DANDY'S POV

"You have to go, Dandy. You'll bring him back, or else we won't do your dirty work anymore!" Said Vee.

"Come on, i can literally just revive both of them right now" i said coldly.

"Do you really not care about them, as individuals?" Asked Vee angrily.

"Look, when they're revived, they'll just be the EXACT same! All memories intact, everything!"

"You're a monster, Dandy " said Toodles.

"FINE, you useless stinks... I'll bring him back! But once he's here, you're going RIGHT BACK to filling Ichor machines." I growled, anger filling my voice.

I walked into the elevator. I knew that Astro went all the way to floor 10. I couldn't see it well because there was a blackout, but i would definitely find him!

I reached floor 10 and looked around for Astro.

"Starboy...? Where are you?"

ASTRO'S POV

Once i heard Dandy's voice, fear filled my body and i felt a strange sickness in my stomach.
I followed the voice and saw Dandy swinging his legs on a couch, seemingly waiting for me.

"You'll... You'll regret doing this to me!" I shouted, sprinting towards him.

Dandy stood still. I was confused. He should run away! I reached the couch he was sitting on and stared at him angrily.

"I didn't do anything to you."

"Then explain this!" I cried out, falling to my knees.

"Toons twist when they feel intense negative feelings. There's barely any Ichor business involved."

"Turn me back to normal! I don't want to be like this!"

"It's impossible. You haven't fully Twisted yet, but don't worry! The sooner you do, the sooner i can revive you."

"I don't want to be replaced! I don't want to twist! You... You monster!" I cried harder.

"Ah, there it goes. Music to my ears! Keep going, it'll happen soon enough."

I focused on calming myself down. I wasn't going to give in! If the only way to stop twisting is to drive the negative feelings away, then that's what I'll do.

"What happened?" Asked Dandy. "Did the tears run out? Do you need me to tell you a sad story?"

"No. I'm not going to twist."

"They all say that... It only makes it more fun for me!" Said Dandy, smiling.

"Hey, remember that day we spent together on that hill? The shooting stars?" I said as my expression softened.

"Hm? No time for "Happy thoughts"! Move on, twist!"

"I really wish we could do that again. Just one last time."

"Ah, i assure you! Me and your revived clone will have such fun again" smiled Dandy, slightly annoyed.

"The forget-me-not flowers. They were pretty. I wonder if the same exact flowers are still there." I looked away with a dreamy expression.

"Stop it..." Complained Dandy, surprised.

I felt my aching body get soothed. I wiped the ichor off my limbs.

"And when we ate ice cream together... Do you still like mint ice cream?" I asked, smiling.

"How are you...? You're a tough one, aren't you..."

"And really, i think you look amazing in yellow. You don't have to hide your natural beauty, if Shrimpo says your petals suck, you should consider him jealous!"

I felt my body return to normal while i continued to think about happy things. Dandy's company also helped me feel less alone.

"This isn't possible... How?!" Asked Dandy, looking at me.

"You twist and untwist all the time, don't you? If you could, i was sure i could too."

"No... But i can control my feelings!"

"So can i!" I laughed.
