I just found this in a fic idea brainstorm doc that I haven’t touched for months, and I thought it was interesting so I wanted to show you guys. I’d kinda wanna do something with it in the far future, but realistically I’m probably not gonna write anything with this, so anyone’s free to use this for themselves, as long as they give me prompt credit. (and please @ me. That’s not part of the requirement, but I’d really love to see it)
Oh yeah and I wrote this before the first OSMP reboot, so some of the characterization would have to be tweaked, but I think it’s still useable. (or I guess keep it the way it is, if you’re one of the people who implements the server and character resets into the lore as well)
Okay okay wait here’s one! How about the DSMP Bench Trio somehow gets transported to the world of the OSMP? So the OSMP Bench Trio is like, oh cool, voice dopplegangers for our pranks, muahahahaha!!! And all the other OSMP residents are just really confused. Like, these are clearly not the same species as their counterparts and clearly they have very different backstories and lives and some kinda crazy war-history, idk, but oh my god it’s still creepy how easy it is to tell that yes, somehow This Is The Same Person. And then they all start hanging out and get into shenanigans.
The Tommys are constantly trying to one-up each other like no, I’M the better one!!! And this turns into some REALLY crazy competitions. The Tubbos would probably be wary of each other at first, but then as soon as O!Tubbo mentions that he can fatally poison people just by touching them, D!Tubbo’s like, okay yeah, that’s pretty cool, but I made NUKES. And then they gleefully start plotting plans of mass destruction together. The Ranboos I think would get along in a pleasant “hey, how’re you doin’” kind of way. They’d probably brainstorm about what caused the difference in their biology (neither of them know what the non-enderman part of their genetics are). Then D!Ranboo tentatively asks so hey, do you have, like, any sort of memory problems as well? And O!Ranboo’s like yeah, sorta, I do tend to be a little forgetful sometimes, but my friends always help remind me of things. And D!Ranboo just bits his lip and quietly goes Oh. Okay. Yeah. I… I can’t always do that. I have to rely on the books. And the other’s just like What books?
And then D!Ranboo starts shakily, tearily infodumping about the Community house and the Voice and the Doomsday War and the panic room and his secret marriage and the Anarchist Commune and adopting Michael and joining the Syndicate and the Eggpire incident and the Lessons and Pandora’s Vault and the 4th Book and the revival spell and the Snowchester outpost and the Enderwalk Lab and the burger van and the meetings w/ the Council and Tubbo joining Las Nevadas. And the entire time O!SMP Ranboo is just sitting there staring in shock like o h m y g o d these kids Have Issues.
And then (probably a timeskip) as soon as Scott the Starborn accidentally supernovas again, or D!Tommy sees O!Wilbur, or D!Tubbo hears O!Techno’s voice, they all start panicking and experiencing major PTSD syptoms. So then O!SMP Ranboo goes and lets the adults know (the more responsible ones, anyway) that, um hey, these guys might need some serious help. Like, A LOT of it. So then the others do their best they can to help & things slowly but surely bet better for about 2 weeks.
And then one day a Spiderling friend of the OSMP residents returns from a journey he had been making to gather important supplies for their community. The O!Bench Trio goes to greet him & they’re like hey, you should come along and meet our really good friend, he’s alot of fun and we think you guys would get along great! to the D!Bench Trio. So they do, but as soon as they hear his voice, Ranboo hunches over, grabs onto a clump of grass and dirt like a security blanket and won’t let go, backs away, and starts panickedly muttering to himself; Tubbo freezes, stony-faced, as he stares blankly ahead and goes into emotional lockdown; and Tommy immediately loses all cheerfulness about he was talking about half a second ago, then wordlessly gets a shovel at the ready and begins flinching at every word or movement anyone makes near him.
The Spiderling is OSMP Dream.
And the sad thing is, none of the DSMPs had mentioned their version of Dream by name (people always avoid talking about what they fear the most), so O!Dream and the rest of the residents genuinely don’t understand why none of their new guests can stand the sight or sound of him without having a near-mental breakdown. The O!Bench Trio is even closest with him; O!Tommy is basically his apprentice/best friend, and even though Dream’s favorite competitor (in a friendly and all in good fun way) on a personal level is still Techno (and O!Beeduo are who Tommy spends the most time with), whenever there’s a prank war or crazy shenanigans, the two greatest contenders are always Discduo and Beeduo; in this sense, Ranboo is his greatest rival. So he (O!Dream) has a really, really hard time trying to figure out how to help these dopplegangers of his best friends who hate even acknowledging he’s there.
