The “I could have died!” “Oh don’t be dramatic” for dreamnoblade but have Techno be the ‘I could have died’ one because he’s let’s be honest he would.
Like maybe there’s arrows shooting at the and when they get to a safe space. Like Techno is just kinda frazzled and Dream is pumped up for this shit and like “up-top!” And Techno just gives him a withering expression and just “Why do I hang around you” and Dream just goes “Because you love me that’s why~” in a smug voice and Techno just snorts and pecks him on the cheek and Dream chases after him and they exchange quick kisses while laughing amongst themselves.
Like I wish more people put Techno in a soft comedic light bc he’s canonically a comedic character. ^^
But yeah hope you liked my lil short story or whatever but yeah! I really enjoy your dnb content keep doing what you do!! :DD
first of all, im sorry it took so long for me to work on this request!
(and thank you so much for being patient with me, anon ;;)
as for the request itself, here's a short scene i cooked up on the spot (i tried to make them sound like an old married couple, bc in a way they would fit that role.. but in a more "murder husbands" kind of way lmao) also, i may have altered some of the details in the request to fit the story better (hope you don't mind)
dnb // set post doomsday or maybe in an au where they still blew lmanberg up
The resounding explosion could be heard for miles and the impact of all the bombs detonating all at once was enough to shake the earth.
Dream was already waiting for him at their rendezvous, his cloaked figure hunched at the peak of the mountain where they first met (because Dream's sentimental like that,) with his legs dangling by the edge of the cliff nonchalantly.
"I can't believe you just left me there to fend for myself."
Dream doesn't even turn at the sound of his voice. He just kept swinging his legs as he hummed along to the tune of a song Techno hasn't heard of before, probably something he picked up from somewhere during his hiding.
"I could have died, ya know."
He hears Dream snort, but the other man made no other move to acknowledge Techno's rather overly exaggerated statement.
"Are you even listening to me?"
"Oh, don't be so dramatic." Dream says with a roll of his eyes, but the smile on his lips has no trace of annoyance, just the usual tilt of his lips that he usually reserves for Techno.
It's enough to knock the air out of his lungs if Techno's being honest.
"I'm being serious, Dream." Techno says, removing his worn out cloak as he sat next to the other man. He slowly inspects the severity of the tears, clicking his tongue when he sees a rather big hole at the side from a stray arrow to his back.
"How are you going to compensate me for this, huh?" He asks, feigning annoyance when he lifts the red, feathered trimmed cloak for Dream to see.
Dream laughs, the kind that has his entire body shaking from the force of the action. It was a sight Techno can't seem to get enough of.
"Well," Techno gauges, still trying to keep in character. "I'm expecting something in return for not only leaving me for dead, but for ruining my favorite cloak."
"Okay," Dream says in between peals of laughter. "First of all, I wouldn't have left you if I knew you were in trouble. And secondly, you literally have thirty more identical cloaks like this. I should know, I checked your inventory."
Techno lets out an audible gasp. "You looked at my inventory? Without my permission? I thought you were better than this, Dream. I truly did."
Dream's laughter only got louder until Techno can see unshed tears forming at the corner of his eyes. Instinctively, he wants to wipe at then with his thumb.
"So I risk my life for you at the cost of my beloved cloak and you chose to repay me by laughing at my face?" Techno kept at it, enjoying the adorable wheezing sound Dream was making next to him. "Am I a joke to you?"
The other man was doubled over, with his arms clutching at his stomach and he's leaning towards Techno for support, it was nothing sort of addicting– to witness Dream so unguarded, openly laughing, and it was all because of him.
"How can I make it up to you?" Dream says jokingly once he's finally calmed down. He's wiping a stray tear from his sea green eyes with a gloved finger while his white mask is temporarily lifted up to reveal his pretty face.
Techno hums, pretending to think it over while the voices are shouting all sorts of favors they wanted from the beautiful blonde man. Some where rather tame while most were asking pretty nasty favors that Techno had to ignore least he accidentally flushes from the thought of asking Dream such a request.
"I want an IOU," Techno starts, finally turning to meet Dream's gaze. There's a smirk stretching across his lips from the way Dream's entire demeanor changes at the mention of Techno's request. "No explanation and I'm free to call it anytime. Oh, and you can't say no to whatever it is I ask you to do."
"And if I say no?"
Techno quirks an eyebrow at him. They continue to stare at each other, a silent challenge until Dream sighs and relents, knowing full well Techno would pester him nonstop if he didn't.
"Fine." Dream groans, "But this is a one time thing."
"Cool." Techno says, already thrumming with unsuppressed excitement. "I'm calling the favor now."
Dream blanches, surprised. "What? Now?"
"Yup." Techno says, putting emphasis on the "p" to make it pop. "I want a kiss for a job well done."
"You can't be serious."
"Oh, but I am."
"No," Dream was already protesting, clearly confused but also flustered all the way to the tip of his ears. Techno wants to sink his teeth in his pale skin. "I'm not gonna do it."
"That's funny, because I seem to recall you agreeing to whatever request I would ask three minutes ago."
"But—"
"Are you going back on your words, Dream?" Techno pushes forward, grabbing Dream by the arm to pin him in place. "I'm disappointed." He tsked.
Dream scoffs from beneath him, but his gaze is looking everywhere but him.
"It's just one kiss," Techno urges. "I'll even settle for a kiss on the cheek."
Dream pauses, clearly surprised by Techno's insistence. He seemed to contemplate about what to do before settling with another resigned sigh.
"Alright, one kiss on the cheek. But that's it." Dream practically whispered his agreement, and if Techno wasn't so attuned to the other man, he would have missed it completely.
"Well," Techno says when Dream makes no move to make good on his agreement. "I'm waiting."
Techno hears Dream grumble a short "I hate you." And before Techno could say anything back, Dream was already leaning in to place a soft, quick kiss on his cheek.
Every atom in Techno's body is suddenly thumping from something close to joy, his heartbeat is skyrocketing out of his chest, and suddenly it's like he's free falling from the top of the world.
The voices are all screaming at him in equal parts victory while simultaneously chanting for his downfall at the hands of the pretty blonde.
Dream doesn't miss the opportunity to break free from Techno's hold due to his sudden stillness.
It takes a couple of seconds before Techno finally comes to, and when he does, Dream is already placing his mask back to hide his face, half a step from descending the mountain.
"Hey, you still haven't told me I did a good job earlier." Techno half whines, moving fast to catch up to Dream.
He hears Dream scoff and that puts another smile on Techno's face.
"Remind me why I still hang out you?"
"Because you love me." Techno answers matter of factly.
Dream groans and is about to go but Techno grabs his arm and quickly tries to make amends.
"Don't worry Dream," Techno says trying to sound as earnest as he felt. "I happen to like you too."
Dream stills from his hold. The silence that followed such a statement was heavy and full of tension that Techno did not anticipate for.
He's about to turn his previous words into a joke to make light of the situation, but Dream opens his mouth and says.
"I hate you." Surprisingly, there's no malice on his tone, just the usual annoyance with a hint of something Techno wants to associate as fondness. He hopes that it is.
"I love you too." Techno says with a smug grin, enjoying the way Dream immediately looked away, probably looking completely flustered underneath his mask.
Techno lets him leave after that without anymore interruption, content to get a rile out of the pretty man. He adds a playful "I'll see you around, Dream." only to hear Dream curing him out during his descent from the moutain.
And it's only when Dream's finally out of sight did Techno allow himself to revel in the memory of the kiss and his overwhelming emotion towards the other man.
In a way the voices were right, Dream would definitely be his undoing.
