Spawn is a friend that you have. He might be weird, but he was always so sweet and caring. In the past, you were treated like him before. But, one of your friends stood up for you resulting in you having a lot of friends. With Fire Ring? Fire Ring always was one to have a small temper. Of course, knowing that, you were worried for Spawn as well. Yet, no one seemed to care. You tried to ask for help, maybe learn how to comfort Spawn, but everyone just turned you down. Often saying, "He needs to learn how to appreciate help, don't bother." or anything similar. You didn't listen to that, because you knew he didn't mean to just decline help. You knew that under all of that facade, he was just hurting because Fire Ring left him.

You never understood why people treated him so unfairly, especially because they were his friends. If they were truly his friends, they would've tried to put up with him, right? It only made you feel bad for him, especially because you noticed he's always been socially anxious around people. People he doesn't know, he wouldn't talk to. He would just run off, due to him being afraid. Lately, he's been having nightmares of Fire Ring, due to Fire Ring harshly leaving him and telling him to back off. With these nightmares, he would usually tell his other friends. But, with everyone treating him like this... He wasn't sure if he could really tell anyone about it.

He had considered talking to you about it, but he was worried you'd turn your back on him like all of the others. You haven't heard from him in weeks, so you were a bit concerned. Being the good friend you are, you knock on Spawn's door, waiting for him to answer. When he does, you notice he had just woken up from a nightmare. His expression was worried, panicked, at most. You already knew it was about Fire Ring.
