His body had plopped into the void, floating silently. Icabod was completely alone, as usual. Though this was 100% normal, this wasn't how it was supposed to be tonight. Shouldn't Josh and Ari be he- Just as he thought that, the metaphysical forms of those two manifested into the abyss with him. But before they could attempt to share some words, the colorful swirls gave way and spun them into a downward spiral, soon corkscrewing them onto the shaggy blue rug of a nursery.
Icabod was wearing his regular outfit in the dream realm, a comfy wool sweater and thick poofy diaper, which he soon attempted to cover the latter with the former, blushing. Ari was also wearing her usual, and since Josh had never really been here before, he was wearing his customary little outfit, a green dino hoodie and a pamp with actual Pampers-like designs. The trio then just sat there in silence, feeling awkward. Though as due to his nature Josh broke the ice by asking "Why are we not wearing any pants?" "That's just how things are here." Ari replied. "Also, thanks for that. Was feeling kind of like a dinner party there." While they were talking, Ic turned over his shoulder and spotted something red, round, and flat. Curious, he crawled over to it and as you can guess, it was the wish button. "Wait hold on what are you- OH." She bum-shuffled up close to where he was while saying that. "What? What are you guys doing?" Josh sandwiched himself in between the other two. "He- wait what's your name?" "Icabod." "Icabod found the wish button!" "Oh, phew." He sighed. "Wait you didn't know his name..?" Ari ignored that question and went straight to teaching mode, making eye contact with Ic. "Now Icabod, the best way to deal with the wish button is to be kind and clear. No aggressive bonking or angry demands." "But.. but I have been kind. I haven't been bonking it, I haven't even made one wish.." Ic explained, looking like he was on the verge of tears. "Oh, well in that case you- wait you haven't made a wish yet?!" He nodded. "What the- how? U-..." She went silent for a moment, trying to figure out this perplexing situation, before taking a deep breath and saying like she was impressed with him "Wow, I've seriously never heard of that happening, guess it was especially thirsty for you and just couldn't wait. Probably why it hasn't been visiting me.." Ic seemed to calm down somehow, though he was immediately shocked by her last line. "Wait, what?" She giggled, now trying to lighten up, "Of course, how else do you think I know so much about this?" He didn't answer, just stared, waiting for her to continue, though luckily, she did. "Anyways, so as I was saying, the best way to deal with this situation is to be affirmative, dominant. Like this." She got up onto her knees and commanded with a firm voice, "Wish button, I want you to get me some ice cream." Instead of that, Ari then suddenly and uncontrollably plopped a hot stinky load into her seat, and then another one shortly after. Icabod was initially shocked by that, despite experiencing that too, though he was only completely mortified when she reacted to it. As normal, she promptly sat down on the floor, squishing her waste around her lowers. She giggled and placed her hand on the back, cusping the mush and smushing it in. "Mhmm..." She turned her eyes to look at him and immediately stopped apon seeing his absolutely horrified expression. "Oh uh.. yeah, so kindness is the way to go if you actually want to get what you wish for.." She grew a little blush on her cheeks, suddenly feeling some of the weight of his reaction. "Ari!" Josh turned to her, looking definitely mad now.
