//mentions of ptsd, some insanity, death, & suicide)
the simultaneous love and hate i feel for c!wilbur and c!dream is so fucking insane, and same with c!tommy
like, yes, they're both awful people, but in a way they're just so...human. their stories are so different but they're just really huma
c!dream just wants his server back, he needs control, he feels like if he doesn't have power, he's useless, he's weak. he learned that if you had attachment, you were weak, you could be controlled. he got rid of everything he had, everything he cared about, because he was scared he was going to lose power. he's just...alone? he just wants control over something in his life
c!wilbur was fighting for his country, he wanted his country back, and if he couldn't have what he built up from the ground, then no one could, everybody seemed to abandon him and he was left with tommy, a 16 year old who couldn't afford to be his therapist. wilbur spent his life building l'manberg, and when it was snatched out of his hands, he went mad, his fall was so human, and so touchable
c!tommy is only a child, he's a kid. tommy's a kid who lost his brother figure, his best friend exiled him, he was manipulated. he has ptsd from exile, the littlest things are so terrifying to him. the relationships he had, they're gone. he believed he had dream, but he didn't. he had wilbur, but lost him. he had tubbo, but tubbo sent him away. everyone on the server hated him. he had no one, he was debating suicide in exile. he has lost EVERYTHING that was dear to him, l'manberg, wilbur, henry, logstedshire, his discs, everything. but he's a fighter, and i have to commend him for that. he always fights for what he believes is right, he wants to be the hero. he needs somebody to rely on, to be there, after everything
SORRY I JUST FEEL SO STRONGLY OVER THE CHARACTERS I JUST DJUDKWJDHS
