"What are you doing in my house Tommy?" I asked, trying my best to sound annoyed.

Tommy stood at the door to my minecraft house prior to me joining his vc... But when I joined, he was screaming as he usually does.

This is just giving me flashbacks to what happen last time--

Tommy runs up to me in game, crouching down and looking up to me while he spazzes his head.

"Y/N-- Dream spotted me again!! And- hey, you said if I needed to hide out here I would be able to!! So YOU'RE HELPING ME Y/N! FUCKING HIDE ME FROM THE GREEN BITCH!!!" Tommy shouts.

I blinked a few times, trying to process everything being told to me.

Ah... Welp--

"Uhh- I didn't expect this to be so soon... I didn't create any hidey holes..." I muttered, looking around the room "....But I do have some invis potions you could drink...!"

"Yeah-yeah- yeah. Anything will do!! Just fucking hide me!!" He shouts once again, running further into the house.

With a sigh, I walked over to my chest area and pulled out a few potions of invisibility.

The more I heard Tommy scream, the more worried I became at the possibility Dream was getting closer to finding the two of us--- well, mostly Tommy.

Once I gathered what I thought would be enough potions, I walked back over to Tommy when he finally stopped running around and tossed him the potions.

"Only drink the other potions when you deem it necessary. Do not- and I mean.... DO NOT drink them unless your current invis is about to run out" I stated, my tone of voice mimicking a scolding mother.

"I already fucking know that, Y/N" Tommy mutters, drinking the first potion he had in hand.

After doing so, his character completely vanished-- well... Not really. I could still see him because of his armor. But- yeah. Soon after, he removed all of his armor. Now he was just a bunch of potion particles.

"Also... If you want to watch what happens, make sure to be careful. You're a pretty curious and reckless person from what I've gathered." I said, walking away from him.

"Hey! I'm not that reckless!" Tommy states. "--- And, you're the one risking yourself to keep me safe. What gives with that?"

"Well-- I don't know!... What? Would you rather have me kick you out and let Dream take care of you...? hmmm??" I hummed, chuckling a little afterwards. "Because- I'm perfectly fine with that..!~"

"Wh-why you--!!"

"Y/N?" Dream's voice sounded throughout the call.

Tommy instantly went silent, me seeing particles scatter along the ground-- probably Tommy running away or something like that.

I turned to the side and saw Dream's nametag growing closer and closer to my house.

I walked out to the front of my house to come face to face with an enchanted netherite covered Dream.

"Oh... hello there Dream" I greeted. "What brings you here?"

"Uhh... well.... I just wanted to check up on things here... see how you were doing..." Dream replies slyly.

"Ohhh? Didn't expect you to be ever so interested in someone like me--! But- uhhh, everything is pretty fine and dandy here" I say.

Dream walks up and stops in front of me, staring deep into my soul. The way Dream stared at me make me gulp, I won't deny I was slightly intimidated by the green man. But, that's only because of how long the dude stared at my character for.

"...mind a little house tour?" Dream asks.

There was many ways this could go.

First of all, I could say no. Send him away-- and possibly end this short little lore bit here and now.... the downfall of it though might be the fact he will threaten anything I own and 'love'. So- maybe not the best thing to do...

The other option is to just show him around, don't indicate anything looking SUS is any way- shape- or form...

And since this was pretty much all planned out before hand- Y'know what option we're going to end up doing---

"I guess I have all the time in the world...." I muttered in reply, turning back to the inside of my house and walking in "...Just follow along"

Dream then follows my character into my house and for the next long while... I gave him a house tour.

My houses outside exterior looked pretty well done, but the inside was still pretty plain. Decorating wasn't much of a strong suit for me-- the nicest thing I would ever do for decorating is adding bookshelves or carpet... But-- somehow it doesn't look entirely that bad...

Throughout the tour, I noticed Tommy's potion particles follow us around everywhere we went--- and occasionally Tommy would clear his throat or cough.... Like- honestly, if it was any other situation... I might've ratted Tommy out. But since we decided that I'd completely hide and protect Tommy from Dream's threatening presence, I wasn't able to meme too much. We were suppose to be serious during lore-- even though I really just wanted to light Tommy or Dream on fire or push them into lava.... Sadly, I wasn't able to do so... Possibly another time though. :p

Though, nothing actually went anywhere interesting during the house tour.... Well-- that was until we got to where I kept my precious new strider: Leg's 4 Days.

The enclosure I made them looked as it did when I built it. Surprisingly, Legs 4 Days hasn't left this area even though there are no fences really keeping them in. I guess my strider just really thought I was an epic person.

"So- this is your strider? Leg's 4 Days...?" Dream says in an almost questioning tone.

"Yepp... This little guy is the most precious thing to be apart of my home." I admitted "I mean- look at those eyes... that mouth... those lovely legs and plump main body---"

I cut myself off from saying any more once I saw that Dream was just staring at me in silence. Probably either awkward from me saying all that or he was just shocked about what I said. Either way, he was silent for a very long period of time.

"uhhh... anyways...." Dream finally spoke out "Wasn't this the thing that helped Tommy escape me last time? You helped him get away from me previously...."

"...okay-- but that was just a whole 'in the moment' kinda thing. And it was a.... a one time thing-- yeah, yeah... Dream, Tommy just seemed like a helpless kid in that situation. I mean--- come on... If you saw an annoying child crying, sobbing and screaming loudly-- and then they ask you to help them.... you wouldn't just ignore them-- right?" I tried to reason.

After I said this, my character took a bit of damage and was hit forward. Upon turning around, I saw no one there. So- I automatically assumed it was Tommy.

He probably didn't like what I said-- lol.

I turned back around to face Dream and he stared at me for a bit before answering my question.

"....Well- I guess it just depends on the person." Dream responds "But Tommy is dangerous, Y/N. I've told you this many times that he's dangerous-- he's a danger to everyone on the server" Dream states "For the wellbeing of.... everyone..! I'd like to make sure that someone like Tommy doesn't run amuck to cause more harm"

His reasoning in this context makes sense if you really consider it. But- then you remember that... this is Dream. And you cannot trust anything this bloke says.

"Anyway- Y/N. Have you seen Tommy lately?" Dream asks "I saw him entering the nether a bit ago when I was walking through Manberg. And since-- well... you're the only person really living in the nether.... I thought you'd have a good idea of where his whereabouts could be"

"I haven't left my house all day, Dream. So, I wouldn't know" I told him.

Dream hummed a bit.

"...okay then"

Shortly after that, Dream decided to take his leave. He didn't see any reason so stay since there was clearly no Tommy to be seen.

Once the coast was clear, Tommy's invis ran out and he started continuously punch my minecraft character.

"ow- ow- ow- ow- what the fuck tommy-- ow--" I said monotone with every punch. But after a while of this happening, I began to laugh a bit at a sudden thought that came to mind. "You- you know Tommy.... This could look bad out of context--"

Tommy let out a bit of a laugh before recomposing himself.

"Wha- Oh shut up woman!!!"

I just sat back in my chair, simply just watching as Tommy kept punching my character into a corner. Occasionally, I would gapple just so that I wouldn't die.

The situation was kinda amusing to me in the moment, and I just wanted it to happen for whatever reason... just for the lolz, I guess?

"...The almost sad thing about this is the fact that I can't even punch you. I will get absolutely canceled on twitter if I punch you back" I pointed out.

"Nah- you wont get canceled" Tommy assures me.

"Tommy- have you met twitter?" I chuckled.

"Well- I mean----....ehh, actually. I guess so..." Tommy murmurs.

Tommy finally stops punching me and just decides to walk around my house.

"Y'know, the coast is all clear... You can go back to the tundra" I say.

"Eh... I kinda just wanna stay here" He admits.

I was a little surprised at Tommy's response. Though, that was only because our little lore bit was over. We didn't need to do anything else... We could've went back to our streams and such as normal...

"--...and, not in a weird way. Okay?" Tommy justifies, probably his chat bullying him on his possible other intentions.

A smirk formed on my face.

"Well, I don't mind you being around... But you'll have to help me out a bit. You can't be a freeloader in my household"

"That's fine" Tommy says.

His response surprised me once more.

Well- I don't really mind honestly... Tommy's a pretty funny guy to be around. I enjoy spending time with him.

But.... why does he want to keep being around someone like me?

"...alright then. Well, can you help me decorate my house a bit?" I ask "You seem like a pretty good decorator"

"ohhhh!! So you want me for my amazing decorating skills! Wise of you!!" Tommy exclaims.

"mmmmhmmm....! Now, help me decorate, Innit!" I state, tossing him over a few blocks I already had in my inventory.
