16 for those choose violence fandom asks?
16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)
One dimensional, flat, Villainā¢ c!dream. it's so... boring. Reducing a very complex, multifaceted character like dream into the most storybook, children's version of an antagonist makes me want to chew glass š. Taking dream and using him as a vector for the most boring uninteresting ctommy whangst or as a scape goat to explain why every bad thing happens in your fanfiction (cough... passerine... cough). Like this does NOT deserve as many fics, posts, and headcanons as it gets. It's lame and boring. straight to jail, do not pass go do not collect 200 dollars.
*Obama voice* let me be clear. there is not a single character on that smp that is Just a villain who only does Bad thing for Evil Bad reasons. Even the Eldritch unknowable egg monster is fucking complex. There is no easy antagonist, full stop. And obviously all of us over here on this side of the Mississippi understand that because we're all adults with media analysis and super well adjusted and cool and medicated people. but in the wider fandom this Irks me
