Au where Tubbo is Jackie (and not the other way around!) Jackie’s maybe 14 or so in the event, and sometime after the tales event, Jackie found himself in the past with a messed up memory, and was found on the side of the road by the sbi, taking the name Tubbo.

At some point he does remember who he was before he ended up in the past. And the whole hitman/expert fighter/war general thing is something that’s actually a lot harder to reconcile with who he is now than one would imagine it would be.

Oh, this is a really cool idea. For laughs, maybe he panicked when they asked what his name was, because he can’t remember it, and saw the name on the side of the box, and went ‘Tubbo...yes. My name is Tubbo. Absolutely, that is me, just nobody look at the words on the box.’ 

And I can imagine it would be. Being a hitman and growing up free to do kid-stuff like chase bees and wrestle with his friend probably make for two very different people, even if at the core, they’re the same. Nature and nuture, y’know? 

On the bright side, now he remembers why he knows how to pick locks and stab people in certain ways, and he remembers even more neat tricks! How useful!

Depending on when he remembers, there’s a lot of chances for different things to happen, so that’s also something that’d be neat to play around with.

Wait a second, Irish Man playing Hollow Knight. RTGame? Love them. Anyway, love all the AUs that people have made for the Dream SMP.

To be fair, fundy storyline was that he was like a Phoenix and reborn from a young age for his first canon life loss, so there was a Fundy from before, but well, they always said is harder to people to get out of something you were born in than not

O MAYBE THAT DREAM AMMNESIA THING IS HIS OLDER SELF TRYING TO GET HIM TO WAKE UP AND SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING but XD never let him outright say it so he has to get mysterious while being hunted in dream plan by this God that get ideas from what happens in this realm and translates it to to history. That's why he words it like it's a Fundy ability and because Fundy too can access and mess with this realm too

And maybe because Fundy knows deeply about this world and its tricks and how to change it and explore it at his favour XD had to make it like he was born from this history and not was trow in it, but of cource the fox boy finds the glitches and edit things on his own so to busy him XD trow to him too a lots of angst to deal with

...I like Fundy a normal amount shut up

Oh wow I’m very behind on Fundy lore. I’ve been so focused on Jack Lore and an Irish Man playing Hollow Knight that I forgot to see the other lore.

Anyways. Oh boy. The dreams being his older self trying to get him to wake up and see what’s happening? Oh no. Oh dear. Now Fundy is freaking the hell out with this. And Fundy also has a lot of angst in this to nerf him or else he’ll be too powerful.

Ben has been one of my favorite characters in the show since the first season and it pisses me off to no end how he’s treated in s4.

I really respected the show’s decision to have Umbrella!Ben sacrifice himself for Viktor because it made sense for his character to be ready to move on in that moment and to do that for his brother and his family. It was an end that did justice to his character.

But if Viktor dies at the end, and so does the whole family, then his sacrifice is for nothing. Ben saved his family at the expense of his own existence for what reason? So that they could live a couple more years and die anyway in the series finale?

I enjoyed the new take they did with Sparrow!Ben as a version of Ben who grew up without the mess and love of the Umbrellas and how much that changed things because it was a compelling concept—which had no pay off in s4.

Why did the show bother establishing Sparrow!Ben as an asshole that was also desperate to belong and be liked, as the guy who whined about not being invited to Luther’s bachelor party and asked Klaus why the other Ben was so much better?

Why did we go through all this story arc if he ends up exactly the same in s4? Ben is still pushing everyone away, still considering himself to have no family and no friends, still thinking of himself as a bad person.

I thought we’d get to see Sparrow!Ben clash with the others in order to show them he’s not their Ben. And it would have been so freaking satisfying to watch the siblings accept and understand he’s his own person and decide they want Sparrow!Ben in the family anyway. That would be an emotional conflict I’d care about, not the bullshit insta-love the writers pulled with Jennifer.

What was the point of Sparrow!Ben this season? He was used to being a soldier, but seemed desperate for a family last season—a family he immediately rejected when it was offered to him in s4.

He died a horrible death and had no control over his own body at the end. He didn’t even become a stupid flower in the new timeline. He just ceased to exist—all alone.

With no family or ties. No hero death. Why did the audience spend 2 seasons getting to know this new version of a well liked character if the show did absolutely nothing to take the story to any decent conclusion?

Both Umbrella and Sparrow Ben are just erased from the narrative because the show didn’t even bother including them in their stupid collective death ending. 4 seasons of Ben’s death haunting the narrative and the Hargreeves for this?

I’m ranting like a deranged madman but that’s my main takeaway. What a waste :/

to give you guys some hope here are things i liked about s4 umbrella academy:

diego and luther having a silly little adventure and just being brothers

viktor finally getting closure with reggie

allison getting claire back!!

gene and jean being the coolest fucking characters of s4, truly they reminded me of s1 tua with their quirkiness

the light shed on viktor and ben's relationship - and how viktor was so adamant in helping ben

like... ben is literally in the same position viktor was in s1. feeling misunderstood by his family, alone, confused, not accepted, being feared of. and viktor understands this completely because he's been in this exact situation before. (they could have emphasized this better but-)

LILA GETTING HER FAMILY BACK!!!!

diego knowing punjabi because that's the native tongue of lila's family

luther being his usually, silly, himbo self ("i'm a professional dancer!!!!")

diego doing That Thing with the bullets

lila's laser eyes??? badass af

the weird subway thing and five's deli with all the different fives (council of wells much?)

klaus getting kidnapped in true klaus fashion... AGAIN 😌

and some other things i cant remember

it's about how jinx was always perfect in silco's eyes. it's about how jayce always loved viktor because he was imperfect. it's about jinx saying, "i thought maybe you could love me like you used to, even though i'm... different." it's about viktor saying, "i am more than i ever was." silco bringing jinx back to life after she tried to kill herself on the bridge; jayce bringing viktor back to life despite his promise to destroy the hexcore. it's about jinx's "looks like you got a couple" cutting to the core of viktor's obsession with curing himself, and viktor instantly parrying with "you have much to offer this commune, powder," a stark reminder of the child she no longer is, the child people won't stop recognizing her as.

vi accusing jinx of murdering powder. jayce snarling that his partner died in this room. vi's lesson being that she has to accept jinx for who she is now, who she has the potential to be in the future, and to stop letting her grief for powder eclipse her love for jinx in the present - jayce's lesson being that he has to experience the world through viktor's eyes to really understand him, and then he has to show viktor how he has always seen him, and everything else only gets in the way. silco telling jinx that she needs to find the strength to walk away, or the cycle will never end. jayce and viktor ending the cycle together.

i'm always with you, sis. even when we're worlds apart. // in all timelines, all possibilities... only you can show me this.

so fucked up that alliums exist in Minecraft but not onions or garlic or anything. STEVE YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON A CULINARY BREAKTHROUGH JUST DIG DOWN A LITTLE FURTHER

Superhero/Villain au where the SBI, Tubbo, and Fundy are all heroes, and everyone else is a villain in their city. When Wilbur goes missing, Techno and Philza dip to go find him, leaving Tommy, Tubbo, and Fundy to try to keep their city afloat.

Which isn’t going so well, because not only are they vastly outnumbered, but they’re still technically in training…and the people who actually were fully trained and qualified for this just left, leaving plenty of opportunities for other villains to join the party.

Lucky for our troubled trio, the city’s resident villains, led by Dream, don’t feel like sharing, and they’re all pretty attached to their heroes. So they step in, and help out, and as the heroes get closer and closer to the villains, they make more morally grey decisions.

Wilbur eventually shows back up again, with different powers, some trauma, and quite the tale, and he fits right in with the group.

But Philza and Techno cannot say the same, upon returning to find their young proteges now toeing the lines between hero, vigilante, and villain.

Hysteric Sasuke

I can revise this moment… FOREVER

I honestly do not see enough talk of how Tilín was absolutely q!parrotduo's kid through and through. They took care of that egg as if it were their own, and Tilín even admitted they enjoyed the family dynamic. Bobby and Tilín were so sibling coded, frenemies to the core with the constant fighting augh.

But also how q!Roier has to keep seeing the kids die around him? Tilín was the first in a long streak and goddamn that was his child, he was ready to adopt them if q!Quackity didn't step up soon! Time and time again, the kids keep dying around him, and Tilín's demise was but a humble start.

Like q!Jaiden's gentleness and compassion towards a very neglected child is so important, and q!Roier's will to always help to do the quests or just share a laugh is so incredible precious. Tilín was a Familioier child.

I remember how pissed q!Roier was, the memory of betrayal burning fresh in his mind as he took a picture of q!Slime as evidence, and how that was a loss deeply felt by the family. The only egg Bobby had grown close to afterward was Richas, and even that took some time and an initially bad first impression.

q!Jaiden wanted to protect the eggs with everything she had, because she'd lost two kids by the time Bobby died, not just one.

They did Tilín's tasks, played with them, fed them, took care of them as if they were part of the family, and in everything but official confirmation they were.

AU where the different nations and settlements become personified, if cared enough for. These personifications have special connections to their residents-the leaders in particular. 

Said connections allow them to grant minor blessings occasionally, or even temporarily merge with the leaders to make them stronger so they can help more. 

Like, L’manberg comes into existence just a bit after the war begins, and everyone just really starts fighting for it’s ideals. They help raise Fundy, tend to everyone’s wounds, feel just as betrayed when Eret leaves them. 

And when their final death comes, they close their eyes, and let what little remains of them merge into the son of her creator, turning Fundy into a perma-merged, giving him both new abilities, and a hundred new conflicting feelings on everyone he knows. 

Snowchester is born a little bit before the Finale, but Tubbo only learns of her existence once he returns from it, and she is equally loving and dangerous in the name of survival as he is. 

The SMP is a deity older than all of them, but despite that, there are times where it-he seems so raw and human, they cannot help but wonder.
