Looking at my published driller oneshots on ao3 I'm realizing I was just yearning for the gabV1el dynamic, no wonder it got me so bad JFNNSBF
#LET IT BE KNOWN THAT THERE'S MANY DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OF CHARACTERS AND THAT I DON'T ALWAYS STICK TO A SINGLE ONE#That being said#What if I was little more than a killing machine (even if parts of my personality shine through)#and you were little more than the role that has been imposed on you?#What if you were a strange new constant outside the cycle of violence#and what if I made you feel alive by taking away all your layers until I reach your animal drive to survive?#I wrote two driller oneshots with that kind of dynamic and then utterly fell in love with the gabv1el dynamic bc it was just that#I can draw lots of comparisons between Killer & V1#(namely that they're both short and silly af and also all the living weapon thing ig /silly)#Okay but fr tho#Tell me y'all see the vision#And then Dream and Gabriel are sorta different I'd say but#They both share the same core#Being less of a person and more of a Representation of something#(the balance & God's will)#And then. Well. Being left to fend by themselves#(Nim & Lanny aren't there to 'guide' Dream anymore & God is dead and so is the council later on)#And just sorta#I mean Dream probably wouldn't scream that you're an insignificant fuck#Nor does he really have the ego Gabriel has#But overall#There's points of comparison
