As A Dream Kinnie How Many Rocks On Average Do You Eat

There's something to be said for c!Dream actually switching to c!Schlatt's side for the book. A purely transactional move: c!Dream (as even stated by cc!Dream) had no motive to side with c!Schlatt other than the book. He was just holding up his end of a deal. Even when there wasn't really anyone capable of enforcing that deal! Like, yeah, c!Dream obviously had other stuff going on with c!Wilbur behind the scenes re. L'Manberg's destruction, and he wasn't exactly giving the war effort his usual level of enthusiasm—he literally led them straight to c!Schlatt—but he did still fight! There was still some semblance of a battle, no matter how one-sided, and I'm not convinced there would've been had c!Dream not stayed.

Because c!Dream really didn't have to stay. It would've been so easy to just take the book and leave everyone to fight their battles without him, or even to openly join Pogtopia's side, but he didn't. It says a lot about his insistence on fair exchanges, deals, favors for favors. Even when his reputation as a "good person" is beyond repair, he strives to maintain that reputation as a trusted ally.

Just now seeing TVNAT au and i might be falling in love with it just a little bit.

I wanted to ask how this version of dream sees himself? As someone who struggles with dissociation a lot and happens to be guilty of projecting onto our favorite villain, I'm curious on how the lack of pain and having gotten used to "playtime" would affect how he views his body

I remember pretty clearly how such a disconnect with my body and the things it felt would make me think of it more like an object, i thought that might be something interesting to play around with. Does he think of himself like a doll, knowing how easily his limbs can come apart just to be put back together? Does he see himself as one whole or does he see his body as more of a toy?

Apologies for the long ask, tysm for sharing such an interesting concept if you happen to read this<3

Thank you for liking the AU!

TVNAT!Dream sees himself as a 'tool' and has always been a mean to an end. He doesn't treasure it in the sense that he doesn't care about the amount of harm inflicted on it, but he also adores his body in the sense that it remembers all the experiences it went through. Is it complicated? Yes, but in his mind that is how it works.

He cares and doesn't care for his body at the same time. He would destroy it without a thought but also cradle it with care. Losing his sense of pain only further fuel his dissociation.

However, it did make him extra tanky. In addition to the fact that he is essentially immortal due to the revival book, he is an unstoppable force should he decide to go after someone.

dream-core. If you even care

so bored should i stage my own arrest and get thrown into a prison i paid to have built and then get tortured beat neglected and starved but in a gay way

okay wait i’ll never get over the fact that dream trying to communicate and set boundaries was seen as manipulative but tommy making that video to “test” dreams friendship and to get a reaction wasn’t

the dsmp was good. it told interesting stories, in interesting ways. a lot of love and heart went into it. even the ending. there's no qualifiers here. it was just good and enjoyable and i'm glad it happened.

To be honest, something I see a lot in fanfiction is the reasoning for Dream’s mask being about how Dream can’t control his facial expressions well and is too readable, making him vulnerable to people knowing exactly what he’s thinking and feels. Personally though, especially now that we can reasonably say that Dream is autistic, I think it’s actually the opposite.

At least in my experience, with myself and with other autistic people, often the trouble is making the appropriate facial expression with the proper enthusiasm. Like telling a joke and people not know if you are kidding or not because you say it with such a straight face. Something I really struggle with is emoting excitement and joy so I have to be extra conscious of making sure my face is portraying how I feel so people don’t get the wrong idea.

The other thing I have to be aware of facially is eye contact, making sure to do the proper amount and/or don’t look somewhere else that makes it seem like you aren’t paying attention. (This is something I’ve realized since diagnosis that I am good at but hate, which is why I plan socializing around activities so I can focus on that instead of looking at the person.)

These are just a couple of the things on my mind when having a conversation (along with body language, tone of voice, what I’m saying…etc), that can really change how people perceive you. When not executed well people can really get the wrong impression of you, even thinking that you’re super intense, serious, a bitch, cold because your facial expressions are so stern and neutral, when in reality you could be feeling a lot of things (many people in high school didn’t talk to me and when asked later they said they were intimidated by me, and I think this might be one of the reasons why).

So, because of this, personally, I think Dream wears a mask not because he’s too open, but because he doesn’t emote properly or just doesn’t want to bother to try and emote properly, and dislikes eye contact. To not have to focus on making proper eye contact and facial expressions takes away that factor of misunderstanding and just makes conversing a lot less work and more comfortable. With a mask on, he doesn’t have to work on that part of his social masking (;D lol), now he can look where he wants and just have a resting bitch face if he wants to without worrying about how it comes across. That’s what I think is more likely the reason Dream wears a mask because he is actually naturally less expressive.

Furthermore, perhaps if he lost his mask in prison then maybe that’s a reason people in the prison are generally more cold to him and see him as less human because his expressions are so blank, giving people the perception that he’s very cold. Therefore making it easier for Sam and Quackity and even Tommy to hurt and dehumanize Dream in prison because subconsciously they are put off by his lack of emoting, which only further adds to the idea that Dream is some embodiment of evil…
