While Dream was still giddy about coming out to his close friends, Sapnap and George collaborated undercover. They planned to buy new feminine clothing for their friend to accompany his makeup.
Sapnap infiltrated Dream's office-bedroom and closet with the excuse that he was "looking for something." Glancing over one shoulder, Dream simply shrugged before returning their attention to their computer. Carefully Sapnap pulled a ruler from his hoodie's front pocket, then measured the waist and height of Dream's shirts. In Dream's wooden dresser, he measured the inseam and length of his friend's jeans as well. Memorizing the numbers, he hurried from his friend's office-bedroom to browse for dresses online. Finding a dress which fit a broad-shouldered six-foot-three-inch male body proved to be a challenge, but eventually Sapnap ordered the perfect outfit.
George's task was much easier. From his distance in the United Kingdom, he could not measure Dream's clothing, so his assignment was to buy a pair of high heels. He faced a similar challenge of finding US men's size-14 (31cm) high heel shoes, but again, the Internet is full of surprises.
Within two weeks, both the dress and high heels arrived at Dream and Sapnap's house in unmarked cardboard boxes. When he received an email notification that the packages arrived, Sapnap raced to the front door and hauled them inside before Dream could notice.
"Need any help?" The friend in question asked curiously as Sapnap passed her room with the boxes.
"I'm good, but thank you!" Politely dismissing her offer, Sapnap crossed the hallway, entered his own office-bedroom, and placed both boxes upon his desk. Opening his smartphone's messaging application, he texted George, Commence Part 2 of Operation Feminization.
George responded with a bewildered, What???
Rolling his eyes, Sapnap specified, The dress and heels are here. I have them in my room. Dream hasn't seen them yet.
Catching on, George resolved, I'll be ready in 30 minutes.
With the plan's setup complete, Sapnap powered off his phone and quietly opened the packages with a pair of heavy-duty scissors. Removing the high heels from the shoebox and the dress from its plastic packaging, he placed the items into a decorated gift bag.
When George texted Sapnap that he was ready for gift-giving, Sapnap logged onto his computer's Discord application and opened a voice-call between himself and George. He disconnected his headphones, maximized the window which showed George's face from the UK, and pressed a finger to his lips to signal for silence. Clearing his throat, Sapnap turned in his swiveling chair and called loudly, "Hey, Dream, get over here!"
"Why?" Dream's reply reverberated through the house. When Sapnap purposely did not answer, he heard a grumbling sigh, then footsteps. Entering Sapnap's open doorway, Dream complained, "I'm still editing -" Their voice trailed off once they spotted George patiently waiting on the computer screen. Dream's annoyance faded into apprehension. "Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, we're fine," George affirmed with an expectant smile. When Dream remained still, he encouraged, "Why don't you step over here? I can't see you."
Slightly unnerved, Dream stepped forward into the camera's view. She raised a questioning eyebrow toward Sapnap.
"Now, you might be wondering why we called you here, Dream." Sapnap gestured to the decorated gift bag resting on his desk. "We wanted to express how proud we are of you."
"We bought you some presents," George added.
"You bought presents for me?" Dream's teal eyes widened with wonder. Gingerly she leaned forward to peer into the bag.
