Ofc So Since you made the anim imma start

Ebony makes a muffled noise of complaint, wiggles out to poke his head outta the blanket, realizes it’s Jack and leans against him. “Mmmmmm.”

“Mm.. I just don’t wanna get up.” Ebony mumbles. “I’m just.. tired.”

Ebony wiggles a bit. “Can you lemme go now- you don’t hafta stay here with me- you can go.. uh.. do whatever you’d like today?.. im just- I don’t wanna make your day boring.. I’ll probably just- be here.. all day..”

Ebony pouts as well. “Buuut jackkiiieeee you’ve probably got something planned today- I don’t wanna ruin anything... I’ll be okkkkkk.”

Ebony looks surprised. “Wait.. really?..”

“Well.. what’d you have planned..?”

“Liiiike?” Ebony sits up, resting against Jacks chest

Oooookkk..”

Ebony looks a lil happier. “Heh..”

Ebony makes embarrassed bird noises and wiggles

Ebony rests his chin on Jacks head. “..mm.. I love you too..”

Ebony kisses his forehead

Ebony taps his forehead. “Heh. Wellll.”

“Mm.. lemme get dressed firrsttt.”

Ebony shoos Jack outta the room. “Gooooo- unless you wannnnt to watch me change!

Ebony changes into a hoodie and jeans, his shoes very plainly show his mood He’s wearing black and white sneakers,, which he normally wears knee high red healed boots,, so this means he super sad mans

*heeled

Ebony walks downstairs, looking a little uncomfy cause well. This hoodie doesn’t have holes for his wings. “..goddamnit.” He mumbles.

Ebony huffs and shakes his head. “Nnnnothin.” It do be obvious tho

Ebony blinks then laughs. “Ooooookay! Thank you”

Ebony stretches his wings and hugs the jack. "ookk lets go now."

Ebony backs up a bit and watches, confused

Ebony smiles and closes his eyes, covering them as well. "oOoook."

Ebony opens his eyes "Whoa- What is this sudden wi-" he pauses and looks down at the coat and gasps. "..whoa." he then looks up at jack. "jaackkiiee..." he hugs the noose addict tight

"yEEES"

"It so commffyyy.." The ebony pouts. "But now i can't steal youuuur jackettt.."

"Oo. yay!"

"mmmmm. Im an immortal bird boy. i've had many many lifetimes of practice perfecting the 'harmless little cutie' act." Ebony grins

"Yay!" Ebony beams

Ebony makes giggly bird noises

"yessir!"

Ebony wiggles a bit and then clings to the jackie

The ebony is obviously feeling better already as he rests his head on Jacks shoulder. "Welllll where we goin"

"But willl iiii?" Ebony covers his eyes

(his as in his own)

Ebony grins. "Hahaha!!" ((also hru

Ebony uncovers his face and gives the jack a kiss on the cheek. "There. for you. for putting up with my nonsense." ((oh no. why an angy?

"Heh." Happi bird ((wait what- no i wont,,?

Ebonys pretty happy ((what no- i wont- i wont i promise- you can tell me anything- I dont usually get angry-? and i know you dont do things/act a certain way without a valid reason..

Ebony smiles ((fine. Tell me on discord then. I can help you when i get my phone. There no drama. no public speaking. but if your really sure you want to wait till you just- blow up about it go ahead,, i just. i just want to help.

Ebony is also happy ((thank you.

Ebony stifles a small yawn and hugs onto him. ((im really sorry if i made anything worse-

I'll be on discord in about uh, two hours,,))

Ebony is also quiet ((you sure?

Ebony opens his eyes. "mm?" ((okkk, and thats good! thats great!!

Ebony smiles. "Whats thisssss place..?" ((wooohooo!!

"but whatt iiiiiis iiiitttT?" ((thats great!

"Awh." Ebony smiles

Ebony follows him

Ebony stares around the room, amazed

Ebony watches

Ebony takes it then takes a small sip and gasps, he looks- well. happy. "whoooa."

Ebony walks with him, sipping his milkshake as he does, his wing vibrating a bit due to happy bird

((brb i needa do a chore

Ebony continues to sip his milkshake then stops after a bit. "its been so long since i've had a proper milkshake.." he smiles small. "its nice.. todays been nice so far.. your nice. and i love you." ((am bak also im so happy that you remembered ebonys old habit of 'i only have milkshakes for meals'

Ebony closes his eyes. "well golly gee willikers." he says teasingly, then his voice gets soft and more,, serious/sad. "..what in the world did i ever do to deserve you..." ((hello wooo. yay OH ALSO i just looked at your oc folder. and i have two things to say,, 1. i was looking to find rogers last name,, since well. him and xenos are married and have conjoined last names and im writing down Tims profile in my oc folder,, and 2 I found someone who'd be an excellent friend/father figure to lil miss nightmare,, and 3- uh i gots my phoen if ya wanna get on discord now-

Ebony then starts crying. (( 1. Oooo ok 2. So. He’s a dream demon turned god of dreams, due to getting in a bit of an.. arguement with the god of time, which led to him being cursed to give dreams to people, but unable to have pleasant dreams if any himself, and he’s physically confined to a garden in the dream dimension, but his “dream self” can travel into the real world. He’s a very nice man and tends to be on the quiet side, and once he’s gotten emotionally attached to someone, he’s very protective, his names Aremen but he goes by Fun. Due to said fight he’s got a very interesting scar/burn on one side of his face, and long term internal damage- which- is kinda killing him- slowly. Cause uh. It’s the god of time he pissed off,, but he could teach miss nightmare how to use her abilities,, and just- be a father figure to her,, 3. Okk

He just cries. “God.. god I.. I don’t d-deserve you.. I don’t deserve you..” ((Yes. They should meet

He just sobs, shaking. “Nononono..no..” ((Yessa.

Ebonys just crying- so so much. ((Mmmmm I willl..) Fun is sitting alone in his garden, quietly sifting through a small pile of leaves, a saddened look on his face

Ebony clings to him, clings softly. Fun sighs and lays down, closing his eyes, his ‘dream self’ appearing in the waking world as he wanders around

Ebony calms down after a bit, then takes another sip of his milkshake. “..sorry about that.” He mumbles around the straw, obviously pretty nervous. Fun is just wandering, he looks- very out of place in this realm ((Imma post an anim of himmmmm Now

Ebony hugs him, hiding his face is Jacks jacket. “Mnnn.. well.. what else did you have planned..?..” Aremen looks up. “Huh? Oh. Hi.”

“Mm.. well... hmmmm..” Ebony thinks for a bit then shakes his now empty milkshake container. “Trash can? That’s what I needa find-“ “Taking a walk.” Aremens voice is quiet, and he’s wearing his mask currently

Ebony chuckles softly and throws the container away. “Thankie.” Aremen exhales slowly then nods. “Ok.”

“Noowww.. hmmmm.” Ebony then reaches up. “I wanna get on your shoulders. And I wantcha to surprise me with where we go!” Aremen nods and starts walking to the left

Ebony holds onto him. “YayyyYYYY!!” Aremen stays close to her side, to keep an eye on the child

Ebony is pleased. Aremen smiles a tiny bit. “Well.. what’s your name kiddo..?”

Ebony holds onto the Jackie, humming happily “Are-“ he coughs a bit. “..fun. They call me Fun.”

Ebony is very happy. Aremen smiles a bit under the mask. "Well. Thank you, Nightmare."

Ebony gives the Jackie a kiss on the top of his head. Aremen looks up at the sky. "I keep forgetting how lovely this place can be sometimes.."

Ebony smiles. "hehe." "Mmhm."

Ebony rests his head on Jacks head. "your hairs soft.." Aremen chuckles softly. "Well. whats a little kid like you doing out here alone?"

Ebony smiles and closes his eyes. "is it weird i'd be a-ok with falling asleep up here." "Huh.."

"No seriously. is it?" Aremen sighs softly and glances at his watch. "hm. i've only got a few more hours to be out and about before i have to get to work.." he mutters to himself

"Reallyyy?" Ebony smiles and hugs jacks head, making sure to not cover his eyes. "heh.. yay.." Aremen thinks for a bit. "Hmmm. lets continue our walk though. if you'd like."

Ebony chuckles softly. "Whaaaaaaat. Imma sleepy bird!" Aremen nods quietly and starts walking again, making sure to walk next to the nightmare child

"Hmph! Yessir! I am the most adorable sleepy bird that has ever fallen asleep on your head!" Ebony exclaims. then pauses. "Oh no. what have you done. Im admitting im adorable. aaaaaaA" ebony makes distressed bird noises. he's never actually looked positively on himself like that before- which. this is a very good thing that he is! Aremen puts his hands in his pockets, humming softly

"I ammmm??" Aremem just hums a lil tune

Ebony hides his face. "aaaaaaa-" Aremen sighs softly. "Well. Could i walk you home? I dont feel alright with leaving you out here.."

"i just-" Ebonys an embarrassed bird "Hm?" Aremen looks at her, confused

Ebony is very embarrassed then gasps. "WAIT WAIT PUT ME DOWN-" he sounds super excited. "Huh.. care to elaborate..?" he pauses. "explain i mean."

Ebony grabs the jacks hand and starts running towards one of the shops. "thisonethisonethisone!!" he is uh. weirdly excited "Well.. i'll ask this then. do you have a physical home? yes or no?"

Ebony leads the jack inside, its uh. well. a shop of lil knickknacks. and raven. is at the front desk. "Oh. Hello." Ebony waves then brings the jack to the back of the shop. "Heeereee. pick something." its a bunch of small boxes, each box is taped shut. "trust me. all the boxes have about six items inside each.. i want you to just.. pick one. you cant look inside though!" "Oh.. i see.." Aremen exhales slowly. "Well... i'd offer to let you stay at my place, but i dont want to creep you out or anything."

"Pick one." Ebony states. "Confusion is just natural! just pick oneeee." Raven is just watching the two curiously from the front desk. "Im not?"

Ebony beams. "Yay. good." and then walks back to the front desk with Jack gently taking the box from him and handing it to Raven Raven chuckles softly and shakes his head after ebony pays for said item. "Huh. Alright. well. here." he removes a small pendant/necklace from his jacket and hands it to her. "Well. theres the spare key. now.. i'll show you how to get there." he leads her over to an odd looking tree. "Now.. put the pendant into that knot right there."

Ebony then put the box in jacks pocket. "stay right there- i'll be right back!" and runs off back to another part of the store. Raven laughs softly. "I hate to say it. And you know i mean no offense by it.. but he's an idiot sometimes. lovable little idiot though. more or less a goofball." The tree commits an open and inside the tree is a small cottage with a very lovely garden. "Cmon in." he gestures for her to go in first. ((me trying to get Raven and Jack to chat about the bird because i just- want the two to have some sort of "hey, we're not friends. but we do bond very well over the fact we have a special relationship with a goofy bird boy" relationship

"Wellll.. that is true." Raven nods. "but 'not exactly' means he can be at times." he pauses. "Speaking of which, yknow that box in your pocket? The only reason he freaked out like he did about seeing this place is cause someone decided to tell him something bizarre about them, he still hasn't told me what though, and he's rather.. obsessed.. about getting one for each person he cares about." Aremen walks in after her. "Its nice isnt it..? i made it myself." he chuckles softly ((mmhm. also little bird boy believes these boxes are magical- and whatever you get inside will bring good luck to the owner of the box- honestly? its slightly true)

Raven smiles small. "We did i suppose. I think his heart might take up most of his body." he pauses. "figuratively." then he looks curious. "Actually.." then he shakes his head. "no no.. anyways. how've you been? we haven't talked a lot." Aremen smiles sheepishly under the mask. "Well. thank you." ((mmhm. bird boy just wants his friends to have a good life also hi hru

"Huh. Well, I've had my ups and downs." Raven shrugs. "but why only 'you guess'? somethin up?" "well.. its easy." he smiles small then looks worried. "oh. also. dont go beyond the fence around the garden ok? you could get hurt.." ((mmhm! and ugevihfsiuhidg i hope you feel better :( im,, empty??

"Ah.." Ebony returns with a few more things. "okokok! here! sorry for taking so long. i got lost." Raven snorts a bit before well- scanning the items and ruffling the birds hair after he pays. "Well. i hope you two have a good day" Aremen nods and then heads into the cottage, removing his mask as he does. ((mmmhm. im just, not feeling anything right now?

Ebony is a very happy bird. "You have a good day toooo!" Raven nods. "Stay safe." Aremen, didn't even notice the child followed him in and lightly runs his hand along the wall, since this is the dream dimension- he can manipulate everything here, and the house's interior changes drastically, aka, a buncha kinda weird things disappear and a new door exists. "Alright w-" he turns and looks surprised. "Oh- you.. followed me in already. well. here. you can stay in this room." he gestures to new door room. ((well- thank you ig??

Ebony clings to the jackie for a bit, then wiggles. "cmoon lets go find somewhere nice to sit and you can open your box!" Aremen chuckles softly and opens the door for her, its uh. an empty room, he frowns slightly. "Huh. thats never happened before.. but here. hold my hand. i'll let you decorate it." he smiles, putting one hand on the wall and holding his other out to nightmare. ((hevfugsrtiufhcoe

Ebony smiles and leads him to a small park and sits down in the grass and pats the spot next to him. "here!" "Now.. you just. think about what you'd like your room to be like.. best to keep it simple, i've uh. never tried to do this before." he smiles awkwardly ((iufhirughv uiwrhgivuhert

Ebony leans against him and takes the box outta jacks pocket and hands it to him. "oppennn iiit." hes smiling. Aremen raises his eyebrows. "my my.. thats.. interesting honestly." he smiles small. "Your an odd one.. but thats just fine." ((yes

Inside the box is a small crystal, an odd looking silver trinket that looks like a human knuckle bone, a ring, a feather, a skeleton key, and a pocket watch. Aremen takes his hand off the wall as the room changes to fit the form she'd like it to take. "Vola." only weird thing is one of the eyes on the ceiling is an "I" Aremen chuckles. "Well. thats not right." ((yes

"yeeeh!!" Ebony looks amazed as he picks up the knuckle bone. "i wonder if its realllll.." Aremen chuckles. "Like it?" the bed is slightly fancier then she originally thought it up as. ((yesi

Ebony takes his knife out and gently scrapes at the silver on the bone and gasps. "Holy shit. its just silver paint on an actual bone. whoooaaaa." The pocket watches glass is slightly cracked and the watch itself is a copper color with something carved into the back, but its unclear what it is. Aremen smiles. "Alright. good. well. i have to go now.. so.. make yourself at home. theres food in the fridge and the tv does work.. and there shoullddd be some toys in that box by your bed.. along with a notebook and drawing supplies.." ((aremen: clueless about children but wants to be a good person

Ebony picks up the feather and pauses. "Wait. no. wait how the hell?" he holds the feather up to one of his own secondary feathers, weirdly enough, they look identical. "Ok. This went from cool creepy to how the hell creepy.." Aremen smiles nervously and gently pets her head. "I'll be home in a bit.." ((i have the saddest thing to do when he gets home,, and well he's good with kids- but. doesn't understand them lmao

Ebony pulls out one of his own feather with a soft gasp of pain and hands both to Jack. "look at that. they're identical. its freaky-" Aremen then disappears. ((Well. yknow how i said Aremens got permeant internal damage? well. that usually involves either coughing up blood, random nose bleeds, or just a lot of pain, mix all of them together cause he over works himself and you get a man coming home, bleeding, and passing out on the floor. ah- well. this'll be interesting.)

"Did this box maker person steal my feathers.. or find some other poor bird guy or just a bird with the same feathers as me..?" evvventually Aremen returns- through the front door, slightly hunched over he walks inside and towards one room, but collapses before he gets there. ((awh- yay

"hmmmmm.. oh well!" Ebony chuckles softly. "You gotta cool watch now!" Aremens just on the floor. ((mmmmmgm

"Of course handsome." Ebony smiles. Aremen pushes himself up. "..yeah. yeah im f-fine.." the small bit of blood that drips from his mouth as he speaks says otherwise. (("Hey Mr.Fun are you okay?" has got to be ones of the best lines i've ever heard and i dont know why

Ebony smiles more. Aremen nods, then starts coughing violently. ((mmhm

Ebony smiles and cuddles close. Aremen covers his mouth and just- coughs and coughs, after a bit he stops, breathing raggedly, blood dripping from his fingers. "..oh no not noww.." ((uvifedrved yes

Ebony smiles. "hehe." Aremen breathes in shakily. "im.. im sorry-" ((EDGY WING

Ebony makes happy bird sounds "Im still sorry.." ((broooOOO EDGYY WINNGGG

Ebony happy “Okkkk..” ((Yessir

eBay boi kisses the Jackie on the cheek. Aremen weakly hugs her back. ((Yes

“I looove you.” “Mmmmm.. ok ok.” ((Sisi

“Yayyy!” Aremen stumbles a bit. “Your a strong little girl aren’t you.” He chuckles quietly. ((Sisi discord also

“Yayy!!!” Ebony happy bird. “That’s good.” Aremen smiles a bit more. “Well. I’ll be in my room if you need me..” and he heads to his room ((Yes

Ebony kisses the Jackie hugging him back tightly Aremen lays on his bed and ends up drifting off eventually Only to have another vicious nightmare, wake up, and just lay there ((Yessi

Ebony pulls away after a bit and nuzzles him. Aremens just laying in bed, wide awake. ((Yes

Ebony smiles small. Aremen sits up a bit. “Oh hey..” ((Helloo

Ebony is very happy. “Whatcha doin in here..?” He’s just curious ((Helluu

Ebony super happy. “Oh.. well.. that’s really sweet of you..” ((Mmhm

Enony snuggles close. “Pretty much..” ((Kk

Ebony coos softly then blinks. “Whoa. I made a bird noise.” Aremen sighs softly. “Well. You wanna stay with me in here for the night..? I rather like your company.. and I think it’d be best if you keep an eye on me- just in case.” ((Blaah

Ebony looks embarrassed. “D’aw..” “Alrighty.” ((Bleeeh
