"So, what are you doing here?" you asked, looking back to the argument. "I'm following Tommy and Tubbo to make sure they don't get themselves into any shit."

"First of all, language!" Bad scolded, smacking you lightly. "But anyways, I'm here with my friend Skeppy. The one in the blue sweatshirt."

"Skeppy, huh," you repeated with a nod. "Think I've seen him around a few times."

You continued talking with Bad, effectively tuning out the argument that was gradually increasing in volume.

"And then, you won't believe what- oh my goodness, Skeppy!"

Bad ran off, chasing after his best friend, who in turn was chasing after Tommy and Tubbo with Dream. You pressed a fist to your mouth, preventing yourself from saying something you'd probably regret.

These kids are going to be the fucking death of me, you thought to yourself as you hastened after Bad.

Eventually, everything had settled down. With a bit of nudging from you, Tommy had grudgingly given Dream his items back in exchange for the latter's prized piece of leather, Spirit.

Tommy and Tubbo had gone off somewhere with hushed whispers and poorly hidden giggles, leaving you stiffly sitting at a table with Dream, Skeppy, Sapnap, and Bad.

"Well, I've dealt with enough for one day," you decided, standing up and pushing your chair back in. "I'm heading out."

The others mumbled their respective goodbyes, and you left the table.

"Hey, uh, Y/n right?"

"Yeah?" You paused walking to let the person catch up. Looking back at them, you saw a distinctive white bandana under tousled black hair. "What do you want, Sapnap?"

He awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck with a tanned hand. "I just wanted to, um, apologize about the whole war thing."

"Mhm." You waited for him to continue.

"It was, uh, a shitty thing to do," Sapnap said, pressing his hands together slightly. "I kinda just thought, y'know, that we could have a fresh start?"

You furrowed your eyebrows slightly, turning to him, and contemplated his proposition. He doesn't seem like that bad of a person.

Y/n, he kidnapped you.

But still...

Ok, fine!

"Sure." You extended a hand to Sapnap. "Clean slate."

He took it, the two of you shaking on it. You gave him a slight smile, and continued walking, not missing the extra glance he took at you.

You raised your eyebrows internally, and laughed a bit.

We'll cross that bridge when we come to it, you thought to yourself as you came up to Niki's newly built bakery.

"Y/n! What brings you over here?" Niki greeted, pausing wiping the counter down to give you a wave and warm smile.

"I heard you were starting up a new bakery and had to come check it out," you responded, returning the smile.

"This is it so far!" Niki told you with a shrug, gesturing to the homey area. "It's pretty simple right now, but I'm planning on getting new things for it once I save up enough!"

"Well, make sure to tell me if you need any help," you commented, admiring the beautiful sunset painting hung on the wall. "I'd be glad to."

Suddenly, Tommy came bursting into the shop, the ringing of the bells making both you and Niki jump slightly.

"Niki! Hello. Your fox is dead," he said, prominently out of breath.

Niki's expression immediately hardened. She took a deep breath in, releasing it slowly.

"Who did it?"
