Dullahan AU one shots!

Dream the Hypnotist

(Now that the lore is out of the way, time for random stuff! This one was inspired by the MLP short: "Starlight the Hypnotist")

Dream's body was laying on his couch, while his head was floating around. Currently, he was looking for plans on a spa building from an empty AU he can use for Lust. That's when the he heard a knock on the door. Dream quickly returned to his body and opened the door, revealing it was Cross.

"Oh, Cross. Did you want to see me?"

Cross panicked.

"No. I mean... Yeah. I mean, I bet I'm interrupting something. I'll come back later!"

"Oh, not at all, Cross. Come on in."

Cross looked embarrassed as he walked in and looked at the random Earth glove Dream had in his living room for some reason. Dream noticed this.

"Is something wrong?"

"NOPE! Not at all! Uh... I mean..  if you want..."

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, Cross."

"I mean, if I tell you, you'll laugh, and say how ironic it is, all that stuff."

Dream took off his head and handed it to Cross to hug, as his body lead Cross to the couch.

"I won't judge, Cross. My job is to help people with their fears and insecurities. You can tell me anything."

Cross started to pet Dream's head as he finally mustered up the courage to tell him his biggest fear.

"You see... I'm... Terrified of... Of... Cows."

Dream held in a giggle, then cleared his throat.

"Cows?"

"SEE! I told you! You laughed!"

"You're right. I'm sorry. I did promise not to laugh. Now, can you tell me your trauma with cows?"

Cross looked back into his memory.

"Well, back in X-Tale, we were on a mission at a local ranch, and one of the cows there tried to eat me!"

"I doubt that, but this is your perspective, so continue."

"Undyne told me that the spots on their body were extra eyes. Watching you wherever you went. So creepy!"

Cross hugged Dream's head tighter and whimpered.

"Did you know that Farm's Gaster Blaster's are cow heads!?! Ever since he's been bringing fresh fruits and vegetables to the Omega Timeline. They've been everywhere!"

"I think I know just the thing to help."

Dream's body walked towards a bookshelf, grabbed a book, and handed it to Cross.

"Dullahan magic? What's this for?"

"Turn to page 101."

Cross did so, and there was a section on hypnotism. Cross knew where this was going. Hypno Therapy.

"You wanna do... Hypno Therapy... On me?"

"Yeah. I mean, if you want to."

Cross nodded. He wanted to live a happy rest of his life in the Omega Timeline, with Epic, and not screaming everytime he sees a cow. He needs this.

"Ok. First, set me on the table, where my body is, facing you. And after that, look into my flame, and you should see a little star."

Cross did just that.

"Now, only focus on the star. You are getting sleepy... The only sound you should hear is my voice... Peace and quiet... Fully asleep, and at peace..."

Cross then closed his eyes. Cross was in a trance.

"Now, instead of being afraid when you see a cow, you will now-"

"KITE FLYING TIME! HELL YEAH!"

Dream screamed from fright, and knocked his head off the table, and into the kitchen sink. His body turned to the intruder, who happened to be Ink, and the flame went higher and hotter. Cross, who was still in a trance, heard Ink's voice, and thought it was still Dream.

"Cows... Kite flying time... Hell yeah..."

Cross woke up and looked around, and hugged Dream's body. 

"Thanks again, Dream. I'll head out and get that cow kite for the kite flying thing!"

Cross bolted out to find a cow kite. Meanwhile, Dream's head gurgled from the sink for Cross or anyone to get him. And someone did. But it was...

"Dream, why are you in the sink? Shouldn't you be on your body?"

Ink. Dream glares at the artist as Ink put Dreams head back on the neck. Ink walked out of the house with his rainbow kite, and Dream's sun kite.

During the kite flying session, Cross kept making his kite go up into the clouds.

"Yeah! Can't see me now, huh? What's wrong? Got clouds in your eyes, spots!?!"

Cross continued to laugh like a madman, as the cow kite kept going up into the sky.

"Hey, Cross is starting to enjoy this! But why does he keep yelling at to stop looking at him?"

Ink turned to his positive acquaintance, to see Dreams head was gone again, but replaced with a star. This time, Ink was in a trance. Dreams head was floating behind Ink and he looks at the reader. Yeah, that's right. You.

"What should I do with him?"
