And Ginny had told me the whole school was buzzing because you could speak Parseltongue…

“So I made Ginny write her own farewell on the wall and come down here to wait. She struggled and cried and became very boring. But there isn’t much life left in her… She put too much into the diary, into me. Enough to let me leave its pages at last… I have been waiting for you to appear since we arrived here. I knew you’d come. I have many questions for you, Harry Potter.”

In Book 3, Sirius Black attacked the entrance to the Gryffindor Tower - where all of Percy’s younger siblings live - supposedly to get to Harry. Ron’s leg was injured because Sirius dragged him under the Whomping Willow in order to get Harry to follow him.

In Book 4, Cedric Diggory was killed while with Harry. I have always believed that Percy was friends with Cedric (see this post), but if nothing else, Percy knew Cedric because he was the Head Boy the year before, and Cedric was one of the prefects (therefore, one of Percy's responsibilities).

Again, this is not to say that any of this is Harry’s fault - I doubt even Percy would say that - but there is a direct correlation between proximity to Harry and danger, and Percy knows this.

However, even with that being said, it’s clear that the root of the problem was more about Dumbledore than Harry.

In fact, when retelling what happened during the argument, Ron said:

He said Dad was an idiot to run around with Dumbledore.

And in the letter Percy wrote to Ron, he said:

I am sorry that I was unable to see more of you over the summer. It pains me to criticize our parents, but I am afraid I can no longer live under their roof while they remain mixed up with the dangerous crowd around Dumbledore.

He’s making it clear that his family’s association with Dumbledore was the main reason for him leaving - not their association with Harry.

Percy likely believed that Dumbledore was manipulating Harry (which he frequently did throughout the series).

Even back in Book 1, Percy thought this about him:

Albus Dumbledore had gotten to his feet. He was beaming at the students, his arms opened wide, as if nothing could have pleased him more than to see them all there.

“Welcome,” he said. “Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!

“Thank you!”

He sat back down. Everybody clapped and cheered. Harry didn’t know whether to laugh or not.

“Is he — a bit mad?” he asked Percy uncertainly.

“Mad?” said Percy airily. “He’s a genius! Best wizard in the world! But he is a bit mad, yes. Potatoes, Harry?”

Dumbledore is regarded as the “best wizard” in the world - the most powerful and intelligent wizard of his time - and yet many people also comment on the fact that Dumbledore is a bit mental (there are quotes by Fred and Ron about this too).

And Percy’s not wrong to doubt Dumbledore. Dumbledore was a horrible Headmaster - that's just a fact.

In fact, up through Book 4, we see very little evidence of Dumbledore being a great wizard, but we do see evidence of him putting students in danger and making far too many mistakes/bad decisions.

In Book 1, he brought an item inside Hogwarts that he knew was being pursued by Voldemort, which put all the students at risk, and he either had no idea that Voldemort was living inside one of his professors or... he didn’t care? Look at this - frankly, horrifying - conversation from the book:

“Well, I got back all right,” said Hermione. “I brought Ron round — that took a while — and we were dashing up to the owlery to contact Dumbledore when we met him in the entrance hall — he already knew — he just said, ‘Harry’s gone after him, hasn’t he?’ and hurtled off to the third floor.”

“D’you think he meant you to do it?” said Ron. “Sending you your father’s cloak and everything?”

“Well, ” Hermione exploded, “if he did — I mean to say that’s terrible — you could have been killed.”

“No, it isn’t,” said Harry thoughtfully. “He’s a funny man, Dumbledore. I think he sort of wanted to give me a chance. I think he knows more or less everything that goes on here, you know. I reckon he had a pretty good idea we were going to try, and instead of stopping us, he just taught us enough to help. I don’t think it was an accident he let me find out how the mirror worked. It’s almost like he thought I had the right to face Voldemort if I could…”

“Yeah, Dumbledore’s off his rocker, all right,” said Ron proudly.

I’m sorry - what?! Dumbledore thought a child had the right to face Voldemort, and even pushed Harry in that direction, instead of facing Voldemort himself? I just have no words for how awful that is.

In Book 2, the Chamber of Secrets was opened, students were being petrified - in danger of being killed - and Dumbledore didn't bother to shut down the school (it wasn’t until Ginny was taken into the Chamber that McGonagall said they were sending students home). Moaning Myrtle literally died the last time the Chamber was open, but Dumbledore just allowed the students to stay and keep going to classes, because...?

There’s also this:

“What does this mean, Albus?” Professor McGonagall asked urgently.

“It means,” said Dumbledore, “that the Chamber of Secrets is indeed open again.”

Madam Pomfrey clapped a hand to her mouth. Professor McGonagall stared at Dumbledore.

“But, Albus… surely… who?”

“The question is not who,” said Dumbledore, his eyes on Colin. “The question is, how…” And from what Harry could see of Professor McGonagall’s shadowy face, she didn’t understand this any better than he did.

‘The question is not who’ - In other words, Dumbledore knew exactly who opened the Chamber, and therefore, knew that Voldemort had access to the campus, yet he didn’t figure out that Ginny was being possessed. Ultimately, a 12-year-old is the one that had to journey into the Chamber of Secrets, fight a form of Voldemort and a Basilisk, and save Ginny.

Yeah, I’m not seeing anything overly impressive about Albus here.

In Book 3, we also get a scene that makes me livid.

Professor Dumbledore sent all the Gryffindors back to the Great Hall, where they were joined ten minutes later by the students from Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin, who all looked extremely confused.

“The teachers and I need to conduct a thorough search of the castle,” Professor Dumbledore told them as Professors McGonagall and Flitwick closed all doors into the hall. “I’m afraid that, for your own safety, you will have to spend the night here. I want the prefects to stand guard over the entrances to the hall and I am leaving the Head Boy and Girl in charge.”

As a child reading this, I didn't think much of it. As an adult, it disgusts me. I get that the teachers wanted to search the school for Sirius, but are you honestly telling me that none of them could stay behind to watch the kids? Instead, you put children in charge of protecting each other? Even if you make the argument that Percy was 17 (and therefore, an adult by wizarding standards), he was still a student, and the other prefects that were told to guard the entrances included 5th and 6th year students who were definitely not adults.

This is basically like a gunman being loose on a high school campus, and the principal saying, “Okay, anyone on the safety patrol is going to guard the doors while all the teachers leave. Good luck.” NO. Just no. You don't do that. Even if Dumbledore didn’t think Sirius was dangerous (which we have no proof of, especially since Dumbledore admitted later that Sirius wasn’t acting like an innocent man), it would still have been a horrible choice.

And during that same year, he hired a werewolf for a professor. Yes, we all know that Remus is a great guy; however, he forgot to take his Wolfsbane Potion, turned into a werewolf, and almost killed students before the end of the year.

Harry could see Lupin’s silhouette. He had gone rigid. Then his limbs began to shake.

“Oh, my —” Hermione gasped. “He didn’t take his potion tonight! He’s not safe!”

“Run,” Black whispered. “Run. Now.”

But Harry couldn’t run. Ron was chained to Pettigrew and Lupin. He leapt forward but Black caught him around the chest and threw him back.

“Leave it to me — RUN!”

There was a terrible snarling noise. Lupin’s head was lengthening. So was his body. His shoulders were hunching. Hair was sprouting visibly on his face and hands, which were curling into clawed paws. Crookshanks’s hair was on end again; he was backing away — As the werewolf reared, snapping its long jaws, Sirius disappeared from Harry’s side. He had transformed. The enormous, bearlike dog bounded forward.

As the werewolf wrenched itself free of the manacle binding it, the dog seized it about the neck and pulled it backward, away from Ron and Pettigrew. They were locked, jaw to jaw, claws ripping at each other.

He was an unnecessary risk. Readers tend to ignore that because we love Remus, but just because we like someone and have sympathy for them does not mean they should be employed at a school.

In Book 4, Dumbledore failed to notice that his friend - "Moody was a great wizard in his time," said Bill. "He's an old friend of Dumbledore's, isn't he?" said Charlie. - was actually Barty Crouch Jr. using the Polyjuice Potion. Even if you argue that he didn't know Barty Jr. was alive, this powerful and intelligent wizard couldn't tell that his old friend wasn't himself? Seriously?

It’s not like there weren’t any signs - ‘Moody’ turning Draco into a ferret and demonstrating the Unforgivable Curses in class being some of them. At the very least, those acts should have warranted a meeting where Dumbledore spoke with him. If he spent a good deal of time with Moody one-on-one, he should have picked up on the inconsistencies in his personality, since no one can perfectly copy another person for an indefinite amount of time, but he either didn’t spend much time with him or didn’t figure it out. Either way, that’s not overly impressive either.

And Dumbledore allowed a 14-year-old kid to enter a tournament that purposely had an age limit of 17 and over because it was that dangerous. No, Dumbledore didn’t put Harry’s name in the Goblet, and yes, the Goblet was a "binding magical contract", but you're telling me the greatest wizard in the world couldn't figure out a way around that? I mean, an obvious loophole would be that 14-year-olds aren't legally allowed to sign contracts without parental/guardian permission, which Harry did not get from the Dursleys or Sirius, and therefore, the Goblet’s contract was null and void. Even without that, it’s pretty sketchy that Dumbledore couldn’t find any escape route for Harry.

And at the end of the year, one of the students died due to Dumbledore’s negligence in noticing that there was something amiss about one of his teachers.

I can't think of one reason why Percy would trust Dumbledore. I certainly wouldn't!

So Percy - likely grieving the death of a friend - was told to put blind faith into a man who had repeatedly failed his students & a traumatized kid who actually was being manipulated by Dumbledore (in other ways).

I don't know, anon; I think it's realistic that Percy wasn’t so willing to believe them.

And the fact that Percy was the only one in his family to really question the trustworthiness of a problematic, powerful wizard is one of my favorite things about him.

To Be or Not To Be?

"With heads showing Hermie's face, the thespian could pretend that those decisions were genuine, while the drama mask for tails could excuse their more obviously villainous behavior. Little did their new 'friends' know that they were both just acts. Thank the theatre gods for this perfect role."

Five times Two-Face is forced to follow his coin's decision, and one time Herman makes one of their own.

10.3k words, oakworthy, 5+1 things, hermie pov, pining, set during ep17-20

prologue | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | +1

also on ao3!

As The Main Characters plus Hermie all sit together in the Catbus on their way to The City, Herman expects to fade into the background again. Settle back into their role as a minor character, pretending that that's enough for them. They sit a seat by one of the windows, trying not to think of the anatomical logistics of the creature-machine-thing they were inside of, and mute their thoughts with the cozy rumbling of the Catbus' purrs.

They chose to sit on the right side, since that's the only side of their body they can press against the wall easily. But now that their scars are no longer being disguised, they feel far too exposed. But they have a feeling they won't be able to cover them up again for a while.

It's a unique kind of pain. It's not what they would've imagined burns to feel like. It itches more than it hurts. Their skin may be sensitive and withered, but it is the inside, just below the surface, that itches. It's a crawling sense of wrongness, a shifting feeling that has been vaguely familiar to Herman their whole life, but never to this level of intensity.

They want to scratch, peel, tear their own flesh, but since they can't, all they can do is ignore it. Pretend everything's alright. Allow themself to fade away...

"Hey, Herm, how are you feeling?"

Herman jumps in their seat. When did Normal start sitting next to them? The rude reminder of their own existence causes all the discomfort of being in their body to come washing back over them. But of course, they will say nothing about it. Hermie doesn't complain.

"I just, I feel really bad about leaving you behind like that," Normal apologizes, as if this was all his fault and had nothing to do with his foolish friends. "Y'know, just— I wanna know what you've been going through. Like, I know you just kinda stayed in there and acted like Risky Click the whole time, but you were alone! That must've been... not great!"

He's doing that thing he does with his hands when he gets flustered. He's moving way too much for someone sitting in a bus seat. If they were on a regular school field trip, he'd get called out by a teacher for not sitting still. "Ah, jeez, I don't wanna make assumptions about your feelings though, and I don't want you to think I don't think you can handle that sorta situation, because I know you can, you're a very talented actor, I just wanna, y'know... understand you better!"

Herman blinks as they try to process... Normal. Just in general. Whether or not to actually open up is definitely a job for Two-Face.

He reaches for his pocket, and he catches in the corner of his eye the mascot kid's face falling, before the two of them are both jostled by the Catbus landing from a jump. Two-Face is violently pushed back from the wall and half his body ends up falling right into his mark's lap.

"Whoa! Hermie, are you—"

Herman scrambles back up into their seat as soon as they fall, before Normal could ask if they're okay. Before they could allow themself to really feel Normal's touch again. They have to numb themself out again.

"Hey, uh, I think the Catbus wants to stop here for tonight," The Jock calls from the front. "Sorry guys."

"Aw, c'mon, kitty, you can keep going!" The Nerd complains, patting a wall. "We're so close to The City! I wanna check it out!"

"Nah, we probably should... sleep a bit," The Goth mumbles. "My stupid stepdad can wait."

Normal's eyes dart between each of his friends, then Herman's pocket, then their face, then back to his friends. His usually wild hands are now retracted back closer to his body, and he's wringing them uncomfortably. He's sitting a couple inches further from Herman at this point. "Yeah, we do need a good ol' long rest, don't we?" His voice is more subdued now. He fakes a yawn, leaning away from Herman as he pretends to stretch. "I'm all, uh, pooped out from that pizza party. Ha." Such a sad attempt at a joke that even he can barely keep a smile on his face, simply returning back to that expression of utter self-consciousness and defeat.

He's standing up from his seat and awkwardly shuffling away to a seat somewhere else. Herman tunes out the rest of what he does after that. Sometimes keeping track of the mascot kid's every movement gets exhausting. They don't know why they still do it, even when the mascot costume isn't even on him.

They press back against the furry wall and feel the comforting purring again. They almost feel at peace like this. As long as they don't think about lying in Normal's lap for that split second.

They could've easily stayed there if they wanted. The idiot most likely wouldn't have done anything to stop them from just lying there. He might've done something while they were there, though. Those anxious hands might've patted their head, or stroked their hair, instead of twisting together in an awkward attempt at self-soothing.

Sometimes Herman wonders what Normal would do if they just handed themself to him.

Two-Face forces himself up from his seat. He will have no more of this nonsense. Herman cannot be left alone with their thoughts. He sweeps an angry gaze over the inside of the Catbus, noticing where each of The Main Characters are choosing to sleep.

The Goth, The Nerd and The Jock are all in the same row together, overlapping each other's seats. Although they're all slumped over each other and twisted in odd positions, they appear strangely comfortable. Two-Face doesn't understand how they're able to touch each other so easily. It's not like he has no experience with touch, it's just that pretty much all that he has received until this journey has been from characters onstage. And he's sure that because of his new scars, no one is going to ever want to touch him again. Not that anyone ever did before.

He twitches with a feeling he refuses to acknowledge as envy.

The mascot kid, apparently, is sleeping alone. He's curled up in the back left corner of the Catbus. Full-on fetal position, holding himself tight and facing the wall so Two-Face can't see his face. It's an odd sight. A pathetic one. This isn't how he usually sleeps. He likes to sleep on his stomach, limbs splayed out, usually lying with his face buried in something soft like bunches of pillows or a friend's chest. Right now, he just looks so small, so lonely.

Two-Face takes a step to get a closer inspection, but stops himself as he remembers who he is. Hermie would be the one to go and comfort him, but Two-Face doesn't care and knows to just leave him be to have his little moment. But Hermie would feel guilty for making him suddenly get like this and would want to make things better. But Two-Face wouldn't want to risk being asked about his honest feelings again.

God, why does this stupid character keep making him have to decide things? It's exhausting. He reaches back into his pocket, though his mind keeps reflecting back on the image of his mark's face dropping. Why did he look at him like that?

It doesn't matter. He's not allowed to think about that idiot anymore unless the coin shows Hermie's face.

He flips his coin. Tails.

Two-Face's heart drops like the Catbus' landing earlier. He looks back up at the mascot kid in his pathetic little ball. Stares for a bit too long, actually, but then his mark begins to stir for a second and Two-Face is promptly swiveling around to go back to his seat.

He hopes that Normal didn't turn around to see him as he snuggles back up against the wall as quietly as he can. He hopes that Normal will just go to sleep easily and move on in the morning.

Herman hopes the same for themself, to no avail.

with all the 'subtle' posts you make about him, just say you hate bbh and be on your way.

what's the point in continuing to interact with a creator and their fanbase when you don't like either, seems like a lot of wasted energy

Dude you can just block me? I’m not going to cry about it. But this is my blog and I’m going to talk about the things I want to and I like talking about ‘discourse’ type things, especially if it pertains to my main povs. Also you can't just scream cc hate because of one or two discourse/neg posts..

But looking at my “subtle” posts about him, I can for sure tell you that they aren't subtle because almost all of them include the tag "bbh neg" or say his name directly. If we're talking about my most recent post, the tags clearly say no names were included due to the bias everyone holds. But still said it was about him in the tags. Since the discussion would have 100% been different if it was another egg and Bad wasn't trying to be petty to the parent.

If we wanna talk about my actual personal feelings towards Bad, then yes I no longer support him and am neutral towards him after dream’s allegations video and his expression of support. But I have made criticism posts towards him before and after that when I did watch him and in no way do I let my opinion of him outside of qsmp enter those criticisms. I also do not seek out things to hate him over, simply discuss when it is relevant to my main povs.

Please like just do an ounce of research on who you’re sending asks to because all my recent neg post have been from things that happen or affected my main pov which is Foolish and Leo. So obviously I’m going to want to talk about them. But meh who cares 🤷

#asks #bbh neg #<- here for blocked tags #lowkey find it weird a supposed ghostie sent this when a majority of them dont admit or even research other povs… 🤷

Hello ! About the dreblr ask game : 13, 16 and/or 20 (yes your own counts)?

13. Since we rarely saw c!Dream's own pov, who was your main pov character/s?

Easy answer: Techno and whoever Dream was on… But I’ve also watched a fair amount of Quackity, Tommy, Foolish and Bad streams. And honestly, since I joined on pretty late, I didn’t really have a chance to really watch a lot of them live, but I try and watch a variety when I’m rewatching streams. Been watching Ranboo’s recently which has been interesting…

16. What's your favourite c!Dream headcanon?

Ok, I did answer this one here, but you know I’ll also say while I don’t adhere to him missing his left ring finger and having a scar through his eye. I love the idea of Quackity cutting it off because of his anger over his engagement mess and all three of the prison trio being scar brothers. ;) (oops 9 is specifically for appearance, lol XD my bad) Also I’m not sure if it’s a popular headcanon or not, but as an autistic person I really like the idea of c!Dream being autistic as well (the fact that cc!Dream mentioned it as possibility for himself, definitely says something).

20. What are some of your favourite pieces of c!Dream analysis?

Dang hard question. Well this one is maybe the first analysis I ever read (and umm well I relate to it a lot more then I should-not gonna lie this does add to my thoughts about him being autistic…). And if I’m talking about my own then I’ll say that I love this one about the torture box and I’m really proud of this one about the finale.

#thank you so very much for asking <3 #hope I did a good job answering :)#ask game #c!dream #dsmp #dreblr #shall we play a game?#hello there

A Small Secret...(DNF)

If you haven’t noticed I haven’t been writing too much on here, I’ve been writing a new AO3 story and that’s been my main priority another thing; I’m going to be on a hiatus for the month of February! <33 so no fics or updates for a month XP rip </3 OK Here is a DNF dating in secret fic!! Sapnap POV <3 (highly motivated by a fic on AO3 idk the name but i remember it a lot and i really liked it!! It was one of my fave works link for it will be in the comments <33 ) A BIT OF ANGST AND FLUFF :D

Sapnap had been travelling and living with Karl, Punz, and foolish for the past month to get away from George and Dream --Or at least that’s what he told them-- but in reality, he just wanted to get out of the house, Sapnap was had been on the road for 9 hours and all he wanted was to go to bed, cuddling with patches if he could.

It was mid-day and Sapnap had just reached the house, he opened the door to see George and Dream soundly in the arms of each other, Sapnap was slightly confused but he thought it might have been for a picture on Dream's Snapchat to prank the whole of their fanbase,

“Hi!” George sprung up, “Fuck off,” Sapnap groaned, sitting down on the couch, stroking patches, “How was your trip?” Dream giggled at George, who was smiling, “Good. It was better than living here, How was your alone time" Sapnap smiled at patches, who was purring,

"Our alone time was amazing," George laughed, making Dream blush, deeply, "Shut up you idiot!" Dream giggled, pushing George off of him, "It's true, though! You were like-" George was cut off by Dream's hand over his mouth "No! Shut up!" Dream laughed, making George blush,

"Ew..." Sapnap mentally gagged at the two, "I'm leaving before I die," Sapnap got his stuff and went to him, "Come on patchy!" Sapnap kissed patches forehead, "NO! PATCHES!" George screamed as if he was losing his life, "Patches, come on!" Sapnap smiled, indicating her to his room, "No! Don't! Come here!" George got up and started petting patches, persuading her to choose him, "Ok, fuck you! You can't do that!" Sapnap groaned, rolling his eyes and going to his room, slightly sad he could have patches

Sapnap flopped onto his bed, so inevitably tired of the trip, wait... Sapnap thought, getting up and peering from the door crack, seeing George kiss Dream on his jaw but they weren't posing like it was a picture, they were just...There? Are they...Dating? Sapnap was slightly shocked,

"How we'll we tell him?" Dream said slightly concerned, "He'll figure it out, no?" "I don't know, George...We always act like this, it'll be hard for him to know," Dream stared at George's hands which were intertwined with his, "Can we wait a bit?" George closed his eyes, "Of course, take your time..." Dream kissed George's knuckles,

oh my god...

Sapnap slammed his door, They are so whipped! Sapnap couldn't help but giggle at the thought of what the two bad probably done while he was gone, I gotta tell Karl! Sapnap pulled out his phone, calling Karl,

"Karl!" "Hi," "George and Dream are dating!" Sapnap whispered, "Huh?" Karl laughed, "They're dating!" Sapnap whisper-yelled this time, "How do you know?" Karl said with skepticism, "They were flirting and acting like- well- A couple and I went to close my door and I heard them say, 'how should we tell him?' They. Are. Dating!" Sapnap exclaimed, "You should ask before you make an assumption," Karl said in a nerdy tone, "Ok, Karl..." Sapnap said back, also in a nerdy tone, hanging up without a 'bye'

TIME SPEED TO NIGHT TIME >:D(I'm lazy asf and I'm speedrunning this bitch !!!)

Sapnap joined George and Dream, still watching all their moves to spot anything that would tell him in the slightest they were together, but the only thing he noticed is that fact they were practically conjoined at the hip due to the fact, they wouldn't leave each other.

The three stayed up for the night to watch movies, but most of the time George and Dream bickered about the characters and made sapnap bored and go on his phone,

"No, no, no! That's wrong!" Dream rolled his eyes, "Yes! Dream- i watched this movie more than you have! I know this," George explained, "Well, you watched more than me because you weren't paying attention the first time so you watched it again!" Sapnap was slightly irritated at the two, "It's fucking Madagascar 2? Why the fuck are you arguing so much?!" Sapnap hushed their bickering,

George and Dream laughed, "Sorry," George covered his eyes, flushed, "I'm going to sleep," Dream got up, looking at George but when he didn't see his eyes he tapes his shoulder, "Coming?" Dream looked like a lost puppy, "Oh, no. I'm not too tired," George pulled out his phone, "mhm," Dream walked to his room, this was Sapnaps opportunity.

"George?" Sapnap whispered, "What? Why are you whispering?" George raised an eyebrow, "Ignore that, but seriously...Are you and Dream dating?" George blushed madly, ignoring eye contact, "uhm, no? Why? We aren't like that-" George covered his face with his hands, laughing, "Hm..." Sapnap knew that he was lying

A couple minutes later, Georges's phone buzzed, "Who is it?" Sapnap asked, "oh, it's just Dream," George blushed, "Didn't he go to sleep?" Sapnap questioned, "he said he wanted me to come to his room for...Something," George giggled when saying the word, 'something' making Sapnap more suspicious, "for what?" Sapnap asked, "Uhm...OK, fine, Don't tell dream that I'm telling you this...Come here!" Sapnap got closer to George, "Ok... We're dating! We have been for like 2 weeks," George admitted, Sapnap smiled as if he won a medal.

Dream then came out of his room, "Hi," George said flushed, "Hi, I need to come to my room, for a second," Dream said, blushing, "For what?" Sapnap intervened, "I-" Dream tried explaining but his words go caught on his tongue,

"I know you're dating George, what else are you hiding?" Sapnaps tone was accidentally firm, "You're own boyfriend told me, why'd you hide it?" Dream was shaking, slightly, "Oh my god! Dream are you ok? Here, come sit, I'm sorry! I told him because...I didn't want to hide for too long, I hope you understand," George craddled Dream, as Dream slightly smiled, "Oh no, George! Its fine, I'm fine, I was ready, but you told me you weren't?" Dream kissed George on the forehead, "I just didn't want to have secrets," George reassured Dream,

"I'm sorry," Sapnap felt horrible about the tone he used with Dream and George, they had just come out and he was slightly pissed they didn't say things early but that wasn't how he meant to react, "Its ok, we should have told you early! We didn't want to ruin your trip!" Dream explained, holding Sapnaps hand, "No, its fine...It would have been nice and it wouldn't ruin my trip," Dream and Sapnap hugged, giggling at the thoughts.

"George?" Sapnap looked up, George was playing with Patches, "hm? oh yeah, patches knew before you knew," George cooed, "Ok, yeah, you tell her everything!" Dream added, "Yeah, because she won't expose me! Isn't that right, patchington?" George smiled, "If she was human, she was would tell everyone your secrets," Sapnap joined George, "Ok- who do we tell next?" Dream asked,

"your mom?" George joked, "She knows, well she known," George narrowed his eyebrows, "When did you tell her?" Georges frim tone made Dream giggle, "No- Dream, when did you tell her?" George scooted closer to Dream, "I told her on our second date, she asked me where we were going and I told her, she got you flowers but I kinda lost them..." Sapnap laughed, "How the fuck do you lose FLOWERS?" Sapnpa said genuinally confused, "I put them on the dining table and then later they were gone," Dream tried recalling his thoughts,

"Here, tell everyone while I try and find the flowers," George suggested but Dream hold onto his sweater, "I want you to do it with me, I can't just do it alone," Dreams puppy eyes almost swayed George into staying with him, "You can do it alone, just speak on both of our behalf," George kissed Dream, "gross." Sapnap muttered under his breath, staring at his phone,

"Ok, I'll be back," George smiled, dream tried to give George the slight treatment but he couldn't help but crack a small smirk, "Bye," George waited for the two to wave back but only Sapnap did, "Dream?" George said raising an eyebrow, "Dream, are you going to say bye to George so he can fuck off," Sapnap reminded Dream just in case he had forgotten, "I'm not talking to him," Dream blandly responded, h

George jumped a little, but walked off like nothing, "No, George, come back," Dream got up and went upstairs with George, fucking idiots, Sapnap thought of what they were going to do upstairs.

TIME SPEED

Sapnap was in his room, just waking up from a nap, he picked up his phone and got an amazing surprise, "Dnf is real!" Dream tweeted, then a picture of Dream kissing George on the cheek, Then George posted but this time on Instagram, "DNF (Dream n' friends)" The caption wrote and George posted a string of pictures seemingly from the dates they've been on, Sapnap commented on only Dreams knowing it would get more clout, "I'm moving in with Karl..."

THE ENDDDDD!! :D :D :D :D :D :D <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

okay i'd expect nothing less from you the c!dream design game of that animation has Insane, it's both very aesthetically apealing and undeniably threatening, i loved the death note scene where it flicks through the different designs, it's such a cool effect

dude that final shot was great, this has got to be my favourite cdream centric animatic because it perfectly straddles the line between 'this is a guy' and 'what is this guy doing /concerned, /intimidated'. and while i am not a large cdrunz fan myself (95% because of the name lol) even i can admit that that scene was Cute. poor guy overworked himself playing server-sized 5D-chess jenga

honorary mention to the scene where tommy knee slides towards his chest because it looks both very funny and very cool. i didn't even notice dream's reflection in the discs at first but it's such a neat detail this fandom is one of a kind, we have actual 3D animators making little music videos for our minecraft roleplay. how crazy is that

and oh god. lnv finale stream predictions. my instinctive reaction to it was *worried screaming* but realistically i'd say we can expect a wonderfully crafted story, great dialogue and Big cinema. okay but there are two things that are certain, death, taxes and a major cdream appearance in the las nevadas finale. if cq doesn't end up losing atleast one life and or sitting shell shocked in the smoldering ruins of his city im going to riot. or rather. im not enough of a cq or ccq main to gauge what kind of ending he wants for the story. i'm also crossing my fingers for a fiances conversation which more likely due to sapnaps connection to dream, wedding? very unlikely. i don't think we're going to see charlie again. i have so many ideas on how the whole dream foolish situation is might play out. i don't think we'll have a purpled 2.0 situation, listen 'any predictions for the las nevadas finale' is a very complex question. to be honest i am mainly shaking with excitement because it's going to be Cool

Yeah that's exactly it it's still like a tall lanky dude with long hair and I would say he does look just pretty on certain shorts but it's still threatening and sharp if you will that it's still concerning whatever this random guy is doing should scare you

All the shots and effects on this thing were so cool this fandom it's really so different from anywhere else I can't imagine ever getting into anything else that will have things like this happening more than once

Tbh I mostly call c!Dunz c!Staged Duo because it just sounds way cooler but c!Drunz still gets used for the more shippy sense I suppose so I will have to nevermind the fact that it sounds how it sounds

I really liked the contrast between this guy is playing 5D chess on his own against the world and somehow not totally losing and he's very intimidating and very dangerous and up to Something

And also just after slaving himself to his plan he too gets tired and he too is just a person who at the end if exhausted enough will just fall asleep anywhere and having c!Punz there to care for him was cute it endeared my heart

Same worried screaming I'm a fool but I still want that wedding so bad it doesn't even have to be a big event anymore just want them to get married just want them to talk at all please please cc!Sapnap and cc!Karl let me have this

(On the other hand I think my want for the c!Fiances to be together has kinda shown me how from a c!Inniter pov c!Dreambur hurts because on one hand I want them together so bad on the other he would be seeing his brother marry his abuser and I would just wanna die immediately)

Ooohhh I would die for a c!Dream appearance a big c!Dream apparence I don't exactly want c!Dream to be the reason it all falls apart tho it would be cool I want it to be all from mistakes c!Quackity has made I want it to hurt I want it to reflect and he should lose a life just as a treat and if c!Dream can take it or be there while it gets taken all the better

C!Sam also totally 100% gotta be there he just gotta

I do believe there's going to be something about c!Slime but I don't really think the little bit between c!Foolish and c!Dream is really gonna come into play because I think cc!Quackity's is definitely the most scripted and that bit was entirely improved from what I remember and c!Foolish didn't really accept right away but I still think it would be really cool if they were involved somehow

At the end I just know cc!Quackity puts all his blood sweat and tears into his lore streams so it's going to be amazing regardless of how it is

my unpopular dsmp opinions, some of which genuinely should be popular

c!dream has crossed the moral event horizon and is irredeemable. once you cross that threshold, you're no longer a 'morally grey' character.

pre-recorded, heavily produced lore killed the lore. it was cool, sure, but you completely misunderstand the magic that the smp had when people watched it initially. the story is improv and that's how we like it. we can tell the cc's have lost interest in it, you can admit that to us, we'll understand, just stop lying to me.

c!dream's pov isn't necessary to understand his character or his motivations. if you've watched literally any c!primeboys stream he's basically spelled it out for you.

i don't understand how fans can dislike l'manberg or have claimed to be against it since the beginning. i honestly don't get it. what's so bad about wanting your own spot where you make your own rules and skirt accountability that has been used to technically oppress you before - and, before someone who never saw the earlier streams tries to disagree with this, the og l'manberg crew were imprisoned for shit that everyone else on the server was practically encouraged to do. also, what do you have against fun and happiness?

i think some of you forget that 'hybrids' aren't a thing, discounting c!ranboo. there's no piglin hybrids, c!techno is just a pig. there's no avian hybrids, c!phil is just a man with wings. there's no creeper hybrids, c!sam is just a creeper who's indecently exposed from the hips down. canonically there's no hybrids, and therefore no hybrid discrimination. people ran with that concept too much.

the loss and the fanon rewriting of the early lore up until pogtopia has ruined fandom perception of c!dream and the og l'manberg boys. c!tommy is more morally white than you think he is, and c!dream has always been a villain - he massacres and he kills and he destroys and he schemes and he always has broken his own rules. no wonder the boys wanted their own space after how they were treated.

i think ranboo oftentimes forgets his own lore. he brings stuff up that c!ranboo may have done, such as exploding the community house to frame c!tommy, holding onto Cat, and it goes absolutely nowhere. we've gotten all of these developments in his story but they have never been expanded on, and we're nowhere closer to figuring out his relationship to c!dream and what his other side is and honestly i see no hope that we'll be any closer to knowing even by the end of the year.

your characters don't all have to be morally grey for the story itself to be morally grey. this is fiction - some people can be nothing but evil and others can be nothing but good. being purely good or evil doesn't mean that you're one dimensional, either.

c!dream apologists have ruined c!dream for me. he's not a good person. how about you let me enjoy a villain for who he actually is, rather for than your percieved woobified ragdoll you pass off as c!dream.

the story was better when there was a central writer. it was brilliant back when wilbur wrote it to be that the environment drives the characters and the story, and it was really good in early s2 up until techno's execution day when it was more character driven. since then, the amount of autonomy people have over their characters without any central 'director', as it were, has been a detriment to the story overall. there needs to still be one overarching figure or director or writer.

not everyone is a main character. just because they have a pov, doesn't mean they're a main character. some characters have such little impact on the overall plot and describing everyone as a main character oversaturates the story and makes some characters seem more important than they are.

the egg lore had so much potential up until it didn't. all that built up threat that we were expecting and we still don't even know what the egg wants really other than just controlling people. does it hatch?

genuinely, if there's no major plot developments by the end of the year (and let's be honest, it's a very big possibility at this point), a few of the more prominent members of the server should do a podcast style stream talking about where the story would have gone, because at least then we would have gotten somewhat closer to a conclusion.

c!techno is a villain and an asshole and a bad person. he stops caring for people once their interests don't align with his or if they look at him funny. he makes meta-jokes about his own tyrannical and oppressive nature. stop taking that away from him. he's a bad person. cc!techno does a fabulous job portraying that in a comedic manner and the balancing of him being a deeply flawed person with deeply flawed morals and ideas with his comedically-portrayed stubbornness and lack of willingness to hear out opposing viewpoints is incredible. i want to like characters who are arseholes for the sake of being arseholes, and who refuse to take into account the hurt they've caused either out of self-righteousness or because they don't care, so let me. he's the anti-peacemaker, LET ME HIM ENJOY HIM FOR THAT!!!!

i think tommy and wilbur's way of doing lore is my favourite. relies heavily on improv, voice acting, sprite acting and facial expressions. really shows off the acting props and they pull off the emotional moments well for the insanity of the creative medium.

i'm not a fan of fan-music. i find songs about media i'm into difficult to listen to. coincidentally i'm also not a fan of shit like slam poetry or live music/musicals/pantomimes.

the death of l'manberg killed people's motivation to go on the server casually. i've talked about it more in depth before, but destroying what was a central, driving environment for the story killed momentum and motivation. imagine in an episode of she-ra, the princess alliance just nuke the freight zone and all of the members of the horde just have to deal with it. that would be shit.

until season 3 has some momentum, i'm counting the end of the smp as january 20th. that had a conclusion. season 3 has... whores, technoblade and tommyinnit. that's about it.

i wasn't a fan of the development of c!tubbo joining las nevadas. i preferred snowchester and the walled city conflict. give c!tubbo some backbone and some badassery. also tubbo where's the fucking nuke bro if you're shelving that plotline just tell us on like an alt stream what the plan was i beg

add like 2 or 3 new people to the server so that michael mcchill has someone to talk to and so that there's something always happening on the server. it gives the og's more motivation to return if things are happening in and out of canon and it'll help with momentum, and who knows? maybe they can write their own story/stories.

i really think that c!sam is an underrated character. he's multilayered, extremely interesting, and the dichotomy of his loyalty to his job and how far down the rabbithole that's taken him versus the genuine love he has for his friends that drives him to do what he does out of wanting to do right by them is brilliant. i don't talk about c!sam enough.

STOP HAVING FUCKING VILLAIN ARCS!!! I'M FUCKIN SICK OF IT!!!! i want to see more characters who see everyone else being absolute selfish, abhorrent cunts and go 'if nobody else is going to be a good person, i fucking will'. GIVE ME SOME MORAL WHITENESS!!! IT'S INTERESTING AND MORALLY GOOD CHARACTERS ARE FUN!!!

let tommyinnit build cobblestone towers. everyone bullied him too much for how ugly they were and the one he built outside of the prison looked genuinely really nice. it gives the boy something to do.

i'm a fan of the revive book and the canon lives system. don't ask me why, but i think it might just be the morbidity of it. it adds to c!dream's god complex persona, and i think the fragility of death itself is a really fun concept. not enough fan cc's have made connections with that and c!mumza, and it could make for cool fanfic.

ranboo your house is fucking ugly. it's an eyesore

c!niki, and to some extent now c!jack and c!fundy, are boring me and ruining my mood. i think c!jack is the closest to being an actually interesting sympathetic villain, mainly because nobody else seems to realise that c!niki is a villain. not a good one imo, but she's a villain. c!jack just has the problem of starting a new project over and over and over and over again and because of the slow in momentum for the primary cast, there hasn't been a lot of recent development for him.

not really a dream smp opinion, but if philza went full geordie accent, i would love it. i want him to, in canon, say shit like 'me n ye' instead of 'me and you' and use geordie dialect. i want him to be physically unintelligible because it's funny.

i don't really know what's up with c!foolish but i think he's a dumbass. he had a while to think about c!q's proposal and then changed his mind about joining the guy to admitted to letting him die just because. moron

i wish there was more c!eret lore. i wish he was an actual king with an actual kingdom and actual subjects and royal advisors. c!eret is far too fucking cool to be the king of nothing and nobody. fatten up the kingdom and the castle with people who work with c!eret, and don't just make it tyrannical and dictator-y to prove the point of the server's 'anarchists'. make it a healthy working environment, please - if you want moral greyness, have 'anarchists' who claim to care about the welfare of the server oppose a kingdom of happy people under a fair and just ruler because their ideologies clash.

the server needs more characters who oppose anarchy in more peaceful ways, or passively wish for systems to be a part of. i think a chaos vs order conflict ending only in mutual understanding where everyone understands that they should just leave each other alone would slot nicely into the story that's been created so far.

you need to have watched all of the previous arcs to understand the story. i've seen people argue that they don't need to know about earlier lore to understand the prison, but that's the equivalent of only watching the final season of pretty little liars and expecting to understand the context of what's going on.

some characters aren't that morally grey. some characters, take c!tommy for example, are definitely on the whiter side for the morality scale, he's just an asshole. he's abrasive and rude and a dickhead but he also doesn't agree with terrorism, he's patriotic, he strives for a better world, he's apologetic, but he's also a fucking BITCH.

you can add onto this if you want, but not if you're a c!dream apologist. nobody likes your opinions
