The truth

apologies

Tommy grinned. The bastard deserved whatever they were gonna do with him. Puffy did not deserve that attitude, she'd really helped him when he came out of exile. He shuddered even thinking about it. Dream really was just a fucked up bastard.

It had taken him a while to understand that he'd been suffering from Stockholm syndrome when he thought dream was his friend. Sometimes he thought back on the actual fun he'd have with the blob man.

Even tho that was all just Dream manipulating him into becoming what the man wanted him to be. He'd had fun with the man. Remembering the laughter they'd shared under the night sky hurt sometimes. But knowing it was all fake helped him through his trauma. Now it was time for Dream to get what he deserves!

"we're sorry." Both men said.

What.

"We should have realized you would never actively choose violence. we're really sorry Dream." Sapnap bowed his head in shame.

"I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions little blob. Can you forgive us?" The king asked.

Dream smiled. He truly thought he had lost them all for good this time. Without them he didn't know how to go on. They were his family, he couldn't just leave them.

So he was glad they weren't going to leave him either. Sapnap was like a brother to him, Bad like a father and Eret had been a better mother then Puffy ever was. They pretty much raised him!

Rushing forward he crushed both of them in a hug. Behind his mask a tear escaped his eye.

The rest of the server stood shocked at what they were seeing. What the hell just happened? They came here to defeat Dream and take him to prison for his crimes, and instead they're getting what seems like a bittersweet family reunion!

Quackity wasn't quite sure what to make of this situation. Dream was right but so was Puffy. Besides Dream had no right to treat his mother like that! She raised him and, form what he had heard at least, she could have very well left him where she found him.

And yet she didn't, she took pity on the small toddler and took him in. He could have starved on the streets but was raised in a castle instead. A castle with everything he could ever need! She even got him an older brother.

Gave him a home, heck it was pretty much confirmed that Eret would name Dream their heir. They practically raised the-

Wait.

That's right, Eret was the one who raised Dream. Not Puffy. Sapnap had told him and Karl all about it. Maybe Dream was right after all...

Punz meanwhile wasn't sure who to believe. Dream payed him way more then he usually asked for simple spy work. He had tried to tell the man and give it back but the admin had refused, stating he needed it more than Dream did.

But he also knew Dream could get pretty violent when threatened. And threatened he was. Who's side should he really be on anyway?

Maybe money wasn't everything, maybe he should start focusing on family more. The green blob man had asked him to consider it multiple times in their partnership. Maybe it was time to lay down his weapons and settled down, before he lost this family too.

Ranboo didn't know what to think, he didn't know anyone all that well on the server. Sure there was Tommy and Tubbo but things were obviously a bit strained between the two.

He assumed it had something to do with the recently destroyed 'L manburg and the whole exile thing that happened. Tommy still struck him as odd.

When the enderman hybrid first joined the server Tommy had been his first friend, they even picked flowers together. Then the blonde had convinced him to burn down George's house and everything after that was kinda blurry.

He remember Tommy lying for him, saying he had nothing to do with it, and then...Nothing. Next he knows Tommy's exiled and Tubbo lost his childish innocence.

He had tried to choose people, had tried to tell other to choose people, but now he sees that that was a futile attempt after all. These people could never choose other people. Dream was right, they were all to focused on themselves.

They were all to violent for there own goods.

At least Tubbo and him were already planning on leaving the main land all together.
