Ink stresses out, Jammy makes it better! (worse) while the two babybones have their own fun with the Negativity Guardian of this place

Ink felt the need to pull out his non-existent hair out from stress and feeling so very out of his depth, his emotions far more turbulent since his new temporary 'wards' came to visit and it had barely been an hour!
He was stressed out of his mind as he sent out guards to look for the youngest children unsure why Jammy giggled at that or why Sirius looked rather exasperated, at least glad that at least two of them were behaving and staying put.
Sirius was kind of fascinated by the turbulent emotions coming off Ink, a tad disappointed that Brom had decided to wander off without even introducing themselves as he was sure that would have caused an even funnier reaction. He sometimes wondered if his thought process was getting far more chaotic than he was used to but seeing how his new 'family' reacted to it he would say it was rather normal reaction overall, kind of surprised that Jammy was far more unhinged then he first believed.
Their suggestions had been rather interesting and felt Jammy had been spending a lot of time with End and Origin lately perhaps a bit too much, especially when their first suggestion when stepping into this multiverse was curiosity how it would look with certain edits or how it even worked.
Although, he truly was getting worried for Ink who looked like they were about to have an aneurism any second and briefly thought of using his magic to help but asked Jammy before doing anything to see if they thought it was a good idea, who for some reason rather gleefully encouraged him to do so.
That should have been a red flag but he had been so distracted by the strong emotions coming off Ink and still getting used to his Creation magic blending in with his Negativity without it hurting that he hadn't been thinking straight. He would of course come to realise that his estimation of Jammys sanity was way too high, having an odd feeling he might become the voice of reason in this family.

"...I never imagined it would cause that sort of reaction. I wonder why they reacted like that?"
Jammy said faintly but there was a clear hint of glee to his words, watching Ink's reaction to Sirius magic with pure awe. It was almost like a flip had been switched in Ink's mind, going from a somewhat rational monster who was on edge, to a suddenly overexcited toddler that kept jumping from one task to another without any rhyme or reason.
It was almost magical to look at, his eyes bright with wonder as he thought of how Ink would react to other types of magic and began reading the Code about them with a near unhinged grin.
The near full grown Paperjam variant had truly become more confident under Origin and End's tutelage, no longer as shy with his personality almost blooming like a flower due to plenty of encouragement to follow his interests.
It was just a shame for most people that Jammy was insanely curious about the world and leaned heavily into his destructive side, those two combinations a rather dangerous mix to be let loose.
"..maybe its due to being around a Dream type a lot and having mainly positive magic around them? Maybe this is some sort of survival mechanism from having two drastic magic types suddenly in their body?...do you think a weaker monster would even survive such a thing?"
Sirius shivered at how morbid the questions were getting and had a sinking feeling in his SOUL when he could visibly see Jammy was looking very tempted to try it kind of worried how they planned to get their hands on the two specific magic types but had learned first hand that this family was very resourceful.
