A/N: I can't believe I got amazing fanart for this! Thank you so much! It really makes me so happy as an author to see people enjoying this! Also I rewrote this so many times, so it took so long! I'm sorry! >.<

Unknown POV:

The frosty sting of cool air pinched at my skin. It cut and diced like little blades of knives, grating every inch of me. A light drizzle from earlier made everything all the worse. There was a burning sensation in my brittle bones.

It's been 3 days? Maybe 4? I lost track. All I know is I haven't eaten or rested since. On the constant move. Always.

Breathing a shaky gasps, my body nearly collapsed on me. Thankfully, the remaining strength in my arm propped onto some nearby stone bricks.

Keep moving. A...couple... more...

A little workshop was hanging in the horizon. Hanging on my mind. Toward the outskirts of the village, its glowing, golden lights, were emitting from a small window. It was comforting and welcoming.

"I'm here..." I murmured, blissfully ignorant to the hoarseness in my throat. The last time I drank was from a small stream 2 days ago.

The moment I approached closer, a warm expanse of light beamed onto my freezing body. A fresh aroma of baking smoke and homey metal wafted to me. I rapped lightly at the door.

Knock. Knock.

It peaked open. A familiar figure with black, greased hair and a dark, twisty mustache stared at me, shocked.

"...Mumbo..." I whispered, "I'm home."

With those words, I collapsed onto the ground.

Bad's POV:

I had no idea how I ended up in Techno's room, and had even less idea why he tolerated it, but here I am.

While he read leisurely on the couch, I'd just received a new letter Skeppy.

The envelope had a light, golden sheen, fanciful as always. Skeppy always sent me things with expensive packaging. However, I noticed it was tightly sealed this time, with a small, muffin-shaped crest on its surface. Weird.

Peeling the sheet open, the first thing I noticed was how messy and scratchy everything was. Normally, Skeppy always had misspellings and crossed words, but this takes the cake. And it was a good sign. Skeppy always wrote like this when he's honest.

"My D̷e̷a̷r̷e̷s̷t̷ ̷B̷a̷d̷,̷ dear Bald,

"Oh my goodness..." I murmured, setting the envelope down. "You muffin..."

My face rapidly began heating. A fuzzy feeling settled in my chest. He's so...

I laughed a little, a big dopey grin spread on my face.
