Talking

~Later~
Dream teleported back to Doutertale (Outer/DustTale since Dust takes the role of Outer) and he continued walking staring up into the sky being hypnotized by the beautiful stars

Dream then started to hear sniffling he looked around "Hello!?"Dream yelled out raising a bone brow when he didn't get a response

"Hey Dust are you out here!"Dream called out reaching up to his and readied his strings as he went towards the direction that the sniffling was coming from

Dream stopped in front of a bush the sniffling coming from behind it.Dream took a deep breath and sent his strings through the bush causing them to wrap around the person causing a smirk to creep onto Dreams face

"Oh you poor unfortunate soul unfortunately for you theres no one to SAVE YOU"Dream announced as he pulled the person out from behind the bush in one big pull only to revel......

His brother......

Dreams strings was wrapped all around Nightmares body.Nightmares eyes had purple tears pouring out of them the underneath of his eyes slowly turning red

Nightmare whimpered as his eyes widened upon seeing his glitchy brother and tried to scoot away but Dreams strings keeping himself still

"G-Get away from me!!"Nightmare shouted moving around in Dreams strings not looking in Dreams direction as Dream stared down at him with dark eyes

"Nightmare....."Dream said in a dark tone but still a caring tone

"W-What?"Nightmare whimpered out still avoiding eye contact but turned his body towards Dreams direction

Dream moved closer to the purple smaller and crouched down infront of him causing the smaller to wince and whimper

"Nightmare look at me......"Dream said now sitting down.Nightmare looked up at him and met his dark gaze Nightmare shaking slightly but still tried to give a determined look
Dream sighed and made his strings disappear around Nightmare making Nightmare a bit shocked at glanced at his once tied up arms

"I'm sorry....."Dream muttered out looking down at the ground causing Nightmare to look at him a questioning look "Why are you sorry Brother?"Nightmare asked tilting his head in confusion as he watched his brother stand up

Dream sighed and looked down at his brothers skulls seeing the hole HE made when he threw Nightmare at a tree too hard in a battle

"I thought you would have gotten that healed by now?"Dream asked raising a bone brow making Nightmare tilt his head even more giving Dream a even more confused look until he noticed Dream was pointing to his own face "Oh! You mean this!"Nightmare exclaimed bringing hand to touch the damaged area that made him blind in that eyelight

"I tried to get it healed even went to see Killer but he said the damage had already been done and there was no saving my eye even if we did manage to the heal the hole"Nightmare said as he looked at Dream with a sad smile

Dream let out a small hum of acknowledgment avoiding eye contact causing Nightmare to look at Dream in sympathy "Brother....."Nightmare trailed off as he started getting up and walked up to his brother and gave a small tight hug shocking Dream and making him glitch out abit

"I already forgave you,you don't need to be sorry big brother...."Nightmare said as he nuzzled his head even more into Dreams neck

Dream stared down at Nightmare with wide eyes and disbelief

Dream slowly moved his hands up to the middle section of Nightmares back and the back of his skull and immediately started hugging back despite him on the verge of a crash and was trying his hardest not to crash

"You know you could come back with me"Nightmare said pulling away from the hug only his hands resting on Dreams shoulder "We could be a team together and be able to hang out together like the old days"Nightmare said with a smile causing Dream to give a sad smile in return but it slowly turned into a frown as he put both of his hands ontop of his brothers and took them off of his shoulders

"I'm sorry Night but....."Dream trailed off and looked down at the ground his hands turning fist "But its not possible not yet and probably not ever....."Dream said as he faced away and opened a portal and made his way towards it only for Nightmare to grab his hand and stop him halfway

"Dreamy please! I don't want to keep fighting you!"Nightmare exclaimed purple tears pricking at the corner of his "Nigh let me go"Dream said still avoiding eye contact and tried to pull arm away "No I wont not again this is my only chance Brother!"Nighmare exclaimed having a good grip on Dreams arm

"Nightmare....."

"No!!"

"Nightmare!!"

"NO"

"NIGHTMARE"Dream yelled as he finally pulled his arm away and summoned his strings and wrapped them around Nightmares soul making Nightmare gasp in fright and shock as saw Dreams expression got even madder as the appearance of Nightmares half black and half gold apple soul

"You....."Dream trailed off his eyes wide as he kept staring at Nightmares soul.Dream shook his head letting Nightmare go and fall to the ground as he went through the yellow portal and immediately closed it

"Oh Glitchy you're back!"Blue announced causing everyone to look up from what they were doing and stared at him

Purple tears pricked at the corner of Dreams eyes as he sped walked to his room ignoring the mutters and slammed the door shut once he entered it

"Is he ok?"Blue asked as he stared up at Dreams room with a worried expression "Hes fine he just needs some space...."Lust managed to say from the coffee table with his mouth full of chocolates

"Don't talk with your mouth full Lust"Ink said not looking up from his book while sitting next to Lust

"Ok Dad"Lust said now swallowed the chocolates just leaving a chocolate mess over his mouth

Ink growled as his tentacles twitched behind him angry that the gang started calling him that but it finds kinda comforting that the gang trusts him......
