Sometimes I Remember The Fact That C!quackity Canonically Brought Shears With Him To Pandoras Vault And

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

i refuse to use the tags/terms ‘apologist’ or ‘sympathiser’ because no one knows what the fuck they even mean

apropos of nothing, here’s a quote from a medical paper

‘for just about all prisoners, being held in isolated confinement for longer than 3 months causes lasting emotional damage if not full-blown psychosis and functional disability’

this is porn. to me.

bonus: okay you guys get it

I’ve seen some people say that pandoras vault was fine until c!quackity started torturing c!dream.

Daily reminder that solitary confinement is a form of torture.

If people really wanted to keep c!dream from hurting people, they would focus on rehabilitation, not retribution

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.

currently wondering what the longest time c!dream went without human contact was

I can make it worse- is dying of old age a thing in minecraft? Because we don’t know if c!dream can commit suicide to bring about a canon death, so did he ever wonder if he would just be left there? That everyone on the server would leave, that he would be forgotten or intentionally left behind. Doomed to spend eternity locked in pandoras vault. Without having even a clock to keep him company, because he’d destroyed it in a desperate ploy for human interaction. I make myself sad sometimes

thinking about c!dreams clock once again

Constantly throwing it away makes so much sense, beyond just as a way to see c!sam.

The constant ticking only serves to let him feel every second of his time imprisoned. To know exactly how many days he’s been locked away, that’s a torture all on it’s own. But so would ignorance. To be unsure of how much time has passed between each delivery of food rations. Are they coming further apart now? C!sam comes to give him a new clock and says its been only a day, but he’d been so sure a week had passed.

an effect of solitary confinement is paranoia. C!dream begins to suspect his clock has been tampered with. It speeds up, slows down. Surely it hasn’t been that long yet? And yet, surely its been longer?

he cares too much about this inanimate object. Anytime he realises that he couldn’t bare to have it taken from him, he destroys it himself.
