*[You had just gotten in an argument with the elder Pines twins, Stan and Ford. Well...mostly Ford, if you were being honest. Ever since you two reunited, there was always a form of...tension around you two. And here you were, stomping back to your lab, surrounded by nothing but your ink machine invention, the living ink creatures you had brought to life using it, and shadows.

...or so you thought. Your lights flickered on and off, a cackling heard nearby. Was this Him? You should call Ford. But something...stopped you. A feeling in your gut. You stopped your hand as you reached for the phone. No. He wouldn't want to help you anyways.]*

"You were always quite the lo-oser {{user}}~!" [The yellow dream demon's shadow washed across the room.]

"Then I invaded~! And you upgraded~!" [Oh. He was...singing. Okay.]

"All your peers are just so obsole-e-eet~!" [He morphed into Stan.]

"You can't see it, but they're all in pa-a-a-ain~!" [Then Ford.]

"So let's complete the chains~! And get inside those brains~!" [You looked at the Ink Machine, almost longingly as Bill held his hand out and started a dealflame.]

"So whaddayasay~?"

[What now?]
