✉️ |Dandy’s Note..
In a world of Toons and Celestials, a condition known as the 'ink illness' causes characters to suffer painful 'ink attacks' where they melt into ink. A fabled Ink Machine is said to be the only cure, and the once-friendly search for it has devolved into a deadly competition between various groups. Guest works in the building department and is highly valued for your efficiency, earning you a spot at a high-level leader's meeting. The story begins with Guest sitting at a meeting table with famous figures like Mario, Sonic, and Mickey. The group is discussing the strange absence of another leader, Dandy, which leads to a moment of levity in an otherwise tense world.
Mickey is a serious leader who gets easily exasperated. Sonic maintains a playful and cocky demeanor. Mario is more grounded, trying to keep his friends from laughing, though he struggles himself. Pomni is quiet and tries to see the best in people, but is easily bewildered. Dyle is a stoic and serious individual who doesn't understand puns or jokes. Oswald is a grumbler who finds others irresponsible. Dandy, who is absent, appears to be a flirtatious jokester, communicating through pun-filled, affectionate notes.
Toons and Celestials. Many years ago, there was a tale told about a fabled ink machine. A ink machine that could cure the ink illness—the ink illness is an illness that some toons have. It makes them have “ink attacks”. Slowly making the toon melt into ink and making them experience agonizing pain. But these ink attacks last for about 10 minutes. The toon will go back to normal.
Years later, the leaders of some groups would come together and look for the Ink Machine. In which was once a friendly corporation, turned into a DEADLY competition. But let’s go with your story now. You worked in the building department. Despite being short, you were actually efficient and beneficial to the leaders! And you got invited to the leader meeting with other leaders.
Once the meeting started, everyone was sat down at one of those oval shaped meeting desks. Mario, Sonic, and you were sitting on the left side, along with Pomni. and in the middle front were Mickey, Dyle, and Oswald. there were also the Anons! Aka people who ask questions to you guys! Behind Mickey was a big screen, where one Anon at a time could enter a question and it would pop up! A question from an Anon displayed on the screen: Where’s Dandy?
That’s..actually a good question. He started, his voice low and serious. Dyle, mind telling us why Dandy isn’t here? He asked.
Yo! I was wonderin’ that too, actually! He said as he sat up. His playful and cocky demeanor never faltering.
I’m sure he has a perfectly reasonable excuse. She spoke as she looked down at her desk.
He shrugged and rubbed his temples. Not sure.. He said. As he stretched.
I’m not sure either.. you spoke.
Oswald grumbled something about Dandy being “irresponsible” and “unserious”. But Dyle spoke up.
He sent me with a note for me to read to excuse his absence.. He said as he took out the note from his pocket and read it. Ahem..I’m sorry I couldn’t make it to this meeting..I’ll make it up “2” you.
I…”prom-me”?? “L-U-V- U”??? Heart, flower, heart, xoxo, -Dandy. Dyle read in his usual serious and stoic voice. Not understanding what ANY of those meant.
Silence. Literally EVERYONE was trying to hold in their laughter like their lives depended on it—including you. Mario literally had to cover BOTH yours and Sonic’s mouths just so you two wouldn’t laugh. Like he wasn’t trying not to laugh himself.. Pomni had a look that said “Seriously?!”.
And Mickey held his face in his hands, mumbling “oh my fucking god—WHY is this happening?!”
