Goldsaw Rifle + Wasp Stinger; Discrete Mathmatics with Ducks + Telepathy for dummies; Your shirt + Wasp Shell



While conversing with your dear sister and best friend, you ponder some more crafting ideas:

GOLDSAW RIFLE + WASP STINGER = VESPIDAE RIFLE, the stinger at the end makes it so that everything shot out of it has a half-chance of inflicting poison

DISCRETE MATHMATICS WITH DUCKS + TELEPATHY FOR DUMMIES = HOW TO INFLICT ANATIDAEPHOBIA, pretty self explanatory, ducks are evil, vicious creatures, after all, inciting the fear of ducks into other people is a powerful skill to be learned

YOUR SHIRT + WASP SHELL = WASPBEELIAM ARMOR, grants you an extra 50% defense on attacks targeted at your chest or arms

Caroline: Sigh

Caroline: Maybe you're right

Caroline: It's just one day, after all, isn't it?

William: Thinking about crafting recipes is a pain

William: You guys talking about Robert?

Payton: yea, and honestly tho, despite the dodgeball drama, robert sounds like a very fun guy, he even likes lemon demon!

William: It's not just dodgeball! Despite being shorter than me, always beats me in basketball, haha

Caroline: hey, with how much of a workout we got here, perhaps some of it will translate into real world agility?

William: We'll see about that

Caroline: Also, he actually told me about his day at work today

Payton: where does he work again?

Caroline: Some convenience store downtown, by the subway. I think it was called the IP store?

William: Oh, I went there once with dad, it's been rebranded to "Miss Eyrie's Nest", if I recall correctly.

Caroline: Robert told me his shift there was crazy

Caroline: Some guy was visibly pissed at the notion that he couldn't smoke or drink indoors, and then proceeded to threaten to piss on the fruits isle

Caroline: Because of that, Rob had to call security and everything.

Caroline: Problem is, he had the opening shift and needed to get the keys from his coworker which lived halfway across town

William: Delilah, Isn't it?

Caroline: Huh? He didn't tell me her name, what makes you say that?

William: She arrived late during physics, told the teacher the exact same thing, had to give the keys to her coworker.

Caroline: Huh, must've been her then.

Payton: oh yea will told me that

Payton: girl's always looking dead

Payton: honestly i wonder if she's okay

Payton: hope she isnt burning herself from work

Caroline: I've also noticed that

William: Sigh

William: She sits alone at lunch, I've noticed

William: Perhaps we could sit with her sometime soon

Payton: agreed

Caroline: That sounds like it could be fun!

William: Anyway, lemme finish those craftings

William: You guys can come help instead of just chilling there as well >:P

>Get up and ponder what exactly happened

>Woah what an absolutely wack-ass dream! Better write it down, lest you forget it!

>William: WRITE DOWN THAT AMAZING DREAM

END OF DREAM 2



You are once again William Willford, and you currently seem to be inside your parents' bedroom. Not sure why or how, but you assume it is once again due to your sleepwalking. You might need to get that checked someday. For now, you are sitting on the floor. Awake, you think.

Your hand feels weird, though you're not sure why. Unless...



Woah what an absolutely wack-ass dream! Better write it down, lest you forget it!



Oh my lord, you’re right, you just had the craziest dream! You quickly take your dad's tablet and note it down before it fades.

"Crazy dream. Dreamt I was in a different version of my house, with monsters and other creatures and stuff like that. Payton and Caroline were there too! I was first looking around with payton and uuh... her teddy bear?? Tori was alive and there as well, for some reason?? And i think there might have been even more people with us, then we explored the house, fought some monsters with cool music powers i had, and found caroline! She was with a green girl that didn’t seem to partake much in fights, then we explored a bit more and found this big scary wasp queen! My singing powers weren’t working so i used one of saitama’s gloves (yes, really) to finish her off, and the last thing I remember was also punching a wall because of that. I remember it being a lot more complex and very long, but the details are already foggy to me."
