Nightmare couldn't stop pacing. anger and negativity powers he had forgot he possessed ran through his bones. he was angry, as angry he was before his greatest friend came back to him. the world seemed to go slower when she did. like everything was okay. even if they were not. he was not as pitiful as he used to be. she still was with him even when he was not the weak person she knew him as, and yet she decided to stay. guess he didn't change as much as he thought. Nightmare stopped in front of the old mirror in his room. his eyes scanning over the figure that was being shown on the other side of the broken mirror. his glowing eye glaring at his looming self. a disgusting mother that everyone would judge as the spot, just hate for no reason. he knew well he had become the one thing he and many others had feared over the years.
personally not caring anymore. on what he was, what he had become. he looked deep into his own eye. the tentacle on his back twitching at times. his poster was stiff and his chest were heavily raining and lowering by the heavy breaths he was taking. looking harshly into his eye. the eye of a beast the whole multiverse hated. the creature everyone hated except.... her. his hand quickly made contact with the broken mirror. the bit of glace that was still connected to the frame fell down and broke around his feet. looking down at them made it reflect thousand of broken part staring him that looked back.
"Why" he said. "why, why, WHY, WHY, WHY!" his hand were placed on both side of his skull. "Everytime. why must you ruin everything Dream!" he fell down on his knees. "all the attention, all the admiration, all the friendship." he mumbled quiet to himself. he felt weird. his hand reached up just to feel something he was not weary used to. looking over to the broken mirror pieces made his theory correct. he was crying. he looked so much like the person he was back in Dreamtale. he felt numb. He couldn't blame Dream for everything. Dream didn't know back in the days. about what he felt, about how everyone treated him, who lonely and depressed he was, his only friend... Nightmare began laughing into the emptiness of his room. was all this his own fault. not opening up to his brother and only clinging to one person. would everything have change if he had just open up to his brother. telling him everything that happened to him on a daily basis. telling him about her. would the tree not betray him. betrayed him so everyone would hate him more.
His brother cared for him once. he tried to protect him when he first did his mistake. would everything be fine if he never took that fucking apple. if he opened up to his brother more, let go of his loos, maybe never seeing her again. new rage and anger filed him again by the thought of her being gone. his reflection shifting from the pitiful version of himself to the one he was meant to be. the one no one could hurt anymore. one that would not break under pressure. he quickly walked over to his desk with some of his notebooks and maps. reading over notes and pinpoints.old and new plans. taking a hold of one of the notebooks before heading out and calling everyone in far a meeting. a lonely book was placed next to his bed with its run down and old cover. she had always believed in him. she didn't care about tall his flaws. having her around keep him calm like back when he was younger. not bubbling over with negativity.
he could not and would not lose her again. hands slamming open the door to see everyone seated. some of them were looking more pissed than the other. it seemed she left more of an impact to everyone then he would have guessed. it wasn't shocking after who released the atmosphere used to be in the castle when she was here. and all the days they could sleep in because they knew he wouldn't notice because he was distracted.he walked slowly over to his chair. roughly throwing it to the side and slamming the book in his hand down at the table. "okay, here's the plan"

This book is literally just angst and fluff.
I actually have fun diving into Nightmare mind and writing down who I think he would react to the situation.
