"Now if you want to access Code you need to twist your magic like this. This is the basics and should allow you to open a control panel. We will focus on that first before I teach you what the actual numbers mean."

"...That seems like a lot. Am i even capable of that, kitty?"

"Of course. It will be slightly different from my way but you have the power to do it"

Sky was relieved Sun was in one of his calmer moods, trying to show them how to access Code but it was a slow going progress. He had expected this as this was usually an instinctive knowledge or something learned through much effort.

There were also the few who stumbled on it due to blind dumb luck but those tended to be Creators.

In his personal opinion he thought that Ink types were just so stupid that the Deities took pity on them and granted them brief access to the Code in order to ensure the type didnt just go extinct by their own idiocy.

He felt his theory was proven right by every Creator he met, eyeing the one he had to pin with his strings when they tried to lunge for Nightmare. He didnt count Opal in the lot though as they were far too devious for it, even if they tried to hide it between unassuming smiles and comments meant to distract everyone from the truth.

He never thought that Sun would be able to access Code but after a quick scan of their Code a tad unsettled he had to ask permission to even be able to access it, which wasn't natural in the slightest showing they were fully capable of it due to a few additions made to the original Code.

Whatever 404 had done unimpressed they had tampered with a babybones Code in the first place had opened up that possibility but personally thought Sun would be able to do it through sheer spite if needed to.

He was very proud of his kitten!

404 tapped his fingers on his hip in irritation, the entire situation a mess and felt it was only going to get worse. He eyed Suns condition carefully, finally able to feed them the other spectrum of apples but this was sadly far from over.

They weren't even through a third of the apples so far and Suns mood swings were growing worse, the small crater beside him proof of this as was the glitching sky. He hadnt seen anything like that before but could practically taste the Fresh influence, suddenly having a greater awareness just how dangerous the Parasites could be.

Most Fresh saw no point in doing anything major, their muted emotions and instinct to survive meant they tended to avoid anything so flashy unless it was used as a 'joke' or a distraction.

Opal had been disappointed when he listened to the whole 'sob story' of the dream twins, the rumours having made this multiverse type sound much more exciting but felt he had gotten unlucky due to picking the one multiverse where neither twin had experienced the weird 'death' shift before.

That did give him ideas to go and play with other multiverses when he had the time though, missing the adventure but first he needed to help Sun adapt. He winced when a spark of energy came off the babybones, his eyes subconsciously drifting to Dream and Nightmare when a wonderful idea came to mine.

Maybe the twins could be useful in the end.~

"This is humiliating.."

Nightmare muttered but still made sure to stay quiet, shivering as he absorbed a burst of negativity that made his aura darken to an uncomfortable degree. He hadnt felt this much power in a while and while he thought he would miss it, it was the exact opposite.

How had he ever survived on such negativity before?!

It almost felt like his bones were going to melt with the power he was absorbing. He shivered and flinched when Dream abruptly lit up like a lightbulb beside him, his tentacles recoiling from the burst of positivity.

He felt like a young child having to hold his twins hand but they had found out the hard way it hurt way worse when they weren't touching their counterpart in some ways. He was too out of it to threaten Killer when he saw a flash but he unfortunately could clearly hear the bizarre conversation happening in front of him.

"Aww. Look how cute the brothers are, snookums"

"Im going to throw you into the AntiVoid, Fungus!"

"Stop it, you are making me blush. Just like our honeymoons, right? You were so romantic~"

"I would prefer you stop talking and existing for that matter"

"You say the cutest things! Thats why i chose you my, kitty cat~"

"I will legitimately murder you!"

"You are making me blush. No wonder i chose you as my mate!"

He was stuck in the middle of the oddest round of flirting he had the misfortune to be in between and he sadly couldnt leave, being forced to help drain the excess magic the small babybones was giving off.

He would have done it anyway as he wasnt a soulless monster like some people but it was the principle of the matter. He was also glad his so-called 'zombie' status was ignored and hoped it would last but going by Inks near manic muttering on 'crazy zombies' he wasnt holding out much hope.

Sun was grumpy and his body hurt in ways he had never experienced before, this somehow more uncomfortable then when his Code decided to play the game of 'let's collapse'. The mood swings weren't helping, hating the lack of control and whimpering when another wave of magic came out of him.

He was hot, he was cold and his body couldn't decide whether it wanted to corrupt or not, feeling like a badly put together puzzle piece. He was growing sick of the taste of apples and was pretty sure he was getting some new level of trauma just due to the simple shape of an apple.

He wanted to just go when another apple was placed near his mouth but he only had to look at the thing he knew Nightmares were evil!which should have stayed dead to mentally will himself to continue. He could only imagine the horror of re-emerging using someone else's bodies, likely being forced to have a stranger's memories in your head.

He hated people enough and that situation very much sounded like it was made out of his personal nightmares. So he would force down the apples and make his body strong, not fully trusting stalker that this sort of 'fun' detail wasn't in his Code.

They hadn't known he could Fresh Poof either, so his trust in their so-called knowledge was unsteady at best.

Once he was better though he was going to make everyone regret what he was put through, a dark look in his eyes when he thought how beautiful his revenge would be once he had zero restrictions.
