Finally recieved my zine!!

Can’t believe it’s been like a year and a half since I was like “what if we had a dream zine??” So much has changed. So much happened behind the scenes, so much love, effort, and frustration went into making this project whole.

I can’t thank my team enough, without them, this wouldn’t have happened. Without the contributors, it wouldn’t be what it is. 💚

I’m still new the gachiakuta fandom but I’m really obsessed with Jabber and Zanka. Also love Tamsy.

If anyone wants to chat, roleplay, bounce ideas for aus off each other, that’d be great 😭 my skin is itching to talk about them…

Don’t laugh at me….. but what if I wrote a dsmp compliant fic with c!dream x c!daquavis…. Where Dream slowly makes a come back to the champion he used to be after the damage he endured during the dsmp… with lots of healing…..

People were talking about how techza probably would have rivaled dnf if the fandom allowed better seperation of characters/ boundaries. And I’m like. NO. DNB.

Like I love emerald duo, don’t get me wrong, they’re very sweet. BUT LOOK AT RIVALS 😭 the teasing, the favors, showing up on doorsteps, being the others exception, the prison visits. LIKE GUYS.

When I first watched the dsmp (knowing nothing of the ccs) I shipped dnb. Before I even realized drunz was a thing. That was my og ship 😭😭😭😭

Idk, dnf and techza.. they don’t have the same spark. Dnf is exceptionally bland and techza just.. feels too platonic. I literally can’t see them as a ship 😭

There’s a post gently critiquing the author is a c!(character) apologist tag. It’s definitely a joke, but I did want to mention that there IS a reason we use that tag!

While I don’t think it’s quite as prevalent now, but not using those tags used to get authors attacked/ harassed. A lot of people on either side don’t like seeing the other character shown in any sort of sympathetic light, so if they click on a fic and see the “villain” character being a good guy, they’ll get upset.

A lot of us put the tags on fics just so people are aware “hey, we’re catering to the opinion that this character is sympathetic.”

I personally have watched most POV’s available for the DSMP. Tommy, in his point of view, it’s sympathetic where Dream is not. A lot of characters who are close to Tommy, also see Dream in this more villainous way. Where Technoblade and Punz show Dream differently, and Tommy is a bit more unsympathetic. They’re all grey characters and they all have lots of depth. But the tag just highlights that the author appreciates this character in particular and will often put a bit more time into making them understanding.

All of my fics are tags with that because 1) it’s a funny tag and I like it. 2) It just makes it so yeah, people seeing my fic in the tommyinnit character tag understand that Dream is not a villain in my fic.

I know this post is a joke, but it does imply people using the tags haven’t actually put in the time to know and understand the characters they’re writing… 🥲

Blocking isn’t enough, I need to fist fight them.

But seriously, why do ppl think it’s okay to harass others and make them insecure of the work they do just because they disagree with their art style or au. It’s so unfair.

The fact that both of my friends have been targeted for the things they create drives me insane!!

And then somehow (stupidly) it loops back to me because I get upset on behalf of my friends😪 Like apparently people have been told it’s “bad” to reblog my art because.. whatever reasons. And people distancing from my friends without even asking THEM for the full story. Just.. going along with what they’re hearing. I just want to defend them because they’re the best and most kindest people. They care about what they make and they genuinely love creating. So seeing people attack their creative drive to make them insecure and stop making what they do is just.. so upsetting.

But god forbid it makes me uncomfortable to have someone who hates my friend’s work be around me when I also like, consume, and create similar works. So odd.

Rant over… I just.. love my friends and hate seeing them hurt. Please go support and love them too ;-;

Western Au: Sheriff Sam x Outlaw Dream

Dream’s been an outlaw all his life, it’s all he’s known, really. He’s got a few fragmented memories of his past, he thinks he remembers his mother and father, but it’s too blurry to make out. Dream had no choice but to turn to crime, he needed to eat, he needed to survive.

And survive he did, Dream became one of the most infamous outlaws across the west, and he was proud of it too! He had his face plastered on posters in every town and anyone who dared cross his path- who caught a glimpse of his smiling mask, they knew it was the end.

That was- until he fell in love.

It was stupid really, to trust someone out in such a wild world. To be so vulnerable and let them into his deepest secrets. Really, it could only end one way. In shackles and awaiting his execution.

~

Sam was getting old for a sheriff, lifestyles that rough tended to age people. Hours in the sun and running his horse into the ground. He was a small town cowboy with big goals and a lot to prove.

So, when the infamous outlaw escapes his execution and is on the run; Sam sees it as an opportunity. To bring justice and establish his own name into legend.
