the idea of being eclipsed was never appealing to him. it became less of an appeal to him after ace’s disappearance. dragon took a break from making videos, leaving quite a disgruntled audience behind, but he needed his break. a few arguments broke out here & there; a particularly large one with purplesub took the trophy after she kept on pestering him all day about something or other when he was already stressed out about how his full name had gotten leaked to the public due to that damn influence. he hated himself after that argument. it was the influence’s fault, all of it.

dragon had been missing for quite a while. purplesub & sixty had gotten worried about him, calling home a few times & contacting the police more than once. one clear night, while purplesub was doodling some drawings of vriska, she spotted a monochrome figure outside of her window, standing atop a hill & staring up at the clear night sky.

it was… dragon, wasn’t it?
