for the fic title ask game: And the universe said "i love you"
I couldn’t think of anything so I had to put on a sad song before visions invaded my mind
But since I’m a dream apologist this is just him(Dream) moving on and getting better, how it’s hard at first and all he can do is wallow in guilt or just rage. All of his thoughts are consumed by his past but he can feel the love the world has for him even though he knows he’s fucked up and he knows that everyone hates him, he can feel the worlds love for him and it’s what helps drag him out of the darkest part of his mind and idk, finally move on. Acknowledge the hurt he’s made and get better, making sure to never lose himself again. I think it would go with like, putting time and effort into a physical object (maybe a build) and then realizing how flammable and easy to destroy it is but not focusing on that.
aha and uhm if, it somehow managed to get caught on fire cuz lightening exists? and it sets him spiraling back where he’s unreachable to the worlds love. I think that would be p cool. He doesn’t become a bad guy again but he’s back to the whole “attachments are bad,” but now there’s a sprinkle of “but didn’t it feel good, we’re t you happy for just a second?”
