Puffy happily sat on the ground, playing with frost.
"He was just like Dream when he was younger." Her smile grew.
"Just more chaotic."

George happily smiled.
"I can imagine so." He laughed, watching frosts tail away side to side.
"He's adorable."

Frost was happy... soon looking over to see Sam- he wanted to go annoy him some more.

-

Dream hid a distance away, looking over at the three... watching frost make his way to Sam.

He wanted to keep an eye on George... and make sure puffy doesn't get the chance to question him..

If it's one thing puffy loves more then treasure.... It's powerful information... or breaking down a person until what they've kept built up shows.

Especially if it's from the son of that 'merchant'

Dream softly growled, having an annoyed look... if he saw one wrong movement- he was grabbing George out of there.

"What's up with you...?"

Dream glanced over his shoulder, seeing Sapnap have a confused look.
"I am concerned." He grumbled.

"Why...?" Sapnap looked back at puffy.

"Just... every time puffy comes around- she gives me some sort of test." Dream had a firm tone.
"And it worries me... it's always some test to break your mental.."

"Oh come on, what's she gonna do! She looks like she's like 25-" Sapnap cut himself off soon after, his eyes widening.
"oh.." he grew confused.

Dream stared at Sapnap with a firm look... he knew Sapnap connected the dots in his head.

"How... didn't she raise you?!" Sapnap looked at Dream with a shocked look.

"How do you think she's survived on the seas so long... she's a sorceress..." dreams feathered ears pinned back.
"And I have a bad feeling about this time around." He looked at George with a worried look.
"I just hope she doesn't get him involved... I can't see him break down again.."

It hurt Dream to see the brunette so stressed and overwhelmed.. he just wanted him to rest.

Sapnap looked over, seeing puffy looking at George.
"You should probably go grab the remaining stuff from the ship... there should be a few spares of extra rope on the ceiling for the tents."

Dream sighed, flicking his wings open.
"Make sure George doesn't agree to anything puffy says." He flew off.
"Pull him away if it gets to that point"

Sapnap nodded his head, but once he glanced over... he saw the two shaking hands.
"Oh fuck no." He quickly flew the opposite way.
"I'm not getting in trouble now"

.: George POV :.

"It's nice to formally meet you." George shook puffys hand, his smile growing.
"It's really nice hearing your stories."

"The pleasures all mine." Puffy calmly shook George's hand.
"I've read a few of dreams notes... he has a lot to say about you, I've been wanting to meet you."

George grew confused.
"How did you get time to read them..?" He didn't know what they said.

"I fiddle with a few bits of magic to make sure dream isn't doing anything stupid.... I read his notes sometimes as well" Puffy waved her fingers.
"I had to make sure my little griffin isn't getting his ship to burned down."

"Magic..?" George's eyes widened slightly... he hasn't met someone that wielded magic.

"I'm a type of... sorceress you could say." Puffy looked at her fingers.
"I go by my own rules of course,"
