My Favorite Thing About The Dsmp And The Characters Is It's Such A Good Showing Of How Trauma Can Lead

my favorite thing about the dsmp and the characters is it's such a good showing of how trauma can lead you to keep doing the same things over and over because it's the only thing you know.

I'm just sitting here cleaning up my Tumblr feed by unfollowing all the accounts from previous interests. Yes, a good chunk of them haven't posted in YEARS. LITERAL YEARS. I feel old now lmao

Matching beanies! :D

TOMMY LORE STREAM RECAP… 2

(This lore stream DOES contain c and cc!Dream! Fair warning!)

The stream opens up to Tommy on the bedrock platform over L'Manberg, and he asks Tubbo to come see him. He's excited, because he and Tubbo have each other’s back. He explains to Tubbo that the reason he’s there is because today is about their roots, and L'Manberg is also their roots.

Tommy promises in L'Moonberg, they will have a bee department after they see the bee dome. Tubbo reaffirms he will follow Tommy until the ends of the earth.

Tommy goes up to the Big Innit Hotel to say goodbye to Sam Nook. He tells him that he should go and live his life in freedom, rather than watch over the hotel ruins and care for Tommy.

Tommy slept in a tree near the prison to stake out Dream, living off only bread for a long time. Tubbo mentions when he went in the prison, and expresses regret for locking Sam in prison, saying he was “blinded by rage.”

The prison is completely dilapidated, covered in plants and dirt. The elder guardians are still there. Tommy freaks out a little about the bad memories it brings. They see Dream and rush in, insisting they’ll be together.

They attack Dream, and Dream is seemingly surprised, and they team on him, until Dream pearls away and activates a trap, freaking the two out and trapping them in the lobby. They run through the prison chasing him and attacking him, protecting each other and working together.

Dream takes strength and stops playing around, and herds the two of them into the main cell, where they get themselves locked in. Dream goes inside the walls, and starts bombing the two, taunting them. Tommy has a panic attack and Dream comes in, and using damage pots, Tubbo is BARELY able to kill Dream.

Tommy and Tubbo stare at Dreams items in disbelief, before sharing them between each other. They’re more in disbelief than excited, but they do celebrate. Tommy congratulates Tubbo, and says it was all him. Tubbo says it was us.

Tommy moves to leave the prison, but says it doesn’t feel right. He says if they get out alive they’re safe, and they leave through the hidden hatch. Tommy celebrates that that’s it, and it’s ended, unaware of the two further streams ahead of him. Dream also apparently slowly got more sluggish and out of it during Tommy's observation.

They two of them decide to start a nation tomorrow, and a day after they have their happy ending. They talk to a few people, including BadBoyHalo, Sam, and Punz telling them Dream is dead in celebration and asking them to join their nation.

Punz acts excited and leads them to something he'll build in the new nation. He leads them down a trapdoor into a dark blackstone room, which freaks Tommy and Tubbo out. Tommy mines the wall and finds TNT, while Punz reveals the revival book and his betrayal. He revives Dream, and blows up the room. Tommy pauses in horror after seeing Dream.

Dream and Punz chase Tubbo up Tommy's old Power Tower. They panic and cry, and just as Dream enters the Power Tower, the stream ends, revealing next stream (which will be at 6pm GMT and is called No Way Home.)

Fun facts: Dream almost exclusively mentions Tommy and only mentions Tubbo exactly once, after Tommy.

So ideas about Tommy’s current stream…

Tommy has gone insane and obsessive. Don’t blame his ideas at all and what he wants to do, but he is dealing with so much grief and it is making him insane with unhealthy coping mechanisms.

And tubbo just wants to support his friend
