Tangled Up

Light In The Darkness

Dream and George had only departed from Sapnap and Bad a few minutes ago, all four of them agreeing it would be better to split up into twos to cover and light up most of the cave before gathering resources, it's the safest thing they could do seeing as respawning wasn't very pleasant, all of them had experienced it. Most from the man walking ahead, his green hoodie standing out like a sore thumb, George shook his head, he looked like a fucking idiot.

George had his pickaxe swung over his shoulder and a lit torch in his hand, making sure to light up every area  was the slightest bit hard, "Why have we got to light up the cave now," George whined, "We've been traveling since 10 this morning." The British man slumped on a near wall, giving his feet a little rest.

Dream looked back at George and smiled, though his mask hid this. He was also feeling slightly worn out himself not that he would admit it. He stopped and turned to the British man, his pickaxe over his shoulder and a torch in hand. "Come on now George, it isn't THAT hard," Dream replied, "We can take a quick rest if you need to though!" He leaned up against a wall.

George smiled, quickly dropping his pickaxe lightly beside him, the British slid all the way down until he was sat, it felt nice even though the cold mossy stone was slowly sinking into his jeans and into his skin, shaking his bones. It made him whine a bit but he had to keep that in, he already looked like a wimp in front of Dream, did he really wanna seem like a pussy because of a bit of wet stone?

"Well thank fuck, you know it's been nice being able to swear without Bad screaming 'language' in your ear." George laughed, almost to himself as he remembered not an before the oldest man had been hacking down Sapnap's throat because the younger had used an inappropriate slur towards George. (He knew it was a joke and that he didn't mean it.)

Dream laughed at his comment, he had also put his pickaxe down on the ground, he sank to the ground and winced. He had a sharp pain in his left leg, he didn't really know why, George had noticed him wincing but decided to ignore it for now. Dream snuggled into his hoodie for comfort, he refused to admit he was in pain especially in front of George. "We should get going now, we still have a lot more of the cave to light up!" Dream said, he was already standing up, George did the same and noticed the masked man wasn't putting any weight on his left leg. "How about I go in front, I can see you are injured, Dream." George said this as he started to walk in front of Dream.

"You know, if it's more comfortable then feel free to take off your mask." The British man told Dream, "I'll be in front so I won't see your face." As they started to walk, Dream's limp got worse and worse. He managed to keep himself going as George helped him light up the cave.
