⚠️TW: Cussing & mention of alcoholism ⚠️

I'm gonna be honest, I really need to shit right now. Isn't that an amazing way to start? Now, I would be doing that, if it wasn't for the new security cameras Sam as installed. What a creep.

Apparently, they're to make sure I don't 'pUlL aNyThInG' when people come to visit. As if I can do anything. I'm constantly at a disadvantage. Not only am I weak, but I am always on low health and slow because someone, *cough* *cough* Sam, doesn't know how to bake a potato.

And I would be lying if I said I wasn't the slightest bit annoyed. I don't even know if they're on, or if they are only on when visitors come to visit. It won't make sense if they're on 24/7, because why would he want to monitor me all day? For his own stupid enjoyment? No, he wouldn't do that.

Anyways, we're going to ignore that for now, and move on to finding something to do. I already made a bunch of paper birds, I refuse to go through that ever again. It was horrible, all that folding to make it even.

What can I do?

Not much really. I mean I could play around with those birds I made earlier, give them names and such. But, what am I, five? No way I'm doing that, that's just sad. . .

. . .1 Hour later. . .

Ok, so I may have gotten carried away and did exactly that. Sam can still see me on top of that. So to avoid embarrassment, I stared at them instead of full on playing with them, which, I won't lie, was very tempting. But, because I am an amazing genius, I used my very limited and disappearing self control to will myself to resist all urges.

I made twelve over all, and all of them have names with their own stories as well. I will now introduce you to the first of the bunch. . .

Candice! Despite her name being a joke and all, she is a very hard-working and loyal companion. Unlike some people. She died during Doomsday. Dun, dun, dun. So what if she's dead? Gotta kill off some characters to make a good story.

Next up is no other than, Orrie! Kind of like Oreo but not. Anyways, Orrie is both a bold and spicy character, much like Sapnap. But also as dumbfounded as George. I put black stripes on them so I can differentiate them from the others. They play a major plot in the origami bird lore. Orrie leaves the country and all their friends to go find a better place to live, but ends up dragging a whole lot of past dramas with them.

Third is, Gumbi. Gumbi is a bit of a foolish person, or, well, bird. He tends to get himself in a lot of shit he can't get out of. He also has a foot fetish, but we don't talk about that. Until, it comes to play a bit too much of a role in the lore. . . Anyways though, he eats a lot of lettuce, like, an unhealthy amount of lettuce.

After Gumbi is, James! James serves as more of a antagonist to the story. He left his wife and children to find a better life for himself. He absolutely loves peanut butter though. He tends to be quick to rage; way over his head at times, often acting selfish and greedy. Safe to say, James stays alive throughout most of the lore, if not all.

Then we have, Everett. He is a bit of a fancy boy, often seen in a suit. That's why I have taken time to, oh so graciously, draw a tie on him. He's also an alcoholic. But he is very smart, hence the suit and tie.

Half way done, we got Jerry next! He's a janitor :) that's basically it, that's all the lore he has. Unless I decide to add more to his story, but we have to have side characters. They can't all be main characters, like me obviously.

Since we are half way done with the characters, I can start to explain more about the actual storyline. But, let's explain the relationship between the 6 present characters first.

Jerry works for Everett. Though, sometimes, Jerry goes off to work temporarily for others like Gumbi or James. But Everett's and Jerry's relationship is mainly work related, and totally not damaging to the people around them in the slightest.

Jerry and James. Both got J's as beginning letters in their names. James, being selfish once again, sometimes tries to convince Jerry to work for him. But Jerry always has Everett step in  the way before James says anything too convincing.

James and Everett. They're the two main forces in the plot line. James often picking fights with Everett and his worker, while Everett tends to be the one ending in the winning position. Each person either leans to supporting Everett or James, most picking Everett for his brains. Brains vs. brawn is what you can call their relationship.

I hear the lava slowly lowering, I look up to see Sam coming across the bridge calmly. He's probably here to bring me my doing feast of one uncooked potato. But I guess beggars can't be choosers.

He steps off of the bridge slowly, and walks closer to me. He's holding a wrapped bundle of, you guessed it, a signaler unbaked potato. I stand and walk up to him.

"Hey Sam." I say, hoping to get the slightest bit of social interaction from him.

"Hey Dream, here's your food." He replies back, handing me the wrapped potato. And makes his way back to the gliding platform to leave.

I decide this is my best chance to ask him. "Are those cameras on?" I try my best not to sound suspicious.

He turns back to me, raising one eyebrow slightly. "Why do you want to know?" He questions back.

"I want to know if I can shit in privacy or not." I deadpan on him, like it was obvious.

"Oh, yeah, they're only on when guest come to visit." He answers back to my relief.

"K, bye Sam."

He doesn't respond after that, only turning back to leave. The lava slowly starts to flow back into its previous position, as he reaches the other side safely. I hope one day he doesn't.

I make my way over to the toilet. And that all you need to know.

Now that I know the cameras are off, I can pick up the birds without being too weird or embarrassed. I don feel like explaining the bird lore anymore, plus I'm getting kind of tired now. So I'm going to sleep. I'll write more when I wake up, but for now, it's time to say fair well. 

A/N
Writing chapters are way easier now that they don't have to be 3k words. This one is only 1k. I'm enjoying it a lot more than the long ones I have to edit as well. Anyways, buh bye to anyone reading this! Have a great day :D
