Chapter 63- Play pretend is great fun! (DreamSwap)

Jammy is adoring how well his plan to liven things up is coming along but of course he has more to add to make it even better! It really is nice having such helpful siblings~

DreamSwap

Jammy giggled as he watched the 'window' he created from the surprisingly comfortable living room although he could see his parents faces depicted on nearly every piece of furniture and he still found it rather weird. He was so glad End had taught him this skill as now he had front view seat to what creepy cult leader Dream was doing you could pry that name from his cold dead fingers, thinking it suited the Dream rather well.

It was impressive how serious Dream was taking this all, not expecting so much chaos from merely insinuating that his siblings had been kidnapped but he couldn't deny the results were entertaining. It was just a shame that Sirius passed out from magic use so early on, patting his brothers head when they let out quiet snores and fully agreeing with his parents that the youngest needed to be looked after.

He sent occasional updates to Vega on how Dream's search for the 'two missing children' was going and was greatly entertained when he was sent pictures of what Star had done to a few monsters, while also in pure awe as that wasn't a simple accomplishment at all to turn monsters into another creature.

He had tried himself when he was practicing with End and mostly ended up exploding the entire AU in the end. That is when he learned how hard true Code editing was and that it even needed creativity for it to be truly effective.

End had scoffed as he showed him examples of other Destroyers sub par work and showed him how that was more like a child crayon drawing and that you only knew you got it right when the Code flowed just as smoothly before the edit. He knew he had a long way to go and while most would be jealous how Star could do it as naturally as breathing, he knew deep within his SOUL that his family still cared for him even without that skill...even if he wasnt yet fully on board trying to fight a Deity.

He hummed as he watched Dream tear apart an AU looking for Star and Vega, impressed how well the two had hidden their magic signature and thought that would be a fun thing to try for himself but first he thought he might try and jazz things up a bit.

It looked like things were calming down and that just wouldn't do, tapping his fingers on his leg in thought before they froze when a frankly excellent idea came to mind, unsure why he hadn't thought to do it before and quickly grabbed his phone and began furiously texting.

This was going to be perfect and it counted as sibling bonding so Sirius surely couldn't disprove of it and either way they would be out for awhile, quickly glancing over to make sure their magic was recovering before continuing his message.

His cackles rang out in the palace like a warning, only a few guards left to hear it as most were deployed out but it was almost like collective shiver ran down everyone's back.

One thing for sure was that nothing has been dull every since the temporary wards of Dream had arrived and no one was sure if that was good or not.

Most were relieved that their leader was far more lively lately, most having been worried how lifeless Dream had become but now a new spark seemed to have been lit in them since the children came into their life.

"..natural selection would let you die but luckily enough for you i am a merciful god. Bow down to your betters mortals!"

Vega said imperiously with a flowing gold cape curtain around his shoulders as he looked at his 'subjects' with a cool gaze. He tutted at their impertenace and decided he would show them how truly lucky they were to have him, moving onto his next speech while he saved a pitiful mortal with his tentacle the next second.
