Dreamswap Oneshots

Surprise Party (Apple lads bday special)

***

This is based on an RP with Jay (I think you are all starting to become familiar with them). This takes place in a timeline where Dream grew a braincell and stopped chasing Nightmare.

***

Warnings: None, I think.

Ships: Meme Squad Poly, Drueswap

Synopsis: Dream sighed again, longing for the untouched cup of coffee that was waiting for him in his office as he pushed the door open. At first, he saw nothing but darkness.

As he was about to turn around and ask Ink what was going on, the lights suddenly turned on and loud pop sounds erupted from all around the room as several figures leaped from a made-up giant table on which lay an equally massive cake.

Confetti were released in the air as a chorus of "Happy Birthday!" came forth from most of the silhouettes' mouths

"Where are we going?" Dream asked, confused out of his mind as Ink pulled on his sleeve, dragging him down the corridor toward the cafeteria. The halls were strangely empty, the few staff members standing guard paying no attention to them besides a nod of a greeting.

Everyone had been acting odd ever since the first hour of the morning began and Dream was starting to suspect that something was stirring up in the depths of the Justice Reigns' headquarters and he had no idea if it was supposed to be a good thing or not.

Ink kept pulling him further into the halls. "Somewhere."

"And the reason?"

"Boss, respectfully, shut the fuck up." Dream sighed deeply at the sentence, shoving down the seed of irritation that threatened to blossom in his chest. Getting angry at Ink would do little good.

They were approaching the cafeteria's imposing wooden doors now. He at least hoped that whatever was in there was worth his time, a terrifying amount of paperwork was still waiting for him in his office, and he would like to be done with it as soon as possible to rid himself of some work.

He could really use some sleep.

At last, Ink finally released his sleeve and stopped in front of the doors. Dream also froze to avoid bumping into him, dusting his jacket. He raised an eyebrow as he noticed his subordinate staring at him.

"What is it?" Ink gestured toward the door.

"Open it." Dream crossed his arms around his chest, still perplexed as to what Ink was thinking.

"Can't you do it yourself?" Ink rolled his eyes as he stepped away from the door.

"What, are you scared?" He lightly tapped his back to push him closer to the door handle. "It's a door Boss, it's not going to bite you in the ass."

Dream sighed again, longing for the untouched cup of coffee that was waiting for him in his office as he pushed the door open. At first, he saw nothing but darkness.

As he was about to turn around and ask Ink what was going on, the lights suddenly turned on and loud pop sounds erupted from all around the room as several figures leaped from a made-up giant table on which laid an equally massive cake.

Confetti were released in the air as a chorus of "Happy Birthday!" came forth from most of the silhouettes' mouths who Dream soon identified as Nightmare, Error, Cross (the only one who did not yell that), Blue and Kevin, sitting on Nightmare's head.

A Happy Birthday banner also appeared in his field of vision, having descended from ceiling, and now hung there, right in front of the cake.

Ink walked past him and took a confetti shooter, triggering it at least three seconds after everyone else. He kept trying to reignite again but to no avail, the toy being thrown somewhere else in the room now that it was empty and useless.
