Summary
Courtly romance: A European medieval literary genre that emphasizes nobility and chivalry. Oftentimes, courtly romances are extramarital, as love was not a major consideration in noble marriages. Courtly romances, in turn, emphasize love over status or power.
Or: He was a knight. She was his king. Could I make it any more obvious?
During negotiations before the Final Control Room, Eret agreed to marry Dream in order to legitimize their position as king once the title was passed over. Arranged marriages are not unheard of, especially in solidifying power; some couples even fall in love. Almost two years later, they are… regretting it, to put it lightly. After a blowup fight on the eve of the Manberg-Pogtopia War, Dream assigns Punz, his most loyal knight, to be Eret’s personal bodyguard. Political negotiations, deeds of valor, meetings in walled gardens, and endless adventure to avoid detection ensue.

Summary
[Lights up on an office. Large mahogany desk, chair that swivels, a carpet that toes the line of comfortable and fancy. It is part biblical confessional, part reality TV confessional. Appearance wise, though, it resembles your run-of-the-mill political office.]
[Sitting in the chair that swivels is JSCHLATT. PRESIDENT JSCHLATT, to be clear about it. He looks almost exactly the same as he does in the large portrait of him on the back wall. In Schlatt’s dominant hand is a whiskey glass. With the other, he taps the large microphone that sits on top of the mahogany desk.
He knows he has an audience--conceptually, that is. He is the president, after all.]SCHLATT:
That good-for-nothing kid will never be the president.all the world's a debate stage. the candidates are only the players.

Summary
Well. You went to L’manberg, or the ashes of what were left behind, shovel in hand, and dug him up yourself. Dream was gone now, nobody cared about the process. Even your own actions just months before felt like eons ago. The process doesn’t matter; he’s a body in the ground, and then he’s not.
The fact of the matter is, you weren’t thinking that maybe after everything was over and you actually got him back, there would be some permanent consequences.
or;
if you wanted the picture of schlatt back you had envisioned, maybe you shouldn't have eaten his heart.

Summary
The city, the nation is alive, and it thrives as its own little ecosystem, but up here they're removed from everything but the bass of the parties below. Easygoing bossa nova plays through speakers embedded in the ceiling, giving the room a soft atmosphere that mismatches the sharp look on Quackity's face. He waves his hand in a beckoning motion, and Fundy steps forward, flattening his palms across and down his chest.
"What did you want?"

Summary
“How about a portrait? You must’ve had a nice painting or photo taken when you got crowned, right?”
Eret looked at Foolish sheepishly. “Never, I’m afraid. It was quite a bloody time when I was crowned, so we never got around to it. The world needed soldiers, not artists. And besides, of all the periods of my life, that’s the one I’d least like to have immortalized, especially compared to now.”
“Then get one now!” Foolish said like it was obvious. “In fact, I’d paint it myself, if you’d like!”
⁂
TL;DR - With the Greater SMP at peace and King Eret finally free, she decides she's long overdue for a coronary portrait, and the strange newcomer, Foolish, offers to paint it. -

Sapnap: I knew how he laughed and--and how tight his hugs were and how he’d stay up all night too if you couldn’t sleep and I killed him. Okay? I made that call. I was right.
Sapnap, post-Dream.

Quackity and Wilbur were good friends before the Dream SMP, but Quackity's intense hunger for power caused them to drift apart. Now he has to deal with the conflicting emotions within him.Based on the song "Agnes" by Glass Animals

Summary
He's a lot of things, and above everything else, he has flaws. He's not perfect, Prime knows he's not. Despite what everyone in the barely even a country yet L'manberg with a population count of four seemed to think.
Which means: No, Tommy, he does not know what to do with the two children that showed up on the caravans' doorstep late during the evening yesterday while thunder raged outside.
***
Or: two or three years before L'manberg declares independence and Wilburs life goes down the shithole, he finds the two kids that make him have the courage to keep on going — and ultimately end up being his own downfall.
