C!dreams Actions Are Bad Enough On Their Own,, You Don’t Need To Make Shit Up!!

‘this is just a mc roleplay and you control how you interact with it’

And

‘The messages in media have a very real impact on people’

i propose that no one is allowed to have an opinion on pandoras vault unless they’ve done some reading on prison abolition/reform

if someone uses all pronouns that does not mean you choose the ones you decide best suit them.

Yes this is about how I’ve only seen she/her used for Eret a handful of times.

What if:

c!dream remembers how almost the entire server watched as he lost two canon lives; and that no one said anything to stop him being murdered.

c!dream has recurring nightmares where the server watches again, but this time it’s as c!quackity takes his sanity.

C!dream becomes so sure that there are other people in the cell when c!quackity visits him. That the people he once called friends are watching him be tortured. Sometimes he sees them out of the corner of his eye, other times he can only feel them watching. Sometimes he begs for their help, pleads with the mirages his mind has conjured. C!quackity will occasionally indulge these hallucinations, pretend to interact with them, make c!dream detail exactly who he’s seeing. Other times he taunts c!dream with the knowledge of his tenuous grasp on reality, question the logic of certain peoples presence, and do anything he can to remind c!dream that he’s alone, that he only has c!quackity now.

C!dream tells c!techno how many witnesses there had been to his torture. C!techno tells him it wasn’t real, that no one could have watched his suffering and stood idly by. C!dream is so grateful, he’d been so confused when everyone, even his best friends, had done nothing as they watched him be murdered. But it hadn’t been real... right?

C!Dream affected not only by malnutrition, but but by a lack of sunlight.

When he first enters pandoras vault he’s doing, okay. Mentally and physically. Still shaken by his two canon deaths in quick succession, but he’s handling it.

But then he starts sleeping more (and it hurts because it reminds him of c!george). But sleeping is all he has to occupy himself, a way to make the time pass faster. He tries to keep his strength up, to exercise regularly, maintain his stamina, but it seems to get harder everyday. Not just because there’s no point, but physically. Fatigue plagues him every waking moment. He sleeps not because of its restorative effect, but because when hes sleeping, he doesn’t know just how tired he is.

Everything hurts. He can never find a comfortable position on the obsidian floor, but it’s more than that. His very bones ache. Muscle pain is constant, with no exertion to explain it. His legs cramp, his whole body does, despite it never happening to him previously.

When c!Quackity visits, things are worse then they should be. Hits that would have only bruised in the past now break bones. His wounds don’t heal like they used to. Infections set in easily. He can only watch as his body breaks down, is broken down, and one day he forgets what the sun looks like. Did its warm rays on his skin feel the same as the heat radiating of the lava? He can’t remember anymore.

Everything listed is an actual symptom of vitamin d deficiency! Not included is depression and mood swings. Add onto all that solitary confinement & malnutrition. 6 months of no sunlight is a Very Bad Thing.

Some people- the exile arc was harmful, it nearly drove c!tommy to suicide’

Me- ‘okay we can agree on that! And that the prison arc is also harmful because c!dream has been driven to suicide. Right?’

Some people- ‘no c!dream is a psychopath/ is incapable of feeling bad/ is only copying how c!tommy reacted/ is manipulating everyone/ deserves it.’

What. The. Fuck.

‘C!dream is a master manipulator!’

Is he really though?? He managed to get himself locked in a literal torture vault?? He didn’t realise punz was going to betray him, he alienated all of his allies.

Either c!dream isn’t great at the whole manipulation thing, or some of that was intentional

Saying that someone is worthy of torture/ it won’t affect them because they are a ‘psychopath’ is Not Cool.

When I say ‘it’s just a minecraft roleplay’ I don’t mean that this story doesn’t matter, I mean the people you’re arguing with are real, and the characters you’re defending are not

Those aren’t the only songs he has to fill the silence.

Even as his voice cracks, he begins campfire songs learnt on lazy nights with his friends. Each had brought different songs they’d picked up throughout their travels, and were a way to share some of their culture, their family.

If c!dream closes his eyes, he can pretend that the lava is instead the crackling flames of their campfire.But no matter how hard he tries to delude himself, he can never conjure up his friends voices joining him in song.

The musical tapestry he weaves is stitched with memories of those he loves, a blanket he wraps around himself, that only serves to remind him that he’s alone.

C!dream is raised by c!puffy on her ship, around raucous sailors who regale him with tales of their adventures, who sing together horribly off key, and his childhood lullabies were the songs sung by his shipmates.

C!dream sings sea shanties alone in his cell to fill the silence.

And he wonders where his family, where his mother, have gone.

The tunes don’t sound the same when sung by one voice that trembles with unshed tears.
