Cross works at a cafe that Dream owns. Horror is one of their coworkers

Killer is a customer or Cross's friend and Killer hooks up with Nightmare. Cross seems to find himself liking the other. (Nightmare is passive and very formal). The other continues to come back each day.

It was the start of a day, Cross was across the counter in the pastel themed cafe.

He waited as customers came in, He smiled as Killer, a regular customer came through the door.

《🤍 " Killer! Welcome! I assume you want the usual? " 🤍》

Cross asked, Marking down notes on a clipboard.

At the cafe for work shifts:

Horror.. ✅.. [Employee.] ✅.. [Employee 2.] ❌.. [Employee 3] ✅


《 🔪 " Yep, just the usual, I brought along a buddy as well. " 🔪 》

He smiled as P!Nightmare came through the door and the bell rang. 🔔

His hands were properly wrapped together, formally.

💜 " Greetings. " 💜

He says, bowing after. 🙇‍♂️

Cross gave a chuckle, before calling out horror.

《 🪓 " Yes Marsh? " 🪓 》

《🤍 " Can you get the order of a Matcha, ice as well? " 🤍 》

Nightmare smiled, bowing his head and left to a table.

Killer excitedly hopped over and sat down.

For some unknown reason he wasn't surprised Killer brought in someone else. He always did but damn he'd be lying if he said the other wasn't pretty. His purple orbs were just so mesmerizing he couldn't help himself.

He stared a bit too long as the other looked at him. They stared at each other, none of the two breaking eye contact. Before Cross looked away and went to get their orders. Possibly help Horror out.

"Hey H, What's up? The machine broke again?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry."

"No need to be, I'll just ask Dream to get another one, Why don't you work on the deserts instead?"


Horror seemed happy and nodded, walking over to the cabinets. Horror had already made Killer's order so now it was.......What was the other person's name again? Killer told him it was Nightmare.
