"Nighty I don't feel so good..." Blue grumbled softly as he leaned against Nightmare. "Must've been something you ate? You have been eating too much chocolate..." "N-No no, it's not... It's not that... It's not really a stomach ache perse... It's... It's something else..." Blue mumbled as he then closed his eyesockets with a soft groan. "Well if this doesn't let up, how about we go and check with Medic?" Dust asked while Blue pouts. "Nuh, this'll pass... I hate needled." Blue whined childishly. "Don't worry, I hate needles too." Killer spoke. "You use needles as one of your weapons though..." Cross raised a brow. "I hate needles when it's gonna be used on me. Not the other way around." Killer snuck his tongue out and Cross nods.

"I brought some movies!" Dream chirped. "Don't worry Blue, I'm sure that it would actually pass. Since you're not feeling well though, I invited our friends to come join later on so we'll have fun tonight! Sleepover!" Dream chirped while Blue smiled a bit, perking up at that. "Sleep over!" Blue ignored the phantom pains happening on his spine and skull. It's not a headache though which confuses him. It's probably an outside pain...? Or from his transformation? He hasn't transformed in a while though.

"I'm gonna go and rest up for now though..." Blue sighed while Nightmare frowned. "Are you sure you're okay hun?" "Yeah hun, I will be." Blue smiled gently before he then just decided to teleport. Moving towards his and Nightmare's bed, he flopped down on it and closed his eyesockets in an attempt to get sleep.

"I'm worried, brother." Dream frowned a bit as he glanced at the hallway stairs, since the bedrooms are in the third floor. "I'm worried too... Hopefully it'll pass like Blue said." Nightmare sighed softly before Dream then flopped on Cross' lap with a small hum. Cross looking down at his mate and then giving him gentle scritched behind the skull, being careful of the crack on the back. Usually it was hidden with a visual magic that Dream learned. "Will your crack ever heal?" Horror asked curiously while Dream shrugged. "Dunno... Probably never" "I can't get over how the crack looks like a heart though, it's cute." Dust snickered while the rest hummed in agreement. "Yeah... Dunno how that happened really." "If the crack never heals then we can be crackhead buds!" Horror threw his hands up and Dream laughed. "Yus!" "Buncha crackheads." Killer snickered while Dust then flopped on top of Dream as well while snickering. "Sometimes I wish I left you four in your AUs." Nightmare deadpanned goodheartedly. "But cha didn't!" Killer laughed while Nightmare chuckled lightly. "Boss looooves us!" Dust exclaimed. "No I don't. That's my brother's job." "That is true." Cross laughed a bit.

"Even if that's my job. They're still your boys, Brother!" Dream laughed lightly and Nightmare playfully rolled his eyelights. "Yeah sure, whatever." Nightmare snickered softly. All of a sudden, they heard a shriek and Nightmare felt his marrow freeze. Then quickly teleported to his and Blue's shared room. "BLUE?!" Nightmare's eyesockets widened when he saw Blue transforming, something was wrong though. He wasn't meant to transform from wings first. Blue then gasped as he then shakily sat up and Nightmare rushed towards Blue. "Blue, Blue sweetie you're gonna be okay." Nightmare worriedly said while Blue hissed, leaning against Nightmare slowly and groaning. Eventually though, Blue calmed down and seems to stop. "What happened?" "What happened?!" Dream yelped as he bursted in with the rest before blinking when Nightmare and Blue turned to him. "Blue? Why are you... Half shifted?" Killer asked, not really knowing the right word. "I... I don't know. I just felt really sick then... Bam. My shifting magic forced me and now I'm like this..." "Can't you shift back?" Cross asked and Blue hummed, focusing before wincing. "No, it hurts when I do... I doubt it won't hurt when I shift to my dragon form too... Something might've tampered with my shifting magic..." Blue muttered while Dust frowned. "Wonder what caused it..." Dust murmured while Horror hugged Dust and nuzzled him. Dream thinning his lips and walking towards Blue. "Everything hurts... Usually... Whenever I shift, I can control the pain and how slow it should be... But..." Blue then glanced at his wings, giving it a flap before glancing at his tail. "They just... Sprouted... I couldn't control how fast it was, ut was so sudden..." Blue muttered. "Well, that explains the marrow dribbling." Cross frowned as he noticed the blood staining the back of Blue's shirt. Blue cursing lightly. "Dammit..." Blue whispered. "You're gonna be okay right?" Nightmare frowned, Blue giving his lover a small smile. "Yeah hun, I will."

Huh, wonder why Blue's magic made him do that 🤔

But anyways! The plot thickens! Or lightens. Idk, I don't even have a good plot to begin with. I'm just going with the flow at this point xD

Feel free to point out any grammatical errors or mistakes as I'd be too lazy to change it or leave it in cuz haha funny xD

Adios!
