==================================

"T-the fuck you mean you can't stop this?! It's all in your control!" Astro hissed out, slamming his fist on the table. "It's all your fault. You should've- You should've stopped this while you had the chance. Hell- you should've never done this." He muttered, scowling. Dandy just listened to Astro's rant, not interjected until the silence filled the room again. "I tried." Dandy replied, earning a glare from Astro. "'Tried?!' 'Tried' doesn't help! If you knew you couldn't stop it, then why do it?!" He spoke loudly, his voice echoing throughout the room. Dandy had gotten irritated, leaning forward. "I did for- for us, Astro! The Toons! I didn't mean for any of- any of this to happen! Why do you think I want this?! I don't!" Dandy shouted in return. Astro froze, eyes widening. He's heard Dandy yell before, but not at him. He looked away, not knowing what to say. Astro sighed, placing two elbows on the table and setting his head in his hands, meanwhile his other two arms stayed crossed by his waist. "I belive you.. but, we have bigger problems. They can't know I've been helping you. They've been wondering why I've been covering for you. Any time they've gotten close to even figuring out what's happening.. I gotta- y'know.. I feel bad for Roger.." Astro muttered, looking back at Dandy. "What if you.. what if you just locked it all up and never opened the Staff Room ever again? You could just come back.." Dandy glared at him, his lips in a thin line. "Okay, you've already tried it, I guess.. don't look at me like that." Astro muttered, avoiding Dandy's glare. He set one of his unoccupied on the table, drumming his fingers on the wood. Astro couldn't thing of anything else, really. Dandy was a smart person, so if something sounded stupid or too stupid he probably shouldn't say it in the first place. The silence was deafening, ringing going through Astro's ears. Dandy looked down, rummaging through his pocket. He took out a small vial, filled with black liquid. Astro's breath hitched as he brought out the vial, scooting his chair back and standing up. "Put that away. W-why the fuck would you- why do you have that on you?!" He hissed out, standing up to try and snatch it. Dandy pulled it away, but at the same time dropping it. The ichor spilt all over the floor, splattering onto one of Astro's arms and getting into the cracks of the floor tiles. He winced, holding onto his affected arm. "What- What the fuck, Dandy?! I- What does that even do?! Am I- am I gonna become one of those- those monsters?!" Astro hissed, looking at his arm.  The liquid wouldn't come off, no matter how hard he tried wiping it off with his sleeve. It was like.. attached to his skin. Astro scratched at it using his nails, but barely any came off. "Fuck- get this off of me, Dandy!" He hissed out, holding his arm out. Dandy winced, looking confused. He looked at the ichor on his arm and then his eyes, seeing the hurt and betrayal in them. Dandy gave no response, looking away. He stood up from his chair, stepping away from Astro. "Get back here! You- you did this to me, so- so fix it! Dandy?!" He shouted, watching as Dandy backed away from him. "I don't know what to do, just- give me some time, I'll be right back!" Dandy replied, giving a nervous chuckle. Astro's eyes widened, rushing over to Dandy and grabbing onto one of his arms using one of the other three unaffected arms. "No- you can't just leave me here, you idiot! Look- you did this! You can't just leave now-" Astro breathed out, his words jumbled and all spoken in one breath. He took a moment to regain his breath, letting go of Dandy's arm by accident. Dandy took this chance, opening Astro's room door and rushing out. Astro couldn't stop him, watching as Dandy popped the vent open and skittered back inside, not even bothering to close it. He dropped onto his knees, scratching at the ichor with all three hands. Astro couldn't get it off, no matter how hard be scratched or many times dug his nails into it. It hurt, badly. He started panicking, tears gathering in his eyes. He gave up, his arms falling to his side. Astro let the tears fall, his heart racing. One of his hands gripped onto his shirt, pulling to try and fan himself. He managed to stand up, closing the door. Astro slid against it, sitting at the bottom of the frame. He dug his head into his knees, still scratching at the ichor. He didn't want to be one of those Twisted things, and it hurt so much.. The only thing he could think of.. wait. That could work. Astro lifted his head slightly, scooting over to a drawer. He opened the middle drawer of the set, rummaging around. Astro took out a small blade, which he used frequently and always kept in his drawers. The initials A + D were carved into the wooden handle, worn out but still there. He fidgeted around with the blade for a moment, wiping his face off due to the tears blurring his vision. He found the correct way to hold it, hesitantly holding it against where the ichor stopped, the top of his lower arm near the elbow joint. He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself. He had to- it was the only way he thought of.

No matter how hard he tried cutting the affected skin,

the ichor just wouldn't come off of him.
