A different approach

Third person's POV: King and The Collector were playing hide and seek The Collector was seeking and King was hiding, King was under the bed and thinking to himself about The Collector he started to think how lonely The Collector must have been..... He started to think The Collector was basically just used by him and Belos King was thinking maybe he's no better then Belos he used The Collector after all just like Belos did..... All The Collector wanted was a playmate but what if what The Collector just needed someone to show them from right and wrong what if The Collector just needed a friend who understood him.... King started to think more and more, with all the time King had spend with The Collector King started to see himself in The Collector he remembered when he used to called himself the king of demons and generally thought that he was.... He remembered that he was too caught up in that fantasy to face the reality just like The Collector they're too caught up in a fantasy to even realize any harm they've done King though if he could break out of his own fantasy and face the reality that he was no King of demons then could The Collector do the same..? King thoughts to himself maybe he should be the one to help The Collector... King manage to break out of his own fantasy maybe he could help The Collector break out of theirs..... Then King heard footsteps and immediately knew it was The Collector, The Collector was looking around trying to find King and looked under the bed "King!" The Collector said and giggled, King come out of the bed "Found you! Now it's your turn to seek!" The Collector said with a smile "Wait..." King said "Hm?" The Collector was a bit confused "I don't want to play hide and seek anymore" King said "Well what do you want to play?" The Collector asked "I was wondering if we could talk a bit instead...." King said "T-talk...?" The Collector said.... "Well I kinda thought that maybe I've been thinking about this all wrong...." King said "Thinking about this all wrong?" The Collector questioned "Yeah maybe what you need isn't a babysitter... Maybe what you really need is a friend" King said "A f-friend..?" The Collector said King nodded his head "Well I'm pretty much stuck here with you so why shouldn't we be friends? Besides I think we can both need a friend right now" King said "I......." The Collector said "If you want we could get to know each other in the form of a game like three truths and a lie" King said "I-I'd like that...." The Collector said " I'll start I'm a Titan I have a plushie named Francois I like to research demons and I wore a blue collar when we first met" King said, The Collector was thinking about what the lie was, "Well take a guess" King said "Uhhh well I never saw you wearing a collar when we met" The Collector said "Actually I did wear a collar-" King said but The Collector cut him off "Aww.... So I got it wrong..?" The Collector frowned "Actually you got right!" King said "You sure you're not just saying that to make me feel better?" The Collector asked "Well I did wear a collar but it wasn't blue it was a red collar so you did get it right!" King said "Well I guess it's my turn then..?" The Collector said "Yeah! So go ahead!" King said "Hmm... When I was still sealed way sometimes I would heard something or someone.... I'm scared.... To be alone... I didn't have friends and.... I have a family....?" The Collector said, King immediately knew what the lie was "You have a family.... That's the lie right..?" He said "Y-yeah.." The Collector said "Collector.... Do you even know what a family is..? Not trying to be rude just curious..." King said "Of course I know what a family is! Families are people that are related to you right..?" The Collector said "Well you don't have to be related to be family.... I mean I'm a Titan Luz is a human and Eda is a witch none of us are exactly related but we still see other as family" King said "So you guys aren't related but you still see each other as family...?" The Collector asked "Well have you ever heard the phrase family needs love not blood..?" King asked "Well yeah... But I don't know what that means..." The Collector said "Well you'll get there eventually who knows maybe I'll consider you part of my family if we really become good friends heh" King said "You'd consider me a part of your family..?" The Collector asked "Well to truly became a family takes time and I'm willing to get to know the real you" King said, The Collector had never heard such kind words before.....Getting to know the real him and wanting to actually be their friend The Collector felt happy...... That he had finally found something he had never had.... A friend.... "Well I... Umm t-thanks!" The Collector said "Hey I like being friends with you too" King said to The Collector "Hm.... Well I guess we should keep playing!" The Collector said "You're right I guess it's my turn now" King said
