𝓛𝓲𝓰𝓱𝓽𝓼, 𝓒𝓪𝓶𝓮𝓻𝓪…𝓐𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷?—modern mizu
✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧
Hey dears!
I know I said I'll start working on requests...but the urge to write smut hit me so hard. Hope that's fine with you <3
The idea has been on my mind for a while now so I hope I'll be able to write it well. A part two idea is already on the way but I'd like to get this out my system first.
Just a disclaimer that all the usernames I have mentioned here are purely made up. Any similarities are coincidental.
Hope you enjoy! Mwa mwa :*
warning: not proofread, smut (mdni), livestreaming, voyeurism, she/her for mizu, implied afab reader
The soft sounds of raindrops pitter-pattering against the roof echoed throughout Mizu's apartment as it continued to rain. Luckily for her, it was her day off from work and she was able to spend her first moments smoking in the hallway.
A gloomy yet peaceful aura emanated from the plain gray walls. And yet here she was, crouching in front of her door, smoking while scrolling through her phone with a bored look on her face.
It wasn't long until soft footsteps could be heard from the other end of the hallway, making her look up.
"G'morning, neighbor!" you greeted cheerfully, approaching her with a smile. In your arms was a cardboard box which was taped shut, presumably some decorations you bought for your office yet again. "Enjoying your day off?
She stood up and dropped her half-lit cigarette on the tiled floor, stepping on it as she approached you. "You could say that," she replied nonchalantly yet taking the box off of your hands, walking with you towards your unit which was just across hers.
You were her first friend in this gloomy apartment complex.
The moment she moved in, she thought she'd be living the same old boring life with neighbors who probably wouldn't give a shit if a murder happened across the hall. And that was fine by her, she didn't give a shit anyway.
That was until she met you.
Your sunshine, sweet attitude somehow made its place into her heart. The way you always greeted her when you saw each other, the way you brought extra food over when you "accidentally" cooked too much, the way you invited her over for movie nights and to catch her up on the latest work gossip made her warm up to you eventually.
Now, she always looked forward to seeing you come home from work or run some errands. She even memorized your schedule and always spent her day-off mornings smoking in front of her door just so you can greet her.
Somewhere along the way, she realized she was slowly developing a crush on you. It started with her heart beating a bit faster and louder whenever you smiled at her until she was fully imagining you naked, panting underneath her.
And yet, she pushed these feelings aside.
You were too pure for her. How could she ever taint someone as precious as you? Her hands were dirty, perverted, and craved to feel the warmth of your sopping cunt as she thrusted them in and out. There was no way she could ever ask you out.
As the two of you finally reached the door to your unit, you opened the door with your keys and pushed it aside to allow Mizu inside. She set down the box on the coffee table in the middle of the living room and looked around.
"Thanks a lot, Mizu. I ordered more decorations for my office but I think I might have gone overboard," you said sheepishly, giving her a slightly embarrassed smile.
A small smile tugged the corners of her lips upwards ever so slightly. She knew you loved decorating your office but she never actually saw it. Every time she stumbled upon the door leading towards it, it was always locked shut. 'I just don't want anyone running through my documents,' she remembered you saying and she respected that.
It was kinda cute to think about how eager you always were to redecorate your office though.
She nodded in acknowledgement and was about to leave when you handed her a pack of matcha flavored chocolates. "I saw these on the way home and I thought you'd like them," you said sweetly. You even thought of her on the way back home?
Fuck, you were so damn cute.
"You really didn't have to. I—" You cut her off by shaking your head and gently pushing her towards the exit. "It's rude not to accept a gift, no?" you giggled. "So take it. Tell me if you liked it, okay?"
Mizu couldn't help but chuckle, accepting the gift. The faintest blush dusted her cheeks. Her heart was racing so damn much and if she wasn't trying so hard to restrain herself, she might've asked you to marry her already. "Alright, alright. Lock your doors and keep safe. I'll ring the doorbell if I come back," she replied, patting your head. "Oh please, you already know where I hide my keys. Just come in!" you laughed as she exited.
Once she heard your door close and the locks click, she let out an exhale she didn't even realize she was holding. Her heartbeat was echoing so damn loud in her chest and her mind couldn't stop thinking about how good you looked in your work outfit.
How your button-up was see-through enough for her to take a peek at the color of your bra. How it accentuated the curves of your breasts, making it hard for her to look away. How your skirt was so fucking tight it made her want to grip your hip dips and use it to pull you close to her. How it was short enough for it to ride up slightly when you walked but still long enough to not completely give her the satisfaction of seeing what was underneath. It was like you were teasing her, and it was making her so goddamn wet.
She went back into her own unit and locked the door. Her hands immediately took her phone out of her pocket as she walked back to her bedroom. The bed squeaked slightly upon her laying down on it, blue eyes glued to the screen and tossing the chocolates you gave her on the nightstand.
Of course, like any other woman, she had her sexual needs too. However, the way she handled it was quite peculiar.
Her screen lit up as the stream she had turned on was now live. A woman wearing a face mask sitting down on her computer chair, waving at the camera, eyes squinting with a eye-smile, wearing a tight button-up and a mini skirt. "Heeeey! How are you?" she greeted at the camera, giggling slightly.
Yes, she handled it by watching erotic livestreams.
Admittedly, she found it embarrassing at first and stopped watching after her first but there was one particular streamer that she couldn't resist. A streamer that went by the username of 'khm_xxx'.
There was something with how she moved her body that oddly reminded her of you, a pornstar version of you, but Mizu couldn't quite place her finger on it. Maybe it was how cute and sweet the streamer was with her viewers, how her curves looked, or maybe it was just...y'know, her imagination and she was just being a pervert.
The streamer giggled even more as more viewers appeared, greeting the top donators. "I'm so excited to spend this session with you all," she said in an excited yet sweet tone. Her hands reached up to the camera and pulled it down, placing it in angle that shower her body from neck to her thighs.
"I've been so stressed out with work lately, so..." She placed a cardboard box on her lap, tapping the sides with her fingernails. "I bought a few toys to help me relax."
Mizu moved to rest her back against her pillows as she watched her favorite cam girl set the box down and move closer to the camera. There was something about that box that she couldn't quiet put her finger on. Like it looked familiar...
Meanwhile, khm_xxx had set down the box on her computer table and was slowly unbuttoning her shirt, making the donations roll-in. Once she was done, she tossed her shirt somewhere in the room. "I also bought a new pair of lingerie on the way home. What do you guys think?" she asked, pushing her chest closer to the camera.
'Fuck, those boobs are so fucking hot,' Mizu thought, breath becoming a bit shallow as anticipation started to build up in her slowly.
Even more donations rolled in, making the streamer laugh slightly. The chat was filling up with dirty comments and comments telling her how pretty she looked in her new bra. "Do you guys want to see the panties too?" she asked in playful tone, lifting the side of her skirt up slightly.
Chats upon chats and donations upon donations kept rolling in, telling her to take the damn skirt off. "Chat's a bit demanding today, aren't you?" she laughed teasingly. "You guys are lucky I love to spoil you all."
Slowly, she unzipped her skirt and let it fall to her feet, the sight making Mizu grow even hotter in her seat. She was wearing those goddamn open crotch panties. It wasn't even covering anything at all, making her gaze linger on the streamer's clit which was slightly peeking out from arousal.
"W-Wait..I didn't think it would be this embarrassing but I do feel kind of shy now," khm_xxx giggled sheepishly, tips of her ears getting a bit red and hands covering her crotch as she sat down. This shy display was fucking hot too.
She opened the box in front of her and picked a toy before showing it up close to the camera. A simple egg vibrator to start off. "Let's try this one first. It apparently has...three speeds," she explained, inspecting it and turning each setting up before turning it off.
Propping feet up on the chair, she slowly spread her legs revealing her cute little cunt. A small bead of slick glistening at her hole and clit slightly red and swollen from anticipation. Her fingers spreading her folds open before pressing the toy on her clit, eliciting a soft groan from her. Slowly, she circled the toy around her clit before turning it on the lowest setting, making her body jump a bit.
Her eyes narrowed a bit as she let out a quiet laugh to hide the gasp she accidentally let out, squirming in her seat. Soft moans escaped her mask-covered lips as she held the vibrator in place. Her toes curling slightly as she leaned back even more against her chair. She looked at the chat and let out a playful giggle despite her moans at the amount of donations coming in.
"S-Should I turn it up more?" she managed to stutter out, tilting her head a bit, giving the camera a fake innocent look. Without even waiting for the chat to tell her to, she turned the speed up even more, body tensing up as moans spilled out of her mouth.
The bead of slick collecting at her entrance was now dripping down to the soft padding of her chair, making Mizu groan slightly at the sight. Her eyes watching as the cam girl stared back at the camera with lust-filled half-lidded eyes as if staring back at her. For a moment, kmh_xxx's eyes almost resembled yours.
No, that's impossible. You were too pure for that.
She slipped her own pants down, kicking it off of the bed before spreading her own legs. Her hands following the streamer's pace as she watched her press the vibrator against her clit further. The soft flesh of her thighs jiggling slightly as her legs trembled.
khm_xxx's let out a breathy laugh mixed with sweet moans. "I...I didn't expect it to be—fuck oh my god—so fucking strong," she moaned out. "S-Should I turn it up even more? Can I handle it?"
Even more requests for her to turn the toy on to the highest setting flooded in. Her eyes sparkled at how much her chat was spoiling her, donations upon donations flooding in. "I swear...you..fuck...y-you guys are so...spoiled."
With a single click of the remote, the toy pressed against her nub vibrated faster, a loud whine escaping her throat. Her hands couldn't help but push the vibrator against her folds even more, one hand pulling the hood of her clit so she could draw circles around the bundle of nerves with the toy.
The toy was now coated with her own wetness, slipping from her fingers occasionally. Her moans progressively got louder and her pants deeper. The tips of her ears were now a bit red from the warmth her body felt.
"Mmh fuck...I—shitshitshit fuck—I think I'm goin' to cum," she moaned out desperately, back arching slightly as her hands moved the toy around her clit faster.
Looking at the camera, eyebrows furrowed, toes curling, hands gripping the sides of the chair, she orgasmed with a loud choked back moan. The livestream was flooded with chats and donations as her body twitched from the pleasure.
Blue eyes watched her through the screen as she watched her slowly came down from her high, panting heavily. Today's live stream was so fucking good, she thought, fingers on her own clit pausing as her favorite streamer's thighs slowly relaxed albeit still trembling.
"She always cums so fast," she groaned out, resting her phone on her chest, feeling a bit edged. It sounded like a complaint but she actually found it so hot. She wondered if you were the sa—no wait fuck, don't think like that.
Mizu picked her phone up again as she heard khm_xxx thanking those who donated, watching as she bent forward, giving the camera the best possible view of her chest while she read the chats. "Am I ending the stream?" she read out before shaking her head with a chuckle. "No, no. I'm still excited to try one more toy out."
Oh?
Her hands rummaged through the cardboard box again before pulling a dildo out of the box. "Ta da!" she chimed, showing it to the camera, leaning closer to read the responses. "Hmmm? I know I bought one for the last stream but this one is pink...and cute."
The streamer placed the dildo on her chair, tip facing upwards before taking a deep breath. "It's a bit longer than last stream's too," she added sheepishly, spreading her legs yet again and angling her entrance towards the tip of the toy. A slightly nervous yet excited laugh escaping her throat as she looked at it. "Well it's more than a bit longer," she joked, using her hand to position the tip to her entrance.
"O-Oh my fuck...holy shiiiiit," she moaned out as she lowered herself, the toy sinking inside of her slowly. Her eyes glanced at the toy before looking at the camera again, tears springing up her eyes from the overwhelming sensation of the silicone stretching her cunt out. "...'t feels so good.."
Mizu's breath hitched at the display, hands going back to her clit, fingers gathering some slick from her entrance before rubbing circles around the sensitive bundle of nerves. The sound of the live stream mixing with her own moans.
Fingers slowly entering her own entrance, her eyes remained glued to her phone, watching the woman bouncing up and down on the dildo, eyes rolling back. She could already feel the pleasure building up inside, her climax slowly approaching. But just as she was about to cum...
*ding**dong*
MOTHERUCK—
She hurriedly pulled her fingers out, turning her phone off and put her pants on. Who the fuck is interrupting her self-fuck session huh?
Once she opened the door, her eyes narrowed at the sight of the delivery man who looked at her nervously. "What?" she almost growled out, the annoyance from the interruption very obvious. The man gulped before showing her a parcel. "Is this the right address?"
Her eyes scanned the name and address on the parcel and realized that it was addressed to you. Maybe instead of fingering herself to a cam girl that reminded her of you, she'd go and deliver this to you instead.
"Yeah. Thanks," she replied, still looking a bit annoyed at the delivery man but hey, at least she has a good reason to visit you now. After signing the proof of delivery, she went back to her unit and grabbed her phone before going over to yours.
Like a good neighbor, she rang the doorbell and waited for you to greet her with the usual smile. Her mind thinking about which kind of tea you would offer to her today. A few minutes passed and she heard nothing.
She rang the doorbell again and waited. Still nothing.
What was going on? You were usually quick to answer the door.
Were you in some sort of danger? Maybe you slipped and fell?
Worry getting the best of her, she lifted the pot of snake plants you put in front of your door and grabbed the key taped to the bottom. Entering your house without permission made her feel a bit uneasy but her worry was greater than her guilt.
Silence greeted her as she entered your unit, making her feel even more uneasy. She was about to call out to you when she heard a peculiar noise...like the sound of squelching and moaning.
Her hands immediately grabbed her phone, thinking she accidentally opened the live stream again; but upon checking, it was off. So where was the moaning coming from?
A gulp went down her throat as she quietly looked around with silent steps, parcel in her arms.
At the other end of the room, the sight of your office door slightly open caught her eye. The light seeping out through the door made her feel curious. Her thoughts racing as the moans continued to echo around the apartment. Surely those weren't coming from you...right?
But nothing could have prepared her for what she saw. Peeking into the small crack of the door, she froze in place, hands gripping parcel until her nails punctured holes into the plastic.
In front of the computer, was you, with the camera pointed at you.
You, with the same lingerie khm_xxx was wearing.
You, with a mask covering half your face.
You, riding the same dildo she saw on the live stream, moaning loudly as your hands ran through your hair, boobs bouncing up and down.
...
Holy shit.
What?
HUHHH????
Her thoughts went blank for a moment before she finally snapped back into reality. Hurriedly, she pulled out her phone, turning the volume off and check the livestream again, eyes glancing back at you and back at her phone over and over. Once she was able to confirm it, everything made sense to her now.
The reason why khm_xxx reminded her so much of you, why she couldn't resist the live streams, why she couldn't help but stare into that streamer's eyes whenever she looked at the camera, why that box from earlier looked so familiar...
You were khm_xxx.
Mizu bit her bottom lip to prevent the gasp from her lips from escaping. She peeked into your office again, setting your parcel on the floor to put a hand over her mouth.
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck," you moaned out in a chant as your hips moved up and down faster, grinding it down occasionally. Your eyebrows knitted together in desperation. The sound of your pussy going down on the toy making a loud squelching sound each time. Your half-lidded eyes looked down at how much of a mess you were making, a breathy giggle leaving your lips. "I-It sounds so dirty.."
Her hands slipped into her pants at the sight, gaze trailing from your plush thighs to the pool of juices accumulating on the padded chair, dripping down the toy. Now that she knew your secret, she couldn't help the arousal she felt.
Your hands went down to spread your folds, middle finger playing with the swollen nub. "P-please...look at me more.." you pleaded, "Look at my...p-perverted little cunt.." Your eyes shimmered even more as the money kept rolling in, screen flooding with colorful notifications. She could already tell by the way your eyes moved that you were flashing the camera the same cute and charming smile you always gave her.
At your words, Mizu pulled her pants down slightly and inserted a finger inside herself, curling it and massaging her inside in a 'come here' motion while she massaged her nub with her palm. Her eyes watching as you grabbed the vibrator again, switching it on the highest setting and rubbed it hurriedly against your clit. The sweet sobs you were letting out made her feel hotter than usual.
Her hands moved faster as your pace became more desperate, her pace matching with yours. She covered her mouth with one hand to suppress the groans threatening to escape.
"I-I think I'm 'bout to mphh..cum again.." you sobbed out desperately, tears sliding down your flushed cheeks at the feeling. The sensation was so overwhelming it was making your head blank and your lungs heavy. A string of incoherent curses escaping your lips as your riding became even more erratic.
Pleasure started building up inside both your bodies as climax approached you. She watched as you let out a loud moan, body twitching and your back arching as you continued to bounce on the dildo, cum dripping down the phallic silicone toy, forming a ring around the shaft.
Mizu bit the back of her hand as her climax finally came, her eyes glued on your figure as her hand continued to move, riding out the high of her orgasm. Slowly, she pulled her fingers away and readjusted her pants before peaking into your office again.
The image of you slowly pulling the dildo out and sitting on your chair, chest moving up and down as you panted, cheeks red and looking completely flustered was now forever engraved in her memory. Each bead of sweat and each tear streak would haunt her erotic dreams. After regaining your breath, you sat up and shakily moved closer to the monitor.
Your smile widened slightly at the amount of donations before you let out a soft laugh, a bit exhausted from your previous activities. "Thank you all. I'll be eating well tonight," you joked at your chat, gushing slightly as they praised you. Before you could readjust the camera again, you saw something at the corner of your eye.
Glancing at the door, your eyes widened as you made eye contact with Mizu. Your mouth opened slightly before you held yourself back from calling her. Ending stream was your priority first. You waved at the camera, blowing a little kiss at it. "W-Well that's all for today! I-I hope you enjoyed or even cummed to it a little," you joked hurriedly. "Bye! bye!"
The moment your gazes connected with each other's, Mizu was already standing up and walking towards the door, ignoring the shakiness in her own legs. Upon hearing your office door open wider, her footsteps moved even quicker.
Her hand was already on the door knob when you suddenly pulled her towards you, your head making contact with her torso for a brief moment. Mizu nervously glanced down at you to see your eyes narrowed at her. You had already put an oversized shirt on to cover your body and had thrown away the mask you wore.
"H-How much of that did you see?!" you asked, still red from both embarrassment and exertion. The way your hands were gripping hers tightly made her want to either pull you in and hug you or made her want to cower in shame.
How was she supposed to admit that she has been watching your streams for a while now?
She bit down on her bottom lip and glanced anywhere but at you, keeping silent. Your face grew hotter at her silence, taking it as a sign that she was able to witness more than you'd like. "I...I..." You tried to form a coherent sentence but your embarrassment was getting the best of you. Even when you were off stream, your shy display was still cute.
Mizu sighed before pulling out her phone and unlocking it, showing her watch history.
It was all you.
Your mouth gaped open as you scrolled through her phone, glancing up at her once you were done. She scratched the back of her neck before putting her phone back in her pocket, looking away. "So uhh...to answer your question...yeah.."
Once she heard no reply coming from your end, she immediately headed for the door, accepting that she won't be able to face you ever again.
"Wait!" you called out, pulling her in again. She raised an eyebrow as you looked up at her before looking elsewhere shyly. "So...even before today..?" Mizu sighed and nodded, looking away as well. "I'm sorry I'll stop if you'd li—"
"Would you like to..umm.. join me? In the livestream, I mean."
...
...
...
what.
Join you in what?
A loud whine of embarrassment escaped your lips at how weird the question sounded. "You don't have to! I'm sorry I'm really sorry, Mizu!" you exclaimed, hiding your face with your hands, letting out another embarrassed whine.
You wanted her to...join you? In your live stream?
"Wait, wait. What do you mean?" she asked. Now it was her turn to pull you in, her long slender fingers prying your hands off of your face. You sighed and looked at her in the eye, pouting a bit. "Like what I said, do you want to join me in my live stream...a-as a y'know?" Your voice getting quieter and quieter with every word.
Her eyes narrowed at you, her hands now gripping your wrists. Fuck was she finally getting what she wanted? Oh fuck fuck fuck..
"As a sex partner?" she asked in a low, husky voice. Mizu bit back the urge to smirk as you nodded shyly at her, watching as you squirmed in your place. "Why me?"
A sigh escaped your lips at her question, blush becoming redder if that was even possible. "B-Because I trust you, silly, and because I...no nevermind.."
She raised an eyebrow at the last statement but decided to ignore it. If you didn't want to say it, she wasn't going to pry. After all, you granting her an opportunity she didn't even know she'd be bless with. First, she found out her crush was her favorite cam girl and now she was inviting her to screw her until she couldn't walk in her next live stream? The universe loves her. Truly.
"So...?" you asked, glancing at her before looking at your feet. Mizu chuckled, making you raise an eyebrow at her. "If that's the case, then sure. I'll take care of you." or maybe she'll wreck you.
A sigh of relief escaped your lips at her response. "Then...let's talk about it soon. I'll message you when I'm free, okay?" you said cheerfully. "And uh...don't tell anyone about my secret please." She let out a huff of amusement and nodded, patting your head. "Of course I won't," she sighed out, smiling reassuringly at you. There was no fucking way she'll be sharing this information with anyone. She'd take this to grave if she had to.
"Well, I was just here to drop your parcel off so uh..I'll get going now." You nodded at her, as she slowly released her grip on your wrists. She glanced at you one last time before closing the door. Once she had left your apartment, a smirk appeared on her face.
Fuck this felt so glorious and she didn't even intend for this to happen.
Yeah, she'll confess her feelings some day, take you on a nice date, and marry you or sumshit. But for now, she'll be thinking of how she'll fuck you until you were pushing her away from how overwhelmed you body was.

I Analyzed All Of the Songs on Ranboo’s Lore Playlist and Here’s What I Learned.
We can pick a few themes out from the songs:
Time
Fighting something inside of you
Alluding to a villain arc
Transition of a person
My biggest theory from all this is that c!Ranboo is a time traveler from the future (probably before Mizu but after the Haunted Mansion). He traveled to the past, November 27th specifically, to stop c!Tommy’s exile. We can assume that in c!Ranboo’s future, c!Tommy burned down c!George’s house by himself but when c!Ranboo went back, he got caught up in it, thus creating a time paradox. (Evidence from the songs Merry-Go-Round of Life, all songs of Hawaii - Part Two by Miracle Musical, and The Ruler of Everything). Now knowing he is the cause of c!Tommy’s exile, c!Ranboo feels immense amounts of guilt for his actions, the regret keeping him up at night (Ain’t No Rest for The Wicked). This mental stress is something that has resulted in the beginnings of insanity for c!Ranboo (The Mind Electric).
A villain arc is very plausible for c!Ranboo in the near future, most likely brought up by harm coming to c!Tubbo or Michael (Killer Queen, Mr. Bad Guy, I Can’t Decide, Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked, and Live and Let Die)
Full Analysis on Each Song Under the Cut:
(All Song Lyric Analysis Credits go to the wonderful people on genius, I merely fit them into the context of the DreamSmp and c!Ranboo)
Prologue (StarKid) - A simple ticking clock. ARG trailer tie in as well as even more references of time.
Introduction to the Snow (Miracle Musical) - Comes off an album that (storywise) has the listener loop over and over the songs in the album, as a time paradox.
Dream Sweet in Sea Major (Miracle Musical) - Final song in the album (loops). Occurs in three movements. Tells the story of a sailor that gives himself up to the mermaids. Lyrics don’t give much in terms of hints at anything.
Turn the Lights Off (Tally Hall) - About a journey through puberty and adolescence (??) perhaps could be changed to fit. However main name of the song is meant to convey accepting differences and confronting fears, something c!Ranboo doesn’t really do. First line also says ‘Don’t go in there, you’ll become one, Freaky creatures, monster party’ perhaps relating to the enderwalk/possession c!Ranboo goes through.
The Mind Electric (Miracle Musical) - The song starts off in reverse, the singer speaking backwards. Once the song straightens out, we’re shown that the protagonist of the song is a mentally unstable man trying to figure out what triggers a specific fear. The second verse then goes into a young child who’s been held trial for insanity. The child and the judge then have an open dialogue throughout the rest of the verse until the child is sent to an asylum. The song concludes with insane yet peaceful thoughts from the child. Obviously I’m not a psychiatrist but doing some light research into insanity (NOT psychosis, as insanity is more of an umbrella term for unstable mental state while psychosis is a specified disorder) you can see a few signs of insanity that could be applied to c!Ranboo. ‘Denial of obvious problems’ Many times c! Ranboo has dismissed or downplayed his issues and problems, most notably when he’s found in a panicked state by c!Sam who asks him if he’s okay, to which c!Ranboo replies that he’s fine. ‘Delusions or Hallucinations’ this is a big one as throughout the Doomsday arc, c!Ranboo spoke to c!Dream in his panic room, only to realize he was talking to no one. ‘Dramatic changes in sleeping habits’ This is more of a reach as we have no actually confirmation but it could be assumed that c!Ranboo’s enderwalking could be disrupting his sleep patterns.
Live and Let Die (Paul McCartney) - a song about a once young person who used to say ‘Live and Let Live’ but has now changed their maxim to ‘Live and Let Die’. Could be said that as people grow older they grow more cynical. Granted the phrases mean the same thing but one seems much more pessimistic.
The Ruler of Everything (Tally Hall) - Once again a song about time, the entire song meant to symbolize how time controls our lives (once again feeding into a time paradox theory). The song has a verse that is a man and Time itself singing. The song then starts to speed up, representing how short periods of our lives can be in the grand scheme of things. ‘Do you understand that mechanical hands are the ruler of everything’ This lyric of the song is meant to mean that time (the mechanical hands of the clock) are at the root of everything, once again drawing us back to a time motif with Ranboo’s character. This specific line could lead us to believe that c!Ranboo is being ‘controlled’ by time, aka perhaps caught in a time travelers loop.
Merry-Go-Round Of Life (Howl’s Moving Castle OST) - While the song itself is an instrumental without words, one could do some digging into the story of Howl’s Moving Castle, spoilers for the film in this analysis. In Howl’s Moving Castle, there is a sequence in which Sophie goes back in time to find Howl, seeing him as a young boy. She calls out to him, telling him to find her in the future, before getting taken back to her time. It seems pretty insignificant until you remember that in the beginning of the film, during Howl and Sophie’s first interaction he says to her, “There you are, sweetheart, sorry I’m late. I was looking everywhere.” thus representing that Howl has been looking for Sophie his entire life after she called out to him in the past. So what does this mean for c!Ranboo? Well its just more time motif and even more time paradox themes. But what even is a time paradox? A time paradox is when somebody who has traveled back in time, becomes a part of the past and causes the events they set out to stop in the first place. Perhaps this means c!Ranboo traveled back in time to stop c!Tommy’s exile, as it was a catalyst event that resulted in many problems on the server (L’manberg’s second destruction to name one) before getting sucked into the events that caused it himself.
Killer Queen (Queen) - Really can’t say too much for this song as the song is meant to convey how “that classy people can be whores as well” (Freddie Mercury). Freddie also said that anyone else could call their own interpretations of the song as well. I can’t really think of too much about the song that could be molded to c!Ranboo.
Mr. Bad Guy (Freddie Mercury) - This one is more interesting as the bridge of this song details how Freddie is ‘Mr. Bad Guy’ and that he can ruin people’s lives and many people are afraid of him. This could sound like something c!Ranboo would say in relation to someone trying to threaten the people he cares about. c!Ranboo going to any length for those he cares about (most notably his family) is something that recently cc!Ranboo has tried to drive home, making it a tweet under his character’s lore thread on twitter.
Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked (Cage the Elephant) - The main line of this song is a bible verse that means that those who are sin-free can sleep well at night knowing they haven’t done anything wrong but those are commit sins need to keep one eye open at all times. Perhaps c!Ranboo believes that he has done something wrong that keeps him up at night. It could be tied back to the time paradox theory by saying that c!Ranboo is kept up at night by the fact that he couldn’t stop the bad events from happening, even becoming a part of them.
The Bidding (Tally Hall) - While the song itself is about an auction in which men are trying to “sell” themselves to a woman, I would like to call attention to one specific verse. ‘I’ve been training like a Pavlov dog, Let my independence out to take a hike, All you gotta do is activate my bell, and I’ll fetch you anything you like’. The first lyric calls reference to Ivan Pavlov, who ran a conditioning experiment on dogs, training them to associate the sound of a bell with food, whether they actually got food or not. The last two lyrics I find particularly interesting as we have seen somebody “activate” c!Ranboo. c!Sapnap. After c!Sapnap visited c!Dream in prison, c!Dream asked c!Sapnap to deliver a message to c!Ranboo. The message being ‘:)’. When c!Sapnap repeated the message to c!Ranboo, c!Ranboo immediately switched and began to speak in enderman language before wandering off. He then spoke to c!Sapnap in chat saying, in ender, “Doomed are those who try to run, for it always catches up eventually :)’. This is one of many incidents of c!Ranboo being switched into his enderwalk state, in which he does stuff for c!Dream such as burning down the community house.
I Can’t Decide (Scissor Sisters) - This song is a upbeat song about a psychotic killer trying to decide on whether or not he should kill his victim. This song could relate back to c!Ranboo’s relationship with c!Dream. c!Ranboo has been very cagey on whether or not he would like c!Dream, most recently being very eager to break into prison and murder him. This song could also hint towards a possible villain arc for c!Ranboo.
Stardust Crusaders (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventures OST) - Unfortunately, this song is another instrumental. And even more unfortunately, I don’t watch JJBA so I can’t comment on what the song could be alluding to. Stardust Crusaders is the name of an arc of the show but reading through the plot summary on Wikipedia doesn’t turn back anything that could be tied to c!Ranboo.
A Mask of My Own Face (Lemon Demon) - While the song itself is relatively simple, a man singing about how he wants to wear a mask of his own face to confuse people, a few lines have sparked certain people to examine the song deeper coming to the conclusion that the singer wants to cause chaos and controversy. The mask of his own face would allow him to mask his identity, as no one would wear a mask of their own face, while still allowing him to be associated with the chaos. For c!Ranboo I can’t really see this pointing to anything but the Syndicate. c!Ranboo really does believe in their core value of dismantling the things on the server that are bad but also he knows many people he’s close to who are at odds with members of the Syndicate, most notable c!Tubbo. However this could be rather lose as cc!Ranboo is a big fan of Lemon Demon and who hasn’t put a song from their favorite artist on a playlist even though the vibe doesn’t necessarily fit.
Stranded Lullaby (Miracle Musical) - Another song of the Miracle Musical album Hawaii - Part Two, which loops itself over within the story. This particular song is about a sailor sailing through a cerebral ocean, which may or may not represent time itself; the sailor being a time traveler who had a mistake in his time traveling. This once again brings us back to the theory of c!Ranboo as a time traveler. There is also a line I would like to call upon, ‘Aimless thoughts and papers blown around, A million moments meant remembered rest in deep dark sound’. These lyrics are meant to relate to memories and how truly fleeting some may be, just papers floating in our brains eventually lost to time. This obviously can relate back to c!Ranboo’s memory problems, which are a known side effect of time travel, as told to us through the story of c!Karl, the only other time traveler on the server (excluding c!Connor who is only theorized as a time traveler for right now).
Hidden In The Sand (Tally Hall) - This is slightly complicated as the song has two meanings. On the surface, the song is about a man who falls in love with a woman who leaves him, however the man is still in love with her. But in the music video, a new meaning can be found. The music video shows a cruise full of people, all very nice and kind until the ship begins to sink and the real, selfish, sides of the people is revealed. ‘Hidden in the Sand’ is meant to symbolize that a persons true nature is covered up by their outward acts and personality. This could apply to c!Ranboo, as he is outwardly very polite and gentle, growing attached to every animal he finds and refusing to kill any Enderman but he could have a whole other personality to him that we don’t know about. If songs such as ‘I Can’t Decide’ and ‘Mr. Bad Guy’ are any hints, we could theorize that c!Ranboo has a secret dark side to him that could be exposed in the events of his family being threatened.
Now I’m Here (Queen) - No statements or theories about what the song means or any of the lyrics.
& (Tally Hall) - This song, as with others off this particular album, deal with opposites. The whole chorus of this song is about certain opposites such as dark and light or cold and hot. Relating back to c!Ranboo, perhaps this song is meant to tell us that c!Ranboo is a foil of a certain character. Possibilities could be c!Dream and c!Ranboo, as c!Dream is very against attachments towards things and is a very outwardly violent person while c!Ranboo is attached to almost every animal and enderman (not to mention c!Tubbo and Michael) and is a very peaceful person, or perhaps c!Ranboo and c!Karl, the two time (theorized) travelers on the server. c!Karl has a stronger control over his abilities and seems to retain most of his memory fairly well so far while c!Ranboo perhaps can’t control his power and has short term memory loss and can’t remember where he came from.
I’m Gonna Win (Rob Cantor) - This song is a description of a fight between the singer and his inner demons, the fight resulting in very physical injuries for the singer. This can relate back to c!Ranboo, as he could be fighting the demons of his enderwalking state. This song has a very cheerful outlook on the fight however, as the singer is very confident in his abilities and knows he will win. c!Ranboo isn’t always the most positive, sometimes believing more in the pessimistic outcome but this could be a new leaf for c!Ranboo or a goal of his to be more positive.

2nd part.
Other: Both groups understand they have different ways of showing affection and closeness. Though Charles does hesitantly ask Jackie if Ran ever shows affection, to which Jackie answers that he does he just isn't a very physical person.
After Ran first attacks and injuries Ranbob, and once the groups get the two separate, they sit down and talk. The Gladiators go first, saying they've never seen Ran that aggressive and angry before and ask what Ranbob could've done. To which the Fishermen tell them (to an extent. Somethings they leave out as its best for Ranbob to tell them) and after sharing, ask what Ran's relationship with Ranbob was. Where Watson says Ran said before he had a brother, and they then connect the pieces. So in summary, the Gladiators know about Ranbob being controlled by Dream, what Ranbob as done, how it affected him, and what the Fishermen have done to help him out and the progress Ranbob has made. While the Fishermen know that Ran has said he had a brother (Ranbob said it too), Ran having to survive on his own for years, And Ran having nightmare's but don't know what they are about.
The Gladiators are skeptical of Ranbobs story, but after reading a bit of a dairy Ranbob recorded the experience in when able to, and both picture and multiple eye-witness accounts they eventually believe him.
He ran from the hunters for around 4 years, he also lived alone and learned to survive during his time, while being constantly on the move. Multiple times the brothers have said something concerning, either jokingly or very casually, but both ways the brothers groups have responded with utmost concern and basically interrogating them until they find out the events behind what they said. Where they then either leave it be, or there's more talking, comforting, and maybe even cuddle piles.
It happens once during the trip, when Ranbob just isnt having a good day at all, when he relapses he immediately tells the Fishermen (as he has grown to do), who then go to comfort him and do a sort of therapy. Ran immediately uses the relapse as evidence that he shouldn't be trusted and that he is still the same person he was before. While Watson, ignoring him, goes to see if he can do anything to help, while Grievous and Jackie try to lead Ran away to cause less stress for Ranbob.
It is confusing at first for them, and when their finally able to, they (both groups) ask eachother what different instincts their enderman friend has. And after exchanging it they just kinda leave it be then and accept it. Sometimes Cletus will laugh when he just randomly sees Ran carrying someone around and mocks them, but Ran tends to growl at him when he mocks the person he's carrying, so he doesn't mock em often.
He was only able to eat crackers, nuts and seeds, and dried out vegetables. So when he first goes to the Fishermen's house he's only able to keep down stuff like soup and again crackers. Though he's able to slowly work his way up to eating meat, which then he's able to keep most things down.
The gladiators are overwhelmingly happy about no longer following such a strict schedule and can spend their time doing whatever they want. The fishermen are at first a bit hesitant at adventuring, seeing as they never really adventured outside of their home to much before, but are still very excited to see new places and get new items. Cuddle piles are sometimes shared amongst the groups, but strictly when neither of the brothers are nearby, other habits like telling bed time stories and sharing supplies and food are shared amongst the groups. While a sort of therapy sessions type habit are only in the fishermen group. And making and testing weapons are only in the gladiator group. For nicknames, Ran- Tall man/Tall bastard, Jackie- Jack, Shorty(teasingly/jokingly), Watson- Dad, Grievous- Ugly, John, Gri, Ranbob- Bobby, Benjamin- Benny, Ben, Charles- (Just Charles), Cletus- Wildfire, Little shit (Isaac only calls him that, Benjamin doesn't like it though), Isaac- Saac (pronounced as Isaac without the I, or just Zack).
The fishermen live a calmer, more quite life. Where the most active they've gotten is going to Mizu and getting Ranbob and a few attempted robbing. While the gladiators live a very active and fighting filled life, with only a few breaks where they can do whatever they want too. The fishermen are more accepting of outsiders and willing to give them a chance in their group. While the gladiators, you need to prove you can earn a place and are more tight in their group (Which is partly why it means so much to Ran and shocks him when his haunting welcomes Ranbobs group into their group). The fishermen are more freewilled, not having to follow a schedule. While the gladiators do follow a schedule and typically don't get much freewill.
They originally wanted to live in Mizu. But after the discovery of the Dream Mask Benjamin stated that it was far too dangerous to stay, much less live there. So they instead just went and looted the area then left
As of now I do not plan to add anymore characters. Maybe they'll meet some while traveling but im not positive yet, if they do meet someone later on though it'll probably be either Wilburs decendent, or if I include other Tales I'll include them probably.
It is very hard to convince Ran for a good while that what happened to Ranbob was the truth, but when he does finally accept it he's horrified. He feels incredibly guilty about leaving his brother and doing nothing during this whole time other than making it harder for him to recover. And immediately does what he can to make it up and help him out. And to the relief of the others, the brothers start to grow closer again, although there's still some problems. It took multiple tales of Mizu and Dream from all around the world, some very old records about how manipulative Dream was and how it seemed he had supernatural powers, and even finding Ranbobs journal and deciding to read it for safety reasons (where its recorded Ranbobs deteriorating mental state and all of the events where Dream came in, and even Dream wrote in it sometimes, comparing it to Ranboos Memory Book.)
Personalities (More may be added later): Ran- Secretive, protective, quite, joking when gotten close too, patient, serious mostly. Watson- Kind, very approachable, the father figure, logical, has a very comforting presence. Jackie- Playful, joking, mean at times, teasing, loud, energetic. Grievous- Very kind, energetic at times, quite, prankster, hard to trust someone. Ranbob- Quite, shy, well-meaning, clumsy, hesitant in things, very eager to please someone. Benjamin- Truthworthy, comforting presence, kind, approachable. Cletus- Chaotic, mean at times, prankster, loud, confident, energetic. Isaac- Leader figure, kind, logical, playful. Charles- Quite, shy, anxious, smart, logical. And idk if you want him too but Porkius- Confident, arrogant, hard headed/stubborn, hard to talk with, but extremely willing to make changes and call off events if serious injury to anyone is threatened.
Sorry if some answers are dull, I had trouble coming up with answers and wording some of them. But as a bonus I thought of something that could happen while traveling (while they've been traveling for almost 5 months now). Maybe a thunderstorm is coming in and the group is trying to find shelter and they find it mostly in time, but the brothers start to really get into a verbal fight during the searching and so start to lag behind. And just as it starts to storm more Ran screams and yells "YOUR NOTHING MORE THAN AN MURDER! NOTHING YOU EVER DO WILL MAKE UP FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE!"(or something similar) Which just really breaks Ranbob, and the two stand across from eachother in the rain, before Ranbob chokes out a heartbroken agreement and runs off. Ran almost going to chase after him, but deciding not too, and going to meet up with the group. Also Ranbob having a nightmare about when he first saw Ran again and is terrified in the nightmare, as no one is there to actually stop Ran this time (this happens before the thunderstorm part). So he does actually begin to kill him, and during the dream he keeps seeing glimpses of he and Ran as kids, being so close and laughing and everything. Then just before he wakes up he sees a younger, tween Ran directly next to the Ran killing him, and the Vision Ran's face is frozen in a scream of terror and heartbroken look in his eyes, and his eyes are filled to the brim of tears (which is the exact moment a Ranbob controlled by Dream turns the blade on Ran suddenly). Which just completely breaks Ranbobs heart, and when he wakes up, with tears frozen on his face, he can't look at Ran for days without seeing the terrified face of his younger brother.
1: So they’re pretty chill about it. Alright.
2: Fairly skeptical, but still willing to help out, and eventually coming to agree. Interesting. Ranbob has a diary? From before? That must be quite the interesting read. How much did young Ranbob understand was going on? How did he feel about it? Just how much does his diary show of his mental decline? Does he still have it? Were the Gladiators supposed to be reading it, or is it more of a ‘I found this, let’s see what’s inside’ thing? And I know the eye-witness accounts are probably the fishermen, but what are the pictures? Of Ranbob before Dream, back in Mizu? Of Ranbob when the fishermen found him?
3: Casually drops trauma on them, huh? What kind of things have been said? How much of it do these two traumatized gremlins think is the norm? Does Ran have any particular enemies with the hunters? Was it hard for him to settle in one place again?
4: What do these relapse consist of, exactly? Ranbob becoming aggressive? Trying to run? Can’t imagine Ran’s too happy Watson ignored him about it. What was the aftermath of this event? Does Ran know what a relapse means, or does he just overhear and assume?
5: So Ran totes people around, and Cletus occasionally makes fun of them. How long before someone points out that Ranbob, as you put it, follows them around like a lost puppy, in retaliation?
6: The more I hear about Ranbob, the more I kind of want to wrap him in a warm blanket, give him cocoa, and go threaten Dream with bodily harm. That kind of food isn’t exactly great nourishment. If that’s the kind of thing he was eating, and only once every three days, I’m not shocked the Fishermen managed to force him into a room. Or that his house kept falling on him. Poor guy must be a malnourished noodle-stick. Honestly, he sounds light enough Cletus could probably carry him around. Or a breeze could. Hopefully he gets a little more weight on him, he needs it.
7: Sounds like the first few days of the trip are probably pretty chaotic, with everyone adjusting. But they sound like they’re having fun, so that’s good. What kind of things are the two brothers doing to be gone long enough for their groups to be able to cuddle pile for a bit? Gathering supplies? Do they just know, and do their own thing for a bit so their hauntings can chill together? And Bobby, huh? Sounds an awful lot like what Ran used to call Ranbob. Who exactly revived the nickname, and what was both Ranbob’s reaction to it being brought back, and Ran’s reactions to hearing it again?
8: The clash between lifestyles seems to be a pretty big one. The gladiators are a bit more willing to jump into things, and the fishermen are generally more open. Seems like they’ll contrast nicely once things settle down. So it’s kind of a big deal for the gladiators to just welcome the fishermen? You said they have to prove themselves. Do the fishermen ever end up doing something like that, or are they just an exception? Or is it that what they’ve already done proved themselves?
9: They just loot the place, huh? Do they keep what they find or sell it? What’s Ranbob’s feelings about that?
10: A Wilbur descendant? Interesting.
11: Oof. Well, at least they’re figuring it out. So there’s records about Dream and such? Do they just happen to find them, or are they led there? Who wrote those records? Does Ranbob notice when they find them, find some himself, or is that part of the trip he doesn’t know about? And Dream wrote in Ranbob’s journal too? Yikes. That must have been terrifying for Ranbob to experience. He compared it to Ranboo’s memory book, huh? Did that mean Ranbob figured out that something similar was happening to his ancestor? If so, how did he feel about it? And how does Ran feel about Dream’s part in all this? What does he do once he finally accepts it? Hug Ranbob? Apologize? Try to murder Dream?
12: Sounds like quite interesting group there. Charles and Ranbob both being shy sounds adorable honestly. Porkius sounds like he knows what he’s doing, and does it well.
13: They don’t seem particularly dull to me. But thank you for the heart-crushing scene, I’ll cherish it forever. Do the fishermen chase after Ranbob? How do the gladiators feel about that whole thing? Does Ran feel a bit guilty about it?

Hey, what if Willow Schnee (a.k.a. Ice Queen Mom) actually becomes the Winter Maiden? I mean, it's unlikely, she isn't the youngest... But still. It is worth a thought. Or hey... Wait. Even better: what if Neo disguises as Winter and gets a hold of the Winter Maiden powers like that somehow? Aaaaaaah, may I ask you to comment on these thoughts?
Hiya Mizu. Apologies for the late response. Hmm, while I like your theory, I’m not so sure about Willow Schnee ever becoming the Winter Maiden though. For me, I always figured that Willow’s key role for the Atlas Arc was assisting Weiss in reconnecting with her grandfather: Nicholas Schnee—the original founder of the Schnee Dust Company.
However, some RWBY theorists have mentioned that the RWBY Theme: Path to Isolation hinted that Nicholas Schnee passed away prior to the main story. This bummed me out a bit since I was hoping for us to at least get a glimpse of ole St. Nick. Perhaps even have Weiss learn of her grandfather’s true location and go in search of him with her mother’s help in hopes of convincing him to reclaim the Schnee Dust Company from her father.
But with Nick believed to be deceased, this leaves his daughter—-Mama Schnee a.k.a Willow as the closest thing to a true heir that Nick had. If anything, my hopes now is that Jacques is dethroned as Head of Schnee Dust Company with Willow pulling herself together to take his place as she rightfully should have long ago.
While I’m unsure of Willow’s personality, I’d like to think that Willow must’ve been Nick’s eldest or only child and it wouldn’t have surprised me if Willow was the one person who knew her father better than anyone else in her family. She probably even had a much better idea of how Nick would’ve ran the company and probably would’ve made a more fitting successor to her father than her so-called “husband”.
Back in V4, Weiss told Yang that on her tenth birthday, her father callously revealed that the only reason he married Willow was because of her family name. So it wouldn’t surprise me if the only reason that Jacques managed to convince Nicholas to sign the Schnee Dust Company over to him was with Willow’s support. Here’s what I’m thinking.
My theory is Willow Schnee was originally meant to become Nicholas’ successor with St. Nick planning to leave both his company and his legacy in the hands of his beloved daughter. However, once Jacques got his slimy hand rubbing Willow’s back, he was able to persuade Willow into convincing her father to make Jacques the new CEO in her place. Tie that all in with Jacques proposing to Willow just to further win her approval. I’d like to believe that Willow has always been the core reason that Jacques became Head of Schnee Dust Company in the first place. If she hadn’t fervently vouched on Jacques’ behalf then her father would’ve never agreed to the idea.
Perhaps toss in the notion of Willow never truly desiring to inherit her father’s company out of her own fears of never being able to measure up to her father’s legacy and expectations of her. Unlike Jacques’ relationship with his children, I’d like to believe that Willow shared a very close relationship with her father so his inevitable passing probably hit her more than anyone. All the more reason why I think it would be a fitting conclusion for Willow if she ends up taking over as CEO of Schnee Dust Company in Jacques place—finally standing up to Jacques and taking back what he stole from her and her family.
The allusion seems to be that Jacques broke Willow. So what I’m banking on is Willow piecing herself back together through the love and support of her children and taking back what probably should’ve been hers from the get-go. Starting with her father’s company.
Despite Nick signing the company over to Jacques, I’d like or at least I’d hope that there is a chance for his leadership to be relinquished back to Willow as she was always meant to be the rightful successor to the Schnee Dust Company as the daughter of its founder. That’s my main headcanon for Willow.
She will replace Jacques as CEO of Schnee Dust Company and work together with Whitley to undo the mess Jacques’ reign has done to tarnish the family business.
I say Willow and Whitley together since I’m hoping that there is at least somewhat of a bond between Willow and her children; inclusive of Whitley.
Since Whitley is the Schnee child who is often at home, it’d be interesting if Whitley does spend part of his time being the one to mostly look after his mother or at least look out for her. Since the idea is that Jacques doesn’t seem to care that much about his wife, I’m looking to Whit to be the person to cater for hismother’s well-being.
I didn’t get any impressions of animosity towards Mama Schnee from Whit back in V4. He more so kept tabs on her whereabouts and activities at home. So I’m hoping that should Willow somehow be absent or excuse herself from the Schnee Dinner Party for this new episode, Whit would be the one to inform Weiss of how she’s been coping since she was last home.
Or something to that liking. But yeah, that’s what I believe will be Willow’s destiny. Not to become the next Winter Maiden (since she has zero connection to Fria and not even Winter herself seems to think about her mother much since she disowned herself from the Schnee family name) but to become the rightful Head of the Schnee Dust Company in place of Jacques after he falls further from grace and Willow is finally able to put the Jacques-ass in his place.
As for your next point regarding Neo becoming Winter Maiden via impersonating Winter—now that’s a theory that I think you’re might be onto something with, fam.
Since the conclusion of the Battle of Haven highlighted our heroes successfully claiming their first Relic, my assumption is that the Fall of Atlas will give our heroes their second biggest loss since the Fall of Beacon while simultaneously marking the first time they lost a Relic to the enemy.
Since Ironwood revealed to Oscar that the only thing keeping Atlas airborne is the Relic of Creation then that line alone was mega foreshadowing for the kingdom falling straight out of the sky as a result of someone taking the Relic.
Last time, with Yang, it was a hero to retrieve the Relic of Knowledge from the Vault of the Spring Maiden.
So naturally, I’m expecting the reverse this time with a villain claiming the Relic of Creation from the Vault of the Winter Maiden, resulting in Atlas plummeting to decimate Mantle below. It’ll be the double homicide of both of Solitas’ signature kingdoms.
Ironically enough, perhaps… this will be what leads to the People of Mantle and Atlas finally coming together when they have to rebuild a new home for themselves from scratch. But perhaps I’m getting too ahead of myself here.
As you brought up Neo impersonating Winter, I wonder if this will be part of the “cruel thing” that Neo has been alluded to commit since V6.
What if…by some means, Neo and Cinder learn of the identity and whereabouts of the Fria as well as her connection to Winter.
So as you said, Neo will impersonate Winter and the cruel thing Neo will do is murder Fria—probably by either smothering her to death with a pillow or via strangulation all the while using the face Fria trusted the most—Winter’s—up until the very end when she reveals her true self to Fria so that the last thing she sees before the poor old woman breathes her last breath is Neo’s face silently smirking down at her as Fria’s powers are absorbed into Neo’s body.
I mean Neo has done some shady things in the past courtesy of her time spent working alongside Roman Torchwick. However, I’d like to think not even Torchwick would’ve encouraged his young accomplice to steal magic from an innocent old lady. I mean that facetiously. Who knows what Roman would’ve condoned Neo to do if he was still alive.
Strangely enough to say, I kind of like the concept of Neo becoming the Winter Maiden because I see it as symbolic. Not just for the obvious pun of our veteran ice-cream-inspired character gaining magical powers over the element of ice.
But if Neo kills Fria then she would no longer be like Torchwick anymore. The thing with Neo was that she was supposed to represent the female equivalent of Roman as his right hand protégée, right?
But if Neo kills Fria then she would be just like Cinder. Cinder only retrieved her Fall Maiden magic by stealing it from her predecessor through murder by her own hands. If Neo ends up doing the exact same thing as Cinder then to me I will see that action as synonymous with her shedding the part that she shared with Torchwick and becoming more like Cinder Fall; her new master. At least, that’s impression she gives; even to Cinder.
I mean I don’t like the thought of yet another Maiden’s powers being stolen through them being murdered by their ‘successor’;however…somehow I can see this becoming canonical. There is no doubt in my mind that a villain is going to claim the Relic of Creation and spark the Fall of Atlas.
What I’m mostly curious about is…how soon will Cinder turn on Neo?
If Neo successfully becomes the Winter Maiden, there is no way Cinder is going to allow her to hold onto that kind of power for long. If Cinder attempted to steal the Spring Maiden magic back in V5 then Cinder will definitely do the same thing for the Winter Maiden magic.
In her megalomaniac mind, Cinder believes all the Maiden magic belongs to her. Neo, despite being her perfect little pawn for now, is no exception.
So my hunch is that Cinder will use Neo for as long as she needs her to. Use her to steal the Winter Maiden magic from Fria (since she’s best person for the job). Use her to kill Ruby and if that fails, she’ll use her to claim the Relic of Creation just for the sake of killing Ruby via Fallen Kingdom at the expense of all of Atlas and Mantle.
And once Neo has done Cinder’s bidding, she’ll kill her off. Or…at least she’d try to and possibly fail.
Do you know what would be the penultimate perfect poetic irony?
If Cinder tries to double cross Neo but Neo manages to outsmart Cinder first.
And not only does Neo manage to survive the Fall of Atlas with the Winter Maiden magic still in her possession but what if...she also makes away with Relic of Creation. Upon learning the abilities of the staff, Neo attempts to use it for the single purpose of fulfilling her greatest wish—bringing Torchwick back from the dead.
Imagine if…Neo uses the power of the staff and Torchwick is brought back but…not exactly. Like all the staff is able to do is recreate or rather replicate Torchwick’s likeness making a perfect replica of his original form but…minus the part of Torchwick that made him the man Neo knew and loved—his soul.
So what Neo basically ends up with is a soulless husk that looks like Torchwick but isn’t him since he doesn’t recognize Neo. However Neo doesn’t care. All that mattered to her was that Torchwick was back with her again. Even if he was just an animated yet empty husk of himself who needed Neo to mostly look after him all the time, Neo didn’t mind. She would’ve happily looked after this version of Torchwick for the rest of her life just as he did for her so long ago.
Basically picture part of Neo’s story mimicking Salem’s from the Lost Fable. The tragic tale of a young woman whose life was changed for the better through the companionship and love of a man who freed her from her isolation and loneliness. Only for her to lose that man.
Let’s say…even though Neo thought revenge was all she needed to rid her of the pain she felt from losing Torchwick, I definitely like the idea of Neo switching motives after somehow learning of the true power of the Relic of Creation and what it could do for her.
So gaining it’s power, no matter the cost, becomes Neo’s motive outside of working with Cinder. So it’s no longer Cinder using Neo to gain what she desires but Neo simultaneously using Cinder to get what she wants as well—only unlike Cinder, Neo is more discreet than the Fall Maiden.
And what could be interesting if that aspect of Cinder—doing whatever you can to look out for own desires—is what rubs off on Neo and what she ironically ends up using against Cinder in the end.
So basically, in the end, after using the Relic of Creation to bring him back, Neo takes Replica Torchwick and together the two go into hiding— taking refuge in the desert sands of Vacuo in the hopes that they would be able to build a new life for themselves while avoiding certain people who Neo believed might come searching for her.
Since Ironwood mentioned that the Staff of Creation can only be used for one purpose at a time, let’s say—the only way Neo could keep Replica Torchwick alive is with the Staff itself. And once she used the staff to create Replica Torchwick, she couldn’t use it for anything else again. So pretty much, as my concept says, the only thing keeping Replica Torchwick alive was the Staff.
Who knows? Maybe in order to recreate Replica Torchwick, the staff was absorbed into his cloned body resulting in the Staff of Creation somewhat becoming Replica Torchwick. Or at least its seemingly unlimited power became Replica Torchwick while the staff part of it was rendered useless.
Now I know Neo stealing both the Winter Maiden magic and the Relic of Creation to run away to Vacuo to play house with a replica of the man she loved recreated by the Relic itself sounds mighty stretchy for a headcanon.
But nonetheless, y’know what? I really, really like it. I don’t usually share Neopolitan Headcanons so this one’s going to be another rare keeper for me like my Red Queen Cinder Fall Headcanon.
After the CRWBY brought Neo back into the story, this squiggle meister had no bloody clue what they were going to do with her after she was done being used as Cinder’s pawn.
I mean I’m not that big of a Neo stan myself. As a matter of fact, the one thing I loved about Neo’s character was her relationship with Torchwick courtesy of RWBY Chibi warming me up to the Froyo pairing.
All the more reason for me to love my headcanon of Neo making away with Relic of Creation after the Fall of Atlas and using its power to bring back Torchwick in a way to that she can live the life with him she always dreamed of having.
Her own happily ever after that she forged for the two of them—no matter the costs.
I know its not likely to happen in the canon. However I think it would’ve been an interesting way to give Neo a story that was influenced by the people she worked closely with in her life but still her own, y’know what I mean?
A story that she took charge and molded for herself and wasn’t mostly just her being an accomplice to another villain...again.
I mean if I were a CRWBY Writer and was tasked with crafting a story for Neo following her return in V6, this is probably where I would’ve gone with it as my own interpretation.
Plus from this, I really dig the thought of Ruby meeting Replica Torchwick and harbouring a bit ofanimosity towards him because, of course, the only memories that the little redrose has of Torchwick were the ones of him being a cold-hearted criminal whoaided Salem in the destruction of her former huntsmen academy and tried to kill her and her friends on so many occasions.
However ReplicaTorchwick, being only a copy of the original Torchwick in face, has no memories of either Ruby orthe crimes he committed in his ‘first life’.
Asa matter of fact, thanks to Neo’s nurturing, Replica Torchwick is a much kinder,compassionate man than the person Ruby knew him once to be.
So it’s a scenario whereReplica Torchwick meets Ruby and tries to chum up to her but because she onlyknew him as a criminal, it makes it difficult for Ruby to feel nothing but anger towards the man.
And I like this ideasince it plays off of reliability with Oscar. I mean he of all charactersknows what it’s like to shoulder the responsibilities and of course, the blame forthe repercussions of actions committed by his own past selves.
So in this scenarioI can picture Oscar being more sympathetic with Replica Torchwick and helping Rubyto understand where the doppelganger is coming from. Not to mention that I can see Oscar being the one to convince Neo that Replica Torchwick isn’t the man she once knew.
After all, for my story, once the heroes find Neo and Replica Torchwick in Vacuo, Neo will be forced to give up the happily ever after she had tried desperately to build for the mere sake of stopping the end of the world from the Wrath of the Gods, the Plight of a Second Great War of Remnant and perhaps even the Rise of Cinder Fall after she becomes the Red Queen—the new leader of the Grimm in place of Salem who was defeated and purified of her darkness by the Rosegardening Rosebuds—at least that’s how it is in my version of her fate.
And who knows? If I was in charge of writing Neo���s story, I’d do this and still find a way to give a silver lining to her unhappy ending that fits into the pre-established rules of the canon.
Like let’s say—even though Neo had to give the Winter Maiden magic back to Oscar (still sticking to my headcanon of him revoking all of Ozma’s magic back from the Maidens starting with Cinder)and ‘kill’ Replica Torchwick to return the power of the Relic of Creation—in the end, she still gets to continue the life the two made together in the most unexpected way.
While Replica Torchwick might not have been a good example of creation—the life he made together with Neo inclusive of the unborn child they conceived together was creation. One built on love.
But y’know…these are all mostly just my ideas and I’m not a CRWBY Writer---probably thankfully so. Still it would’ve been cool to see some of these ideas done. Probably not all. But some. I really like the idea of Neo becoming the Winter Maiden and taking the Relic of Creation for herself. I think that would’ve been a cool twist especially on Neo’s part.
Anyways, sorry for going off on a headcanon tangent Mizu. Overall, in a nutshell, I think your theory of Neo becoming the Winter Maiden is pretty interesting Mizu and I can see it being a possibility. Those are my thoughts on that, for now.

Oh do you have names for his alters? If he has OSDD?
Oh! Yeah, they all have names!
The kind of OSDD Kokichi has in the AUs where it applies is OSDD-1A, meaning that the alters he has have distinct memories and there is amnesia, but they aren’t too distinct from Kokichi or one another. They are different “versions” of him.
There is, of course, Kokichi--but since he’s the “host,” I’ll just elaborate on the others :’D
Here are the alters that he has in the AUs where it applies:
Yuuki Ouma: (For those of you who remember, Yuuki is actually the final name for “Rem” from the beta versions of this concept) The main alter aside from the host (Kokichi) and while I definitely need to find more research on it, if it is applicable, Yuuki is a kind of “protector” alter. He does his best to keep the system safe, but this within itself has a double edged sword. Yuuki, in cases where Junko is the one to break Kokichi, is more susceptible to becoming a Remnant of Despair, as he doesn’t have the same extreme repulsion to violence like Kokichi does, and instead has a higher resistance to pain and even torture. He’s not afraid to resort to violence and even killing if he is lead to believe it is necessary. In the Remnant of Despair verse, Junko convinces Yuuki that the world is such a rotten, terrible place where everyone is suffering and there is no salvaging it. Combined with the torture he experiences under her hand, it breaks him into thinking that the rest of humanity should be put out of its misery, and becomes a Remnant. In a verse where he is saved before that, however, his only sin is killing Kenshin (and TBH that shit stain deserves it lbr)
Yuuki is a pretty timid, quiet person with a slight playful side, and an instinct to help those who are suffering (which when flipped on its head, includes mercy killing, ala the Remnant verse). Yuuki is almost like a creation of someone strong and able to protect others, something that in these situations where Kokichi becomes a system, he believes he cannot. This Alter may also take on the fake personality Kokichi and Kurochi make to pretend they are triplets, or is based off of that.
Koko: Koko is simply the child alter, a version of Kokichi from when he was four or five. He’s very affectionate and playful, always curious and asking things and getting into childish mischief. Often when fronting, Koko forgets he is not a baby, so he’ll sit on people and asked to be picked up often. Out of all the alters, including Kokichi as the host, Koko is the one who can essentially pull anyone from the front and front himself, if he so desires. He does scare easily, but can try to put on a brave face. If Koko was to stem from anything from Kokichi, it’d probably be Kokichi’s desire to have that normal childhood that was ripped from him. Living in a world of peace and fun, not a worry to have. He’s named after the English word “Cocoa”, which may or may not be the first English word Kokichi ever learned.
Koki Oshiro: Koki Oshiro is an alter that is quiet and prickly, often more interested in studying or reading text books than socializing. He is the child Kokichi believes Kenshin wanted out of him--quiet, obedient, studious, anti-social. However, Koki is quite attached to Koko, seeing himself as an older brother of sorts, and is often the one convincing Koko not to forcibly front all the time. He thinks Kokichi is irresponsible and thinks that, in Remnant verses or AUs when Yuuki has committed a murder, Yuuki is dangerous. He is very logical, but has little else to him. Again, he is supposed to represent what Kokichi thought Kenshin wanted him to be, which makes Koki a pretty boring, flat personality. He takes on the nickname Kokichi hates, as it was the nickname Kenshin used to fake affection for his son.
Mizu Hopps: A new addition to the gang, Mizu is another child (about seven or eight) that represents a different form of Kokichi--or, rather, the personality he projects onto his childhood toy, Mr. Hopps. He’s very quiet, polite, and soft, often when fronting (if at all, he rarely fronts) is seen nibbling on things like carrots or cookies. Really into food, is very sad he can’t taste things. He is very shy, but also trusts a bit too easily. He really doesn’t like it when people touch his head or neck, and he is very easy to startle--but unlike Koko, won’t hold his ground and will run away.
And that’s all I have so far :’D Do let me know if anything I’ve said might be inaccurate though, it’s still a wip ofc

{.The Morning After Remains the Worst.}
There’s a weight on my chest and a tossing and turning that remains. The more I try to ignore it, the heavier I feel. There’s this scratchy feeling in my throat and suddenly... suddenly...
I just can’t breathe.
My hands shoot up for something, someone. Never been a person who needed or even wanted help but at a time like this I realize how messed up it is to be alone. My head is submerged. A salty taste. Water. Falling... darkness.
“Ugh... gh...”
I can’t remember sitting up but I’m clearly up now. My hand’s all clasped around my shirt and I’m desperately, desperately trying to find a way to breathe. You can just... stop breathing when you’re asleep like that? Damn, that’s... that’s something, alright.
Images of what happened yesterday roll through my mind... seems like the film was even going while I was asleep. I imagined Hanji’s execution so much I felt like I was in it.
Still, to get betrayed like that. And... to die like that. All of them... geez.
I run my hands through my hair and just look down at the floor as if there’s a clue in the dust that’s amassing. My breathing’s still coming out funny and it’s hard to move. The burning in my chest is proof enough all this crap is real and it’s a little hard to deal with that. Her face comes to mind.
Anzai. Anzai. Anzai.
Satoko.
Her, especially. Why did she die like that? She was... she’d been such a good person. Someone I actually...
Whatever. It doesn’t matter... I can’t change it. And I’m awake now. The gasping’s stopped. I’m alive. Maybe I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed but I don’t really see the point in barricading myself in here. That kinda spoiled self-pity... I don’t see the use. Even if I sulked in here all day, they’d still be dead. The accusations thrown about have been thrown about already. And the bad vibes’d still be here, I’d just be slapping my hands over my ears.
Besides, given that stuffed fat idiot’s got that ‘gotta eat together’ rule and stuff doubt I’d be able to get away with just hiding anyway.
It took more effort than I thought it would to get myself up and off the bed. My breathing was okay but that rock in my chest had found its home and had no intention of leaving, I guess. I think I’m moving normally but every gesture feels laboured. Whatever. As long as I’m moving. Getting somewhere. As I’m going downstairs, I cast a look over to where the lounge is. Daisy... is she still... gonna be there? I feel my eyes burn a little and I shake it off, continuing my journey down to the kitchen.
There was a rule about eating together but... what about Anzai? Would she still be...?
Damn it, every time I closed my eyes I saw her there. I didn’t... even really know them well. I’m not sure I wanted to. I know I’m not the friendliest guy but still... dying among strangers like that... dying alone... it’s messed up. I blank every time I think about it.
I arrive at the dining room quicker than I thought and my head snaps up when I realize I must’ve auto-piloted myself there. Seems like I’m not the last one here; there’s no sign of Yuunagi, Nagase, Manabu, Mikiro or Rie.
... Nor that other girl, if I didn’t just hallucinate her.
“Sh...zu... mizu-dono!“
Whoa. Did I just zone out again? God, I need to get a hold of myself.
“Sorry, I was... elsewhere. What?”
Buki looked at me with a kind of firm severity I wouldn’t have thought. She gesures to a chair. Everyone around the table, aside from a couple of people looked some form of dead inside.
“Sit!”
“Huh?”
“Sit, Shimizu-dono! You will have no energy if you do not consume your nutrients!”
Is she... talking about food?
“You might as well just give in. She’s not going to take no for an answer.“
Kumatani looks... pensive, I guess. Patchnuki probably had a point earlier; it’s pretty messed up to think about but... the guy... he’s no stranger to murder. I can’t imagine it gets any easier though. Since there’s an empty seat by him, I decide to take it. Somehow he feels... more grounded than the rest. I dunno. He gives me a smile and ruffles my hair.
This... must be a habit of his, huh.
“I think this is her way of dealing with things. She woke up very early... been in the kitchen ever since. When you’re busy, you don’t have the time to think about things as much.“
Yeah, this is definitely weighing on him. But he’s putting on a brave face.
“But... I still can’t believe it...”
“Kuma-nii... is this going to happen again?”
“It won’t!”
I did think he’d been a bit quiet. His body language was tense but his face... I dunno, he seemed determined.
“What happened to Anzai-kun and even Wakatsuki-kun was a tragedy. But it won’t be repeated. With togetherness, nothing will hurt us!“
His voice got more and more inspired towards the end but somehow I doubt anyone was convinced. I knew I wasn’t. The sloppy way we handled the case in general was still nagging at me. I wonder how much we missed, how much more we should’ve asked Hanji before...
“S-so-so Hanji-san d-d-de-deserved to d-d-die?“
“... I don’t mean it like that. Obviously! But... if you commit a crime... if you do that sort of heinous thing then...“
“Then you deserve death. That’s what you’re saying. Don’t beat around the bush: anyone you disagree with deserves what they get, right? ‘Cause they’re not forthcoming, ‘cause they’re not as lily-white as you’d like. If you had your way, I might be dead right now. You ever think about that? What could’ve happened if you voted wrong?”
Ogawa probably didn’t even want to be here given the look on her face. Seiyama edged closer to Kumatani. He did look kinda... off. With a clatter of cutlery, Shiratori gets to his feet and jabs a finger in the snowboarder’s direction.
“Listen here! You, at any point, could’ve made this simple! You lied, misled us, derailed the investigation and almost let the killer get away. All for your own self-satisfaction! I apologized for the accusation already and yes, I may have been hasty, but take responsibility for your own actions!”
“Can we... not fight right now?”
“Y-y-yeah... c-c-come on...”
“Ha! That’s rich! What apology? Did you fabricate that, too? Just admit you don’t care. All that matters is you and YOUR sense of justice! You wanna talk about self-satisfaction? Why not look in the mirror?“
“You two, that’s enough! Is this really the time? I understand everyone’s stressed but tearing into each other like this won’t help anybody.”
“So what’s your suggestion then, big man? It’s real easy to say ‘this won’t help’ but you don’t have the first idea what will! Stop forcing your dumb ‘friendship is everything’ crap on me. I don’t want to work with you-- any of you! You’re all capable of anything. And if you get in my way, I WILL kill you.”
"This isn’t on me! You hear this? She’s impossible! I’m writing that up as intent.”
“You can write a--”
“I SAID ENOUGH.“
The big guy rose to his feet and glared down at the pair of them. He was probably the biggest guy here though Rie might be a close second. With her absent though, there was no one to challenge his mass or height which he deliberately showed off. Once he was satisfied with the silence, he sat back down and offered Seiyama a pat on the head.
“Honestly... this situation is bad enough without the two of you going at it. Is this really what you want to do with your time?“
Ogawa’s silence speaks volumes. Everything from her scowl to her folded arms screams ‘don’t talk to me ever again’. On the other hand, Shiratori seems... surprisingly aware and he bows his head.
“You are... quite right, I suppose, Kumatani-kun. Causing a scene first thing in the morning is... there’s no excuse. I’ll reflect on it.“
Ugh, the quiet that stretched out after that was killing me. All this negativity was making the food taste crappy. Hell, I could barely finish some of it despite it being pretty good. Something was blocking it... felt like a fish bone or something in my throat. The clinking of utensils and plates was beginning to grate on my frayed nerves.
“I kinda... hesitate to ask, but... since we’re all here... what... about Anzai... she...”
There was really no easy way to ask what happened to her body. I was as vague as I could be without saying ‘hey, where’s the corpse’. Hopefully that was enough of a queue.
“... It was gone. Ranger-chan’s, too. Not just the... bodies. The whole area was cleaned. Like it never even happened.“
“B... but--but... it d-did. It d-d-did happen.”
“... Yeah, it did...”
And there’s the silence again. Maybe I shouldn’t have asked but not knowing would’ve killed me.
As my head falls further into my clenched hands, the door swings open and we’re greeted to the confident gait of that weirdo from yesterday, with Yuunagi and Nagase trailing behind.
“I’ve arrived!“
Why is she so goddamn chipper?
I decided to be a little petty and turned away from her and the door to talk to Kumatani again.
“Did you ever find out anything about that?“
“Hey! Hey, hey, hey you! I’m not that!”
“Someone who cannot vouch for their own identity has no right to speak on the matter.”
Oh, that was unexpected. The girl simmered and flounced into a chair, her arms crossed. Yuunagi and Nagase followed suit, both looking as if they’d seen better days.
“Sorry, Shimizu-kun. She... really doesn’t seem to remember anything about herself so I couldn’t find out much. I had her stay the night with Maki-chan and Nagase-chan... she might be suspicious but there’s no reason to treat her like a criminal without just cause. She doesn’t have an ID like us so she can’t get into the rooms, I just figured... well, if nothing else, better we keep an eye on her than not.“
I nodded but the person in question sniffed indignantly.
“You’re all talking like I’m not here! It’s rude, I say, rude! Jealousy? Is it jealousy? I can’t help that I’m of a higher class! No more than the... than cheesecake can help being delicious!“
Maybe on a good day I’d be able to banter with her but y’know, after Hanji and everything... I just find it impossible to indulge. Yuunagi glances up over at me and tries on a weak smile.
“She’s been like this all night.”
“I’m so sorry.”
It seemed like this kid was going to be a mystery for a while. The rules of this house didn’t apparently apply to this girl but whether that was a boon or not, hell, I had no clue.
In between dull silence was Chiffon’s voice, chattering away, and Shiratori’s, barking out this plan and idea or that one. Honestly I tuned them both out. I was being a jerk, I know, but I really didn’t care. Maybe later. Maybe tomorrow I’d be okay.
The remaining people took their time to arrive but well, everyone came in the end. I eyed the seat Anzai was in before and sighed deeply. She was gone. Daisy was gone. And Hanji was gone, even if Chiffon had taken his chair. I wasn’t sure how to feel about any of them. I don’t know, even if I didn’t like them or know them as people something felt off with them gone. And I had no idea how to replace it.
Buki just kept pouring on more and more food. I didn’t really see her eat anything herself, though. Understandable, I guess, but with her looking as shaky as she did that seemed pretty dumb. ‘Everyone copes in their own way’ so says Kumatani but I’m not sure I’m coping much at all. As soon as people can leave, they do, really, with Ogawa and Nagase being the first ones to scuttle elsewhere. Poor Nagase had barely said a word before she’d left.
“I don’t understand those people... now more than ever, we should be united, should we not?! Am I wrong?”
“N-n-no! I th-th-think think you’re right...“
“Right... and yet something is missing! Nobody’s listening! What exactly am I doing wrong here?!”
“... Nadeshiko-chan said it before, right? ‘You should take care in how you appear to others. One cannot trust a man who enforces without consent‘... that’s how it went, right? If all you do is bully people, nobody’s going to want to be around you.”
“Who’s a bully?! I’m against bullying! I... l-look, listen! We all have those secrets still, the weapons, the hidden pieces of evidence. We can wrap up this whole situation if we just share it all. Once it’s out in the open, we can calmly go through the evidence, find the culprit and be done with all this!“
“You have made so many baseless assumptions I legitimately do not know where to start.“
“I admit it’s not ideal but we have to begin somewhere! We start by suspecting everything, everyone. And then, one by one, we remove those doubts! If we could just work together, be honest...!”
“What if that just drives an even bigger wedge between us?“
“I want to get along, but how am I supposed to know I can do that? Sometimes the more you know about someone, the more you hate them. Maybe Tanuki-chama’s counting on that.“
“B-but maybe...”
“Maybe this, could be that. At the end of the day, that’s where we’re stuck at, right? Any decision’s risky. Somehow pretending your way’s the best way’s just going to make you seem more annoying.”
“I think... the best course of action for us all is to let things be. I doubt anyone’s particularly bloodthirsty about now. We’ve seen what can happen. Forcing people who don’t want to be here to talk it out is just going to stoke the flames. People need some time to think this over. Maybe we can talk about it later... but right now... the timing’s just bad. You get that, right?“
Shiratori looks like he does but he also kinda looks like he hates that he does.
“I’m... I’m going to make a plan! I’ll expect you all to read it thoroughly!“
Ah, he didn’t listen. He didn’t listen at all.
He clattered out of the room like a bull on a mission. Those that remained kinda drifted this way and that, with Kumatani making sure to keep an eye on Chiffon. I’d zoned out so much I missed most everyone leaving and found myself the last one there. With a huge sigh, I lean back in my chair and stare up at the ceiling. This fancy house with nobody in it... and now with no real owner to boot, I guess. Hanji murdered his parents, that’s what he said, right? That... that scared the hell out of me. How many times had I had those thoughts? I convinced myself they were just thoughts... they’d never leak out so I’d never hurt anyone. But if an upright guy like that can do it, why not an idiot like me?
I clenched my eyes shut. A knee-jerk reaction to the bad thought I guess. But shutting your eyes doesn’t shield you much from your own head.
It’s possible I’ll mess up. That’s so scary.
I know I’m a screw-up, too. Never had much direction or plans or anything but... I don’t want to die, I’m not ready for that. I’m not ready to take responsibility for anyone else’s life, either. Can I be sure it’ll always be like?
Whatever. Whenever I’m alone I end up thinking about this sorta stuff. No... whenever I’m not busy. I gotta find something to do, someone to talk to.
I’ve got to stop thinking about this.

Brothers anon. Sorry about the previous ask I get nervous easy and feel like I need to check im not annoying anyone at times. If I am ever annoying you though or you want me to do anything though please tell me!
Watson is close to everyone from the group, because he's seen as the dad figure and an easy person to talk too. Besides from that Jackie and Grievous are close and often train or play games together, and Jackie and Ran are close, they don't do much expect just hang out and since their both the youngest that helps them feel a bit closer. Ran and Grievous aren't really close, though Grievous wants to make attempts to become closer to Ran, potentially by inviting him to training sessions or game nights.
The other fighters from the Pit are still around! They mostly aren't around the Pit as they have jobs and other stuff to take care off, but they try to vist often. Like Genevieve and Levi come over on a regular basis to train with them all and just hang out. And sometimes Genevieve and Levi participate in the Pit's fights just for fun.
He was kept in a room in Mizu. The room was reminiscent of a jail cell, with no glass in it, and a door that required a key to be opened, he wasn't completely chained down but they did put cuffs on his wrists to prevent him from moving around to much. Benjamin honestly just kind of felt like something was off, because most people don't commit mass murder without a reason and he couldn't find a reason for Ranbob doing it. And he has reported multiple times (along with the others) feeling a strange weightless feeling near dreams room, almost like their getting sucked into a void, while also hearing a distant voice in their head calling them to come closer. When everyone said they heard the voice, with Ranbob even saying from where he was that he heard the voice but much clearer, and sometimes he feels like he doesn't control what he's doing. Benjamin and Isaac decided to block off the room and nearby rooms and made it a rule that if anyone heard the voice or felt like that to report it to them and where they felt it so ot could be blocked off.
Because Ranbob said he heard the voice too Benjamin started thinking that maybe Ranbob wasn't in control and there's something deeper going on. They specifically figure out its the mask when Charles finds it and brings it up to the group, where reports of the voices and feeling come back ten-fold, and even Ranbob who was starting to show progress and become a bit more willing to talk harshly backtracked to where he almost tried to attack anyone who came into the room. So Charles quickly puts it back as far from the group as possible, with Cletus following him to make sure he actually puts it back. Later they talk about destroying it but the question of what will happen to the possession on it stops them, as what if when they break it, the possession type thing (its not actually a possession I just forget the word oop), moves onto another object? Maybe even connect to them or Ranbob?
Ranbob does learn how to sew! Charles helps him learn actually and it helps the two get close! Cletus and Isaac are forbin as of now to return to Mizu, there are talks about going back later in time but for now everyone agreed it'd be best to hang back and avoid Mizu no matter what.
Life in the house is very hard to adjust to at first for Ranbob especially, its mostly awkward and learning boundaries. But after a few weeks to months living with the fishermen Ranbob becomes much more comfortable to open up a lot. Closest to Ranbob is definitely both Benjamin and Charles, as Benjamin is the one who recognized what was happening to Ranbob and Charles is the one who he spends most time with (mostly teaching Ranbob random skills).
Even after the fight ends Ran is still incredibly mad, and when Ranbob is so much as mentioned he growls and gets more aggravated. The fishermen are mostly surprised, Ranbob did mention there was a survivor that he remembers almost killing before they escaped, but because it seemed like a sensitive topic they never pressed him to tell them more. They never would've expected the survivor was his brother though. And the gladiators are completely surprised, expect Watson, Ran told Watson his past about Mizu and his brother (because I like to think Ran has night terrors due to Mizu and Watson is often the one to comfort him). Its only once Ranbob gets taken off to the medical bay and Ran goes to blow off steam in the training area the two sides talk. Where what they've been told is shared and connections and understandings are made. And they all manage to agree to try to get the brothers at least on talking terms, so they can talk about what happened and at least attempt to fix their relationship.
They are not! Other enderman hybrids do exist but their very rare due to complexity with passing the enderman genes. Though Ran and Ranbob did have a family of 6 they where apart of (the 2 other siblings where younger than them) but not every member had enderman genes.
They do notice how Jackie looks similar to Tubbo but they mostly just brush it off, as if Cletus takes off his head gear he looks like Quackity and of course Ranbob looks like Ranboo with the mix of black and white skin.
Hey, don’t worry about it, seriously. I do the same thing with people, so I kinda get it. I really do enjoy reading these, so really, I should be thanking you for sending them!
The bonds between everyone sound interesting. So Watson’s just generally the dad friend? How does he feel about that? Has he just unironically adopted all these dorks? Is it something of an inside joke? Jackie and Grievous sound like quite the combination. Honestly I can imagine these two either being very chill, or very chaotic, depending on the day. Ran and Jackie just hanging out sounds neat, what do they do together? Do they play games like Jackie does with Grievous, or do they just nap and cloud-watch, or something similar? And Grievous trying to bond with Ran sounds nice, how does that work out for him? Do they find some sort of activity that brings them closer?
I saw you mentioned Ran and Jackie were the youngest, which brings up two things. One, does the height difference remain? I’ve seen a lot of art depicting it as such, and honestly, the thought of some new fighters being tossed into a fight with these two, and A, seeing this short kid next to this ridiculously tall guy, and B, their expressions when being told Ran’s not an adult is very amusing to me.
And two, what exactly is the age limit for going into the Pit? It’s probably not incredibly young, but how old are Jackie and Ran to be stated as the youngest? In their early teens? Late? Older? What kind of rules are there in the fights, no deaths aside?
The other fighters still being around is pretty cool, how do they get along with the gladiators? I imagine fairly well, since you’ve said they hang out, but are they close with anyone is particular? And what exactly is the Pit, besides a tournament? Do people fight for money in there? Do they just fight to fight? Is it open to a lot of people?
So the fisherman hung around Mizu and talked to Ranbob? It must have been strange, seeing the change in their would-be murderer. It does bring up the question of how in control Ranbob was when he first met them. Was he relatively himself at the start, and only begin to fall more under Dream’s thrall later, or was he under it from the start? And how do the fishermen feel about this?
Actually, how young even is Ranbob? I believe you mentioned him to be Ran’s older(?) brother, but as previously said, Ran’s among the youngest of the gladiators, so how much older is Ranbob? How old was he when he was led to kill the residents of Mizu?
I believe the word you’re looking for is possibly spirit? I’m assuming? And yeah, pretty smart of them to get away from it. Do they ever end up dealing with that in the future, or is it a ‘let’s just agree to never go near that thing again.’ kinda deal?
Charles and Ranbob bonding! Very nice! What other skills does Charles have, and where’d he learn them? Actually, what’s the general backstory for the fishermen? Is it anything that could tie in later, or no?
But that adjustment period can’t be easy. As we saw, the fishermens’ house was pretty small, and for Ranbob, to go from literally being the only person there in a huge city, to such an arrangement, well. It can’t have been easy. How did it affect him, and how did the fishermen deal with it?
In relation, how did Ran deal with going from Mizu to outside it? I imagine the lifestyle was a bit different from what he was used to.
So the relationship isn’t so easily fixed, hm? Y’know, all things considered, that’s pretty fair. How do the two groups get along, once they’ve decided to get the two brothers back together? And what kind of plan do they come up with? Perhaps deciding to travel together? Or maybe stick around and fight more? How does that work out for them?
How does Ran feel about the brother that almost killed him being around his new family? And how does Ranbob feel about finding him again? Did he even think he was still kicking, or believe him to be dead?
So Endermen hybrids aren’t that common huh? Does that happen to be why Porkius was so interested in them? And are any of the fishermen or gladiators hybrids as well? Philza’s often shown with wings, and honestly, I’m curious to know if your AU’s Watson is a similar hybrid, or otherwise.
Also, how do the gladiators fight? Are there double battles and team ups? Is there anyone they fight better with? What’s their general strategy?
And how does Porkius feel about these new developments? Does he know? Help out, or let them sort it themselves? What’s going on with our resident king?

Brothers anon and ah, its just me than. Links on tumblr break half the time for me sorry bout that!
1: Mostly how it looks in the actual episode but with some changes. Its gaint, even has multiple floors, most rooms have a glass dome roof with iron railings (3-4) lining the bottom of the glass. The hallway typically have windows leading up to the roof, but the roof and both floor are a mix of materials like iron, copper, wood, and even gold. The most complex room is the Council room, which has a a higher roof than the rest, with mostly wood railings that go all the way up and lead to a circle at the top. The Council is the group that leads Mizu, they have 1 leader of every Idol to represent the different opinions of the citizens, with 1 special member that doesnt belong to any Idol, and is instead used to represent the opinions of people who either haven't chosen a idol yet, got kicked out of a idol following, and just to give a unbiased opinion most of the time. They do make most decisions, mostly those relating to topics like construction, farming, money distribution, where people can live, etc. And they also mostly agree on most subjects and don't agure, but they do have massive disagreements on topics and problems like Representation in other Cities/Kingdoms, trading, visitors and immigrants, and sometimes supply missions.
3: Situations like taking care of his siblings (I have decided Benjamin shall have siblings) and friends, and he was also put under extreme stress as a kid in school and family life, but unlike Ranbob, he managed to successfully communicate his struggle and find coping mechanisms. Also when he went off to live by himself for a bit, he was under sudden extreme situations where he had to make split second decision. So he just learned from everything thats happened to him over time.
8: Levi exists purely to make Watson and others go insane. People claimed it was made up because they claimed most events as unrealistic (like Doomsday, Techno escaping a death trial, Pandoras Vault (they believed it impossible for something to be inescapable)). Plus the fact it seemed cruel such young people where faced with such trauma that no sane person would let it happen, and the fact most historical important items couldn't be found, people claiming that they where made up (also cause if the land was that exposed to such devastation, it would've collapsed on itself). No to both of those, by this point their to far away from Dream for him to have a direct meaningful affect on the group, and while the residents of Kelalen know it was Dreams sword, the group does not know. Nope! Mizu came about years after Kelalen was forgotten about and shamed. And Mizu was only made because of the growing number of believers in the SMP history was causing disruptions in both the political sense and educational sense, so it was made to separate the "outcasts". Though Mizu eventually grew as big as most cities, and greatly civilized and advanced, though they where still often "forgotten" about and basically seperate from the Kingdom that set them up and became their own place (though not officially).
They do have a friendship! Its not super close but their definitely friends. Ranbob is definitely a worrier, he heard that two of his friends almost died he immediately goes to them and fuses over them. And when their recovering he doesnt leave their side, infact Benjamin has to drag him away from the two just to get him to eat. And he refuses to sleep unless he's like directly on top of them. Yeah, Cletus challenges Grievous to a parkour challenge over a Delta Basalt, and he happily accepts. They end up giving everyone a heart attack after Cletus slips and almost falls onto a magma block. Jackie plays in soul sand and dumps a handful down Rans shirt, Watson teaches Charles and Isaac how to make gold from gold nuggets and more Piglin culture. When Cletus is cleared to be ok and Jackie stops getting soul sand in areas he didn't even know existed. They all sit in a circle and decide what they should try first, with Ran and Watson watching carefully and preventing them from drinking anything that they recognized as harmful. But other than that they just let the others do whatever.
10: Because he couldn't use it, when Dream was a full human he used to be able to access his powers at his own will. But after his spirit got linked to his mask his power greatly reduced. To the point he relies on others for his powers, more specifically, he needs them to be exposed to him for a certain amount of time (like 2 weeks) until he can use their own essence/spirit to help his powers. When the group of people came after Ranbob left, they stayed for a long time, especially after they took the mask with them. Dream got the power back. Cause it is a "I worked to hard to give this up." Type situation. Ranbob was his first victim and the first person he had control over in decades, he considers Ranbob the puppet he was meant to have and refuses to let him go. Everyone is the nat to him, but specifically Ran. Cause Ran was the only person who survived the murders, so Dream sees him as a kill that was taken from him that he needs to fix. Everyone else to him is nothing more than an annoyance, and he's more than happy to use them as nothing more than a stepping stone to kill once he's done with them.
13: Ran is stronger than everyone else, Jackie is faster than everyone else, and Watson is more acrobatic than everyone else. Sorry can you reword "Is Jackie considered stronger than them aside from shared tactics, or is it the other way around?"? I dont completely understand sorry. Kind of, I'll say. There can only be 3 ranking members, but it can also be 2 Corporals and 1 Sergeant.
14: They where caught off guard, but also knew something must be going on due to the fishermen staying closer to Ranbob than normal. He never got too far, as he isnt very fast and Charles and both Isaac tend to be fast enough to get him. If the episode is really bad bringing him back can lead into physical fights but it rarely gets into that, as it seems like Ranbob really doesn't want to fight them most of the time, and holds himself back.
Well, I hope it’s working for you now, cause that sounds less than ideal, honestly.
1: Well, Mizu sounds gorgeous, quite frankly. As for the council having a member of no idol, what about that? People can get kicked out from an idol group? Why? Do some just never choose an idol? Also, how’s the housing situation there? Are there like, apartments on one of the floors, or something? Why does the council not really agree on outside affairs?
3: Not gonna lie, I’m rather curious. What kind of life did Benjamin lead to be under such heavy stress? Does he relate to Ranbob because of this? And what was he doing when he lived on his own to need to make fast-paced decisions? Also, siblings! What’re his siblings like?
8: He sounds like it.
And hm. There are several things I’ve taken from this.
Do totems no longer exist, if they don’t believe Techno could have survived, or did that particular piece of the story just get left out over time?
Has Pandora’s vault fallen? And why would people find it unbelievable? If it’s the future, shouldn’t they have even more advanced technology than that? Or is it simply the lack of evidence that leads them to disagreeing about it’s existence?
They don’t believe people would have been so cruel to the younger ones? Oof, um. Well, at least that says something about the future, I guess.
Mizu sounds like it has an interesting history in it’s self. How do Ran and Ranbob feel about being in a world that basically shunned the people of what would eventually become their home? Do they ever have issues when people find out they originate from Mizu, or worship an idol? From how you put it, it seems like that wasn’t really looked upon well, since they shunted the people who did it to Mizu.
Friendships for the win! Maybe not close, but it sounds like an interesting dynamic. Charles honestly seems pretty mild, and as you said, shy, so putting him with Mr.Random And Chaotic certainly sounds like something. How did these two become friends?
And honestly, it sounds like everyone had a lot of unique experiences in the Nether. It also sounds like Ran and Ranbob were probably an inch from a heart-attack the entire time, considering the shenanigans ongoing. It sounds kind of cute that Ranbob was only sleeping when he was close to them though, and it gives me the image of a giant fluffy cat, so win-win there.
10: Interesting. Was Ranbob not enough to fully return that power to him when the Fishermen first came and took him? Or did Dream just not think they’d get that far and not react in time, when he still had that power from his puppet?
And, uh, wow. Dream was certainly off his rocker before, but that’s definitely cemented now. Is anyone aware he thinks of Ranbob in such a way? Does Ranbob know? How are everyone’s feelings on that-besides y’know, ‘gonna murder Mr.Mask Man’. How does everyone feel about being considered as ‘nats’?
13: Huh. And yeah, I confused myself rereading that. Basically, is Jackie considered stronger than those two? You said they were mostly on par, because of the shared tactics, so when it comes to cutting those shared tactics out of the picture, does Jackie come out on top?
14: So the gang could tell? If I may ask, what were the tells that gave Ranbob away?

Part 2 with da angst
2: Young Ranbob did not understand at all what was going on, infact he refused to believe he ever had anything to do with the sabotages, it was only when Dream took over completely and gave Ranbob enough of his mind to know what he was doing, did he finally accept it. He tried and tried to break Dreams control and get control of his body back, but nothing he did ever really worked, and the more he tried Dream eventually began to punish him, forcing him to stop. He felt aboustely awful, like a failure, a murder, and just a shitty person during all of this. His journal shows basically all of his mental decline, it went from normal, him recording special things during the day, to semi-normal, him expression concern and fear over the sabotages and killings (with some out of place words or sentences here and there appearing half way through, showing Dreams presence), to recordings from someone with obvious mental distress (misspelled words, extreme fear, showing fear of himself, hasty writings and drawings, very obviously out of place sentences (their neater than the rest and written differently, written by Dream), and meaningless words and sentences, obviously trying to say something but not knowing how too), all they way to flipping entries of when Ranbob is in control (sadness, despair, hasitly done, regret, and just heavy sentences) to when Dream is in control (Neat writing, stating "facts", showing a level of glee). Ranbob does still have it, he actually still uses it to record what happens in the groups and how far he's come. To the Gladiators its more of a "Hey I found this thing, lets read this thing." "No let's not read the thing." "Im going to ignore you and read it anyway.". The pictures are from the current ruined state of the City of Mizu, and pictures showing Ranbob at the fishermens house, struggling to walk and even eat on his own, though a few are from before Dream ever got a hold of Ranbob.
3: The way you just said "Causally drops some trauma on them, huh?" And "Traumatized gremlins" made me laugh so much. Its so accurate and made me just think of the brothers vibing toghere before I just pop in and drop tons of trauma on them before dipping. "Ah, damn, the opponent stared me in my chest." "WHY ARE YOU SO CALM ABOUT THIS!? YOUR BLEEDING OUT!" "Oh im used to this. Trust me I'll survive...probably." "RAN I SWEAR!". And "Ranbob when did you last eat?" "Uhhh, 2 days ago I think." "..." "D-did I eat too soon? I dont have to eat for another day or two max-" "Ranbob shut up and eat." "B-but-" "If you dont eat I'll tell Benjamin." "OK ok I'll eat." Ran thinks its normal to get stabbed often, while Ranbob thinks its normal to only eat every 2 or 3 days, and to not sleep for a long time. There is one particular hunter that's been hunting him the longest, they go by Raq and are the most determined to get Ran, though they don't plan on killing him, but rather kidnapping him and exploting him for pearls. It was a bit hard at first, Ran kept having to leave to wander around the City for a bit, though he eventually successfully got accustomed to staying in one place, though he does sometimes wish he could travel again.
4: A bit of everything, him getting violent and trying to run at first. But after that it fades more into what resembles a depressive state, with him refusing to move and crying while being lost in his head. He requires space to move around but be monitored in the first state, while for the second he needs constant comfort and physical contact. The aftermath was the fishermen and Jackie staying close to Ranbob for the next 2 days, while Grievous and Watson try to find Ran after he stormed off in anger and disbelief. Ran does know what a relapse means, but during the time he believes Ranbobs relapse might be something else (like his facade faulting maybe).
5: Not long at all, while Ran is carrying Jackie and Cletus makes fun of them as Ranbob is following him, Jackie quickly points out how Ranbob is like a lost puppy, and the same thing is basically happening to the two of them, but showed different ways. (The brothers making sure their family is safe by sticking close to them).
6: By the time they travel to Subbin, Ranbob has gained like 80 pounds and is a way more healthy weight and looks much more healthier than when the fishermen first found him.
7: Their usually either getting materials, looking around the area/exploring, being taught things by someone, or sleeping. Charles was the one who revived the nickname! He called him that when trying different tactics to calm him down from a nightmare, Ranbob immediately froze and after a while started to cry, Charles panicked but Ranbob quickly comforted him, saying he just hasn't heard Bobby used in such a long time and brings back both incredibly happy and incredibly sad memories. And with permission, Charles starts using it more. Ran also freezes when hearing it, immediately going ridged and almost ripping a map he has in his hands, when asked by Grievous what was wrong, he just growled out nothing and moved on. Though he does mull over it later, conflicting emotions running all over him.
8: Helping separate Ran and Ranbob was already big for the gladiators. As most people would just watch with glee. Then when they get time to talk and make the connection between Ran and Ranbob, they decide to make a exception and willingly put in effort to bond with the other group. Also them just naturally connecting made the bonding and trust easy between the groups.
9: They do both! They keep some books, pictures, and other stuff, but sell others as relics. Ranbob mostly disapproves of them selling the items, but also knows it'll probably be best to sell them, and have them either spread the story of Mizu as a warning, or have the story of Mizu destroyed by assumptions and twisting of the story.
10: I'm thinking maybe a Wilbur decendent is inhabiting a certain town, and when the groups stop in for a break, Wilbur decendant houses them and listens to their story, and tries to help?
11: They mostly just find them, they either find them in book stores or ruined towns and cities (maybe I can put The Masquerade tale in here somewhere), a wide range of people, from scholars to plain history nerds, to books from during the time of the SMP itself to books written by seemingly no one. Ranbob finds some himself, mostly when exploring with the group. I think I misworded this! Dream is the one who compared Ranbobs journal to Ranboos memory book! Ranbob knows of Ranboos memory book but he himself doesn't see the connection. Ran feels all of the above. He is extremely ashamed and disappointed in himself for hurting his brother, he hugs him tightly and apologizes non-stop, promising to make it all up to him, and while he asks for forgiveness he also says he doesnt expect for his brother to forgive him. Once he finally sees Dream for real though he's the first one to blindly attack and try to kill em. Though he doesnt succeed.
12: No one expect the brothers where outside in the rain when they fought. So no one knew of what was happening. Its only when Ran finally joined them, but alone, did they get scared and alarmed. And when Ran admits they got into a fight and Ranbob ran off, the fishermen immediately start yelling at Ran and run off to find Ranbob, screaming his name into the deafening thunder. Grievous follows them but Watson and Jackie hang back a bit, Jackie just looks at Ran with a heartbroken expression, tears in his eyes, and asks, with his voice shaking and laced with sadness, "Why can't you at least try to accept him, you dont have to like or forgive him, but why can't you just let him heal?" "Jackie..you dont know what's he done-" "I do know! And I'm willing to help him change and recover! You can't and your his brother! What kind of family member are you?" Ran tries to respond but Jackie just chokes and shakes his head at him, running off to follow the others. Watson then speaks up, simply saying "Mate, your doing more than hurting Ranbob at this point." Before running off to follow and join the others. Ran feels horrible, even before being confronted he so badly wanted to chase after Ranbob, but was to scared too and he constantly was trying to reassure himself that he did the right thing, but no matter what, he couldn't convince himself that was the truth. And after the confrontation, Ran is taking what was said to heart and also considering running away, leaving the group behind and sparing them of all the pain he believes he causes, believing that he's just as bad a family member as Ranbob was. But he doesnt, because he feels like he absolutely needs to talk to his brother and everyone else.
2: Oh god. Poor Ranbob. He really went through it. It does make me wonder, did anyone notice something was up? His mentor? Parents? Friends? Speaking off, what was his relationship with them all? From what I know, he seemed to be under a lot of pressure, so how did that effect things, and how did Dream’s presence change that? And uh, gladiators reactions to reading the diary? Also, did they get caught reading it, or? And how did everyone in general react to the pictures? The fishermen may have taken the latter, but how did they feel about seeing Ranbob before Dream came into the picture?
3: I tell it like it is, glad to hear it’s made you laugh though. And uh, oh boy. On one hand, I definitely shouldn’t laugh at stabbing and possible starvation. One the other. Ran’s reaction. Ranbob being threatened with Benjamin. Is he often threatened with Benjamin? What exactly happens if Benjamin is told? Will Raq be causing future problems? Is Ran happy to be on the road again?
4: That sucks. Did the gladiators witness it first hand, or did the fishermen kind of realize what was happening and split off for a bit? Reactions to either seeing or hearing this happen?
5: Ranbob’s reaction to this? Heck, all of the fishermen’s reactions?
6: As he should. If he ever starts looking even slightly thin again, Benjamin needs to jump into immediate action! Also, give him a blanket and warm drink, please? Please, he needs it, they all do.
7: So not too bad, that’s good. Charles was the one, huh? Interesting. Does Ranbob like having it back? And conflicting emotions, hmm? What would those emotions be? Does anyone ever notice the nickname makes him mad?
8: So the gladiators consider that their big approval? Why’s that? Like obviously, they helped break it up, but was it something particular? Did they get between the two? Jump into the arena? What?
9: A warning of Mizu...there’s something awfully tragic about that.
10: Sounds interesting! In what way would they be able to help?
11: Scattered about, hm? So Ranbob knows about Ranboo’s memory book? Did Dream tell him, or did Mizu have a copy, or? And yay, Ranbob finally gets a hug! Most wonderful! Sad Ran doesn’t succeed in murder, but meh. Always next time, I suppose.
12: You...you were really going for my heart when you wrote this, weren’t you? Um, first of all, ouch. Second of all, also ouch. That’s all I’ve got for you right now. Just, ouch, Anon. Ouch.

Brothers anon, hope your doing well!
1: Ran feels the same both before and after Ran forgave Ranbob. He cant help but feel guilty and tends to avoid bringing up past memories incase Ranbob doesnt remember them, cause he can't stand to see the confused look in Ranbobs eyes that soon turn to one full of sadness and a sort of emptiness. It makes Ran feel awful. It also causes Ran to think that their childhood and old relationship is gone. Which particularly keeps Ran distant from his brother, because he's scared and doesn't want to redo everything if Ranbob will just forget it.
8: All of the above. Cletus is a chaotic shit that loves creating and hearing about anything chaotic. Also he has burned down a few things in the past so he is a bit of a anarchist. They just had those cards, after all they knew they where gonna travel for a bit so why not bring playing cards to try to provide entertainment?
11: I forget if I said that (if I did then I changed it) but Ranbob actually knows that Ran is most likely dead as he wouldn't survive the night, but he still has some hope that his little brother survived.
---------
3: It was scary for him but because of the sudden turn of events he didn't really have time to register his feelings before he was getting smacked around and blinded. And yes cause Ran deserves a overprotective arc to show him that his group does love and care for him even if he thinks otherwise.
10: The townspeople act rationally to defend themselves. Even if that means they start fights because their not being respectful or kind.
11: I'm not sure what they are. All I know is their the parent figure of the friend group but will also bite your ankles at a moments notice just because they want too.
14: Or Foolish just punts Jackie into the sand to protect his home from a possibility destructive teen. (I'm thinking yes to both of those, and we get to see one of the siblings embrace their enderside and just go crazy on Raq which leads to murder and trauma!)
15: For the cursing one I just love to imagine something like.
Ranbob: *accidentally knocks over a stack of books* Shit!
Baby Ran: Shit!
Ranbob: *freezes and turns to look at Ran*
Baby Ran: *innocently smiling* Shit!
Ranbob: rAN NO--
(I've decided the group for this is going to be Technoblade, Phil, Ranboo, Tubbo, Karl, and Sapnap, and I may name the sub au like Brothers + Others cause it rhymes and I find it slightly funny). Oh Foolish is going to be terrified and scared for his safety, he's gonna have two hyper active teens climbing him like he's a jungle gym. Ran didnt want to help at first because he was to suspicious of them, but when proof was provided he changed his mind, and decided to take a risk to help them, but he still doesn't trust them fully. Plus, he felt bad after hearing their story, and couldn't help but sympathize with them because he felt that lost and confused at one time, and its a awful feeling. And while he won't admit it, he's curious about Ranboo and wants to talk to and get to know Technoblade, after all he did choose Techno as his idol. When the group first visited Kelalen, they got the Orphan Slayer as a gift, and because they did express some interests in going back to Mizu to see what they can do about Dream, so they got it to help them. So when Technoblade shows off his Orphan Slayer as possible proof, Watson brings out the groups Orphan Slayer and the two exact duplicate swords (expect for some nics on the GF group's sword) take most by surprise, and serve as some proof. Ranboo brings up his memory book, and since Ranbob read a bit of it, the two are able to perfectly recite a page of the book. And Karls watch, book he has of both Mizu and the Pit, and his knowledge about all groups are also proof. But even after proof the GF group is still somewhat suspicious that their who they say they are, but eventually they come to fully believe them. Ranbob is in awe. Because his ancestor is in front of him! He can ask questions he had about the history of the SMP and finally get answers! But he is also scared, because why is his dead ancestor here? Why are there so many others? What does this mean for him? Theres so much uncertainty that its hard for him to relax. The enderman hybrids get along well enough, but since Ranbob is a anxious mess, Ranboo is also an anxious and nervous mess, and Ran is bad with emotions, they dont get along super well. Tubbo and Jackie get along well and love to share stories about their respective enderman friend. Sapnap, Cletus, and Grievous get along well and even with Sapnaps current predicament, he still joins in with jokes and pranks. Karl, Phil, Isaac, Watson, and Benjamin get along very well with their habit of leading and taking care of their friends, and because their the ones planning what to do with everything going on. Technoblade doesn't really get along super well with anyone from the GF group, but he takes an interest in Ran and Watson. Only Technoblade, Tubbo, and Phil are Ranboos haunting. Ranboo tries to get close to his decedents, and he success in some places but fails in others. The time group doesn't know about Ranbobs possession, purely because Ranbob begs his group to not tell them. But the time group also suspects that something is up, and while Sapnap and Techno want to push to find out what it is but they dont because Phil yells at them. For the fighting, Phil and Ranboo want to help but are told not too for now. Saying them intervening could make things worse. So they don't. But Ranboo breaks the rule cause he cant stand hearing the two fight anymore.
Hi, and same to you!
1: Oh, ouch. The way you phrased it, he thinks Ranbob could still forget? Does Ran not know Dream caused it?
8: FGHJK-Anon. Anon. Hearing Cletus was a bit of an anarchist, just, made my day. Holy heck. Can you imagine Quackity’s reaction to hearing that? Oh my god, that’d be so funny.
The cards are the only game they brought? Sounds like it might get boring quick. And a bored group makes for a chaotic one.
11: Ah, so it was a hope thing. Hm. I don’t think I’ve asked before- feel free to correct me if I have-, but, if Ranbob thought Ran was dead, how did he feel upon finding out he was alive-especially considering the circumstances.
-------------
3: Poor Ran. But also, yes! Overprotective arc! Let everyone go feral for the dude who’s always ready to do the same for them.
10: Hmm.
11(?): They...sound...interesting??? Honestly, I don’t think that answer settled my nerves at all, but y’know what, none of my business. The gremlin friend is whatever they are, and I will not question it further.
14: Jackie’s just getting tossed around everywhere, huh. First by Ran, then by Foolish, who’s next up to yeet the child? (Also, yay! Murder and trauma, always fun!)
15: Pfft, oh goodness. That must’ve been fun to explain to his parents.
----------------
Hey, it does rhyme! Nice.
Poor Foolish. He had a mostly nice life before Tubbo’s return, probably. Oh well. And Techno’s got a traumatized fan now, that’ll be interesting. What does he do with his new-old future sword? Duel wield? Let the GF group keep it?
Two anxious endermen and one who’s bad with emotions, what emotional pain will they cause each other?
What kind of stories do Jackie and Tubbo share? Funny ones? Blackmail?
Sapnap, Cletus, and Grievous sound like a terrifying force, and honestly, for the sake of everyone else, I hope a prank war never sparks between them and Tubbo and Jackie.
Do the leaders of the group all kind of take charge together in light of this situation? In what ways does Ranboo succeed, and in what ways does he fail? How does Sapnap and Karl not being part of his haunting effect their relationship with the GF gang, considering they all are? Do they ever become part of a haunting?
Do they find out about the possession, and if so, reactions? What happens when Ranboo involves himself in the fighting? Does it get better, or worse?
