Four more done! Went a little more adventurous with Bug and Decoy💙
"Now remember," Gale starts, as Dream and Dove focused behind her on making their portal. "He's going to be expecting us. It's been obvious we've been working on breaking through his barrier."
"What is the point of breaking in then?" Her four eyelights turn to Nightmare, still so sour about needing assistance.
She sighs, reminding herself that he was just acting out. His family was stolen, and like every Nightmare she's helped before, he didn't know how to handle these feelings, being stolen from. "It's so he focuses on us three. You are to just rush- do NOT let your ego win. You run past him, you get to where your mate is. And get them out. Starling, Dove, and Dream got the boys."
"And I've got Nix." She growls, tone final.
Behind her, the portal had started to gather energy. Dove scoffed and glanced over. "Honey, no one wants that. You can have him." Earning themself another disgruntled glower from their counterpart.
A week was far too long with this flirty, flighty, rather airheaded version of himself.
He could feel his Old Man Age creeping up on him, despite Dove supposedly being 500 years older than himself.
But that doesn't matter for long. Soon the portal grows. energy nearly pushing him and Dove over as it expands. "Nightingale! It's open! Hurry, everyone!" He calls out to the group.
"Right!" She readies her scythes and motions them forward, through the portal. The Dreams slipping through before the energy could become too much.
In the realm of Phoenix, bathed in golden sunset colors sat a white stoned palace with gold trimmings.
And Phoenix waiting before them with help.
"Dearest sister and guests~!"
<-. first .->
While Dove and Dream practice to open a strong enough portal, Gale watches on a little too... murdery.
She can't help that Dove is her sibling essentially...
Enjoi babby phoenix while I procrastinate finish the finale \ o /

I saw that you wouldn’t mind answering that last ask but with the outcodes lol
How would the outcodes react to an SO offering their soul to them?
Starling- Baffled. You want them to have your soul? They're unsure if they could take such an offering.
Dove- S/O might have to convince them, as their first reaction is to deflate and laugh and go 'of course'. They're used to a lot of people *thinking* they want to give them their soul.
Gull- Honestly isn't sure what to do with this. He pauses and his smile drops and he is just, confused. What does he do with this? While his own soul glitches as he tries to work out his feelings.
Pigeon- Startled and tries to make s/o put it away. He's unsure how he tricked you into thinking he deserves your soul but please! Hide it before Dire sees!
Dire- Free Real Estate. Possession Time™️
Decoy- Gives a sad smile, as he doesn't have one to offer in return. The gesture isn't lost on him though.
Ducky- Doesn't know how to feel. But if s/o is someone close to him he'll keep tabs on them. And when their time comes, he'll slip a fragment of their soul into a doll to keep. He knows Decoy and Ibis would help him with it.
Shrike- Tells s/o off for bringing out such a vulnerable and important part of themself. But, he'd be touched, in a gruff protective way.
Dal- Baffled and makes sure Dire isn't around, but to be that close with him, he'd most likely accept with a shy voice.
Ibis- Clicks their tongue and gives a gentle reminder that they will come to collect, just not right now.
Ber- Scolds slightly, but mostly because he's upset with himself and his limitations. He can't BE there for s/o and most likely, he can't touch them... It's basically teasing the poor gate keeper.
Bug- Wishes he could give his to s/o too. The best he can do is kiss the screen he's stuck behind.
Nix- 'Thank you~ Such a good pet you are!' And readily marks it.
Gale- Unsure, self doubting, and might withdraw for a moment. But give her time to think, and she might accept.
Berries- It has not a clue what the fuck to do with a soul that's not a skeleton monsters. It tries to possess the soul.
Chimera- 'FOR MEEEEE? :D' Consumes.
Painted- A lot like Decoy, he's kind of sad and appreciates the gesture.
