The Fallen Dreamer

The lavender field

I honestly forgot that in order to have a truce ya know actually recognized it needed to be written up and all that so i decided, once i got home, to do so. However at the same time i wasn't fully sure what Night would want in it for his side so i only wrote my half of it.

I, Dream Medaille, formally accept and recognize this truce between both gods of positivity and negativity. I will not interfere with Nightmare, king and god of negativity, unless the balance between the two needs me to do so. If I must break this truce for any reason then I shall return to stone. Unless it is needed I shall not fight Error, God of Destruction, nor aid Ink, God of Creation, in any way other than what is needed for the emotional Balance.

Signed: Dream Medaille

As for Nightmare's side I just leave his half of the parchment blank and unwritten. I sighed as I have to bring this to him but honestly I don't want to right now.. Eh, I'll do it later. With a small sigh I got up from my desk and limped a bit to the bed. There I changed into my night shirt and started the long process of removing my limbs. I yawned as I looked out the window. I know he sent someone to watch me.

"Night you're still protective. Even though I don't deserve it..'' I sighed as I raised my stump of a left arm up and sighed even heavier. Did I show them my prosthetics or the extent of the damage being a statue did to me no. Why would I? My entire left hand is gone and all but my thumb and middle finger is gone on my right arm even then I'm losing feeling in it soon i won't be able to fight at all in all fairness. I shouldn't be fighting as is. But that is how it is. I knew ink was hiding shit about them but to go this far..

"What do I do? I can't fight my brother... yet i know even with this i'm going to have to fight them.. I can't just stop... I can just quit my job outside of what is needed on my side.. But if I do that then I wouldn't be a good God..." I curled up furthermore into myself. I'm well aware of the spiral I'm going down. Unlike the others I have nobody to call to help. I chuckled as I curled into a very tight fetal position. I'm not sure when but i ended up falling asleep.

When I did finally wake I was a bit surprised to see Nightmare, Dust and Error in my house making tea. Well fuck.

"What are you three doing here?"

"To help you. Dust got worried and Error will not leave my side for some reason.."

"When were you going to tell me about the state of your body?"

"Never.." that only earned a hum from Night before he sat next to me and had me sip from the tea cup

"I'm sorry.. For everything. I read what you have written so far. And please don't turn into a statue.. I'm sorry for doing that to you to begin with.." I raised a brow at him a bit confused but it clicked.

"Night why are you apologizing? I was the neglectful one. I picked a bunch of strangers over my family. It's honestly my fault that you're an octopus."

"And I decided to hide what was happening. We were kids in all fairness we shouldn't have had to deal with any of the crap we did. Give me your hand. Dust, take this."

"Yes dadmare" he took the cup and put it on the table as error handed Night my prosthetics. I gave him my right hand. He lightly took it and started to put it on my hand.

"Dream.. Why are you isolating yourself? What happened?"

"Blue stopped being a Stars clearly, Ink has mellowed out thanks to Gin but he's still Ink.. and I was alone when we didn't have to stop you guys. I'm not even sure why Ink made it to where you're attacked on sight. But it's also not fully his fault at the same time. There's a lot everyone doesn't know. I failed our home. I don't want our multiverse to fail because of me too."

"Dream you've never healed from our home.. If you had you wouldn't be as broken as you are. Let my family help you. However, why do you have so many fresh injuries? We haven't fought in about a month. These wounds are at least two weeks old. Dream what happened"

"As I said there's a lot you all dont know. Thank you Night for the help but I don't need it." I slowly start to sit up and put on my left hand, then turn so I'm on the edge of the bed. I winced a bit when I heard the thud and saw my right middle finger had finally snapped off.

"Huh i thought i had another month before i lost my full right hand.." I tilted my skull before grabbing my thumb and snapping it off. It was going to fall off in a few days anyways doing this made it easier on me.

"DREAM!!"

"Hmm?? What? This was gonna happen. How do you think I lost my legs?" I honestly am very confused as to why this matters to them.

"Dream, this is not normal!! How have you been able to deal with this? Who all even knows?!"

"Ink and Sci. but Ink forgot a long time ago now. And I know that it's not normal but we aren't normal Nightmare. However, that is not the matter at hand." i chuckled a little bit as i held up my left hand

"You have to spread negativity. And you, Error have to destroy at least 30 Au's. I'll try to keep Ink's attention but I will not make any promises. As of now I'm only the God of Positivity. No more and no less." I saw hope in their eyelights as well as guilt in Nights.

"Night stop being guilty. It's not your fault." I placed my hand on his and smiled softly before I started to put on my legs. Then slowly stood to look at Dust.

"Dust, you and your siblings who are good for Nightmare need to manage the positivity you have while around him. He's weaker when you guys have too much. Error your love for him while is his strength yes but it WILL be used against you all. You are all each other's strengths but also greatest weakness that Ink is going to use against you. As a guardian I will not step in when that happens. But as someone who used to be close to him I will step in. I can not let him destroy the emotion balance." When I stated that I grabbed my staff, sat down at my table and sipped the tea, sighing softly.

"Well what are you three waiting for? Get out and do your jobs." I rolled my eyelights as they looked at me in shock before leaving. I turned and looked out the window to watch the sunrise.

"Can I even hold myself to that statement? Either way i have to go visit sci so we can remove my hand and give me my new one.. That can wait for a bit." I smiled softly as I had my tea and watched outside. I think I can handle focusing on only my job.
