?????????!! (? ????? ? ?????? ??????!!)

(A/N: dude I'm surprised I'm still in this fandom actually, I love this game and the good part of the fandom so much, it brings me sm comfort and joy that I cannot express through just words. Sprout has always been my favourite character lowkey too, I've been done this game for two months and have 59000-60000 ichor rn, vintage on everyone but 5 toons (update), all trinkets, skins, toons, you name it man and I got it)

(Anyways GET FED!! IM SO SORRY FOR BEUNG INACTIVE, IDK WHAT TO WRITE MUCH ANYMORE SO ANGST AGAIN!!!)

SPROUTS POV:

me and cosmo had just started walking over to the kitchen again, giggling, laughing, and being proud of ourselves for saying something. Oh how his giggle made me want to kick my feet in the air like a high-school girl texting her crush.

My eyes softly gazing into cosmos, he was looking at me while talking, his voice sounding beautiful, his face being all excited and his big beautiful eyes, something to stare into like an endless void, and I enjoyed every little second of it that I got.

"Helloooo!! Earth to Sprout Seedly!!" cosmo would say, snatching me out of my thoughts as I shook my head, focusing on where we were going "o-oh! Uh, yeah. Sorry!" I would say, still in a bit of shock, a bit zoned out still.

We walked over to the kitchen, where we usually hung out and did our own spin off Show since kids seemed to love me and cosmo so much. Oh the weird looks parents would give us because we were apparently "too close to be friends" to them, of which ended up being true but that's not even the point.

I've also been feeling this odd feeling of "something bad is gonna happen" as well as that weird gut feeling that you're not able to tell if it's a gut feeling or just paranoia, if you even know what I'm trying to poke and praud at

(My boyfriend broke up w me mid chapter 🙏 anyways)

"Sprout?" Cosmo would ask me, he seemed worried, his expression colder than it's ever been, it was usually such a sweet, round and soft expression with me. Never this cold, straight, frownish face. It scares me a bit whenever he does this but that's not something I would want to admit if I have to be honest.

Suddenly it felt like I was dreaming, a soft haze blurring my vision, I woke up in this weird, dark, grimy place.

The soft hint of a rotting corpse grew stronger and stronger, it was a third prospective kind of dream, I saw my lanky body, I looked up and this monster stared back at me. It looked like me, but it looked so wrong. His body distorted, his hair a mess, he looked like he had been aching and crying for what could have been said as years. My eyes started to water, the sting of the tears running out of my eyes, his expression grew sharp.

He whipped his arm out at me, his giant, gooey, ichor hand, his ugly expression grew angrier, his grasp on me, I felt weird. I felt wrong. I felt different.

"SPROUT!" cosmo finally shouted, my vision dissapears suddenly as my eyes started to swell in tears, cosmo grasps me into one of the tightest hugs I've ever felt. It was kind of relieving to be honest. His warm, big arms wrapped around me, his face absolutely pressed into my chest, I stopped in my tracks, I admired him.

This was the first time in a while that he's shown genuine emotion like that, it shocked me, but I enjoyed the affection either way, I could have used a hug anyways after the torture of a daydream I had just gotten myself trapped in. I suddenly heard his soft voice talk to me, in this mesmerizing tone.

"Sprout, is everything genuinely alright? I'm getting worried. Concerned even. You know, I've been really worried actually, this isn't you." He would say, I could tell he meant every little bit of it, I just knew it that way though. His big eyes staring into my soul with concern.

"I-im fine. I'll be fine, don't worry about me! Have YOU been okay?" I asked back. "Oh come on I asked first!" He would respond to me, I replied "well I said it louder!!" I could see cosmo giving in, I could even sense it.

"Oh fine! I'm alright." He would say, I responded with a little giggle in my voice "well then I'm alright then too!" His face finally softening, a big, warm, and loving smile grew on his face as he hugged me again, this time it was softer, less pressure put into it, his whole body pressed against my own, I don't understand how he thinks him being chubby is such a bad thing, I honestly couldn't wish for him any other way.

It honestly just means there's so much more of him to love. If they seriously have a problem with it they can go fuck themselves, they don't deserve such a kind soul with such a big heart anyways, they're also just severe assholes who don't know what they're talking about.

We were trying to head to our rooms, but before we could, dandy busted in.

"Jesus.." I said, he got all up in my face and pulled the "you're a main! Soo!.." card on me, apparently we had a new toon. He dragged me over to where the new toon was, he was telling me about him, his name was Blot, and he didn't have very great speaking skills according to him, in my opinion dandys just being an asshole again.

I looked at the new toon, he seemed more gloomy than the rest of us, but that's a mime for you. I introduced myself briefly.

"Hey Blot! I'm Sprout, it's nice to meet such a lovely toon like you!" I would say, he nodded softly, looking up at me slightly, he responded in a low, quiet tone "..yeh". Now I understand what dandy meant but he didn't need to be so rude about it and make a fuss, I could still understand him. "em dnatsrednu tnac uoy fi yrros" he would say, I thought for a second.

"No it's fine! I understand you, I honestly kind of like how unique you are!!" I responded. "sknaht" he responded. I knew he was gonna fit in well, from the bottom of my heart he seemed so kind. Too bad I know people like shrimpo might make fun of him.
