I personally believe that cWilbur was extremely jealous of what cDream had in the beginning. He was a well respected leader, a strategist and peacekeeper and despite the fact that the SMP had no government or ruler he was looked to as the defacto leader.
And c!Wilbur wanted that.
I mean, when he does L'manburg, he's literally not had a single conversation with c!Dream. He doesn't really know him at all. His original target was Sapnap, and he pivots to c!Dream both because c!Dream seems to be the guy on top and because after a single conversation with c!Dream I mean, it becomes pretty glaringly obvious that c!Dream is the one that's uh, easiest to work with (one minute in and he's already speaking on Wilbur's terms.) The revolution kind of solidifies c!Dream both as the one that should be his target from a leadership level + from a "will play along the easiest" level, which is kind of where we start seeing a specific focus on c!Dream from c!Wilbur (lizard snake thing, suck it green boy, calling Dream lord instead of Eret, etc.)
But I mean. Like, he doesn't really know c!Dream well enough to be jealous at first. And Dream isn't really his first target, either. c!Wilbur's whole deal with Being The Guy On Top isn't really about any specific person or jealousy, either, as exhibited by his towering to stand over literally anyone and everyone. Like look c!Wilbur literally just has control issuesđand the repetition of stuff like iconoclast and sticking it to the man and how he makes a point of wrangling control for himself or taking it more obviously like. This is not a man that likes to feel like he's under anyone or being controlled by anyone or being told what to do by anyone

We never see Sauronâat least not in The Lord of the Ringsâand that was funny to 13 year old me. When I first followed Frodo on that journey to Mount Doom I wondered at the choice to name a book after a villain who doesnât actually appear in it. Thereâs the arrow of red light from Barad-dĂ»râs highest tower, of course, or the dark cloud with the reaching arm that rises over Mordor at the moment of Sauronâs defeat, but both of these function as suggestions of his presence or the weight of his attention only; they are the interpretations of the events as seen by others. Likewise, the one and only time Sauron speaks we receive his words through an intermediaryâa contrite Pippin who has sneaked a peek at the palantir.
But Sauron is always there. The threat or the fear of him is always just at the edge of our peripheral vision: in the far-flung, millennia-long plots[1]; in the metaphors that put him everywhere all the time, disembodied limbs reaching to encompass all of Middle-earth (âhis arm has grown longâ) or disembodied eyes searching[2]; in the almost campy performance of evil on display when he orders his minions to steal only black horses from the Rohirrim; in the capitalized pronouns; in the metonymy and other evasive forms of address his orc underlings use to circumnavigate invoking him. In poor SmĂ©agolâs other self[3].
In the ever-increasing weight hanging from Frodoâs neck: our antagonist is on that journey, too, literally and figuratively barreling towards his own destruction.
Along that journey Tolkien tells us numerous names and epithets for himâ103 according to Richard Blackwelderâs A Tolkien Thesaurusânot counting the many he goes by in other texts. One of those is âThe Nameless Enemy.â This wordâânamelessââis first applied in this way by Boromir at The Council of Elrond and later by Faramir, suggesting that invoking the name âSauronâ may be considered dangerous or even taboo to the Men of Gondor.
But ânamelessâ is far more appropriate than this simple explanation can express.

now there's going to be a funny question: what rational reasons does he have for burning himself in lava? XD
there's nothing else to do obviously đ it annoys the warden and getting a predictable reaction out of him is Useful :) and it's not like it does any real damage soooo. you see he's causing himself repeated pain for very well thought out reasons that he's completely thought through !! knowing how other people will react is Useful. and it shows how not fazed at all he is by pain which is also Useful. and yeah the answer is he's being very rational about it obviously even if it might look like he's not because he's showing sam that he's insane which is important to keeping up the ruse and again the pain doesn't mean anything. so yeah.
