----------------

You awoke with your eyelids still glued together and your eyelashes covered in what appeared to be cobwebs. You immediately stand up and rub your eyes to feel a little more awakened as a standing coolish air is sent right to your nose.

You went to your closet, which had a fancy piece of black painted wood with intricate carvings of apples and swirls that you could feel. You opened it and picked out some basic warm clothing so you could make it through another day of chilly weather in this dark and gloomy mansion you have been residing in for the past few months.

You performed your daily self-care regimen, which includes brushing your teeth, styling your hair, and making sure you don't look dead, despite how you might feel.

You left your room and went to the kitchen after completing all of the tedious tasks associated with "getting ready" for yet another gloomy day.
Since you lived on the second floor, it took you approximately three minutes to get there, despite living a quite long time here, it still took you a long time to navigate through this confusing complex.

As you slowly came to a stop, you saw one of your 'roomates' or what you could also count as a ' close friend'. You laughed as you thought too seriously about names and waved to Dust.
"Hi Dust, early this morning?", you questioned as you sat next to him on a chair.

"Hm? Oh yeah, Boss, Killer, and Horror went out for something. Don't know what but Boss said I'm too much of a' talker' or 'gossiper'"

He explained as he used his fingers as quotation marks in the air when he explained what Nightmare had told him.

"Mhm... How long have they been out?"

"About a good hour. Don't know what's taking them so long" Dust shrugged as he took a sip of his cup of water.

(... Wotah)

You looked at the table with slight sorrowful eyes and nodded. Dust gave you an amused gaze as you became preoccupied with your thoughts. You glanced at him bewildered until you noticed him snorting with amusement. "What?"

As you asked, you noticed his broad
smile. "What? Nothin' " Dust made a weird noise and emphasized the letter "o" in his statement.

"You think it's hilarious even if nothing is wrong. Dust, what is it?"

"Oh, you know... you're sad, judging by your sad-looking expression when I said that Nightmare isn't here."

Now his grin was wider than ever.
Your face dropped to a threatening one as you punched his shoulder.
"you're so childish, you know that?"

"Oh please, the childish one is Killer"

"That... That is true, but still, stop indicating things you yourself don't know"

"So.. You agree that you're sad about Nightmares absence?"  Dust grinned mischievously looking at how your expression had changed.

"You know what? Bye, I'm leaving you alone, enjoy loneliness idiot"  you told him before leaving, heading back to your room out of spite.
