Summary
It took Sam three days to retrieve Tommy’s corpse from Dream’s cell. By then, the decomposition process had already started, and most of his organs were no longer functional. Of course, Tubbo wouldn’t let such a minor complication discourage him from doing what needed to be done.
Certain substitutes were easier to find than others. Piglins’ hearts and kidneys were plenty compatible. As long as he was careful with the specimen he selected, the chances of Tommy’s body rejecting them were rather low.
Lungs and liver were the main hurdles for him.
Most people on the server, unfortunately, happened to be hybrids. Wilbur would likely have been suitable enough (although he was a heavy smoker, so the condition of his lungs probably wasn't the best), but he had long since rotted in the grave he'd dug for himself. Punz was one too, but finding the mercenary was already hard; taking him on in a one-on-one fight on top of that would have been near impossible. And Tubbo couldn’t revive his friend if he was dead.
That left him with only one option: Dream.

Summary
When Tommy had been exiled across the sea, he’d sent Tubbo many flower bouquets: one of blue hyacinths and white tulips, one with both pink carnations and white orchids, and one of lilies of the valley. At the time, he didn’t know that there was a meaning behind them. He just thought that his friend had been trying to bribe him into pardoning his crimes with corny actions.
Nevertheless, he’d pressed every flower he’d received in a book, dried them up, and kept them. He thankfully had the foresight to hide them in a chest in his oldest house before Doomsday, and to never tell a soul about them, so they survived the devastation as well as Dream’s odd obsession with possessing anything that once belonged to Tommy. They’d remained in their own little bundle, collecting dust, for months.
And then Tommy died. And Tubbo’s heart stopped.

Summary
the prison took everything from him — his strength, his hope, his will to keep breathing. but when the world finally goes dark, a familiar voice breaks through the silence. techno has never been good with words, but some promises don’t need them. and this one is simple:
if dream falls, he’ll catch him.or ..
dream thought the cell would be his grave. techno proves him wrong — and shows him that healing, though slow, is still possible.

Summary
As the server inches towards a better, kinder future, there remains one thing looming over them all.
Dream, the server's admin, cannot remain imprisoned inside Pandora's Vault. Vio, the roleswapped Purpled leading the push for reformation, poses two options; either they kill him for good, or else they negotiate with him and put him on parole.
Deciding what to do with Dream is a tricky matter made trickier by the Warden refusing to cooperate, and even trickier because Vio has evidence that Quackity-- now dead at his hands-- was being allowed inside to torture the prisoner.
Will the server choose mercy or the blade? What has happened to Dream now that only the Warden is able to see him?
The answer hinges on the simple fact that Vio, despite having swapped roles with Ponk, is still a very fucking stubborn bastard at heart. His kindness may stem from spite, but that doesn't erase that it's still kindness.
Final part of the Reformation Arc. The story continues long afterwards, though.

Tommy takes a sharp breath and pushes away his reeling thoughts. He’s in Techno’s cabin, and he’s in the past.
It makes too much sense and no sense at all.
At least Tommy is really, truly sure he’s not dead now because his heart is thundering in his chest.

Summary
"It's Warden to you," he snapped, and his grip on his ender pearl tightened. He wasn't Sam when inside these walls, because the Sam before this would never be able to stomach the actions he performed now.
"W-Warden," Dream corrected himself quickly, body swaying as he dragged himself onto unsteady feet. "I, I don't know if the dispenser broke or something, but I haven't had any potatoes for a while. I'm just really hungry now, so I was wondering if you could fix it?"
"It's not broken," Sam scoffed, and turned just enough to see the prisoner's face crumble. Confusion painted his features as he stared, emerald green eyes round and shifted with betrayal.
"Excuse me? What do you mean it's not broken?"

Summary
His body betrayed him, shivering, wings twitching under Ghostbur's touch. He could tell him to stop all he wanted, Ghostbur knew the word had no meaning right now, so long as Wilbur kept responding he'd keep going until he knew he meant it.
He'd always been great at tormenting himself, but this, this was new, it felt like tar seeping into his brain, heat pooling low in his gut more with every motion.
Finally, Wilbur let go, shifting out of Ghostbur's lap and laying back on the mattress. "I hate this... we shouldn't be like this... I... hate you..."
Ghostbur follows, sprawled out half next to him half on top of him, resting his head on his chest. "I miss you."
Or Ghostbur gets revived and Wilbur has way too many feelings about it.

Summary
Despite what the others may have thought, George truly wasn't going to go looking for Dream. He knew better than that. But he wasn't about to spend the night listening to the residents of Kinoko Kingdom walk through what they would do if Dream attacked them.
The walk to his house was dark. Kinoko was usually so bright, but it appeared as though Sapnap thought that Dream might just believe that no one was home if the lights were doused.
George made his way upstairs and shed off his cape as soon as he entered his room, turning to hang it on the door hook.
"Eight months," came a voice from the darkest corner of the room, "and no visit."
George removed his mushroom crown and set it on the dresser before finally turning to face his past.

Summary
Tell me once again
I could have been anyone, anyone else
Before you made the choice for me
My feet knew the path
We walked in the dark, in the dark
I never gave a single thought to where it might lead
All those empty rooms
We could have been anywhere, anywhere else
Instead I made a bed with apathy
My heart knew the weight
Ten years worth of dust and neglect
We made our peace with weariness and let it be
The moon will sing a song for me
I loved you like the sun
Bore the shadows that you made
With no light of my own
I shine only with the light you gave me~
What happens when everyone is convinced they are the hero of this story? When one can't see the true destruction they've left in their path, they are doomed to become the very evil they feared and condemned.
