โ โย โ โhe stiffened at the blonde's last statement. his hand flew to where the old stab wound used to be as wet eyes stared up at dream.
ย โ โย โ โย โ โ" i'm not going back... i.. i can't go back. "
โ โย โ โย โ โ" what do you mean...? "
ย โ โย โ โthe shapeshifter turned to look at the other with a frown. he bit his lip..
ย โ โย โ โย โ โ" he's my brother, dream. i can't just hurt him... "
โ โย โ โhis face dropped as he just . . . stood there. he was in shock. he was..., slightly, scared.. if tommy was being true about what he was saying, he'd be back in limbo again...
ย โ โย โ โย โ โ" no this.... this can't be real! i mean.. i'm his brother! hr wouldn't... "
โ โย โ โgritting his teeth. . . his fists balled up. a deep breath as nails dug into skin.
ย โ โย โ โย โ โ" is that so. . . ? and he told this to... you? of all people? i find that a bit hard to believe . . . "
โ โย โ โ. . . scoff.
ย โ โย โ โย โ โ" is that so...? i mean โโ it's not the first time, but what exactly.. did he say? "
โ hey @scelestuslapus , your brother was shit talking about you and I don't think you will like to know what he said about โ
โ โ
ย โ โย โ โย โ โi'd rather not. i already have enough of a headache from you today. i'm free tomorrow though.
( he winked, giving a slight laugh before taking another drag from his cigarette. )
ย โ โ
โ โ
ย โ โย โ โย โ โhe grinned, crossing his arms and watching the other... very closely. scarlet hues drifted to look down at the deck of cards as he awaited the reveal.
ย โ โย โ โย โ โย โ โ" pleasure doing business with you. "
ย โ โ
โ โ
ย โ โย โ โย โ โtaking a moment to process everything. he bit his lip before he nodded.
ย โ โย โ โย โ โย โ โ" fine. . . but if you get it wrong. . .? we trade positions. i get the power and you become the assistant. "
ย โ โย โ โย โ โhe held his hand out.

( tossing the lighter at him, he shrugged. he pinched the bridge of his nose. )
ย โ โย โ โย โ โwhy is it always this that ends our arguments...?
ย โ โ
โ โ
( a sigh. he pulled the pack of cigarettes out his coat, plucking one from it and handing it to quackity. he shrugged. )
ย โ โย โ โย โ โnot at all. . . , but i do feel that you need that brain of yours โโ otherwise, you might lose it like many others.
ย โ โ
โ โ
ย โ โย โ โย โ โthats the thing, quackity, you're amusing... but you're also frustrating sometimes i just want to.. pick your brain and serve it on a plate.
( he huffed, crossing his arms over his chest again as his eyes darted away. )
ย โ โ
โ โ
( he practically crushed the cigarette with his teeth with the rage that built up with the last remark. he snapped to look at him. he reached and grabbed the shorter's collar. )
ย โ โย โ โย โ โan entertainment? quackity, i am *NOT your court jester. get it

โ โ
( he grumbled, crossing his arms and using one hand to slip out a lighter and cigarette from his coat. he shook his head pressing it to his lip and lighting it. a groan. )
ย โ โย โ โย โ โshut up, quackity. you've had enough fun.
ย โ โ
โ โ
ย โ โย โ โย โ โright, i see.
( a short answer, but one that conveyed his tone nonetheless. he shifted his stance a bit before removing his hand from quackity's face. he wouldn't even dare try prying his wrist from the other's grip. )
ย โ โ
โ
( his knees seemed to buckle. he laughed, nervously. the taller began to, slowly, inch his hand away from the other's face.
' you can be really sweet sometimes. . . '
quackity's voice echoed through his skull like the bell of church prime ringing through the lands.
