Summary: Dust introduces Nightmare to a new way to induce negativity.
Nightmare and Dust sat on the manor's large couch, staring at the decent-sized TV in front of them. The former held an upside-down video game console controller in his hands. His cyan eyelight twinkled with suspicion as he inspected the colorful scenery on display. A masculine figure baring green/orange armor and guns stood motionless in the center of the screen; Dark rocks and lava made up the surrounding area, posing many dangers to the novice gamer. The Guardian of Negativity hummed curiously. Testing a button, the armored character inch forward before breaking out into a full sprint and stopping a millimeter away from the bubbling magma.
"So, this vid-ee-oh game-" He started, only to be cut off mid-sentence.
"Video game." Dust received a menacing scowl at the correction.
"Yes, that." Nightmare hissed, adding, "I can use it to inflict negativity upon others?"
The hoodie-clad skeleton shrugged. "Pretty much. In this one, all you need to do is steal kills and camp- which will make almost any player instantly anger, sad, or annoyed."
"I find one problem with this."
"What? It should be easy. Plus, I already explained how to play the game three times. We are not going over it a fourth!"
"No, not with the game. I comprehend how to play it perfectly. Besides, we wouldn't have to had to go over it so many times if you were better at explaining things." Nightmare jeered, promptly gesturing to a small line of text located by his character's health bar. "My username. Why must it be 'snugglefluffin69'? I don't even know what that means!"
Dust fought back a grin and waved a hand dismissively. "Heh. Don't worry about it. 'S an insult people use nowadays."
The dark guardian's eye socket narrowed. The positivity emanating from the other was hard to ignore and made it difficult to believe the words were a mere insult. He leveled his jaws with a crafty smirk, stating, "Intriguing. You must share more of these new-age vulgar words and insults with me, so I may properly scorn my brother when we once again meet."
