Living in a snow biome is tough. 

the heavy downpour of snow making it hard to open the door, the constant blizzards, and of course the sheer cold. 

the crackling of the fireplace as another log gets thrown. the warm smell and rave of the fire helped battle the cold that Dream was facing right now. 

snuggled up in the pinglin host's cape, wearing a warm sweater underneath wasn't enough. He asked for more soft blankets but Techno said he would overheat. 

trying to get his mind off the cold and other negative thoughts, he drifted into memories of the piglin and him being kids. He and Techno were friendly rivals when they were young. always fighting and sparing with each other. 

then his mind drifted into a certain day, near a hill. his wooden sword's handle broke and became unusable until a mysterious, yet kind man came to fix it up and also saved us from a horde of zombies. 

Dream softly chuckles at the memory. 

He remembers feeling amazed at the mysterious man, seeing how cleanly his sword sliced through the zombie hoard like he was doing the tango. 

his name was Mr Slab, well Dream think so, he doesn't remember much from when he was younger. 

he wondered if he was still alive, but Dream shook the thought. 

Dream is immortal, there are no other immortals except Phil and Techno. 

unless he was a watcher, but that would be impossible as watchers aren't allowed to roam in servers. 

Dream must've been very expressionate during his silent thinking as Techno noticed his deep thinking. 

"something on your mind? '' Techno crossed his arms, lifting an eyebrow at the dirty blonde. 

"ah yes actually. say Techno, do you still remember when we were younger?." "when we were younger? "

Dream nodded, Techno looked down and closed his eyes trying to remember what Dream was referencing, immediately looking back up and opening his eyes as he remembered. 

"Ah yes, I still do. But why are you suddenly asking me this? the memories themself are centuries ago. " he gave Dream a suspicious look. 

"ah- don't get so judgy now. I was simply reminiscing about the past. though I did want to continue my question if that's alright?."

"go ahead. "

Dream cleared his throat, "Do you remember Mr Slab? from what I remember he was quite tall, though probably because we were kids back then, he had white messy hair with black eyes. "

Techno thinked, trying to picture the image of the man. it clicked when the image he was looking for was found in his mind. his original mentor. 

before he met fruit, he met Mr Slab. 

he was very young back then, being ambitious and wanting to fight. but his parents never let him. 

that's until he met Mr Slab, and watched him slay the rotten monsters effortlessly. 

then he let them become his students, and we learned the basics on how to fight. 

heck, he was the one to teach Techno how to use a bow, and use it properly. 

he smiled at the memory, receiving a giggle from the other man in the room. 

Techno immediately went back to his poker face, hiding his face in embarrassment. 

"I wonder if he's still aliv- " "that wouldn't be possible" Techno cut Dream off, while Dream already knew what he was going to say. 

"we parted ways with him centuries ago, and in my knowledge, the only immortals that exist are me, Phil and you. ". Dream rolled his eyes, groaning. 

"but imagine if he was still alive, maybe he looks different now than he was in the past. we should meet-''''no." Techno cut him off again, but this time getting an apple thrown at his face. 

"bruh.". Dream pulled the cape down, " that's what you get for cutting me off again. now, continuing what I was wanting to say".

"what if we meet him, you know? like go to visit him. " '' You know Phil wouldn't like that. 

Dream crossed his arms, " Phil this.. Phil that. it doesn't matter! the old guy isn't even here anyways".

Dream stood up, flaring his arms dramatically, "and plus, maybe I could escape arrest and not be on a wanted list!. "

Techno sighed, nodding on how this plan would be a little beneficial in the end. 

"okay fine, start getting clothes and a lot of jackets. don't forget your medicine. "

Dream nodded in excitement, immediately grabbing the backpack and running towards his room. 

hearing the door click, he grabbed the paper and quill, and of course some ink, and started to write a note for when Phil gets back. 

this will be a long road trip.
