Death's Apprentice (Phil/Schlatt/Wilbur/Foolish/Dream x Reader)

Tension

Blade comes by a few weeks later.

It is strange, seeing how he said he had never been to this realm before because your Master had been secretive, but Death opens a portal again and when the Blood God steps through, you're relieved to see he isn't hurt.

You imagine that Death had been rather angry with how he reacted to you lying to him and it is nice seeing him and knowing he is alright - even if you know gods cannot die, you imagine they can still feel pain and you were scared he would get punished in your place.

But Blade is well and weirdly enough, he begins to train with you.

It confused you because Death said he is your only Master but now you are supposed to learn from another god and you don't really like the thought, but Blade doesn't really act like a teacher.

More often than not, you have the feeling you are actually the one that needs to remind him he is the teacher because just like you had been fascinated with the warped forest, Blade is just as fascinated with the purple and yellow blocks, poking and angering some Enderman, accidentally sitting down on a Shulker box -

"Hey, what happens if-"
"No - Just - don't touch anything here. You're gonna break something!"

...really, I thought he is the God here?

It is strange to you, you thought all Gods were like Death - distant and authoritarian, but maybe you shouldn't have expected that from a god that calls himself the embodiment of chaos and anarchy...

"So don't worry about ever offending me, little one. I am the one taking offence for those that never survive to take their revenge."

...just how can he hold speeches like that...

"I am going to fly on that dragon."
"I - She is an entity older than the gods, you will NOT attempt to sattle her like a horse! Show some respect-"
"I am DEFINITELY going to do that. Just - look at her! It's a big flying dragon! How couldn't I try to fly on it!?"
"She is an elder guardian!"
"She's a big flying horse - Oh come on, just once!"

...and then say stuff like this?

You can barely comprehend the polar opposites Blade embodies because at times he was a stern and patient teacher and other times you had to stop him from eating your lavender plant, or stepping into a nest of endermites, or angering the Enderman because he kept staring them in the eyes...

"I never avoid an opponent's gaze - if they challenge me to a fight I will fight-"
"Stop being dramatic about it - they just don't like it when you stare at them! We're protecting this realm, not harming it!"

"Really, what fun can you even have inside here? It's boring.", grumbles Blade and levitates in the air while you take the Shulker box out of his hand, holding it shut so it won't attack you.

"We are guardians of this realm, not children playing in here - stop using Shulkers for levitation.", you huff back and he just turns in the air upside down at your speech, "You are agitating them-"

"Well, yeah, that's the plan. Not my fault they decide to hide like cowards in shells until provoked - they should come out and face me like real men-"

"They are mobs, Blade - not men.", you carefully place the Shulker down where he took it from, "This isn't the Nether where you can just fight everything - there is barely any life left here. And the few that remain we protect."
