A/N: I made this chapter so disgustingly fluffy I almost puked. Anyway-

"Sgeppy?"
The man in question lifted his head. His eyes, no longer glued to the monitor, focused on the demon in the far corner of the room. He spun around in his chair and motioned for the demon to come closer, but Bad didn't leave his corner.
Instead, Bad hunkered further into the tight space and brought the mortal's phone to his chest.
"Am I... am I doing okay as a friend?"
Puzzled, Skeppy removed his headphones and placed them around his neck. "What are you talking about?"
Oh no, I sound like Sapnap... or maybe Sapnap is starting to sound like me... that's even worse!
Bad glanced down at the phone screen, and with a frown creased into his maw, he asked, "Am I a good friend?"
Skeppy's gaze lingered on the demon's face for a moment.
"Of course, but why do you ask? Do I need to throw hands?"
"I cannot imagine someone as short as you 'throwing hands' with anything larger than a guinea pig."
"Fuck you!" Skeppy scoffed. To his surprise, Bad did not scold nor berate him for his vulgar words, and that by itself worried the YouTuber.
"I- Are you sure? Are you positive I'm a good friend?"
"Yeah...?"
"Even though I don't give you goodnight kisses?"
Skeppy's inner gears stopped working at that precise moment. The words that escaped Bad's lips were so unironically funny he froze the very second they reached his eardrums.
"Sgeppy?"
"I'm- hold- hold on... can you repeat that?"
"I asked if I'm a bad best friend for not kissing you goodnight," Bad repeated with an even bigger frown plastered on his face. For the first time in what felt like hours, Bad removed himself from the corner and approached the mortal. He flipped the phone around and pointed to the screen, in which Skeppy leaned in to squint at whatever Bad was trying to show him.
It was a comment on a random YouTube video.
'You aren't really homies unless you give each other goodnight kisses <3'
The number of likes skyrocketed on that single comment and Skeppy nearly choked on the laugh that threatened to leave his chest.
"Bad... no. Bad, no. You're not a bad friend. Only the bestest of homies kiss each other goodnight," Skeppy reassured with a quivering smile. His eyes were watering and his chest felt like combusting after seeing Bad's worried expression. Was he a bad friend for wanting to laugh at the demon's cluelessness?
"But aren't we already best friends?"
"Well, actually—"
"We've already established we're best friends, though... or is there another level I'm unaware of?" Bad interrupted and furrowed his brows. "If so, how do I get there?"
Skeppy covered the lower half of his face with a fist. "Bad, what do you- what do you mean by that?"
"I'm not saying I want to kiss you, but if there's a friendship promotion I want it."
