no clue if you were asked this yet, but what are some of Ace's or Gin's hobbies?
Gin's hobbies are cooking, working out, weightligting, playing drums, and reading. Sometimes he likes to write highly complex political theories and sometimes he likes to pretend he's a chef at a famous restaurant.
Ace's hobbies are being a nuisance, theft, trickery, bribery, getting kicked out of casinos, annoying Ink, learning his 16th language, deciding to be evil for a day because he's bored, deciding to be evil to the evil doers he was working with last episode, pretending to die, grieving at his own funeral, travelling, building complex machinery, trying to start a romantic relationship with anyone significant to the story, and posing as other people's friends or significant others so he can gain insightful information and/or permanently and adversely damage their relationships for fun
If there's one thing Ink knows how to do like a normal person it's being supportive of the arts ā”
I think that Dream's power makes it hard for him to "do" emotions like anyone else. Focus on "your" emotions doesn't really mean anything if your emotions are also everyone else's emotions. What are "you" feeling when surrounded by 100 people feeling completely differing emotions doesn't particularly have any significance. It doesn't matter what you're feeling, there's 100 people you also have the emotions of. That's why Dream focusing on other people's emotions instead of his own kind of is the best option for him. It's way easier to get everyone around you to be happy, for you to also be happy. It's also why he leaves to be completely alone when he's upset and wants to concentrate on those feelings (like we see in the Color comic). He doesn't WANT other people around him when he's upset because he CAN'T process those emotions if someone else's is getting in the way!!
Not mentioned much here, but Ink and his Doodlesphere are very helpful for Dream in this capacity. Because it's just Ink, and he can control his emotions, he can effectively just control what Dream is feeling too, and Dream can also influence Ink's emotions through his aura (in my universe where I allow their powers to affect each other)
The Doodlesphere is also in the centre of it all so all the emotions become a much more pleasant background noise. It's very peaceful for Dream there, though nothing truly lets him escape feeling the broad stokes of universe's emotions. He would still be able to tell if something terrible was happening somewhere.
No, there's no way to escape from everything, but maybe
I love my friends so much right now. I am so proud of them even if i have a stomach ache from getting distracted by how proud i am of them. Aaaaarghahdjflf.
They'll never see my tumblr acc. but when i die they'll probably see it when they have to delete it at my funeral and they'll know what day i posted this on represents. I think :/c
Lmao. They'll probably forget about it cause how stressful today's event was ahahaha.
"He tried to talk with his brother because of the bruises he saw, but Nightmare lied to him. "It's okay, I just tripped, it was nothing". Nightmare's intention wasn't to trick Dream, it was to protect him. He didn't want his brother to complain to the others, who might take revenge on him. He couldn't allow his brother to feel the same pain that he was feeling" - Dreamtale, Pg 11
Little did he know, Dream was hiding pain from him as well.
But no scenario would have prevented what comes next.
Slightly out of order here since Dream already has his cape, but we'll consider that this isn't the first time it has happened and both things are progressing throughout the same time frame.
Yes, these are all their canon fears, though, I'm giving them a bit of reasoning behind them that wasn't necessarily expounded on in canon. Call them my headcanon explanations.
I suppose you could make the argument Dream got over his fear of storms since it was only ever shown in his childhood, but I think he continues to dislike them due to just how loud they are. Involuntary reaction rather than an actual held 'fear' any longer.
Dream is vegetarian in canon, yes yes. He loves animals.
Dream's canon birthday is December 21, but that's our time and our world. What would it actually be in universe? I'm not sure. I don't think he'd ever know. Just another addition to his timeless nature.
Inverse to being called a child, when he tells people his actual age, sometimes they treat him like he's super old as a joke. This also sometimes translate over to fandom discussions too, where people will also call Dream an old man when talking about him.
I would stand to argue Dream is actually pretty young in terms of mentality. Though his canon took place over the course of many years, and I could tell you approximately the timeline we have, at the point he gets his second outfit, I can't reasonably place him as anything higher than the human equivalent of in his twenties. I am of the belief his original story was effectively a coming of age story. We've mostly skipped over that, because I find his later explorations through the multiverse more interesting. We'll go back to when he was younger, too, but not right now. Ink shares an actually incredibly similar dilemma. He is also in his twenties, but he just kind of... spawned in, in his twenties, and also doesn't age. What fun with the two ageless immortals.
I still don't actually know how readily Ink can read scripts. The specifics aren't exactly explained all that thoroughly. Let's just keep saying he can...... and not quote me on that.
I also like to think Ink makes a bunch of references to media in our world. As though he knows the popular memes and /refs that creators make. He starts to catch on to them, starts to reference them himself.
That's about it.
Oh yeah, and don't sit under the one tree in a field during a thunderstorm like the two immortal skeletons
Sorry if this is a silly question but what exactly does nightmares negativity aura thingy do to people to make it so the only person he can work with is Killer?
