an ode to c!tommy

Syd. She/Her. TommyInnit analysis blog. Header by SADist. Ask box is always open! :)

[sydneydoesstuff]

Welcome to my blog, everyone! My name is Sydney, but you can call me Syd.

This blog is a MCYT blog, specifically dedicated to analyzing the relationships between Tommy and others in the Dream SMP.

This is a c!Tommy apologist blog, so c!Dream apologists will not enjoy the content. That being said, I do love Dream’s character, but he won’t be viewed through a sympathetic lens whatsoever.

I have a decent amount of asks, so if you’d like to avoid those and focus on where I analyze and reblog lore, the tag dream smp will filter out other posts.

Posts that are asks will always have an ask tag attached. If you’re not anonymous, I’ll have a tag specifically for you ( _____ ask). However, I understand how leaving an ask can be scary—and I love anons—so if you’d like me to keep track of you, or you want a place to locate your asks, you can leave me with an alias like “⭐️” or “bookworm” and I’ll dedicate a tag to you.

I love asks, so feel free to ask anything! Opinions on lore, how you feel today, anything! I like to give pretty detailed answers, so bear with me, as my ask box can get quite full.

I want to make this blog as easy as possible to navigate, so here’s a list of tags I frequent. I tag my posts very heavily, so if you want to get specific, you should be able to filter things out. (If you have any triggers you’d like me to tag, just let me know!) <3

Syd’s frequented tags:

Anything related to the Dream SMP: dream smp, dsmp, and dreamsmp

Specifically Tommy: tommyinnit, c!tommy, tommy

Specifically Dream: dreamwastaken, c!dream, dream

Specifically Sapnap: sapnap, c!sapnap

Specifically Techno: technoblade, techno, c!technoblade, c!techno

Any asks: ask or _____ ask

This blog is open to anyone, and it’s a safe space to be yourself!

I hope you enjoy! :)

"even when we stopped playing as much. The community... kept us going. They, started a new Minecraft era. The incredible art posted every day by you guys. The animation helped me see, reflect, and take in this server, this experience. Thank you, so much, for making that."

I'm actually sobbing over here. Cuz that's what it all is now, isn't it? There's talk about what kind of legacy this server will leave. But I think, from a meta and overall standpoint, at the end of the day, it's us. All of the art, animation, analyses, fanfics, cosplays, it's all us.

We are this server's legacy, aren't we.

“how lucky we are to be a part of this stupid miracle” really opened the floodgates for me. that’s exactly how to describe the dream smp

[snailsnfriends]

this tribute video is absolutely amazing. the editing is wonderful, it goes over the events of the smp with ease. tommy's able to mix in jokes with reality, and it's very admirable of him to be so vulnerable in front of so many viewers. he's made such an amazing thing out of a regular minecraft server. I could not possibly be more proud. I hope he knows how much of a joy it's been to watch him and his content grow.

this video is hard to watch because its so much you know so reflective so emotional so personal and of course in true honor to techno. Im so proud of how far tommy's come, i'm so proud of this story and the server. This video is about tommy, its truly his story, but its also the mcyt story it is the dsmp story too. It's about humble beginnings, to being one of the "big dogs" too, to meeting new people, to connection and love. It's about bringing everyone together. it's about the start of the server, the story, learning to write, to navigating a growing fandom you never expected. it's about lore droughts, reality, and technoblade's perseverance through it all. It's about the animatics and artists that made this server that much more exciting too.

Thank you tommyinnit <3

dsmp really was an inimitable phenomenon bc of the specific people and specific timing and i will forever be grateful i was able to experience it in real time T_T ive gained sm from this community and as cynical as one can get abt the epic highs and lows of mcytblr. i don’t really regret anything and i’m happy to still be here to see this thing through 🥂

I think one of my favorite underrated moments is when Foolish told Quackity that Slime has been kidnapped and Quackity went dead-serious and was ready to fuck up whoever had taken his friend... but then when Foolish said it was Tommy who took him Quackity just immediately went all like "Oh, okay that's fine let the boys have fun ^_^" and went on his c!Tommy defender arc.

[cquackity]

no character will ever be c!quackity in regards to showing c!tommy compassion and actually remembering past events instead of forgetting about shit like the disc finale. viceduo fucking carries and it always will. Shoutout to c!quackity for having actual character consistency lol.

bro are c!dream apologists ok? 😭😭😭

1) they realize cc!dream isn’t actually c!dream???

2) me hating c!dream doesn’t automatically mean i hate the cc?? like good lord, have some separation

3) being a dream stan doesn’t automatically = being a c!dream apologist???

4) i’m pretty damn sure cc!dream wouldn’t be calling c!dream a good person??

[proudfreakmetarusonikku]

Also… I’m a massive c!Dream stan here, he’s my joint favourite fictional character ever, and I would have cheered at that. Because I like him because he’s a cool villain. He is fictional I can do that.

[sydneydoesstuff]

Yes, exactly this.

Just because I hate what c!Dream does doesn’t mean I can’t still love his character or like the cc.

It’s not “disrespectful” to cc!Dream or his writing to hate the actions of his character. It’s good! It means he’s written a compelling character. To ignore c!Dream’s true character is to disrespect the writing.

[wasflypaw]

It's very unlikely that c!Dream will get a redemption arc based on what Tommy said, and I think its funny that people are trying to deny this fact because "cc!Dream decides that not anybody else".

Do you, genuinely, with your entire heart, think that c!Dream can have a redemption arc that doesnt involve his abuse & murder victim? Do you just think . Tommy/c!Tommy doesnt get a say?

c!Dream has spent half of his screentime tormenting c!Tommy, abusing him or killing him or chasing him or stalking him. THAT is what he needs redemption for, and you're insane if you think Tommy doesnt get a say in that

[wasflypaw]

Since I'm seeing the take go around more than I Should be: Can we please stop acting like the CCs saying negative things about c!Dream is Putting His Character Down and insulting cc!Dream/cc!Dream's writing. Please can we Not enter the territory of acting like the CCs are insulting Dream himself and "being ungrateful" because they say his character is a bad person. One person even claimed Tommy made the audience boo for cc!Dream earlier. Should I really be having to say this.

[wasflypaw]

"They're using their friends character as a punching bag to make their characters look better" cc!Dream does not need coddling his friends are not insulting him and he Willingly roleplayed the part of a child abuser. You people are insane
