Picture is really cool fan art from @SuertoSean on Twitter. Captioned: DreamSMP Historical Images-One year ago today, the Jschlatt Administration came into power on September 22, 2020 following the victory of Jschlatt's coalition in the First L'Manberg Election
__________
"Alright. Today there will be an election for the deputy headteacher of this school. The parties will be introducing themselves shortly:" Principal Dream announced, "Also, I have put Mr. Soot in charge of this event. Good luck." and with that, he left the stage and the uncertainty of the school's future.
The parties introduced themselves, first being Swag2020 lacking their second representative whose name has not been disclosed of. Quackity's main point was the injustice of there only being one party and wanting a better outcome for the school.
Followed by Mr. Wilbur Soot embodying Pog2020: "I'm here to tell you I'm running for president. Uh the reason I'm running for president is because, well, I felt like it was unfair of me to just be a dictator. And if you vote for me, I'll keep those filthy Americans!... uh... I'll uphold the tapestry of our nation." Wilbur's bit of disliking Americans has been taken a bit further than a joke at this point which resulted in various negative comments from many people. Tommy countered this by claiming, "EVERYONE GETS MONDAYS OFF!! NO SCHOOL On-" but was cut off by Wilbur who dragged him offstage when leaving.
On the other hand, Coconut2020 came in with multiple ambitions: "My fellow citizens I stand here today, humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you bestowed, and mindful of the sacrifices born by our ancestors. I think Wilbur for the service to our nation as well as the generosity and cooperation throughout my raising. Now I mind to keep my word short and powerful and thus I say: I... am not powerful and I might not have wealth but I do have a dream. While Quackity has righteous ideas, and Wilbur the leadership, I, together with Niki, have a bakery and a worldwide shipping right. I can deliver as many cookies and ice cream as you desire once you have voted for Coconut2020. God bless this school." And with this the crowd cheered as Niki announced, "FREE CUPCAKES FOR ALL WHO VOTE!!".
"Oo I'd want a few," Mr. Bad Halo agreed.
"Wilbur, this isn't looking good for us."
"Hold your applause! Uh the voting ballot shut on 19th September and it's locked soo" said Wilbur.
"Wilbur, do you know how many people are against you right now?"
"You know what, I'll allow it as long as you have an endorsement." To this, Fundy and Niki quietly exited the stage. "Brilliant!" But Tommy was still unsure about the 3rd party.
Meanwhile, everything was crumbling for Quackity. "Where tf is George?!" but as soon as the spotlight was on him: "I am a politician that cares for the people and I am proud to announce that my one endorsement...My one endorsement is..." F*ck he's still not here what do I do, in a panic he claimed it was, "KSI!" this caused the students to cheer yet he never appeared. The students were disappointed.
Nonetheless, Tommyinnit introduced Pog2020's endorsement as "VIKSTARRR!" The students recognised the famous man on screen who recommended Pog2020.
Dream silently observed...
Wilbur grinned, proud to declare his second endorsement.
Coughing, an older man (only about his late 30s) trudged towards the centre of the stage, however his face expressed the confidence that he could (and probably wanted to) dominate the world.
"What is this?" he questioned. "Schlatt, you're our endorsement," Wilbur instructed as Tommy hyped him up, "Come on big man." To this, Schlatt ignored as his eyes squinted at a beanie guy beside him, "And who is this?"
"It's me babe," Quackity whispered shyly, but in a way that the students couldn't hear. Well, except Tommy who cackled when J. Schlatt in return, responded, "don't call me that," as he adjusted the microphone.
He cleared his throat...
* Schlatt was a teacher who had previously tried to apply to join the school. However there was no place for his profession - Politics (for A Level students). At the time, Quackity had encouraged him as he himself was a business studies teacher and believed their jobs work hand-in-hand. Dream admitted that he wasn't bad and therefore decided to give him a chance in the election. Schlatt only acted as if he was going to vouch for Pog2020 so he could have his way... *
"Democracy is overrated," he started as doubt spread across several faces, including Wilbur's which replaced his former delighted expression.
"You think you need a president? I CAN BE MY OWN PRINCIPAL!!
I'll run myself!" he concluded, "Vice Principal J. Schlatt. I like the sound of that.."
"Ay, and this was our endorsement for JSchlatt! Apparently he's back," Tommy attempted to cut Schlatt off.
"Well that was a mess wasn't it?" Quackity remarked.
Wilbur smirked,"What, like your endorsement with someone who didn't turn up?"
"Well..." Quackity turned in response to this.
"SCHLATT2020!!" Schlatt chanted before finding a slip of paper in his pocket, "I think I found the script. Vote Co-co-nut 2020" he read as Tommy escorted him off stage.
Following this, Jschlatt made a few more... 'disruptions' which in turn, entertained the crowd while Quackity, Wilbur and Tommy had a 'chat'.
It resulted in Quackity endorsing Schlatt as he screamed, "SCHLATT2020"...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE RESULTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I have with me in my possession, the results of the election with 2.2 thousand votes," Wilbur announced, however, enthusiasm was now noticeably missing from his voice.
"I must admit that there was some voter fraud to which I have removed those with the same IP address or name when they were scanned in. If you would like to know which party had votes spammed for them..." Wilbur turned towards Fundy and Niki at the side of the stage.
"I think we should continue with the votes," Fundy cracked under the pressure. Tommy added, "and Wilbur, I'd hate to say it but there seems to be one coding genius within Coconut2020." Murmurs filled the hall with inconspicuous sound.
It ended up with...
- Coconut2020 in 4th place with 9% of the votes "The pity votes," Quackity added, causing an eruption of laughter;
- 3rd place with Schlatt2020 (16%) - which was a surprise;
Like a show host, Wilbur proceeded, "In 2nd place, with 30% of the popular vote... is... lead by the party leader Quackity."
"YEAHHHH" Tommy celebrated.
"But listen, wait. Stop celebrating for a moment," Wilbur attempted to calm Tommy and the rest of the cheering down, "Two days ago, on the day of the election, after the announcement of Schlatt2020, Quackity made a deal with the leader of Schlatt2020: Mr J.Schlatt, stood behind me,"
Slight chuckles could be heard from Schlatt as WIilbur spoke, "and Quackity said that no matter what happened, Quackity would pool Swag2020 votes with Schlatt2020 votes."
Niki and Eret gasped but Tommy was silent with shock.
Wilbur reiterated, "POG2020 got forty-five percent of the popular vote, meaning that the coalition authority of Schlatt and Swag2020 got forty-SIX percent of the vote."
Wilbur was drowned out by the celebrations from Quackity, disbelief of the students and other teachers, accompanied by the echoes of Schlatt's cackles.
AFTERMATH
Schlatt took over the stage with Quackity. He chose Tubbo as his "right-hand man" (Tubbo was appointed as the student voice and organiser for big events and what else Schlatt plans). JSchlatt ordered for the expansion of the school, promising to tear down the walls and start construction as soon as possible. Wilbur's music classrooms were taken over for the new subject: politics. This upset Wilbur as he wanted to help the music department with money for instruments and events.
Author note:
I actually rewatched the lore to write this chapter as you can tell by some of the direct quotes from the streams. (I almost cried when Technoblade joined because I don't think I knew him before the Dream SMP - I used to watch Skeppy and was introduced to the server following the Disc war finale which I will use but in a very different way so stay tuned!).
After this, things will sway more into my storyline following the guidelines of the Dreamsmp.
