"Thoughts of Nightmare / Palette"

After the fight, Dream stared blankly, looking like Ink when he doesn't drink or runs out of emotional vials. Wrapped in the blanket, he sat leaning against the couch where Ink left him. His bones were left with only faint burn marks on his wrists. Dream refused to let his wounds heal without a trace, he needed a reminder of what positivity can do. Palette Nightmare's expression and reaction when he unintentionally denied him again opened a painful gap between him and his emotions. Dream knew that this state was temporary and it was only a matter of time before positivity buried his pain. Dream was honestly starting to feel like a puppet waiting for his puppet master to come for him. The feeling made him uneasy, he didn't want to be controlled by others, he wanted his brother and his family.

Ink took care of him with the same understanding love as Dream did when he was in a similar situation. Dream took Ink's hand with a gentle smile, leaving a kiss on his fingers. Ink giggled in delight and pulled Dream into his lap, kissing his face and neck. With a faint smile, Dream let their love temporary wash away the pain of their existence. 

After the night together, Dream woke up with a loving smile in the arms of his love. Dream has felt the equality of the need for negativity and positivity since childhood, but throughout his life he was constantly unsure of himself. His environment demanded positivity, and he lost Nightmare and Palette by conforming to others.

"≤ If, the two are one and the same ≥" Dream longingly. "≤ Would he be happy if I called him Night? ≥" unsure but still hoping to reach him. Fate couldn't wait for the next scene, where Dream's bond leaves wounds like sharp strings on both brothers.

Walking into the park of the neutral world of Fluffytale caused some uneasiness. Waiting for Cross to notice them, they stopped in Ccino's cafe, who greeted them with a half-smile, serving them without discrimination. Palette, no longer playing a role, ordered bitter thinks while Goth ate the chocolate sweets. Their conversation created a playful atmosphere as they discussed their latest readings. The normality of the conversation has a shocking effect on those around them, who, if they didn't know who they were, would have smiled at the interaction of the two teenagers.
