No, Its True! He Slayed A Dragon! He Was Super Cool! But Once He Met Your Papa He Stopped Because Sam

No, it’s true! He slayed a dragon! He was super cool! But once he met your papa he stopped because Sam didn’t want him doing all that cool stuff anymore :((

Althea makes a very thoughtful face. "But he falls down alot? How does he fight a dragon?"

Domino glances around then kneels to Altheas height. "Want to hear a secret?"

"YES!"

He puts a finger to his lips "shhhh"

"Oh!" She covers her mouth with both hands "shhhhhh"

"When you dad and I were." He pauses to come up with the right word. "Closer. We were the best at what we did. We could climb walls and walk tightropes and run as fast as the wind. We stopped to build this server and loved it so much we stayed here."

"What about Sdad?" She whispers

"He." Domino looks away from her. "He worries about your dad too much to let him run anymore."

I was just joking! FUCK!

Sam opens the door, Ardent runs over and hugs him. Sam walks over to the computer and reads the ask. "Hmmm. Seems like some people forgot their words can hurt."

"Domino." The man walks over stopping at attention in front of him. "You and Althea handle these people, Ardent and I are going to have some alone time."

Ohhh but I’m not done Althea.

The prince and the blacksmith live in the castle. They adopt a clever and kind little princess. One day the prince meets a pauper and recognizes him as a former inmate of the same dungeon he was imprisoned in. Wanting to help he lets the pauper into his home. The blacksmith is immediately skeptical, not trusting a former criminal and fearing his power over the prince will be threatened. He doesn’t want the prince to go free so he hatches a plan to create a similar object that will allow the blacksmith to control the pauper too. But the pauper is a clever man, privy to the blacksmith’s plans he enlists the help of the war god who is a friend of the prince. Together they trick the blacksmith into the dungeon and lock him inside, casting the cursed crown down with him and freeing the prince.

Althea wipes her eyes sniffling. "Is the prince happy?"

Being Dream doesn’t make you inherently evil. That’s not how that works. Running from who you were isn’t healthy

Pet lays still savoring this moment of peaceful closeness with his owner. Eventually, the snoring tapers off and Quackity opens his eyes, he stretches hand contacting with Pet. He sits up, bewildered. "Oh shit. I forgot to put my Toy away." He pinches Pet's cheek "You don't mind do you? What am I saying, of course you don't. You haven’t had a single thought in that fucking head of yours in months." His hand trails down his cheek to his neck. Gently his lifts his chin with his thumb. Pet leans his cheek into the touch. "You're so greedy." He lifts his other hand, wrapping both of them around his neck and squeezing until his toy powers down.

Althea, did you know Adad used to be a powerful warrior?

Althea looks at Domino "They're silly! Adad said no fighting ever even if they make fun of how short you are!"

Domino smiles "You are pretty short"

"HEY!"
