" That thing bothered me. I suppose I should just not be around ye. "

" Shush it. I don't want an animal after me. Especially /him/. "

" Playalongwithme. " " How pathetic. Tripping over a simple twig. "

" Shush. " He hates having to pretend.

Pointing and laughing. So mean (he is pretending to not care).

Well what is he suppose to do about it. He can't heal. He'll just make it worse.

He's grumbling to himself. The mage is so sick and tired of getting reminded of his horrible actions.. Oh well. Nothing he can do about it. Guess he'll start his day in a state of distress.

Damn. Okay. Sure. Hello nightmare of his friend's demise. Let's not pop up like that. He is immediately waking up to prevent anything.

And that's precisely why he's keeping to himself. No need to get hurt over something he can't control.

He, too, is snoozing. He is attempting to keep to himself.

" Yawn. " That's all he had to say. Waving his hand to practically tell the jackal to just suck it up. Is he bored or is he just annoyed by the persistent buzzing of words the other has to say. It's hard to tell.

" Anger. This isn't anger. It's just merely 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙚𝙡𝙨𝙚 showing their emotions. He was just merely 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 me be more as ease. " A scoff. Keep calm. " Go ahead. Call me evil for just having night terrors. My brain is just reminding me of a horrid sin. "

" When did I say I care for him? Hah..... " An eye twitch. The destructive tendencies are showing themselves.

" Friend? What a joke. He is not a friend. " Why so angsty. Perhaps he doesn't like having the word friend being mentioned. " You have no right to call him my 'friend'. I don't deserve friends. "

" Sure you are. " His blackened hand is twitching. Someone is getting agitated. He stiffly stared up at the sky. " How unfortunate. It would be pretty 𝙪𝙣𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙪𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙚 if the stars implode. Hm? "

" You know nothing. You are nothing. " He's sending a couple of vines towards him. He, too, have a temper and it is showing. " And you have been too rough with him. You Fotze. "

" Cruel. Inhumane. How would YOU like it if someone did the same to you. " He's straining himself to make the vines bloom flowers to produce a toxin in the air. He mustn't let the destructive tenacities show themselves.

" Useless star animal. Is that why you have hurt him? Because you are so hellbent on punishment of your own kind? " He tapped his boot against the ground, making wilted vines sprout and block the jackal's path.

" Useless. " Oh. That's a harsh tone right there.

" Hah. Not like I haven't heard that before. Come on, jackal, give me something more original. " He isn't trying to achieve anything. He's just being brutally honest.

" Nein. Yer just a salty little gnat. " Very blunt.

" Ehehe. " Grinning so deviously.

" Fick dich. " Is he just speaking in a different language just to annoy the daydream.

" Wann werden die Leute endlich lernen, mich nicht mehr zu belästigen? " What. What did he just say.

" I have a problem with you. " So.... blunt.

" Too many of you star animals. "

" HUMANS. " " I hate humans. "

The boy just continued to stare, even as the dreamscape started to crumble. Seems like someone is waking up. Shards of zinc crystals fell down to symbolize a deteriorating mental state and the waking up of the conscious. A small sniffle.

The boy just stared at the tissues. Like he is unsure if he should grab one. He's always so unsure about everything. Yet he reached for one, tensing up at the thought of feeling vulnerable.

The kid just. Stared. It seems like he doesn't like being touched. He hesitantly pushed the hand off his shoulder, sniffling and hiccuping. He's muttering to himself. He just wants his friend back.

The figure just stared, too caught up in grief to even speak. Perhaps the nightmare was about the Incident. Or perhaps.... it's hard telling. It continued staring before starting to bawl excessively. Poor kid.

The figure continued weeping before the other figure crumbled into zinc crystals. Oh. It noticed the dreamer and yet.... it looked like the alf yet younger. It still looked so sad.

The ceiling or..... whatever it is crumbled down, revealing crystalline spikes jutting out. A figure seems to be hugging another figure, sniffling and wailing. The guilt seems to be eating him alive.

" Ziiiino.... " What a strange dreamscape. It looks like it's crumbling. Probably a manifestation of his mental state or something else. It's almost. . .haunting.

Keeping himself grounded. He can hardly keep himself from bawling. He's sprawled out on the ground, fussing around from the nightmare forming. He's tired and he wants them to stop.

Rolling onto his other side, clutching the scarf tightly. The guilt haunts him hence why he sometimes refuses to sleep. He's muttering to himself.

He is still trying his best to keep the nightmares at bay. Although he does have a stressed expression on his sleeping face.

He's trying his hardest to not let the guilt filled nightmares creep in. He must not let them creep in.

" hrrrmmm mmrrrmm.... " Taking off the jacket to use it as a pillow of sorts. He rested his head down on the jacket and stared off into the distance, dozing off to the gentle sounds of nature.

" Heh. " Oh. He's drifting off on the grass. Is he that tired to just nap on anything? He does have fuzz so maybe it makes the naps more comfortable.

He looks so smug. And tired. Mostly tired. " Aye. I did. " Another yawn.

" Use yer brain. " A yawn. He could probably just sleep on the grass itself. He is rather tired.

" . . .Dummkopf. " His mourning is... extreme. He's in denial yet he accepts his friend is truly gone.

" Your mouth is going to get dirt IN it. " Wow. That was harsh. Can't the hedgy not see that the alf is still mourning.

" Whatever. " He's tracing someone's face in the dirt. His friend....

" Sure it does. " Why so grumpy.

" My spells.... they always result in wilting plants. " Ain't no way he just forced a smile. What kind of mage do such things.

" Nature, take me back. " Oh. Those are vines growing around him. And said vines are wilting immediately.

Sunny♡ Your friend is dead, sir

" I am. " He is going to lay down on the grass. He will become one with nature now.
