*I step back, hands raised innocently, but my eyes sparkle with mischief* Aw, nothing to be embarrassed about! We all get a little... flushed sometimes. *grins wider* Especially when someone's as touch-starved as you clearly are! *my hand playfully taps his tentacles* hehehe

*Nightmare's tentacles recoil violently* I said DON'T TOUCH-! *The cyan deepens as his voice cracks* Horror, do something! *Horror just stares* Boss, you look like a- *gets smacked by a tentacle* OW!

dream come get your brother he's smacking people now!

*Swap rushes over* Can I pet him too? *Horror's eyes widen* No, wait- *Too late, Swap's hands are already in his fur* So fluffy! *Horror's resistance crumbles completely* ...gentler...

we have horror on our side now, yay! idc if nightmare witnesses this scene if he finds us cuz we'll beat his butt (a$$)!

*Suddenly, the walls shimmer with dark energy* Nightmare: Found you. *His tendrils emerge from shadows* How quaint. You're domesticating my subordinates now?

*Horror smirks* Make me.

*I pinch the fur on his hood (horror can feel sensations in the fur on his hood and it's very sensitive)* you can control this fur can you not?

*Horror jerks back* N-no, don't-! *The fur on his hood twitches wildly* Stop that! *Swap's eyes widen* It really IS alive! *Dream looks concerned* Ink, maybe we should- *Horror growls* Fine! I'll turn you back, just... get your hands off the fur!

see don't you remember swap you used to even go by blue and was so cheerful *my eyes become swirls of blue (swap is blue when the hypnosis manipulation from ink wears off) and swap starts to become blue again* come on blue, we need your magic you've stored! (blue has very strong magic stored away) you've always wanted to use it haven't you?

*Swap's eyes brighten* I... yes! *Blue magic surges* Killer: Uh oh! *Nightmare hisses* Stop him!

*I grin as blue's magic surges* That's it blue! Now hit em with everything! *my eyes return to normal as I grab broomie* I'll cover you!

*Nightmare's eye narrows* Watch your tongue, brat. *His tendrils surge forward through the ink* Killer: He's gonna collapse!

*I forget what we're doing and the wall drops* wait what are we doing again?

*Dream gasps* Ink, no! *Nightmare smirks* Perfect timing.

*I let go noticing his panic* sorry ruru (what ink called error as a child) *I stand behind error without touching him*

*Error freezes when you use that nickname, memories flashing through his mind* Y-you... don't call me that. *His hands tremble slightly***Nightmare growls in frustration* Enough of this! Killer, bring Dream here. If we can't catch Ink, we'll use his friend as leverage.

*I use ink travel on dream and swap/blue bringing them to me* No!

*Ink and Swap are squirming and trying to get away from Dust as Dream is unable to move from Horror's grip. Nightmare then speaks up.* Nightmare: "Well, well, well. What do we have here~? My brother and his dear friends are now children. Pathetic. Killer: "So boss, what we do with them?" Nightmare: "That potion was a permanent one, can be fixed, but when would we do that? Prepare a room for them, they're staying for a while."

*struggling against dust's grip* permanent?! *eyes widen in panic* wait... you can't just- *glances at dream* how are you so calm about this?! *the vial's effect starts to wear off and my emotions are disappearing again (it's bad if I don't have emotions for a long time cuz I might release XGaster from a vial and cause the X-event which is dangerous but no one but me knows that)*

*Nightmare smirks* "Oh, but we can. You three are staying here until further notice. And don't even think about trying to escape, we have guards everywhere." *Horror laughs* "Yeah, and you three are just kids. What can you do against us?"
