[Bill POV]:

I don't like to repeat myself but Ford really has been spending time with that hick lately instead of me and I think it's time for more extreme measures. I can't kill McGucket.. yet; but I can traumatize him! Eventually..
First, I need to win Ford over. I'll show him how great I am with a few tricks, showing off a bit of my power. I think he's in the front yard about now, someone just shot his chessboard. I made my way over, Ford being the only one to feel or see my presence. "Tiny horses are of the devil!" The man shouts from his dark green truck's window. I couldn't just let Ford sit there and blank as this happened! So I tapped into his mind a little. "Why don't you go home and stick that shotgun where the sun doesn't shine!" We yelled. The man grumbled and sped off, black smoke trailing behind. I  stepped out of Ford's brain and patted him in the head. "W-what? Bill?" He turned to look at me. I smiled and wanted to wink but realized with one eye he wouldn't be able to tell, even in this raggedy human form. "I'd wink but I don't think you'd be able to tell!" I smile. "That was so clever and quick witted! How did you know I was in trouble?" He asked. "Oh Fordsy, I know lots of things. And remember, I like keeping an eye on you" I smirked, pointing to my eye. He let out a quiet laugh. "Well, I'm glad you're here.. that could've turned out so much worse" He replied. "You're welcome Fordsy, remember I'm allowed in your mind as I please. I can do other things while you're awake though, massage your brain, reset your nervous system so you can see color not visible to the human eye, or just help with cleaver insults like that one!" I explained. He seemed fascinated. "There's an with color in the rainbow?" He asked. "Oh sure, like I said though, not visible to the human eye and practically indescribable. Would you like me to rewire your nervous system?" I suggested. "Uh.. does it hurt?" He scratched the back of his head. "Good question! Euclideans don't really experience pain the way humans do, so I wouldn't know" I shrugged. "Uhh let's go inside first" He picked up his chessboard and began to walk in. I hovered behind him.
He went upstairs to a room with a fancy door, blue carpet and a couch that I assume he'd been sleeping on. It was a nice room though, other than that awful cyan and yellow rug. I watched him lock the door with a skeleton key. Fancy!
"There, I don't want Fiddleford seeing you" he muttered. I roll my eye. "What are you so afraid of? His brain will explode because he won't be able to process my greatness?" I laugh but Ford crossed his arms "I just.. I don't know how he'll react, I mean I'm not even sure what exactly you are besides knowing you aren't human.. some kind of.. supernatural being.. a god, a dream demon? I can't tell, but regardless we're not here for that. I.. suppose you could rewire my nervous system.. maybe it'll even do me some good, maybe my hands won't shake or sweat when I'm nervous or maybe I won't get so easily nauseous" he pondered. I don't know about all that but I'll let him believe what he wants. "You got yourself a deal!" I smile. "So is there some kind of procedure or— AHH" before I could process his question I leaped into his mind and began to work. Eh, sure it looks a little frightening watching an entity phase into your skull and poke at your brain but he'll be fine.
I've done this before! Probably.
I moved some things around, smoothed out some creases, I even made clone copies just to help, they're disappear when the task is done.
About half an hour went by and before ya know it I leaped out and Ford looked a little dazed but I can fix him! I'll just snap my fingers obnoxiously in his face like some kind of dog until he gets it together! "Oh Sixer!! Peak-a-boo" I smiled and forced his eyelids apart so he would look at me. A few minutes and he was fine. Knew I could do it!
"So how you feeling?" I smirk. He rubs his head "I feel.. a little distraught I suppose, but, mostly the same" he shrugs. I look around gazing from the window above, over to his desk "here, lemme show you what's been done!" I grabbed a prism off his desk and angled if with the window light over to his pant leg. The light reflected in and a rainbow shined out, but this time with the extra color I mentioned. "Woah.. it's beautiful, and impossible!" He smiles. "Indeed! You see Ford, with me on your team and as long as you pick your prices right, we can win this interdimensional game called life" I set the prism down, my smile wide and bright. "Does the color have a name?" He ask. "Well, back in the second dimension it does but.. I'm not exactly sure if it translates back to your language well" I replied. "Well then, I'll name it. Most other greats named their findings after themselves so how about.. Fordtramarine" he suggest. I shrug "Sure, sounds wise enough" which game me an idea! While he was scribbling in his journal about the color, I grabbed a paper from his desk and doodled something in Euclidean if lost return to Bill. "Hey Fordsy! Look at this!" I showed him. "What does this mean?" He looked at it a bit puzzled. "It means Wise One in my native tongue! You should get it tattooed so everyone knows it!" I smirked. "Uh, but there's a lot of.. characters for that to have the amount fit to spell W—" I cut him off. "Sixer RELAX, would I ever lie to you? You know I love you. Just think about how great it would look!" I smile to convince him as I wrap my arm around his neck lovingly. "Well.. I guess so. But I don't want Fiddleford to see it. It'll have to be somewhere I can cover it" he suggested.
Good thing in  interdimensional space prison they make you strip just so be sure you're not hiding anything in your clothes before they dress you up and send you to your cell! That way everyone will know who he belongs to once we rule the world, then the whole galaxy and infinite cosmos combined!
