I’ve been reflecting a lot today on the prison.
Dream asked me to build a huge prison that was inescapable, and promised me both a large sum of money and control of said prison. I didn’t accept the offer because I needed money or wanted power, but I did think that the SMP needed some semblance of a justice system.
He’d told me how he wanted the maximum security cell to be built. I built it exactly to his specifications.
I asked, “Who’s going in the prison?”
He said, “Bad people who do bad things.”
And then one day, they dragged him in. I was just sitting at the front desk with my legs on the table (it wasn’t like I had anything else better to be doing at the time), and they dragged him in through the portal. They asked me to lock him in the maximum security cell. And I did.
I said, “Funny how things work out, isn’t it?”
He just spit blood on me.
That prison was supposed to be inescapable. It was inescapable, until Techno broke in. I don’t hold anything against him, but I do wonder what possessed him to break Dream out.
I’d asked people to help look for him so we could lock him up again. Mostly people I trusted. Bad, Sapnap, Jack Manifold, Michael. I was hesitant to ask Punz to help, but he’d offered first anyway.
I knew it was a bad idea to trust him. He just gave Dream enchanted armor and weapons, he didn’t care about anyone else on the SMP.
I still have a hard time not blaming myself for what happened.
